What Software Runs The Apple Discussion Boards?

I really like the way the Apple Discussion boards work. They've seemed a bit slow this weekend, but other than that, I like how the system operates. I recently was comparing a bunch of forum software:
http://www.forummatrix.org/
None of the programs out there have the ease and elegance of the Apple discussion forums.
So, how can I setup a forum using the same system Apple has?

Interesting that Jive doesn't list Apple among their customers:

FYI on Apple Discussion Boards

I was on the apple discussion boards looking for an ical/entourage question. There are questions about BB's on there. I replied to one and sent the link for Mac's and BB's (this section). Mainly about syncing address book and iCal problems.
That's just something I thought I would post, not sure what you guys will do with it.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

I solved my own problem
I went to mactopia and found a way to import iCal to Entourage.
If you go to Apple Discussion Boards, and search for like Blackberry, Pocket Mac and Missing Sync you might find some interesting questions.

I Have 1 Question About The Apple Discussion Message Boards?

I Think Apple.com & Apple Discussion Message Boards needs to come up with an Apple App for Apple iPhone & Apple iPod Touch 1 reason is cause I Try to go on The Apple Discussion Message Boards on My Safari on My Apple iPhone 4 32GB from Verizon Wireless & The Internet is very Slow on there so maybe if Apple.com & The Apple Discussion Message Boards had an App Specialty for The Apple Discussion Message Boards for Apple iPhone 4 & Apple iPod Touch maybe then The Apple Discussion Message Boards will Run more Faster cause My Apps for My Apple iPhone 4 32GB From Verizon Wireless are always faster then The Internet on My Apple iPhone 4 in Safari, I Hardly use My Safari in My Apple iPhone 4 cause it's always slow, Sometimes it's Fast but sometimes more it's Slow, so maybe I Thought we should make an Apple Discussion Message Boards iPhone App for Apple iPhone & Apple iPod Touch? it was just an Idea it was more a Suggestion to come up with an iDea of it & I Did not mean to post this in the wrong forum if I Did? Maybe My iDea's & Suggestions may not be great? but at least I Tried, you don't have to come up with any Apple Discussion Message Boards Apps if you don't want to? it's really up to you or whoever creates this part of the Forum? i'm only trying to give you some help or Suggestion or an iDea whatever you call it & i'm sorry for posting this when i know it will get deleted maybe? or maybe in The Apple Discussion Message Boards we can have a Apple Suggestion Forum for Future iDea's or whatever it may be that you want to call it? maybe some people would like to post there Thoughts & Suggestions & Future idea's to Apple on here of what they would like & want to see as long as there is no Bashing & trashing & arguing with each other & i'm sorry if I Got carried a way to much if I Did? just thought I Would have a Suggestion/Idea on an Apple Discussion Boards App for Apple iPhone & iPod Touch maybe someday on The Apple iTunes in The App Store? but if you don't think my Suggestions are so great? its ok i'm Sorry I Bothered anyone on this Forum about this, ok peace & take care from Byron.

Apple sells unlocked iphones now.
They can be used with any compatible/GSM carrier.
Iphones are not compatible at all with Sprint.
T-Mobile is currently being purchased by AT&T.

Can I use the Apple Discussion software?

I have my own web server and I was looking for some good forum software. I usually use phpBB. However, I started dreaming of forum software that would be great and remembered how much I like the Apple Discussions forums.
I am sure the answer is no, but it does not hurt to ask. Does Apple have any plans to make their forums software available for other people to use?
If this is not the proper forum for this topic, I apologize. It did not seem to fit anywhere else.
Thanks,
Jonathan

I agree. I am never sure when to mark something as a question because it may be quick or it may be a hard one and trying to decide who gets credit for what comments seems like a lot more work than I am looking for usually.
You had a definite Question. I do not see the confusion in marking it as such
clearly you did, it certainly was not a statement. Others do the work to help.
Deciding whom to reward and w/ what I think should be part of your work in return.

