If you're like me, you have thousands of photos on your iOS device and Mac.

But what if you wanted to export one or more photos into another app that does not support drag and drop? You must EXPORT that photo to your desktop and then import it into a project. This tip will show you how to export a photo (or photos) to your desktop.

How to export a photo to your Desktop:

Go into Photos.
Select a photo that you wish to export.
Select File > Export.
Another window opens asking you what format you wish to export the photo in.
Another window opens asking where to SAVE the exported photo.
When ready, click OK to export and save it to the Folder of your choice.
That's it.

Bonus Tip:

To select multiple photos, click on the first photo, hold the [Shift] key, and then click on each photo you wish to export.

iPhone SE 4 allegedly canceled, perhaps over Apple’s 5G modem failures

Apple wanted to release an iPhone SE 4 in 2024 as a test bed for its in-house modem chip, but development failures may have led to the cancellation of the budget iPhone.

The rumored iPhone SE 4 was expected to be released within a few years, and would resemble the iPhone XR. However, a new report casts doubt on the next iPhone SE making it through the production pipeline.

A new report from supply chain analyst and leaker Ming-Chi Kuo suggests Apple has canceled the iPhone SE 4 rather than just delayed it. The new iPhone SE was allegedly going to use Apple's in-house baseband chip first, but now Qualcomm will likely continue to be Apple's sole supplier.

Apple has been reportedly working on its own 5G modem, or baseband chip, for its iPhone lineup. It was meant to go in the iPhone 15, but failed to reach the necessary specs in time for consideration.

Apple Watch saves 16 Year Old Skiers Life

Marcella Lee, anchor on San Diego’s CBS 8 news channel, has told viewers how a recent skiing trip to Colorado almost ended in death her son, but, thankfully, her 16-year-old son’s Apple Watch revealed potentially fatal high-altitude pulmonary edema, saving his life.

“By nighttime when I checked on my son, I noticed his lips were a bit blue and so were his fingertips,” she continued. “It was dark and it was late and I couldn’t really tell if I was seeing things, if he really was blue.”

“And suddenly I remembered my Apple Watch has a feature that measures oxygen saturation,” says Lee. “I quickly put the watch on my son and as those seconds counted down, what popped up was frightening 66% oxygen saturation.”

Lee took her son to the local ER… Her son was treated and “within minutes” he was recovering.

“I asked the medical team in Colorado what would have happened had I waited until the next morning, because I thought about just letting him sleep it off,” says Lee. “They say that eventually [with a] sustained oxygen of only 66%, [he] could have gone into a coma.”
