How do I let Apple know they need to include an option for controlling the insertion point cursor in system preferences?
As described above.
I have spent far too much time investigating this issue! All I would like to do is have the insertion point cursor (the 'I' shaped text thing) not dissapear when navigating text in a word document with the arrow keys.
Some forums say it's an apllication issue, i.e. microsoft, others say you used to be able to do it in older versions of mac os'.
This isn't a problem for Mac programmes. Obviously it is an issue when Microsoft programmes cross over to Mac. If the computer was a PC then I could customise the blinking rate, turn it on or off etc under the control panel options. With a Mac running MS Office I have not got this option.
So how do I go about telling Apple of my displeasure? So hopefully for future editions of OS or Office for Mac this very minor but completely infuriating problem gets ironed out?
Cheers x
Thank you Ralph n Kurt, very quick off the mark boys, well done
Just checking in to inform you that today, after putting up with the issue for over a year, it has sorted itself out, MIRACLE! I don't know how but I've got a fully trackable insertion point when I navigate with my arrow keys!!
Do you think it's the big-wigs (because I complained to both Mac n MS) tweaking my computer behind the secenes? and if so which one would've done it? My money's on the geniusii.
Either way I am well chuffed and thanks again!

How do I let Apple know there is a print problem since the latest update?
Hi,
I am unable to print since I installed the latest version of Mac OS X 10.5.7 over the weekend. I use a Lexmark X5470 all-in-one printer. I had the same problem when I switched from Tiger to Leopard until Apple produced a patch. I tried it on both of my computers and I have the same problem on both.
How can I let Apple know that the same problem has occurred with the latest Mac OS X 10.5.7 update?
In the printing window I get two messages. The first says the there is a color missing , to delete and re-install the driver. The second, There is a problem communicating with the printer. Make sure the printer is powered on and connected to the computer. Delete or stop the job and try again.
Thank you for your help!Allanfrance wrote:
Hi Nerowolfe,
I contacted Lexmark, it was them who told me to let Apple know about this problem. They were not aware of the 10.5.7 update????
That probably explains it. Sometimes a minor bug in 3rd party software becomes a problem after a system update catches it.
From all that I know (which is not much) it is not a problem that is specific to my macbook or g5. I will try to post the issue in bugreport.
They usually let you know if it has been previously reported and eventually, the disposition of the request.
You might try uninstalling and reinstalling the printer.
Did you use the full combo manual download? That would be another thing to do - you can reapply it over the one you have.
Also run DU and repair permissions before and after any update. -
used "find my iphone app" and now that I have found my iphone, no one can hear me talk? how do I let Apple know I have found my Iphone so I can use my Iphone?
so frustrated.Well its defintiely nothing that Apple can activate to fix this. They would be able to troubleshoot with you though. This may be able to be resolved if its something software related.

PS It seems that my warranty has expired so I don't have direct access to their support ?! HEEEEEEEEELP! THAAAAAANX!!!!!

HD file corrupt - how do I let Apple know?
Game of Thrones Ep 1.1 - Winter is Coming HD file is corrupt and won't download. I paid for the HD file and would like to get that, and I don't know how to let apple know about this problem. I can't find any contact information.
If it's something that you've bought then you should be able to use the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1933

How do I let Apple Know I REFUSE to use Icloud?
How do we get through to Apple and let them know that the iCloud is just a bad Idea and that if I am forced to use it, I am just switching to a Droid where they don't try and invade your life?
Isnt the first thing an android device asks you to do is set up a google/gmail account? Same thing. It used to be that way, I had 3 android devices over the years in conjunction with my Apple ones (1 currently through work, not my choice) and they all asked me to set up a google account before completing setup. Just sayin.

I set my phone to only ask for the password a minute after locking it, and no matter what I do to it, I always get asked for the password right after locking. I just wanted to bring this to Apple's attention.

HT204406 How do I let itunes know they are missing the end of a piece of music?
Prokofiev symphony #2 by Gergiev, the Allegro is missing the last few bars. I have tried downloading it again, but I think it is their file. Thank you.
If it's re-downloaded in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that track and use the 'Report a Problem' link (iTunes support should reply within, I think, 24 to 48 hours).
Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page. -
I'm trying to download apps on my new iphone 5s, and I forgot the answers to my security questions. The reset e-mail was never sent. How do I notify apple that they never sent me the reset e-mail? Thank you.
Hello there, movies989.
The following Knowledge Base article provides some great steps for issues with Apple ID security questions and contacting Apple Support:
Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665
Of particular use in your case:
What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password
contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro. -

How do I notify Apple that I need a Refund of the $100.00 that I paid for fifty gigs of iCloud storage that I can't use because I thought I would be able to put my music library on it and found out I can't? Only iTunes purchases are capable of use in iCloud presently.

Is Apple providing any karaoke service such as selling karaoke software, whole set of karaoke hardware or even karaoke store? If yes, please give me information on this; If no, let me know if there are similar karaoke services providing in the future.
No, Apple does not. What other companies might provide what you're looking for I don't know. Try searching the web for "karaoke software" or something similar.

Apple does not unlock iPhones. This is and always has been controlled by the cellular provider. Contact them to determine their unlocking policy and if you qualify.

Let Apple Know if Your Display Has Problems: LINK
Please let Apple know directly if you are experiencing the problem with lines:

G4 867 Quicksilver Mac OS X (10.4.3)No problem. I think until a large number of people "Officially" complain, there will not be an "Official" response. These boards are good for information but are not the right mechanism for reporting problems with hardware to Apple.
