Why Apple memory so pricey?

Did a quick look today at the Apple store for a 2GB memory upgrade. $200! Found it online at various sites for around $60. What gives? It's can't be just greed. Is Apple's product superior than others? Do I void warranty if I don't buy from Apple? Which 3rd party source is best in U.S.?
Thx.

Why apple dont make siri on ipod touch 4 and iphone 4??? whats the difference??

why apple dont make siri on ipod touch 4 and iphone 4??? whats the difference??

The iPhone 4S has at least twice the memory and twice the processing power than the 4G iPod. That may be why Siri is onon the iPhone 4S. Apple has not really given a reason.

Why apple give up 1st gen iPad to support IOS 6

WHY APPLE GIVE UP 1ST GEN IPAD ,IOS 5.1.1 IS Last OS UPDATE FOR 1ST GEN.
AI........MY 1ST GEN IPAD CANT UPDATE TO IOS 6 ...GIVE UP

This question has been discussed several times during the past couple of days...concensus seems to run along the lines of the A4 processor and memory in the original iPad not being able to handle the demands of iOS 6. Performance would be so degraded it would not be good to use.

Remove applemobiledevicehelper.exe and why apple doesn't play by the rules?

Hi all,
I'm just wondering if somebody knows how to remove or rip out applemobiledevicehelper.exe. It's eating up resources and I don't need it since I don't have an Apple mobile device.
On the point of playing by the rules, I'm wondering why Apple believes it can just dump all sorts of crap on my computer that I haven't asked for, need or want. E.g. Quicktime, Applemobiledevicehelper. Apple seems to think it is SO cool that the rules somehow don't apply to them.

How do you remove Apple Mobile Device Support?
I just went to Add/remove programs, found Apple Mobile Device and clicked uninstall.
My iTunes seems to work fine without it, but I have an old iPod, I can't speak for the most recent models.

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.

I don't want to know how to delete duplicate photos anymore. I would like to know why Apple have not put in delete duplicate option menu in iPhoto? Very curious. Is it to frustrate users, so they have to go out and buy another apple photo product?

Just want to know why Apple have not made an options menu to remove duplicate photos in iPhoto? I know about downloads you can purchase to delete Dups, but I'm very interested to find out from apple themselves as to why they left this out, to die without knowing this is like having viruses on a pc or waiting for the web page to pop up on windows...
Option
A. Is it to annoy the user, to frustrate them enough to go out there and buy another apple photo product?
Or
B. Is it to annoy the user, to frustrate them enough to commit suicide, to reduce population in the world?
Is there a third reason? Can someone help me, otherwise I'll have to go with option B.

We have three operational computers, one does not have iTunes on it. Since Apple is saying I have more than 5 authorized computers, and I can't imagine what they are, I am afraid to deauthorize all my computers. See what I mean? I just wanted to ask the question about how I can find out WHICH computers Apple thinks I have authorized, so I can decide if it's safe to deauthorize them all or not.
You could have more 5 computers authorized if you ever, for example, reformatted a hard drive or replaced a hard drive without deauthorizing the computer first. Apple's system would see that as a different computer, even though you don't. There's nothing to be afraid of in deauthorizing everything and the reauthorizing what you actually have. You won't lose any data. Mistimp is correct, they can't tell you which computers are authorized.

The old calender iOS6, in the year view, it shows how much busy I am in a day by indicating the color intensity. But the new calendar year view is totally useless!!! also too bright!! Why apple does this?? What is the way to revert the calendar back???

Unfortunately, that's the way the cookie crumbles nowadays. Sir Jony Ive's GUI design for iOS7 has been met with much skepticism (to say the least). But until the company sees the compelling need for an adjustment or reversal, it "ain't happenin' ". So amble over to the feedback page ( http://www.apple.com/feedback/ ) and make your displeasure known to the company, OR make it known by not purchasing its products. Because as long as the iGadgets continue selling as fast as they can make them, they will see no need for change.
BTW, do note you are NOT talking to Apple here. This is just a user-to-user forum.
Edit: for now, you can also try out any of the alternate calendaring apps available in the App Store.

