Apple, at this point, has revealed scores and scores of iPhones, but the craze of having an iPhone in hand does not seem to be dying down. It is only palpable in the fact that even when it has been more than three decades since the first Apple event, the \u201cMacintosh event\u201d in 1984, more and more people head out to these events or at least stream it to see what else is new in the market. The history of Apple Events rightfully underscores just how much of a cultural phenomenon iOS has become. As we await the next September Apple Week, let\u2019s take a look at the Apple Event evolution and what has unfolded in front of us so far.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How it Started – The History of Apple Events Timeline\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

1984- How Apple IIc, Macintosh Shaped the History of Apple Events<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Macintosh Event- 1984- The first time when Apple gathered in Cupertino, the Macintosh was revealed to the shareholders. The next time, the Macintosh was back at the Boston Computer Society, less than a week after the first one. Then came the historical Apple II Forever Event in April of the same year, when Apple released the Apple IIc. The firm debuted the Apple II computer. Since then, Apple has staged hundreds of events to announce new hardware and software upgrades.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

1997- MacWorld Expo and NeXT Integration<\/span><\/h3>\n

In 1997, Gi Amelio announced the famous integration of NeXT software which had object-oriented programming and a graphical user interface that became quite popular back in the days of computer innovation. Apple had just had an acquisition of NeXT, which brought about the integration into its operating systems. This was shortly after the lush affair of taking Apple up from the shackles of deep losses and drop in stakes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Amelio was still reeling from the losses and had taken in advances to move on from the mistakes of the past of keeping core technologies internal and heeding less mind to user feedback and responses. How much that took into effect, only the story of the history of Apple weeks ahead would tell.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

1998- The First Apple Studio Display<\/span><\/h3>\n
\"Apple
Apple Studio Display | savewithnerds<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The 1998 seminar was held in the avenues of New York, where Steve Jobs introduced the first ever Apple Studio Display. The Studio Display was the first monitor from Apple that deviated from the standard CRT technology and moved on to the latest LCD screens. For six extra ye\u00adars, the line thrived until it was discontinued in 2004.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Apple Computer, Inc. launched the\u00ad Apple Studio Display, a range of LCD and CRT non-widescre\u00aden monitors, in 1998.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Then arrived the event in May 1998. That’s when Steve Jobs pre\u00adsented the first e\u00adver iMac at the Flint Cente\u00adr.<\/span><\/p>\n

1999- The Introduction of iBook with Wireless Networking\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

The next stop in our chronicle of the history of Apple Events is the 1999 Macworld Event, when Steve Jobs introduced the newly rebranded Power Macintosh G3, and previewed the new Mac OS X Server in his keynote speech.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At the next Macworld Expo in New York, Apple launched its famous iBook which had optional wireless networking. It was a relatively cheaper alternative to Apple\u2019s previously high-end models and had fewer specifications to accommodate costs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In late Summer, Steve Jobs was still on a roll when he introduced the upcoming upgraded\u00a0 PowerPC G4 chip, the accompanying Power Mac G4, and the first Apple Cinema Display which had a staggering 22-inch LCD display.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you think that was all for the 1999 chapter of the history of Apple events, the company came up with the all-new Mac OS 9, iMac DV, and iMovie.<\/span><\/p>\n

2000- The new \u201cAqua\u201d User Interface<\/span><\/h3>\n

San Francisco was the next landing in the history of Apple Events. The company unveiled its brand new \u201cAqua\u201d UI, which was based on a water theme, and had drop-like components along with reflection effects and more. The Quartz Graphics Engine for Mac OS X\u00a0 was also introduced which was used to send instructions to the graphics card. The first version was announced to be released next year, but a preview was shown to the audience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This year is particularly eventful in the history of Apple Events because it was when Steve Jobs was promoted as the CEO of Apple.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Later that year, at the Macworld Expo in 2000, Apple launched even more new displays that had ADC, Apple Display Connector.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2001- The Updates on the Mac OS X\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

