Why isn't there an iOS app to access a Time Capsule?

Synology has apps to access their NAS systems. Wouldn't it make sense for Apple to have an app for Apple iOS devices to connect to Apple Time Capsules?

It would, if Apple wanted you to do this. But, they don't, since there would already be an Apple App for this if they did. I assume that you already know about FileBrowser here, which is not an Apple App.
So you might want to tell Apple what you want, rather than have them tell you what you want.

Why isn't there an iOS app to access a Time Capsule?
The bottom line here is that "Why" questions can only be answered by Apple. Only they know the "Why" about anything.
If you happen to be asking about a non-Apple App, and do not know about FileBrowser, you might want to take a look.

Why isn't there a chart with ios, mac os and itunes compatibily?

Since there are so many people who have been screwed over by upgrading to a newer ios without knowing that they would need a different version of iTunes that can only work with a newer Mac os, but their computer cannot run that os, so now they are out of luck, WHY isn't there a chart somewhere that shows the compatibility between ios, itunes, Mac os and even Mac computer versions? The info is available if you search for it separately (lots of searches), but I can't find it all in one place. For example, ios7 works only with itunes 11.1 and up on 10.6.8 and up on an intel Mac. That is really useful for people who want to make sure their whole infrastructure is compatible before they upgrade. Does anyone know if something like this exists anywhere? Thanks.

Why isn't there video clipping with iOS 5.1 on a first gen iPad?

I have a first gen iPad and can find no way to clip (simple) a video. iMovie can't run, okay. So why isn't there even the usual, simple edit tool in the photo interface? It's ridiculous ... If the ultimate answer is either jailbreak or upgrade, then why buy Apple going forward?

I also have a 1st gen and, I imagine unlike you, I just can't recall Apple as ever having advertised or promoted it as the perfect platform for video editing .. or, for that matter, ever having addressed that issue at all. I can't think of any apps that would have been able to do that sort of thing before the advent of the iPad2, either; why would there have been, seeing as how the 1 lacked a camera?
I have no idea if any of the video editing apps now in the Store will work on the '1' model, but wouldn't be too surprised if they did not. There has to be a miniscule market for that.
Ah well. You've made up your mind about not buying Apple in the future, right? I really have no interest at all in trying to change your mind.

HT201371 Why isn't there an album ONLY for photos taken by camera?

This is my first iPhone, and I find it extremely messy that my camera roll has so many pictures from everywhere:
1- Pcitrues taken by camera
2- Pictures saved through Safari
3- Screenshots
4- and maybe some pictures saved through other Apps.
Why isn't there a way that all camera pictures can go into an album which no other app can use (including iOS' built-in apps such as Safari).
In Android for example, it was much easier...

It is just designed to use the computers ability to take off pictures as if it were a digital camera.
While we are all users here and cannot explain why they chose this route, my assumption is that many people already organize photos via some 3rd party program (Mac users use iPhone, many Windows users use Picasa etc), so they had the Camera Roll act as a digital camera when plugged in to allow users to maintain the same process of getting pictures and organizing that they are already use to using. If one things about it, it was a nice thing they did and not force users to use iTunes to get pics, then have to go to their other program and have to manually organize.

Ok...so I have the latest version of iTunes...why isn't there a cloud icon next to the movie I just bought? I assume I need it to download from iCloud.

Ok...so I have the latest version of iTunes per response to my previous question. Why isn't there a cloud icon next to the movie I just downloaded? I assume that's the only way to access movies on the cloud. ( My computer shows the icon.)

What are you trying to do? If the movie is on your iPad, the cloud icon will not appear next to the movie. You will see the cloud icon next to the movie if you delete it from your iPad and then you can download it again. That is assuming that the movie is eligible for a free download as not every movie can be downloaded again for free.
This is a screenshot of the purchased tab in iTunes on my iPad. These movies are already on my iPad so there is no cloud icon next to them for another download.
What I don't understand is for what reason are you trying to access the movie? If you want to watch the movie, it is in the videos app. Maybe that is where I am missing the boat.

Why isn't there an option to send a photo right after taking it?

Currently, after taking a picture you can click on that picture in the lower right corner of the camera screen.
Once you do that, you can choose < Camera Roll, Done, Edit, Trash.
Why isn't there an option to choose that photo and send it as a Message, Email, etc. right there, instead of having to close the camera, go back to your photo albums, then choose the picture (which may take a little while if you have a lot of photos), and then choose the sending method?
Its kind of frustrating when you want to quickly send a pic!

There on my phone running iOS 7.0.4. Reset your phone:
Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.
Bear in mind, won't be there if taking a pic from the lock screen.

Why isn't there a TechNet forum for ADFS yet? They have been forwarding questions to the "Project Geneva" forum for years now.

Why isn't there a TechNet forum for ADFS yet? They have been forwarding questions to the "Project Geneva" forum for years now.
It would be nice if there was IT Pro specific forum. The MSDN Geneva forum has people who have programming questions for WIF in addition to people trying to get ADFS and Web App Proxy setup.
WHY?

Given the growing importance of Office 365 and the role of ADFS in some of the larger deployments, that may happen. Someday.
It is somewhat arbitrary.
AD DS, AD CS, AD FS, and AD RMS are all considered components of Active Directory.
I suppose that's what the AD stands for...
Yet, most ADCS questions are posted and answered in the Technet Security forum.
ADFS questions are often referred to Project Geneva.
Directory Services has its own forum.
Group Policy has its own forum.

If you look in "related threads", someone asked a question precisely about ADCS:

I just installed FF, and I want a SIMPLE way to copy all my bookmarks. Why isn't there a menu item to do this? The need seems OBVIOUS!

I simply want to make a copy of all of my wife's "Favorites", i.e. your Bookmarks. In FireFox, PrntScrn won't do it, Windows "Snippets" won't do it, and any HELP answers I've seen are hidiously complex. The need/desire to have a paper copy or Word copy of her bookmarks (of course, WITH URL's) seems completely, blatantly obvious. Why all the secrecy? Why isn't there a MENU item to make a copy of the list of Bookmarks??
And no, I'm not going to try AGAIN, AGAIN, AGAIN to do the Export/HTLM solution, whatever that means. Sheesh. I'm 10 minutes into FireFox and I'm ready to go back to I.E.

So you are trying to import bookmarks from IE?

So, the upload time will vary on internet connection. If there is an issue with how fast it is uploaded you can check if prefetching is turned on, but this does not really affect uploading [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Controlling_DNS_prefetching Controlling DNS prefetching]
If you search for solutions, you will see a bunch of tweaks as well that may be helpful to your specific computer. [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]] to make sure you are all up to date as well.
