Has apple addressed the problems with iCloud and iCal?

I can see there have been lots of complaints about iCal errors in trying to sync on icloud. I'm not finding any solutions to the issues that are clearly affecting a lot of people. Any one know what's going on?

final cut pro 4.5 and final cut express 3 both seem to have the same dropped frames/capture issue once you upgrade to 10.4.9, something to do with spotlight.

Has Apple fixed the problem with 4G cellular connection?

Has Apple fixed the problem with 4G cellular connection on the iPad 3?

Cellular connection problem was for US connection in Houston, Texas. Have an iPad 2 which functions perfectely on Wi-Fi or 3G. Bought an iPad 3 strictly to get the increased speed from the 4G LTE connection. Purchased on with the AT &T cellular. Wi-Fi functions fine, but 4G LTE connection is terrible when it connects at all. Went to AT&T and they said no problems with service in my area, but never get over 2 bars and most times, Web pages load very slow or will hang and not load at all. Went to the Apple store and they said it was AT&T network problem and went to AT&T and they said no problems with their service. Went to the Apple communities forum here and discovered that many people were having the same problems with the 4G LTE cellular connection on their iPad 3's. Didn't seem to matter if it was AT&T or Verizon. So I decided that I would just return the unit and wait for Apple to fix the problem. Hence my question.
Appreciate very much your time in responding to my question.

Has Apple resolved the problems with the 23" display?

I want to buy a 23" cinema display but the color problem (pinkish hue) seems to still exist. Has Apple still not resolved this problem?
If this is the case, I'll buy the 20" display which I believe does not have any problems. Can someone confirm this?

There has not been any indication from Apple that any chnages have been made in the displays other than price cuts. There were some minor spec changes (which were "un-announced") but nothing about the panels or the many issues that have been discussed here since the introduction of these units.

Problems with iCloud and iCal

I started using iCloud about a month ago...so far it has been quite the headache. I like the concept I put an appointment on one of my devices and it shows up on the rest (iphone, ipad, iMac). Just recently, when I open iCal on my iMac, all my appointments are gone! I have to then go to System Preferences and recheck the calendar to go to iCloud. And after a bit, then all my appointments reappear. This is getting old. It's defeating the purpose of using iCloud. My question is does anyone know of a glitch that is causing this? I'm about ready to dump iCloud and go back to synching with iTunes. Thank you!

I've now sorted the calendar issue and logged out of iCloud. Thanks to this link:

No more iCloud for me...
Would still be interested if anyone else has experienced the mail bug...

HT1222 Has Apple acknowledged the problems with Security Update 2012-001?

I've read a multitude of user forum comments about this update breaking user software, but have not found a single comment by an Apple representative.

Howdy,
Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
You might wish to read:
http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
- You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
- Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
- Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
- Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.
Links for 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1:

Has Apple acknowledged the problem yet with itunes aborting preview of songs after about 10 seconds on windows 7 and if so is there an answer other than ipconfig?

Has Apple acknowledged the problem yet with itunes aborting preview of songs after about 10 seconds on windows 7 and if so is there an answer other than ipconfig? IPConfig /flushdns doesn't help at all. Until they fix it I will be previewing and buying my songs thru Amazon.

Doublechecking ... do you still get that if you update to iTunes 10.6.3.25 (just released today)?

Why has Apple not addressed the problems with its own software?

Since I seem to have made the fatal mistake of upgrading my lovely iMac to Snow Leopard, most of my iLife 09 products have ceased working. In particular iDVD, where as before on faithful Leopard it did its job 100% it now decides to crash whenever it feels like it, leaving me with a third party application to use. Myself, along with approx 2000 other users have the same problem, so come on Apple, why the problems with your own software?? and why are we still waiting??

Hi hipster36
Welcome to apple discussions. Question for you: Is your mac intel based?
If not, what's the objective in upgrading to Snow Leopard as opposed to continuing to work perfectly within Leopard? What added features were you considering to upgrade to? Are there any benefits in doing this for your own mac (even if it is intel based)?
It's wise to approach all upgrades with caution (meaning always back up your current / working HD).
Frankly, the way I upgrade is to clone my existing hard drive and then boot to the clone. Thereafter, I install the latest upgrade or OS (assuming it works well on the clone). I guess what I'm saying is to never upgrade without backing up and performing a test drive of the latest OS before you opt to alter your main hard drive. One can't assume that the latest and greatest Mac OS will continue to work fine on a mac which didn't first ship with this particular OS.
This latest Mac OS /Snow Leopard is a bold step forward for apple. It's bold step forward in that it excludes all non-intel based macs.

