Apple has released macOS Catalina 10.15, the latest version of their operating system (OS). ICTS has successfully completed product suitability testing to ensure that this OS does not conflict with existing software already in use on campus. You can now install macOS Catalina 10.15 on your machines.
Exciting new features
A range of new applications – Apple Music, Apple TV, and Apple Podcasts – replaces iTunes. The iTunes store, however, is still available via Apple Music. Additionally, your iPad apps can now be added to your Mac too.
One of the most talked-about updates of this version is the ability to extend your Mac’s display to your iPad so you can work on two screens simultaneously.
