Why did apple leave out chapters from FCX?

I have been consistently surprised by Apple in that when I boutght the imac in November, I did not realize it no longer had idvd. I have purchased Final Cut Pro but have found out it does not allow you to make chapters for output to dvd. Why did they leave these things out? If I can understand why, perhaps I can adjust. I am so disappointed.

a) DVD is SDef only - HDef is for more than 6-7 years the thing
b) DVD is limited - delivering via 'Cloud services' allows display (in HDef) on phones, pads, computers, tellys, at home, mobile, anywhere, for you, for others, for all.
and if you like to hand-out a single copy of a movie, use a flash-mem usb-stick
no doubt, iDVD was a masterpiece of software, offering superb designs and tons of individualizing options (I made a website some hundred years ago … https://sites.google.com/site/idvdmodding/ ).
it would be charming, Apple would offer legacy iDVD as a 2.99$ at AppStore …

Why did apple leave out the estended screen

why does mountain lion not utilize all my 27" screen when using the web? the old lion had an extended screen setting which operated well
can this be in a future update? If not, looks like I've purchased a 27" computor that is usless for what I thought I was getting.
can this computor be taken back to Lion??

If you are referring to full screen, it's still there in Mountain Lion. Go to the View menu and choose Enter Full Screen.

I bought a macbook pro on november 2011 wich had Lion OS installed on it. Playback plug-in in Mainstage 2.1.3 does not play files from the beginning (it leaves out like 50 mSecs or so). Is there a way to revert to Snow Leopard OS?

...Is there any way I can install a partition that runs snow leopard on my early 2011 MB pro with what I have (new SSD, New RAM, Current version Lion running, no external drive, lack of original snow leopard disks [I lost them ] and the general 10.6.3 snow leopard boot disks)...
As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17. They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

Great early Article about Apple's plans for FCPX

Hey, guys.
Just stumpled over this article on Ars, which might be really important for a lot of us.
http://arstechnica.com/apple/news/2011/06/more-on-apples-direction-for-final-cut -pro-x-express-and-server-going-away.ars?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campa ign=rss
Do you now understand why Apple leaves FCP7 on your system, when you install FCPX?
This is the 1.0. The starting point.
I too have the info that there will be rapid updates.
Especially when Lion is out.
Seems FCPX is supposed for Lion. That's clear. It's like we have early access now.

A "net install only" OS is a non starter. Hard drives fail. Hard drives get replaced with larger hard drives. Apple may have a Gigabit connection to the internet, i don't. My business does not. It's like launching the iTunes movie store when people had 56K dialup.... this is NOT going to work!!
Lion without bootable media? not a chance in H E (double hockey sticks)
Hard drives do fail. Computers get replaced. That could be big trouble if you Microsoft licensed product, but the Mac App store doesn't care. Your purchases are linked to your account. Anything you have purchased on the Mac App store can be downloaded for free on any computer that is set up with your account. That is a better system then you realize. And you do not have to worry about losing the install disc or your serial number.
Lion does not come with bootable media, but its very easy to create a Lion boot disc.

Why won't Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the contract was honored and I am still an AT

