Why are the offerings in Newsstand so few and meager?

I use zinio for magazine subscriptions on my iPad. But I could be convinced to migrate my subs to Newsstand.  But the offerings are meager and uninteresting, except for the NewYorker. 

Many of us haven't found much of any advantage to Newstand.  Like yourself, I use Zinio.  Unless things change, I'll stick with Zinio.

  • Why are the themes in Keynote for Mac and iOS still so different?

    Hi guys,
    I love Keynote for Mac and I would love to love Keynote for iPad, but as you all know there are many shortcomings. One thing I just can't grasp why Apple still makes the basic themes so different between the two platforms. For the last years I always used Gradient theme on the Mac for my presentations. Whenever I want to play a presentation on the iPad I get the usual warnings (although I basically never use anything fancy in my presentations). Obviosly this is annoying, but what I don't get at all:
    1. Why do they use as a standard for the same theme different fonts and font sizes (Gill Sans 42pt on Mac vs. Helvetica 38 pt on iPad)
    2. Why does Keynote has a inconsistent behaviour between Mac and iPad in the most simple functions??
         - When I add a few bullet points on the Mac the font size is not changed but you get an indicator (plus sign) at the bottom of your text box to tell you that you ran out of space
         - When I do the same on the iPad the font size gets adjusted automatically to fit in the text box.
    I am not expecting that every little fancy things translates perfectly between Mac and iPad but that those most simple things are inconsistent is very irritating.
    Well, that actually feels better now that is off my chest
    What do you guys think about that??
    Alex

    Nobody here can tell you why Apple does things the way it does them, but you can tell Apple how you would like things to work at

  • Why are the nr of records in RSDDSTATBIAUSE and RSDDSTAT_DM are different?

    For a given period I am trying to find out how many times BIA was used.
    First I went to RSDDSTATBIAUSE table for the Cube ZCUBE123 and check the number in the field BIA_USED.
    For the same period I went to RSDDSTAT_DM view, and checked the number of entries for the same period under the AGGREGATE=ZCUBE123$X. The numbers are not matching. Why?
    And what's the right way to get this achive what I am trying to do?
    Thanks
    Tansu
    PS: This is not non-cumulative cube.

    Well, that's the question we had the other time as well why you cannot match numbers between RSDDSTAT* tables, Tech.Content InfoCubes and ST03N
    I believe it is a question to SAP Developers on what's the logic (filters? classifications?) when writing to thiese tables.

  • Why are the songs in iTunes randomly stoping and starting?

    Is it due to the processing power of my laptop? Because it has only been happening the past day or so and coincidently enough, my laptop has been getting slower and taking a longer time to load things than usual.
    Now just as I'm writing this, iTunes seems to be trying to prove me wrong and is not stopping and starting songs randomly, but just for future referenc,e anyone know what the cause of the problem is?
    Cheers.

    What are your hardware specs?
    OS, version of iTunes, etc....
    Is this on a computer or iOS device?
    iPods can change the playback speeds, but in iTunes on desktop/laptop, it could be caused by other programs.

  • Why are the keyboard shortcuts for new window and new tab (N) and (W) instead of (W) and (T) when I right-click on bookmarks in my toolbar?

    If I right click on a link in a page, the context menu allows me to open a new tab if I hit t on my keyboard and a new window if I hit w. In the bookmarks menu, these shortcuts change to w and n respectively. Hitting t results in deletion of the bookmark. Can this be changed so it is consistent with the in-page context menu?

    You can middle-click a link to open the link in a new tab.

  • WHY ARE THE UK USERS PAYING MORE FOR THE CLOUD SERVICES????

    WHY ARE THE UK USERS PAYING MORE FOR THE CLOUD SERVICES????
    OR IS IT JUST LAZYINESS THAT YOU CHANGE THE DOLLAR SIGN FOR THE POUND?

    it obviously doesn't, but then again some people or organisation only care about price when it comes to purchasing their laptops, and it is hard to justify making a special model for a selected few.
    Sure everything can be done if there is a market for it, but Lenovo won't know how large the market is before hand, as such they are hedging a bet by not moving with the market (which Lenovo have done on many occasions). I guess the finanical return is not the worth the risk for Lenovo to keep the 4:3 or 16:10 screens.
    But this debate has been going back and forth for a long time, so no point bringing it up again and again.

  • Why are the photos I copied onto a DVD from I-Photo not viewable by a Windows PC?

    Why are the photos I copied onto a DVD from iPhoto not viewable on a Windows PC?

    Because you did it wrong? It's hard to know unless you tell us what you did.
    What should work:
    Select the photos you want to share
    File -> Export and export them to a folder on the desktop. Burn that to the disk with the Finder.
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921

    Hi The next thing to do is to Restore back to Factory Settings this will get rid of any bugs . After Restore use same Apple ID /Password then you should get all your Apps & data back If you still have this problem make an Appointment at Apple Store . Cheers Brian

  • Why are the iPhotos not listed in the finder?

    why are the iPhotos not listed in the finder?

    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Why are the threads start and terminate randomly?

