Why is it so much for a new 8 gig touch and has only one camera lens-that is completely unfair, and a terrible tactic to play on people...

i dont understand why apple is charging so much more for the new ipod touch 5 , 8 gig with just one camera lens on it....its highway robbery...not only that every store that is close by to me are sold out of the 8 gig they also tried to rope me into the more exspensive ones...shame on you apple for doing this...it cost you pennies to make these items and you cant help the little guy out by making it more affordable for a struggling single mother of two try to make this year better...i am ashamed of you and that your products are going down hill since the passing of the master mind...i will no long be purchasing your products and will be trading the other products i have so i can give my children a good christmas...thanks....

sorry yes i ment 16g   it still don't make any sence on why they choose to place a front camera on the 16g and not one on the back as well....NOT EVERYONE takes selfies... thank you for the comparision info...but apple is falling short, they charge way to much money for this item...thanks for the respond...

  • The 16G IPOD catalog entry should have in bold THIS THING HAS ONLY ONE CAMERA.  I bought one for my dad thinking it was same as the last one i bought.  my fault, but also theirs.

    I just ordered a new 16G iPod touch for my dad.  the bigger models said they had an hd camera, so i assumed this one did not BUT AT LEAST HAD A REAR FACING CAMERA.
    So it arrives and he says it only has one camera and I say of course it has two cameras.
    it turns out just a front-facing camera (so i guess thats what Facetime camera meant).
    so now he wants to return it
    be careful ordering. my fault, but also theirs.  it's like selling a car without a windshield.  their should be a giant sign that says, this thing has only one windshield

    Disagree for three reasons:
    1) this is a KEY feature that was removed from prior models.  removing something that cutomers depend upon requires more than burying in a cryptic spec.
    2) even spec does not use clear generic terms like "front-facing camera" "rear-facing camera" or "has one camera" - instead it used Apple-terms like Facetime camera and isite camera, which on a casual glance appears like just upgrade/downgrade camera version.  16g model says facetime camera, and cell next to it it says isite camera (instead of also showing both models have facetime camera on the same row) and that's not a proper comparison grid, comparing  apples to apples, so to speak...
    3) you presume every person that orders finds this page (which i contend is not clear).  i don't want to spend an hour learning what apple-jargon translates to "this model has only  one camera"
    No reply needed.  Just posting for awareness.  I am guessing there will be more dissatisfaction and returns for this product, so just giving you feedback.

  • Ok, so basically my charger fell apart on my MacBook pro(2010) and I didn't have the money for a new charger, I got it in the states too if that's relevant. Basically my laptop will not charge, I bought a new charger yesterday and it's still no-use

    Ok, so basically my charger fell apart on my MacBook pro(2010) and I didn't have the money for a new charger, I got it in the states too if that's relevant. Basically my laptop will not charge, I bought a new charger yesterday and it's still no-use,not charging . No green or orange light coming on on the new charger either.

    It is one of the items that Apple gets criticized at regular intervals. The MagSafe connector is proprietary and unlicensable, so the company has a lock-in on the power options. And as you have now found out, your hijinks trying to avoid buying an expensive new charger may have caused more damage and led to a total no-charge condition.
    If lucky and no physical damage has occurred (there IS a fuse in there somewhere on the circuit boards), maybe resetting the SMC can restore charge functionality, provided there is still enough juice: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Yes - well you have to make the file in a word processing Application.
    You could use TextEdit (it's free) Pages (words only), or Numbers (data base) (they are part of iWorks - and may or may not be free (included) on your machine.  You could use MS Office (it is not free) You could use any Open source word processor that plays well with Office (NeoOffice, StarOffice) they are free.
    That's how you create content and copy/paste URLS. Then you save the file to the desktop. If you are going to make more than one file... you make a folder on the desktop and save, or drag the file(s) into it.
    You attach it to your e-mail client which will compress it and e-mail it. An excellent reference is to use Help, from the menu bar, also from inside any application. From your library or book store the OS X for Dummies has a lot of useful information (you don't read it cover to cover but look up chapters about what you'd like to do)
    You can also make appointments at your local Apple store for individualized help (if a store is nearby)

  • Why is there a charge for apps on the mac laptops and computers

    Why is there a charge for apps on the Mac laptops and computers and not on the Ipad or Iphone? And the same apps are cheaper on my Nook?

    Kind of unfair. I get the cheapest ones on my Nook and all my friends that have Iphones and Ipads are free.
    Thankyou for answering me though

  • I am new to IPod touch and really enjoying it.  BUT.  All of a sudden I am unable to connect to my home wireless network nor any hot spots.  Did not have any trouble in 1st month and yet something seems to have changed.  Any suggestions as to what ?

    I am new to IPod Touch and enjoying but all of a sudden (after about a month of connection) I am unable to connect to either my home wirless or hotspots outside of home.  It would appear that a setting has changed but have no idea how to determine.  Any suggestions ?

