HT201342 So when is Apple going to allow us to merge emails? All my apps are STILL under my gmail address!!!!
I still have the irritating two emails that I have to sync my apps to -- my original gmail account and now an iCloud account. This stinks.
When apple first brought the cloud to market most individuals ended up with TWO apple ids. The .me one that they needed (or thought they did) to set up their original account and whatever one they had had for years buying music in the iTunes store (in my case, it's a gmail account). Many of us still have those two IDs and Apple has never allowed us, that I am aware of, to merge the emails. Most of my music and apps are on my iphone with my gmail account and I sync that one through the iMac. After I do that, I have to go to my phone and sync it with the .me (now .cloud) account to get those few apps I have under that email account. It's ridiculous! In my husband's case he originally had a problem with dupes in his calendar and had to have that fixed through the genius's at the Apple store. The geniuses agreed it was a shame but said they were unaware of any plans for us to be able to merge accounts.

Had to change Apple ID when updating to IOS 5; all my apps are still associated with old ID
I was forced to change my Apple ID to an email address when updating to IOS 5; now I have lots of problems because all my apps are associated with my old ID (for some reason they did not update to the new ID name). How do I fix this?

I am sick of dealing with this issue. I wish not that I had never even started using any Apple products, beginning with iTunes. WHEN IS APPLE GOING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AND MAKE ITUNES SOMEHOW COMPATIBLE WITH DEP IN WINDOWS VISTA?
That being said, Is there any way to resolve this? What I did in the past is completely wipe ALL Apple files from my computer, and install an older version of iTunes. It was at least functional. It seems that any version of iTunes 10.0 or more recent is not compatible with the Data Execution Prevention in Windows. You can not remove iTunes from DEP, yet DEP prevents iTunes from running.
The down side is that I can't get the latest updates for my iPhone or iPod. Now, I have a new phone for my husband that needs syncing on my iTunes, and I can't do that because iTunes won't even open.
Can somebody help me out with this, please?OK, lets do a complete overhaul to make sure it's working ok.
First to check your Windows system file for any corruption:
Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
type in
sfc /scannow
let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
Restart the computer.
Start iTunes and see if it is ok.
If it doesn't, will have to go through the whole process of uninstalling and installing acccording to the following steps:
1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
(Referenceinstructions from Apple article listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 to remove all components)
3. Reboot your computer. Next, download iTunes from here:http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and install from scratch -
ssince updating my IPad to IOS8 Safari does not work properly ie Marriott website it tells me no server is available yet Google works and other web search have the same problem when is Apple going to get fixes out soon I hope.Also why can't we contact Apple direct on this matter ?
Try some basic troubleshooting steps. Clear Safari, force close the app and reset the iPad.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
In order to close apps in iOS 8, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
There re are ways to contact Apple directly. Look here for help.

When is Apple going to fix the problems with FCP and Leopard
Apple,
This is a nightmare.
I wish I never did the upgrade.
It's horrible that Apple released an OSX update that doesn't work with some of the most used Apple applications.
I don't know what I should do.
Compressor doesn't work, export using Quicktime is having problems...and that's just what I've found so far.
When is Apple going to fix this mess?
HingefactorDid you heed ANY of the warnings that were posted here, on LAFCPUG.org, or the CreativeCow.net? We gave many pointers on what to do before you upgrade, so that if you do run into issues with the new (and you WILL run into issues with the new OS) you could always go back to the stable version.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1185645&tstart=150
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1196292&tstart=300
Apple will fix it when they fix it...that's all we can say. Keep sending in your issues and when they can, they will issue updates.
The rule of thumb is that if you have a good working edit system, don't mess with it. The machine that I use to earn a living, that is still on 10.4.9 and FCP 5.1.4. My laptop, that I use occasionally for editing, but mainly for e-mail, word processing, web surfing, that I updated. And I am testing FCP on this. So far, I am not suffering any issues.
If you backed up your system, you could have gone back to it.

When is Apple going to fix the problem with slow Time Machine backups with Mavericks?
I have been with Apple tech support and they got my Time Machine working by doing a spotlight re-indexing and a safe boot. This worked for about three days and I am back to very slow backups. It is impossible for Time Machine to back up every hour when it takes six hours to do the back up. I don't want to take hours to re-index with spotlight all the time. I think taking six hours to do an incremental backup is a bit much. I see that there are many people that have this trouble and it all started with an upgrade to Mavericks. The question is when is Apple going to fix this problem of slow backups with Time Machine for Mavericks. I have wasted more time than I care to. I am think of going back to Windows. I need good solid backups of my machine and Apple has taken it away with the new Mavericks. Oh, I am using the UBS 3.0 connection so the drive should not be the problem. Also this has occurred in about the last five months, so I am not sure this problem was in the original Marvericks.
Allen Thanks for your reply. All I can say is several months ago Time Machine quit working in a reasonable manner. Right now I have a Time Machine backup that has been running all night and still has three hours to go to backup 6 GB of data. I am using a OWC 1.5 TB drive connected directly to my MacBook with a USB 3.0 connection. In the resent past I have added Dropbox, GoogleDrive and a MAMP server on which I am using a program called Learning With Text from Sourceforge. There have been a lot of questions on the forum about people having very slow Time Machine back ups, so it appears to be a general problem. I should also state I am getting this very slow backup after doing the Spotlight re-indexing and the Safe Restart procedure that was told to me by apple support. I have a 750 GB drive in my MacBook Pro which I am constantly trying to keep at a 5% level of free space. This might be a problem also. However, I am working on a lot of things and like to have a lot of things on my drive. Also the heavily loaded drive has not be a problem in the past. This slow backup business started about three months ago, so something has happen in a very short time period. Now it seems even the procedure that Apple support gave me is not working. Currently I am in China and it is difficult to interact with Apple support to solve this problem, but because I am in China having my computer backed up is critical. I have run the EtreCheck and am attaching the results below. I would appreciate any suggestions. If necessary I will clear out more of my hard drive if that appears to be a solution. The Time Machine drive was recently reformed so I only have a few backups on it. I also don't run the Time Machine all the time as I don't want multi-hour backups running all the time. I run it every few days.

