Any update to the Maverick/icloud synch issue?

Over the last few months there has been a lot of discussion about how upset we all are that we can only synch under Maverick using icloud. It is now mid-Dec and I was wondering if Apple has seen how unhappy their customers are and, if so, is there any talk about them fixing this issue? I love Apple products but if I lose my privacy I may go back to the PC/Android world.

Also wondering did everyone just give up and succumb to icloud or are you, like me, dealing with just not having ical and contacts up to date in your mobile device?
Yes, 320+ Million people are using iCloud. The method of syncing that a few here are unhapy about, being calender and contact sync via usb cable, is still not available. Search the issue, especially the security between Android and PC. You can use what you wish. No one is forcing you to use Apple and iCloud.

Hello, I am running a Mac book pro soft. 10.5.8 version. Since june the current year I did not get any updates for the software or any kinds of other application, in my opinion that's weird for such a company.

Hello, I am running a Mac book pro soft. 10.5.8 version. Since June the current year I did not get any updates for the software or any kinds of the other application, in my opinion that's weird for such a company.
The problem that I have now is with the Iphone 5 which is not supported for the current Itunes and I can not download the Itunes 10.7 version. What I supposed to do in this case because I can not syncronize at all.
Please give me a hand as soon as possible.
Many thanks

Mac OS X 10.5.8 is years old, 3 major versions out-of-date and unsupported at this point. You will never get any further updates for 10.5.8, and more and more applications will stop supporting 10.5.8 as time goes on. As mende1 points out, you can buy Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6), which will let you use your new iPhone with your computer, but you need to make sure your computer's hardware is supported. See the system requirements for Snow Leopard:
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
If your computer cannot run Snow Leopard, you will need to either buy a new computer or abandon any thoughts of syncing the iPhone with that computer.
Also, note that you'll get far better integration of your iPhone and your Mac if you're using Lion (Mac OS X 10.7) or Mountain Lion (Mac OS X 10.8), which are required to use iCloud. Of course, the requirements of those systems are even steeper than those of Snow Leopard:

I changed emails. My user ID will not let me get into my phone to do any updates, but the user id is associated with an email address that no longer exists

What a mess the Apple ID, and associating emails, ID etc has got itself in
I have a new iPad but after 2 days of trying all sorts still can't sync it because it is says it is associated to the other via the iCloud
I can't use my alternate email address to setup a new Apple ID account as it says it's already used or associated, but I haven't knowingly done anything
One message says "This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID."
I am at a complete loss on what to do

Preventing the notification of any updates to the apps by Microsoft Store

Hi
With Windows 8.1 Update, how do I prevent all users
that the notification of any updates to the apps
by Microsoft Store will never be displayed?
Thanks
Bye
Balubeto

Hi，
You can trun off the notification by GP
Run gpedit.msc to launch the group policy editor, then locate to
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Store, in the right pane, find and enable`turn off the offer to update to the latest version of windows'
run gpupadte /force to update the policy.
You can also turn off "automatically update your apps", open Windows Store, the move the mouse to right pane, on the charm bar, click "Settings"\"Add updates", then turn off "Automatically update my apps".

TechNet Community Support
A doubt: If you enable the "turn off the offer to update to the latest version of windows"
policy, I just disabled
the notification of the updates of the "Microsoft
Store" app and not the update notifications
of the various apps, as I would like.
Right?
Thanks

Windows installer package not running or installing properly error when i try to install and update to the new icloud control panel.

i get a windows installer package not running or installing properly error when i try to install and update to the new icloud control panel.

Okay ... so it's not one of the cases of bodged up ACLs on the Apple folder in Common Files. (That's been underlying a few of the recalcitrant E7W5s.
Just in case, let's try the fixit from the following document:

Any update on the 2.1 mail saga?

Apologies is this is in the wrong forum
But has there been any update on the whole 2.1 update being 'over conservative' with power, by which I mean managing to almost kill push and fetch when the phone is sleeping?
It's been a while now and it's getting a little annoying that theres no update

No updates, no. A few threads, including one very long (and continued)) one, but no fix.
We hope it will be addressed in v2.2. No one knows when v2.2 will be released, but it has been seeded to developers so it should not be too long.

