  • Why did they stop selling the iPad 3?

    How come they made it thicker and heaver and then just stopped making it and brang out the exact same thing that is still thicker and heavier but just added the lightning connector and A6x?
    I think that was pretty pointless.
    Does any one know why this happened? if you do or have a diffrent point of view to me post a reply.
    Thanks.

    You think a faster processor for the same cost is pointless? Ok.
    Companies are constantly improving their products, releasing better models and ceasing production of older models.
    It would be pretty pointless releasing an improved model, and then continuing to make and sell an older, worse model. Who would want the older, slower model?
    Next week, it's highly likely there will be even newer iPads and the current models will cease to be made and sold.
    It's called progress.

  • Why did apple stop selling carbon audio's zooka bluetooth wireless speakers?

    I saw this very interesting Bluetooth speaker from Carbon Audio called Zooka in Apple store few weeks back, but I was still trying to make up my mind about it, but to my surprise this model siezed to exit on the online store, and all searches aggersively point me to other models when I insist on searching for it by name.
    Question: why did apple stop selling carbon audio's zooka bluetooth wireless speakers?  Is there something wrong with it, or is it one of thse commercial disputes that I dont need to know about, and I'm good to look for it elsewhere.

    I just got this reply back fron Carbon Audio's help Desk if anyone's interested:
    Apple had an issue with our labeling, forcing us to recall all of our product to relabel it. That process is complete and Apple will be restocking their shelves very shortly."

  • Why did they take away the "Open In New Tab"option in Top Sites, Bookmarks, and History?

    Why did they take away the "Open In New Tab"option in Top Sites, Bookmarks, and History? This very annoying.

    Seriously - what could they have possibly been thinking? Mozilla, please tell us this was some kind of mistake. Accessing our bookmarks in FF-mobile is just plain bad as a user experience. And now without "Open In New Tab" we are supposed to drill down to our bookmarks for every tab we want to open? FF-mobile is almost useless without "Open In New Tab". Please restore "Open In New Tab" for bookmarks, thanks.

  • Why did they take out the add all songs option with IOS7

    Why did they take out the add all songs option with IOS7

    I can not read the minds of the Adobe engineers or Marketing people. Nesting a sequence is not much more trouble than applying an effect.
    If you are creating a PIP, then a nested sequence is probably your solution. If you are not nesting, scale and crop, then put a white matte under it.
    This is not a great place for asking questions that have no answers outside of internal Adobe decisions. This is, however, a great place to get workarounds.

  • Is the 3rd generation ipad the ipad with retina display as how apple calls it

    I see on the apple page the new retina display ipad. Is that the 3rd gen ipad

    Depends on which site you're looking at. On apple's page it's the 4th gen ipad. On other retailers' sites it's the refurbished ipad (commonly known as ipad 3), for the same price.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why has Verizon stopped selling the Kin Twom?

    Several possibilities:
    Is it because they don't want people to be able to access the Web without using data? They would prefer pushing people to smartphones?
    Is it because the manufacture has stopped making it? Are there REALLY no new ones available?
    Is it because it isn't selling well?
    My son liked mine so much that he wanted one. He had to resort to buying one through a Craigslist ad.

    Thanks to the community members for your input. Indestructo, were you needing assistance with the messaging issue? Were you able to send your messages? It is a good practice to refresh your phone by power cycling it off and on once every few days. This only takes a few moments and will refresh your signal connections. The longer the device is kept on without power cycling, it can affect how the device operates. Here's a link for assistance in troubleshooting issues for text messaging.  If your needing online assistance with your Kin Twom, here is a link. You could also send me a private message if you need further assistance.

  • Why did they take away the playlist feature for movies and tv shows?

    The subject line pretty much sums it up but does anyone know why they took it away? It was seriously the greatest thing ever with my kid's tv shows. I could just turn on the playlist and they could watch a few episodes back to back without having to mess with the remote.

    I don't think they have.
    A recent software update may have reset your Settings which by default is playlists only for music.
    Check AppleTV Setting menus and enable playlists for all not just music.
    Let me know if you can't find the setting in the menu.

  • Does anyone know if they are selling the 5th generation itouch with a 8gb capacity ?

    I don't want to get a 32 gb itouch for 300 so I was wondering if they sold and 8gb version for less. I can't seem to find any post that says it doesn't.

    i think they won`t sell an ipod touch 5g with 8 gb because this is too less capacity for much music or apps

  • Why did apple stop making the 40gb photo ipod?

    ????

    The cost differential between the different sized hard drives decreased and, to simplify the product line, the 40GB iPod Photo was discontinued.

  • Why does my 3rd generation iPad freeze on an app and then go to the home screen immediately?

