Privacy Concerns with Downloadable applications

The following software available on Blackberry App World hijacks my device and forces the user into surrendering to it my Personal Information:
Capture Nux, By iBNuX - Petani Dihital
http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/42203/?lang=en
Also, there needs to be an avenue for complaints via email without forcing registration to twitter, blog boards, or any other subscribed service that is again not wanted.

ON that link itself to the app in BlackBerry World, there is this:
Email Application Support
Visit Support Website
You can speak directly to the developer, no registration required.
Good luck.

Privacy Concern with Apps

When is Apple going to allow the iPhone and iPad users to delete YouTube and Map applications from our devices. Apples privacy policy indicates that with third party apps, the privacy policy is set by the third-party provider and not apple. For Youtube and Maps that third party is Google. I don't like Googles new privacy policy and don't wish to use their apps. However on the Iphone Apple loads these apps, is not responsible for what happens with my information, and won't let me delete the apps - I should be able to delete these applications with the same ease that I can delete any other. When will this change?

Privacy concerns with Update Profile Photos

Hi,
I updated to Mac OS X 10.8.2 and enabled the system-wide Facebook account in the System Preferences.
The preference pane offers the option of updating contact photos in the address book with those found on Facebook, using phone numbers and mail addresses as search keys.
I tried this option and was very surprised of the result, in particular:
many pictures were fetched of people who are in my address book, but are not my friends on Facebook
those people had elected not to make their email address or phone number visible to non-friends
as in my country (Italy) mobile operators "recycle" after some time mobile phone numbers which have have been dropped by customers, and I had old records in my address book with some of these "recycled" numbers, pictures were added of "strangers" who do not have anything to do with the person in my address book.
It seems to me that this integration between Facebook and the contact list is too "aggressive" to say the least, and it is possibly breaking Facebook's privacy settings.
I believe that only pictures of actual Facebook friends should be fetched, and only of those friends whose phone number or mail address is visible in accordance with their privacy settings (e.g. I have my mobile phone number on Facebook, but it is visible just to "close friends").
I did not find a way of reporting this behavior to Apple, so I hope Apple staff is monitoring this discussion board. I would be glad to have suggestions from readers of this board for a better way of bringing this information to the attention of Apple.

Now I have privacy concerns with ATV2

After last night's epic failure of the ATV system, what we have learned is that every single video you play on an ATV2 has to be authorized by apple servers.
I understand it if the video has Apple's fairplay DRM, but much of the video I have in itunes is my personal video or DVDs i ripped with handbrake.
Last night Apple's servers were down and anybody who owned an ATV2 could not play any videos.
So keep in mind they have to authorize every video you play, and if their servers are down like they were last night, you can't play ANYTHING...

Gosh
I hope that's not true.
Am I correct in thinking you're saying that this outage prevented you streaming unprotected content to AppleTV?
DRM is a pain in the neck that only affects paying customers who want to use their content in a versatile manner.
I previously took AppleTV2 on a trip along with iPad, MacMini and old AppleTV - bit of overkill.
Where we stayed had no internet connectivity that I could easily use for AppleTVs.
No problems playing DRM content from the AppleTV1's hard drive.
No problem using Mac Mini hooked up to TV via HDMI to play back DRM content.
I ran into the authorisation issues when trying to stream conetnet from itunes to the AppleTV 2 or using Airplay to send things to AppleTV 2.
If Apple now invokes internet authorisation just to play anything they are crippling the device if there's a server or interent issue which is wrong.
This goes hand in hand with the fragility of the iTunes DRM content ecosystem in that in the unlikely event iTunes store closed if bought out/Apple failed and servers were shut down then your content would be rendered useless. This is quite unlikely in the forseeable future but who knows in 10-20 years time ?

Iphone5 - Downloading application from app store takes more than 24 hours to download and install, even if the memory size of app is very small about 2 MB. WIFI connection seems to works well - because the webpages browsing using safari is very fast.

I face problem with downloading application from apple store.
It took more than 5 hours to install google maps application and many other application took more than 24 hours.
It is very worst to see such downloading performace with my new bought iphone5.
My WIFI connections seems to be very good. As I can able to open many webpages at very high speed.
I can able to see my many HD videos open and play immediately once I touch.
Though i cannot able to test the speed, as the www.speedtest.net also not working in my iphone5.
When i launch speedtest.net app i get the message "Finding closest server" forever and it is never showing the speed details.
My laptop shows the 10Mbps speed with speedtest.net on the same WIFI network
I got much frustrated with iphone5. Can someone help me to fix this issue ?

Why is my macbook taking so long to download applications?

I have searched for this everywhere and I couldn't come up with no answers. I am having this issue with downloading applications. Every time I download any application it takes forever to download. Anyone know what's wrong ? Thanks a lot!

Depends on the speed & type of internet service you have which you never mentioned.

How do I access websites that warn: "Firefox is NOT compatible with this application. For best performance, please use Internet Explorer 5.0 and above...."? When I try to download any alternate browser, all I get is another warning that the alternate is "not compatible with your operating system." Is Firefox preventing this? The site listed below is a job application site. I've had this same problem with other job application sites also.

There should be a User Agent Switcher menu item under Tools, which gives you the browser names you can impersonate.
The menu item name changes to the browser UA you are presently using.
There is also a User Agent Switcher button, you can add it using View -> Toolbars -> Customize, and dragging the button to your toolbar.
See http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/features/ and http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/help/
You can just start trying IE versions (or the versions it says on the site) until it lets you in.

Problem with downloading apps. "Unable to download application" error.Help please!

I'm having a major issue with updating or downloading apps. They won't download! I try to download an app, it's says "waiting", then it looks like it's about to download. Then, suddenly, the "loading" bar gets halway filled, then it goes back to saying "waiting". This cycles about three or so times and then I get this message: "Unable to download application. Could not be downloaded at this time" with choices to be "done" or "retry".
I have tried EVERYTHING to fix this. I tried pausing the download and restarting, I tried soft and hard resets, I tried signing out and back into the App Store, I tried resetting my settings, I tried restoring the phone as a new iPhone, nothing works! I am at my wits end! I have an appointment at the Genius bar tomorrow, but I'm hoping someone here can help me so I won't have to keep that appointment. I've tried searching for my problem in the forums but none of the results are like mine. Could someone please help?
EDIT: I also tried checking the iTunes queue. No purchases are stuck in the queue.

Just wanted to update, since I can no longer edit my original post. I tried disabling bluetooth. That didn't do any good, either.

Hey, I am getting an error in updating with 'Adobe Application Manager' "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later."

Hey, I am getting an error in updating with 'Adobe Application Manager' "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later." Anyone able to help? Tried restarting etc. No avail.
I am running Adobe CS5 on my new laptop. Any help would be great.

@them,
I'm just a user like you who volunteers my time here. Your technical question requires the response from a support engineer.
I do sincerely think you'll get a better response by asking in the Downloading, Installing, Setup forum which I referenced in post #3. They have support engineers who monitor that forum for these kind of issues. This forum can only deal with general issues. Sorry.

Download Keynote - "this link needs to be opened with an application"

signed in to my account in Apple App Store on MacBookPro 10.6.8. Keep getting message: "this link needs to be opened with an application". (I downloaded Pages successfully 14 days ago.) What to do? Thanks.

Hi ...
Installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo may help this issue.
It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.8.
Make sure and restart your Mac after the combo is installed then try the App Store.
