How can we bug Apple to enable temp readouts?

I've read somewhere that Apple has said that they will enable temperature readings in the new Macbook Pros if there is enough interest. How can I express my interest to them?

Even if there is no way for the software to control the fans, surely Intel must have inclduded a temperature readout of some sort for the CPU, otherwise how can they control the fans? Blocking software from accessing the temperature values seems simply stupid, imo (and either way ought to be able to be remedied by a BIOS... erm... EFI firmware upgrade?).
I was aware that the harddrive had a temp reading, though, but that's placed quite a long way from the CPU and imo is nowhere near as warm.
Still, isn't there a direct channel to Apple to voice an opinion on this? (Apart from this forum, which god knows who reads.)

  • TS4006 How can I turn on my device so I can locate my stolen I Phone??? And if not; how can I pettition APPLE that there is a defect in "Find My I Phone". If its stolen do I need device to be on in order to find????

    How can I turn on my device remotely so I can locate my stolen I Phone???
    And if there is a way but I just don't know then educate me please!!!!
    And if not then how can I petition APPLE that there is a defect in "Find My I Phone".
    If its stolen I should not need device to be on in order to find unless I can turn on remotely!!!!
    Also another defect is that if the device is locked with a code then it should be really locked......
    Why is it that you can still use buttons??????........
    You should not be able to turn off unless you have the code!!!!!!
    And with that defect corrected imagine how safe it would make the consumers if everyone knew that if a phone was locked, it was really locked!!!
    Everyone would be able to find their phones and nobody could stop them from them finding their phones!!!!!
    PROBLEMS SOLVED!!!!!! NOBODY'S I PHONE WOULD EVER BE STOLEN!!!!!!
    Does anyone know can you turn on remotely??????

    You cannot turn it on remotely. Griping and complaining won't make it any better.

    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device.

  • How can i make apple tv 3 store all my purchased movies and tv shows onto a hard drive somewhere in my house

    Currently my apple tv 3 downloads movies/shows when I want to watch them.  I'd prefer if it downloaded everything already and it is all available locally without having to download gigabytes from the internet.
    Q: How can i make apple tv 3 store all my purchased movies and tv shows onto a hard drive somewhere in my house?
    a) Impossible
    b) Link my apple tv 3 to a computer running itunes
    c) Link my apple tv 3 to my Apple Time Machine
    d) purchase an external USB drive and plug it directly to the apple tv 3
    e) purchase a NAS drive and configure the apple tv 3 to use it
    f) [your answer here]
    Thank you,

    Hi! Dwagner, once again ...
    I've just got my Mac last friday ... i'm still getting amazed with this new world to me ... eehe .. quite different ... but
    ... "i can do it, i can do it" eheeh
    i'm in that period that a new question appears at almost every mouse click ... lol
    so ... can you help me (once again) ..
    you said you had your hard drive with this settings...
    "You can partition for OSX (extended Journal) - read/write by only OSX or read only by Windows via BootCamp
    You can partition for Windows (NTFS) - readable by only Windows
    OR - you can format with ex-FAT and this is read/write capable for both operating systems."
    how did you formated the partition in NTFS ? ... on the mac? using the "disk utility" ? or did you use another program to do so ...?
    i hope i'm not "bugging" you ... this might be a silly question for most of people ... but right now ... it's a major question for me ... ehehe
    once again Obrigado (Thank You)

  • How can I get Apple to send the invoice of one of my orders?

    I ordered a MacBook Air 13 at apple store online but I haven't get the invoice of the product. How can I ask apple to send it to me?
    Thank you,
    Luiza

    Thank you for your response, Dominic. I'm in Brazil now and unfortunately I'm not able to call the 1-800 number. There is another problem, I can't solve this by viewing my order online, as I haven't inserted my apple ID to the order ...it doesn't allow me to print the invoice or do anything else about it...
    Do you know if there's any online support that I can contact?
    Thank you again!

  • How can I delete Apple ID from my old phone that it is not with me?

    How can I delete Apple ID from my old phone?

    You cannot delete Apple ID. You can change the password so the Apple ID without the correct password will be useless for others.
    If you still have the old iPhone:
    Wipe iPhone/iPad/iPod touch clean
    There are a few steps to do:
    Switch off iMessage in Settings > Messages
    Switch off FaceTime in Settings > FaceTime (iPod touch 4th Generation or later, iPhone 4 or later and iPad 2 or later)
    Delete iCloud in Settings > iCloud > Delete Account
    Finally Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
    If device is registered: Un-register your device: https://supportprofile.apple.com
    Now you can sell/give.

  • How can i buy Apple Wireless arabic Keyboard in Malaysia

    i want to buy Mac 5K but i need arabic keyboard which is not available in Malaysia apple store and it is available in USA apple store ...  how can i buy Apple Wireless arabic Keyboard in Malaysia ? or shipping to Malaysia ?

    Apple stores do not ship outside their own country, so you cannot get it from Apple.  Nobody in these forums represents any store, so you have to contact computer dealers in Malaysia or elsewhere directly yourself and see if they can make a special order for you.
    There is no need to use an Apple wireless keyboard, any other one will also work.