    NO I did not and thank you very much for the advice.  My problem was stated incorrectly in that while I am able to connect to the wireless from that point on I am unable to connect to the internet.  I will check the article referred to.

  • I added a new post to my iTunes U course and it is not showing up on one of my student's iPads.  She has only one Apple ID on the iPad. Any assistance is appreciated.

    A new post to my iTunes U course shows up in my course both on my Mac and my iPad Air, as well as on other students' iPads, but for one single student.  We have closed the app and forced shutdown.  Student recently added more icloud space, but that is all.  iPad is up-to-date in terms of iOS and iTunesU app.  The student has only one Apple ID associated with her iPad.
    We have reposted two more times.  The second time the post showed up for a few seconds, but then disappeared.  It does not show up under any other section (assignments, discussions, etc).  Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Have you contacted Apple support?
    I don't know if these will work, but you could have the student try the following:
    logout of his or her iTunes U (i.e., iTunes Store) account using Settings
    force-quit iTunes U
    relaunch iTunes U
    sign in to the newly launched app when prompted
    I hope that helps!

  • My TV has only 2 HDMI conections that are all ready in use for Directv and the Blueray. Can I use composed cables to conect Apple TV

    My TV has only 2 HDMI conections that are all ready in use for Directv and the Blueray. Can I use composed cables to conect Apple TV

    I'm going to take a guess and say that if your TV has 2 HDMI ports, it also has a component input (5 wire).   I'm also going to guess that either your DirecTv or your Blueray has a component output option.  If I had this setup, I would put my DTV on the component option and use the open HDMI port for the ATV2.
    I doubt you will be able to tell the difference on your DTV.  Most of the stores that demo HD use component wiring on their store models.  The only downside is that you may be giving up the highest sound (Dobly 5.1 or whatever they call it.) 
    Or you could just go to switching the HDMI cords from your BluRay to the ATV2 depending on which one you are watching.  I think I use my BluRay about 5% or less of my viewing time.  If I "tossed", I wouldn't shed a tear.

  • Thank you SOOOO much for the new update!

    I was so delighted, after waiting the 20 minutes for your latest OS X 10.6.8.whatever Snow Leopard to load itself, restart itself, and load itself again, that I actually hugged myself with joy; but nothing could have exceeded the sheer ecstasy of discovering that -- once again -- Apple has MORE than met the usual expectations with whatever the update has done to iTunes, and even to apps -- Firefox, Photoshop, and Photoshop Elements, just as minor examples -- that have nothing whatsoever to do with Apple! THAT'S what I call attention to users' wants!
    This afternoon, I downloaded several gigabytes of public domain music from the State of Florida's Folklore site (I'd give you the URL, but somehow, in Apple's technical excellence, the new OS X 10.6.x update blew every bit of history up until the past 5 minutes, all cookies, and, MOST welcome of all, EVERY STORED PASSWORD for the hundreds of password-protected sites, forums, and wonderful discussion groups -- including this one --  I've ever belonged to right out of Firefox 5.0.1! Who knew Apple would be so thoughtful as to NOT merely  CLEAN, but annhilate, Firefox's cache & cookies, whether I wanted it to or not? What a bunch of swell engineers and forward thinkers!)
    But I digress... back to iTunes. After I DL'd all that great stuff from the Florida Folklore site, I copied it all into iTunes, and made nice playlists for everything I got, all neat and organized so if I wanted to listen to the Georgia Sea Island Singers, or, say, Doc Watson, or Bill Monroe, all I had to do was go to the rock-solid iTunes playlists. And yes, I closed iTunes and reopened it just to make sure the playlists were there and had the right music in it, because... well, once in a millenium or so, an iTunes update does funny things to your iTunes catalog. You know: it doesn't feel... well, fresh, if you catch my meaning. Everything was fine and life was good. So I closed iTunes again, full of hope and butterflies and rainbows and good thoughts and stuff like that.
    I came back to my Mac this evening and discovered that software update had new and greater marvels for me, in the form of 7 new updates. "SEVEN!" I thought, this has gotta be great, like maybe FINALLY support for 1080p through the now 3+ year-old MiniDisplayPort's input.
    That stuff's chump change. Apple's no piker! I could never have even dreamed that an Apple Update would do so many things to so many apps, so completely and irreversibly -- not only blow out all the bookmark history and passwords from Firefox, but strip out every single new playlist I made this morning on iTunes, and hide EVERYTHING I'd added to iTunes in the last three months so that the Music Library couldn't find it! I was awestruck! But my joy would soon be lifted to an even higher plane!
    Not only did the System Update strip iTunes of every new playlist I created this morning, it simplified iTunes EVEN MORE for me, by moving every single music file I'd added since June 7, 2011, to places where iTunes can't SEE them, and they don't clutter up the main Music Library window in iTunes anymore. Is that GREAT or what? Now I get to manually replace several hundred music files, and therefore save myself from the tedium of actually getting WORK done. It's like an iTunes Boot Camp Vacation! Just as a for-instance, here's how the new OS update logically placed some of the files I had taken such care to make sure were available in iTunes, both in their playlists, and in the Music Library:
    None  of the songs from "Shall We Gather at The River" or "Florida Folklife Collection" show up in my Music Library now, by golly, so I don't have to waste my time listening to music I worked for a considerable time to get all safely tucked away in the glory that is iTunes. Ahhh, who needs music anyway?
    BUT, being a "I love surprises" kinda guy, I've saved the BEST for LAST (also because I just found it out, when I tried to re-save these TIFF screen shots by taking them (first try) into PhotoshopCS and (second try) taking them into Photoshop Elements, which I keep as a quick & dirty backup app for just such purposes. Imagine my utter SPASMS of delight when BOTH Adobe products -- long-since bought and exorbitant-license-paid-for -- told me (A -- Photoshop): "You're missing a critical component and Adobe Photoshop can't open these files," then (B -- PS Elements): "Your license has expired for this product; you must procure a new license from Adobe Products)! BZZZZTTT! Wrong, I'm running valid retail licenses for both products -- or I WAS until the latest OS Update came along and blew my licenses out the back door. And who KNOWS about the hundreds of other apps and utilities I've paid tens of thousands of dollars over the years for? Have Apple's Update Engineering Wizards made THEM essentially non-functional, too? It's 1AM, and a little too late to explore. I can't WAIT to get on the phone to Apple Care and ask them to congratulate the engineers of this latest and -- so-far -- most spectacular update!
    EXCELLENT JOB, DUDES! MY CUP RUNNETH OVER!
    Message was edited by: Bartbrn: Had to edit a few mistakes -- I didn't want my post to reflect anything LESS than Apple's own excellence in software engineering.

