Apple Killing iWork.com Effective July 31

An old PR saw sound out if you have high-risk news , release it on Friday when it ’s less potential to cause a bustle . So perhaps that ’s why Apple harbinger it ’s killing off iWork.com on , you guessed it , this retiring Friday

Apple sent out an email notice to its iWork.com drug user , informing them to get their written document off of the iWork site , and bump off any linkup or implant documents elsewhere on the Web by July 31 . Apparently , it is planning to not only to stop support , but also actually take out all the document exploiter have uploaded .

I nearly missed this message because I ’ve set out Gmail set up to filter notifications like these . Here ’s a case for check that folder periodically . From the email I received :

[ T]he iWork.com public genus Beta service will no longer be useable . As of July 31 , 2012 , you will no longer be able-bodied to access your documents on the iWork.com site or view them on the web . We recommend that you sign in to iWork.com before July 31 , 2012 , and download all your documents to your information processing system .

Applerefers its iWork.com user to this support text file , which fundamentally just tells you to get your document before they ’re lead .

But the large issue that occurs to me is that this is a really bad move by Apple . If it wants people to utilise iCloud , it need to make them comfy with cloud store . The transition from MobileMe to iCloud was bad enough . But deleting all the files off its former cloud solution is even high-risk . Not a groovy way to build trust that we can enumerate on your new solution , Apple . [ Apple ]
