Why is the Application Tab so different from the rest of iTune?

It feels like the Applications tab is not from Apple. Is it done by a outsourcing company in China? There is no consistency between this tab with the rest of iTune. Is there a design theme across all parts of iTune? Why there is no list view for the Apps?
One thing I miss much is the ability to check off an App so that it will not sync to my iPhone. The same way that I can decide with song go to my iPod. Since the iPhone only has 144 slot for applications, it is important to have such selection ability. The other thing I miss is the rating. I'd like to rate the applications so that if I have purchased more than one version of the same kind of app, I can choose which goes to my iPhone based on my own rating. I also want to be able to sort the Apps by category in the list view. How about folders that each corresponds to one page on the iPhone? The way to reorganize the Apps icons is just a pain after you have more than a few pages.

Hi LaiPod
These are good suggestions, I suggest sending feedback to apple via: http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

So it looks like my Photostream is hosting the spam and I cant get rid of it. I'm too scared to go to icloud and advanced setting reset my photostream as I am scared of losing my family photos.

  • Why would my Acrobat tab keep disappearing from my Office programs?

    Every so often, my Acrobat tab keeps disappearing from my Office programs.  It seems totally random, but happens when I am actually using the tool to convert a word doc or excel spreadsheet to PDF.  I am using Office 2007 Professional and Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. 
    I have no problems getting the Acrobat tab back by doing the following:
    1. Close the affected Office program (ie Word, Excel etc)
    2. Reopen the affected Office program as Administrator.
    3. Go into Options >Add-Ins> COM addins and delete the existing Acrobat PDFMaker COM Addin.
    4. Click OKs and close the program.
    5. Reopen as Administrator and go back to  Options >Add-Ins> COM addins and Add Acrobat PDFMaker COM Addin. 
    (The add in for me is stored at C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\PDFMaker\Office and select the PDFMOfficeAddin.dll file. )
    Once I add it back this way, it stays for sometimes up to 2 months, but then disappears again.  I've had this happen in Word and Excel.
    So getting it back is not an issue, but knowing what it happens in the first place and stopping that occurrence would be even better.
    Any help with be awesome.
    Thank you

    Yeah.. I just noticed I was missing stuff last week, and then realized that my Apple TV was not showing up in my iTunes device list. I'm just hoping that the silence on this issue from Apple is a sign that they are getting ready to push out an update to correct either itunes or Apple TV. I've read lots of complaints, and just a few remedies. I've tried the remedies (including the one on the Apple TV support site) and none of them work for me. I have noticed one thing that that I wanted to try. In iTunes->Preferences->Apple TV I have an Apple TV in the "Apple TV's connected to iTunes" window, that shows a status of syncing. Since I don't have an Apple TV in the device list, and my Apple TV was reset days ago so it is giving me the code to enter into iTunes, can I assume that this item can and should be deleted. I don't think this is going to solve my problem, but it looks like a good next step. Any suggestions?

  • Why is the text on itunes squashed and compacted?

    For some reason, all of the text on itunes is very small and overlap each other. Not sure why this happens but it is very annoying and blocks some of the features. The picture is an example of what I mean.

    Another example from the Stairlifts.html page where <b>&lt;font&gt;&lt;u&gt;....&lt;font&gt;&lt;u&gt;</b> appears and even if corrected wouldn't be closed in the correct order.
    <pre><nowiki><div id="Grtf338" class="dfltc">
    <center><h1><font color="991c1d" size="5" face="arial black"><u>BRUNO STAIRLIFTS<font><u></h1>
    </div>
    </nowiki></pre>
    This should be with the second <b>&lt;font&gt;&lt;u&gt;</b> changed to <b>&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/font&gt;</b>
    <pre><nowiki>
    <div id="Grtf338" class="dfltc">
    <center><h1><font color="991c1d" size="5" face="arial black"><u>BRUNO STAIRLIFTS</u></font></h1>
    </div>
    </nowiki></pre>
    Also note that font-family: "Arial Black" may require font-weight:900 to work properly in some cases

  • Why can't I create a ringtone from my music on iTunes?

    I have just been looking at the instructions for making a 30 second ring tone from my music collection. The option doesn't seem available to me and the advice states
    'Ringtones are only available for purchase from the U.S. iTunes Store.'
    So if I'm based in the Uk how can I do this?
    Thanks
    Message was edited by: MerlinUK

    Creating a ringtone is very easy using iTunes 8.x.
    It has to be a non-drm song though.
    1) In iTunes click the song you want to make a ring tone from.
    2) Then in iTunes, go to File -->Get Info.
    3) In that now open screen go to Options. In that window, define the Start Time and the End Time by entering both in the boxes (that should automatically check the check box as well). Click OK.
    4) Go to Advanced -->Create AAC Version. That will then create a duplicate version of the song, but it will only be of the length you set in Step 3.
    5) Highlight that song title, then drag it do your desktop.
    6) Edit the song title file extension to change the last letter to "r". You'll be prompted for the "Are you sure...." check, select OK.
    7) IMPORTANT -- now with the duplicated song highlighted in your iTunes, go to Edit -->Delete to remove that short version. You MUST do this or iTunes will not let you add the ring tone you placed on your desktop to your library.
    8) Drag from the desktop your ringtone to iTunes Library (left hand in frame menu). That will add it to your Ring Tones library (and/or create a Ring Tones tab if for some reason you didn't already have one).
    9) Sync your iPhone as usual, ensuring in your synch preferences you have authorized the synching of ring tones.
    10) IMPORTANT -- now go back to the original song track, go back to File -->Get Info and ensure that you deselect the two boxes checked in Step 3 (else you'll limit your next play of this track to 15 or 30 or whatever seconds!).
    That's all there is to it! It is very easy to do and once you've done it a couple of times you'll be creating a ring tone in about 30 seconds.