    Sorry, but I have no idea what it is you're referring to. You seem to be picking up a conversation in the middle, perhaps something you've been communicating with the iTunes Store about. None of us here work for Apple nor are able to know what you and the iTunes Store have said to each other, so you will need to explain in more detail your issue and what you wish us, your fellow users, to help you with.
    Regards.

  • HT5070 Downloaded an epidose of Glee.  Trying to open it for viewing causes iTunes to crash. Why? Thanks very much for any assistance.

    Downloaded last weeks episode of GLEE.  When it was finished, I checked the "Season Pass HD" radio button to see if what I had downloaded was in HD (which I wanted), vice SD.  I saw that what I had was indeed HD, and at the box prompt I "x'd" out of it instead of completing the box - which would have caused me to pay for the season...which I do not want at this time.
    I cannot open the episode.  Trying causes iTunes to crash.
    Any ideas why?

  • Why am I being charged for data when connected to wifi AND not using my phone?!

    WHY am I being charged for data that I'm not using? At times when I'm asleep AND my phone is connected to wifi?!  This happens at really specific, alternating times like 9:54 pm every day, or 12:01 am, 6:01 am and then 12:01pm and 6:01pm. When I called I was told  "maybe your wifi at home is disconnecting" or "maybe your phone is connecting to atnt or sprint". It's not possible that my phone is disconnecting from wifi every six hours on the dot and, at that exact time, I'm always using data. I find it hard to believe that I live in a HUGE city and my phone magically connects to other networks and I NEVER notice this. Verizon is full of LIARS (and maybe’s) and I'm not convinced that these data charges are a coincidence. I was told to turn off my cellular data to see if the problem resolves itself. Why should I alter my daily life when Verizon is clearly the one with the issue? I hope there's a class action lawsuit because Verizon is trying to get over on everyone! I need answers!

        Hello NotHappy101,
    I think it's quite odd that your data usage is at very specific times. We can certainly take a closer look. Please reply to my Direct Message, so we can get some additional details.
    Thanks,

  • Why am I billed $75 for using 250 minutes, no data and unlimited texts? Isn't that a bit high? Can I refuse to pay this bill because it is outrageous?

    Who can I complain to about being billed way too much for way too little?

    I don't know, can your employer refuse to pay you because they think you are paid too much and work too little??? Yes of course you can refuse to pay your bill, your service will be suspended, your account will go to collections and your credit rating will take a hit.
    Good luck with the next provider. Unfortunately because of your unpaid bill at Verizon you may be forced to supply a security deposit.

  • New White Ipod touch. Went to add music & about half show up on my ipod but cannot be played

    Just got the new, most recent white ipod in the mail.  Followed directions, plugged into itunes and transferred songs. For some reason, when I unplugged and went to go listen to music, about half of the songs are showing up on my ipod but in a light grey and they cannot be clicked on or listened to...? I tried to re-transfer everything and still no luck.  Any ideas what this could be?

    This sometimes happens with ios5 (at least from my experience from beta)   The sync "finishes", but you must keep the ipod plugged in to get all of the songs.... (you can still use it while it's transferring though).
    Anyway, hope this helps.