Frustration with lack of support for Flash Player on IPad. When is Apple going to support Flash?
When is Apple going to support Flash Player on IPad?
The majority of sites that have multimedia content rely on Flash. Safari users are missing out on tons and tons of content that depends on Flash. I have and love my IPad 2. I should be able to use this awesome thing to get at anything I need to on the Internet. Yet when I need to access Flash sites, I am forced back to my windows PC.
Please Apple Make it happen! I'm tired of being ragged by android users on this. You need to fix it.xx66stangxx wrote:
Flash is a dieing technology.
Really it's not seeming that way.
In fact, since the iPad release, and Steve Jobs famously declairing the death of Flash, Flash useage has increased.
Check it out 95.75% of all internet connected devices have the Flash Player.
http://www.statowl.com/flash.php
(the mac only has 12% share, it must be totally doomed then)
IOS Apps are now made using Adobe Flash
http://thenextweb.com/apple/2011/09/09/the-best-selling-ipad-app-on-the-app-stor e-was-created-with-adobe-flash/
And so are Android, Blackberry etc.
And HTML5 was supposed to be Apple's answer to all the missing content, yet here, 3 years later, HTML5 is no where to be seen, and lacks support/performance to compete with Flash.
http://getmoai.com/images/banners/mobilegaming-html5-vs-alternatives-011112-moai .jpg
Just look at how when you step outside the reality distortion field, things look much different. Look at HTML5 performance compared to Flash.... wasn't HTML5 supposed to outperform and save us from dead batteries? Well even 3 years after Steve Jobs claims it's still using 5x more resources than Flash.
This demo shows 16,250 sprites animating at 60fps using the Flash player, something HTML5 can't even do with less than 100 sprites.
http://www.bytearray.org/?p=4074
HTML5 is a joke, Flash is real, and is providing real content to real people right now. If you as an Apple owner believe the ownership of an IOS device is worth this loss, then more power to you. -

My MacBook Pro 17" early 2011(built March) and my new OCZ sata III 6G are not working together, when is Apple going to admit there is a problem with the Intel's 6 Series Chipset. In System Information it says "Link Speed: 6 Gigabit" which is sata III and in my MacBook Pro it does not work.
Now MacBook Pro 17" early 2011 built May onward do not have this problem it was fixed in the Intel's 6 Series Chipset. (So there is a problem). Cam I have my MacBook Pro fixed please.After biting the bullet and ordering more RAM, my computer now is working a ton better. So that must have been the main issue. With 8 GB RAM, I can now even run Parallels fluidly (better than my work PC!) where before simple things like logging in to my MBP after reboot could take forever.
The place I went to had several other people getting RAM upgrades at the same time as me, so between this and other comments I've seen in discussions here and elsewhere on the Internets, I take it to mean that either Apple should bump up the base RAM on its new machines, and/or stop charging so much for additional RAM.
I refused to believe a Pro machine bought with Lion installed would come with too little RAM for light to medium usage, but it was apparently the case. I'll mark this as a correct answer and hope some other poor soul will come across this thread and be helped by it. -

When is Apple going to fix WiFi issues with OS3.0
Since upgrading to OS3.0 on both my original iPhone and my new 3G S I constant have issues with maintaing strong signal strength with WiFi. In areas of my home where I always had full service I'm lucky to get any at all. I can also be standing right next to my airport device and only get one bar.
Apple, when are you going to acknowledge this problem and fix it???Hi
Here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2044754&start=1080&tstart=0
is the ongoing discussion about this problem with more than 175000 views and 1000 entries, which has been moved around in the forum.
This thread-starters problem is real for many, really many iPhone users - and Apple replaces their phones, although nobody have any official comments from Apple.
My unprofessional guess is that it seem like 3.0 provoked a hardware failure, like overheating or something on the wifi chip, and there seem that there is no going back - your wifi is dead. No upgrade, (and if you did 3.1 there is no down-grade possible) will fix it. Leaving your phone off-off for a while and then restart it, may bring your wifi alive for less than a minute, but after that it fail to detect anything.
There is a feedback center which you can try to contact Apple with the problem, if not, contact your sales-point and get your phone replaced if you are still under warranty.
Good luck

When is Apple going to FIX ALU?
This is a great app /utility with use in multiple programs. When's Apple going to get off their buts and fix it?
Your right!! I should have given details.
I don't like the new music app for iOS 5.
You need to constantly use iTunes to change play list content etc.
Podcasts won't play in a loop.
Even the iPhone has more control in the music app.
I wish Apple had given more music tools instead of removing them.
I am having a hard time finding the feedback form. Can you help with a link?
I'll bookmark it for future use.