    Well, my new iPad closes the application and goes to the homes careen. This has been happening on my iPad 2 recently but then I bought the 3rd generation iPad and it does the same thing but more often, Can somebody tell me if this is normal and if it isn't can I send it back and get a new one? And if I get a new one will it do the same thing? Thank you sooo much!

    If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in apps, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

  • What is the difference between Ipad 3rd Generation,Ipad 4th Generation and Ipad with retina display?

    Are they all the same things?Can you please tell me the differences and model numbers?

    While the 3rd generation iPad also has a Retina display, it was marketed as simply "The New iPad." The 4th generation is referred to by Apple is the "iPad with Retina display."
    The latest iPad features the new smaller Lightning connector, Apple A6X processor, support for 5GHz band Wi-Fi and expanded LTE coverage. Externally, you can tell them apart by the 30-pin connector versus the smaller Lightning connector.

  • 1st generation vs. 3rd generation Ipad and Cable TV Viewing app.

    I recently had the opportunity to borrow a 3rd generation ipad from work.  I brought it home and loaded the optimum online app. from my cable company that allows you to watch cable anywhere you are within range of your home WIFI supplied by them.
    I was really surprised when I was able to take the ipad out back to the furthest most point of our property, where a summer screen house is set up,
    and although the signal from my Netgear WNR834B v2 router was hovering around 1 or 2 signal strength on the iPad3, the quality of the TV signal being streamed did not waver at all.  The picture was absolutely pristine (after a few seconds) and there were absolutely no drop outs of the streaming video.  Again, THIS with absolute minimum signal strength.
    I had to return the device to work, but picked up a used 1st generation iPad on ebay, and loaded the same optimum online app. onto it.  On the 1st generation device, the signal was both visually fuzzier (at that furthest point in the backyard) and had freezes and breaks in the streaming video at that same furthest point outside at the edge of the property.  It works great inside near the router or in most points in the house and is pristine.
    My first question...did they updgrade some technology between the 1st and 3rd generation iPads that would account for the difference in the way the weak signal drops out on the 1st generartion device, but did not on the 3rd generation ipad?  Or could that be the app itself somehow making use of the upgraded technology between the two generation of devices?
    My second question....I'm trying to figure out how to boost and extend the WIFI signal to that furthest point in the backyard, which is several hundred feet away from the house.  An Airport Extreme doesn't seem to provide that distance level of extention, unless I bought two, but that would require one of them being outside to cover the distance I'm trying to get to.  I'm contemplating purchasing an Amped Wireless Repeater and range Extender that advertises 10,000 square feet extention, but the reviews on the device are mixed.
    Any input would be appreciated.

    The major difference between the two versions is that Generation 2 and higher products allow simultaneous dual band wireless operation.
    Your Time Capsule will produce either a 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz network, but not both simultaneously. Since you have iPhones connecting to the network, you are using the 2.4 GHz band.
    Most of your newer devices are capable of connecting at the much faster 5 GHz speeds, but if you set your current Time Capsule up to operate at 5 GHz, the iPhones and iPod will not be able to connect.
    A newer version Time Capsule produces both a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signal simultaneously, so faster devices would connect to the 5 GHz band and slower devices connect to the 2.4 GHz band.
    That being said, there is also something to be said for leaving well enough alone. Your call.

  • IOS 5 used to allow Airplay between iPad (WiFi) and Apple TV (Ethernet) as long as they were on the same network. In iOS 6, now both the iPad and the Apple TV have to be on the same network and both have to be connected using WiFi ? Why did they change ?

    iOS 5 used to allow Airplay between iPad (WiFi) and Apple TV (Ethernet) as long as they were on the same network, i.e. connected to the same wired/wireless router. In iOS 6, now both the iPad and the Apple TV have to be on the same network and both have to be connected using WiFi ? Why did they change this ? Means that the iPad and the Apple TV box both have to be in range of the wireless router when this wasn't a restriction before. Apple TV could be anywhere as long as it was connected to the same wireless router via ethernet cable. Seems like an unnecessary thing to restrict.

    I have found with AppleTV that it is the IPV6 on the computer you want to access is the problem.  The issue is that Homegroup on Win 7 or Win 8 requires IPV6 to work, but AppleTV won't work with IPV6.  (So maybe double check you have IPV6 turned off)
    So you have to make a choice - Homegroup or AppleTV.... but you can't have both, until Apple brings ATV up to date. (crazy that it does not recognise IPV6 - c'mon Apple!)
    You can set up sharing individually in Win 7 or 8 and have the ATV access files that way.
    Having said that, there is always the exception.. I have an old HP home server running Win8 and it services ATV - but is part of the Homegroup... have no idea why it works on both, but no other machine on the home network will talk to both ATV and Homegroup at the same time!

    Correct.  When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box.  This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing. 
    You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands.  It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
    10.6 software is not downloadable.  You must purchase a DVD disc.  You can order it from the on-line apple store
