When will Apple add an Enter to Send Message Option?

This is a problem that seems to have bugged many people for a long time. When using iMessage the <Enter> key adds a new line. This is great for emails, reports, Facebook, etc... but in iMessage it is a total pain as most messenger apps tend to simply send a message in single lines and not by paragraphs. Are there any ways to enable such an option? This is especially problematic for people who are typing on an external bluetooth keyboard (or a sliding qwerty case in the case of an iPhone). Even on my iPad the fact I can't simply hit <Enter> on the VIRTUAL keyboard while my thumb is right next to it and have to stretch it upwards in an uncomfortable fashion is a pain.
First world problems I know... but it would still be nice if Apple could at least add that option.
Any information on this would be greatly appreciated. Does anybody know if Apple has ANY plans to implement such an obvious feature?

Apple treats iMessage as an instant message app. I have never run into an instant messenger that doesn't use return as a send. This was more so common amongst text messaging in the 90s. Either way, I am sure that many people are divided, but, requesting the implementation of the ability to either line feed or send doesn't seem like it is without merit. Anybody I have ever texted or sent an instant message to have usually replied in a rapid succession of lines as though it was a conversation and not a send and reply to lengthy correspondence.
I'm no no developer but it seems like all this would take is a tickmark in the messenger settings that maps the return key in iMessenger depending on what the user wants. Some people like a line feed for whatever reason and some want to just send a message as quickly and efficiently as possible. I would guess sending shorter quicker messages is far more common in iMessenger.

When will apple add more emoji symbols?

I want to add more symbols to my emoji keyboard, will apple be adding
Any more soon? Or is there a way I can add more?

Apple doesn't control what emoji characters are available. They are part of an international standard so that they work everywhere.
http://www.unicode.org/faq/emoji_dingbats.html
There would be no point Apple adding extra emoji if they only worked on Apple devices.
When the Unicode organisation add new Emoji to the standard (which apparently they are working on) then Apple can add those new emoji to iOS.

When will Apple add AC3 passthrough for 5.1?

A little disappointed, just bought a new Mac Mini but no 5.1 through Front Row. I guess this is a known issue for years now, so does anyone know when this will be fixed?
Front Row only will output 2 channel stereo from the core audio (Pro Logic 2). Passthrough AC3 is not output through the mini toslink to receiver. I was hoping to use the mini as a media hub but I'm about ready to return it if I can't have 5.1. I've research numerous workarounds, some of them involving Perian and executing the libra52 codec in terminal but if I have to do that every time I might as well just throw the dvd in rather than have them played in Front Row. I've got it to passthrough through VLC but again, I was hoping for Front Row.
Any ideas...

Hi-
Use Plex to get 5.1 For Ac3 passthrough encodes.

Much much better than Front Row. It can do everything that Front row can, and more. Plus, it's free

When will apple tv add setanta sports to its online tv offering?

Will Apple Add an SSD?

I just bought a 27" iMac a couple of months ago. Specifications: 16BG RAM, 2TB HDD, 2GB VRAM. Can I pay Apple to add a 256GB (Which is the highest Apple allows) SSD for me? I would like to dual boot Windows 7/8 on it so I can play games when I'm bored (Skyrim). Despite what I've been told I have done my research and partitioning a dual boot HDD does NOT slow it down if done correctly and in some cases can be faster than having two separate HD's in it. I would like to move OS X to the SSD and add Windows to my HDD with all the other content from my OS X on it (I know this is a complex layout). I don’t care about semantics I just want to know will Apple add an SSD for me if I pay them to do so.

Call someplace near you and see what they can do, double-checking it won't void any warranty.

When will Apple ever make it convenient for the customer, I just bought an iPad Air and I'm very upset that I can only use iMessage, iPads are the biggest mistake to buy if you like texting family and friends. I'll never buy another one if I can't text using SMS or MMS. Is there any hope for a patch or new operating system to fix this issue, or an app to use with iPad Air

When will Apple Support Ultraviolet Digital Copies?

This is something of a cross post for iPad & iPhone, but I won't be cross posting it as they can be a bit annoying.
I'm a huge fan of digital copies, wasn't once, but now am. Having digital copies is something that does factor into me deciding when to buy a film on Blu-Ray and when to wait.
The new thing that is being pushed now is Ultraviolet, a quasi-cloud type service, for digital copies. However it can only be used by a select few devices; Mac (and even Windows) don't support it. Personally I prefer the standard digital copy, I maintain my library, back it up when I make new purchases and save my recipets in case anything happens. And of course a big reason I prefer it is because I won't be hopping between two services for them.
My question is when will Apple support Ultraviolet Digital Copies? Or will there be an alternative where the Blu-Ray will include a code for a traditional digital copy that if used will void the UV copy and vice-versa?
I would personally prefer an alternative as I'd hate managing two accounts to handle my digital copies.

When will Apple allow background processes for the iPhone?

Can't find a suitable subforum so I'll post it here, please refer me to the correct Apple forum otherwise.
When will Apple allow background processes for the iPhone?
When will Apple allow Alerts from 3rd party apps?
Even my first Palm Pilot allowed developers to use Alert beeps.
Why is Apple crippling the iPhone?
If they continue this, Android will be the winner.
Or will the next SDK allow this?

Background processing, simply won't. They already said they won't and explained why.
However, they are currently adding "Push" ability to developers (soon). Originally they did say they were shooting for Sept (but obviously that has passed). Nobody can say "why" it is late or when it will come. Just know it is coming.
Push in case you don't know will let a service (one service) run in the background that apple makes for the phone. that service will ping apple's servers. Apps that want to "run" in the background have to register with that service thus lets say AIM is on your phone, you send a message and close...somebody responds. AIM's servers will send notification to the push service...then the phone will alert you of a notification in the AIM app, you open (thus starts the app again) and it gets the message.

You can check the whole problem details in: Re: Ipod album cover problem "An unknown error occurred (-50)

"Anyhow Chris if you wanted to be respected, reply carefully without sarcastic, provocative dumb answers.
At last we all here to learn and help each other's with all we've got, so leave the selfishness and be a member or whatever big shot you are and be someone we all count on."
And what you needed to do before you asked a question speculating about forthcoming updates from Apple, was to read the Terms of Use about posting here in Discussions, specifically this part.
"don't add submissions about nontechnical topics, including that Apple rumor you saw on another website, discussions of Apple policies or procedures, or speculations/rumors about unannounced products."
The Terms of Use are Apple's "house rules" for posting here, which you specifically agreed to. If you can't abide by them, expect to get your posting privileges suspended by the forum Moderators.
Just a friendly heads up. : )

When will Apple add an Enter to Send Message Option?
