Apple should make a way to input the passcode into iTunes! If your screen is broke and you have a passcode you cannot backup your device or anything! We should be able to enter the phone passcode in iTunes to bypass entering it on the phone! I cannot do anything when my screen is black without erasing the entire phone!

Apple should make alternate "ringtone sounds" for the iPhone...

I'm not really a fan of having actual songs as ringtones, I prefer ringers or other sounds like the ones that came with the phone. Is it a possibility that apple might make some more of these and put them in iTunes?

you can make your own ringtones by using a free app called MakeiPhoneRingtone. take any sound or audio sample you want & save it as an AAC. then drag it onto the app's icon. when you sync your iphone to iTunes & it should be there under the 'ringtones' tab.
if you don't have a program that can save an AAC, try exporting it in quicktime pro as an AIFF. then import it into iTunes & convert it to AAC. drag it to your desktop & then onto the app's icon (it doesn't seem to want to drag & drop directly from iTunes).
record your own "Wife calling" or "wake up for your early meeting" ringtones & alarms. audio samples from your favorite shows like The Simpsons or Futurama make good ringtones too.

Apple should make a macBook where the screen can turn around and become touch screen, for easier use

Apple should make a macBook where the screen can turn around and become touch screen, for easier use. especially for when i go to uni

Why touch and swivel screens arent a good idea on a laptop:
The so-called Gorilla arm: Gorilla arm is a term describing the tired arms users get after reaching out and touching a screen for a long time.
Added thickness: Touch screen panels are usually thicker than non-touch ones—especially if the touch panel has an active digitizer for pen support.
Possibly shorter battery life: Touch screens require more power. Laptop Magazine compared a couple of touch screen laptops with their non-touch counterparts (same model and size) and found that the non-touch laptops lasted over an hour longer.
Easy to break: Swivel screens are notoriously prone to break, especially the hinge and the cable that feeds the screen from the logic board which is being constantly twisted.
And thats what the Ipad is for.

Will apple pay work with the iphone 5s.? Atleast the online payment system can work fine with touch ID.. Apple should make a note of this.

Apple pay is great feature introduced with the new iphone's. But for 5s users who are not gonna upgrade this year, apple is a requirement. Sure they can use it via apple watch. But apple pay with the online payment system can be used via the touch id, i feel.. Apple should make a note of this and enable it for users.

Probably not, as the 5s doesn't have NFC capability.

Apple should make a server hardware/OS with iOS level security. This could compete well with the breach infested pre secure OS/hardware server systems like Windows Linux OSX. It should be structurally immune to phishing etc

Apple should make a server hardware/OS with iOS level security. This could compete well with the breach infested pre secure OS/hardware server systems like Windows Linux OSX. It should be structurally immune to phishing etc and could be sold easily as a secure alternative. It should be based on structural hardware based security as has been demonstrated in the iOS operating system and the hardware should be made in secure facilities in the US. Those Chinese put weaknesses into the hardware they make as has been documented on 60 minutes.

Apple's entry in the server market has come and gone - is there a question in there somewhere?

Apple should make Bluetooth equipment not Mac OS specific.

I have bought Mighty Mice and wireless keyboards from Apple and wireless mice and keyboards from Logitech. I also had one high-grade Microsoft wireless mouse. I have a few thoughts about them.
(1) The new Microsoft mouse was out in a couple of months. (Made in China, poor quality, terrible!)
(2) Apple' Mighty Mice and wireless keyboards are pretty but too much trouble in connection and search of reconnection. The devices are so much tied to the version of Mac OS, very inconvenient, especially for someone like me in the transition between Mac OS 10.11 and Mac OS 10.5.5, the Apple's might mice and wireless keyboards are headaches. Apple should make the Mighty Mouse and Wireless Keyboard equipment specific (my laymen's term, excuse me!) In another words, they should be connected to the computer's Bluetooth automatically as soon as the computer is booted up, without the support from individual version of the ongoing Mac OS.
(3) Logitech's mouse and keyboard work in different version without losing the contact between the switch of Mac OSs. However, they will be more attractive if they are designed the look and functions like the Apple's Mighty mouse and keyboard.

OK, I finally got my BT keyboard to 1) initially pair (I migrated to a new machine) and, 2) to reliably pair after a re-start.
It took some time to actually get the KB to pair with the new laptop. I was able to do this after zapping the PRAM and installing fresh batteries. But, on booting, the keyboard would not re-pair. I would fiddle with the keyboard power switch, and turning BT off/on. This does not make a BT KB useful with a laptop.
Anyway, I found a tip somewhere that suggested re-installing 10.5.6 from the Combo update (I was already at 10.5.6 from Software Update). I did this, and the problem appears to be fixed! After a reboot the KB pairs with my laptop. Yeah!
Eight hours later, problem solved.

I am wondering if apple could make an ipad about half the size? It would be easier to carry and would be easier to read than an Iph one.

Apple's engineers have apparently decided that the iPhone/touch/iPad and MacBook fit the most popular needs.
Did you have a developer related question?

Awesome post. This is the best description I've seen of what continually makes me angry about Apple. I guess their attitude is, "Whoa, look at all this money! If it ain't broke, why fix it?" And Margthecar the I keep shoveling money into their coffers ....

Is there a way to force the cursor into a string control when a vi is called

In a .vi I'm wrighting I need to input a new serail number at the beginning of each run. Is there a way to force the cursor into the string control box every time the start screen returns? eliminating the need for the operator to move the mouse around and click.
I would like to THANK all that have replied to my questions in the past. It has been a big help!
Thanks

Is there a way to disable the passcode function?

hello, I work at a school, in the IT department. one of my jobs is to manage all the ipads.
I have a lot of ipads that students use. some students like to make a passcode and lock me out.
is there any way to disable the passcode function?
thanks,

No, but what you can do is use the free MDMs at http://www.simplemdm.com/ or http://www.meraki.com/products/systems-manager/ , enroll your devices, and clear passcodes set by students with the click of a mouse.

Do I have any function/way to divide the rows into un-equal size buckets?

Just like the function NTILE divides the rows into almost equal size buckets, do we have any way to divide the rows into un-equal (randomly decide) buckets so that eg. I can get 4 rows in bucket_1, 38 rows in bucket_2, 17 in bucket_3, ..... Only things is that each bucket should have rows from 1 to 50. (fixed limit).

with source_table as (select object_type, object_name from all_objects where rownum <= 100),
     t            as (select rownum as rn, s.* from source_table s),
     cnt          as (select count(*) cnt from t),
     bucket       as
     ( select bucket_id, bucket_width,
           sum(bucket_width) over (order by bucket_id) - bucket_width + 1 as rn_start
         from
         ( select level as bucket_id, ceil(dbms_random.value(0, 50)) as bucket_width
             from cnt
             connect by level <= cnt
select bucket_id, object_type, object_name from t, bucket
where rn between rn_start and rn_start + bucket_width - 1
order by bucket_id
