Does apple censor images?

There is some nudity (nothing sexual or explicit) in my book, and before I submitted it, I wanted to make sure this would be acceptable.

Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
As far as I know there is no rule on that so I think you are ok
- but if you want to send me copies I'd be happy to examine them closely and give you my opinion

  • My book was rejected for containing images with embedded text. Does Apple not make exceptions for graphic novels, etc.?

    I created my first book with iBooks Author, and am trying to publish it as a paid book in the iBookstore. It is a book of writing and photography, and each page contains one or more photographs. Some of the photographs are of handwritten notebook pages, and these are an essential and expressive part of the book. The handwritten notes were written when taking the photographs, and the book is a thoughtful visual journal about walking and photography. Replacing the handwriting with typewritten text would not work at all.
    However, Apple rejected my book because "Embedding text in images creates issues that cause a large number of customer complaints."
    I understand the reasoning behind this requirement, and certainly it is appropriate for most books. But does Apple make exceptions for books that need to present text visually? I would call my book an "artist's book", but it could be thought of as a graphic novel. Surely there are other books besides mine that require text embedded in images.

    This sounds like something you have to take up with Apple directly rather than here in the user/user forums.  You might want to try the contacts listed at the bottom of the FAQ:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/content-providers/book-faq.html
    It might be helpful to find some things in the store yourself that demonstrate such exceptions, so you can ask for equal treatment.

  • Why when im streaming my songs for my library on my apple tv does it censor the songs and how do i turn it off?

    Why when im streaming my songs for my library on my apple tv does it censor the songs and how do i turn it off?

    I use iTunes Match, and I notice that when I play "matched" versions of 2Pac's "I Ain't Mad at Cha", all of the curse words are skipped over. Just to make sure it wasn't my copy of the track, I played it off of my permanent library, and the song plays properly. So I believe that Apple has seen fit to censor the song. I haven't read about this anywhere, but I'm pretty upset about it. I own the track -- I have a copy of 2Pac's Greatest Hits, which I ripped. If I turn off iTunes Match and transfer the song to my mobile devices with a USB cable, I could play it the way I want to hear it. I think iTunes Match is a fantastic concept, but I don't need Apple deciding what kinds of music I should or shouldn't be listening to.
    Incidentally, I haven't noticed other tracks with curse words censored. It may be that I loaded them onto my mobile device before Apple began censoring.

  • Image cannot be rendered because Aperture does not support image format

    Dear all,
    I have installed apple Aperture 3.03 and the complete Nick software plug-in selection:
    • Dfine 2.0 for Aperture
    • Color Efex Pro 3.0 Complete for Aperture
    • Silver Efex Pro for Aperture
    • Sharpener Pro 3.0 for Aperture
    • Viveza 2 for Aperture
    History
    Until a few days ago the system was running ok / no notable issues on performance. / all pug in seem to run good / no issues. Also
    • I Run OSX10.4/ Aperture 3.03 ( 32Bit mode)
    • My library contains just over 10000 images / approximately 140GB
    • I have recently updated the OSX software update including the security update 2010-005
    • as well as the Snow leopard graphic update 1.0
    • As far as I am aware all updates where automatically recommended by OSX Software update ( no manual intervention).
    • As far as I remember after update the system still was running ok but honestly I can not tell you how many times the Nick Plug in started out of Aperture.
    After all, Several times I continued using the system / still no noticeable problem until the following was happening:
    Problem:
    After creating with "PT gui" a panoramic image File type: "TIF" Pixel size: 5112 × 2556 (13,1 MP) I imputed this file in to Aperture (drag and drop). During the attempt to eddied this file with "Nick Define 2.0" the system was hamming up No response for several minutes from Dfine 2.0 / Aperture" At the end I had to "force quit" the applications.
    After the consequential reopening of Aperture I tried again to eddied images with any Nick software Plug-In but each time Aperture prepares any image previously stored in my Library ti open the Pug in the following Error message appears:
    *"This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support the image format"*
    Currently non of my previously in the library safed images can be opened in a Nick software Plug-In this applies to all file types I have tied " Raw, tif, jpg"
    • I am still able to eddied normally with Aperture ( so far I do not find any other issue)
    • A newly imported Raw image after being taken with my EOS 5D can be edited in the completed Nick software Plug-In selection ( so far I do not find any other issue)
    The following actions have been taken to overcome the issue (all not successful):
    • I restored my Library out of my back Up ( to previous time of event ( no Time machine back up)
    • Uninstallation of all Nick software Plug-In selection
    • Uninstallation Aperture Reinstallation Aperture / Nick software Plug-In selection
    • Repairing the library ( all three possibilities)
    • installation of latest EOS utilitys
    Questions
    • Can you support me to overcome this issue?
    • Have you heard similar issues of Nick user Running the Aperture plug-ins?
    For me it is really strange that even after replacing the the library in my normally not connect back up the problem still exists (this should be not affected by the event as the back up was not done any more) / new imported images are editable with the Plug-In.
    I would be happy if you could support me in this issue.
    Best regards,
    Matthias
    PS: I have reported this issue to Apple (via Aperture feedback) as well as contacted the Nick software support and currently waiting for feedback.

