Apple, please do the right thing

Please don't turn your back on your most loyal supporters, those who waited in the rain and heat to be the first proud owners of iPhones. A $50 or $100 iTunes credit would go a long way in restoring our faith in you.
I know it's normal for prices to drop, but not 33% in 60 days. The PR alone from this is ugly enough for you to want to make some kind of concession to your loyal customers. Remember people laughing at those waiting on line for iPhones, calling them kooks? Do you want those mocking laughs to turn out to be true? That people who buy Apple products are kooks who pay too much money and are screwed by a company they revere?
Please, do the right thing Apple.

I hope both of you are right in the next week or so
 dood
they ought to let you trade up for a 16gb when that comes out at no charge
I'd be down with that
That is exactly what I was thinking

    everything should be on your computer.
    If you do as you should and make sure that everything is on your computer, then you should lose nothing.

  • News:The iTunes MiniStore: Apple Does the Right Thing

    Everyone upset about implementaton of iTunes MiniStore should read this:
    The iTunes MiniStore: Apple Does the Right Thing
    Just saw this. Maybe this will assuage people; maybe not. Seems like an honest attempt to make good to me.

    I concur! But I will comment more based on the terms of the store credit and validity.
    I agree..I'm not going to get ahead of myself and plan out what I want to buy before anything is really gone into detail. But I do say if it's just for the Apple online store (not iTunes store) then that Apple protection plan for the iPhone that I haven't got yet looks pretty nice. But if it's for iTunes as well then I'm getting $100 worth of 24 season 6, ringtones, and songs.

  • Cursor Hover Pop-up Doesn't Say the Right Thing?

    Hello everyone,
    I'm a fairly new Macbook user and I'm beginning to notice that the the yellow boxed pop-up doesn't always relate to or say the right thing. For ex. if I had about 6 to 7 tabs open, the tabs found further right have no problem giving me a brief description as to what the tab is about if I hover over it. On the other hand, the tabs more on the left would give me links to Twitter, Wikipedia, Apple, etc (basically the shortcuts above the tabs) even though they're something completely different.
    I also couldn't help but notice that the little bubble that pops-up sometimes displaces itself too (top left or right corner). I thought both of these issues were happening because I hadn't updated my OS X system but even after doing so, the same thing occurred. It's not a huge problem but I personally find it annoying, especially when I have many tabs in one window and can't always make out what it says. I kind of like the hovering tool when working.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Care to share which OS you are using?

  • I have done al the right things to set up home sharing for mine and my sons itunes lib but i still not getting the icon showing in the menu for us to select can anyne help?

    Hi I have done all the right things to set up the home sharing, turned it on, aurthorised it with the same details, but we still have not got the home icon in the menu to select. can anyone help?

    If you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar on it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC - when connected (and if your computer's iTunes is up-to-date) your iPad should then appear on that sidebar under a 'Devices' heading :
    If you select the iPad on that sidebar you can then use the Movies tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and sync that film to your iPad's Videos app.
    Has your iPad been synced to the computer before ? If not then you might find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • Is the Apple Digital AV Adapter  and the Apple VGA Adapter the same thing

    is the Apple Digital AV Adapter  and the Apple VGA Adapter the same thing i want to get a ipad and i want to no if there the same thing before i buy it i would want it for the web for pic but for videos too

    VGA is an analog signal, while HDMI is an uncompressed digital image. 
    The uncompressed digital image is more superior.

  • Why Can't VZ do the Right Thing For Once and Permit Network Extender Owners to Close their Networks?

    Given the fact that the Network Extender can be set for managed access or open access, clearly it can technologically be configured so that a closed network could be set up so that ONLY those users that are included in the "priority list" could access the Network Extender.
    If I had to guess, Verizon, prefers to benefit from your internet connection and your investment in a network extender by bolstering their network in poor reception areas for all of their customers in the vicinity on us Network Extender owners' backs rather than to do the right thing and permit a customer who has paid for the device as well as their internet access to close the network. 
    I find this sleazy and hope VZW will rethink its approach to this.  We who subscribe to VZW for our cellular service pay the highest rates, on average, in the country for cell service.  We have also paid hundreds of dollars for the Network Extender, and pay for the internet that is used to facilitate the phone calls made through the network extender.
    Once it a while it would be nice if VZW did the right thing for its customers and not blatantly, at least, put their corporate greed about the needs of their customers. 

