Everyone makes mistakes, even Apple.

When the company released iOS 8.1 last week, there was a bug in the iPhone and iPad operating system that disabled cellular service for as many as 50,000 users. Apple moved fast to release a patch, and on Tuesday Apple VP Greg Joswiak apologized for the mistake.

"We don't make many of them, when we do make them we recover very quickly," said Joswiak on during an on-stage interview at the Code/Mobile conference.

"By the way, our software updates, as you know, get extraordinarily quickly adopted," he added, in a subtle dig at the fragmented Android OS.

He attributed the error to an issue with the way the software was sent over servers and not the iOS itself.

This isn't the first or last slip-up to hit the company, but how it was handled shows howApple (AAPLTech30) has changed over the years. In the '90s, the company was still struggling and had its share of major missteps.

"Some of it was trying to make cheap products that were trying to chase market share instead of trying to chase experience," said Joswiak. "You make that mistake once in your life, you're not going to make it twice."

In recent years, Apple's approach to perfecting its users' experiences has meant letting other companies make the early mistakes with new technology. Instead of coming out with the newest technology, Apple will pour more time, money and resources into being the best.

"We have this belief that we don't have the necessarily be the first to do something, we have to be the first to do it well," said Joswiak

The Apple Watch is not the first smartwatch, but it is still one of the most heavily anticipated. Apple was pretty late to the mobile payments game, and one of the last hardware manufacturers to adopt the NFC wireless communication technology. But one million credit cards were activated on Apple Pay in the tool's first three days. The company is working with three major credit card networks and six of the largest banks.

The rumor mill loves to speculate about Apple's next big ideas. Perhaps it's as easy as looking at what other companies are already doing, poorly.

他歸因於錯誤的問題,與軟件發送過來的服務器,而不是本身的iOS的方式。
這不是第一個或最後一個不慎打到了公司,但它是如何處理的說明了如何蘋果 (AAPL,Tech30)已經改變了多年。在上世紀90年代,該公司仍在努力並且有它的份額主要失策。
“有一些是試圖讓那名試圖追逐試圖追逐體驗的市場份額,而不是廉價產品,”Joswiak說。“你在你的生活中犯類似的錯誤一次,你不會做了兩遍。”
近年來,蘋果的做法,以完善其用戶體驗也意味著讓其他公司進行新技術的早期錯誤。而是走出了最新的技術,蘋果將傾注更多的時間,金錢和資源投入是最好的。
“我們有這樣的信念,我們沒有必要率先做一些事情,我們必須首先把它做好,”Joswiak說:

謠言喜歡猜測蘋果的下一個大思路。也許是因為在看什麼其他的公司都已經在做,不好容易。