    Dear Ma-Le / All
    I have just had the same problem
    I use
    • Aperture 3.03 with a iMac 2.8 Intel Core 2 Duo with all files on external hard disks (mac extended fomat as apple suggests) with referenced masters.
    • Camera Nikon D300, with probably 75,000+ images on 2 hard drives
    • Photoshop CS2 with PhotoTools 2.5 plugin
    This has been working perfectly until yesterday when the system froze when I was using PhotoTools 2.5 with Photoshop CS2 - as a result of which I resorted to a force quit.
    Since then on most of my files it has not been possible to use an external editor.
    A message appears saying: *Editing Error - This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support image format*.
    The problem seems to apply to the attempted use of any external editor (including Noise Ninja)
    The following have each been tried, all unsuccessfully:
    - Using each of Aperture's library 3 first aid options
    - Rebuilding directory using Diskwarrior
    - Checking for virus using Virus Barrier X4
    - Defragmenting library hard disk using TechTool pro
    - Changing permissions settings
    - Using Disk Utility first aid to repair permissions and checking main disk
    - Removing some plist elements when open 'show package contents' of library
    - Setting up a(n almost clean) new system, with newly loaded version of Aperture, with a new library from a vault saved prior to the crash when the problem first occured
    Several things seem to me to be totally bizarre:
    1 - The problem is the same on the other library hard disk which was not in use at the time
    2 - The problem still occurs when a back up vault saved prior to this problem is loaded - using a new hard disk with a new system and a newly reloaded and upgraded Aperture software
    3- The problem seems inconsistent. It appears to affect some photos but not all. Even from the same shoot, some photos can be edited using an external editor, whilst others cannot (but as far as i can tell most of the photos in a particular album seem to be consistently affected)
    4- The only way around it seems to be if I import a new (copy image) from the original master. Then everything works ok, and I can successfully edit that copy image in photoshop / phototools plug-in.
    I am beginning to wonder whether what has been corrupted is Aperture's ability to make copies from the master file which it then uses with the external editor (I have no real idea whether this is correct)
    Does anyone have any ideas or solutions - or has anyone else been suffering a similar problem?
    Eric
    PS: As a professional photographer this problem is a really serious issue for me - and I really don't really want to go to Lightroom or Capture One

  • Does apple have update to idvd so I can use Sony dcr-sx44 camcorder

    Does apple have an update to idvd so I can use sony dcr-sx44 camcorder?

    If you already have iDVD then run Software Update, if there are any updates available for iDVD they will be posted. While that doesn't answer your question directly it is your best option. Looking at the software specifications for the camera it doesn't look like it was ever intended to work with OS X. This is what I found on Sony's website:
    Software
    Supplied Software : PMB Ver.5.0 Supports Windows XP Service Pack3 (SP3)(32bit), Windows Vista Service Pack2 (SP2) (32bit), Windows 7, 64-bit editions and Starter (Edition) are not supported. Not supported by Mac OS.
    Operating System Compatibility : "Windows XP SP3 * /Windows Vista SP2 ** /Windows7 * 64-bit editions and Starter (Edition) are not supported.The Windows Image Mastering API(IMAPI)Ver.2.0 or later is required to use the function for creating discs. ** Starter (Edition) are not supported. Standard installation is required. Operation is not assured if the above OS has been upgraded or in a multi-boot environment. "
    I suspect a camera upgrade may be what you need to do.

