Archipad 1.2 released for iPad - Sketch and Doodle to Scale - Published on 02/20/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

UK based Urban Design Limited today announces Archipad 1.2 for iPad. Archipad is a scale aware sketching program that is an ideal tool for architects, interior and product designers. Archipad mimics how architects & designers have been designing using traditional tools but now the same creativity can be achieved on your iPad. Effortlessly zoom in and out to develop specific areas, rotate layers or the whole drawing to tryout different options. Version 1.2 changes the app's purchasing policy.

London, United Kingdom - Urban Design Limited today announces the release and the immediate availability of Archipad 1.2 for iPad. Archipad is a scale aware sketching program that is an ideal tool for Architects, interior and product designers.

Use Archipad as you would use a tracing pad. Sketch, overlay it, and sketch further to develop your ideas. Archipad mimics how architects and designers have been designing using traditional tools but now the same creativity can be achieved on your iPad. Being on an iPad, it can now go much further. As well as everything being to scale, you can zoom in and out to develop specific areas, rotate layers or the whole drawing to tryout different options or share your design with others or export them to a CAD application to prepare working drawing.

Archipad is more akin to a painting app than a drawing program. this means that shapes and freehand lines, can be added, partially erased and more shapes and lines added, building up the drawing, similar to a traditional sketching methods. We feel this to be also more appropriate to the iPad as one interacts with it in a much quicker and direct way than a standard computer that uses a mouse. Also as one uses a finger to draw on the iPad, it would be difficult to recreate the levels of accuracy that is need in a CAD program.

The target market of Archipad is not only the professional Architects and designers but as it is simple enough to use, it can include the amateur space planner, armed with an estate agent's plans. Anybody wanting to buy or rent a property wants to explore how they can either move walls around or lay out furniture. With Archipad it would be simple to import the plan, set the scale, erase some walls, draw some new ones and place some furniture. These initial ideas then can be communicated more clearly with others.

The price structure of Archipad also reflects its diverse potential use. Its free to download and use for a small project. A student or a house buyer can purchase a subscription for a short interval and longer for a professional. Adopting the subscription model guarantees that the latest features are added to the app as soon as they become available, and the app can be activated and reactivated whenever it is needed.

What is new in this version:
In version 1.2 we have changed our purchasing policy. We have replaced our 1 year subscription with full purchase. All existing customers with 1 year subscriptions, will automatically be upgraded to full purchase. We have still maintained our 3 month subscriptions for those that would like to use the app for short period of time, like student or a house buyer that would like to explore how they can modify or decorate a property.

List of features:
* Measuring lines to either set scale or measure distances on a drawing
* Multiple layers
* Shape and freehand drawing tools
* Duplicate a shape multiple time
* Zoom in and out without losing drawing quality
* Rotate or move a layer or the whole drawing
* Duplicate or flip layers
* Create layers from other drawings to generate different views of a project
* Scaled grids including isometric and axonometric grids
* Guide lines that can be subdivided equally or into specific distances
* Symbols; use predefined set of symbols or create your own from the content of a layer and share it between your projects
* Export and generate blueprints up to A3 size, at any scale, without losing drawing quality

With the advent of touch orientated interface in iPad, a whole new approach to interacting with technology has been created. Archipad, which has been designed by a practicing Architect, brings the fun of the creative process to the iPad, and by borrowing features from CAD programs it becomes an intuitive app for all designers.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
* 7.0 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Archipad 1.2 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Austin based CodeLathe has launched Tonido for iOS 7.0, a new app update that will allow users to automatically backup their photos and videos from iDevices to their computers running Tonido Personal Cloud software. Instantly open files, folders, pictures or videos that are stored on your computer from your iOS device with just one click. This new feature is offered completely free to customers and there is no storage limits or yearly subscription fees.

Austin, Texas - CodeLathe, the leader in personal cloud products and services, has launched a new app update that will allow users to automatically backup their photos and videos from iDevices to their computers running Tonido Personal Cloud software. This new feature is offered completely free to customers and there is no storage limits or yearly subscription fees.

