My top 5 items i'd like to see in the next FCX update...

hopefully someone from Apple development reads this!
Allow custom frame sizes for projects. a MUST! not everyone is creating movies in a standard video format - videos are needed for e-commerce, display panels, and web banners that wont fall into a standard video formats. (this is easy to do with FC7 and all other pro editing software out there)
Paste attributes, like in FC7 - be able to select which attributes to paste (motion, filters, etc, or all)
Batch processing of projects and compound clips - must be a way to select multiple projects or clips and batch export or at least send them all to compressor as a batch. There is no way for our company to use the software if we are forced to select each clip separately -
Export using multiprocessors - this feature was removed with FCX 10.0.4 update - please bring it back!!! (why would we want to lose good features like this?)
I'd like to see simple color tags brought to FC PRO X. it is a very easy way to visually see which projects/sequences/events are complete, or need to be exported, or need to be re-shot, etc. It's a standard for apple applications, not sure why it is missing here. Favorites don't replace a simple color tag - (unless you can see some kind of indication that the item is a favorite, without clicking on it and opening it up - that defeats the purpose, for me at least.)
and one last request (for good luck...) keyframing is very cumbersome in the new FCX. There needs to be a much easier way to add keyframes than clicking on that tiny diamond box, or clicking on the transform - for EACH spot you want to keyframe... also you can no longer hold the shift key to keep the motion on a single axis. there needs to be a simple way to move the video left or right (or up and down) without effecting the other axis.
I'm sure there are much bigger requests out there, but since my day to day use of Final cut is pretty basic - (we rarely use audio or advanced features) it seems logical (to me) to get these basic functions back. Unfortunately, we cant purchase upgrades and start using this software until at least the first three requests are met. Until then we will continue to edit on FC7 - and when we are forced to upgrade our software, we hope the needed functions are available or we'll be forced to switch to Premiere, that already functions similarly to FC7.

Apple engineering reads feedback not the forums.
All good feature requests.
You don't need to add keyframes by clicking on the keyframe button at every point. You set the first keyframe value. Go to a different point in time and change the value and a keyframe will automatically be added.

What I'd like to see in the next update...

Long time PC user. Bought a Mac last Xmas to make use of some great easy-to-use programs that aren't available through PC so me and my wife can use (ie GarageBand)
We were looking to make our website and found out ilife '06 had iweb. Read about all the great things and WYSIWYG format. Rushed out and purchased one. Started playing around only to realize its real limitations in modifications to templates and such.
What I've been trying to do is simply expand my page a little so that I don't get a solid fill color on either side once I publish my page. I'm able to stretch the background, but the header remains. I've read the posts where others have edited the actual templates file, but I'm hesitant. Sounds like it'll take some time and I'm not entirely comfortable in doing that.
My biggest question is why iWeb doesn't allow customization of the templates. I'm not talking about a full overhaul, just some modifications on size and shape, etc. So my main point is that I would like some more flexibility to customize the existing (and any upcoming) templates. Perhaps the next update (or some update down the road) will incorporate that? From what I've read, it would be useful for many other users as well.
Mac Mini 1.5 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Welcome to the discussions, Kungpow.
My answer to why it doesn't allow customization to templates is probably related to why Vista still isn't shipping. It was probably a hard decision to make to lock down the templates so much, but given a schedule that had to be met in order to ship in time for MacWorld, it had to be cut. It's not that it CAN'T be done (as other users have shown) but probably more that the easy to use and understand GUI for it wasn't going to be completed in time.
Maybe the GUI belongs in the inspector, maybe it belongs floating over the document window like the Adjust and Star editing tools, maybe it should be under Text, but what if you want to use a Graphic instead? Then putting it under Text wouldn't make sense. Oh, what if a user wants to use a shape for a menu button? Instead of being locked to the top, or side how about allowing a rollover button to be anywhere on a page? Would these elsewhere-on-the-page buttons be created the same as the menu ones so that the menu now becomes a specialized version of an "elsewhere" button?
And those are just questions I can think of off the top of my head that could affect how to implement the feature!

Things I would like to see in the next n95 8gb upd...

