New features are great, but why not let us choose to not use them?

For example, would it be so difficult to allow us to turn off the wallpaper?
Or per my other thread, how about making it so it doesn't show us every email account twice? Once is enough, no?
Seriously, do Apple development teams not think about these things before pushing them out? I know Apple is used to it's sycophants, but not everyone likes the same things or works in the same way.

Thanks for the suggestion. Just submitted this to the feedback link:
I love my iPad. The whole family uses it.
I would love to be able to pin protect any app I choose on my iPad. My nine year old daughter uses my iPad regularly and I would love to be able to prevent her from using any app I choose. HBO Go is awesome, but I don't want her to be able to use it. Same with mail and netflix and many others.
Please, please please let us pin protect apps on the iPad!
It would be awesome if they implement this.

Using Calculate tab in a field. Not letting me choose fields to use.

I am trying to make one field calculate a few other fields into a sum. But in the Calculate tab it seems I can pick all of the fields on the sheet or none at all. It's not letting me pick and choose. What am I doing wrong?

Nothing. It's a bug in Acrobat. When you select a single field use the
space-bar to select/un-select it, or click a bit off to the center of the
check-box next to its name.

It will not let me choose to NOT choose anything and just get out of site and sTOPn popping up everytime I log onto firefox

I do not want to do all these add ons from the site that pops up with firefox when I open firefox. I tried to stop the site or delete this site from popping up when i open firefox but i cant get it to stop and now am stuck in it to add ad-ons and there is no way to cancel or get out of site without downloading things I have no idea what they are and do not want them....how can i get out of this and stop it from popping up when I sign onto firefox?

Do exactly what it told you to do and contact itunes support

The update of web page iCloud is great, but why don't u just remove the "Notes" label from the "Mail" app?

The update of web page iCloud is great, but why don't u just remove the "Notes" label from the "Mail" app?
In additional, I also would like to see a "iOS liked" way to edit my "United contact" on the web page iCloud, just like on my iphone. That would be really great and more greater!
Anyway, thanks for your work!

but the updated icons on the update page don't go away.
It's difficult to tell exactly what you mean, or where you are looking.
But if you're looking in the App Store on the iPad, in the Updates area, and you still see the icons, they presumably now say "Open" to the right instead of "Update". They will stay that way as a history of what you have done. They will disappear after a while - something like 30 days. That is fine.

I have tried several ways to transfer my itunes library and Playlists to a new computer. I get the music library but not the playlists. Can you advise?
2nd > I purchased 21 new tunes yesterday on the new computer> worked great> but when I made a disc to transfer the playlist. I get the music but no album info just 1,2,3,etc. So I have signup both computers to share thinking that would work. But no to that also.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Bob

Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to new computer.

Just downloaded Firefox 4. Running Windows XP. Some of the new features are mising such as the new "Firefox Button" and the new location for the bookmarks button. The look is almost like Firefox 3. Why is this happening?

Hi. I just downloaded Firefox 4. Some of the new features are missing such as the new "Firefox Button" and the new location for the bookmarks button. It almost looks just like Firefox 3. I am using Windows XP on this desktop computer. On my laptop, running Windows Vista, Firefox 4 has all the updates advertised. Why is this happening? How do I fix?
Thanks
Jamie

Thanks so much!

I've downloaded the 5.0 update and not all the new features are there. Just the news stand, reminders and videos. I double checked on the update and it says it's up to date. What should I do now?

I've downloaded the new 5.0 update and not all the new features are there. Just the newsstand, reminders and videos icons plus icloud. Everything else is the same as before. What should I do now? It says I have the latest update. ???

Hummmm, you might not be missing anything... From what I understand, really the only new visible add-on apps type programs are Newstand and Reminders. The Notification Center seems to be about how your info and alerts are pushed to your screen and you control that thru the phone settings>General>Notifications, the panel is accessed by swiping downward from the top of your screen. Weird I know, should be more obvious. Enjoy!
Don't forget, you can now use the volume button on the side of your phone to take photos. I really like this!

Just downloaded Illustrator CC 2014 and none of the new features are showing up. Can anyone help? Thanks! I really need to figure it out so I can start using the awesome new features for Illustrator.

in creative cloud does it show as up to date? if not "Update illustrator"
if it does I would think about uninstalling illustrator and re-installing.
option for that is to the left of the up to date green tick.

Full screen is great but why take out my links bar?

Full screen is great but why take out my links bar?
Is there an option or customisation to show it in full screen mode.. I can understand taking out the file menu but that second delay is unpreciated to access links also.

Hi Atomic AI
can I achieve the opposite - I would like to start my full screen safari without the title bar, links bar or similar. just nothing except the content of the page - is this possible? I cant figure it out

In iTunes, click "Store", sign in with your Apple I.D. After singing in, click "Store" again, select "View my Account", re-enter your password and your account info will be displayed.
Click "Edit" in front of "payment information" and select "None"

Hi,
Photos synced from your computer can't be deleted directly on your iPhone. You'll need to connect your device to iTunes and remove the pictures by going in the Photos tab on your device's settings.

Mountain Lion installer will not let me choose my Lion Partition as an install location

Mountain Lion installer will not let me choose my Lion Partition as an install location.
Any ideas why?

Again, why will the Mountain Lion installer not allow me to select my Lion partition as the location for the install?
Good question. That's the main way it's supposed to be installed. You shouldn't even need to choose a partition. You purchase Mountain Lion through the App Store, it downloads to the Applications folder and automatically begins the installation on the drive where Lion or Snow Leopard resides as soon as the download is complete.

Having recently updated Firefox, there now seems to be a long delay before many webpages load. Is there any way to easily revert to the previous arrangement, for example by removing new features that came with the upgrade that I probably don't use?
