Why Apple let these developers do this?

I find that some developers abandon their app without any updates, or even not selling them in App Store. But at the same time, they create newer versions app with new icons, claiming the new apps have new functions, but in fact, the old and the new just provide the same things. Their users have to paid again because the old version would become unstable in new iOS.
For example, Air Video, now become Air Video HD. I don't know how long I can use my old Air Video.
I think this is completely against the original belief of Apple when Apple created App Store.
ps. I hope I post this thread in the right place. And, I am not a native English speaker, I hope you would understand what I mean. Thank you.

You wrote very well, but the message should be sent as follows ...
For Apple ... Apple feedback.  https://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
For the App developer ... Direct to the developer.
We here have no influence on what Apple does, we simply try to help fellow users with technical matters.

  • Why apple comp. don not sell thier iphone independently ?

    why it should be through mobile tele. companies ?

    Probably the best way is to use the Contact Us link found at the bottom right of every page on Apple's website, including this one.

  • 2 apple ID's to 1.   With so many people having the same issue of 2 legitimate accounts by accident or whatever, why would Apple not let us merge them into one?  It would  simplify our lives and I don't see why Apple won't allow this.

    2 accounts to 1. I was so anxious to set up my new iPad at the store that I accidentally set up a new Account.  With so many people requesting to merge 2 legitimate accounts that they own, I can't understand why Apple is refusng to allow us to do so!  This would simplify our lives so much.  I have just switched over to Apple products and if I could at least set up both accounts on my iPad it would help -without signing in and out.  I could do this on my android.

  • Why are Apple letting their customers down so badly? - Yahoo mail problems

    Problems with Yahoo mail are being reported all over this forum now.
    Lots of people are reporting that they either can not connect to their Yahoo account as the phone fails to authenticate their details (despite them being correct) or that the phone will not auto-check for mail. Various solutions such as rebooting, restoring and changing passwords have been suggested but these are not having an impact for me or for numerous others. Neither is this just an issue for jailboken phones but affects everyone.
    Apple have sold the iPhone as more than just a phone. It was sold to customers as a complete solution for providing connectivity. It strikes me that the iPhone is currently failing to deliver some of its core functions. If I had bought any other phone by now I would have returned it to the shop. The only reason that I hold on is the thought that Apple will update the software soon to solve the problem.
    Why then is Apple not communicating to it customers about this? The impression given is that they are ignoring our please for help. Apple may not be able to fix the problems immediately but at the very least they should make an announcement about it and acknowledge that they are working on fixing the problem with a timescale for a resolution.
    Apple – I feel let down and I’m sure many others on here feel the same.
    This does not fit with your brand promise and if not resolved soon could have negative connotations on your brand image and equity. You may not want to mention it in the press because it will look bad but it will look a lot worse if the competition’s PR agencies get hold of it first.
    As a business owner I watched with interest at the launch of the Enterprise Beta Software. Reliability in a mail delivery system is critical and knowing that it is taken seriously by a provider is also critical. Apple are not currently giving this impression and I would therefore not currently recommend them to my peers.
    Come on Apple you can do better than this!!!!

    I take your point, however there are number of Apple employees who are involved in discussions on this website. Furthermore Apple is missing a big trick if they are not review their own forums (let alone other forums) to get feedback on their products.
    Apple has also made a big deal about the partnerships that it sets up with other companies (Google and Yahoo being amongst them). I do not think it is fair to pass the blame on to Yahoo. It is Apple's responsibility to ensure that the functions of its own products work. If Yahoo is letting them down they should be in discussion with Yahoo to resolve the problem as quickly as possible.

  • Repeat One!... developers of apple iPod and iTunes read this!

