HT6162 7.1: When will Apple fix Music/playlist sync? It's been 7 months since IOS 7 came out

This is a common problem that has been plaguing IOS 7 years from the getgo. When you sync via cable with itunes, my iphone deletes songs I want, adds songs I don't want and makes the newly added songs undeletable. I know all of the hackish "fixes" to this problem but I was really hoping apple would cleanly fix the bugs that are occurring here given this new big update. It doesn't look like this has not happened. I'm writing the community here to see if they are also having the same music problems occuring after 7.1. Hopefully some apple employees will see this as well.

I've had this problem since I got IOS 7 and it drives me crazy. I kept asking friends online if they had the same problem and nobody did.. Then I found several threads online where people were talking about this issue and offering fixes. I tried many fix attempst to no avail, and then I just gave up. Some people are saying that Apple knows about this problem and may be waiting for IOS 8 to release a fix with is total BS. Why would we have to wait that long to fix such an important issue?
I miss the time when I could listen to my music playlists on my phone. Those were the days...

HT1338 When will Apple fix the sound sync problem in PhotoBooth video?

Suggestions online are
(1) reboot with cmd/opt/p/r This is not a solution but a temporary fix, a sign that Mountain Lion is not working well!
(2) reset the sound config in Audio settings. This works briefly, again a temporary fix.
Isn't it time that Mountain Lion was working?

so that means.. from itunes..or not from itunes?
sounds like 3rd party music then..
SO i would delete them from the itunes library and re add them to the itunes library.
TO test this out you should delete ONE SONG or ONE ALBUM and test that ONE SONG or ONE ALBUM only to see if they sync to the device..
are you using a windows or mac? Updated itunes?
need details on the Configuration...

When will Apple fix the "Show my caller ID" glitch that effects service reception? IOS7 has done nothing if not made it worse

I have downloaded IOS7 specifically to try and solve this annoying glitch that disables the "Show my caller ID" and effects my service reception, I know it effects it as when I have no service I can guarantee that the "show my caller ID" selection is disabled, when I turn it on miraculously I have service once again.
Such a stupid little problem that surely is easily rectified.
When will Apple fix this????

Thanks for that but unfortunately been there, got the T-shirt, they replaced the phone with a new one, and still happens. I believe from what I have read, it's a software glitch that quite a few people have had problems with.

HT5642 Upgraded this morning. All worked fine for about 30min then "no service". Still the same problem and a reset of the device only fixes the problem for 15min. then we are back to no service?? When will apple fix this???

When will Apple fix ITunes to work with Windows 7 (64)?

After many attempts, iTunes (10.5.1) can not synchronized with iPod . If I import musics or create a personal folder, all info will disappear after I close and re-open later iTunes. However works perfectly under Windows XP. It looks like an incompatibility problem between these two... When will Apple stop denying this and fix the problem? Two other friends have Windows 7 and they experience the same problem! All programs (iTunes, QuickTime and Bonjour were uninstalled and all folders removed from the computer. Even regestries were cleaned up!....Re-installed twice but iTunes still not function normally as far as synch features.

I don't know about iPod, but I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium x64 and other than a current problem accessing the iTunes store, it seems to work OK. I can sync my iPhone fine. Do you have a conflict with another software package you are running, like an anti-virus or firewall? It might not be, but in troubleshooting sync problems with my PC and iPhone previously, I found that I had a conflict with a firewall. The firewall has since been updated and is behaving nicely with iTunes now, but they can sometimes be a problem. Anyways, I hope this helps, but thought I'd mention that my Win7 x64 and iTunes 10.5.1 seems to sync OK in case it helps you to look for other causes to the problem.

In mountain lion, my avchd folders are QuickTime files. Why and when will Apple fix this?

I recently noticed that in mountain lion, when I insert the such card from my camera, the avchd folders that used to exist in previous operating systems are now QuickTime files. If I wish to see what I could see in previous operating systems by simply selecting the folder, I now have to bring up the context menu and choose to show package contents. This should not be this way and it really gets old fast when you need to go down several levels.
Is Apple aware of this? Did Apple do this ridiculous thing on purpose? Will Apple fix this?

Such = SDHC
Sorry, Apple thought it knew better than I what I wanted to type.

When will Apple fix Lion OS X v10.7 from freezing after my 27" Mac is put to sleep? I must admit that I am amazed that Apple would release an OS that has this problem, for that matter any serious problem.

When will Apple come up with a fix for Lion OSX v10.7 from freezing after Lion is put to sleep? My 27"Mac freezes after being put to sleep and a hrad boot is required to be able to use the system. I have complained to the local Apples store numerous times. The Genious Bar re-installed the OS and it crashed the very next day and continues to crash two or three times per week. I am amazed that Apples would relase a product, any product before it has been proven to be solid, then again, look at the release of the newest IPhone 4-S.

