Thank you Apple for the worst update ever! This is what I lost last night..

I lost my messages! I lost my wireless passwords! I lost all the progress in every game I had! I lost email accounts that I had to reconfigure! I lost my mind!
What I gained? A slower iPhone that can arrange folders...
I want my things back but I guess... well you know... I guess I don't deserve it. I'm just a client to make proffit. No one in Apple will ever read this.

I personally think that's a crappy response and poor assumption. Doesn't the old saying go, make an ASSumption, make an ASSoutofyourself?
I'm in the same case as the OP. I back up regularly. I keep iTunes updated. I keep Windows updated. And I did "everything right" as was instructed by Apple. Plug in. Sync. Click Update. And that's where all **** broke loose.
My download of os4 went fine. It was the update that totally wiped my data, leaving me with only ONE of my updates (from Sept 09) in tact, but still unusable, as it throws the iPhone into a continual syncing loop. It hung up on the "backup" process, and if you look through these forums, this certainly isn't an uncommon problem, and more importantly, not a FIXED problem. After about 4-5 hours of waiting for my phone to backup, I finally thought maybe it truely WAS hung up, so I tried to cancel the backup process, and since I had backed up prior to downloading, I figured it would be okay. And if that failed, I figured it wouldn't be a big deal to rollback to my last most recent backup from about a week ago. But no. I tried to backup and I got stuck in the never-ending backup loop. And then finally after Restoring and Rebooting about a dozen times, I am finally left with the realization that I have a "working" iPhone with iOS4, but absolutely NO data and NO settings. The games were the least of my concerns. I had business apps on there that I use for my freelance business. The settings of the many apps I had on there will take me DAYS to reconfigure, and that's if I remember everything easily.
Thanks Apple.

Very excited about the new update - Thanks Apple for the keyboard update with new emojis! But why are there no ethnicity options for the families?

D.p.middleton the Adobe Application Manager has been available for quite some time. It not only allows Creative Cloud users to install their applications but also downloads and applies applicable updates. In addition it is also responsible for the licensing and managing your agreement to the terms and conditions of the EULA.
2. this could be due to you selecting a trial subscription to the Creative Cloud? If you go to one of the Adobe Creative products and select Help>Updates it will launch the update portion of the Adobe Application Manager which I believe is the portion you are looking for?
#3 I believe this was already mostly covered in the answer to #2.
#4 the Adobe Application Manager also receives periodic updates which affects both perpetual and Creative Cloud subscription users.
I hope this provides you many of the answers you are looking for? If not please feel free to respond back with any additional inquiries which you have. Also if you are experiencing any difficulties with the update process please post this as well. It may not be necessary to have a full understanding of the inner workings of the Adobe Application Manager to help you resolve your difficulties.

Thank you all for the responses. By process of elimination, I think the problem is the connection to the express in between the extreme and dock. I bought another express and tried it at dock, no luck, I then replaced new express where the one is between

I have an airport extreme and express setup. My extreme is in my 2nd floor office with windows facing the water. My dock is about 250 ft away down a very steep hill. I have the express about 100 ft down the hill in an electrical waterproof box attached to a tree as high as I could install. The signal is weak and I'm thinking I might have to buy another express. Any thoughts on the best setup for me. I ultimately want to control speakers(hard wired in) down at the dock with my iphone. I have a receiver coming with airplay built in.
Thank you all for the responses. By process of elimination, I think the problem is the connection to the express in between the extreme and dock. I bought another express and tried it at dock, no luck, I then replaced new express where the one is between extreme and dock, no better. I unplugged the express between extreme and dock and there was no difference. So I believe I am connecting to the airport express or extreme that is inside the house. Again because when i approach express that is halfway I reconnect. so if you can understand my chaos, I believe the express in between is not really connecting to the extreme inside my house. Yes, No? So I need to know how to know if the express half way down the hill is getting the connection from the the extreme in the house. This is wearing me out!!!!!

You are asking several different questions. If you need to store your photos, music, and movies on an external volume, you certainly can. Any externally connected hard disk drive will work, connected either directly to your Mac or to your Time Capsule as a shared volume.
You should not rely upon using that as a backup device though. Although you certainly may use it for both purposes, it is a better idea to have dedicated backup devices for a variety of reasons not limited to redundancy. You would not want to simultaneously lose all your pictures as well as your backup. If they are all on the same device, that could happen. Furthermore, a backup cannot back up the volume on which it is running.
As for adding an Extreme or Express, using its LAN port for your iMac, and then enable Internet sharing so you can effectively use the iMac as a "hotspot", you can do that too, but I am unclear on what benefit you believe this arrangement would convey for you.
An Extreme's Guest network is separate from its Main network; that is the reason for having it.