Why won't Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the 2 year contract was honored and I continued to be an AT&T customer with an iPhone 4. I wanted my old 3gs unlocked so my daughter could use it overseas when she is deployed. AT&T service over there *****, the international plan was not worth it. The individual SIM cards per country are much more reliable and cheaper. Teslestial in Iraq and Afghanistan, Telecom in Croatia,Vodafphone in Germany and Italy. Why Apple will not unlock these phones for our military to utilize is incomprehensible to me. These young men and women are fighting for these Apple people to go to work every day, safe, to live lives they have become accustom to yet releasing a phone to use on another network they can't do at least for the military.... WHY APPLE?? WHY? A good excuse not some of the many lame excuses I have received on the phone many times. AT&T states it is Apple that will not allow them to unlock the phones... Please tell me why? All I want Is my daughter to have a phone I trust, to be able to call me when she is given the free time to do so and I trust the apple phone.
Apple, please reconsider your stance on this issue. I am having a hard time understanding why you will not unlock the iPhone.
A simple code could allow me to talk to my daughter while fighting for our country the Great USA. Apple should be on the front line and enabling those fighting for our life, liberty and pursuit of happiness to use unlocked phones on reliable local GSM networks.
I honestly hope that someone who has some sort of authority to begin allowing the release of unlock codes, and not forcing people to unlock their phones with some program produced by some hack just to be able to use your wonderful phone. That is is in a nutshell, People love the iPhone so much that they want the ability to use it on the most reliable GSM carrier available to them. That should be a major compliment. Even men and women on the front line want your phone. I agree, my service is not the best where I live either, love the GSM technology so stay with it, but if I had the ability to change to the other GSM network that has much better coverage in this area of the country I would change. To change now I would not have my iPhone and that I will not part with.
Apple, please reconsider opening up the lock code and allow your gem of a phone to be used by many more people in many more areas and most importantly overseas fighting for our country. I know if this is really thought about Apple would understand and come to the conclusion to release the unlock codes, and stop the people from hacking in to use the iPhone on other networks.
I would love for my daughter to be able to use my iPhone 3gs while fighting for our Free country.
A response would be appreciated.
Thank you.
An Apple customer for 10 years, phones and computers.

Defiled:
I did sign a two year contract and completed that contract. The 3gs is no longer in service. My daughter is going overseas to protect you and your family. I was attempting to find a way for her to have a reliable phone that could offer her some connection with home as she travels through the middle east. She travels in missions all over.
At&T unlocks other phones of theirs why not the iPhone? AT&T says that Apple will not give them the code, it is not the carrier. If I would have known this situation would have come up I would have bought and unlocked 3gs phone"Deggie" . My main complaint is that Apple has not good excuse as to why they will not allow their phones to be unlocked from services well, AT&T . I bought the phone full price, completed the contract terms, even went for and iPhone 4 with another2 year contract, along with owning an apple computer... I love the product. My main issue is give me a good answer as to why you won't allow a phone to be unlocked. It doesn't hurt Apple, People still have to buy the phones from them, and use their App store and iTunes.
Sorry, just upset about my daughter heading over there, boots on the ground, and just pray she will be safe. Would have liked to facetime her while she is in the airports and in specific areas allowed for that.
Please don't come down on me for asking this question. I understand all the contracts etc.... but to single out the iPhone specifically to not unlock after contract is over does not seem fair.
Thank you for your responses.

Warning: Leaving out empty argument '-windowtitle'

When I generated a javaDoc for my project I received the following
Warning: Leaving out empty argument '-windowtitle'
Could someone please explain to me what is that warning and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance

I too am generating my javadoc files from Netbeans and I get the same message. However, my javadoc is generated fine, so my advice is not to worry about it!
The documentation says:
-windowtitle
Specifies the title to be placed in the HTML <title> tag. This appears in the window title and in any browser bookmarks (favorite places) that someone creates for this page. This title should not contain any HTML tags, as the browser will not properly interpret them. Any internal quotation marks within title may have to be escaped. If -windowtitle is omitted, the Javadoc tool uses the value of -doctitle for this option.

How do you get straight answers about Apple products?

I'm trying to gather information on buying Apple products and my posts keep getting deleted.
So, I'm not even going to ask why my posts were deleted because I'm sure you have some reason for everything. What I am going to ask is where I can go to get real, uncensored answers about Apple computers so I can be an informed consumer, not just someone who is "wowed" by fancy packaging and the glowing apple logo.
Thanks,
Jeff

