Are you ever going to make iBooks for Mac OSX?

It seems crazy to me that Apple has not released iBooks for the Mac!! Why would you hold out on such an essential tool for students or anyone wanting to use their computers and iOS devices for reading??
Has there been any new for a forthcoming iBooks for Mac?

No, and I doubt there will ever be. iBooks is only for iOS.

  • Are Adobe EVER going to make Edge Animate scale-to-fit (like Flash)?

    I've been following the progress of Edge Animate (formerly Edge) ever since Steve Jobs decided he wasn't having Flash on the iPad.
    With each new version I've been desperately looking for the feature that I consider the most important of all: Scale-to-fit
    There are a couple of discussions already on this forum where people have requested this feature - but both have been sidetracked by replies from people who haven't understood what 'scale-to-fit' is. So let me explain Scale-to-fit:
    I'm talking about the feature in Flash - where if the HTML dimensions are set to 'Percent' - then the resultant movie will scale-to-fit any browser window. Here is an example of what I mean:
    http://www.skippingschool.co.uk
    - try changing the browser size and you'll see the whole frame (graphics and images) scales without changing its proportions.
    When the latest version of Edge Animate came out with its built-in easy-to-follow 'Resize' Lesson, I thought Adobe had finally found an answer. But good though this feature is, it doesn't solve the problem. It's only possible to properly scale-to-fit images - not graphics.
    It's now more important than ever that Adobe finds a solution to this problem. The world is going 'Responsive' - its not just a fad. And 'Responsive' is not just about three columns being squeezed into one. All Responsive sites require images, graphics AND animations to scale-to-fit. So Adobe's tutorial showing how Edge Animate can be added to WordPress sites is of limited use because it won't work for Responsive web sites.
    So please Adobe, will someone tell me if scale-to-fit is EVER going to happen? I don't mind if it's 3 months, 6 months, 9 months down the line - but I need to know if it's worth me sticking with Edge Animate - or whether I should be looking toward HTML5 Canvas or something else for a solution?
    Alternatively, is there some fundamental reason why it can NEVER happen?
    Please tell me? Just put me out of my misery!

    Hi Sarah,
    I hope you don't mind but I played around with your code a bit and managed to get the kind of scale-to-fit behavior that I believe the OP was asking about.  I think the trick is to make sure that you also check whether the scaled height of the stage exceeds the height of the browser window and change the scaling so that it is responsive to changes in both the width and height of the window, whichever is the limiting factor. The code I changed in CompositionReady appears in bold below.  I hope this helps.
    sym.$("#Stage").css({ // Set the transform origin so we always scale to the top left corner of the stage
    "transform-origin":"0 0",
    "-ms-transform-origin":"0 0",
    "-webkit-transform-origin":"0 0",
    "-moz-transform-origin":"0 0",
    "-o-transform-origin":"0 0"
    function scaleStage() {
        var stage = sym.$('Stage'); // Set a reusable variable to reference the stage
        var parent = sym.$('Stage').parent(); // Set a reusable variable to reference the parent container of the stage
        var parentWidth = stage.parent().width(); // Get the parent of the stage width
        var parentHeight = $(window).height(); // Get the browser window height
        var stageWidth = stage.width(); // Get the stage width
        var stageHeight = stage.height(); // Get the stage height
        var desiredWidth = Math.round(parentWidth * 1); // Set the new width of the stage as it scales
        var desiredHeight = Math.round(parentHeight * 1); // Set the new height of the stage as it scales
        var rescaleWidth = (desiredWidth / stageWidth); // Set a variable to calculate the new width of the stage as it scales
        var rescaleHeight = (desiredHeight / stageHeight); // Set a variable to calculate the new height of the stage as it scales
        var rescale = rescaleWidth;
        if (stageHeight * rescale > desiredHeight) // Do not scale larger than the height of the browser window
                        rescale = rescaleHeight;
    // Rescale the stage!
               stage.css('transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
         stage.css(  '-o-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
               stage.css('-ms-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
         stage.css('-webkit-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
               stage.css('-moz-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
         stage.css('-o-transform', 'scale(' + rescale + ')');
               parent.height(stageHeight * rescale); // Reset the height of the parent container so the objects below it will reflow as the height adjusts
    // Make it happen when the browser resizes
    $(window).on('resize', function(){
               scaleStage();
    // Make it happen when the page first loads
    $(document).ready(function(){
        scaleStage();

  • Are you ever going to fix the "You've been signed out" problem?

    I've gone through forums and your trouble shooting page and I've found a lot of angry customers over thus Creative Cloud "You've been signed out" problem. Fortunately for me, I'm not a customer. I installed it so I could download a trial or premiere with the intention to buy, but now I don't need the trial because this is issue has made up my mind. But I am still curious if you're ever going to fix it?

  • APPLE ARE YOU EVER GOING TO FIX THE MACBOOK'S WIRELESS PROBLEM??

    How long do we have to wait for a simple wireless fix? I have been waiting over a year putting up with being disconnected from the net every single 5 minutes of every day. its making my blood boil. I have to use boot camp to run Windows XP on my macbook just because wireless is absolutely perfect when running on Windows XP. How hard can it be to fix this on Leopard? I have searched through hundreds of threads and have found no fixes whatsoever. For a company who strives for perfection you are pretty far from it.

    Not at my house, sadly. Since the update I've been plagued again by the up/down/up/down for "en1" (the wifi network interface, i.e. Airport). I have four bars too; this problem happens even if I'm sitting next to the router.

    Good idea not to jailbreak.

  • I need help identifying an old Macintosh game: it was a painting game where you rode a roller coaster to an art museum and you got to pick what kind of art work you were going to make. This was the early 90's and I've been trying to hunt it down

    I need help identifying an old Macintosh game: it was a painting game where you rode a roller coaster to an art museum and you got to pick what kind of art work you were going to make. It was animated, 2D i believe. This was the early 90's and I've been trying to hunt it down. I think there was some kind of animal in it, a giraffe maybe?

    Could you be thinking of Microsoft Home's "Fine Artist" for Macintosh, as shown in this Amazon.com listing?  This program was bundled with the Performa series of Macs during the mid-90s.

  • Are we ever going to get angry birds in South Africa

    Are we ever going to get angry birds in South Africa, afta leaving android jus found out i cnt get angry birds on iphone 5

    From what I understand, games are not available in the SA App Store as the goverment cannot make up their minds regarding the age classification of games. So it's not Apple and not the developers but the SA goverment that is blocking the sale of games in SA. The only way to get access to games is to have a US or UK iTunes account.

    Wjosten,
    After your post, and more people like this, tomorrow may be a nice day to go for a bike ride and a bad day to place a call to Apple at the end of the day.
    So many people waiting at home for a free iPhone 5 delivery and at the end people calling Apple to complain that their phone did not arrive.

  • Are you aware that people make thrash apps beginning with the AAA letter just to be the first app you see in AppStore, so its harder to find the true apps with all that thrash?

    Are you aware that people make thrash apps beginning with the AA letter so they can be found before the other good apps? Its now hard to properly scroll the new app with all the thrash.

    Am I aware? Yes. But I am just another Apple user and developer. Is Apple aware? Does Apple care? You need to tell Apple that you are aware and you care by sending feedback: https://www.apple.com/feedback/
    Of course, the fact that Apple doesn't even have a feedback category for the App Store might be some indication of how much they care.