I've never dropped my phone for the 7 months that I've had it but last night I was at a park and when I sat down at a table, my phone as in my pocket and I heard a pop. I took my phone out and the entire screen was cracked. what should I do?

Probably not, since user-caused damage isn't covered by the warranty. But you can take the iPhone to an Apple Store and see if there's anything they can do for you. A phone company store will not service your iPhone at all, to the best of my knowledge.

Thank you, Adobe for the enhanced actions editor (Was: Thank you, Adobe)

Just want to thank you for the Enhanced Actions Editor... fantastic!
Months ago, I had requested to have something similar that Flash Catalyst had, and you delivered.

Hi Eddie,
On behalf of the product team and Adobe, I thank you for sharing your feedback on the new feature. We are glad that you liked it and we are hoping that it will be as useful to our other users too.
Have a nice day!
Thanks,
Preran

Thank you Creative for the new Firmw

From what I read on the boards, I think EVERYONE that owns a Micro should reply to this post in thanks for cranking out a Firmware that solves the hated Battery Drain problem. I work in an atmosphere where thanks is hardly given out (being a teen, that normally happens), so, thank you, because this deserves it.
Thank you.
Don't hurt me for having absolutely no substance other than that and wasting your time for posting this. I hope this doesn't violate any unofficial rules! If it does, sorry, but I felt this was needed.

yes, a very deserved tnx creative! so far all you have done is bring beatiful sound to my ears when i need it most
keep up the great work!!!

Just wanted to say Thank you Apple for creating Siri she saved me from dying- Thank you Siri!

Siri saved my life I was out bench pressing with alot of energy then towards 2nd to last set my energy level went way the heck down but stubborn me still decided to push it to finish the last 2 well on last one when I got it my chest my shoulders and biceps went out on me and I couldn't move the 50 pound bar off my crushing chest - since I had headphones on I rolled heavy bar on top of the headphone call/music shuffle button and I left it on the button till it went to Siri and with shortness of breath I said "CALL ALBERT" it called but no answer and so I had to roll bar over again and did same thing this time Albert answered and I said "Albert I need Help" seconds later I'm free wow huh!

That is great to hear but we are all fellow users on here and not Apple employees...give direct feedback to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback they would probably like to hear your story.

Thank You, Congratulations, and the Apple TV

Dear Mr. Jobs,
Thank you for creating the MacBook Air. It’s exactly what I’ve been waiting for in an ultra portable. The weight, battery life, SSD, multi-touch with CoverFlow, iChat with iSight, and full size keyboard make this the best ultra portable laptop in the market in my view.
Thank you for taking another swing at success with the Apple TV and considering the consumer while you were up at the plate. While I think it’ll be a homerun, I want to offer my view of what’s still needed to transform the Apple TV into a grand slam. The iEvery. Everything, everywhere, anytime. Or better yet, the iFreedom.
The top two factors in my view that propelled the iPod to reach critical mass were freedom and status. I believe these factors can be applied to creating the same success for the Apple TV.
Freedom
As consumers, we embraced the opportunity to transform the hundreds of CDs sitting on our shelves into a single, portable library in our pocket. The freedom to enjoy all of our music anywhere anytime, provided the motivation to digitize our music libraries, and consequently, purchase new digital music legally through iTunes.
For the Apple TV to succeed, I believe Apple TV or iTunes must facilitate the same legal digitization of our existing DVD film library as is presently provided with our CD music library. That will spark sales for movies in iTunes the same way propelled sales for digital music. Does Congress need to pass a similar law as AHRA for films first or can licensing with the majors sanction this?
Second, syncing vs. streaming. Once a consumer digitizes the media, the most freedom would be found by storing the digital film on a central home TerraServer that can stream content wirelessly. This seems like a slam dunk at home, but I believe what could propel Apple TV into the stratosphere is the ability for a consumer to stream from his home TerraServer to any location, via the iPhone.
The next-gen iPhone could stream any file; music, film, documents, etc.., at 3G speeds. The iPhone could facilitate a wireless connection to the MacBook, and thus provide remote access to any file, including a film viewed on the gorgeous Mac screens. The iPhone could be placed into an iDash in your car to provide access to your home TerraServer, and stream music and films into your car’s entertainment system, as well as hands-free, voice powered phone and email communication.
That is freedom, the iFreedom.
Status
The white earphones of the iPod. For the Apple TV/iFreedom, how about wireless headphones with simulated 5.1 when appropriate. Perhaps in the web 2.0 color, lime green. Also close in color to the Granny Smith. =^)
Thank you again for the MacBook Air. Thank you for listening and considering the consumer. Congratulations on another remarkable year of innovation. I look forward to the next 50 weeks.
Respectfully,
John McMillion

Works fine on 60" here...
What do you mean cut-off? Letterboxed? One side only?
HDMI should sync up without an issue.