The problem I have is that there is an illogical mentality on this forum for a logical thought process of the user.
I am thinking of buying a mac...so strangely enough I come to Apple.com. I look around and realize that the sales pitches are fine and all, but they're not answering my questions.
So step two, look for an email address so I can contact Apple and ask them the answers to my questions....no email.
Ok, so next step, I come to the forums where I am already a member due to previous problems with another Apple product.
I make a post detailing my current options, thoughts, and questions.
In the REAL WORLD things aren't as black and white as Apple.com would lead you to believe so I asked some real world questions relating to both technical and advice from other Mac users.
The thread was closed down due to violating some terms. Even though I was saying right in my post that while I had other options I didn't want to discuss them here, I just wanted to discuss my Macbook related questions.
Doesn't matter though. It was deleted and that was that.
So what does that do? What it does is a few things.
1. It makes the Apple forum seem cliche. You can't complain or the "Apple minions" will put you in your place and break a pinky just so you rememmber.
2. It makes a potential customer like me very reluctant to buy the products because I don't feel good about the illusion of support based on whether it is favorable to Apple.
3. It doesn't answer my questions. I posted the exact same topic on the Vista forum and it's still going, at post 30 and there is a lot of good advice even though I'm talking about installing vista on a Mac or the other way around.
Then...I get the same thing every time I come on this forum. A majority of people making **** sure they find a way to tell me I'm the one out of line and that Apple can do no wrong.
Regardless, it says a lot about a company when you ask questions and they are deleted because they're not favorable for whatever reason. It makes me say, "Well screw it then, I'll stick with what has worked and what I know"

Have the iPod serviced by Apple for a flat fee or send it into a third party repair company to have them repair it for a little less. A simple Google search for iPod Touch screen repair should give you a number of results to work with.

HT201303 Do any of you apple geniuses out there know how to retrieve the answers to your security questions or at least reset them? Apparently its to much for the support team. Can't get an answer out of them...

Reset Security Questions
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
Manage My Apple ID
Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
If all else fails:
Go to: Apple Express Lane;
Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
Then choose iTunes Store;
Then choose Account Management;
Press Continue;
Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click Continue;
Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would like your security/challenge questions reset;
Click Send.
You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
Presently there appears to be problems on Apple's end, so it may be quite some time before they respond.
Another user posted the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone.
It is kind of round about way to get in
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
1) on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" > tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
2) Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select "done", in the upper right corner
3) sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the security questions.
4) At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends!

Will apple come out with a update for Siri to be available after ios 6

Will apple come out with a update after iOS 6 for Siri to available for download in the AppStore? I think apple should charge iPad 2 users about 10 dollars to let us get it

Like what penguin said......If apple doesnt say it, I wouldnt believe it. I just read an article this morning SPECULATING Siri for the Ipad 2 around holiday time. Its those websites jobs to speculate which attracts readers(like me for example). I highly doubt it though.

Terms of use - Constructive feedback about Apple products.

Hi,
Just wondering if it might be worth updating the terms of use to remove the references to "Constructive feedback about Apple products" as being an welcome type of post on the forum.
I was under the impression feedback was welcome having read the terms of use, but have just had a couple of posts removed today with the reason given that feedback should be sent elsewhere. The terms of use also describe a type of Apple employee who monitors the forum to collect feedback to pass back to the relevant group at Apple, which further gives the impression that the forum is a good place to leave feedback.
Obviously no one wants to waste their time writing posts that get removed and Apple would like feedback in the most useful channel so it could be worth clarifying this. Perhaps the feedback link could be added to the terms also.
Thanks.
PS it's nice to see this part of the forum is polite and welcoming, having spent a few days reading the iPad forums, I was about to give up on the whole thing as it all seemed really unfriendly, probably due to the iOS 4.2 update, but you've restored my faith a little, perhaps I'll return a bit later when things calm down a bit!

