HT2509 Why has apple not ditch font book yet? The software causes more problems than it is worth using.

How can I ditch font book and remove from my computer? It causes nothing but problems and I prefer to use Font Reserve which runs smooth on my Macbook Pro with Retina.

iOS4 has been working fine for me.
What troubleshooting have you done?
As far as the app, have you contacted the developer to let them know that their game crashes in iOS4?

  • My ipod touch 4g just updates today on itunes and the update caused more trouble than good. My ipod will no longer show me the battery percentage in the top right hand corner and also I am not allowed to drag other applications to the bottom panel.

    My ipod touch 4g just updates today on itunes and the update caused more trouble than good for me. My ipod will no longer show me the battery percentage in the top right hand corner and I am not allowed to drag other applications to the bottom panel. Also my itunes doesn't allow "enable disk use" anymore. Can anyone help? My ipod now says that it's the 4.3.4 version

    - Unjailbroken iPod never showed % battery.  Just the icon.
    - Unjailbroken iPod Touches never had a disk mode.
    - What happens when you try to drag a wiggling app to a empty space in the bottom? Does it move and snap back?

  • Why has apple not made ios 7 available for iPod touch 4th gen?! Ughh

    Why have apple not made ios 7 available for iPod touch 4th gen?! How annoying!

    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G only has 256 MB

  • Why has Apple not offered something like "Free Safe Text" as part of the iOS?

    I just saw a story on TV about a new app called "Free Safe Text".  I have been looking for something like that.  It is not currently offered in The Apple App store.  I have even asked our business insurance carrier for something like it.  Apple obviously has become the leader in the smart phone market.  I don't understand why they are not demonstrating a concern for safety by offering a similar app or by building it into their iOS.  I believe that the insurance community, as well as the public should demand that this be done now.  Distracted driving is killing thousands of everyone's friends, neighbors, and loved ones.  Apple should act more responsibly in this area!

    All I am saying is that the improper and unsafe use of smart phones has become a public safety issue.  I don't believe that any law or our elected public officials will ever be successful in controlling this problem.  I do not mean to imply that Apple is responsible for the irresponsible use of their devices.  I do believe that Apple, as well as all other smart phone manufacturers, should work diligently, hand and arm with the insurance industry, to build hardware and software features into their devices to solve this problem.  Ultimately, it will be the insurance community that will demand that the mobile phone industry build the necessary safety features into their products.  As the industry leader, it would be nice to see Apple at the forefront of these efforts.  I am a long term and loyal Apple product user.  They have obviously been very successful.  I want them to continue to be!  Apple should lead the industry down the road to solving this problem long term.  The responsible thing for us all to do is to encourage Apple, and the entire mobile phone industry to move quickly down this path to save as many lives as possible.  If this includes disabling smart phones entirely while in a moving vehicle, so be it.  The best solution would be to take vehicle control out of human hands.  Unfortunately, technology is not far enough along to make that feasible.

  • HT1222 Why has Apple not either removed Security Update 2012-002 or updated it?

    It hosed my iMac and a Mac Mini; kernal panic on the first, freeze on startup on the second. iMac is a 2 ghz Core 2 Duo, the Mac Mini a 1.83 ghz Core 2 Duo. I get tired of getting notices to update when I know my system will be brought to its knees if I do.

    It had no such effect on mine. There are always some problems with updates that hit some users randomly. And sometimes Apple really screws up, but I don't remember hearing too much about this one here. Seemed, for the most part, rather problem free.
    See my recommendations for updating. You could try re-applying it. Might help.

  • Why is there not a free book of the week this week?

    The past two weeks that I have observed there has been a free book of the week choice with a yellow banner on the bottom but it doesn't appear this week. Any reason as to why that is?

    Nobody in these forums has any info on why Apple does such things, but  you can give them your views on it via

  • Why did Apple not put Siri on all the iPads ?

    I'm dump founded that Apple didn't include all the iPads for OS6 update. And not put Siri on all the iPads Why?
    Can anyone tell me why....We all plaids the same prices for the iPads just different models...

    I think it's down to the resources on the iPads. The new iPad is the only one that can push Siri with enough umph to make it work. I would have said the iPad 2 should be able to run it as we'll but obviously Apple don't think so.
    I've got the new one so have been giving it a go and it's definatly got potential. My mother in law is blind so I'm hoping we can get her one soon.
    Anyway hope that helps.

  • Why is Apple not offering AppleCare Plus on the new iPod Touch 5th Gen?

    I don't understand why Apple would offer damage protection on iPhone and iPad, but not on iPod touches? Unless Apple offers a replacement model for $149 ($99 plus $49 deductable), then I don't see the point. However, I still think it makes the purchase decision a lot easier on parents knowing that a $300 or $400 device can be protected in case of accidental damage.

    That question would be more appropriate for Apple support. All of here are only end users like yourself and can only speculate as to why it's not being offered for the 5G iPod Touch.  However, speculation of Apple products and such are prohibitied on these forums. Sorry.

  • Why have Apple iCloud a solution that causes more problems than it solves?