So do you have a question about how to fix your system?
The question/problem is "My 27"Mac freezes after being put to sleep."
Gabor, I can't help, except to report that I, too, experience very frequent unexplained crashes and freezes in Lion. However (so far) not when I put it to sleep.
There are a lot of reports about freezes. Here's one. Maybe you should join that thread. Someone there is also reporting that "Lion has a bug that freezes the system when waking the system from sleep."
Are you getting freezes/crashes at other times or only when sleeping the computer?
And does it successfully go to sleep?
Does it freeze when you wake it, or at the point where you're putting it to sleep?

When will Apple fix the iTunes update msvcr80.dll issue?

Just for the records, my Windows iTunes has become unusable, too. The buggy update 11.4.1 ist still offered to my other windows installations. At least, it should be immediately pulled back.
When will Apple deliever an automated bugfix to this update-mess? I do not intend to de-install and reinstall all my Apple-programs on my Windows machine (in fact, I don't use iTunes on Windows anymore, my Macs run flawless and there I have the actual database). Apple: you broke it. You fix it.
So far, no official Apple statement to this problem? (Monday, 27.1. 2014 10:15 MET)
It is getting time...
Greetings

Search the forums for similar issues and I feel quite certain you will find a resolution.

These are user to user support forums. There is no logical reason to expect a response from Apple here. Frankly Apple rarely releases statements, only software updates.

When will apple fix the icloud photostreaming?

1) I want to be able to delete individual files. Why wouldn't they allow pictures from the cloud to be deleted?
2) I want to be able to reset my photostreaming, currently iCloud services are busted, since Apple failed to plan to have enough servers for their new iPhone release. When is Apple going to fix the iCloud issue?
Here's the problem that I am currently having.

my photostram only works on the iOSdevice but stopped refrehsing in Aperture. ( worked before ).
Now I have 40 new pictures in photostream that I want in Aperture, but they never show up.
Another failing feature of iCloud.
Yesterday iwork on iOS deleted my pages and numbers files instead of syncing them.
I tink about stop using icloud.

5.0 won't work - extensions message is "localized string not found". When I force it to try to load a new window it shows a gray screen with the bookmarks on top then immediately closes and wants to report the error. Has been this way since 5.0 came out.

I first tried downloading Safari when the 5.0 update came out last year. When I choose the app in the dock, I get the blue top bar (Safari, File, etc) but nothing else loads. I uninstalled the app and tried again several times, but no success. For over a year now I've used Firefox as a result. Today I thought I'd try again, but same results. When I choose "new window" in the file menu, I get a small gray window with my bookmarks on top, then in a few seconds, the app quits unexpectedly and the report an error screen appears. I've unchecked all the languages in the information area for the app, cleared all history, cookies, and cache. Still the extensions tab in the preferences area has "LOCALIZED STRING NOT FOUND" in 4 places. It won't show what that means when I click the "?". Will I ever be able to use Safari again?

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
* [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
-> Profile in use
* [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_in_use]
Check and tell if its working.

When will Apple fix the Sonos compatibility issue?

How soon should we expect Apple to work with Sonos to fix the compatibililty issue with Lion? I am a Sonos fan for the same reason I am a Apple fan, their stuff works and is simple. I would like to upgrade to Lion but read that the Lion release does "not support sharing drives formatted as FAT32" which apparently Sonos uses. Does this sound like a simple fix or a long term problem?

Appreciate the direction to check with Sonos. I looked again at their website and Sonos asserts they believed they had a working software update that would work with Lion during their testing, and while they had a few bugs they were working through prior to the Lion launch, the one issue they have yet to find a work around for is Lion's inability to share music files. Is there an underlying technology reason that would cause Apple to block access to music files?
I am fearful that I will be caught in the middle and have to choose between upgrading to Lion or abandoning my Sonos equipment. I hope this doesn't become an issue like the Adobe Flash vs Apple issue. I imagine most Sonos equipment owners did not purchase with plans of buying replacement gear every 4 to 6 years, unlike the mindset when purchasing computers where we expect to have to replace in 6 years or less.
Hoping for responses that may help Sonos equipment owners to gain insight into the underlying cause of the problem, and whether we should expect a SIMPLE solution soon.
Thanks in advance to the many Apple experts for responses.

When will apple fix ios8.02 problems?

