How come Apple are slow on upgrading OpenGL?

I'm curious on why Apple are slow on upgrading OpenGL on OS X?
Yosemite supports up to OpenGL 4.1 and OpenGL is up to 4.5 now?
Would be great if Apple could update OpenGL little more often, but I guess that is just wishful thinking on my part.

I'm running 10.10.3 and have this for OpenGL as reported int eh Software/Frameworks of the System Information.
OpenGL:
OpenGL:

That's the extent of my OpenGL knowledge.

Nobody here is responsible for what is or is not available in any country. I believe it is a software licensing thing.

HT4623 With the update of my iphone5 I lost features in my audiobooks. Before the chapters were listed with their descriptions - that's gone!! How come Apple?

With the update of my iphone5 I lost features in my audiobooks. Before the chapters were listed with their descriptions - that's gone!! How come Apple?

Okay, that is the latest iOS. As far as shortcuts are concerned, they should be available. Go to Settings, General, Keyboard, Shortcuts. You should find the settings and area to enter new ones there. The area to set what numbers to receive calls from in DND mode are in Settings, Notifications, Do Not Disturb, and then then Allow Calls From.
Does this help?

HT1498 How come Apple TV charges are different on my visa bill?

How come when I rent a film on Apple TV it says it cost £3.49 but on my visa statement it says £6.98???

Sounds as though you rented it twice.

High CPU load and com.apple.ImageCaptureExtension2 crash after upgrade

After upgrading my Macbook Air from Lion to Mountain Lion, the system has a very high cpu load, and the crash reporter is the process that causes thee high load. In the error log I see this entry several times per second:
17.08.12 12:58:46,011 ReportCrash[5998]: com.apple.message.domain: com.apple.crashreporter.writereport.crash

com.apple.message.result: NO

I investigated a bit more and recovered, that it has something to do with the printer drivers. When I remove all printers from setting, everything is fine. As soon as I add a printer (Brother MFC 9440CN printer/scanner, printer driver provided by Mountan Lion), the crash reporter starts it's work and the error log is full of those entries.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Marcus

I did more exploration and found the cause of this, but I don't know how to fix it:
I removed all Brother and Lexmark printer drivers and rebooted (and also tested with a virtual machine using 10.8.0 as guest os that never had any printer installed). As soon as I enter the printer settings and press the "+", the crashes begin, so it looked like the bonjour one of the printers announcing themselves via Bonjour were causing this.
When watching a picture in the preview app the same happend. We have two multi function printers in our network, the already mentioned brother printer and a Lexmark X204N. Switching off the Lexmark (which wasn't installed on my Mac) solved the problem. Switching off the printer is no solution in our office (it's our fax device and main printer), but switching off mDNS on the Lexmark also solved it. But this can only be a workaround.
Is this a known problem with Lexmark devices and Mountain Lion (it works fine with machines using Lion)? Are there any fixes known? It's just the Lexmark device announing itself via Bonjour that causes trouble, even if the driver is not installed.

How come apple is incorporating twitter into its computers operating software but the company does not have an official twitter account themselves?

As you all hopefully know, apple has announced their new operating software being released this summer, mountain lion. It states that they are incorporating twitter in to the software to that by a simple click you can upload items to twitter. Same thing goes for the iOS devices. Since apple is doing so much with twitter how come they dont have an official company twitter page?

The iTunes Store has several:

How come Apple Store does not sell 6 Core or 12 Core Mac Pro?

It was around March they had Apple Mac Pro 12 Core for sale but now they don't how come?
I tried looking on other websites and they said it's discontinued.
I tried eBay they have a few new ones for sale.

Just "Select" one of the new black cylinder models. Then you get a new screen that allows you to specify "features". One feature is 12 cores.
The cost of that Mac is nearly double the cost of a 4 core. Are you sure you are doing enough Ray Tracing or Compressor or similar work to keep that many cores busy?
For about the same money as the 12-core, you could have two complete four-core models.
For only US$500 more than the four core, you could have a 6-core, a nice balance between practical everyday capability and some modest ability to stretch into the heavy rendering work.

How come apple tv resets itself while watching a program?

How come the unit resets itself while watching a program? It is all good then the screen just goes blank!
Please Help!

Just because you have a strong signal it doesn't mean you don't have interference.
However do you have any long audio tracks you can try, you could try stitching 10 or so together in QuickTime and testing to see if the problem persists.

How come Apple can not do it anything when one of the products are stolen .

Con tanta tecnologia no pueden hacer nada ...es increible!
My son just bought his new iPod touch 3 weeks ago and got stolen in the subway station ....Apple can not do anything?

How can you expect apple to track a million devices that are stolen every year across the globe? You had find my iphone on it, you can see if someone connects to a wifi source. If its not connected to the internet or gps how can it be tracked? You cant do it. The best things you can do it hope it shows up on find my iphone if you had it ON and change your itunes passwords. Sorry

HT1349 how come Apple Apps are sometimes complete rubbish and do not work - do Apple not check what you can buy in the Apple store?

I have just bought a thermometer on Apple Store and it is useless - do Apple not check the apps they sell? I had to pay for this one.

Take it up with the developer. Apple did not make the app.
Yes, Apple does have a screening process or else there would be floods of scams. When you get your email receipt, click the Report a Problem link, follow the steps and say the item was not as described (depending on how you define "useless"). Sometimes a bad one slips through.

HT204391 How come Apple can't use its own software to create this guide as a pdf or an iBook?

Does Apple actually use its own software?
The woefully few manuals it manages to provide now are all created in Indesign and desperately need the critical eye of an editor to correct the errors, ommisions, obsolescence and plain confusing statements.
As Apple's efforts grow ever more obscure, awkward, contradictory and difficult to use, it tells it Users next to nothing about how they all work.

LOL, I saw the points tally and thought at first you were opening a thread to motivate some ideas to pass back!
I assumed also that the points did not come from iBA and like others... were experienced and skilled dealing with Pages etc,.
Fact is Apple cloned iBA from Pages - which is basically a sound concept and suits a purpose.. but the cry as always been... "give us a decent manual". Apple in their wisdom apparently did not conceive that people would use iBA having never used pages. I actually purchased iWorks back in 2005 for my then new PowerPC G5 10.4.11 tried it and went back to MS Publisher!
18 months or more on depending on iBA's release, most users are pretty much capable now but a few new comers from other software packages do seen to have trouble getting information to start up.
From Apples point of view.. their project worked, the software as it is as flooded the book store with product dedicated to iPads and therfore income for Apple only. I have no doubt the next update will deal with some of the isssues sent in as feedback.
Meanwhile, welcome to the club.........

How come there are paid apps in the top free category? (iwork apps)

i was looking in the appstore and saw that the iwork apps are in the top free category why is that?

They are paid apps that are free under two sets of circumstances; they are free is you have bought a new Mac since 1 OCT 2013, and they are free if you owned the previous version of these apps, iWork '09 and have upgraded to OS X Mavericks 10.9.

How come Nokia are not now selling N97 32 GB?

I love my N97...still think it better than all offerings since....but I can't buy one anymore...why is this?
Is it because when you use the compare feature on the Nokia product finder it demonstrates this still Nokias best phone...but they are not making enough profit on it?
My much loved one has been in the wars a bit and I'd like to get a new one...Does anyone know how/where I can?
Does anyone know when the first of the promised windows OS phones are coming out?

Hi el_dred,
Just have a look to this link. You will find that the Lumia 920 has 32GB in mass storage memory (exactly as the N97) and 7GB in skydrive. Lumia phones have a qwerty keyboard, just switch the language.