In 2001 at the Macworld Expo in San Francisco, Apple unveiled the new Titanium PowerBook G4 that had Velocity Engine up to 500 MHz, a 15.2 inch display, and DVD Drive on 5-hour battery backup. The Expo is particularly important in the history of Apple Events because, for the performance and specifications it packed, it only weighed 5,3 pounds and was superlight- going so far as to be considered as the \u201cSupercomputer to Go\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2002- San Francisco Expo\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Expo had the new iMac G4 with an LCD display and a new iBook with a 14\u201d screen with price and specs changes. Later, at the New York Expo, the company introduced Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar along with iCal, iSync, and iTunes 3. Later, at the Paris Event, the company announced that the Mac models would only boot into the Mac OS X.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2003- San Francisco and Paris\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

The year 2003 was also quite eventful in the history of Apple Events when Steve Jobs came out with iLife, 17-inch PowerBook G4, XCode, Power Mac G5, and a new wireless mouse and keyboard.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2004- The Start of The Apple Music Event\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

2004 saw the beginning of the Apple Music Event first in June in London, and then in October when Jobs announced the iPod Photo Line and the new U2 iPod.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2005- The Start of the \u201cShuffle\u201d<\/span><\/h3>\n

2005 was not quite either for Apple. At the WWDC, Ste\u00adve Jobs shared that Macintosh would be moving from Powe\u00adrPC to Intel x86 chips. This noteworthy moment in Apple\u00ad’s timeline saw 110 labs, 95 talks, over 500 Apple\u00ad engineers, and 3,800 visitors from 45 different countries. The Wallflowers graced the attendees with their music. Later in September, Apple’s Music Event revealed new products. Jobs launched the iPod Nano, the Motorola ROKR iPod phone, and iTunes 5, and shared that Harry Potter audiobooks would join the iTunes library. Kanye West took to the stage post-announcements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Later in October, Apple unveiled the fresh iMac G5. It featured a front camera, Photo Booth software, and the fifth-generation iPod Video.<\/span><\/p>\n

2006- The Introduction of the First Intel-Based Computers\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Back in 2006, Apple shared some exciting news. They were moving to Intel processors and opening up their product range for the first time in the history of Apple Events. At the year’s start, during Macworld, an iconic Apple announcement came. Hello, Intel-based computers! They rolled out the iMac and MacBook Pro. Not only that, but new iLife and iWork versions along with a universal Mac OS X (10.4.4).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Not soon after, Apple came with the iPod Hi-Fi speaker system, which had already started creating buzz among the youth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At a unique event in Cupertino. August of that year, it was the WWDC, where Apple announced the Mac Pro, which would be replacing the Power Mac G5 along with updates to Xserver. Plus bonus features in Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) like Time Machine and Spaces, not to mention the perks of the Mac OS X Server. They weren’t done yet though. In September, Apple pulled back the curtain on Apple TV (or “iTV”), refreshed the iPod run, and launched both the 2nd-gen iPod nano and the new iPod Shuffle.<\/span><\/p>\n

2007- The Conference and Expo- And A Lot of Introductions\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

In 2007, Apple CEO Steve Jobs made heads turn at the Macworld Conference & Expo. Jobs showed off the iPhone and Apple TV. This particularly was another year of happening expos in the history of Apple Events. Apple was shifting to Intel processors, leading in music, and adding Paramount movies to iTunes. The iPod had also become the top video and MP3 player and the content was exploding. That same year, Apple launched the aluminium iMacs, refreshed Mac Mini, introduced iPhone OS 1, and debuted new iPods.<\/span><\/p>\n

This year particularly in the history of Apple events was all about the App Store for iPhone and iPod Touch. At the conference, Jobs showed off the MacBook Air, the slimmest notebook ever. He brought news of iTunes movie rentals and the Time Capsule, a wireless backup tool. He also announced that the iPhone was a hit and has sold more than 4 million units. Not only that, but he offered a new software update for iPod Touch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

By this time in the history of Apple Events, iPhone has started taking form to what it is popular today. Steve Jobs introduced the iPad at the San Francisco Apple event on January 27.

In fact, the iPad was internally referred to as K48.<\/span><\/p>\n