    Hi there,
    I got the program below. I am wondering why are the threads start and terminate randomly? Everytime, I run the program, it produces different results.
    I know that these four threads have got same normal priority (should be 5), and under windows there is something called timeslice. Then these four threads rotate using this timeslice. How do we know what exactly the timeslice is in seconds? If the timeslice is fix, then why the results are ramdom?
    Thanks in advance!

    package mythreadone;
    * @author Administrator
    public class MyThreadOne implements Runnable {
    String tName;
    Thread t;
    MyThreadOne(String threadName) {
    tName = threadName;
    t = new Thread(this, tName);
    t.start();
    public void run() {
    try {
    System.out.println("Thread: " + tName);
    Thread.sleep(2000);
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
    System.out.println("Exception: Thread "
    + tName + " interrupted");
    System.out.println("Terminating thread: " + tName);
    public static void main(String args[]) {
    // Why are the threads start and terminate randomly?
    new MyThreadOne("1");
    new MyThreadOne("2");
    new MyThreadOne("3");
    new MyThreadOne("4");
    try {
    Thread.sleep(10000);
    // Thread.sleep(2000);
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
    System.out.println(
    "Exception: Thread main interrupted.");
    System.out.println(
    "Terminating thread: main thread.");
    1. Firstly, I set in the main function:
    Thread.sleep(10000);
    and I run the program it gives:
    Thread: 1
    Thread: 4
    Thread: 2
    Thread: 3
    Terminating thread: 1
    Terminating thread: 3
    Terminating thread: 4
    Terminating thread: 2
    Terminating thread: main thread.
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 10 seconds)
    Run it again, it gives:
    Thread: 2
    Thread: 4
    Thread: 3
    Thread: 1
    Terminating thread: 2
    Terminating thread: 1
    Terminating thread: 3
    Terminating thread: 4
    Terminating thread: main thread.
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 10 seconds)
    And my question was why it outputs like this? It suppose to be:
    Thread: 1
    Thread: 2
    Thread: 3
    Thread: 4
    Terminating thread: 1
    Terminating thread: 2
    Terminating thread: 3
    Terminating thread: 4
    Terminating thread: main thread.
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 10 seconds)
    Why these four threads start and finish randomly each time I run the program? I use Windows, suppose there is a timeslice (i.e. 1 second), these threads have the same priority. Then the threads should start and finish in turn one by one. Am I right?
    2. My second question is:
    When I change the codes in the 'main' function into:
    Thread.sleep(10000); -> Thread.sleep(2000);
    it gives me the results like:
    Thread: 1
    Thread: 4
    Thread: 3
    Thread: 2
    Terminating thread: main thread.
    Terminating thread: 1
    Terminating thread: 4
    Terminating thread: 3
    Terminating thread: 2
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 2 seconds)
    Run it again:
    Thread: 1
    Thread: 2
    Thread: 3
    Thread: 4
    Terminating thread: 3
    Terminating thread: main thread.
    Terminating thread: 4
    Terminating thread: 2
    Terminating thread: 1
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 2 seconds)
    I tried several times. The main thread always terminates before or after the first child thread finished.
    My question is why it doesn't output something like:
    Thread: 1
    Thread: 2
    Thread: 3
    Thread: 4
    Terminating thread: 3
    Terminating thread: 4
    Terminating thread: 2
    Terminating thread: main thread.
    Terminating thread: 1
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 2 seconds)
    or
    Thread: 1
    Thread: 2
    Thread: 3
    Thread: 4
    Terminating thread: 3
    Terminating thread: 4
    Terminating thread: 2
    Terminating thread: 1
    Terminating thread: main thread.
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 2 seconds)

    Why are the application in the apple store are not compatible with the iPod touch 4g? Apple please realize there are some of us who still have the iPod touch 4g! I just want to know.

    Once I find the game i will truly screenshot that it states "not compatible for these models". I just find it RIDICULOUS that my iPod touch is in good condition and some of the applications that I want download sometimes are not compatible with my iPod touch 4g. I am not going to buy an ipod 5th generation if my 4g is still going strong since the year of 2010.

  • Why are the download options no longer categorized as in flv, WMP, MP3 etc?

    Why are the download options no longer categorized as in flv, WMP, MP3 etc?
    All one gets from the download drop-down menu is:
    (480p), (240p) or (360p) for example and the name of the video of course.
    The way it is now, I cannot identify the type of video I am downloading as I could before.
    Thanks!

    Ubi,
    Your assumptions are incorrect. Not all Youtube videos are offered in other formats; some are only offered in FLV format. Generally, only the very HD ones are offered in MP4. The format in which videos are offered are the decision of Youtube and/or the original poster of the video.
    I opted to not pay for the VDH converter. There are FREE converters that will convert FLV to other formats, but they do not interface with VDH. Even the VDH converter is a 2-step process (in both manual or automatic mode). The converter that is included free with VDH will put an ugly icon/watermark on your converted video--every frame of the video. To find a free converter, just Google "free flv converter" (with the quotation marks).