    It’s not an issue I think anyone can help me with but I hope the developers of apple iPod and iTunes read this.
    I am a full supporter and user of both iTunes and iPod…. But some things have always bugged me. :P
    Repeat one
    Can you please, for everyone’s sake, fix the repeat one function? Yes, when the ipod gets to the end of the song I want it to repeat the song ones more. But when I select next (>>) I’m sick of the song and wound like the next one. But instead it just starts over on the same track.
    Today I have to click menu, scroll down and select play on the next song to move forward… meaning I actually have to take the iPod out of my pocket and see what I’m doing.
    iTunes music library.
    Another thing which would have been practical in these holiday times would be a separate music library function for iTunes. In other words be able to select, load and save different library for different usages.
    Why you say?....
    1.I don’t need my holyday Christmas songs clogging up my library in the summer.
    2.When I do sound work for animations I like to have my sound FX and background music outside of my music list.
    3.Some people are, (believe it or not), ashamed of some of their music and would like to store theme where no one can se them. Say I invite the boys over for some iron maiden and they end up finding my backstreet boys album. (yikes)
    4.Say you have some very privet videos or sound books you don’t want your kids to here or see.
    5.When I need background music for some tabletop role-playing I wand them in a separate list as well.
    6.ETC
    And before you say it… NO… play lists, and do not include in shuffle isn’t the solution…. neither is users. Have you even seen how terrible Microsoft user system works? (Yes I know get a MAC, but you can’t always play that card.)
    This function really shouldn’t be difficult to make since you have the “iTunes Library.itl” file already.
    This is just my opinion so fare, but if anyone agrees or disagrees; Pleas post a reply.
    It’s all in good fun… As I said, I love my iPod and iTunes except for these issues. (Well I could talk about volume but… naaa, enough badgering for one night :P)
    Best of days
    Tee

    No Apple software engineers (the people who can implement these requests) contribute to these forums.
    Use either one (or both) of these links.
    iPod Feedback.
    iTunes Feedback.
    "This is just my opinion so fare, but if anyone agrees or disagrees; Pleas post a reply.
    No please don't as that will acomplish nothing. The feedback links are the way to go.

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

  • Why Does Apple let us buy movies over again??

    I don't understand why apple cannot tag the movies like they do for the apps that you have bought this allready in the past. I have lost a lot of movies that I bought from Apple that I didn't back up. Is it so hard to tag the movies that you have bought in the past? Will Ios5 help in the cloud to keep all products bought ???

    It would violate licensing agreements. Same with music. Apps would be the same if developers did not wish to let you buy or use their product on more than one computer.
    Just because you don't backup your data is no reason for Apple or anybody to help you out. This is your responsibility.

  • In Address Book, why does Apple let you create custom fields in the Template cards but not have them available for importing?

    I open Address Book, go into Preferences, select Template and under the Names field (friend, assistant, father, etc) I add a custom field called "Principal".
    I also add two more custom fields in the Email area.
    Quit Address Book then relaunch. Add a new contact and the new custom fields, Principal, etc. are there. All good so far.
    I have a Now Contact file with about 200 contacts in it. I export all fields as a Text file, Tab delimited. No problems there. With Address Book launched, select Import, pick the text file, leave Text Encoding on Automatic and click Open.
    The window that shows the fields for Address Book and fields for the text file side by side opens. This is where you match up the correct fields for importing. If I go to one of the fields from the text file that I created a custom field for, click under the Address Book heading on the Do not import, scroll thru the Apple choices of fields, none of the custom fields show up. Only the original Apple ones are there. Why does Apple let you create them in the Template area but not have them available for importing? Does anyone have suggestions on getting around this?

    While most likely not of interest to you, Spotlight can also tell you where the files it finds are located
    Hover the mouse pointer over the name, and press Command-Option and the path to the file will be displayed.
    As for opening a terminal session in the directory where a file is located, there is Applescripts that do just that as well as specific features in Lion/Mountain Lion terminal:

  • HT4314 Why wont apple let you disable or unregister from gamecenter!? why?

