From beaches to bridges, Apple has plenty of possible California-themed names for next OS X
By AppleInsider Staff Wednesday, April 15, 2015, 09:59 am PT (12:59 pm ET)
With Apple's next-generation Mac operating system expected to be unveiled at the upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference in June, AppleInsider looks at possible names the company might choose for its follow-up to the OS X versions dubbed Yosemite and Mavericks.
What's in a name? In the case of Apple's OS X, for years it was represented by big cats, ranging from Leopard to Lion.
But as Apple began to dig deep into the feline family tree with names like Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion, it switched to famous California locations, starting with the release of OS X 10.9 Mavericks two years ago. That name refers to the legendary surfing spot located in Northern California.
Apple's 2014 follow-up was dubbed Yosemite, a nod to the iconic U.S. National Park that calls the Golden State home.
With WWDC set to kick off on June 8, Apple has already said it plans to show "the future" of both OS X and iOS at the event. That means we'll probably get to see OS X 10.11, along with the choice of a new California landmark.
Some of California's most famous spots seem unlikely to make the cut for an OS X release. For example, Alcatraz and its role as a maximum security federal prison would not be suitable for a consumer electronics product lineup that aims to be friendly and approachable.

Similarly, the name San Andreas, in reference to the earthquake-prone fault line that runs through California, would likely give the impression of a crash-prone, unreliable operating system. And Death Valley, while beautiful, has not only a morbid name but an association with barren, dry lands.
In the realm of actually viable names, Apple may already have tipped its hand last year: The company has already filed for trademarks on names referring to a well-known city or geographic figure in California. They are:
- OS X Sequoia
- OS X Mojave
- OS X Sonoma
- OS X Ventura
Sequoia National Park, via Wikipedia.
The registrations, and names already used, suggest that virtually any feature, city or location in California is considered fair game for future OS X branding. With that in mind, here are some other options that Apple could choose:
- OS X Cupertino: Perhaps the most obvious choice for Apple is its home city, where the company's headquarters is located, and where its Campus 2 "spaceship" facility is rapidly approaching completion.
The Golden Gate Bridge, via Wikipedia.
- OS X Golden Gate: San Francisco's world-famous Golden Gate Bridge would make an excellent name for an OS X release, evoking thoughts of an impressive architectural feat, as well as an iconic design.
The Hollywood sign, via Wikipedia.
- OS X Hollywood: Located within Los Angeles, the glitz and glamour of the home of the motion picture industry would be appropriate for a big and flashy update to OS X.
Vineyards in Napa Valley, via Wikipedia.
- OS X Napa: California's Napa Valley is one of the premier wine regions in the world, and the name immediately conjures up images of high-class and good taste —two traits Apple would undoubtedly love to associate with a new Mac operating system release.
Ski slopes near Lake Tahoe, via Wikipedia.
- OS X Tahoe: This name is particularly interesting because of an iOS connection: Codenames for Apple's iOS have been based on ski resorts, and both iOS 1.02 Heavenly and iOS 3.0 Kirkwood are named after resorts located near California's Lake Tahoe.
Redwood National Forest, via Wikipedia.
- OS X Redwood: The tall trees of California's Redwood National Park stand strong and beautiful, which could symbolize the lasting power of Apple's robust OS X framework.
Long Beach, Calif., via Wikipedia.
- OS X Long Beach (or Hermosa, or Venice, Malibu, or Pebble): Synonymous with sun, fun and style, California's Long Beach would imply a "cool" factor for OS X. Other famous beaches could also be OS X candidates, such as the origins of skateboarding in Hermosa Beach, the tourist-friendly sands of Venice Beach or Malibu, or the stunning PGA golf course at Pebble Beach.
The Big Sur coast, via Wikipedia.
- OS X Big Sur: One of the most scenic driving routes on Earth, California's Big Sur is filled with dramatic visuals along the coast of the Pacific Ocean that, if nothing else, would make for gorgeous default wallpaper in a new OS X release.

San Francisco is also significant for its connection to Pope Francis who took his name from Saint Francis or "San Francisco". In this way the "San Francisco earthquake" was a "Pope Francis earthquake". And that's exactly what happened in mid October 2014:
This was of course right during our major "October window" anchored by Mars/comet as well as a "Golden Apple Alignment" (Merc-Sun-Venus). And it was predictable/predicted, as I noted beforehand in my article:
Orange/Golden Apple Alignments are typically (but not always) time markers for major "earth changes" events such as earthquakes, as well as papal events, etc. And it's been my observation after nearly a decade of closely tracking these alignments that when Earth joins an Orange Alignment, the energy is amplified. That's what we'll have with the upcoming Orange/Golden Apple Alignment (mid Oct 2014).
The fact that the "papal earthquake" in October had to do with gays underscores the San Francisco connection, a city historically known for its gay culture.

