HTC committed to OS updates for the HTC One for Windows
If you use the HTC One (M8) for Windows, the question if the company behind it will give you Windows 10 may be heavy on your mind. HTC has a mixed record with updates in the past, so skepticism for some in the community seems warranted.
When it comes to the flagship HTC One for Windows, the company is stating on Twitter that users can expect software updates for 2 years after its launch. Since the One was released last August of 2014, a Windows 10 update certainly seems reasonable.
Sprint’s Wi-Fi calling now supported on select iPhone models with iOS 8.3
With the arrival of iOS 8.3, Sprint is rolling out Wi-Fi calling to iPhone customers using an iPhone 5c or later.
Sprint announced that customers running the recently-released iOS 8.3 update are now able to use the carrier’s Wi-Fi calling feature. The same capabilities came to customers on U.K. carrier EE earlier today. A new Wi-Fi Calling option will appear in the Settings app on iOS after you update to iOS 8.3 to let you switch the feature on.
Wi-Fi calling allows you to make calls over your Wi-Fi network instead of a cellular connection. Sprint’s Wi-Fi calling on the iPhone is supported on devices from the iPhone 5c to the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

How to find your old iPhoto and Aperture events, stacks and projects in Photos for OS X
Photos may be a great upgrade for iPhoto and casual Aperture users but, after you migrate, you might need some help finding your old pictures.
Anything previously organized into events in iPhoto or stacks, projects, or events in Aperture gets brought over to Photos during setup, of course. The stacks, projects, or events themselves, however, are converted into folders. That means they’re all the same now, but it also means they’re really easy to find.
How to locate your old Aperture stacks, project, and events in Photos
- Launch Photos on your Mac
- Go to View > Show Sdebar in the menu, or press alt + cmd + s
You’ll find your stacks, projects, and events there as folders.

How to search for your pictures and videos in Photos for OS X
Rather than scrolling through all your pictures and videos, search can be a quick way to find just exactly what you want.
You can use search in Photos for OS X almost like Spotlight to filter through your library based on the year, month, and/or day a picture or video was taken, the place it was taken in, who appears in it (if you’re using faces), and the text that appears in the keywords or even filename. There aren’t any advanced search or boolean options — you can use smart folders for something closer akin to that — but you can stack terms and that means there’s still plenty of power inside that little box.
How to search for your pictures and videos in Photos for OS X
- Launch Photos on your Mac.
- Enter the terms you want to search for. You can enter multiple terms, e.g. “San Francisco Serenity March 9 2015 apple”.
- Choose the picture or video you want from the list Photos populates.
How to use smart albums as “advanced search” in Photos for OS X
The smart folder system in Photos for OS X is really clever and allows for a lot of options. If you need something more complex than standard search, especially if you think you might run it even semi frequently, a smart folder might be a good alternative.
