When will Apple fix the bug that won't allow us to remove iTunes U files from iPods?

The title says it all.
I'm stuck with iTunes U files on my Gen 4 iPod Nano that I can't get off. Automatically syncing is not an option as my 75GB of music won't fit on my 16GB Nano.
Apple, it's been over a year! Come on, you're upsetting your customer base!

Create a playlist with the content that you want on the device, small enough to fit, restore the device and sync with just that playlist.

When will Apple fix the "Show my caller ID" glitch that effects service reception? IOS7 has done nothing if not made it worse

I have downloaded IOS7 specifically to try and solve this annoying glitch that disables the "Show my caller ID" and effects my service reception, I know it effects it as when I have no service I can guarantee that the "show my caller ID" selection is disabled, when I turn it on miraculously I have service once again.
Such a stupid little problem that surely is easily rectified.
When will Apple fix this????

Thanks for that but unfortunately been there, got the T-shirt, they replaced the phone with a new one, and still happens. I believe from what I have read, it's a software glitch that quite a few people have had problems with.

When will Apple fix the iTunes update msvcr80.dll issue?

Just for the records, my Windows iTunes has become unusable, too. The buggy update 11.4.1 ist still offered to my other windows installations. At least, it should be immediately pulled back.
When will Apple deliever an automated bugfix to this update-mess? I do not intend to de-install and reinstall all my Apple-programs on my Windows machine (in fact, I don't use iTunes on Windows anymore, my Macs run flawless and there I have the actual database). Apple: you broke it. You fix it.
So far, no official Apple statement to this problem? (Monday, 27.1. 2014 10:15 MET)

These are user to user support forums. There is no logical reason to expect a response from Apple here. Frankly Apple rarely releases statements, only software updates.

When will Apple fix the itunes error that insists the computer is not authorized when it is.

I know lots of people post solution to this, usually trashing the device and starting with a fresh AID but that is not an acceptable solution.
APPLE if you are listening, we do not want to have to start from scratch after updating itunes!
I guess the problem might be linked to the fact that 4 different members of the family use itunes for their device but I am sure this is not unusual.
It is unacceptable for the software to screw up like this, it seems to completely lose track of which ID is used for which device and now will not sync, saying
And when I go through authorization again

These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple. If you think that there is a bug then use the feedback page to report it to Apple : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
The account that was used to purchase 'CBi' is authorised, as is any other account that has content in that iTunes library and/or on the devices that are synced to it ?
If you being repeatedly asked to authorise an account : iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

When will Apple fix the Sonos compatibility issue?

How soon should we expect Apple to work with Sonos to fix the compatibililty issue with Lion? I am a Sonos fan for the same reason I am a Apple fan, their stuff works and is simple. I would like to upgrade to Lion but read that the Lion release does "not support sharing drives formatted as FAT32" which apparently Sonos uses. Does this sound like a simple fix or a long term problem?

Appreciate the direction to check with Sonos. I looked again at their website and Sonos asserts they believed they had a working software update that would work with Lion during their testing, and while they had a few bugs they were working through prior to the Lion launch, the one issue they have yet to find a work around for is Lion's inability to share music files. Is there an underlying technology reason that would cause Apple to block access to music files?
I am fearful that I will be caught in the middle and have to choose between upgrading to Lion or abandoning my Sonos equipment. I hope this doesn't become an issue like the Adobe Flash vs Apple issue. I imagine most Sonos equipment owners did not purchase with plans of buying replacement gear every 4 to 6 years, unlike the mindset when purchasing computers where we expect to have to replace in 6 years or less.
Hoping for responses that may help Sonos equipment owners to gain insight into the underlying cause of the problem, and whether we should expect a SIMPLE solution soon.
Thanks in advance to the many Apple experts for responses.

If I install lion on my Mac, will it fix the bugs that I have from tiger?

I have some small bugs that have crept into my system in the last little while, and am not positive on where they came from. One that I just found is themes in iPhoto are missing or not available. If I was to install lion on my Mac, would it possible fix these little bugs, or do I have to do something mo intense than this. I am no where near an expert on the Mac, so I don,t want to get into searching through folders to find out what the bugs might be, hoping that installing lion would be an easy fix for this.

No. iPhoto is not included with OS X. Furthermore, if you have a system not working properly then upgrade it to a newer OS X version you will likely introduce more or worse problems. I would repair the drive and permissions then consider some maintenance alternatives.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Tiger Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.1 or higher are Intel Mac compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. Versions 1.5.1 or later are Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts had been significantly reduced in Tiger and Leopard. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Other utilities are also available such as Onyx, Lion Cache Cleaner, CockTail, for example.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
Backuplist
Carbon Copy Cloner
Data Backup
Deja Vu
iBackup
JaBack
Silver Keeper
MimMac
Retrospect
Super Flexible File Synchronizer
SuperDuper!
Synchronize Pro! X
SyncTwoFolders
Synk Pro
Synk Standard
Tri-Backup

When will apple fix the bending problem with iPhone 6 and 6 ?