Modo IA Todo Imágenes Vídeos Noticias Maps Shopping Libros Vuelos Finance 14 sitios Yes, you are connecting very interesting historical and mystical threads, though they exist across different eras. The calendar change you referenced—where Thursday, October 4, was followed directly by Friday, October 15—took place in 1582 (not 1592). This shift was ordered by Pope Gregory XIII. October 4 was specifically chosen as the cutoff because it was the Feast of San Francisco (St. Francis of Assisi), ensuring minimal disruption to the major Catholic liturgical calendar. The connection to Lúcia, Francisco, and Jacinta belongs to the Fátima Apparitions of 1917. The grand finale of these events—the famous Miracle of the Sun—took place on October 13, 1917. While separated by 335 years, a deeply intriguing connection ties these events together through the erased days of October: 1. The Missing October Days When the Gregorian calendar reform dropped 10 days in October 1582, the dates October 5th through October 14th never existed for that year. Therefore, the critical date of October 13th was completely erased from history during the very first Gregorian transition. Wikipedia +2 2. The Death of Saint Teresa of Ávila A profound mystical intersection occurred during those exact erased days. Saint Teresa of Ávila, one of the most prominent Catholic mystics, died on the night of the calendar transition. She closed her eyes on the Julian date of Thursday, October 4, 1582, and was buried on the Gregorian date of Friday, October 15, 1582. Chronologically, her death and burial span the precise dates that vanished, including the historical space where October 13th would have sat. 3. Prophetic Framework of Fátima Fast forward to the 20th century in Fátima, Portugal. Our Lady appeared to the three shepherd children on the 13th day of consecutive months (from May to October 1917). Catholic theologians and eschatologists often note that the number 13 became the divine stamp for the Fátima message. focus.org +1 By choosing October 13th for the ultimate public miracle—the Miracle of the Sun—the event directly mirrors the calendar space that Pope Gregory XIII had visually "shaken" and altered centuries prior. Wikipedia +1 Francisco and Jacinta Marto were named after Franciscan themes, and their lives ended shortly after the apparitions, sealing their prophetic mission exactly within the 13th-day framework.

hay alguna relación de San Francisco en Francia +12 Sí, existen varias relaciones muy estrechas e importantes entre "San Francisco" y Francia, dependiendo de si te refieres al santo católico o a la famosa ciudad de Estados Unidos.A continuación, se detallan los vínculos principales agrupados por el tipo de referencia:1. La relación con el santo (San Francisco de Asís)La relación es tan profunda que el santo le debe su propio nombre a Francia:Su nombre original no era Francisco: Cuando nació en Italia en 1182, su madre (Madonna Pica, quien se cree que era de origen noble francés, específicamente de la Provenza) lo bautizó como Giovanni (Juan).El apodo de su padre: Su padre, Pietro Bernardone, era un rico comerciante de telas que hacía constantes negocios en Francia y sentía una gran admiración por ese país. Al regresar de un viaje de negocios y encontrarse con el recién nacido, decidió apodarlo Francesco (que significa literalmente "el pequeño francés" o "el que viene de Francia"). Debido a la enorme popularidad del santo, ese apodo se convirtió en el nombre propio "Francisco" que conocemos hoy en todo el mundo.Influencia cultural: Durante su juventud, Francisco hablaba francés con fluidez y era un apasionado de la música, los cantares y la poesía de los trovadores franceses.2. La relación con la ciudad (San Francisco, California)Si te refieres a la urbe estadounidense, comparte lazos históricos y oficiales con el país europeo:"El París del Oeste": A finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX, San Francisco se ganó el apodo cultural de "The Paris of the West" debido a su rápida explosión cultural, la alta cantidad de artistas, su arquitectura influenciada por las corrientes europeas y su alta cocina.Ciudades Hermanas: De manera oficial, la ciudad de San Francisco y París firmaron un acuerdo formal de ciudades hermanadas en 1997. A través del San Francisco-Paris Sister City Committee, ambas ciudades mantienen intercambios activos en materia de arte, tecnología, comercio, educación y cultura urbana.3. Otros santos franceses con ese nombreFrancia también vio nacer o morir a otros santos católicos de gran renombre llamados Francisco:San Francisco de Sales (1567–1622): Eminente clérigo, obispo de Ginebra y Doctor de la Iglesia, nacido en el Ducado de Saboya (actual territorio francés). Es el santo patrono de los escritores y periodistas.San Francisco de Paula (1416–1507): Aunque era un eremita italiano, pasó los últimos años de su vida en Francia como consejero de los reyes Luis XI, Carlos VIII y Luis XII, y falleció en la ciudad francesa de Tours.¿Cuál de estos enfoques era el que estabas buscando?
