Hi All,

Is anybody else a little wound up that Apple still haven't released an iOS 6 update for the iPhone Configuration Utility for OS X? The Windows version is now at 3.6.1 while the Mac version is at 3.5.0. I use this daily to collect Console logs etc from an iDevice and it's really beginning to suck to have to use the Windows version for some tasks.

Was just wondering what the community thought about this and what people think of the Apple Configurator as a replacement for iPCU?

Thanks

I use the Windows version and havn't seen any issues using it on iOS6

No issues with the Windows version, it supports the new iOS6 MDM Commands etc. I was referring to the Mac version, which doesn't support the new commands as Apple would like everybody to use the Configurator. iPCU for the Mac is only useful for collecting Console log information now.

perhaps iPhone engineers use Windows.... :shiftyninja:

Some MDM Admins do, not sure why, MDM + Apple = Use a Mac right?!

Good news. There is iPCU app on iOS platform already. Checkout this app on Apples app store. You can do pretty much all the profile provisioning tasks in this app plus you will get a benefit of deploying your profiles by Email, FTP or even Dropbox.

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent

      A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com AI companies often rely on readily available internet content to train their chatbots and provide users with instant answers. This method of AI training is fast and relatively inexpensive, but using a website’s content without permission or compensation is not something publishers like to see, and this is exactly why Microsoft and OpenAI are now being sued. As reported by Bloomberg, a group of publishers that collectively own nearly 400 newspapers has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft. The coalition argues that the two companies scraped their content to build AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Copilot without paying any compensation. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues that while AI products have generated billions of dollars in market value using publishers’ work, none of that value has been shared with the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking statutory damages and injunctive relief for alleged copyright infringement and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. “Defendants systematically and secretly crawled the Publishers’ websites—including content behind paywalls and other access restrictions—and copied the Publishers’ articles, stories, and other original works onto their own servers without authorization,” the complaint states. The publishers also described the AI boom as a “death knell for local journalism” if AI companies that scrape content for free are not held accountable. Former New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and his law firm, Platkin LLP, are representing the publishers. “Our models empower innovation, are trained on publicly available data, and are grounded in fair use,” OpenAI spokesperson Drew Pusateri told Bloomberg. This is not the first lawsuit involving the unauthorized use of publishers’ content by AI firms, but it is one of the largest coalitions ever formed against the free use of content by AI chatbots. In 2024, OpenAI and Microsoft also faced a similar lawsuit from eight newspapers that claimed AI products were benefiting from their content without permission.