1) Saved camera settings (Really..how hard is that?)
2) Fixed video camera stutter (Didn't see it on the list of updates)
3) When texting groups whose members have more than 1 number, it would be nice if I could set a default instead of having to choose every time I do a group text.
4) ASR that can rotate to the right too
5) Nokia maps always tells me to turn in the wrong direction on the last turn
6) You know how by default, you can make it so your contacts displays "First Name" then "Last Name"? Is there a way to make it display it like that for the rest of the phone (texting, etc)? If not, then I want it fixed =)
7) A way to make it vibrate twice on "Silent" setting
My first Nokia phone and I love it, but why does it feel like I paid $640 to be a beta tester? There are so many features that should have been included with the release of the phone

4) ASR that can rotate to the right too
Now the new firmware 20.0.016 allows it.Well,New phones you do have to let the admins, or technician to figure out and then let them configure it.It's good that your voicing out for other people too.
Also i would wanna to have a function where the phone can switch off the camera's shutter sound

Features I would like to see in the next version o...

Following are some of the drawbacks in the OVi suite when compared to PC suites from other manufacturers.As a Nokia Ovi user I would love to have these features added to Nokia OVi suite as I believe they are very useful,
1.OVi suite doesnt show the mobile network coverage.This could be a useful feature as user can see whether the mobile is having enough range when using OVi to send SMS's.
2.OVi suite doesnt show the available battery level.
3.Ovi suite should also list the call details as well. Now only messages,contatcs,Photos/Videos,music store,maps and software updates are shown.Having the call logs (received/missed/dialled) will be a very useful feature.
4.Ovi suite does not have any option to view the Notes and Calendar entries on the phone.This is also one useful feature i have found in other mobiles and their PC suites.
Hope Nokia will consider adding the above mentioned features in Ovi suite in future.

Hello @sjose2x,
Have you seen this announcement from Nokia Beta Labs?
http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/nokia-suite-beta
There could be some features you listed above and what is very
exciting you will have an opportunity to give your feedback directly to
the team behind the Nokia Suite.

Hello, I have a Macbook Pro 2011, and put an SSD on it. Yesterday i upgrade to Yosemite and sadly mi trim is not supported .... I really need (and demand) a solution to this, because like i see in the manual of the mac, Iam allowed to install a disk.

Why won't itunes sync with iphone the contacts and calendars? Items entered on Outlook are copied to iPhone, but item entered on iPhone are lost in the next sync. That is not a true sync.

I want items entered on my iPhone to sync with my Outlook. This is currently not happening. Items entered in Outlook get "copied" to the iphone, but items entered on my iphone while away from my PC do not get sync'd to my Outlook. Am I doing something wrong or is this just the way it is?

I had the same issue until I updated my apps through iTunes. I had over 100 updates, but none of them showed on my iPod. After they updated everything started syncing like it is supposed. Go to the apps library and check for updates. After everything syncs leave your iPhone/ipod/ipad connected if the spinning arrows at the top is still spinning. It means that things are still being added. If you go to settings > general > about, you will see it loading songs, videos, photos, etc. If you back out of "about" and then go back to it you will see the numbers for each one change.

How do you browse the catalog by release date? I would like to see all the new releases in specific catagories but it seems that feature went away. Or can you browse the whole catalog by release date?

It appears that you can not browse the catalog by release date or see all the new additions to the catalog.

Hi zrxix,
Happy New Year! In the iBooks application on your Mac, if you pick a category, like "Best of 2014" or "Best New Fiction" then click on the "See All" link on the right side of the page, you can choose to sort by name, release date, or featured.

I cannot find the thread in the forum anymore.

Excellent question! If our comments are in the wrong location, please provide a link to Apple's preferred location.
If Apple does not care about our needs, please say so. Although Aperture is currently IMO our best choice in the DSLR image management space, it certainly is not our only choice.
In any event, please provide an answer to the OP question "I cannot find the thread in the forum anymore, has it been deleted?"
-Allen Wicks
P.S. We posters expend a lot of expensive professional time providing what is in our opinion valuable feedback to Apple's commercial enterprise. If Apple considers our feedback irrelevant please so advise so we will not waste our expensive time.
Thank you Apple.

What Improvements Would You Like To See in the Store? Tabs, search options?