    Why wont apple let you disable or unregister from gamecenter?! Iv done everything I can but games log into it reactivated its notifications aswell. It auto logs me back in...I want apple to let you unregister completely why not?? I have disabled all notifications from Gamecenter romoved all games listed, i deleted my email adress registered, i changed my user name...and loged out but games reactivate it, I also noticed it still keeps a record of your previous score and when reactivated relists all games on your handset again aswell.

    I feel the same way -- I would REALLY like to remove this misbegotten piece of junk completely. I would SETTLE for being able to disable it -- although there are instructions for "disabling" it, it doesn't STAY disabled. I have followed the instructions, removed my email address (although it still uses my email address as the login and won't allow me to ACTUALLY remove it), made my profile private, then signed out... And the next time the device is powered back on, the account is logged in again and insisting on trying to connect to every game I play. So I deny access, "disable" it, sign out, etc, again... ad infinitum, ad nauseum.
    When the rest of my family switched to android, I stubbornly stayed with my beloved iOS devices and my Macs, but this annoyance -- which WILL NOT go away -- almost makes me think I should reconsider. I HATE Game Center, and want it off my devices.

  • I'm trying to download iTunes to an external harddrive but it wont let me change to this drive. WHY?

    I'm trying to download iTunes to an external harddrive but it wont let me change to this drive. WHY?
    There isn't enough room on my laptop and I have deleted all traces of previous iTunes

    I think you've misunderstood.
    iTunes ONLY works on the C drive.  There is no moving it.  End of discussion.
    The MEDIA can be house on any other drive (internal or external).
    Install iTunes correctly using the default options.
    Once it is installed and working correctly with everything on the C drive, close iTunes.
    Follow the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1364 to move the iTunes media folder.

  • HT201210 cont contact apple server error please help with ipad touch 4. im just fed up with apple please help me because why is it only apple with these kind of problems?

    cont contact apple server error please help with ipad touch 4. im just fed up with apple please help me because why is it only apple with these kind of problems?

    If you mean updae server
    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
    Otherwise what server are you talking about

  • Why is apple letting MYSPACE distribute its quicktime patches?

    so there is the huge virus that is spreading to myspace users via apple's quicktime. I understand that things have vulnerabilities but why is apple letting a social networking site distribute its patches? Its causing a whole brew haha haha on myspace with an anti quicktime backlash, everyone is removing quicktime for fear of catching a virus....
    http://news.com.com/MySpaceto+Apple+Fix+thatworm/2100-7349_3-6141031.html
    Apple said it has provided MySpace with the temporary fix. The computer company said it would be up to the social-networking site to offer it to users. MySpace has not responded to an inquiry from CNET News.com as to when the temporary solution would be available to users.

    Ever since I installed the My Space patch for Quick Time last week I've been getting Norton Internet Security "subscription expired" notices when I still have over a year on my subscription. Have you, or anyone else, heard of this internet security problem happening due to this patch, or do you think this is just a coincidence? Thank you, Joanne
    Windows XP
    First off it's a worm not a virus........Not to worry
    it's not going to blow up your computer. Besides
    viruses are really not a mac issue. How many have
    there been in the last 20 years. three, four, five,
    six ten, four? And how many for windows users. We''ll
    just say a billion.
    Please read the URL you supplied. And you'll know

    Bottom line it missing with mySpace web pages. Not

  • Why do I receive the message "this apple ID had not been used in itunes store " when  I try to install an appliance.

    Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    You could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review your account without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054
    If not then you will need to enter credit card details (which you should be able to remove after entering them) or create a new account

  • Why Apple do not let download Safari?

    I am just wondering why Apple do not let people download Safari for Mac using a windows machine? The only available options are windows XP and windows XP + quicktime.
    Do they think that users are so stupid that don't know what system they have?
    Kind regards,
    Alekst

    Hi
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    I agree there ought to be an easier way to access the download. In the meantime, if you need to obtain the OS X version via a Windows machine, Niel's post on this thread will get you there.
