When is Apple going to fix SMB and TimeMachine

Does anyone know when SMB and Time Machine will be fixed?

Databases should be backed up by their own methods. Only they know the structure of their file storage.
If it is just a file, then there shouldn't be any problem backing it up or restoring with Time Machine.
I don't know what "profilmanager" is, so can't comment.
If you are having problems with Time Machine, see here: http://pondini.org/OSX/Home.html
If you can explain the problems you are seeing, it might help narrow down the issue.
If you need SMB access, you might consider installing SAMBA. That might provide better service until Apple finishes its SMB implementation.

When is apple going to fix imessage and FaceTime problems?

Hello,
I am having the same problem as a lot of other users seem to have: my imessage and facetime applications are not accepting my password. I found a way to (temporarily) fix this via deletion of the host file. Since then facetime works, my imessage worked for about a week and since then it's asking for password, about every 5 minutes. About an hour ago it stopped accepting my password and is stuck doing whatever- btw: It works on my iPhone 5. Now I could waste another 2 to 3 hours to find a way to fix it, try another way if the first one won't work and so on. But I don't want to. I spent A LOT of money on my MBP and my iPhone 5. I was promised an "integrated system" where "everything just works". It stopped working a long time ago and thing about these applications is that they are integrated. They are system apps and searching through different forums will show you that a lot of people have a common problem regarding IM and FT.
So when is Apple finally going to fix this???

HI,
You are probably already aware of the FaceTime, Games Centre and Messages Trouble Shooting document as item 5 is about the Hosts file.
There is the one about the ports FaceTime and iMessages use regarding iPhones. (that is to say it was written from iPhones before the Mac version of Messages was released.)
Despite the number of posts on the subject making it look like a substantial problem the numbers are actually quite small compared to the number of Mountain Lion Installs.
As Apple never say when they are going to change something it will be impossible say if and when they might fix this for the ones having the issue.

When is Apple going to fix the problems with FCP and Leopard

Apple,
This is a nightmare.
I wish I never did the upgrade.
It's horrible that Apple released an OSX update that doesn't work with some of the most used Apple applications.
I don't know what I should do.
Compressor doesn't work, export using Quicktime is having problems...and that's just what I've found so far.
When is Apple going to fix this mess?

Did you heed ANY of the warnings that were posted here, on LAFCPUG.org, or the CreativeCow.net? We gave many pointers on what to do before you upgrade, so that if you do run into issues with the new (and you WILL run into issues with the new OS) you could always go back to the stable version.

Apple will fix it when they fix it...that's all we can say. Keep sending in your issues and when they can, they will issue updates.
The rule of thumb is that if you have a good working edit system, don't mess with it. The machine that I use to earn a living, that is still on 10.4.9 and FCP 5.1.4. My laptop, that I use occasionally for editing, but mainly for e-mail, word processing, web surfing, that I updated. And I am testing FCP on this. So far, I am not suffering any issues.
If you backed up your system, you could have gone back to it.

When is Apple going to fix the problem with slow Time Machine backups with Mavericks?

I have been with Apple tech support and they got my Time Machine working by doing a spotlight re-indexing and a safe boot. This worked for about three days and I am back to very slow backups. It is impossible for Time Machine to back up every hour when it takes six hours to do the back up. I don't want to take hours to re-index with spotlight all the time. I think taking six hours to do an incremental backup is a bit much. I see that there are many people that have this trouble and it all started with an upgrade to Mavericks. The question is when is Apple going to fix this problem of slow backups with Time Machine for Mavericks. I have wasted more time than I care to. I am think of going back to Windows. I need good solid backups of my machine and Apple has taken it away with the new Mavericks. Oh, I am using the UBS 3.0 connection so the drive should not be the problem. Also this has occurred in about the last five months, so I am not sure this problem was in the original Marvericks.

