When and why did they decide to lobotomize Siri

Siri used to amuse me when I was bored. She sang, she told jokes. It was fun to look for the easter eggs. not anymore. Which doofus came up with this plan and why.

None of us here would know, we are users like you. If you would like to provide feedback to Apple about your concerns, you may do so at www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.

When and why did they get rid of the emac?

When did they get rid of it? What for?

It stopped being visible on the main retail store upon the release of the latest iMacs. I have no answer to why.
You can always find used and refurbished eMacs. And they may also still be available on educational stores. Since I'm not a college student or k-college educator, I can't check those stores to tell for certain. Remember, when it was initially released it was only available on educational stores.

HT5085 I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list. I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

When and Why Did Apple Drop The 160GB Classic Ipod

Hi
I was going to go and finally buy a 160GB Ipod tomrrow.I see they don't even list it anymore on Apples site and Future-shop doesn't even list it on the site.
They only make a 120GB Now
When Did they Drop this and why???
Also Do any stores still have them in Stock???
I won't be spending the money on only a 120GB if thats all they make now
I've had my Ipod Mini 4GB since 2005 and thought it was time for a upgrade.
Please do tell me if Apple still makes the 160GB Ipod
thanks

Apple has discontinued the 160GB. You can buy one online still, but not from Apple. Or buy a used one off Craig's List.
P.S. Actually Apple is still selling refurbished 160GB on it's site, if you want to go that route. I also found some new ones on Amazon. Buy.com may have some too.

Who wrote the software that creates unresponsive script messages and why did they do it?

A few years ago I switched from IE5 to Mozilla Firefox because people recommended it. At first it was great. But gradually, more and more I get the Unresponsive Script message. I am running Windows XP with Norton security.
I have not added any other software since I switched to Firefox, apart from switching from Dialup to Broadband.. It does not matter if I click on 'Stop' or 'continue'. I have Firefox set up to automatically update. Invariably the error message is about a script that starts with'a.gfx' or something similar. I do not want this, did not ask for it, have not changed my habits or the types of websites i visit. I do not expect to have to become technically competent at removing software, because this was not a problem before I switched to Firefox and it ran fine to start with. Now Mozilla seems slow to start is another message I get . The problem seems to be Firefox not anything I have done. I want a browser that does not give me problems. Before I take my laptop to a computer shop, I would like to know why it was not a problem before and why Firefox has done this to me. If I have to buy a new computer withourt a proper explanation, I will not use firefox in future and I will tell people that Mozilla could not solve my problems. The least you could do is to (a) give me a thorough explanation and (b) send me an update that will fix all this.

"gfx" often refers to the features of Firefox that interact most closely with your graphics card software. As this can change over time, it is possible that Firefox has become incompatible with your old graphic card drivers, or that it is incompatible with the new drivers.
The standard workaround for this is to disable Firefox's use of hardware acceleration for graphics. There is a checkbox for this:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
That will take effect the next time you start Firefox.
More generally, it would be helpful to get more of the error message. You could grab a screenshot when you see it, and save those to see whether there is a pattern. This article has tips on screenshots: [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]

When I bought my Mac they gave me a free hp printer. My mac is a 10.7 and the printer is for 10.6 and below.... so why did they give me this printer? Can I use it somehow or should I ask for a different one that is compatible with my computer?

Can I use it somehow or should I ask for a different one that is compatible with my computer?
No, that's not necessary.
You Mac most likely sat in inventory before it was sold so the latest drivers were not installed.
If you tried using the printer and couldn'tget it to work, go here > http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
If this is a USB connected printer, make sure it's connected to your Mac, then at that link click: Detect Your Product
Download and install drivers for v10.7 / Lion.

IOS 5 used to allow Airplay between iPad (WiFi) and Apple TV (Ethernet) as long as they were on the same network. In iOS 6, now both the iPad and the Apple TV have to be on the same network and both have to be connected using WiFi ? Why did they change ?

iOS 5 used to allow Airplay between iPad (WiFi) and Apple TV (Ethernet) as long as they were on the same network, i.e. connected to the same wired/wireless router. In iOS 6, now both the iPad and the Apple TV have to be on the same network and both have to be connected using WiFi ? Why did they change this ? Means that the iPad and the Apple TV box both have to be in range of the wireless router when this wasn't a restriction before. Apple TV could be anywhere as long as it was connected to the same wireless router via ethernet cable. Seems like an unnecessary thing to restrict.

I have found with AppleTV that it is the IPV6 on the computer you want to access is the problem. The issue is that Homegroup on Win 7 or Win 8 requires IPV6 to work, but AppleTV won't work with IPV6. (So maybe double check you have IPV6 turned off)
So you have to make a choice - Homegroup or AppleTV.... but you can't have both, until Apple brings ATV up to date. (crazy that it does not recognise IPV6 - c'mon Apple!)
You can set up sharing individually in Win 7 or 8 and have the ATV access files that way.
Having said that, there is always the exception.. I have an old HP home server running Win8 and it services ATV - but is part of the Homegroup... have no idea why it works on both, but no other machine on the home network will talk to both ATV and Homegroup at the same time!