HT204053 I want to be able to setup a generic corporate Apple ID to use with icloud and Find my Iphone, that will allow me to have more than 10 devices assigned to the ID. What do I do?

I want to be able to setup a generic corporate Apple ID to use with iCloud and Find my iPhone, that will allow me to have more than 10 devices assigned to the ID. How do I go about creating this account?

I'm not sure if I understand your question, but if you create a new iCloud account with a different ID your existing ID isn't effected by this. It will continue to work as it does now, you will just have an additional Apple ID. If you have an earthlink email address you can continue to use it as a separate account, and it can continue to be your default account if you set it to be (in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account). If I'm misunderstanding your question, please explain further.

Why is apple releasing the ipad4 witha new and inproved wifi attena without addressing the wifi issue in the ipad3

Why is apple releasing the ipad4 witha new and inproved wifi attena without addressing the wifi issue in the ipad3

Jim Level 5 person ....I am very happy for you that your usage will not be affected, please accept my congratulations.
Now I have to point out that going ballistic has certain connotations but posting on an internet forum is not one of them.
I appear to be one of thousands who are all expressing their outrage in a rational and intelligent manner which cannot be said for your lebvel 4 + collegues on this forum.
Finally there has been an ongoing issue wiith the iPad 3 Wifi on certain wifi only models , I have not encountered it and it seems clear neither have you. That of course does not discount the fact that many others have experienced this issue , an issue which may reveal itself to you or I in the future particularly as I have only been using mine for a fortnight.

10.4.11 Has Apple addressed/fixed issues with the latest update to Tiger?

Like many of you, I installed the 10.4.11 update last weekend with disastrous results. I eventually had to Archive and Install and my machine seems to be recovered. Has anybody had this problem and gone on to try the update a second time with better results ?? Any words of wisdom?? or had some sort of feedback from Apple to indicate they have or are going to resolve the problems with this update.

+I just posted this on the thread that seemed geared to those who "had success" (many more than half had issues) with the recent update after pi55ing and moaning due to crashing several times while trying to post there. Subsequently I found this thread and a bit of absoultion. I have eliminated the links, thinking them redundant but they are posted to that thread.+

A little story, when I first tried to install Jaguar on my then Beige (Yeah, remember them!) G3 MT, it took me a full six months to get that "Darn Cat" in that house! Oh, how I sweated and swore, you talk about "legacy", I waved every "dead chicken" that was suggested to no avail. Ended up that before I bought the unit someone had switched out the CD/ROM for one from one year later, still Apple issue, mind you. I sent to OpAmp and got an original and "The Cat" slid in as quick as grease through a goose. That's how tightly wound Apple was and still is in many ways and is why they stopped the clones. This was one of a slew of many little things you had to get used to in "Mac Land".
One other small thing you used to do a "clean install", you still can, but under OS 9, after you were satisfied (Conflict Catcher made things ever so easy!) all was peachy, you could simply trash your Previous System Folder and get back some valuable disk space. Well not to long after my success with the install of Jaguar and still not understanding OS X at all, I was still working mainly in OS 9, I did a Clean Install on my OS X, horsed around with settings which was difficult without Conflict Catcher and bravely trashed my Prev Sys Folder. Don't ever, EVER do that. What is a seemingly empty shell but for redundant Apps and meaningless abbreviations, is indeed a necessary if gigabyte eating Albatross you are doomed to carry!
My point with these two parables is that we are creatures of trust and habit, living on borrowed time. We have been blessed with a computer system that is virtually foolproof given certain caveats, caveats if adhered to even marginally would guarantee success. I my self have gotten into some very bad habits of late and think that this may be the cause of my computers malaise.
Drop to your knees and be grateful you don't have a PC (shudder!)! Yes Virginia, there is an Insanity Clause! I just installed WinXP on an Intel Mac, and after it was over all I wanted was a stiff drink and a shower!