I was just conscious that I was about to repost the same offending post, but hopefully it's ok in this forum as this is the forum where questions about inappropriate posts go, if you see what I mean. I didn't want to annoy the moderators by them having to delete the same post for the third time.
This is the place to discuss such things. Had your original posts been very offensive, the moderators would have probably just kicked you off and then you wouldn't even be able to discuss it here
It isn't a matter of annoying moderators. It is about staying true to the spirit of the forums. In some cases it is one of those "I know it when I see it" subjective analyses. Apple Discussions is for user-to-user discussions of technical topics. If you are talking about how to use an Apple product, your post won't get deleted. If you are talking about Apple itself, it will probably be removed. If you are talking about some topic unrelated to Apple or Apple's products, you are on thin ice, even here in the Feedback forum. They will let it go for a while, but eventually that will get deleted or locked, even if no one complains. The bottom line is if your post is likely to help anyone. If not, then it has cause for deletion and may get removed depending on how many people feel "unhelped".
All in all though, the reason for me starting this thread was more due to the difference, with regards to feedback, between the terms of use and the email you get when a post is removed. The email makes it very clear feedback should go elsewhere whereas the terms kind of suggest the opposite.
I agree and I think you have a good point. It should be clarified. It may take a while though. All the Apple corporate secrecy has raison d'être. Apple is a big company and moves very slowly. They just try to keep those slow movements concealed to maintain an aura of nimbleness.

Two questions about apple mail

hey everyone. i'm getting to learn a little more about apple mail these days; smoothing out Gmail IMAP synching and whatnaught. i've stumbled into the mail directory on my macbook and had some questions.
1. the "mail downloads" folder (home/library/mail downloads). what is the significance of this folder? in the preferences, i have my default downloads saved to the main "downloads" folder. yet there is a random number of files in there; i don't think they constiute the totality of every message i've received that has a file to download, so what is the logic of those files? if i delete them will the downloads not be available from individual mail messages any longer?
2. i see some older IMAP mailboxes for two accounts that i don't even have access to any more. they don't, however, show up on the mail app itself. is there some way to reintegrate these mailboxes (just for archival purposes, and the ability to see their messages) into the mail program?
thanks so much!
quin

Aaron,
The Mail Downloads folder contents are redundant to what is kept with the messages. The most typical ways that content results in that folder are:
1) quickly clicking the Save button on a message, rather than using a click-hold to then have the option to choose a target location of the Save;
2) you open an attachment with another application. There Mail Downloads is only meant to be a temporary storage location. Attachments are kept as originally received with the message itself. Also, in the more recent version of Mail, it is redundantly kept in a folder within the INBOX.mbox folder named Attachments -- this is a behind the scenes behavior. It first appeared only for IMAP mailboxes, but more recently in Mail 4.x is also the case with a POP account. If unedited, then depending how you have your preference set up, attachments may be removed when Mail is quit, etc.;
3) Mail in 10.5.x and 10.6.x seems to require the Mail Downloads folder to be created, rather than use the Downloads folder. The latter is mostly used as the location of items you click to load from a remote server, whether in a Browser or in Mail.
With respect to your old IMAP account folders or mailboxes, where have you found them? I would assume any old IMAP accounts have been deactivated in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced if in the Mail folder, but not showing in the Sidebar to Mail? It would problematic to activate an IMAP account if it can no longer contact the IMAP server. Any xxxx.imapmbox folder can be dragged from the Mail folder (after quitting Mail) to say the Desktop, renamed as xxxx.mbox folder, and then back in Mail imported to be an On My Mac mailbox for archival.
More info, please.

App Store problem about apple id.

As i bought the new MacBook Pro before some months i haven't had an apple id so i used y friend's apple id to update the pre-installed applications like iPhoto and iMovie and now when i've got my own apple id to use and when i try to update those applications I get an option to add the friend's id's password which i dont know. I'm really angry about this Apple should see forward to make changes about this procedure or anyone who knows should give me his knowledge.

those Apps are forever tied to that ID...
You can Contact the Mac App Store and request assistance...

Or, you can Delete those Apps and Purchase them using your Apple ID.

My iPod Classic syncs about 350 songs out of 3000 then stops syncing abruptly. Any ideas whats going on? It was working fine up to a couple of days ago and i'ts barely over a year old.

Hi Owen7777,
Your problem may be the same as described in this topic: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4142872?tstart=0
The issue is described along with tips. It is most likely to be the hard drive.
Good Luck,
