ICloud is more limiting than what I was able to do on iDisk

iCloud is more limiting than what I was able to do on iDisk (part of MobileMe)? Why would Apple take these services away? Apple PLEASE bring them back. Specifically
Support for non-iWork Files
Web browser access and control of all files not just iWork Files
Ability to share with others
iDisk has saved me many a time, allowing me to share PDF's, Omnigraffle Drawings, Measurements (from electronic systems), and even Microsoft formatted docs with Club Members (who I'm still trying to convert). The key point is that with all of the other competting services out there, I'm worried that Apple is now taking a step back and leaving long-time customers like me to go and find something different. If I only lived in iWork I would not have an issue.
I paid extra money to have more iDisk space, which I know I have until June of 2012. I'm hoping and praying that Apple adds the features that I use in iDisk to iCloud before June of 2012.
Thanks

Please Please bring iDisk back as I used it all the time in my small business and was flawless in backing up and using for PDF's and Word docs etc so I could access this all on my iPhone's and iPads etc!! I am very SAD at this news.

Why are my apps taking up more space than what the appstore says they will? Like were talking a full GB more than what it should.

Why are my apps taking up more space than what the appstore says they will? Like were talking a half a GB more than what it should.
For example the app Modern Combat 4 says it should only be 1.58 GB on the appstore but when i go into settings>general>usage it says it takes up 2.0 GB.
Ive tried deleting the apps and then reinstalling them but they still take up so much more space.
This happens for multiple apps of mine. Some I have never even opened before.
I have an ipod touch (4th Gen)(32GB).
I link to a mac computer.
I have IOS version 6.1.3
I noticed this a long time ago but didnt need the space, Now i need the space!!
Please help!!

Because you see the file size of the compuressed file. The file gets expanded when installed and that takes up more space. Also, data is kept in the app.

Apple, please fix this bug. Sending scanned images to "Pictures" is not what I want nor what I was able to do in every previous operation system. I want to save all scanned items in a specific folder - NOT "PICTURES" Please fix this bug NOW!

I only use Image Capture, so I can't speak for other software.
Here is how I select a Scan To destination:
If you are using the minimal details screen, you should have the same submenu to the left of the page size.

Ipad downloads more messages than what's in the "Show" tab

So, I have an iPhone 4 (iOS 4.1) and an iPad 2 (iOS 4.3.3). The iPhone works fine with the configuration of marking to show only the 50 recent messages, but the iPad does not. Even though it is marked to show only 50 messages, it keeps downloading everything, like 130 e-mails just today.
The funny thing is that my dad also has an iPad, but the iPad 1 (I guess with iOS 4.2), and it does the same thing as mine. It is marked to show only 50 messages, but it downloaded like 480 e-mails at once!!
It's not like we scrolled down to show more messages, the numbers I said were when we first opened the app and it checked the e-mails accounts.
What can we do??

I thought of that too, but it was ripped from a (non-copy protected) DVD, and the title sequence is its own chapter. So of course, the little chunk I need to use is pretty much at the tail end... I don't have 10 seconds after it.
Thanks for the suggestion, though!

Syncing more files than what is in iTunes library?

Hi All,
I did some cleanup work on my MP3 collection last night through updating metadata tags, etc. I then did a reimport of my collection into iTunes. I have roughly 3300 MP3 files. When my ATV started to sync last night, I noticed it trying to sync around 7000 files? When the ATV syncs music, does it sync any other "background" files I should be aware of? I am concerned now that it will fill up my drive but I can't figure out why it isn't just syncing the 3300 files? I didn't make any changes to movies, photos, etc. If music was also setup in playlists, it doesn't try to duplicate those files, right? I cleared them just to be safe and still see a large number. Any help would be appreciated.

If you had already set itunes to sync your photos in a previous session, it will continue to sync them every time until you deselect that option.
I can't help but keep thinking back to the fact that you reorganized/reimported your tunes collection and that twice your content is not far from 7000 items, have a look at how much space your tunes collection takes up in itunes and compare it to how much space is occupied by audio files on your tv (you can see this at the bottom of your sync options), you can also see how much space is occupied by photos and movies etc there.
If there is a large discrepancy in the space occupied by tunes (say twice as much as it should be), could you post back with a step by step of what you did to reorganize your tunes.