Has anyone had the problem with their iPhone 5 where some people cannot receive texts from you? And if so, is there a fix?

Has anyone had the problem of not being able to send texts to certain people?

Here is another screenshot. In this example, I did 'Get Info' on one of the goofy ones, and it shows that this Wolfmother song is sorted by the Eagles. ***?

Has Apple acknowledged a problem with v1.1 re:Video yet?

Speculation about what Apple is or is not going to do is frowned upon here and topics like this are locked.
Just like this one.

The problem with ALAssetsLibrary and Location Services

I have developed a photo app for the iPhone, released a couple of days ago, that's doing rather good in the App Store, but would probably do a lot better if it weren't for the negative reviews saying that they can't understand why the app wants access to Location Services to be able to select photos from the photo gallery.
The app lets users select photos from their gallery, which they then can style and edit in different ways. To do this I use the ALAssetsLibrary class. So far so good. The problem with the ALAssetsLibrary class is that if I wish to use it to access photos on the device, the user must give the app access to Location Services, as well. Why, you ask? Well, because photos in the gallery might possibly include information on when and where the photo was taken. If the user doesn't give the app access to Location Services, the app won't be able to access the photos at all.
In my app I'm not interested in the location services data at all - I just want the user to be able to select photos. But as far as I know there is just no way to read photos without Location Services enabled. As a developer I can sort of buy this limitation - because I understand why it exists - but apparently my users can not. And as a user myself I have to agree with them. Why on earth do they/I have to allow the app to access Location services for me to be able to select photos? It doesn't make sense!
At the moment I'm getting a lot of negative reviews saying "I downloaded and deleted. The app wants access to Location Services when I try to select a photo. This seems fishy. Don't download it". I agree. It DOES seem fishy, but I couldn't care less about their location data, and although I try to inform the user about this in the app, a lot of people doesn't seem to care, or understand why this is the way it is.
So, what's the point of this rant? Well, to start with, wouldn't it be better if iOS asked something like "This app needs access to your photos" instead of "This app needs access to your location", when using the ALAssetsLibrary?
Also, instead of using the ALAssetsLibrary I could have used the UIImagePickerController - if only it had supported landscape orientation. Why, why, WHY doesn't it? My app is landscape only, and therefore I had to build my own image picker functionality, instead of using the default one. Portrait only is a very stupid limitation, if you ask me.
Finally, is there SOME way at all to access the photos on the device without requiring Location Services as well?
Thank you for listening,
Andreas Lindahl

Unfortunately, there is no way to directly access the photo library without prompting the user for Location Services permission. I just posted an article on my blog about this very issue (and referenced your post): http://blog.mikeswanson.com/post/18269837647/location-services. I hope that this situation can be improved in a future release of iOS.

PLS IS MY APPLE ID THE SAME WITH ICLOUD ACCOUNT

PLEASE I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHETHER APPLE ID IS THE SAME WITH ICLOUD ACCOUNT? ALSO, IS ITUNE ACCOUNT THE SAME WITH ICLOUD ACCOUNT OR ID ACCOUNT? PLEASE WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES OR SIMILARITIES?

Hi @ramatu ,
An iCloud account uses an Apple ID for identification. See this article for reference -
Creating an iCloud account: Frequently Asked Questions
Likewise, the iTunes store uses an Apple ID for purchases. It does not have to be the same Apple ID that you use for your iCloud account. See this article -
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

How do I know if I have a wifi problem with my new iPad 3 (it seems very slow) and how does one address the problem with apple if there is one?

I just read about the possible issue that some folks are having with their new iPad wifi (my seemed to be running very slowly but I thought that perhaps it was just me overreacting). How do I know if I have a definite problem, and what is my recourse? Do I need to take it to an Apple store for testing? I have apple care which I assume addresses stuff like this. Thoughts? Thx so much.

Your iPad is covered by the normal warranty for one year. If you have AppleCare that extends the coverage. If you feel there is a problem with your wifi reception visit an Apple store with your iPad for a consultation. Be sure to make an appointment before you go.

Has apple addressed the problems with iCloud and iCal?