I just sent some feedback on the store but, you know, you never feel satisfied doing that so I thought I'd post my ideas and see if anybody else felt the same way or have found solutions for navigating through the store.
My Feedback;
+As a recent iPod Touch owner I enjoy downloading inexpensive apps but the process of browsing is slow and search is too limited.+
+First the store needs Tabs So I can check out many apps quickly.+
+Second *Sort By* needs to have more options like Sale and Price+
Why can't you search within the App store?
I searched "Flying" and then I have to sort through the whole store(songs , movies etc.) then I can select apps but you can't search through them or use a function like Control F to find a word.

TA48312 I have mac osx 10.4.11 and I would like to upgrade to the next operating system however I can't find the upgrade can u help

I have a mac osx 10.4.11 and I would like to upgrade to 10.5 how do I do this please help

If you have an Intel Mac, purchase Mac OS X 10.6 from the online Apple Store. If you have a G4 or G5 Mac, purchase Mac OS X 10.5 from a site such as Amazon. If you have a G3 Mac, you don't.
Mac OS X 10.5 and 10.6 need to be purchased on a retail DVD. No downloads are available to the general public.

My speed grade does not show a menu on my mac, like I see in the tutorials

I had bought the speed grade as a part of creative suite production premium, but it does not have a menu like shown on the tutorials, and it also does not have the noise reduction option. Do I need to activate speed grade separately through some channel or am I doing something wrong, I need to use it for a documentary I am making and I am an amateur to this world of post production. I would be thankful to people who may be able to help in this regard.

Could you post the link to the tutorial you refer to, so we can help you more exact?

I would like to upgrade to the next step, but because I have many problems with the version 10.4.11, I'm worried that upgrading would create more problems.

Due to a misunderstanding with [email protected] in September of 2010, many of my applications and important files were put into the trash during a cleaning. The trash hadn't been deleted, so a CleanApp rep told me to drag my important files to a folder on my desktop. They were unable to help me with anymore advice with the exception that if I followed the pathway of the application, I could manually restore it to its proper location.
This was asking a lot of me because I didn't have the experience or knowledge of undertaking such a massive restoration. However, I did the best I could. What had been put in the trash was not just a few files -- there were hundreds of files or apps that I discovered in the trash. As I said, this was a misunderstanding. I was left feeling devastated at what had happened.
Since then, my iMac Intel Core Duo has been running on its last legs. I'm surprised I can even get to my email. As far as using the software that I bought with my iMac, I can't. I just do the basics.
What I have been wanting to do is to upgrade to the next level. However, I worry that if I upgrade a crippled OS X 10.4.11 Tiger, I would be creating more problems than what I already have. Do you agree that an upgrade would make matters worse?

It won't necessarily make it worse, but may not make it better. I am not familiar with the utility you usedm though anything that cleans or maintains your Mac should be avoided unless you know what you are doing and what it does. Probably re-installing software from the official sources (download or CDs) is the best way to ensure missing parts are all replaced.
If this is a core duo and not a core 2 duo then the highest you can go is Snow Leopard 10.6 Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).

HT3702 I am not able to access my iTunes account purchase history. I would like to see if the authorization hold is still in place or whether the monies have been transferred to my bank account

I need help accessing my iPhone 4S account history. I've been told it goes through the ITunes Store.

You can see the purchase history on your account on your computer's iTunes : if you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases.
For authorisation holds, as per the page that you posted from, they won't show on your iTunes purchase history they will only show on your credit card statement - so you will need to look at your card statement to see if your card issuer has removed them yet.

What I would like to see in the forum

Just a few simple things that just about any forum supports these days.
1. Code text tags.
I hate to post PL/SQL code and have it html'ized removing spaces, etc. It really makes it hard to get points across when everything get mashed together.
2. Image link tags.
I mostly post in the Oracle Spatial forum. Not being able to have in-line images links causes us to use 10,000 words instead of a picture! (Well not quite, but you get the idea). URL text just doesn't cut it.
3. Change email.
As a developer, I can't for the life of me understand why this STILL has not been changed. There is no reason for that. And no, starting a new account is not the answer.
Bryan

Well, you can post code using [code] or [pre] tags.