    Dear All,
    Steve Jobs once said that the launch of MobileMe wasn't Apple's Finest Hour" I have a sinking feeling that with the captain absent the ship has begun to drift off course. Why has iDisk been dropped, why has Syncing accross your macs been discontinued, why has there been so much talk about icloud when all it really has done is added Music and Photo syncing (thanks for solving that problem) and dropped all of the other useful features...... having to use a combination of Flickr, Dropbox and Youtube seems ridiculous given the solution was already there..... why not apply some apple brain cells to those services and make them work correctly and keep them.... all of the other 3rd party apps have proved extreemly popular, why not open up these services and make them viable as apple services, icloud has been one step forward and three steps back......not to mention the less than seamless transition from one to the other, lost calendars etc etc.
    A very dissapointed, teatering Apple Fanatic.
    J

    So you're one of those people who looks at the world and wonders "Why"
    So we are in agreement then that syncing is less complete in terms of the services you've listed than before.
    You're wrong about the last point; I did follow the instructions and made my backups (luckily) then iCloud decided to delete 2 of my calendars after I did the migration..... Nothing is impossible; don't be naive.
    Let me ask you a question: If you sat down with a blank canvas, is this what you would have created as a solution for Apple?
    I am very disappointed with what it is and more importantly what is could have been and isn't.

  • Why does Apple not carry certain books? (i.e. George Bush's new book)

    I read George Bush's new book called Decision Points came out today and I was going to buy it on my iPad but the iBookstore didnt have it. I had looked a week ago to see if they had it for pre-order which they did not.
    Does apple just not carry all new releases? Does it take a couple days? Or is it some bush hater at apple decided not to put his book up?
    Now please leave all your personal feelings about bush aside when replying. I personally think haters and lovers should all read this one.
    But it is irritating that the book isnt on the bookstore! Anyone know why?

    It's not Apple's decision. and has nothing to do with political views. The publishers have to be willing to provide their books to Apple for inclusion in the iBookstore. To date, Random House, which is publishing former President Bush's book, has refused to license any of their titles to Apple.
    If you feel the need to complain to someone, complain to Random House. Meanwhile, Decision Points is available as an electronic book from either Amazon or Barnes and Nobel, both of whom have software for iOS.
    Regards.

  • Why Has Apple Not Fixed Bluetooth!!!!!!!!!

    I know this has been discussed over and over again but all I wish to do is connect my iPhone 4S to any other Bluetooth device PC, MAC, handset ect this can’t be that hard its only Bluetooth every other handset set I’ve had never had an issue so why Apple!!!!!!!!! I love the iPhone and was a devoted Android user till not long ago thinking of going back as I need Bluetooth. Sad that such a technologically advanced company has not fixed this small issue.

    "Apple should build in this feature into the iPhone"
    You can leave feedback for Apple at:  http://www.apple.com/feedback
    " i cant understand why they havent "
    You do not need to understand it.  Apple has made the decision.  Your understanding has nothing to do with it.
    Leave feedback for Apple.  There is nothing more you can do.

  • Why has Apple NOT fixed the bug on iphone 4s on Meteor?

    My phone has never worked since i bought it.. It is not fit for purpose. it constantly keeps searching for network..  both my Texts and Calls fail on almost every attempt.  ive been bounced from Apple to Meteor, back to Apple and still i have a dud phone!!! I have restored it 4 times. sent it bake to meteor, changed sims and still it does not work.
    this issue is know to both Apple and Meteor, yet both companies seem happy to allow customers to have this outrageous experience.
    Apple what are you doing to fix this?

    Your not speaking to Apple here just user to user like you and I.
    have you tried resetting your network in settings.
    Apple doesn't control networks, that would be your carrier they activate your service, so your anger you be towards meteor not apple.

  • Why has Apple not addressed the problems with its own software?

    Since I seem to have made the fatal mistake of upgrading my lovely iMac to Snow Leopard, most of my iLife 09 products have ceased working. In particular iDVD, where as before on faithful Leopard it did its job 100% it now decides to crash whenever it feels like it, leaving me with a third party application to use. Myself, along with approx 2000 other users have the same problem, so come on Apple, why the problems with your own software?? and why are we still waiting??

    Hi hipster36
    Welcome to apple discussions. Question for you: Is your mac intel based?
    If not, what's the objective in upgrading to Snow Leopard as opposed to continuing to work perfectly within Leopard? What added features were you considering to upgrade to? Are there any benefits in doing this for your own mac (even if it is intel based)?
    It's wise to approach all upgrades with caution (meaning always back up your current / working HD).
    Frankly, the way I upgrade is to clone my existing hard drive and then boot to the clone. Thereafter, I install the latest upgrade or OS (assuming it works well on the clone). I guess what I'm saying is to never upgrade without backing up and performing a test drive of the latest OS before you opt to alter your main hard drive. One can't assume that the latest and greatest Mac OS will continue to work fine on a mac which didn't first ship with this particular OS.
    This latest Mac OS /Snow Leopard is a bold step forward for apple. It's bold step forward in that it excludes all non-intel based macs.

  • HT6065 Why has Apple not fixed Mavericks breaking AuthenTec USB Fingerprint readers?

    Apple bought AuthenTec and shut it down to gain the technology for the iPhone. Later, they released Mavericks and broke the drivers that allow AuthenTec Eikon Fingerprint readers on Macs, despite having ample resources and time to do so.
    Do the right thing and fix the driver or the OS- no other entity can do so.

    I can help with the "IR Receiver" part of your question. That's the piece of hardware inside older MacBook Pros (MBPs) that lets them work with the Apple Remote. "IR" is the standard abbreviation for "infrared," the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum used by remotes for many common devices (stereos, cable boxes, Apple TVs, etc.). The remote sends a coded stream of IR pulses; a corresponding receiver in the target device "sees" the infrared light and decodes it. The MBP's internal IR Receiver sends the received signals to the processor via USB through an internal hub.
    The most recent MacBook Pros have dropped the IR receiver and no longer work with the Apple Remote.