Answer
n 1: a statement (either spoken or written) that is made in reply to a question or request or criticism or accusation; "I waited several days for his answer"; "he wrote replies to several of his critics" [syn: reply, response] 2: a statement that solves a problem or explains how to solve the problem; "they were trying to find a peaceful solution"; "the answers were in the back of the book"; "he computed the result to four decimal places" [syn: solution, result, resolution, solvent] 3: the speech act of replying to a question [ant: question] 4: the principle pleading by the defendant in response to plaintiff's complaint; in criminal law it consists of the defendant's plea of `guilty' or `not guilty' (or nolo contendere); in civil law it must contain denials of all allegations in the plaintiff's complaint that the defendant hopes to controvert and it can contain affirmative defenses or counterclaims Source: WordNet ® 2.0, © 2003 Princeton University

Power PC G4 (3.3) ♥ iMac Flat Panel 10.3.9 & 15 Alum.PowerBook Tiger Mac OS X (10.4.5)

I run Windows 7 and the newest version (10.6) of iTunes will not install. The installer won't even begin, and when I run the Apple Software update, it tells me that iCloud and iTunes have invalid signature.

When I run the Apple Software update, it tells me that iCloud and iTunes have invalid signature and will not be downloaded. When I DL iTunes64setup.exe, the program will not start (there's a bar that flashes but nothing actually begins). I've done everything short of reinstalling Windows to fix this (system resore, unistalling all Apple products, taking down firewall, running Windows FixIt - which either won't find the problem or gives me an error saying that the troubleshooter cannot be downloaded at this time, going into the security features to allow programs without valid signatures, trying to install earlier versions of iTunes). It all started when I downloaded the Decemberists new album on my iPhone, and it wasn't downloading it properly so I connected it to my Dell, but some songs still wouldn't DL - also, the newest OS for my iPhone still won't install via WiFi - and so I uninstalled iTunes first, but nothing is helping. And I don't have any security issues (Norton has checked). Any ideas? I'm at my wit's end after 3 days of this. Thank you.

Ok, so after like 4 days of going through all these different issues, I figured out that several programs weren't downloading, and it was an issue with my wireless connectivity messing up the digital signatures, so if you plug in your comp to the modem and delete your temp files, it should start to work!

I cannot update iTunes because when I run the Apple Software Updater, it says "'iTunes QuickTime' has an invalid signature. It will not be installed." If I try downloading only it says "'iTunes cannot update. Invalid signature.

I cannot update iTunes because when I run the Apple Software Updater, it says "'iTunes + QuickTime' has an invalid signature. It will not be installed." If I try downloading only it says "'iTunes cannot update. Invalid signature. Can someone help?

This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes for Windows forums.
Regards.

To whom it may concern, This morning I purchased an album, on listening to it three of the tracks are not playing correctly. I read on an apple discussion board that I should delete them and re-download them. This did not work as I was asked to pay for them, and one of the tracks was an album only track.

What Has Happened to Apple Discussions?

Apple Discussions web site. It seems that every single day periods of a few minutes to a few hours go by with Discussions "tempoarily unavailable." When it is available, it is often abysmally slow. Offhand, I cannot think of another web site with performance like this, although Dell discussions had similar problems a few years ago and was a contender for the title.
An occasional word of explanation would be welcomed by those who time after time are unable to connect to Apple Discussions.
Bob N.

Robnich,
I bet they are working on Apple Discussions to make your and others experiences better. If you noticed when those "temporarily unavailable" messages appear that it is during the "off hours" of the average persons day. Usually it is during the day when most people are at work (mid day) and late night/early morning around 2ish. I have noticed the occasional slow down, but I have also noticed the same effect with other forums. If you remember what Apple Discussions was like after the switch; it is 101% better. You may want to try deleting the Apple Discussions cookies and then going back.

Why can't I post a new topic in the Safari discussion board?

When I go to the Safari discussion board, there is no Post New Topic button.
Why?

Hi Scot!
You are probably on the Safari Category page.
From there, you need to click the Safari Forum page.
On Forums there is an option to Post New Topic.
EDIT: Yep!

No login to the Apple Discussions

Since Leopard, I can't log into the Apple Discussions any more (I'm writing this from my work windows-PC)...
Has anybody an Idea why?

I'm having trouble with logins to a couple of sites, this being one.
On this site, if I log in to this sub-topic ("Using Mac OS X Leopard"), it won't work. But if I go up a level, login, then come back down here, it works.
On another site, I come in every morning to find I have been logged out overnight (after having been automatically logged in upon visiting for months at a time under Tiger). On that site, trying to log in simply fails over and over. This morning, zapping PRAM fixed it.
So I also would like a solution to this problem!
