Apple, Please Fix Your Cinema Display Adapters Already

I know this is not a new issue since there are already topics identical to my problem. I bought my Cinema Display in 2007, since then I have had to buy 3-4 power adapters. When they fail the screen goes black, then you unplug it and it works for a short time but as you keep using it the time they work keeps decreasing. My question here is why, Apple, have you not fixed this problem which I have had for the last 5 years? The other issue besides money spent is my computer is basically worthless until Apple sends me the new part. I either have to have a backup power supply for the Cinema Display or have a different brand monitor as a backup. Apple, please fix this problem, I like the display, fix the adapter.

Brian,
I had this same issue and finally found a prefPane called SwitchResX that addresses the issue that I wish Apple had. It is designed to many other things but I only use it to deactivate a second display and it seems to work well for that.

Apple, please fix your connectivity problem for the iPad Air 2! Your OS 8.2 did nothing to fix this!! Very frustrating to not be able to connect to wifi some days!

can someone from apple please address the wifi connectivity problems with the iPad Air 2??

thank you for responding. My specific wifi issue is that my connection will disconnect then reconnect in a matter of minutes of each other. After an hour of this back and forth dance of connections it finally stays disconnected. I can go two weeks without this issue then it will start up again for a day or 2. I have done all the basic troubleshooting.. Including checking and restarting my modem and router. Our iPad mini does not have these issues. None of our laptops/iPhones or xbox have connectivity issues. I have found many other iPad Air 2 users complaining of the same iconnection problems on various blogs. One blog had even discussed the ios update and how they were surprised it did not include a bug fix for this connectivity problem.

Apple: Please fix your bugs NOW!!

We have been reporting lots of FrontRow bugs in this forum for months. Is Apple planning to ever fix any of them? We want these bugs fixed now, in Tiger, we dont want to have to wait, and pay, for Leopard to get any fixes for basic functionality problems. Does this bothers anybody else? Or is it just me???

I agree. Frontrow is pretty good, but there's a lot of ways it can improve. One thing I really don't like is that to get to a certain point in a slideshow you have to browse through all the photos before it first. So, what happens when you want to start playing music half way through your slideshow? You have to go start up the music and then return and browse through all the photos all over again. Apple, hurry up with the fixes. Also, to anyone else who wants to tell Apple how to improve something, such as frontrow, go to http://www.apple.com/feedback/. There is no section there for frontrow itself, so I would recommend writing your frontrow comments in the OSX feedback section.

Seriously, Apple please fix multi-monitor display issues.

It's exceptionally annoying to have to reset my 3 displays every time my MacPro sleeps past the screen saver.

I understand your annoyance, especially when thing don't just work like they should.
Setting a hot corner to sleep displays results in the same wake behavior - second and third monitors lose resolution settings.
To be clear, my suggestion is to disable the ScreenSaver, either using the Expose settings, or using the ScreenSaver slider setting to Never.
This does not have an effect on the Energy saver settings for sleep of monitors and machines.
It only stops the video slide show of the screen saver from playing, and the monitor is black until sleep.
This issue has been present on all 3 2010 MacPros.
So, as you do, I suspect driver issues in the OS.
That is why the curiosity regarding possible behavior change if the ScreenSaver is not used.
In the issue that I mentioned, wake from sleep from ScreenSaver, was when the system would crash on wake.
Wake from sleep without ScreenSaver did not result in a crash.
The issue was traced to the mentioned driver after viewing logs in Console.
Of course, a big difference was that the graphics card in question was a flashed card with a hacked ROM, but troubleshooting gave clues toward correcting the ROM issue.
We may not be able to fix this, but with complete troubleshooting, an "educated" problem report can be made and forwarded so that, maybe, some future remedy may be had.
Anyhow, I noticed your other, older thread, and you have had a helluva a time.
Maybe, hopefully, we can find something that someone can use to fix this.........
Anyhow, I'm willing to try a bit.

Apple, Please Fix Your Software!!

