DAY 3...and still no news from Apple - What can we do?
I notice that still no-one seems to have a definite answer from Apple about the problems we poor luddites who can't/won't upgrade to iTunes 6 are having with the store (mostly no tracklisting but I think there are other issues too).
Apart from emailing them which seems to illicit no response (has anyone had a response?) what else can we do?
Any ideas?
Thanks.
You and David have valid points---technology rumbles on etc. But here's my point: the individual computer owner, who has sunk god knows how much money into Apple, would like to have the option--since s/he knows their computer better than the nameless corporate automatons--to download the software that will run best with their computer. Is that so much to ask? ReallY? For example, I have an 'old' iMac that runs at 450Mhz. The v6 requires 500Mhz. As well, I don't care to ever purchase videos. If Apple would simply let us download pre-existing software, like 4.9 or 5, our problem would be solved and we would have another year maybe two to enjoy the music store.
I'm glad you can update, mate. Glad none of this affects you. but as you can see by the forum(s), lots of folks have been pushed overboard and as one astute poster noted, a simple change in software now will require her to go out and purchase a new computer. Imagine your having bought a 20 thousand dollar automobile and within two years, it stops running because the software that operates the ignition has been upgraded. You can't upgrade as it doesn't match your systems needs or whatever. Would you be p*d off? Might you think it just a tad galling that a company would have you run out and purchase another car because even though they had the version of software you need to run your auto, they wouldn't provide it for you? That's arrogance...and frankly, some of us would rather walk than be treated that way.

I have over 40 Itunes purchases and they all play back fine, But my last purchase Ip Man2 keeps freezing on play, I know it's not my PC because all my other itunes movies play fine, wasn't able to get a helpful response from APPLE, How can I get a refund on that purchase or a better copy.
I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever.
But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud.
iTunes prefs > Store > Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.
This will show all your iTunes purchases in your library with a cloud icon down arrow. Click the icon to redownload or click on Play to stream without downloading.
Also see this , -> Download past purchases
and techncially, you don't "own" the movie, You simply have a license to use it.
Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library.
Actually, no it does not tell you that.
FYI: You should keep copies of all yoru iTnue spurahses as the labels/movie studios/copyright owners can pull their product at anytime and it won't be available to redownload.

Can someone tell me how to access my iphone again?
Last night I changed the passlock code and when I put the new one it did not recognized it. Now I am locked out of my iphone.You will need to try to restore your iDevice from the same computer that you most recently synced to.
Read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If you can't do the restore then you will need to try Recovery Mode.

I recently updated the add-on StumbleUpon which offered a tool bar. Since then I do not get the line which has the URL space as well as other functions. I am now forced to use IE. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled but get the same startup page. What else can I do short of using system restore to a prior date?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== when I last updated add-ons.This issue can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar extension

Just downloaded Lion and now iMovie won't respond when I try to open it. Even tried deleting the program (since it was an older version) and bought it new from the app store, but still won't respond.
Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

i bought macbook pro and update my osx, i already have the codes and install mountain lion and its been 2 days now and still downloading mode
Disable anti virus software.
Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent apps from downloading including Mountain Lion as well as third party download managers.
Keep in mind, for downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store, a high speed (broadband) internet connection is strongly recommended by Apple as noted here > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
If you need to reinstall OS X or repair the the startup disk using Mountain Lion Recovery, that requires broadband access to the internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the internet form Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation. -
After moving from Canada to the US, getting a new iPhone 5C, and restoring my backup from iCloud, I can't update my apps. I get an error message that my account is not valid in the Canadian App store and I must change to the US store. How do I do that?
Change here:
Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region.
You must have a verified billing address & be located in the country whose store you are trying to use. -
Possible to download emails more than once and still display new emails?
Hi,
I have to download emails to my powerbook when i travel, and I download my emails to my powerbook via POP3 server. My office desktop PC, is connected to the company's email server via exchange server. Evertime after i download my emails to my powerbook, the email server will signalified the downloaded emails are read when i download them again to my desktop PC in my office . This way makes it difficult for me to read new emails in my PC when i got back from work. I just use my powerbook to read my emails to make sure nothing serious has happened. when i got the office, i will read my emails carefully and individually. Is there any ways to download all of my email to my Entourage and still showing NEW emails when i download my emails again in my office PC? I think our company uses exchange server 2000. thanks.If he is selling the $!29.00 Leopard, and keeping his original discs and $9.99 upgrade, everything is OK. The $129.00 kit will install on another computer (if it meets the Leopard requirements). The $129.00 is licensed for one computer, so technically, he should reinstall Tiger with the discs that came with the computer, then upgrade to Leopard with the $9.99 disc, before selling the $129.00 kit. The resulting software will be the same on his computer, though, so it is just a waste of time (unless he wants to check that the upgrade disc works). If anybody asks, he can say he did it. There's no way to prove he didn't.

If it's not on your computer, you can still view it on the AppleTV under TV Shows - Purchased. It will stream from the cloud to your AppleTV.

Hi Argyll2bikes,
Welcome to the forum. It unfortunate that there is so much extra work needed before we can supply you with telephone service. I am sorry about this. As you have placed an order for service it is incorrect for us to tell you that you need to get permission from the landowner to cut down the tree. This should all be handled between BT and Openreach.
I would like to get your details so I can find out exactly what is going on here. Please drop me an email via the 'Contact Us' link in my profile. (click on my name and you will find the link under the "about me" section). Include your BT account details and the link to this thread.
Cheers