My iPhone 5s Bluetooth does not work with my bmw. Auto dealer told me several clients with iPhones have same problem. Firmware for connecting to verizon cell towers flawed causing callers to hear 4-5 rings before my phone rings one time. This is what verizon told me. My iPad Air screen rotation no longer works properly. Programs don't rotate all the time. Screen sensitivity touch seems off. Several web sites don't respond when I touch links to connect. Apple prides itself as being customer oriented and different then other firms. They need to communicate when an update will be released to fix all the iOS 8.02 problems. They owe this to their loyal customers or risk a backlash

this is a user helping user forum I have no idea what apples plans are
as you would likely imagine these forums has a lot of questions where users explain to eachother
how to perform their tasks and the likes
this makes this one of the worst places in the world to write if you expect apple to read your question with all the noise created by the support users between
if you wish to complain or contact apple you can use the feedback channel or some of the other ways in contact apple in the bottom of the browser page
feedback is this way

When will Apple Fix this 3.1 problem???

I've got all the same issues with the 3.1 as most do, "failed" calls, battery life, etc. Phone was just fine before 3.1 update... This is just terrible, as I make a living with the phone...I've called apple and went through all the fixes that didn't work... What now?

While talking on the phone, the conversation dies for a period of a couple seconds every 45 seconds or so despite having full bars... The frequency of that type of blackout increases until finally the call "fails" after about 15 minutes. After the first fail, it will fail more frequently following that until I restart the phone... Always with full bars and in areas I've never had that happen. Happens on 8 of 10 phone calls or so. Prior to 3.1 update, I believe I've only had 1 failed call since feb 09 when I got the phone... may be two... I've had dozens and dozens since update last thursday.
Battery life must be 50% of what it used to be a week ago. Talk time in particular has gone down the drain:(
Voicemail box no longer works right. I delete on the iphone, but it won't delete in the "real" mail box, so my mail box is filling up despite visual VM being empty.
Those are the big issues...
I called apple twice. Per apple recommendation, I did a "restore" function on the phone through itunes (from an Imac). Have also synced several times since. Problems not resolved. Reboot phone multiple times. Another "restore" through itunes per apple tech. Call ATT, they had me reset network settings and changed a couple things. They looked for a tethering patch under profile that they said caused a lot of problems with 3.1. I didn't have that patch so there was nothing to remove... After ATT changes, problems still present...
I'm open to ideas and I'm certainly no pro with the iphone... Wish I could get 3.0 back that's for sure...
Thanks!

When will Apple Lossless Music be Available from the iTunes Store?

I have recently rediscovered the wonders of uncompressed music. I bought my first CD player in 1984. The best vinyl records were better then than the best CDs, and still are, but the average CD was a lot better than the average vinyl. The CD average has probably gotten better since then. At some point, I imported the CDs I listened to into my Mac, initially as 128K AAC, and later as 256K AAC, and thought I was still getting good quality. A couple of months ago, I bought an external USB DAC (NuForce Icon µDAC) and some better-than-the-usual-computer-speakers powered monitors (M-Audio AV40). And I reimported my CDs in Apple Lossless format. Oh! Sweet new music!
The difference between 256K AAC and Apple Lossless is subtle, but through good equipment it's still very noticeable. I have lots of music I bought from the iTunes Store over the years, in 128K and 256K AAC. Some of those I've replaced with CD rips, but I don't have all those CDs. I sure would like to be able to upgrade to Apple Lossless through the iTunes Store. I'd be happy to pay the HDTracks.com prices of $12/album or $1.49/track for the privilege, but it isn't available. The best Apple will sell me is 256K AAC. So now I'm getting all my new music from HDTracks.com, who have wonderful recordings, but a small selection, or as CDs from Amazon.
Apple, when are you going to step up to the plate for the audiophiles in your market and sell us Apple Lossless (or FLAC) music? I realize that we aren't nearly as big a market as the teeny-bopper iPod users out there, but we ARE a market, and I for one would happily return to the iTunes Store if I could buy full-resolution music there.

Wonderful question, would be nice if Apple was not so hush-hush about new developments, but alas, that is what they must do to stay on top of the game. I cannot wait for the day when I will open iTunes and see the phrase, "All Downloads now in Full CD Quality Apple Lossless!" Woohoo, what a momentus occasion that will be. Fortunately, we can hope that they will allow upgrades to Apple Lossless just like they did for iTunes Plus (and why wouldn't they, it's a money maker).
I too have only been purchasing cds mostly from amazon to rip in Lossless, and just came across an album of interest to me that is unfortunately only available through iTunes and Amazon. The hard copies of Steve Jablonsky's Transformers Score are only found in highly marked-up quantities on amazon and ebay, so i am left to bite the bullet and purchase the adequate 256kbps AAC version from the iTunes store. At least I don't have to buy Amazon's MP3 coded versions(typed with a smirk).
With the capacity of most iPods ranging between 8 and 160 GBs, I think it is safe to assume that storage space is not really an issue anymore. Let us cross our fingers for Apple Lossless soon(or use those fingers to raise typed awareness).
