Why is the selection in Ireland so bad for the iBookstore!?

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this question but i'm just really piXXed off because all we have on the irish iBookstore is books by Project Gutenberg which are just TERRIBLE. we have no books from good authors. We only have free books. I want to buy good books on the iBookstore and the only way i can do that is by setting up an english apple account which i think is unesscary. When is Ireland getting good books!?

There are other ways of getting books onto your iPhone, though I'm not sure if we're allowed to talk about them. I have 3 seperate books apps on my iPhone, two tied to particular stores, one which will read more or less anything DRM free. Two of the three also have desktop apps, which allows me to import books from other places and sync using file sharing in iTunes.
Try Stanza and Kindle.

Why is the Hulu Plus interface so bad?

Why is the Hulu Plus interface so bad? The Hulu Plus interface that is presented on my Sony Blue Ray player (BDPS1500) is very difficult to access my Queue to play the shows I always watch. When you access Hulu Plus it should immediately display “Your Queue” as the highlighted default selection – that way I can click the SELECT button once and then see the list of programs in my queue with the most recent program that I watched highlighted – so I can then click SELECT a 2nd time and now I am looking at the episodes of the program series I watched last with the next episode highlighted so if I press SELECT a 3rd time I will be watching the next episode in the series. The way it is now I have to click all over the place trying to locate My Queue – as it is NOT visible when Hulu Plus initializes. And when I do finally find my queue and select it, the last program I watched is not the default highlighted item. After probably 15 or more clicks up, down, left, and right I finally get to the next episode. This should be an easy change and one that would greatly improve the user experience.

The trick is to go do this:
1) go to http://www.adobe.com
2) At the top in the menu bar look for: Products (this is the first item in the Menu bar;
3) When you click on it, you will get a list of "Top Destination"
4) In this list, Photoshop is listed as a special item because of its popularity;
5) Click on it and you will get this:

Hope this helps.

WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization?

WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files and/or documents in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization? Even after I numbered the documents/folders to keep them in my preferred order, it will still displace them occasionally. This is becoming increasingly frustrating!
Is this a "Pages" issue or "FInder"? The vast majority of documents I use are in Pages, but there are also Numbers, PDFs, jpegs and a few other applications involved. This never happened before I upgraded to Mountain Lion; in Tiger, the documents (mostly Appleworks) and files stayed where I wanted them to be.
I am visually oriented, and prefer to arrange items in a folder in an order that makes them easier for me to access, which is often NOT alphabetical.
Can anyone suggest a solution? Please??
Thank you.
Sara

nbar,
Thank you for your reply.
However, I do not understand what you mean by "user account." I am the only user, and can find no options for "user" or "guest." The parental controls have always been off, as there are no other people who have access to my computer.
Frank,
Thank you for your reply.
All my documents, files and folders are in icon view, Arranged By: none in both view and view options. This arbitrary rearranging does not happen all the time, only when I make a substantial change to one of the documents in the file or folder. I'm not sure what you mean by "column heading."
MichaelLAX,
Thank you for your reply.
I know, to my sorrow, that Appleworks does not work with Mountain Lion. I spent at least three months converting approximately 2,000 Appleworks documents to Pages, Numbers, Bento (for databases) and Touchdraw (for drawings). So this is not the problem; but as I said, I did not have this rearranging problem with Appleworks - the icons stayed where I wanted them to be. I still miss the ease and reliability of Appleworks, darn it!
Frank,
Thank you for your second reply.
I do have the Sort By: in view options as well as in view set to "none." The finder still insists on rearranging, but only when I have made a substantial change to a document in that file or folder.
Any futher thoughts?
xdab,
Thank you for your reply.
"Are you are using icon view, but for some reason the finder moves files around? is that the problem?"
YES!! This is exactly the problem.
"If this operation is successful then erase the original and rename the new one to the name originally chosen by the user."
This seems like a lot of trouble, especially as I often work on several documents at the same time.
"By the way, the finder has a "clean up by" menu that rearranges icons in one of the standard orders, there are shortcuts that produce the same effect, for example <option><cmd>1 sorts them by name. Is it possible that this shortcut was typed by mistake without you noticing?"
I do know about this "clean up by" option, and avoid it like the plague! So I doubt this is the issue, and I infrequently use keyboard shortcuts like this anyway.
Thanks all who replied. None of the suggestions seem to work, however. Any others out there?
Regards,
Sara

Why is the iPhone so BAD at connecting back to mobile networks?