International call rate charged different than what I was told by customer service

I made an emergency call to India on 3/29/09 for 13 min. I realized later that I didn't have any international plan. So I called verizon customer service on 04/03/2009 to confirm what rate I will be charged for that specific call to India. I was told I will be charged $2.60/min for India, but he can't check how long I had talk at that time, because the computer software doesn't have the feature to check it right then, It will be available till the final monthly statement get published. Yesterday I received my online bill and saw the rate I was charged was $6.77/min. So I called today to the customer sevice and eventually talk to the manager and I was told the rate I was chraged, correct and it is available online. So I have no other option but to pay this amount as I have no proof that I was told the rate of $2.60/min, as I don't have the person's name whom I talk to on 04/03/09 and nothing in writing.
I have no problem paying this amount, but I feel I was cheated. As the person I talk earlier could have told me the correct rate on 04/03/09. It's a lesson for me, next time I will try to keep something as proof.

You should have checked here to make sure :

He may have thought you had some sort of international plan, sorry.

CODE RED: Online album showing more pics than what I upload??????

Overview: I just (very) recently upgraded to PSE7, from 5. I used Vista's transfer file mechanism to get info from one PC to another. Upon doing this, I lost all version sets and everything came in as single photos.
Now that I've been 'working it' for a couple days, I now have new version sets of newly edited work. When I try to move an image into a new catalogue, the entire set and/or stack moves with it whereas in 5, I only got the one image I selected... weird.
Today I created an online album for private viewing and it seems the above is taking place with it too. I went back and separated everything by undoing versions sets and unstacking stacks,,, but I still get a couple of unwanted images in this OL album - WTH is that all about???
I really need to get this online album thing figured out ASAP.
Thanks for the incoming help.

To move your PSE catalog from one catalog to another, you can't simply move the files. See this tech note for how to move your catalog (and upgrade from PSE 5 to 7):
http://go.adobe.com/kb/ts_kb402894_en-us
The note is written for PSE 6 but applies equally to PSE 7. There are special notes about upgrading to a new version and from XP to Vista.
If you care about recovering your tags, dates/times, version sets, and stacks, it might be worth your while to do this conversion (but you'll lose any recent version sets and stacks you've made).
When I try to move an image into a new catalogue, the entire set and/or stack moves with it whereas in 5, I only got the one image I selected
Can you explain what you mean by "move an image into a new catalog"? What are the precise commands you're giving to do that?

I am using the iPhone 6 updated to current version, and I cannot send photos to my Family via iCloud. When I first started the account 30 min. Ago I was able to send photos. Then for some reason I was not able to send or comment photos, what's wrong?

I opened a family iCloud sharing account recently, at first I was able to share photos but now all I can do is receive photos and comments. I currently have the iPhone 6 updated to the current version. Is there something wrong with my phon? I restarted it as well as checked all of my connections the wifi is fine, but all I can do is recieive photos and comments. What could possibly be wrong?

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

Have more miles ran in Itunes, than what are synced to my nike running account?

Hello everyone, I use an ipod nano generation 5 to run with. Ever since I installed itunes 10 to my pc I have experienced difficulties in transferring my runs from itunes to the Nike+ website. Under itunes it says that I have ran more miles than what my Nike+ account says I have. There are days that my info will not transfer from itunes to the website. For instance I ran 5 miles on Monday, March 4. I then ran another 4 on March 5th; and 4 on March 6th. However, nike+ is not recognizing my run on the 5th at all.
This is very frustrating to me and I would appreciate any help on this matter
Thank You Very Much

Hi ozzie329,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I would suggest you transfer your iTunes purchases from the iPhone to the computer first.
Then in your iTunes library on the computer, find and remove the duplicates.
Then resync to your Nike.
Here are a few articles to help you do this ...
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library
iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Was told that hard drive crashed/failed. Apple support was able to retrieve downloads and docs but none of my pics or video. Help!!

My 2011 MacBook will not boot past the gray screen with the apple. I took it in to Apple and was told that my hard drive failed. The specialist was able to retrieve all of my documents and downloads but none of my pictures and videos, which are the most important. I was told that I would have to send my notebook to a company in California to retrieve my pics and should plan to pay at least $1000-1200 for the service.
Is there any way to get my pics and video aside from the above? How were they able to retrieve all of my other files but no pics? Can the hard drive be fixed?? I would like to replace the hard drive but am afraid to remove it from my notebook for fear of damaging it any further and not being able to retrieve anything else from the drive. Please help!!