I just installed itunes 11.1.5.5. Now the format in Itunes is changed. when I am trying to add music to my iphone, there is no longer an add button under the Iphone device. Why did they have to change this? Can anyone help, Im tryiong to add music.

How do you add musci to the Iphone? I just installed itunes 11.1.5.5. Now the format in Itunes is changed. when I am trying to add music to my iphone, there is no longer an add button under the Iphone device. Why did they have to change this? Can anyone help, Im tryiong to add music.

Correct. When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box. This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing.
You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands. It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
10.6 software is not downloadable. You must purchase a DVD disc. You can order it from the on-line apple store

WHY DID THEY DO THIS? lOADED UPGRADES LOST ALL RINGTONES AND EDIT RINGTONE BUTTONS ON CONTACTS

lOST ALOT OF FEATURES WHEN I UPGRADED.wHY DID THEY CALL IT AN UPGRADE AND ALL IT DID WAS TRASH MY RINGTONES?

go back to your computer and when you sync it, uncheck your ringtones...then after it syncs like that...RE sync it again with each ringtone checked..It should be back on your phone. I had the same problem!!!

I took photos and they saved in my camera roll. they were there the next morning. I took more pictures and they are all gone. why did they not save and can i get them back ?

I took photos on my iPhone on yesterday and they all saved. I looked at my photos the next day and they were still there. I took more photos and now none of the last photos that I took in the last two days are there. Why did they not save? Can I get them back? My storage was not full. I just updated my iPhone to ios 7.1 a few days before.

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

Why did they take away the "Open In New Tab"option in Top Sites, Bookmarks, and History?

Why did they take away the "Open In New Tab"option in Top Sites, Bookmarks, and History? This very annoying.

Seriously - what could they have possibly been thinking? Mozilla, please tell us this was some kind of mistake. Accessing our bookmarks in FF-mobile is just plain bad as a user experience. And now without "Open In New Tab" we are supposed to drill down to our bookmarks for every tab we want to open? FF-mobile is almost useless without "Open In New Tab". Please restore "Open In New Tab" for bookmarks, thanks.

I lost all of my contact with yesterdays update. Where are they and why did this happen?

I lost all of my contact with yesterdays update. Where are they and why did this happen?

What update? There was nothing released yesterday relating to iCloud.
Where have you lost your contacts from? Your computer, your phone, iCloud.com?
If they are no longer in any of those places, you'll need to restore them from your most recent backup.

I used to have eight genius mixes and now I have four...I changed the genres around and nothing happened...I've added many more songs since it changed from 8 to 4 mixes...how can I get more again and why did it go from 8 to 4?

I used to have eight genius mixes and now I have four...I changed the genres around and nothing happened...I've added many more songs since it changed from 8 to 4 mixes...how can I get more again and why did it go from 8 to 4? I had the Hardcore mix and a rap mix and classic rock and grunge mixes...now I don't...I kinda want those back...the mixes I have now make no sense as most the songs on each do not correlate AT ALL to the genre mix they have been placed in. If someone could give me an answer that'd be great.

1. Don't confuse "Apple ID" with iTunes Account ID. You can have many Apple IDs but only one iTunes account active at a time.
2. If you "changed" your iTunes account ID, you actually have 2 accounts - one under the old name plus the new name.
3. You can't merge the accounts - they remain separate. Apps purcahsed under the old account name will update ONLY WHEN THE PHONE IS SIGNED IN TO THE OLD ACCOUNT NAME and visa versa.
4. Likewise, you can sync only the apps, music, media purchased under the account the phone AND iTunes are signed in to.

Scrolling - why did they change it?

Why did they reverse touch pad scrolling with OS X Lion? The old way seemed perfectly reasonable and intuitive. I guess I can get used (eventually) the reverse, but why the change? Instead of using my fingers to move my window up and down over the doucment, I now use my fingers to move the document up and down below my window. I really don't like it. Did they ask anybody before they made this change?
Hey! Who moved my Cheese!!!!
Tombo
(sort of like Rambo, only different)

Because they are trying to do away with the scroll bar on the right side of document windows. The old way the "scroll device" was conceptually linked to the indicator in the scroll bar so to scroll down you were trying to move the indicator (in the scroll bar) downward by pulling your finger towards yourself.
The new way is doing away with the scroll bar and linking the "scroll device" to the document itself. So now when you want to scroll down you do it by pushing the document upward (by pushing your finger away from yourself).

I resaved a draft email in yahoo mail on my ipod touch and it just disappeared - how do I get it back? And why did this happen?

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.