  • Why is the management of iTunes on the iPhone so coarse and unforgivably hard to navigate?

    Am I alone here? Why is it so difficult for me to manage what files I want to be immediately accessible on my phone, while the rest remain safely on my computer. Why can I not connect my phone to my computer without an immediate syncing of both devices withouut wasting both my time and space on my phone? Also, am I missing a way to easily remove large amounts of music files from my iPhone (at least by album) without going on a file by file basis?

    If you don't want automatic syncing when you connect you can disable that in the iTunes Preferences

  • Why is the volume for iTunes occasionally lowering?

    I notice that iTunes' volume seems to lower itself.
    It will happen randomly and then I have to open up the volume mixer and bring iTunes' volume back up.
    What is causing this?  At first I thought it was when I was plugging in USB devices because that's when it seems to happen most of the time... but there are occasions where it does it on its own for no reason that I can think of.  Today alone I had to bring the volume back up maybe 5 times while listening to some music during cleaning.
    All other audio on my PC seems to work fine...
    Any one else experience this?

    First check and make sure the volume in iTunes is up. At the top of iTunes where you see the play button, to the side of that is a slider bar, this is the volume make sure its slided all the way to the right. Next check your EQ setting. in the lower right corner of iTunes look for the lil button with the vertical slider bars, hit it and it will open the EQ setting, by default its on "Flat" you can change it to Rock,Dance, ect ect whichever sounds best to you while playing a song

  • Why are printer managed color prints different from Photoshop managed color prints using the same color profile?.

    I'm using Photoshop 13.0.1, Windows 7, to print images using custom color profiles made with an XRite colorimeter.  However, when I print the image using Printer Manages Color, it is not the same as Photoshop Manages the colors and selecting the Canon ICC profile that (Canon 7200 MP2) that is the same as the printer managed settings.  Why are these prints not the same if the same color profile is being accessed??

    Hi WA Veghe,
    >First: DO synchronize, makes sure you have the same profile settings and color mange settings.
    I don't seem to be able to synchronize between CS4 (Photoshop) and CS3 (Indesign).
    It seems I have to do without synchronizing..
    >I do not seem to find HOW you are diplaying images on you screen: with Soft proofing?
    What happens if you soft proof in Photoshop and InDesign on screen: View > Proof colors. Do you proof with the same profiles, both simulate paper and black on?
    I can simulate Proof Colors (working CMYK), but not simulate Paper, both in Indesign and Photoshop.
    Problem is: SAME settings in Photoshop and Indesign BUT the image displayed in Photoshop is brighter and more saturated.
    So which image should I correct after?
    thanks for all help

  • Why is my DW layout looking different from the browsers?  So confused...

    Hi guys,
    I've been successfully struggling through my first attempt at building a website using Fireworks and DW CS4.  What has been puzzling me is that how the site looks in DW is not how it looks in my browser.  Oddly enough, all the browsers are displaying exactly what I want (so far), but in the DW layout, some of my images are overlapping.  It's as if I have to get them almost on top of each other just so they can appear close together in browsers.
    This is making it somewhat tough to add my hyperlinks to images that are underneath the other ones and I am worried that I am doing something wrong.  I posted pictures of both the DW layout and what is showing up in the browsers I have checked (Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer all look the same).  Note:  The first pic on top is displaying in Firefox, the second pic beneath in the layout in DW.
    Thanks a million in advance

    #1 Design View is the result of your underlying HTML & CSS code.  At best it's an approximation of what you can expect to see in browsers.  For best results, work in Split View or Code View.  Use Live View & Preview in browsers to test your layout.
    #2 DW is not click & drag like your graphics apps.  If you're trying to work this way, you'll have poor results.
    #3 Fireworks is great for creating web images & comps.  It's not so great at generating HTML code. Use DW to build your page layout.  If you're new to web design, it's much easier to start projects with a pre-built CSS Layout.  See DW Starter Pages below.

  • 2.0 Tabs Behave Differently from 1.6 Tabs

    I exported and imported my primary application from our HTMLDB 1.6 server to our HTMLDB 2.0 server. Now the application looks ugly, because the text on my tabs drop down...
    to the second line when the width of the browser window is less than the width of the application
    My thoughts are that the HTMLDB 1.6 code used absolute dimensions to create the page, using a table having a width based on the number of pixels, say 800 for instance. Now, with HTMLDB 2.0 code, the page behaves like its a table with a width based on percentage, with relative dimensions, such as 100%.
    This may not make a difference with applications with a small number of tabs, or with a large number of small width tabs. But on mine... see below.
    I have some images that illustrate this:
    HMTMDB 1.6 nicely formatted page,
    http://www.utpa.edu/itis/images/htmldb%201.6.jpg
    HMTMDB 2.0 squashed tabs, not very appealing page,
    http://www.utpa.edu/itis/images/htmldb%202.0.jpg
    Does anyone else have this concern?
    Can the developer have a choice of absolute or relative page setup?
    Thanks for your time,
    RussDove

    Hello,
    Can the developer have a choice of absolute or relative page setup?You have full control of that using your page templates.
    You'll be able to fix that in your page template or css. Your running a very customized page template and I'm actually suprised that anything between 1.6 or 2.0 would have caused that to change but it looks like you found something.
    Try this add nowrap="nowrap" or style="white-space:nowrap" to the <td> cells of the tabs.