Does anybody know when new batches of the iphone 6 and 6 plus ,without the bending problem (bendgate), will be released ? I wanted to buy the iphone 6 but id rather wait till they fix the bending problem.

I would like to calmly and rationally talk for a moment. On the internet and with people so invested in a company's products that can be hard to do. I find it very irritating reading people saying it is a hoax while I'm sitting here with a bent plus myself. First off, most people don't take major mainstream news companies seriously anymore. So CNNMoney isn't where anyone needs to be researching. However there are multiple other people who demonstrate this problem. So check YouTube and remember you'll find what you search for. So, if you search for iPhone 6 plus doesn't bend you'll find videos of people trying to prove it doesn't bend. It is getting ridiculous, XBOX VS PLAYSTATION, Creationists vs Evolutionists, iPhone vs Android. Seriously, I have a friend with an HTC One M8 and another friend who just got the regular iPhone 6. I told the guys about the reasoning behind the bend. "All aluminum bodied phones do it" my iPhone friends says yep that's true and my HTC friend comes over and asks me to bend his phone. I said no at first because i was afraid i might actually break it... He never put a case on his phone btw... He talked me into it and I couldn't bend it at my full force i barely saw it arch. After much more research I found out why that might be. THE ONE THING APPLE KEEPS PUTTING OFF. The screen on high end Android devices is Gorilla glass very hard to break and hard to bend. Maybe it is time I go back to Android. Logically they have better phones when you don't think about if its Apple or Android. Well I am sure I will get hate messages and grammer corrections and really intelligent comebacks but I don't care honestly.

Prove you have a bent Plus. Post a picture, but be advised, I work for a technology company and if you post a picture of a bent phone that can be easily found through Google, I'll report you.

When will apple fix the bluetooth problem

Bluetooth Device Detection worked fine until the Ios 5 updates, now no-one seems to be able to detect devices...
i have also noticed now and then I have to restart my phone to connect to my wireless lan when I come into the house, whihc never hapened until these updates.
No infromation I have seen when a fix will be coming out or even recogntion that the updates messed things up...
Nice support Apple for all your loyal customers...

what on earth are you talking about?
Neither I nor anyone I know has had problems with bluetooth since updating iPhones to iOS 5.
I would wager in your case that it's user error. Replace User and problem will be solved.

When will apple fix the icloud photostreaming?

1) I want to be able to delete individual files. Why wouldn't they allow pictures from the cloud to be deleted?
2) I want to be able to reset my photostreaming, currently iCloud services are busted, since Apple failed to plan to have enough servers for their new iPhone release. When is Apple going to fix the iCloud issue?
Here's the problem that I am currently having.

my photostram only works on the iOSdevice but stopped refrehsing in Aperture. ( worked before ).
Now I have 40 new pictures in photostream that I want in Aperture, but they never show up.
Another failing feature of iCloud.
Yesterday iwork on iOS deleted my pages and numbers files instead of syncing them.
I tink about stop using icloud.

When will Apple fix the 10.5 update? I'm droid shopping today.

This update is awful! I've waisted several hours trying to get my phone and ipod and ipad working. Apple has 2 days before I'm done with them all forever.

I really didn't ask for any smart *** responses either.
Actually, you did.
Apple needs to fix the **** they created, or they're going to lose a valuable customer, of course in today's market, those don't seem to be important.
You already stated you were droid shopping today.
How'd that go for you?
Not being sarcstic but if the iPhone does not do what you want, get something that does. Why beat your head against a wall?

HT1338 When will Apple fix the sound sync problem in PhotoBooth video?

Suggestions online are
(1) reboot with cmd/opt/p/r This is not a solution but a temporary fix, a sign that Mountain Lion is not working well!
(2) reset the sound config in Audio settings. This works briefly, again a temporary fix.
Isn't it time that Mountain Lion was working?

so that means.. from itunes..or not from itunes?
sounds like 3rd party music then..
SO i would delete them from the itunes library and re add them to the itunes library.
TO test this out you should delete ONE SONG or ONE ALBUM and test that ONE SONG or ONE ALBUM only to see if they sync to the device..
are you using a windows or mac? Updated itunes?
need details on the Configuration...

HT4623 will apple fix the bug in the OS6 update

been having problems since the update like, no sounds, cant turn power off, cant copy and past on internet, app defects on ones paid for

Considering yours is the first posting I've seen in these forums regarding those issues, it is NOT a bug in iOS6.
In the future, before jumping to conclusions, try basic troubleshooting.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

When will apple fix the 10.9.2 crash issue??

10.9.2 keeps crashing...Finder, Mail, Safari....How about fixing it?

Performed any maintenance lately? Hopefully you have backed up all your important data just in case.
Since the Finder, Mail, and Safari are crashing, that's an indication the startup disk may need repairing.
Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If DU reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you can access the built-in utilities to repair the disk using OS X Recovery
