Where to submit feature suggestions?

I occasionally have some suggestions for IOS and other OS for commands which I'm certain would be extremely popular, such as a "shut cycle 5" for interfaces which would power down the interface for 5 seconds, then bring it back up (handy for remote work on uplink ports); or a "copy start run in 10 erase-first" for remote work as well (basically, undo all my commands from this point forward in 10 minutes, in case I screw something up and lose access to my device) and by the way, a copy run start or write mem should cancel this scheduled copy.
Where is the best place to suggest these things where there's a snowball's chance they'd be implemented?
Thanks!

Hi Gary,
I have just stumbled across your interesting post and I was wondering if you managed to find any information where to send suggestions?

Keyword Bugs and Some Keywording Improvement / Feature Suggestions

Tagging Bugs and Some Improvement / Feature Suggestions
Please excuse where I should use the word Tag or Keyword or vice versa!
1.       BUG?    If a tag synonym is added or changed then all affected photos should be marked for re-publish. I do not think this currently happens.   Should this possibly be considered a bug?
2.       BUG?    When viewing a smart collection in a Flickr publish service and a new tag is added to a photo it is correctly moved to the “requires re-publish” section.   However … the thumb selection in the grid moves to the next photo, the loop view remains on the photo just tagged and the key wording still reflects the just tagged photo.    The selection shown in the grid appears to be wrong.      When working quickly this can result in tagging errors as the user looking on the grid believes he is working on the next highlighted photo in the grid.      This is surely a bug?
3.       BUG?      A minor point and I realise this is probably not the correct way to do things … but a double word synonym entered with quotes for example “Ice Climbing” will create two tags “Ice” and “Climbing” at the flicker end of things.    Removal of this synonym and forcing a re-publish does not delete these two tags at the flicker end of things.    I may have miss-understood, but perhaps it is best for LR not to allow quoted tags?
4.       SUGGESTION      An easier and more powerful way to review tagging of current photos should be provided whereby it is possible to clearly see the current tagging of a photo and have immediate access to the keyword list at the same time to make corrections.    Having both the Keywording and Keyword List panels open in Library mode results in a lot of up and down scrolling for me and is a slightly inelegant UI in my opinion.   I would suggest it should at very least be possible to have the tags viewable in Loop info as an option - so long as no truncation is made and all tags visible.    Ideally a better way should be sought.
5.       SUGGESTION      It would be very useful when reviewing tagging to select to show all photos in the currently selected folder or set which do not contain the selected tag.    Note, I don’t think this can be easily achieved by using a keyword filter and selecting all keywords and unselecting the tag of interest as the pictures may have many tags.    The same might be performed by textual based searches but this is inelegant and its slowness precludes a browsing approach.     For example – for me it would be useful to look at all my mountain shots in a trip which have not been tagged with “Glacier” and it will be immediately visually apparent where I need to make tagging corrections.    I would suggest a “Not” checkbox is made available on the top of each column in the library filter – this may also provide a great deal of power for other situations.
6.       SUGGESTION      It would be useful to allow a means of showing all pictures with a certain tag but which have not been tagged yet with any children of said tag.   For example all pictures tagged with Glacier which I have not yet named the glacier by introducing a relevant child tag or selecting an existing child tag.    A similar situation occurs for wildlife and potentially many other scenarios … I would like to use a tag “Butterfly” which I can quickly use on my first pass… and then do the identification and child tagging on a second pass using appropriate filtering.   This allows for a step wise or “top down” approach to tag classifying things in a workflow.    I appreciate this can be achieved (as I do now) by using a child tag called “Unnamed butterfly” or “Unnamed Glacier” but it seems more powerful, elegant and generically applicable to be able to filter on a “not tagged with a child” basis.
I apologise if I have missed the point on some existing functionality on any of these points and welcome any suggestions.

This is a great post.
I couldn't have written it myself better.
I'm also in dying need of Korean input as I can't communicate with my Korean friends.
But I second every point.
I hope the tech teams are reading this.

