Why is there no FLAC support in iTunes?

Why is there no support for flac in quicktime/iTunes ? It is a major mistake as you are leaving many of us tape traders/ OCD music collectors out in the cold. As "serious" as Apple is at supporting us professional users with wonderful programs like Logic, Final Cut and Aperture, you forget that we use iTunes too. SUPPORT FLAC!
-Josh

Sorry, but we're all just your fellow users here, so none of us have any insight into why Apple includes or leaves out any given feature. If you want to make a suggestion to Apple, the best place (since there's currently no feedback page for the iTunes application) would be through the Mac OS X feedback page.

  • Why are there limited view movies on iTunes Store

    Why are there limited view movies on iTunes Store?
    Hi, I want to rent a movie from my iTunes Store on my Apple TV
    The movie called "friends with benefits"
    And more movies and it's write to me on the top in the right size "limited"
    Why??
    My age is 23 and all the deitals are true and ok
    What I need to do???

    Right now, you can only get movies and tv shows if you are in the U.S. or you have a bank account and address in the U.S. Or if you get a gift certificate that is from the U.S. you can access it that way. But if you use an out of the country bank, address or buy a non us gift certificate you are out of luck. What I mean by U.S. gift certificate is one that is purchased in the U.S. or over the net with a U.S. credit card drawn on a U.S. bank. Hope this helps, and sorry. I am an American as well and live in Mexico, and took me awhile to figure it out.

  • Why is there not applescript support in iWork '13?

    I have workflows that used to interface with iWork documents through applescript and now there is no support. Why would this be done? Is there a new script for iWork to get these working again. Without outside interface iWork is useless to me.

    Until Apple adds it back, you can use Pages 4.  It should still be on your machine in Applications/iWork.

  • WHY IS THERE NO DIRECT SUPPORT FROM APPLE

    It is so hard to know if the support from the Apple support community is legit when one is not tech savvy we have members calling each other names, lingo that I don't undertsand and the last time I tried some advice I buggered up my whole system!!
    My issues with search for emails on me.com or it simply cant be done ... I don't see why its so hard. I joined mobile me as internet had issues in China for gmail.
    Now its a nightmare and Apple is doing nothing about it. I don't even know who to ask about getting out of icloud mail or reroute all me emails back to gmail now that I have a VPN.
    I looked at the related forums and there is never a clear cut answer helllllpppp!!

    If you want support from Apple you need to contact them by phone or visit a store.
    If you are still under warranty, that would be the best thing to do anyway.
    There are no Apple techs here on these forums. Apart from the hosts who manage the site, all the people posting here are volunteers; users, the same as you.
    The quality of the advice varies, and considering it costs nothing, I'd argue it is good value, but one should be prudent and not believe everything that is said, though you could also apply the same to life in general.
    This site is more extensive than many realize and finding the right place to post your problem can help enormously, as people tend to hang in the forums that they know most about.

  • Why is there no eprint support for open document formats, such as those produced by openoffice

    Why doesn't the eprint service support open document formats? This should be a minimal requirement!

    Sorry, as important as this issue is to all of us who use Firefox, this is a Firefox support forum - not an appropriate place to start a discussion like this.
    I'm locking this thread for two other reasons though. <br />

  • Why is there only proper support for professional users

    1. I have 4 HP printers, 1 wireless and 1 wired at home and 2 wired at my office.
    Wheneven I want to switch between my office printers and  my home printers I have to reinstall the entire HPL Solution Center to get my wireless printer to work because HP Solution Center only knows USB and wired. {content removed} is this an idea to sell more printers.
    I've placed this question on the board several times without any response and now I'm sick of it. (content removed) as a developer myself I know this can't take more than 3 days to rewrite since all components are proprely named. At least I hope your developers are at least that smart.
    I'm tired of reinstalling you software every time I switch printers. {content removed}
    2. why is commercial support only done by communities and you need to pay to get some real support? is it because you only care about your paycheck {content removed}

  • Why is there no official support from apple to use an iPad as second display for mac/PC?

    I know there are one or two apps for that but they work over a wifi network, which is very laggy. I feel like an official solution would work ten times better, especially if apple'd be willing to construct a new port on the iPad to make it wired. This will eliminate lag and power issues.
    I personally love the ipad, but it has literally zero added value to my life. If this particular option becomes available though, I'll buy an iPad that same day.

    Send your suggestion to Apple.

    I have a hard time understanding why I can't contact support about THEIR problem. I plugged my iPhone into my pc. iTunes came up. It said there was an update available for the phone. I accepted that. Clicked on the "download only" because I didn't have the time to install it at that point. It downloaded but didn't stop. It continued to the 'backing up your iPhone' segment then froze. I waited at least an hour with no change. Finally I unplugged my phone..iTunes wasn't responding.I rebooted my pc then tried the same thing again. Same outcome even though I let it "Back Up" for 7-8 hrs while I slept. Same Story...............         iTunes 10.4.0.80 is the software I'm using. When my phone is 'plugged' in what I see on it's face is "Sync in Progress".....for hours!

  • I was trying to log in using my credit card, and was unable to. However when I checked my checking account i seen there was 4 charges from itunes. But, i was never able to sign in. I would appreciate a PERSON contact me to explain why this happened.

    Hello,
         Last night my daughter was trying to log in to take care or some apps she has. While she was doing so, she got a message that said credit card was declined. Three time that popped up on her. then I tired with my credit card, and the same thing happened. So I left it and tired calling. But do you think there could be a person to talk with **** NO. Now I am stuck doing this. So anyway's sorry to rant, I Checked my checking account today and found there were a charge from itunes of $1.38 on it. I then looked at my daughter account and found 3 charges of the same amount. Mine ended up getting a overdraft fee of $35.00.
         My question is. What are you going to do about this? If I am unable to log in how can I get charged? does not make a hole lot of scene to me.How about you?

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Is the credit card registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management
    Each time that you add or change your card details then a temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid (though that is usually $1 or the approximate local equivalent) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702
    Did your daughter owe any amounts to iTunes ? Does anything show on your purchase history : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727 ? If they are proper charges which you don't think that you should have then you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • HT5622 Why is there a message saying, "This Apple ID has not yet been used in the itunes store"

    Why is there a message saying that my apple id has not yet been used in the itunes store? i just registered

    Hi midanjm,
    This prompt is usually displayed when your Apple ID needs to be configured for purchases. We'll need to run through the additional steps to setup your country, and payment information. See Step 10 and above on this resource (For iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch):
    iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2731
    Tip: If you are trying to create an account using an existing Apple ID, like your iCloud email address, you will receive a prompt telling you that your email address is already an Apple ID. Simply tap Continue, and then tap Use Existing Account on the following screen.
    - Next, you'll be required to enter your billing information. To choose a different Credit Card type, tap one of the available options, and then tap Done. You will not be charged until you make a purchase.
    - Once you've filled out all of the fields for your billing information, tap Next.
