Is there any way to get in direct contact with apple about a problem I am having?

When I create text boxes in Preview and then save and close the file, they will be rotated 90 degrees when I reopen the file. This makes them virtually unreadable. It happens with some pdfs but not others. I am sure it must be a bug with preview and would really like to tell Apple about it so they can fix it. I posted this problem a few weeks ago and it seems a lot of people viewed it but I only got one reply (the person said they are not having the same problem).
Is there any way to email apple directly about it? Or a better way to go about this?
Thanks!

If you believe it's a bug and you wish to just let them know about it, use the Feedback page Network 23 provided below. You will not get an answer to any feedback you send.
If you want direct assistance from an Apple support technician, then you will have to call them and pay the support fee unless your system is within the one-year original warranty in which case you could purchase an AppleCare extended warranty plan under which you would get free phone support.
You may also get suggests from people here, at least confirmation that the problem is a bug or a refutation of it being a problem across all 10.7.4 systems. You might also update to 10.7.5, if you haven't already, and see if the problem persists. Try the Combo updater; even though it's not necessary for a .1 incremental update, often use of the Combo updater fixes problems that the incremental update does not.
Regards.

  • I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

    I have an 06' macbook and I just bought an 07' macbook.. The 06' has os x 10.6 but the 07' has 10.5.. I no longer have the disk for snow leopard. Is there ANY way to get snow leopard from the old computer to the other without having to buy it again?

    Technical issues aside, there's still a legal issue.
    Neither 2006 nor 2007 MacBooks shipped with Snow Leopard 'factory' installed. OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard became available in September 2009. So you purchased and installed a Snow Leopard upgrade disc on the 2007 system at some point.
    If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a single-user copy, then legally, you need to purchase another one for the second computer. If your Snow Leopard upgrade was a Family Pack 5-user license, then you're good to go.

    If you have an active MobileMe account, Apple was giving away a single-user upgrade copy of Snow Leopard for a limited time, and you should have received an email with a link, or been offered the opportunity when you signed in to your MobileMe account on the web:
    http://www.macrumors.com/2012/04/24/free-snow-leopard-discs-for-mobileme-users-n ow-arriving/
    Worst case, single-user Snow Leopard upgrade discs are $29 retail, direct from Apple. I'd hate to have two computers and no OS installation CD's for whatever version I'm currently using.

  • HT4757 Will this software make my Canon Powershot A700 work with os x 10.8.2 and iPhoto 11 v. 9.4.1?  Is there any way to get my camera compatible with this computer?

    Will this software make my Canon Powershot A700 work with os x 10.8.2 and iPhoto 11 v. 9.4.1?  Is there any way to get my camera compatible with this computer?

    First Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    If that doesn't help apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Is there any way of getting Facetime to work with windows?

    I've just used Facetime for the first time and it worked like a dream. Is there any way Facetime can be used to phone someone with a PC using
    Windows?

    No, FaceTime uses a proprietary communications protocol that is incapatable with Windows.

  • Stolen iPod - Is there any way to flag the serial number with Apple Service

    My iPod Product (red) that I received for Christmas was recently stolen out of my car. I've done the police report and all that, but was wondering if there was any way to flag my serial number so that if someone were to try & register it or get service that it would be blocked? Yes, I'll replace it ASAP, but my kids bought it for me with their own money and it just really makes me sick that it was stolen and I'll probably never see it again.

    Apple have no procedure to track, trace or block your iPod from use. You've done as much as you can by informing your local police.

  • Is there any way to get photos off of my Apple TV?

    The hard drive on my Macbook crashed earlier in the week and the only other place I had some of my photos is on my Apple TV. Is there anyway to retrieve these from the hardrive?

    I'm sure there is - but it will almost certainly mean invalidating your warranty. Depending on how technical you are ... you could:
    1. Take it to an Apple Store and get one of the geniuses to help you out; or
    2. Take the Apple TV apart yourself, put the drive inside either a USB or Firewire enclosure, plug the drive into your Mac and get the files off that way ...
    If you choose 2. you should probably take a look at the instructions on this page and that should help. You might also find some information on this page.
    Best of luck ...

  • Is there any way to get proof of purchase through Apple as I don't have receipt and paid cash for product, thanks

    Hi I have a hard wear problem, I bought from tesco but won't help me as I no longer have the receipt and I paid cash, is there anything I can do? Oh and took to Apple but it's over it's 1 year guarantee, but just under two years old, thanks

    If the developers of the app don't support 4.2.1 then the answer is no, unless you have an older version lying around.

  • I was burning an audio book and on the last of six CDs, the CD i entered had a problem. Itunes quit without burning the last CD. Is there any way to get it to burn just the last CD or do I have to re-burn all of them?