Tonido offers users secure access to their home computer's entire collection of documents, photos, music and videos from anywhere without having to upload it to a public cloud service. The self-hosted cloud solution allows users to view documents, play music, browse photos, watch videos and share files without ever sending personal data through unsecured mediums like email, social media platforms or storing in Public Online services. Individuals begin by downloading the free Tonido server app on their desktop and the free mobile app onto their iOS device.

Employing smart LAN switching technology to use gigabit access speed within home LAN networks, the app safely connects users to the documents stored on their desktop in seconds. Users can also access their files via Wi-Fi or 3G mobile networks, automatically backup their photos and videos from their iPhone/iPad to their Tonido personal cloud, and download files for offline viewing.

IoT Design Shop Announces iBeacon Development Kit - Published on 02/20/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The IoT Design Shop at Finger Food Studios is pleased to announce the public release of their iBeacon Development Kit. The package is aimed developers looking to experiment and establish expertise with iBeacon and related Bluetooth LE technologies. Fully-configurable, the kit includes a AAA-cell powered development beacon as well as access to a series of tutorials and source code for harnessing iBeacon in iOS Apps. The kit can be purchased today at iotdesignshop.com.

Vancouver, Canada - The IoT Design Shop at Finger Food Studios is pleased to announce the public release of their iBeacon Development Kit. This kit is designed to aid developers looking to experiment and establish expertise with iBeacon and related Bluetooth LE technologies.

The kit includes an AAA-cell powered development beacon which is fully configurable to allow unique iBeacon ID's and custom power and broadcast characteristics. Additionally, tutorials are provided which demonstrate the Bluetooth LE systems for configuring the beacon as well as reference code for Apps that can harness the iBeacon protocol in iOS.

According to Trent Shumay, CTO of the IoT Design Shop - "Our goal for the product is to level the playing field and provide a concrete example of a reference platform for developers that may not have access to the hardware or firmware infrastructure to create iBeacon devices for themselves". However, Shumay also noted, "It's certainly possible to deploy these beacons in a production environment as well for simple applications in retail, automation, or security".

The beacons retail for $49.99 CDN and are available in a variety of colours via iotdesignshop.com. A minimized production version of the beacon is scheduled for release in April 2014 to allow developers to streamline their production deployments. The production beacons will be firmware-compatible with the Development Kit beacon so that all research and work done against the kit can be directly deployed to production.

Previously, the IoT Design Shop also announced the ConnectionMaker Indoor Location System which is currently being field-tested for a Summer 2014 launch.

The app update also includes several bug fixes and enhancements. Along with the acclaimed support for most remote desktop standards including VNC, RDP, Screen Sharing, SSH and Telnet.

On Macs, setup is ultra-simple using the optional RemoterFusion app. Port-forwarding and/or dynamic DNS is no longer needed in order to establish connections from outside the computer's network. This also provides sound redirection, which allows listening to music tracks, or any sound playing remotely on the computer from the iOS device. RemoterFusion is included 100% free with Remoter Pro.

Local session set-up is simple, all the computers from the WiFi network are found using both the Bonjour and NetBIOS standards. The user then taps on the desired connection, and all queried information such as computer name, IP address, service port, and more auto-populates the set-up screen. The user then only needs to enter the VNC password to complete setup. A button labeled "Advanced"; reveals many useful advanced options, like color depth, server scaling setting, compression level and more.

The RDP support allows connecting to Windows computers that include an RDP server (Remote Desktop Protocol). This allows connecting to these machines without having to install a server, as is the case with VNC. Even the new Windows 8 Consumer Preview is supported!

Via the SSH function, the app allows users to establish secure and tunneled VNC, or RDP connections to their computer desktop. This also gives users the ability of establishing terminal connections to any SSH server. Featuring full terminal control, including special keys such as Control, Alt, F1-F14. Terminal support implements font foreground and background color, a terminal buffer, and clicking. SSH authentication includes both passwords and private/public key support. A fully featured SSH Key manager allows users to create SSH keys using RSA or DSA. Passphrases can also be set, and independent SSH keys can be used for each SSH session.