Any updates on the remote Menu button

I haven't seen anything lately on the issue of using the remote's "Menu" button to access play lists etc when the video ipod is hooked up to a TV via the doc and an AV cable. Are there any updates on this? I am getting kind of tired of having to walk over to the TV to change playlists, etc. etc.

Well, I am taking about something a little different. Your link refers to what you see on your TV screen. I can get by without mirroring, its the remote i want to work better.
When the 'iPod Dock with Remote' originally came out, a lot of us assumed that the "menu" button would work the same way as the "menu" button on the ipod itself, i.e. it would take you back one level. We also assumed that the volume keys would let you scroll up and down through items in a menu (not as elegant as the scroll wheel, but workable). And that the RWD and FWD buttons would work as they do on the ipod. All of this taken together would give you full operation of your ipod without having to touch it. Adding screen mirroring would be the icing on the cake for the dedicated couch potato.
Unfortunately, the menu button is disabled on the remote when it comes to controlling an ipod... it only works for front row on a mac.
Anyway, a lot of us were hoping this could get resolved through some kind of firmware upgrade to the ipod itself.

Are there any updates for the original 4th generation

My ailing mother has an ipod that she has had for years but has not registered it. My want to see if there are some updates for the original OS.

Sync it via iTunes and see if it shows any updates available.

Is there any update in the future for the iOS of iPod Nano 6th Generation??

i have ipod 6th generation 16GB and as u know its up to date to version 1.2 so i'm wondering if there's upcoming update because this version is not enough to be the end, i suggest an update and i have few ideas for it. 1st:custom wallpapers from photos i download. 2nd:moving artist name and album name like the title name. 3rd:an actual battery percentage. that's should be it.

If history is any indication there will be no further update. The Nano is only running the Pixo OS so what you have listed may not be feasible.

After finding out that iOS 6 won't be alvailible for iPad 1 I have to ask, is there going to be any updates for the iPad one? It's kinda ridicules if our devices just stop being upgraded after two years......

I was quite disappointed when I read their will be no iOS 6 for first gen iPads and am curious as to if they are gonna just stop upgrading it all together, cause if so that's a bit crazy after two years they pretty much just drop the product?? What I want to know is, is there going to be any more updates for the iPad one at all, to update the security features browsing and stuff like that (not all the fancy FaceTime or seri and what not just the basic iPad 1 stuff)? Cause if not that's is a MAJOR waist of money. $800 for two years of use???

While none of us here can say with certainly, it's likely that iOS 5.1.1 is the last version of iOS that an iPad 1 will run.
As to a "waste of money", has your iPad stopped working just because a new version of iOS was released that the iPad won't run? Our iPad 1s haven't just ceased fallen over, even though they can only run iOS 5.1.1, and are in valuable use every day. But perhaps yours did indeed somehow stop being useful. If so, I'd recommend selling it and buying something else that you think would better suit your expectations.
Regards.

Why did my pages and Safari not update with the Maverick download?

After the Maverick download: My Safari looks and acts the same. My pages look and act the same. My Iphoto icon has changed , but there are no changes in I photo either, though I was asked to update the library.
The only thing I see differnt after the Maverick download is I have maps.
Was that it? The discription of Maverick sounds much differnt.

We are all busy with many other problems in Pages 5.
Unless you have found some real reason to use Pages 5 just go back to Pages '09 which should still be in your Applications folder, until Apple sorts this all out.

Any News in the Mail/Hotmail IMAP issue?

Since installing OS Lion on my Macbook Pro mail rejects all my hotmail passwords. My iMac running Snow Leopard all works fine. Know this has been an issue. Any news on when Apple will provide a fix?

Can you send messages from the Hotmail account?
Is the hotmail account a POP3 account (as opposed to an IMAP or Exchange account)? If so are there any messages on the server to download? If they were downloaded on another device and then deleted from the serer, then they are not available for download on another device.