Salsgal,
unfortunately, you’ve just found out the most important reason why it’s a good idea to make regular backups of your MacBook Pro’s internal disk. There are other data recovery services; call around and do price comparisons if there’s no time constraint on recovering your data, but as with any other specialist service, you’ll get what you pay for. What Apple was able to retrieve was dependent upon which part of the disk crashed; in your case, it sounds as though your picture and video folders were the ones to suffer physical damage. No, the hard drive cannot be fixed. Removing the damaged hard drive from your MacBook Pro will not damage it further, unless it is dropped, gets wet, or receives a static electricity discharge.

HT4863 I getting this message on my iPad more times than not. IOS message. I have 7.5 G remaining on my iCloud and don't do mass emailing. Just to replies to emails sent to me. I'm confused with such limits.

I'm getting "exceeding my limit" messages more times than not on my iPad. I feel I'm not sending anything extraordinary. No mass sending but only replying to emails sent to me. I have 7.5 G remaining on my iCloud account. Is it because I have a lot of emails files? Please help because I'm getting frustrated with this.

Hello, PriestessJeanann.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here is an article I would recommend going through when experiencing issues with mail. The usual fix would be to delete the email account in question and add this account via the preset AOL option. I would also recommend checking with your email provider for security procedures such as two-step verification as this could cause this issue.

How to use iCloud on more than 5 devices without constant de-authorizing/authorizing devices

I have more than 5 Apple devices, laptops, and PCs. How do I use my iTunes and iCloud on all of them without constant authorizing/de-authorizing them? It is very annoying.

I have iPods, iPads, iPhones, iTVs, MacBook > than 10 iDevices, I have PCs and laptops with multiple OSes > 10. I subscribed to iTunes Match, can't fully benefit from the convenience of iCloud with these limits. Is there a way to increase these limits?

Print more than what's showing in text field?

Is there any way I can set a pdf form to print more than what is displayed in a text field? i.e., when there are more text lines than space in the text field and you need to scroll down to read it?
The only way I can think is to collate responses and export to a spreadsheet and print from there but I was wondering if there was a way to do it from the form itself (i.e., have the text automatically shrink or have it print more on the page and have the document made automatically longer.
Cheers

Thank you - Is there an equivalent simple feature for LIVECYCLE such as setting font size to AUTO or do I need to go into that dynamic fiels thingy?
Cheers:)

Where can i find more information about factory sampler instruments? such as what synth was sampled, what chord has been sampled etc.

im looking for more information about what chords have been sampled for use in the exs24 "chords" sampler instruments and more specifically wether they're major/minor and with 7ths,9ths,11ths etc. i know this could be worked out with someone with the skill to do it but unforunately that's not me. It'd be convienient if information like this was included somewhere in the documentation like it is with most other commercial sample packs.

Don't post order information or other personal information here. We're all just fellow users here - you are not communicating with Apple when you post here - and so posting such information just risks your privacy. I've asked the Hosts to remove all the private information from your post.
The serial number was included in the box ARD came in; the Apple Store will not have a record of it. If you've lost the serial number, you'll need to purchase a new copy of ARD, probably a good idea anyway since 2.2 won't run on any version of Mac OS X since, if memory serves, 10.4. It's a lot cheaper through the Mac App Store than it was back when you first purchased.
Regards.

After an erroneous contacts delete on the mac, they've been removed from icloud and all the synced devices. I was able to restore the contacts from a backup, but since the iCloud version is newer than the backuped one, they are deleted every iCloud sync

After an erroneous contacts delete on the mac, they've been removed from iCloud and all the synced devices.
I was able to restore the contacts from a backup, but since the iCloud version is newer than the backuped one, they are deleted every iCloud sync.
Now I have an iPhone with the contacts and iCloud deactivated, but I lost all the contacts on the Mac and the iPad.
There is a way to tell iCloud "restart using the contacts I have on this device"?

An iCloud backup will save the state of your Camera Roll at the time of the backup but, if you delete photos from the Camera Roll, they will not be in the next backup taken.
If you are using the iCloud Photo Library (beta) read this FAQ which will tell you what happens when you delete photos from one of the devices sharing the Photo Library.
iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
The relevant section is:
How does iCloud delete photos and videos from iCloud Photo Library?
Deleting a photo or video from your Photos app will also remove the item from iCloud Photo Library and from your iCloud storage allocation. Photos and videos you remove can be recovered from the Recently Deleted album for 30 days. After 30 days, your content will be removed from the Recently Deleted album. Photos are backed up on our servers for up to 30 days after they're deleted from the Photos app. If you need to recover these photos during that time, contact Apple Support.