Features Suggestions?

Is there any where that I can suggest a new feature to Apple for iTunes? Because I have a good idea for a new feature that they should add.
Many people (myself included) tend to create new iTunes Playlists on our iPods and either forget or never get around to re-creating these playlists onto our iTunes application on our computers. So eventually we have many new playlists with loads of songs on our iPod... and then something happens. Whether it be purchasing a new iPod, purchasing a new Computer, a virus crashing your system and having to wipe the computer, the iPod failing and having to do a 'system restore', etc. something eventually happens.
so the idea is to have a feature on iTunes that will re-create a playlist from your iPod onto your Computer by finding the songs on your iPod's playlists and then creating the playlist on your iTunes by searching your iTunes library for the same songs! That way you can easily sync playlists if anything goes wrong, and it doesn't import songs from your iPod!

Backlighting Feature Suggestions?

Where the heck is the iPod feature suggestion area?
There definitely needs to be separate backlighting controls/timing for running on battery power and running on AC/DC/USB power.
Powered example: when I'm plugged into my car connection, which is powered, I want to be able see the display. Would be nice to do that without scrolling through the menu everytime. The display is impossible to read dark.
Battery example: when the iPod is in my pocket, backpack or whatever running on battery power, it doesn't need to remain backlit long. I can't see it anyway.
Seems like options to set for each type of power would be useful to most users.
I primarily listen in my car and via the home stereo. I rarely run on battery power/headphones.

I don't want to have to manually set the backilight setting for whatever condition I am using the iPod. It should be smart enough to know when it is connected to a power source and when it is not.
When it is connected to a power source I want the opition to set it to "Always On" and when I am on battery I want it to automatically set to a specified amount of time (i.e 5 seconds).
I also like the option of having it cycle on for a few seconds when the song changes.

Where to send feature request for router?

Hi, does anyone know where to send feature requests for the router firmware? I want to suggest adding http://www.dnsomatic.com to the supported dynamic dns providers, as it would add tons of services with little work.

Today Verizon made available a new area on the forums called the Verizon Idea Exchange:

Based on the FAQ Verizon has posted it appears this would be a good place to enter your request.

ITunes User Feature Suggestions

I think it would be beneficial for Apple and the users to have a dedicated thread
for User based feature suggestions ,So with this in mind I hope you add this as a sticky or ad this as a category all it's own .

A built in album art/pdf. viewer : As Music makes it's change more and more over to digital distribution artists are making the art/packaging available in.pdf and ,or embed in the mp3's themselves however the user "experience" in this is laking .
A built in viewer for the "digital booklets " and embedded art would add that missing streamlined sexy appeal we mac users are missing and accustomed to .

Oracle 11g - Feature Suggestion

Hello,
I really do not know where to place this suggestion. However I think it is still worth to post it.
What maybe would be nice to have is a new column type PL/SQL. Since many pl/sql code is stored in columns (CLOB) and execute dynamically. With this approach is possible to check if the code compiles and also editing would be more simple since you can actually compile.
I am not DB expert nor close. Sorry if this is a dumb suggestions.
best regards,
Ricardo

Not really, it is unfortunately a common mistake, since you are sort of correct that this happens a lot.
Since many pl/sql code is stored in columns (CLOB) and execute dynamically.But it is still a mistake, since data is stored in tables not code. Code is stored in sub programs - procedures, functions, packages, and views.

Data is often distinguished from programs. A program is a sequence of instructions that detail a task for the computer to perform. In this sense, data is thus everything that is not program code.

So you shouldn't mix them up like that.

I'm trying to find where to submit a Q about Thunderbird

I’m trying to work out where to submit a question about Thunderbird?

The developer is http://www.mozilla.org/
Their help link is:
http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_messaging/topics/new
I already did that. It wasn't helpful. There used to be places here where you could discuss non-apple software. I guess they went.
However, if you have an issue with setting up e-mail you can certainly ask in any of the Mail forums for Mac OS X if that's what you are using.
Sometimes Mail issues arise from not understanding what mail settings are normally set.
Is that where you are having trouble?
No.