Can someone clue me in to why being able to just update an application is so stinking hard? I have a password app that I downloaded that I am NOT AT ALL looking at having to retype everything into because they tried to make the app better and the only way to get it is to uninstall/reinstall.
I saw one comment in another thread about changing the file names and syncing again (so iTunes doesn't see it as a "new" file), but that worries me a bit that it'll just screw things up all together. There certainly doesn't need to be any help in this arena!
Is there some fatal flaw in this? Or did Apple just not anticipate the App Store #1 taking off so much or #2 getting so many app updates?
This is getting EXTREMELY frustrating--especially since the AppStore icon on my iPhone itself (I have a 16g 3G) is basically useless at this point.
Side Note: The whole reason I got out of my old carrier and bought this dang thing (along with taking the hit with a higher service plan) was so I could have one thing to carry instead of three (phone, ipod, planner). This is for the birds!
ARGH

"but cant"
That doesnt tell us anything useful. You need to post EXACTLY what you did and EXACTLY what happened, including any error messages.

A plea to Apple please fix slow finder, slow "save-as" options, slow address search in mail

Like many I am adding my voice to those whose finder has slowed to a crawl, it takes many seconds for it to "see" a folder.
I found one fix to the above at http://osxdaily.com/2013/11/13/fix-finder-slow-high-cpu-use-mac-os-x/which basically resets the com.apple.finder.plist file. Thanks to the user who posted this.
And the "save-as" function that is also very slow. I have seen some work-arounds but I am not comfortable messing around in Terminal and would probably forget to get rid of a turn-around when an OSX update comes. So apple please solve this.
The mail problem is similar. It is now quicker to drag an e-mail address from contacts into mail than typing in a name! Apple please fix.
None of these problems were there with Mountain Lion and judging from the hundreds of posts out there, it seems it can only be a Maverick issue.
Thank you.

I am in OSX Mavericks discussions so not sure where you get the "Which iPad" item from.
I surmise it was from the link you provided.
Most problems reported on this site are directly attributable to incompatible system modifications and poorly written or otherwise ill-conceived utilities. They exist in roughly the same proportion that have existed with every OS X upgrade since Jaguar, at least. Apple has no way to fix problems caused by software they did not develop and cannot control.
If you are interested in solving your problems more information is required. Start by ruling out hardware defects, including an impending disk failure that would cause the symptoms you described. Back up your system if you have not already done so.
To help determine the possible causes of this behaviour read the following. None of what follows is intended to fix anything, but it will provide the additional information required to advance troubleshooting, assuming you are interested in doing that.
Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red.
When it finishes restart your Mac and test again for operation. If it's still not behaving as you expect it should, please post the results of EtreCheck in accordance with the following instructions:
Apple Support Communities contributor etresoft wrote a very useful app to quickly gather certain system information that may help point to a cause of this problem. Go to his website, download and run EtreCheck:
http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
Etrecheck will be in your Downloads folder. Open it from there. You may see the following dialog box:
Click Open - etresoft contributes to this forum frequently and can be considered a trustworthy developer.
It will take a moment to run as it collects its data.
Copy and paste its output in a reply.
Do not be concerned about anything that says "Problem" or “failed” or anything else that may appear in red.
EtreCheck was designed to remove any personal information (such as your computer's name and serial numbers) but if you see anything that looks like an email address or any other personal information that should not be divulged to others, please delete or obscure that information when you post the reply.
When you are finished with EtreCheck, quit the program. It occupies very little space, and you can keep it or drag it to the Trash as you wish.
After completing the above please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.
System performance problems for reasons that cannot be isolated to any other cause justify an SMC reset. Be sure to read the procedure carefully and follow all the steps exactly as written, even if they seem inapplicable or trivial.

Connecting external drive crashes iMovie 8 - Apple please fix this!

If I have external drives connected when I start iMovie 8 it will crash when it tries to index them.
Also if I have no drives connected and iMovie 8 running, the program will crash as soon as I connect a drive.
Apple, please fix this! I need to use external drives for storing of my videos.

Are your external drives formatted as Mac OS Extended / HFS+ ..? They should be.
If they aren't, you'll have to remove whatever's already stored on them, and then re-format them using Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility. You can then put back what was stored on them.
(P.S: I have NO crashes using iMovie '08 and any correctly-formatted external FireWire drives. I don't use external USB drives, as they're not fast enough for the sustained read/write speeds which video requires.)

Just installed iOS7 on iPhone 4. Huge typing lag problem now. Any fixes? Apple please fix asap.

I just installed iOS7 on my new iPhone 4. Huge typing lag problem now. Any fixes out there? How do I uninstall this update. The phone worked better without it. Don't even like the new layout and icon design.
Apple, please fix this now!!!

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

APPLE PLEASE FIX MY IPOD SHUFFLE FOR ME !!!!