I would like to ask why apple does not support Whatsapp for Ipad

Dear All,
As a relatively new apple user, i find it difficult to understand as to why apple doesnt support whatsapp for ipad. I am mostly on the go and carry my ipad for business purpose, and as you know, these days social networking is an intergral part of our lives, i find it perplexing as to why ipad doesnt support whatsapp. Almost all of my collegue's and friend are using this, it becomes increasingly diffcult to multitask between a phone and an ipad.
Could Apple kindly make it available for users. It would be really convinient, especially for people in the age group 50+ who would like to be in touch with their families regularly.
Regards
Bala

Whatsapp is meant for phones, authenticated via the voice carrier link. That's what the developer (nowadays Facebook, who bought the company) decided to do with their app. Hacking that design sounds dangerously against the TOU for discussion in these forums.
You can always search in other message boards outside Apple's regulations for what you want. Regardless, you will need an iPhone to authenticate and activate you Whatsapp account.

Mac OSX 10.5.7 and GMAx3100: NO UPDATES!! Why Apple don't fix this problem?

I update yesterday to mac osx 10.5.7 my macbook with gma x3100. Exposè in VERY SLOW since 10.5.0 (on tiger will work perfectly), opengl performance are very poor respect gma950 and it is incredible!!!
why apple ignore us? why gmax3100 users can't use exposè because is very very slow and not fluid?
Apple fix this problem, it is RIDICOLOUS.

Man... gmax3100 have a POOR opengl performance under Mac Osx Leopard in 2d. It is NOT my problem but it is a known problem. Try to run some benchmark with gma950 and gma x3100.
Macbook c2d 2.2 opengl performance x3100: 23.28
MacMini cd 1.6 opengl performance gma950: 184.76
it is a know problem:

ecc.
exposè make 40fps and it is NOT fluid like a nvidia or ati card. Exposè is a simple animation, under arch linux and geforce3 (2001) is more more fluid respect leopard... and respect to tiger.
with this hack:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver Compositor -dict deferredUpdates 0
exposè is much MORE fluid so it is a driver problem (because with tiger there's no problem!!)
I have NO problem with my macbook.

Why apple tv does not sell in hong kong?

Why apple tv does not sell in hong kong?

appletv's only sell in countries where itunes have rights to sell movies and tvshows
so if your kong kong itunes store dont sell such data they don't sell the appletv
likely because they sell them at a price where they lose money but depend on rental and buying of media
to earn back those lost money but they can only do that if they have rights to sell and rent media in the place

Why apple tv does not show in itune?

why apple tv does not show in itune?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I assume you have the Apple TV 1.
Often a restart of ALL your equipment will help, it may also be a result of instaling or updating security software (check your security settings).
If problems persist, navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

Why Apple don't systematically support the latest version of OpenGL and OpenCL with a new OS release?

Why Apple don't systematically support the latest version of OpenGL and OpenCL with a new OS release?

Maybe because it's necessary to build on a version that's been out long enough to be stable before releasing? Who knows?
Are there specific features you're missing?

Why Apple don't fix half year serious problem with HD3000 drivers, Lion and Adobe products? Doesn't Apple really care about advanced users?
I have Mac mini and Macbook Pro 13". Bouth with HD3000. And I can't work at all. With Snow Lepard I had no problems. It's tiny problem in code. And such pain for lots of users!

If you have a problem with Adobe products, voice your issues with them.
It is the software developers responsibility to maintain compatability
with any operating system, beit OSX or Windows.

Why apple is not adding tweaks like activator,volume slider in multitasking bar and a blacklist app

Why apple is not adding tweaks like activator,volume slider in multitasking bar and a blacklist app?

But quantity is not everything.
Funny, because Windows proponents and users touted the quantity of apps available with that swiss cheese for security OS being "everything" or a big plus, but now say it isn't everything with iOS. Can't have it both ways.
At present there are about SIX blacklist apps in the OFFICIAL Apple Store which I can buy for MONEY but have NO USE AT ALL because of the APIs restrictions.
3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone APIs for security reasons. Andrioid is following the same path as Windows. Their so called "open" OS is a swiss cheese for security mobile OS.
If this isn't acceptable to you or having an option to block unwanted calls provided by the iPhone's OS is a very important want or need, stick with an Android or Symbian device that includes the option.

Why Lion is working too bad? why apple don't fix it yet?

why Lion is working too bad? why apple don't fix it yet?

Apple is constantly working to fix bugs that occur in operating systems and other applications. Lion may have some initial bugs that needs fixing, but rest assured that Apple is working on it. And not everyone is having problems with Lion. I for one, am not.