Worst update ever - my computer loads slowly, is incredibly sluggish, and totally unusable.

TThis has to be the worst update ever. My Mac (if it loads...50% success), boots slowly, is incredibly sluggish, and completely unusable.

Don't shout. Yes, we will be seeing an update soon. Version X.1 is always released just a few weeks after the initial release. Apple tries to repair the most disruptive bugs in that first update, and does more finetuning in the second, which usually is released about two or three months after the initial release. That's the usual routine.
On some Mac's people seem to have performance issues like yours. I understand your not happy, but I suggest you'll be patient some more and update when 10.1 or 10.2 comes out. When it does run smooth on your machine, you'll find out it's the best upgrade (it's an upgrade, not an update) since many years.
Do as Canyonlight wrote in the fourth entry of this topic. Just use you backup and go back to Mavericks and wait it out. Nothing wrong with that. Upgrading is not a necessity but a choice.

SDK 3.0 now free! Thank you Apple!

Thank you apple for ceasing to charge 99 dollars to us plebes in order to access technical documentation and developer's tools for our ipods and iphones. It is much appreciated. I will need this forum less now that I can rely on authoratative documentation again..
And as I learn more, I might even shell out the big bucks for the spiffy wwdc iphone videos you just mailed me about. But before I do that, I intend to wade through the FREE CLASS on iphone development from Stamford available on Itunes U and taught by apple engineers. Thank you for that too.
It is these occasional delights which keep me a loyal apple customer. All of us techies can build a machine on the cheap for ourselves but we don't because we love your stuff.

bob,
thank you for confirming what i said. i feel a bit less loopey after julian corrected my letter of gratitude.
as far as the nda goes, i think almost everybody at devcon has signed an nda anyway to use a preview of something even if it is safari. Yes, I take it seriously, btw. Not sure how it related to the issue of charging a hundred bucks to look at documentation. It sure put a lot of guesswork into upgrading the os because outsiders couldn't know what they were getting or how well it might work for weeks after the introduction.
For instance I did not know that the os natively handles files from .numbers and .rtf-- there are tons of stuff I can transfer into the ipod as spreadsheets without buying 5 dollar apps to track my gas mileage,eg. And I will stop printing my nisus writer documents as pdfs to read in the ipod touch.

Hello there, dancingteacher.
Removing and re-installing iTunes can be a challenging endeavor and has to be done in a very particular way. The following Knowledge Base article provides a clear, step-by-step process of removing iTunes:

The "Additional Troubleshooting" section also includes a link to updates and conflicts with software for your Windows Operating System as well.

The worst update in Apple history

I just upgraded to the newest version of iTunes (11.0.1), and what a mess. I want the old version back with its simple and logical UX design.
How do I get the older version back.
The UX for the new iTunes is simply horrible. Did UX die with Steeve Jobs???

It's far from the worst update in Apple history. That would be this one:
http://www.wired.com/science/discoveries/news/2001/11/48149
Nearly all the features of iTunes 10.7 are still present. If you really want to revert to an earlier version a Time Machine backup would be easiest.
No backup? Read this post from Apple Support Communities contributor Limnos.

I´ve bought the new IPad3, what a disappointment the 3G does not work, no Internet available, APPLE what are you doing for the all the people in Germany who bought the new IPad3? I´m still an Apple fan, all my products are from Apple but I need a solution

I have been waiting since months for the new IPad4G 64 Gbt. ON recommendation of Apple Support I have changed my IPad 4G last week in the hope that something was wrong with the firts one I bought.
The one I have now has the same problems. WiFi is working however 4G not at all. Apple what can I do? What are you doing for the thausands of German Apple fans who have bought a IPad4G and can not use it. We need a solution NOW. I´m working with this tool and need to be able to rely on it.
Thanks for a feed back.

It would be advisable for Apple to react officially on it. € 799, - for something that doesn´t function is no fun :-((
Isn't replacing your iPad Apple "officially" acting on it?

Worst update ever! On my Vista everything is wrong! Back button never active; If I want open pages as new tab it opens new window; FF starts with blank page instead of Google; No url address shown on status bar when I move mouse arrow on the link etc

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

Thank you Apple for the worst update ever! This is what I lost last night..