Remoter Pro gives users the ability of create up to five TCP tunnels (via SSH). The tunnels can then be accessed while the app is in the background by any other app on the iOS device. Providing a VPN connection to the SSH server. Background connections can stay active for a full ten minutes.

The Telnet function enables users to connect to server computers using the Telnet protocol. Like with SSH, the app provides full color support, a terminal buffer, and special keys.

Both SSH and Telnet allow for selection of text which is then synchronized with the device's pasteboard, and can then be pasted within the application, or into any other app.

The app features a connection selection interface that is controlled by swiping on the iOS device to graphically select the desired connection. On the iPad, a wholly new interface, which features a grid of servers that can be filtered is presented. A "Session Selection" screen is also available. This option presents a list view of all available connections. Sessions can be sorted by name, type or usage.

Wake-on-LAN support is also built-in, when the server session is setup using Bonjour or NetBIOS, the MAC address is automatically populated. Otherwise the field is provided to allow the user to populate it manually. Wake-on-LAN can then be sent either from the main screen of the app, or via the session selection screen.

Macros can also be created and run. Macro support is included for VNC, RDP, SSH and Telnet sessions, and a Macros manager allows for renaming and deleting of existing macros.

The app is extremely configurable, in the "Remoter Config" screen users can select from a variety of options to best suit their needs. Options such as trackpad type and acceleration, visual clicks, international keyboard support for OS X are included.

While connected to a server, the app supports both landscape and portrait mode, full-screen mode, different pre-set zoom levels, along with a smooth pinch-to-zoom interface. Pasteboard synchronization is also supported for all connection modes. Full external keyboard support, either USB or Bluetooth is also provided.

Convert64 - File Identification and Base 64 conversion made easy - Published on 02/20/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

45RPM Software today is proud to announce Convert64 2.1.0. Have you ever needed to find out what type a file really is? Perhaps the file has lost its extension - and the contents are now a mystery to you. Have you ever needed to encode or decode base 64 files? Maybe you want to embed image data into the HTML of your website. If the answer to either of these questions is 'Yes' then Convert64 is the tool you've been waiting for!

London, United Kingdom - Convert64, from the developer of Locamatic, MailRaider and MailRaider Pro, is now available. Convert64 may be the most flexible base64 encoder ever written - and it's available at the bargain price of $2.99.

Have you ever needed to find out what type a file really is? Perhaps the file has lost its extension - and the contents are now a mystery to you. Is it a jpeg? Is it a zip? Is it a Word document? Nobody knows - until now. Convert64, when running on Mac OS X 10.7 'Lion' or newer, can tell you.

Have you ever needed to encode or decode base 64 files? Maybe you want to embed image data into the HTML of your website. Convert64 can do this too - and it can resize your images, or change their format, at the same time. You can even preview the changes to the image as you make them. As if this wasn't enough, Convert64 can also wrap your base64 encoded data in CSS or HTML.

Convert64 is nothing if not flexible - you can even decide how long you want each line of your base 64 encoded data to be, and whether you would like it to be padded or not. You can choose to apply compression to your file (in advance) and you can even base64 encode entire folder or bundle structures. Convert64 will even estimate the final size of the base64 encoded data before you start the conversion process.

Attention to detail hasn't been spared in the Convert64 user interface either - Convert64 is fully Retina display compatible (no jagged edges here) and it has full help, including tips on how to use the generated base64 data in your web projects. If you're stuck for an answer, check the help files. If you're still none the wiser then explore the 45RPM Software forums and start a discussion about your problem. If neither of these facilities answer your questions then just send an email to 45RPMSoftware support. Whichever way you slice it, 45RPMSoftware has got you covered.

Of course, all 45RPM Software benefits from exceptional support - you'll never be left feeling forgotten or unloved. If you've got a problem with any 45RPM Software applications then let us know and it will be our pleasure to help you out.

Convert64 includes all of this functionality as standard. There are no hidden costs in the form of costly in-app upgrades.

System Requirements:
* Requires a 64bit Mac (most Intel Macs built in 2007 or newer)
* Running Mac OS X 10.6 or newer (some functionality requires 10.7 or newer)