    I called Verizon tech support, and was informed that there is an option to close the Network Extender. This would allow only numbers on the white list to connect to the extender. Is the information I received incorrect? I spoke to them just the other day. Have you tried to configure the extender recently?
    My post asking for clarification is here: https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/1002928#1002928
    Thanks for any information you can provide.

  • HT1199 My mac won't boot up it goes to a apple sign then the spin thing then gives me a error msg on a 10.5.8 imac what do I do?

    Plz help
    My mac won't boot up it goes to a apple sign then the spin thing then gives me a error msg on a 10.5.8 imac what do I do?

    Hi LIsa,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    Or..
    Tough without the Install Disk problems, but try fsck...
    To use fsck, you must run it from the command line. Unlike using your mouse to open an application to do something, you'll need to type a text command at the prompt (#) to tell fsck what to do. The Terminal application (/Applications/Utilities) and single-user mode are two examples of command-line interfaces in which you can type such commands. To use fsck:
    1. Start up your computer in single-user mode to reach the command line. Hold CMD+s keys down at bootup.
    Note: If necessary, perform a forced restart as described in the Emergency Troubleshooting Handbook that came with your computer. On desktop computers, you can do this by pressing the reset/interrupt button (if there is one) or holding down the power button for several seconds. On portable computers, simultaneously press the Command-Control-power keys. If your portable computer doesn't restart with this method, you may need to reset the Power Manager.
    2. At the command-line prompt, type /sbin/fsck -fy
    (SPACE between fsck AND -fy important)
    3. Press Return. fsck will go through five "phases" and then return information about your disk's use and fragmentation. Once it finishes, it'll display this message if no issue is found:
    The volume (name_of_volume) appears to be OK
    If fsck found issues and has altered, repaired, or fixed anything, it will display this message:
    ***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED *****
    Important: If this message appears, repeat the fsck command you typed in step 2 until fsck tells you that your volume appears to be OK (first-pass repairs may uncover additional issues, so this is a normal thing to do).
    4. When fsck reports that your volume is OK, type reboot at the prompt and then press Return.

  • Will Apple please reinstate the 'bold' keyboard in IOS 7?

    Could Apple please reinstate the 'bold' keyboard in IOS 7? The new keyboard is too pale and difficult to use.

    In General>Settings>Accessibility there is an option for Bold Text, but this doesn't really affect the keyboard. If you want to make your voice heard by Apple, provide feedback here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • Can Apple please give the option to remove synching video?

    Can Apple please add the toggle option for video for iCloud synching.  It is eating up all of my space due to the fact that I did not purchase them from Apple.

    You can tell Apple at the link below.

  • My computer won´t boot and restarts at Apple logo with the spinning thing

    My computer won´t boot and restarts at Apple logo with the spinning thing and I can´t get it to work.
    Before this happen I had left the computer on without a cable plugged in and so it ran out of power.
    I just pressed the startbutton again after I´ve plugged it in and this problem started.
    Any ideas?

  • My iMac is stuck at startup where the apple logo and the spinning thing are

    I have Leopard, and have recently tried to change my dock. After i added spaces, i found i could not delete them, for some reason. I tried restarting my iMac and i am stuck at the spinning thing right after the blank white screen. My guess is maybe I screwed something up while working with CoreServices (System/Library/CoreServices). Also, when i downloaded the DockChanger app, I tried to change the Dock back to default. It said i didn't have the files to run the default Dock, even though when i changed my dock, I saved those files, put them on my Maxtor external HD, and then put them back into CoreServices when i wanted to change it back. I have no idea what happened. Right now I can't start up my computer, and am typing this from someone else's. I even tried reinstalling Leopard, but it said i needed Tiger first. Please help!

    All right! I got it to work! I just inserted the leopard disk and chose restore system from Time Machine. It worked liked a charm. Thanks apple for Time Machine!
