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.

  • 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."

  • 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.

    To answer your questions here:
    <blockquote>you cannot right click save as on an image, after the image has been dl already to save it FF re-downloads the image again. Noone can produce a config setting that corrects that. so if your paying for data FF is causing you to pay double. </blockquote>
    I'm not sure I understand this. When I click save image as then try again it works fine for me. Can you clarify what you are trying to achieve?
    <blockquote>while something is DL most of the time the dl stalls. You now cannot pause and resume a dl to get it going again, the old Dl dialogue box had a pause function, the new one 'right-click' shows a pause but its grayed out and does not function </blockquote>
    It is better to use an external Download Manager (DM) if you are on dialup or have an unreliable connection.
    An external Download Manager offers better support for resuming interrupted downloads than the built-in Firefox DM.
    You can use the FlashGot extension to integrate an external Download Manager in Firefox.

    This is most likely the way Firefox is set up on your end. What add-ons are you running since I don't see any listed. I need some more non-personal information from you. Please do the following:
    *Click the Firefox button at the top left, then click the ''Help'' menu and select ''Troubleshooting Information'' from the submenu. If you don't have a Firefox button, click the Help menu at the top and select ''Troubleshooting Information'' from the menu.
    Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
    *At the top of the page, you should see a button that says "Copy text to clipboard". Click it.
    *Now, go back to your forum post and click inside the reply box. Press Ctrl+V to paste all the information you copied into the forum post.

  • 1.4.1_03: Slow FileChooser ... When will the bug be fixed?

    Hi...
    As, I think most of the people know here, the 1.4.1 FileChooser is desperately slow on Win32. Is anything known when this will be fixed in an official release? Maybe 1.4.1_04 or do we have to wait until 1.4.2?
    When are the releasedates?
    Thanks for your help. We are releasing a product in August and are currently havint to decide to either call the native windows file chooser with JNI (ugly ugly ugly) or pray to sun to fix the bug... In the current shape it is unusable for us.

    I know that it is fixed in 1.4.2 Beta, but I couldn't
    find any plan
    that says when 1.4.2 is going to be released... Really

  • ACR 7.x known bugs and fixes

    Since Adobe stopped supplying Camera Raw downloads, I've noticed that it's become harder to track bugs and fixes. Hopefully, someone here can put me straight on the current state of play.
    Can anyone summarise the well-known problems with version 7, and when they were fixed (or are still ongoing)? Is there a 'changelog' somewhere? What is/are the main outstanding issues at the moment?
    Unfortunately, I'm getting to that age where my short–medium term memory isn't very good at retaining this sort of information, so it's good to have it written down!

    Jeff,
    I have been dealing with this since November. Steve G knows about it but hasn't had time to do anything. Here's the deal...I am on Windows 7 and Photoshop CS6. I shoot with a Canon 7D and G11.  I do all my initial work in the metadata template...my own info, description, keywords, location, etc. etc.  This creates an .xmp file. When the update from RAW 7.2 to 7.3 came through in November, I downloaded it, as I have all other updates. Then, suddenly, all images in folders with RAW files that had ANY metadata applied, would regenerate endlessly. This only happens with RAW files, not with folders containing jpegs or tifs.
    I tried resetting preferences. I tried creating new folders. I have asked if this problem is seen with Nikon RAW files and I'm not sure there has been an answer. I think people have recreated this even with DNG files tho I am not sure. I do know that someone in Adobe has recreated it.
    I then discovered that previous .8bi folders were no longer readily available. Getting to one is way, way, way above my ability and involved all kinds of ridiculous backflips but I finally got one. Then followed a solid week of me trying replace the 7.3 .8bi file with the 7.2. Of course, with no instructions, I was putting the wrong file in the wrong folder (32 bit and 64 bit). When I finally got THAT straightened out, it still didn't work. It took someone at Adobe taking over my computer to successfully revert to 7.2.
    I lost hours and days of work time trying to deal with this. Meanwhile, should I buy a new camera, I won't be able to see my own RAW CR2 files and will, instead, have to convert to DNG, which, frankly, I find to be a royal pain. Am I peeved. You bet I am. I've been asking, pleading, begging for something to be done since November. Some thoughtful soul suggested I try updating to 7.4 to see if it fixed the problem (the 'fixed problems' listed for 7.4 does NOT mention the recalibration). You can understand, after the problems I had in November, why I will NOT do this until I am absolutely sure the current, latest update has fixed my problem. And I will NOT spend another two hours on the phone with adobe alleged tech help to finally get someone in India who doesn't know what I am talking about. This forum has been far more helpful but please underestand, I am an old school film photographer who has had my share of problems understanding this digital stuff and mucking around with the basic technology of my computer only leads to horrifying outcomes for me.
    Jeff, are you with Adobe? Can you look into this?

The only way to fix this, is if you use a manual proxy configuration in Firefox.

  • Downloaded IOS 7.1 and now can't access Game Center or friends list in the games I play on ipad.  What is the fix?

    I downloaded IOS 7.1 on my ipad.  Now I can't open Game Center or access my friends lists in the games I play.  My ipad is about 3 years old.  What is the fix?

    Swiping up from the bottom of the screen with four fingers did not bring up the app preview. A single press on the home button still brings me back to the home screen, but a double press of the home button does nothing following updating to 7.1   Given that, when I added a software home button as suggested by DIAVONEX, I found that all of the apps WERE still open! So thank you DIAVONEX, and you should be careful, bobseufert, as your information was inaccurate.( I did try turning it off and that didn't change anything. ) I don't really want a software home button on my screen, but I guess I will use it until either there is another update to resolve this glitch or someone else identifies a quirky setting that I inadvertently activated...

    My iPad is logged into my iCloud account, but my wife's iTunes. I have uploaded video footage from my iPhone to my iCloud. It appears on the iPad but is not accessible in iMovie? What's the fix?

    You shouldn't have to change your iTunes account to not have to purchase it twice.  If your devices are using different iTunes IDs, just purchase it on one device, then import it to your iTunes library by connecting the device to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Once in iTunes, you should be able to sync it to your other device (assuming both devices are syncing with the same iTunes library).  (And even if they were syncing with separate libraries, you could use Home Sharing to copy the app from one library to the other.)
    Or, am I missunderstanding something?