Ok i am starting to really get annoyed.
Every single time i have connected my iPod Shuffle to my computer (and i have own two computers within the last year) so i have switched to the newer one, so basically its not my PC's fault.
Every time i connect it, it messes something up. last time i tried to charge it, it froze my pc. I tried again, it kept on ejecting and reconnecting magically without even moving about. And i always connect the iPod to the REAR USB 2.0 ports that i have, and i have 6 of them.
So anyways, after RE-installing the latest software updater, and iTunes, and restarting, and trying a thousand times, i somehow managed to get songs on to the shuffle.
But now we have another problem. When put my ipod in SHUFFLE mode it goes alphabetically from A to B to C (artist wise), and when i put it in Normal mode which is supposed to go alphabetically, it goes randomly from A to D to Z to F, etc.
Also i have 68 songs on it, and somehow it managed to play the same 10 songs over and over and over, without me even turing it off... acting as if i only have 10 songs on the thing.
Its been less than a year i have own this, and i dont think i have AppleCare on it, since my Uncle bought this for me around April/May 2005.
PLEASE HELP, or APPLE PLEASE FIX MY IPOD SHUFFLE FOR ME!

<sarcasm>Here's a deal ... mail your iPod to me and I'll get it going again or, more likely, confirm that there's nothing wrong with the shuffle itself. That will take ........ ohh, I'm estimating a few minutes. Eventually, when I can find time in my busy schedule, I'll mail it back to you. Be sure to remind me to do that.</sarcasm>
Seriously, though — do I understand you correctly? You want everyone else to do your homework for you? Okay, fine ...
You've noticed the 101 Class .... but no, too busy for that. You could just go to the Troubleshooting page, I suppose, and get your question answered directly and who knows? Maybe that would have been more productive than writing up your three separate posts today. You will have to click one or two more times and read a little bit, granted, but I just did all of that in the middle of writing this reply to you.
Oh, right, I forgot .... too busy to find it. Here you go

The one you'd be interested in would be the one that talks about green lights and no music and yadda yadda yadda ...

APPLE PLEASE FIX: iTunes7 Music Crackling

Does anyone have a huge problem with their music crackling when they play itunes on their computer. It is just when I use itunes on the computer...my ipod is fine.
APPLE PLEASE FIX
Dell Inspiron 5100 Notebook Windows XP

This has happened to those of us who have updated their ipods to ITunes7. I installed and uninstalled the application several times. Even went to the ITunes Store to purchase music and it was just as crackly as the rest of my library. What the in world. I have corrected the problem by simply deleting the all existing ITune libaries and reinstalling the original software that came with my Ipod. The only other issue if you have not set your ipod for "enable for disk use and manually update", you will have to restore your ipod to original status. Starting all over with a back up of the current library. Click the don't ask me box until problem resolved. Good Luck.

Apple, please fix audio problems with iMovie

Ok, I have many iMovie projects, about 10. In one project when I add music from iTunes I can control the tracks fade, volume, everything I'm able to control. This is also possible when I make a new project and add music from iTunes.
So, this is possible in one project and all new projects.
But when I try to add music from iTunes to an existing project (all other 9 projects) the audio controls do not work. I can't mute the iTunes mp3 I can't fade it, NOTHING. Having bought my $6000 mac primarily for iMovie you can imagine how frustrating this is.
I've tried the following
Re-installing software
Deleting preferences
Clipping audio in garage band
Using different music, including different file types, eg .WAV
It's obviously a bug apple, please fix it asap.

Hi
This is a User to User forum - Apple rarely drops in to have a read.
Give them feedback if there is a bug (that can be repeated)
How about this.

Hey apple, please fix iOs7 XP bug.

Hey apple, please fix iOs7 XP bug.

Restore the phone as a new device. Do NOT restore your backup. See if that clears it up. If it did it with your first phone and the replacement, it's reasonable to assume that you restored the replacement from the backup of the original. If something was corrupt, it would have been contained in that backup, transferring the problem to the new phone.

To Apple: Please fix iPad Air Wi-Fi Bug

Apple,
Please fix the iPad Air's Wi-Fi bug that has been in the IOS 8 operating system. This bug is causing the iPad Air to freeze constantly inside Wi-Fi-enabled apps and Safari. It is also causing settings to freeze constantly when going to get connected to the Wi-Fi. The best way to fix the freezing and connection problem is by restarting the iPad every time it loses connection and freezes.

Hi SweeseM,
If you are having issues with your iPad becoming unresponsive when using Internet applications, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPad -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPad as a new device -
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