Allen Thanks for your reply. All I can say is several months ago Time Machine quit working in a reasonable manner. Right now I have a Time Machine backup that has been running all night and still has three hours to go to backup 6 GB of data. I am using a OWC 1.5 TB drive connected directly to my MacBook with a USB 3.0 connection. In the resent past I have added Dropbox, GoogleDrive and a MAMP server on which I am using a program called Learning With Text from Sourceforge. There have been a lot of questions on the forum about people having very slow Time Machine back ups, so it appears to be a general problem. I should also state I am getting this very slow backup after doing the Spotlight re-indexing and the Safe Restart procedure that was told to me by apple support. I have a 750 GB drive in my MacBook Pro which I am constantly trying to keep at a 5% level of free space. This might be a problem also. However, I am working on a lot of things and like to have a lot of things on my drive. Also the heavily loaded drive has not be a problem in the past. This slow backup business started about three months ago, so something has happen in a very short time period. Now it seems even the procedure that Apple support gave me is not working. Currently I am in China and it is difficult to interact with Apple support to solve this problem, but because I am in China having my computer backed up is critical. I have run the EtreCheck and am attaching the results below. I would appreciate any suggestions. If necessary I will clear out more of my hard drive if that appears to be a solution. The Time Machine drive was recently reformed so I only have a few backups on it. I also don't run the Time Machine all the time as I don't want multi-hour backups running all the time. I run it every few days.
Here is the info from EtreCheck:

My iTunes songs won't drag when using wacom tablet mouse. When is Apple going to fix this? Wacom says apple was made aware of this as long ago as July 2011.

When Is Apple Going to Fix Compressor!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have had nothing but trouble trying to use compressore from quality issues to the dreaded can not find background process error. If finally got it to work for the fourth time after three hours waisted.
WHEN IS APPLE GOING TO DO SOMETHING AND QUIT IGNORING US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am extremly tired of waisting time trying to fix my software. I wish I would have stayed with Final Cut Four and DVD 3 and saved the money I spent on new computer and software. At least it worked!!!
PLEASE FIX THIS SOOOOONN APPLE!!!!!!!! STOP WAISTING OUR TIME!!!!!!

I made a post this morning titled "Petition Apple to fix Compressor" and the mods removed it. Not surprising. I think the best thing we can do is send an email directly to Steve Jobs. I have sent emails in the past and have gotten a response from the appropiate team at Apple.
If that doesn't work, try emailing journalists like Jason O'Grady or the guys at Apple Insider. They'll probably pick up on it and make a big stink.
Hey.. ya gotta do what you gotta do. It's not right to ignore bugs in a professional application.

These are mostly user to user discussions, so we don't know.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

When is Apple going to fix the iOS6 App Store app?

When is Apple going to fix the iOS6 App Store app? With the iOS5 version, you could easily view apps by release date in order to keep up with the new offerings. I usually bought one or two newly-released apps every week (many of which admittedly got deleted within a few days, but at least I tried them...). Now (with the new version of the App Store) I can't view apps by release date (at least not a list longer than a dozen or so titles in a specific subject area). As a result, I rarely buy new apps any more. It seems to me that it would be in Apple's best interests to fix this problem.

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.

When is apple going to fix the music app?

When is apple going to fix the music app?

Your right!! I should have given details.
I don't like the new music app for iOS 5.
You need to constantly use iTunes to change play list content etc.
Podcasts won't play in a loop.
Even the iPhone has more control in the music app.
I wish Apple had given more music tools instead of removing them.
I am having a hard time finding the feedback form. Can you help with a link?
I'll bookmark it for future use.

When is apple going to fix the "no service" and dropping calls on iPhone 4s?

My iPhone 4s keeps losing signal dropping calls and displaying no service when is apple goin to fix these issues what ever about a weak battery I think these other issues are far more important

Since you said MY IPHONE the answer is that Apple is never going to fix it unless you call them or take it to a store for diagnosis. MY IPHONE has none of these problems. And it doesn't have a battery problem either.

When is Apple going to fix the problems with IOS8 Safari either won't work or is very slow.why can't you contact Apple themselves rather than this method?

ssince updating my IPad to IOS8 Safari does not work properly ie Marriott website it tells me no server is available yet Google works and other web search have the same problem when is Apple going to get fixes out soon I hope.Also why can't we contact Apple direct on this matter ?

Try some basic troubleshooting steps. Clear Safari, force close the app and reset the iPad.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
In order to close apps in iOS 8, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
There re are ways to contact Apple directly. Look here for help.
