TS3694 why cant apple allow for incremental downloads of their software updates so slow connections get a fair chance to get the updates

how can i update when i have a slow connection?
to update my ipad would take 5 hours to download the file and the server times out before then.
when i restart, the process starts all over again- not where it left off so will fail again!

Only Apple knows why they do what they do. You could send them feedback and at least let them know of your issue.

Beyond that if you have a laptop perhaps you have a friend's better wifi you can use? Or maybe if you have an apple store nearby make an appointment and take it there to be updated.

Why is Apple allowing Omniture to track on their sites?

I talked to Apine support about why they didn't recommend blocking Omniture on the Apple website. They said blocking it would effect functionality. So why is Aplle allowing this company to track us?
BTW I went ahead an blocked Amniture and haven't noticed any loss of function yet.

I think you may misunderstand what Omniture does. The Omniture code thats on the Apple site is for a tool called SiteCatalyst, which its owned by Adobe. (Adobe bought Omniture and is in the process of eliminating the Omniture brand name)
Adobe SiteCatalyst (Omniture) is a tool that Apple has decided to include on their site for the sole purpose of helping them better understand their visitors experience. Thats it. Apple will be the only who will have access to or do anything with that data. Its all totally anonymous information, and will never given to or sold to anyone by Adobe. All of the collected data is typically consumed in aggregate. Looking at what a single person did on the site is not really usefull information for the owner of the site. But when looking at what all the visitors did for a specific day/week/month, Apple will begin to see trends in visitor behavior. Analyzing these trends will help them make decisions on changes that should be made to the site for the purpose of improving the visitors experience.

I just downloaded a new software update on my I-phone5. As part of the process I was asked to sign in to iCloud and enter the password for an ID that I've long ago deleted with Apple. Anyone know why my new apple ID isn't coming up,

No. The problem is that when you changed Apple IDs you did not update your Apple ID to reflect the change, so your phone is still associated with the old ID. You will need to un-associate it. The process is the same as what you would do if you sold the phone. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661

Why wont apple allow me to purchase chips/coins for games

Why wont apple allow me to purchase chips/coins for games

I don't know. Maybe you could tell us what you are seeing to make you think this.
If by some remarkable feat of mind reading I sense you are seeing a message for you to contact iTunes Customer Service about the purchase, well maybe you should do what it suggests and find out.

Is there a setting that allows for simultaneous downloading and watching of a rental movie on ATV?

Is there a setting that allows for simultaneous downloading and watching of a rental movie on ATV?

Apple TV has no storage, it is caching the movie and needs to load a portion before playback starts. The time it takes is dependent on your network.
What is your current connection via speedtest.net?
Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
If on wifi try ethernet

This itunes software is rubbish why wont apple allow you to buy

... why cant apple at least inform previous owner?
But here is Apples Support Article on...
What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
And the way it works is:
The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
you need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

Why cant i find Mountain Lion download in the APP store?

why cant i find Mountain Lion download in the APP store?

They usually remove the previous version. If you need to purchase it, contact the App Store.

Why cant i search for artists in my itunes search area?

why cant i search for music/artists in my itunes search area when i'm logged on to itunes?

I should be more specific, I live in the USA, Type Disney into the search and then go to movies, you will see a list of Disney movies.
BUT that is not all the Disney films on Itunes.
The Majority of Disney films that are available on Itunes do not show up when searching the word Disney.
You have to look them up individualy by name. For Example: Darby O'Gill and the little People, Pocahantas 2, Atlantis: Milo's return, Ducktales the Movie, The Sword in the Stone, The Rescuers Down Under.
All of these and MANY more do not come up when you search for Disney or Disney movies.
Why?

Why does apple allow apps in the App Store hijack your Internet when certain websites? Why doesn't apple remove their products from the App Store?.

Apple saw it as their responsibility since the redirection took me to the App Store. They assisted me in stopping the redirection which is occurring on many peoples iPhones. It's a have java script problem that adking is using to get you to buy their games. The websites work normal and then all of the sudden the website is taken over by adking.com. You can no longer use the website as it immediately takes you to the App Store without ever showing a popup to cancel the redirection. They were very helpful fixing the problem should others experiencing this specifically with adking.com.
No need to get defensive. I'm not the only one experiencing the problem Apple said.

Why does Apple charge for Apps that are FREE? That's my concern.

Why does Apple charge for Apps that are FREE? That's my concern.

Free means Free....
As both Johnathan and Demo have indicated, if it says Free there is no charge associated with it. If you upgrade to a "Pro" version, or if you do in-app purchases, then it is no longer free....but when you initially install the app, you do not pay anything if it says "Free".
And "Yeah? I'll show you" does not help us to understand what you are talking about. If you want help, then provide specifics and we will help you to figure out your misunderstanding.

HT201272 I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days..." WH

I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 75 days." WHAT??
I've never had problems before - my husband and I have used the same library for years. My daughter also has her own Apple ID... are we going to have trouble with that, too? Actually we have 4 Apple IDs - somewhere around 8 Apple devices... this is a huge issue for us... HELP

Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.
