The latest version of Apple’s mobile platform, iOS 8.1.2, is far more stable and refined than Apple’s early iOS 8 releases, one of which was so bad that it temporarily bricked tens of thousands of iPhones, leaving them completely unusable for a period of time.

Was "The Interview" the perfect cover? The Federal Bureau of Investigation conducted an extensive investigation into the recent massive Sony hack. Following the conclusion of that investigation, the FBI felt that its evidence pointing to hackers with ties to North Korea was so strong that President Obama publicly pinned responsibility on the Eastern nation.

People all over the world tried to enjoy some online gameplay on their new PlayStation and Xbox consoles on Christmas Day, but they couldn't. Millions more who already had video game consoles and needed a quick escape from their families on Thursday also couldn't connect to the PlayStation Network or Xbox Live.

Let’s be honest for a moment: there are times when you would prefer that the people in your life don’t see the things you’ve searched for on Facebook. Maybe it’s that ex-boyfriend or girlfriend you can’t help but Facebook-stalk, or perhaps it’s that One Direction fan page you refuse to follow but can’t stop checking.

Both next-generation consoles had great years in 2014, moving millions of units and gaining value from dozens of great new games. Gamers had plenty to love this past year, and one of the best perks Microsoft and Sony have offered this year are the free games they give away each month.

If you’ve been living under a rock for the past month or so, there’s something you need to know: Sony Pictures Entertainment was hacked. Just about everyone with an Internet connection or a TV is aware of the Sony hack — we even know exactly how the hackers broke into Sony’s internal network — but there are still plenty of things that people don’t know.

Black Friday has come and gone, and Cyber Monday feels like a distant memory. The busiest shopping season of the year is finally behind us, but does that mean the best sale prices of the season are a thing of the past as well? Well guess what — if you thought big sales were over and done just because Christmas is almost here, think again.

Plenty of studies have shown that iPhone users upgrade their handsets more often than other smartphone users. But what should you do with that old iPhone once you have upgraded to a new one?

Christmas week is finally here, and that means two things. First, you have one or more family gatherings to look forward to. Second, you’re probably broke. Shopping for gifts for friends and family is a huge drain on our bank accounts every holiday season, but it’s worth it, of course.

Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) in identifying those implicated in the child sex trafficking activities of Jeffrey Epstein, the late financier and child sex offender.

Apple’s iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are positively gorgeous smartphones. They feature sleek designs and big, bright, beautiful displays. The new iPhone models for 2014 are also disasters waiting to happen, thanks to their slippery aluminum housings that have a tendency to slide out of users’ hands at the worst possible times.

When you were a child, did you ever dream of having some of the same abilities as the X-Men? The odds are pretty good that you’ll never be able to manipulate metal like Magneto or control people’s minds like Professor Charles Xavier, but an incredible new gadget that is shockingly affordable will give you the ability to throw balls of fire just like Pyro.

When Apple ousted Google Maps from iOS back in 2012, it wouldn’t have been such a big deal… but Apple’s own mapping solution that replaced it was an absolute disaster

Sometimes when it comes to the look of the user interface on your smartphone or tablet, the simplest changes can make the biggest difference. Adding round icons like the ones pictured above is a perfect example; the look of the home screen is transformed thanks to that one simple change.

Apple’s new iPhone 6 Plus is much more popular that some pundits thought it would be. In fact, it took less than a month for the handset to become the most popular phablet in America by a fairly wide margin. The iPhone 6 Plus has the biggest display ever seen on an iPhone, and it also packs more pixels than any other iPhone before it.

Apple's OS X 10.10 Yosemite software introduced so many new features that users will still be trying to learn them several months after installing the update. But OS X also has some old features that you might not know about. In fact, there's a hidden paint program on your Mac computer that has been sitting right under your nose this whole time, and a recent pose will show you how easy it is to find.

I’m not just speaking of the Jeffrey Epstein files, although they are part of it. We’ve all seen and experienced things over these years that (at least to me) would have been nearly inconceivable before.

Retailers across the country aren’t done trying to make this year’s holiday shopping season bigger than any other year, and Walmart’s massive Cyber Monday sale will certainly help matters. After offering some of the biggest savings we saw on Black Friday, Walmart has now kicked off another big sale for Cyber Monday. With huge savings on everything spanning from HDTVs […]

Back at the start of the year after Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S5, I suggested that smartphone fans might be in for another boring year in 2014. In some ways, 2014 was boring; we really didn't see anything that introduced truly novel or revolutionary new features added to smartphones this year. But phones still progressed in 2014, growing faster, sleeker and more powerful than they have ever been before, and there were some terrific phones that launched this year.

Grijalva’s delayed confirmation to the post has drawn attention primarily due to her commitment to provide the final signature for a discharge petition to require the DOJ to publicly release files on the case of billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein

Maybe she’s terrified that she’ll meet the same fate as Epstein.

Apple's OS X 10.10 Yosemite update was released to the public last month, and it was a massive update. The new software featured a big user interface overhaul that helped modernize the look of OS X a bit, and it also added a number of great new features such as redesigned Spotlight search and Continuity.

Ghislaine Maxwell, the Jeffrey Epstein associate accused of sex trafficking, attends her trial near an image of Epstein on a screen in a courtroom sketch in New York City, N.Y., on Dec. 2, 2021.

Eventually, Jane filed two lawsuits, one against Maxwell and one against the estate of Epstein. She had also spoken to the FBI about Epstein in 2019.

Robert Epstein: We’ve made more progress in the past year and a half than in the previous eight years combined.

The world has Android 5.0 fever, and while most Android device owners will have to wait until next year at the earliest to get Lollipop on their phones and tablets, enthusiastic Google fans don’t have to wait another minute. We told you earlier this week that near-final versions of Android 5.0 Lollipop had been made available for some Android […]

Epstein and Maxwell allegedly sexually assaulted her older sister, Mara, in Ohio, according to court filings in a separate case. Maxwell is accused of recruiting and grooming girls to be abused by Epstein between 1994 and 2004.

Private islands in the Caribbean owned by Jeffrey Epstein have been listed for sale, a lawyer for Epstein's estate has confirmed.

Features like audio messaging, the new QuickType keyboard and Apple’s Continuity functionality are all awesome additions to iOS, but of course there is still plenty missing from Apple’s mobile platform. Now that Google’s Android 5.0 Lollipop software is official, it’s time to take a look at a few key features found in Google’s latest and greatest that are sadly still absent in iOS.