Where is "Submit Podcast" In iTunes 7? And more.

I'm trying to add
My podcasts: http://web.mac.com/jupiterspaceport/iWeb/Cyclotron%20Majesty%27s%20site/Podcast/ Podcast.html
But how do I do this when the links have all been changed. I cannot even find where to submit one anymore!
Last time I tried doing it in earlier versions It gave me some ambiguous error message:
"Error parsing feed: Invalid XML: Error on line 1: Content is not allowed in prolog."
How do I fix this? I already ran feedvalidator. I still don't know what to do.

OK I found the Submit Podcast Button... now moved to the middle of the screen
But my other question that I have also asked before still is avail to solutions.

New feature for Preview - Where to submit?

I have a thought for a new feature for Preview that I wonder how many people would say it is worth submitting to Apple, and if so, then where and how do I send it to them?
The problem I face is that I get a lot of PDF forms off websites (usually financially related) that are not created with proper form fields, so I am forced to print the form off and use my "chicken scribble" handwriting to fill it in, then I usually try to email it back, but sometimes I have to fax or mail it.
Well, the thought I had was, "Why can't I use Preview to select a font, click on the page with the Text tool and start typing in what I need?"
Ideally it would be good to be able to save the document with your "overtyping", but I understand that some PDF files are protected, so how about saving just the stuff I have added as to a PDF file that when I open that, it opens the original (blank) form as well?
Surely I'm not the only one that has to fill in PDF forms. Anyone else think this is a worthy addition to Previews already good capabilities?
If so, how do I pass this idea onto someone that cares?
Cheers,
Mark

Welcome to the Forums!
It is a good suggestion. FYI, Acrobat Professional can do this (not the free reader, of course).
Thanks also for understanding that this is not the place for suggestions to Apple!
There's no specific feedback page for Preview, so you should submit to the general OS X feedback page.
Links to other feedback pages (for your future ideas) are here.
Hope this helps...

Where to submit DPM feature improvement requests?

Where's the best place to submit DPM product "improvement" requests to Microsoft for their consideration?

Hi Mike,
Please accept the following feedback:
When DPM writes SQL databases from replica to tape, it rewinds the tape after every database, causing needless wear on the tape and tape drive. Today DPM is writing SQL databases to the end of a tape (at approx. the 2TB mark on an LTO5 tape),
and it's taking over 10 minutes of tape travel time for a 5MB database, then another 13 minutes for the next 4MB database. In the last three hours it's written 16 databases, taking over 10 minutes each time, their total size is less than 90GB,
and DPM rewound the tape after every database.
Please review the tape handling to ensure needless tape rewinding does not occur. We want SQL (and other) tape backups to stream data to the drive continuously until the tape is full.

Where to submit a feature request concerning an application (Mail) that doesn't appear in the feedback section?

Hello.
I (and I suppose many others) have a very, very obvious and needed feature to request about Mail.app. As far as I understand, usually such requests go into the feedback section (http://www.apple.com/feedback/). But while even iCal appears on that page, Mail.app doesn't—a fact as bizarre and incomprehensible as the lack of the feature to request. (Namely: Mail allows to set rules for outgoing messages, but it doesn't execute them (obviously a coding error, one that persists since the very first version of Mail. If Mail isn't supposed to allow rules concerning outgoing messages, then it's a mistake to make setting such rules possible; but can anyone think of a sensible reason to disallow such rules?). This is very, very annoying, and it's equally annoying that apple fails to include this application into the feedback page. It's almost like they don't want us to use it.)
Well. Anybody any idea how to get this through to them?
Thanks.

You can submit feedback for the application to the operating system feedback as a start, that is, submit to the Mac OS X that you are using.
One does wonder why there is not a separate category for something as heavily used as mail, but...