  • Does Apple retain backups of iPad

    I downloaded some home movies onto my IMac but could not find a way to burn them to a DVD.  Does Apple have software to do this or do I need to purchase one.  If so, what is recommended.

    but could not find a way to burn them to a DVD.
    Do you want to create a video DVD that will plan on a TV set via a DVD player or just burn the video files to a data DVD disk for storage?
    If the former the read the following:
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Softwareor eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    However, there are video DVD authoring apps that are available at the App Store that will create a video DVD disk.  They won't be as extensive as iDVD but can create a simple video DVD.
    iDVD 7.1.2 is compatible with iDVD but we don't if it will be with the next system generation.

  • Is Apple censoring christian content on Apple TV?

    I recently bought an apple tv, and find that although the search function on the pod casts menu claims to access the pod-casts on the I tunes store, that many pod-casts that are available through the Store are not accessible through Apple TV. Specifically many Christian pod-casts that are very popular on the Itunes Store. Is apple censoring Christian content over Apple TV?

    Hi Chenks,
    I will contact one of the podcast creators, as I know him personally. I tried doing a search and found the following from Apple,
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html
    It only lists video as being a specific problem for formatting for apple tv.
    The apple tv specs list these formats as acceptable for audio podcasts,
    HE-AAC (V1), AAC (16 to 320 Kbps), protected AAC (from iTunes Store), MP3 (16 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, and 4), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV; Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound pass-through
    I know his mp3 podcast is MP3 16 bit in my Itunes podcast library, so I will try contacting him to find out why they will not stream to apple TV.
    If anyone else has anything enlightening to say about it I will welcome it, as it may help my conversation with him.
    In the meantime, thanks Chenk for your help.

  • Does apple reject app load pages from web?

    Hi,
    We are developing an iOS app, which loads the pages developed in web side. Web pages are created by HTML 5 and jquery mobile framework. We loads that pages by using UIWebView Component. We have controlled the web pages thru Objective C. Our App is also using push notification to alert the user on certain events.
    My question is, Does Apple reject this sort of app? Since most of the pages loads from web side.
    Thanks!

  • Does Apple's ImageKit really allow scan import into Photoshop?

    On this page Adobe claims:
    If your scanner manufacturer does not support scanning in 64-bit mode, or you have issues scanning with TWAIN, you can scan into Photoshop CS6 using Apple’s ImageKit technology, which is built into Photoshop CS6, does not need a plug-in to be installed, and provides access to a large number of scanners.
    That doesn't work with my Epson Perfection V350 Photo. I wonder if it actually works with any scanner. With Photoshop CS6 have wiped out many scanners that don't have 64-bit compliant drivers, why doesn't Adobe connect with Apple's Image Capture app? Why doesn't the V350 work with the ImageKit technology alllegedly part of Photoshop CS6?
    Adobe needs to restore the import from scanner capability that has been part of Photoshop for years.

    Hi nicmart,
    The ImageKit scanning feature in Photoshop CS6 supports exactly the same scanners as Image Capture does. Unfortunately, this feature is currently broken in Photoshop when running Mountain Lion (CS6 was released prior to the release of Mountain Lion). We are working closely with Apple to resolve the problem. This issue has been discussed in detail in several other forum threads since the release of ML. As soon as we have more information, we will let people here in the forum know.
    If you are running Lion or Snow Leopard, you should find that indeed a large number of scanners are supported without any additional software needed, and can be used to scan directly into Photoshop CS6. Apple publishes a list of hundreds of supported scanners in a tech note, which you can find at <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669>

  • Does Apple know about bug in Timer that shows minutes but counts down seconds?

    I have a couple of times changed my timer from a few minutes down past zero to 59 or so to time out about an hour.  But the timer, while still showing minutes count down seconds.  This image is a captured screen shot as it is counting down seconds.  But when I cancel the timer, I get which shows the 59 minutes I expected to get.  If I press Start at this point, it will count down seconds.  If I attempt to reproduce conditions, by going to 8 or 9 minutes, then canceling and going to 59 minutes, it works.  It may be that you have to run the timer down to alarm and then try the lower setting.

