Disgust at Apples refusal to open up the iPhone.

I recently purchased 3 iPhones, and own 3 Mac's but I must say that Apple's complete refusal to even allow discussion on this forum of opening the iPhone up so that others can write applications for it is absolutely disgusting. If Apple starts this "its proprietary" stuff, then I have probably bought my last thing from them. Linux here I come.
I think that Bill Gates must have found a new home in Cupertino.
There are a lot of good things about the phone, but there are a lot of bad things too. Opening the phone up will help fix the things that need fixing and will open entire new reasons to buy the phone.
The calculator is worse than a $5.00 special I could buy at WalMart, you can't even backup if you mistype a digit, something many $5.00 calculators can do.
The Calender and Contacts are really buggy and missing features. I constantly have to go to my laptop to fix something I can't fix on the iPhone.
I think that Apple needs to "JAILBREAK" the phone themselves if they really believe in being "Open".
Web Apps are not of any value if you don't have coverage and the few I've tried are BAD!!!
Apple, what is so wrong with letting other people write applications for the iPhone. Some will be bad, some will be good. Stop swimming against the tide.

Wolf Nut,
First, I would suggest you take a look at this site, which may require registering for a free Apple Developer Connection account:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/
In the lower right hand corner is a link to the text of the announcement Steve Jobs has already made in regards to a SDK:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/devcenter/thirdpartyapps.php
Hope this helps,

You should consider downloading the 10.6.8 combo updater and applying it again.

When is Apple going to open up the iPhone Developer Program?

I signed up for the iPhone Developer Program almost as soon as one could sign up for it. I was one of the unlucky many who got the "you are not important enough to let into the Developer Program" e-mail. That was months ago when the rumor was that they would be opening it up around the time of the WWDC. Well, it is now WWDC time. Is there any more info on this?
Why don't I use the iPhone Simulator? The iPhone Simulator does not simulate the accelerometer very well (i.e., it does not simulate it at all) and the accelerometer is important for my app. I can't even tell if my app is feasible without running some test code so that I can get a real world sense of how well the accelerometer works.
Between this and the significant issues that I am having with my MBP and Apple's lack of response, I am starting to feel that I picked a bad time to start doing Apple development.

Excuse me, but Apple clearly has decided that some application developers are more important than others. The App Store is opening up next month and I don't think they will be selling apps that haven't been QA'ed on real devices. Oh, I get it. All of the big name mobile software vendors that Apple wants to display in their App Store just happened to get randomly selected.
"Apple has no way of knowing who has real apps ..." Well, I told them that I did. I even told them that it uses the accelerometers, so the simulator wouldn't help.
You note that Apple says that there are 21k developers in a holding pattern. What is it about the iPhone Developer Program that stops Apple from just taking people's money and issuing them cookies (or whatever) that allows the downloaded SDK to load apps on real devices? Inviting people over to your house to install your app on their iPhone/iPod touch is not a very good distribution model; the App Store is needed for distribution. The limiting factor is the gatekeeper for the App Store, not a SDK that can run code on real devices. So, why don't they freely distribute a SDK that can run code on real devices?
After telling the world "look, a SDK for the iPhone" months ago, why can't Apple even give a date to 21k people who took the time to sign up for the Program when they might be able to run their apps on real hardware?
I want to do things the right way (through Apple's SDK) and I really don't like the idea of jailbreaking, but right now that seems like the only option that I have to proceed with my app development.

IPhoto always opens when the iPhone is attached even with no new pictures..

Is there any way to prevent this from happening?

Yes, let it import the camera roll pictures that are on the iPhone and let it "delete originals" and then let iTunes sync photos and you will have your pics but the camera roll will be available again.
No "new" pictures does not make any difference when you have not let iPhoto delete originals when it imports the images. iPhoto will open whenever it detects images on the camera roll.

A midnight opening for the Iphone 4S?

I wish best buy would open at midnight for the Iphone 4s release. I doubt this has ever happened. They would get a great jump on the other stores as far as sales go.

Check out www.safeware.com or www.worthavegroup.com, but AppleCare + is new and it covers 2 instances of accidental damage and pay a $49 fee for avreplacement

I am learning how to make a web page but every time I try to view my file it refuses to open saying the file is not protected from view by outsiders.

