Mailbox Will No Longer Delete Your Email Accounts Thanks To Latest Update
Here at Cult of Mac, we love Mailbox, the third-party Gmail client for iOS.

Apple TV Update Pulled After User Reports Of Bricked Devices
Friday, we reported that Apple TV was updated with a new v6.0 update, bringing with it features like AirPlay from iCloud and iTunes Radio.
Today, however, Electronista reports that the update has been pulled. We’ve confirmed that the update is no longer available, as our un-updated Apple TV still says it has up to date software today, showing Apple TV software version 5.3.
We assume the update was pulled due to several user reports on the Apple TV discussion forum of Apple TV devices becoming useless after updating to the new OS.
Cleaner, Faster, Simpler: It’s A Brand New Evernote For iOS 7

Apple Releases iTunes Update 11.0.5 To Correct iTunes In The Cloud Issue
Apple just released a new update for iTunes, saying, “This update corrects an issue with iTunes in the Cloud, where some purchases may download or play unexpected items.”
What does that mean, exactly? Apple didn’t say much more, but I’m guessing that some users were clicking on the button to download a previous purchase that was stored in iCloud, but ending up with something totally different.
This update should totally fix that. You can download the new 11.0.5 update directly from the Apple support site linked below, or use the Mac App Store via Software Update to get it.