    Does Apple know about bug in Timer that shows minutes but counts down seconds?
    How would we know?  Call them and ask.

  • Does Apple Canada have the worst customer support ever?

    Yes! Ask me why...
    I'm posting here a) to warn other Mac users what to expect if you ever need customer support and b) because there's no where you can actually e-mail comments to Apple, and trying to contact customer support has been fruitless (see below).
    Here's what happened to me...
    I bought my iBook just under three years ago - a few weeks ago, the logic board went. Now, because I purchased the computer less than three years ago, that's covered under the extended warranty for iBook logic boards (see here: http://www.apple.com/support/ibook/faq/).
    Simple, right? Well, I took my computer in to my local authorized service provider about three weeks ago. They confirmed the logic board was the problem... copied my receipt for the iBook to prove date of purchase... agreed that it was covered by the warranty.
    However, when they sent all this to Apple, their reply was that it was NOT covered because it was manufactured more than three years ago (although Apple's own website says it's purchase date - not manufacture date - that's important).
    I called Apple last Monday to find out what was going on. Spoke to a nice fellow named Kevin who said he'd look into it, and call me back the next day.
    Next day passed... no call. I called Kevin back left a message, and indicated I'd like to know what was going on.
    Wednesday passed... no call. By this point, I'm getting anxious - the service provider can't move ahead without authoriztion from Apple, Apple's not returning my calls (or the service provider's) to grant authorization.
    I tried Kevin again on Thursday. Left another message. No reply.
    Tried back on Friday morning. Left another message. Still no reply.
    Called customer support again Friday night. Antoine puts me hold for a half hour. I call back, explain that I've been on hold for half an hour, ask how long the wait should be. Antoine says two or three minutes. He puts me on hold again.
    For another ten minutes.
    I call back. Antoine explains that the reason I'm on hold is probably because customer service is closed. So why was I on hold for nearly an hour listening to terrible music? That's one of the mysteries of Apple customer support...
    So here I am, with a computer that's been in the shop nearly three weeks, that can't be repaired because Apple won't honour its warranty, and no way to even find out what's going on, because Apple's customer service is such an unnavigable maze.
    The sad thing is, I usually like Apples. I was even going to buy a new one this summer.
    Now - not a chance.
    The moral of the story? If you own an Apple, pray nothing ever goes wrong with it. If you expect your computer to ever need repairs, I'd suggest getting rid of your Apple now.
    If you're considering buying an Apple - consider again.
    As for me - from now on, make mine Microsoft.
    iBook G3 700   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Does Apple Canada have the worst customer support ever?
    I doubt it.
    Seriously, would you like some help?
    Call back, and don't mess around with Customer Service. Immediately ask for Customer Relations. These are the people whose job it is to make an unhappy customer happy again. They aim to please.
    A polite, but seriously disappointed tone of voice is what you need, so take some deep breaths until you can achieve that.
    There was an article in the February, 2005, issue of Reader's Digest called "How to Complain." Please read these tips. Then call and tell Customer Relations your sad experience with Customer Service.
    How to Complain
    You call customer service to complain about a product, and you hang up angrier than when you started. That’s customer rage, a feeling experienced by millions of people with a major complaint, says Scott Broetzmann, president of an American firm that tells companies how to offer the best customer service. His secrets to getting good service:
    Have a goal
    If you want your product repaired, say so. Want an apology? Speak up.
    Keep it short
    Focus on one problem, and be succinct.
    Stick with it.
    You have to invest the time it takes. Don’t get what you want? Ask for a supervisor.
    Skip ultimatums
    Don’t threaten not to do business with them again. Why should they help you if you won’t buy from them in the future?
    Plead your case
    Many companies have information such as how much money you’ve spent with them and how often you complain. If you’re a good customer, they may be more willing to help.
    Be nice
    You’re unlikely to get what you want if you’re rude.
    Good luck!
    (P.S. Microsoft doesn't make computers; just the crappy OS that goes on them.)