I set up the file as index.html. When I try to view it on Firefox it won't open the file.

Hi Kirk -
I believe the method discussed in this post is the most reasonable: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=200&message.id=10160#M10160
I don't know of any 3rd-party tools for creating movie files in LVRT. The AVI functions can't be supported in LVRT because they're based on DirectShow functionalities, which are only available in Windows environments.

After Updating Firefox Refuses to open yet the CPU says that it is?

Firefox will not Open at all, yet in the system tray it say that it is open. This has happened after I upgraded..

This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js .
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore

I have been using firefox on my desktop with windows xp for years with no problems and suddenly refused to open. The error message reads "unable to locate component. plc4.dll was not found." What does that mean? How do I fix it?

The error message also suggests that I unintall and reinstall firefox, I tried that but it does not fix the problem.

Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then disable Virtualization and reinstall Firefox.
Other security software may have similar features to prevent Firefox from updating files properly.

TS1702 I have just installed iso6 and now no apps will open and the iphone will not power down

Help required I have just installed iso6 now the iphone4 will not open any app nor will the phone power down

I have had Lion since it was first released July 20th, and I have noticed that I can not zoom in on everything that is on the internet, some things seem to not be able to be zoomed in on. Are you saying that no matter what website you go to (this one for eample) the zoom function does not work?

On the mac book do you have to close out apps or things that you have opened like the iPhone or iPad?

I am new to the mac book i only have an iphone and ipad and i wasnt sure if you have to close all things out like you would do for an iphone or ipad? i am trying to download the adobe flash but it keeps telling me to close safari and i did then when i go back to it it still keeps telling to close safari am i doing something wrong?

You do not have to quit your apps when you shut down your MB. If you do not shut them down, all the apps that are open when you shut down will reopen when you next power up.
The question of installing flash is a different issue. After you download anything that is to be installed in Safari, you have to quit Safari before running the installer.

I have updated the latest software on my iPhone 4s and now I can no longer open up the iPhone settings from iTunes and certain apps no longer work on the phone itself.

Anyone else have this problem?

OMG I just upgraded as well and only my apple pre-installed apps work anything I downloaded wont open. This is a mess. I tried resetting and rebooting and nothing.

Do I have to use apples touch I'd with the iphone 5s

The question is straight forward i would like to use one of the water proof cases like the arm serious otterbox or life proof but I'm not seeing it ever working if I have to use the touch I'd.

No you do not have to use that feature. You can disable it in settings if you wish

ICal refusing to open (com.apple.ical.plist file missing)

I have tried opening iCal and it refuses to open. The icon bounces on the dock, then asks if I want to report the issue to Apple. I have reported multiple times but I don't know how reporting it will help my iCal work again. (See below the dashed line for the error report.)
Since then, I have tried to replace iCal, but the software claims it cannot be installed on this machine.
I have tried to update my current iCal, but no updates are available.
I have browsed the forums and saw that some solutions were if HelveticaNeue was missing from my fonts. Got it.
And then I saw some threads about refreshing the com.apple.ical.plist... That's a problem. I don't have that file in my library at all. I can't seem to find any way to get it either. What can I do?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I would suggest using optional install to reload iCal from your installation disks, then download the combo update for your machine and run. Then see will iCal start. If it doesn't, use console.app to see what error messages it reports.
com.apple.ical.plist... That's a problem. I don't have that file in my library at all. I can't seem to find any way to get it either.
It is created by iCal when it runs.

Previously saved files refuse to open

Recently I have had 3 saved Pages files refuse to open because "the document does not have a valid format". Anyone else come across this and is there anything I can do to retrieve them?

This kind of thing is reported here quite often.
I wrote here many times that computers aren't perfect tools and that they may fail.
With pre-Lion systems, it's our duty to take care of our works.
Never save upon the file which we opened.
This is why I wrote an AutoSave script which save archived versions of works in progress every ten minutes.
With Lion, the system AutoSave by itself on the opened file. By default, Versions keep consecutive versions every hour which, from my point of view, isn't sufficient.
But, it would be a good idea to check if you have iWork '09 and iWork '08 installed on your machine.
Maybe, it's Pages '08 which try to open your files.