    I was burning an audo book to CD. It was six CDs long. After the fitth CD I inserted one that was defective and itunes just ended, as though
    the burning had been completed. Now I have five of the six CDs.
    1) Why did it do this instead of telling me I had a bad disk or something?
    2) Is there any way to get it to re-burn just the last disk instead of having to re-burn all of them?

    sure pretty simple.  make a backup of your current settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
    then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
    then import pics to computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    you may need to save pics to camera roll first
    then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
    Peace, Clyde

  • My one year old disabled my iphone 5 so i need to "connect it to itunes" as the screen directs. I know how to do this with my laptop but it says i will be doing a factory reset. is there any way to get my phone open without losing everything?

    Long story short, my one year old disabled my iphone5 and I need to "connect to itunes" as the screen instructs. I went through the steps and it says that I will be doing a factory reset and I will lose everything. Is there any way to get my phone open without losing everything?? I'm mainly concerned about my pictures and videos.

    Once the Device is in Recovery Mode... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... after the successful Recovery... Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • Is there any way to get the appStore link for my application

    Hi everyone , i am developing an app which has a feature of sharing its appstore link with the friends through mail,so that they can see my appplication in appstore and buy it directly on click of a button. For that i need to use the app store link of my application for sending it . is there any way to get that and using it dynamically in my app immediately after releasing it.

    Your best bet would be to create a web page of your own for the app. Design that page so that it uses 'META REFRESH' to redirect the visitor straight to the App Store link.
    That way you can hard-wire your own web page address into your app.
    This has the advantage that it can work well even before you've noticed that your app has arrived on the App Store. Create a real web page, describing the app and telling people to search for it in the App Store by name - then replace it with the auto-redirect page when you've discovered your application's App Store address.

  • Is there any way to get 720x576 (ie DV Pal)  from iphoto slideshow?

    I have tried the iphoto forum and have been directed here. Is there any way to get 720x576 (ie DV Pal) for an export from iphoto slideshow? I want to export 200+ photos with random transitions and the ken burns effect. Imovie offers offers automatic ken burns effect via project properties but I can't find a way to add random transitions automaticcally. Is it possible? I want to add the exported file to a movie in Final Cut Studio. Normally I have to resort to using adobe photoshop elements 5 and premiere elements 3 on my bootcamp partition. I would love to do this all in Mac OSX - since leaving Windows, this is the only thing that forces me to use that lousy operating system!
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Not directly. But you can do it with a bit of external help. Create a slideshow project in iPhoto using the "Random" transitions and auto KBE you want. Then export the slideshow as a 640x480 MPEG4/AAC 30 fps full motion MOV file. Drop the file to MPEG Steamclip and select the "Export to DV" File menu option. The select the DV format, PAL standard, and aspect you want. (I would normally select the "Frame Blending" option in the main menu when going from 30 fps to 25 fps.)

  • Is there any way to get around having to use iDVD to burn DVD?

    Is there any way to get around having to use iDVD to export FCE to DVD?
    I've been trying to burn a FCE2 sequence to DVD. A friend of mine told me all I had to do was put a blank DVD in, click on the icon on the desk top, export the sequence to Quicktime and drag the QT sequennce into the DVD icon and click burn.
    Well something happened! But there's nothing on the DVD!! What am I doing wrong? I loathe iDVD. i don't want to author. I just want to burn the project on a DVD. Please advise. Thanks.

    If you export a sequence at full resolution to can burn it onto a DVD as a data DVD, but this is for transportation purposes only. At full resolution the DVD, especially as it fills up, will not have sufficient throughput to sustain good playback of the material. That's why the material is encoded into MPEG-2 for DVD authoring. If you want to make a DVD for set-top playback it has to be authored to include the DVD format structure. There is no way around that. If you don't like iDVD, take a look at Final Cut Studio, you might prefer DVD Studio Pro. Or you might what to look at Roxio's Toast. It has basic authoring capabilities. Personally I don't think direct playback hardware solutions (except for seriously expensive ones) produce acceptable quality, but that's just me.

  • Is there any way to read XML directly from a Web Page ??

    i have a url, which on sending request, shows XML in browser.
    Now i need to read this XML in browser and then manipulate it according to my need and display it on another page.
    actually the process is. :
    1) i have to first retrieve an xml from other site. (XML will only be shown in browser)
    2.)then i have to read the Xml and show it in according to my requirements.
    Is there any way to read XML directly from a Web Page ??
    is their logic to accomplish this.
    e.g in Servlet i can do somewhat like this :
    String wholeXml=Somemethod(url);
    Please Advice

    the average Java XML parser will accept an InputStream, so just open an URLConnection to the webpage, get the inputstream from it and feed that inputstream to the XML parser. If the URL has valid XML data, it will get parsed without problems.
