Is there any news from Apple regarding iMessage on MacBook Air?

I WANT IT so badly on my MacBook Air!

It wasn't worth the wait. Yes, I know its beta and I know its free, but its a singularly unimpressive piece of software. It sends messages based on your Apple ID, not your phone number. As a consequence, your contacts wont know where to message you and you'll miss messgaes on the phone that go to the computer, and vice versa. You also cant clear the chat transcripts without major surgery (burrowing into the folders in the library).
I hope it gets better, because right now its not much to look at.

    Is there any word from Apple as to when this will be addressed?

    So this isn't just me? I'm getting on a flight in 12 hours and I've been trying to copy a book on tape over... I've got my cable but nothing will sync. It just keeps insisting I put everything on the cloud... However I can't bloody download audiobooks from the iCloud when I'm on an AIR PLANE. Would be nice to fix this up...

  • Are there any plans from Apple to port Sculpture and other Logic Pro instruments as iPad standalone synths to iOS?

    Now that the iPad is getting faster CPUs, you should consider doing it.
    With Inter-App audio, and Audiobus going to a 2.0 soon, I really can't imagine why you are taking so long to do this.
    Maybe someone from Apple can give me some good news here?

    This is a user only forum, no one from Apple will read or reply to your post.
    Also, I've never known Apple to let the public know what they're working on, ever! 
    You could join the Devs forum and make the request over there, uses the same Apple I.D.

  • Any news from Apple?

    Hi all.
    Everyone here agrees that iTunes 7 has been a flop. For whatever reason, Apple has decided to ignore it's beta testing and release a faulty copy of it's software to the general public. Yes I agree we're all pretty annoyed.
    I also agree that iTunes software is free. Yet we "have" to use it to use their iPods, which we most certainly do pay for.
    So what to do? Well, all we CAN do is get really really annoyed. I hope Apple by this stage have sacked a few people or at least severely reprimanded them for this software blunder. How hard would it be to release a beta version to a few hundred people? Apart from that, we can buy different hardware the next time we go looking for an MP3 or MP4 player, and certainly NOT buy an Apple computer.
    My question is why oh why won't Apple admit these problems? Their silence is quite deafening. As I said above, we can't do anything but become annoyed and maybe throw our iPods across the room, but it would soothe the savage beast if Apple would at least come out in public and face the critisisms that we have all made in this forum. If we were to be tempted to buy an Apple computer instead of a Windows based PC, and this is the pathetic level of customer service that was on offer from Apple, then I'm happy with my WinXP thank you very much.
    Anyone from Apple want to respond?

    Great post John Cunningham3.
    As far as I know I haven't lost any music and that's scary. Does anyone think Apple will reimburse these people???
    I myself can listen with no problems and my podcasts are being updated as well, but I can't access anywhere in the store other than the front. Once I click the video section it shuts down.
    What's interesting in all of this is with all of the media being bought out my companies affiliated by other companies will the "news" organizations listen to us???
    I mean Apple is still linked with Disney through Pixar and Disney is the "parent company" of ABC what incentive does ABC have in making this story public.
    Considering the splash they made at unveiling the iPods last week and how much positive press they received why didn't the news organizations respond to the iTunes Store fiasco???
    I hope the fix comes out soon, but as John Cunningham3
    already mentioned their silence is deafening.

  • HT3964 Is there any other way to turn on a macbook air without using power button?

    Hi everyone
    I think I somehow spilled some water on the keyboard or something and now the power button does not respond. I see that the bettery is fully charged as the LED light indicates green. Now, is there any other way to turn on the computer without using powerbutton?

    Nor would you want to try to turn it on under these circumstances. If the logic board is salvagable, and the damage is now only limited to the keyboard, then putting power to the logicboard could cause a catastophic short circuit and render the whole MBA a lost cause..
    Immediately take it in to an Authorized Service Center or Apple Store Genius Bar to ascertain the damage and potential for repairability.

  • Hi there, my photos from Iphone wont upload onto Macbook Air Iphoto. It says it's loading but never does, Anyone have a solution?

    hi there, I am trying to upload my photos from my Iphone 5s to my Iphoto on my macbook air, but they wont load. \
    It says "loading" but it's not.... does anyone have a solution? Thanks in advance.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Is there any incentive from Apple for people that bought the Ipad Air just before the Ipad Air 2 just came out?

    It looks prety frustrating knowing that a better and cheaper ipad came out just a few days after buying the "old" one

    Yes... and not: Technology is always moving forward, of course. But is rare that new and more performant products are cheaper than previous ones. When that happens, some companies decide to give updates (with softwares) or some gifts to the last buyers of the previous version (I remember that happened once with the iphone, when Apple decided to give some money back to people that bought the previeus version in the previous 2 months). In my case it came out 3 weeks after I bought it, then no possible return for me. However thanks for the answer! of course is not a big deal...

  • Any resolution from Apple regarding vertical lines on 17" iMac?

    A few months ago my iMac 17" developed a vertical line on the right hand side of the screen. This has now gone up to 5. I have read articles on the web that suggest Apple are aware that this is a hardware issue. Has anyone had this resolved?

    I have a iMac with the same problem.
    Until last year, Apple was offering to repair free of charge to many people who had this problem with there iMacs.
    But that repair program is over.
    I read that some users found out that the computers would work fine with an external screen.
    I have ordered an mini DVI to HDMI adapter to see if it works with my HDTV as a external screen.
    I should be getting it today or tomorrow.
    If you have a screen available at home, it is wort trying since like you said, the computers are otherwise in perfect working order.
    You can get an adaptor for cheap on eBay or the Apple store (more expensive!) you can also find them in computer stores.
    I will post back when I have done the test with my computer.

  • PR 1.2 any news from Nokia?

    Just found my phone laying in the shelf for a while. Recalled how excellent was the idea behind the phone, but how awful was user experience (that I finally switched to iPhone).
    Recalled that Nokia promised a "legion" of updates.  Are there any news from Nokia on this?

    Hey lucky N950 owner!     How about you post a nice big juicy list of all the cool new things you've noticed, so that us humble (haha) N9 owners can see what we're looking forward to!
    Thanks!

    Try this first - 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 - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.
