What bugs are fixed?

Is it possible to find out which bugs apple thinks they have fixed with a release of their software? I also have this issue with front row: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=485117&tstart=15
and from what I have been told, QuickTime is really the 'engine' behind playing music and videos and the ITunes (for example) is just a "skin" over this engine. Perhaps this is not true. Anyway, I would like to find out if the recent release of QuickTime fixes this bug. Also, is there anyway to find out from Apple if they plan to ever fix a particular bug? The only thing I use my mini for is as the head of my home theater, and the only reason I would upgrade is because they plan to fix this bug.
BTW, up until 3 months ago, I was a lifelong PC user. I thought that those PC/Mac commercials were really funny. Then I got a mac. All those people who had somehow convinced themselves that macs are more stable/secure/easier to use/etc. than a PC are just fooling themselves. I can't believe how much trouble I have had trying to do simple things and how much obfuscation I have gotten from people at the apple store, tech support. Just for grins, anyone here who thinks that mac is so great, try to play a song encoded as .flac in ITunes. Even better, try to get it to play two in a row without a gap between them. Then, go to an apple store and ask one of the 'geniuses' how easy that is to do.
Sorry for the rant... I feel better now.

Apple does not announce what bugs they fix. They almost never do for any of their computers either.
The current update was a security and minor bug fix, no major new additions or substractions.
The only way you can find out what updates do is to read through other websites where people "autopsy" the upgrade software and post what they find different in the code. Those are not highly reliable because Apple often includes things in their software that are not activated, just idle code.
If you click on the Apple links, all you will get are a direct link to the Update page from the users manual, to explain how updates are done, and a general message stating this is a "security and stability update."

Is there a way to see what apple are fixing in next release of itunes

the problem of defaulting to album view after ripping a cd.
always going back to the first song not where you were last.
the constatnt resizing of the window that chops off the status bar.
and the way they've messed up the search. i used it to limit it songs to one artist. but when you do that it goes to artists view and doesn't stay in the previous view you had. if i am in song view and i use search to limit my songs i do not want to jump to artist album view, i want to stay in song view. it's ridiculous. i don't like it when software thinks it knows what i want to do.
people said don't whine on here, so how do we find out what dev are actively looking to fix vs what they don't care about??
i'm giving itunes one more release, but if there is no improvement i'm switciing to another player. i'm already demoing 3 other ones right now.
the navigation issues make it is simply unusable as a media center for me now.

No, Apple very rarely make advance announcements of bug fixes.
You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
Ctrl-B to turn on the menu bar.
Ctrl-S to turn on the sidebar.
Ctrl-/ to turn on the status bar.
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library for the old search behavior.
Alternatively you roll back to iTunes 10.7. If so, first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.
You might also want to use iTunes Feedback.

What bugs were fixed?

Would it kill Apple to list the bug fixes when these updates come out? I really don't like Apple's secrecy.

From what I read in these threads the majority of posters have said that this is Apples MO with regard to announcing what was fixed.
A small % of posters have said that they provide this information when updating the computer systems.
Regardless, we have not been given any information to the best of my knowledge at this time.

My wife and i have an iPhone 5 6.1.2 firmware.. We both are having horrible wifi signals. We have done everything we can.. What update will fix this? I get full bars on my iPad 2 through my whole house.. Be standing right beside the router with iPhone NO

My wife and i have an iPhone 5 6.1.2 firmware.. We both are having horrible wifi signals. We have done everything we can.. What update will fix this? I get full bars on my iPad 2 through my whole house.. Be standing right beside the router with iPhones and it cuts in and out.. Drops from 3 wifi bars to 1

I am having the same problem with brand new Ipad Mini at my house.
It connects to the WiFi fine - but will not pull an IP address in DHCP mode, or if I set all the IP info statically - it still will not get any network access.
This doesn't look like a WiFi issue, as it does connect and is seen by the WiFi Access Point. All the normal WiFi fix stuff doesn't help.
- Using a Dlink DAP-2553 which is less than 2 months old.
Other devices connect fine, including Ipad 2.
This same Mini worked fine at another house and also connected to a mobile hotspot fine....so seems to be some weird IP issue with maybe this Access Point or maybe the older Router that I have (older Netgear)?
I am actually a network engineer and still have not been able to find a solution. Both the Ipad Mini and the Dlink WAP have the latest firmware loaded.
Wondering if anyone has found a solution to this problem.