Reading various threads it would seem that Apple gave up sometime ago making a device that actually works well at mobile connectivity. Their antennae technology must be as out of date as their map data or as poorly tested.
Quite often I come out of the tube or a lift and have "no service". This I accept but it seems to take a lifetime for the phone to realise a signal is available. It could be down to mobile mast registration so is really a network issue but a 4 year old bog standard Nokia phone seems to cope ok getting a signal at places an iPhone can only dream of and shows the fact that it has a signal in a heart beat.
A fix I have found is to make a call. If no signal is available then rightly this will not work but if the iPhone is just being as intelligent as a household brick this seems to do the trick triggering mobile mast registration or the phone to wake up and hey presto i have 3 bars of connectivity increasing to 5 as i get more into the open. However, this does not seem to work just by triggering a data request, you just get the "no Internet" available warning.
So either calls register the device quicker which would make some sense as they can use GSM or the device always tries to make a call triggering a search but if no service is recorded never tries to search so it can send data.
Regardless of which, why is the phone so BAD at detecting and registering with networks after all this is the raison d'être of a mobile device.
Do we ever think the Apple will stop for a moment adding meaningly upgrades and examine this boring but fundamental requirement?

We would be grateful if you could point out any errors in the list, but we do check.
The list does not claim features moved to the System are "missing". There are separate lists of added and changed features.
There are many people who claim to know what they are talking about but on closer examination it becomes clear they really do not know much about iWork, nor about the features they claim to have "found" in Pages 5.
I would be hesitant to claim that you were part of the beta testing of Pages 5 for 2 reasons.
1. Apple does ask you to sign a non-disclosure agreement
2. You then are part of the problem
Maybe, now you have disclosed that you were testing, you can explain how on Earth something so bad was released on an unsuspecting public, with no warning of what Apple had done and that it would alter/damage users' work.

When I select text, system wide, and delete it, why is the succeeding text then selected?

When I select text, system wide, and delete it, why is the succeeding text then selected?
This doesn't happen all the time, but it's happened enough for me to notice it and get super annoyed by it.
Here's an example. If I have the following text:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
And I highlight quick brown and then press delete, I get: (The red shows the selected text)
The fox jumps over the lazy dog.
So when I then start typing, more text is removed than I want. Sometimes this effect carries over, so that the next couple words are selected once I start typing.
It's wonderfully annoying. So I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing such issues or if anyone might have an idea on how to get rid of this problem.
Thanks.

Ooops. I haven't updated my sig in a while. I'm on 10.8.2 and it happens on a late 2008 Alu Macbook.

Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

Why is the new mapping so bad?

Why is he new mapping system so bad and when will it be fixed?

Apple is constantly working on improving their new Maps service, but until it reaches the level of finesse necessary to be usable, take a look at some alternatives.
Bing Maps offers a very good maps service with Bird's Eye, a feature similar to Flyover. It's arguably better than Google Maps.

You can use Google Maps by creating a shortcut to the Home Screen with help from the article below.

Why is the support so bad and expensive?

Putting in my serial number of a product that is now useless tells me I'm not covered by the support so I have to pay £25 to have someone call me.
When I put in all my details so I can phone Apple myself I then get given a premium rate number to phone and when I get through I start getting asked the same questiuons I answered online ( to get my case number ) so the call is going to end up costing more than it should. The case number is supposed to make the call quicker.
Why is help so expensive here?
Why can't I just email support?

John Galt, the poster already did that as he said in this discussion. He said:
I'm sure with the millions of dollars Apple make every day they can pay staff for support. Instead of that they create a forum where people can do their work for them for free.
I've posted details about my problem herehttps://discussions.apple.com/message/25581520#25581520

Within Music Library can anyone please explain why when I select the option to sort 'Album by Artist' a number of tracks are being treated as separate albums? How can I correct this? I have tried to 'drag and drop' but that doesn't work.

Within music Library can anyone please explain why after I select the option to sort 'Album by Artist' a number of tracks are being treated as separate albums? How can I fix this? I have tried to manually correct by 'drag and drop' individual tracks but that doesn't work. My music library includes a number of repeat album artwork images simply because not all tracks are being listed under the one album making my library more difficult to use than it should. Any advise would be appreciated.