Songs in music library downloaded from a CD and synced to my old IPOD are not recognized by my new IPOD classic. What is the fix?

Songs in music library downloaded from a CD and synced to my old IPOD are not recognized by my new IPOD classic. What is the fix?

If you are using automatic syncing with your old iPod, select that iPod in iTunes and go to its Music tab (next to Summary). Note how this Music tab is set up. Maybe you can do a screen shot.
Now, select the new iPod in iTunes. Go to its Music tab, like you did for the old iPod. Set up the new iPod's Music tab exactly like the old iPod, and Apply the change.
The music on your new iPod should now match the old iPod.

Why is Apple so bad at providing customers with information on what the problem with email is and what they are doing to fix it?

Why is apple not providing information on what the problem withe email is and what they are doing to fix, along with a time frame for fixing the problem.

It was because the problem was major. If you do not know tech, you should know that a two day outage usually indicates some type of virus, hack, or a bad software load that they had to unravel. The common way to solve that is to rebuild servers and put back into service. That takes time.
Apple did not want to admit this problem. My guess at this stange was that they loaded new software that might be associated with the new IOS and it crashed. To reveal this would be to cast into doubt their future revenue.
Either way. Run do not walk away from Icloud products and services. Apple has demonstrated they can not be a business partner.

LSMW: What are Fixed Values and Translations for?

Hi,
I'm working with LSMW and I don't know what are Fixed Values and Translations for? They are on the "Maintain Fixed Values, Translations, User-Defined Routines" step.
Thanks in advance,
Gerard

this is the step,we can process the reusable rules of a project.
<b>Fixed value:</b> Here you can specify length, type, flag for lowercase/uppercase and value in addition to the description.
this is nothing but CONSTANTS in your report programs.
<b>Translation:</b> Here you can enter information on the source field and the target field.
for example, your input file language value will be 2 characters and we need to send only 1 for LANG in SAP.
so here we have to do the translation of 2chars to 1 char.
so, we will give these set of values in this step.

After updating Firefox, the "What's New" page doesn't say what bugs have been fixed

I updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.10. When restarted, Firefox displayed this page: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.6.10/whatsnew/
Supposedly it describes what's new in 3.6.10, but all it has is what's new in 3.6. Nothing about what bugs have been fixed.

This is only a chemspill release to fix a crash.

Is it really worth to update to 2.2 or wait till the bugs(if any) are fixed???

There are many of us here, still a bit confused after reading many threads, to install the new Froyo update, when available.
Is it really worth this update to 2.2 or wait a few weeks for the bugs(if any) are fixed???

Ranked in order of annoyance:
1. Takes longer to charge I would say almost double
2. Battery life is worse with use, standby seems to be the same. WiFi radio definitely uses way more than it used to. I used to leave it on and always leave it off unless needed.
3. Scrolling on flash sites very slow.
4. We already had flash "lite", flash 10.1 does not seem to be any better at all.
5. Crammed more bloat ware onto the device.
Pros: (no order)
Device is faster just a tad, but not enough to justify the loss of battery
Flash light app is good
HD recording seems about the same as my other 720 so its just nice to have it
App to SD is not really a benefit with Incredible because we have so much app RAM on the device anyway
Auto update from Market
Chrome to phone is great!
Wireless N is good but really no benefit due to battery use
New voice search/integration
That's my 2 cents

I have a Nano gen 6. When I download photos they are all color negative. What gives, and what is the fix?

I have a Nano gen 6. When I download photos from itunes/iphoto they are all color negative. What gives? What is the fix?

It worked! Thanks so much. Now my next question is how in the world is anyone supposed to figure this out on one's own?

I am unable to import pictures from camera to iphoto 9 or 11 without getting message saying "the file is an unrecognizable format" They are JPG files like always but now i can only import from a CD. What is the fix to this problem?

I have always been able to import pictures from camera to iphoto without a problem. Now, for some unknown reason our iMac and Mac Laptop will not import pictures from camera to iphoto 9 or 11...what is the fix to this problem? It will only accept import from a CD.
