Why won't Apple let Leica Disto connect to iPad & iPhone?

I am a surveyor/designer, I take all site measurements using a Lieca Disto and write them on paper. There is software available to link Distos to Anroid tablets but according to Leica apple won't license them to connect via bluetooth to their products. Does anyone know why, or can Apple comment please as it would be so useful, the only alternative otherwise is to go out and buy Android equipment!

Apple doesn't respond in these discussion groups - they're user-to-user only.
You can feed back directly at

I'm not an expert on this, but Apple limits the kinds of data connection available via Bluetooth, and I guess this is the issue for Leica

Why won't Apple let a screen recorder on the App Store

Hi why won't Apple let screen recorders on the App Store?

You'd have to ask Apple. We wouldn't know - we are just users like you.
Sorry,

Why won't Apple let me set duckduckgo as my default search engine for safari?

I am using a iPad Mini and Safari only lists three options for a default search engine (google, bing, yahoo), all of which lack privacy. I would like to set my default to duckduckgo and would prefer not to modify my iPad illegally or use secondary apps (duckduckgo app). Why won't Apple just let me modify my default search engine manually? I quite enjoy Safari and don't like wasting space with other browsers on my iPad.

No browser can insure privacy.
The options Google, Bing, and Yahoo. Period.

Why won't Apple let T-mobile have iPhone?

I am curious, I cant seem to find an answer, but why wont Apple let T-Mobile have the iPhone? All of the other carriers have them, and im curious as to the reason behind the decision to not let T-Mobile have them as well.

Maybe for the same reason people ask the same silly questions over and over without being bothered to do a simple search of the forums or Google.
Maybe for the same reasons that individuals like yourself fail to abide by the Terms of Use of the forums which prohbit speculations and state to stick to technical support questions.

Why won't iMessage send/receive PICTURES through my iPad, iPhone, and MacPro on Wifi?

For the last 2 weeks or so, I haven't been able to send/receive images through the iMessage application on either of my iPad, iPhone 4S, or MacPro. I have tried different Wi-fi connections, I have deleted/re-added email addresses to which I can be reached at/send messages and tried sending different pictures...all unsuccessfully. I try sending them, they say "Delivered" for a moment and then switch to saying "Not Delivered" (in red). I have tried to confirm with other people if they receive the pictures I send, regardless of me seeing the "Not delivered" message, but they say that they didn't receive anything. I have only been able to send pictures once in the last 2 weeks. Can anyone help me with this?

Why won't Apple let you use a @me for Apple ID Primary email?

Hello everyone!
I already know that it is impossible at this point to change your primary Apple ID to a @me address. I have called Apple Support and they have already told me that it is not possible at this point.
Does anyone know why they won't let you use it?
Some people have told me that it is apart of your Apple ID, which i know it is. It is an alternate email address for it.
My problem is though is that all my purchases and Apple information goes to my old email address that got hacked.(My new one is the @me associated with my Apple ID)
Thanks
Ryan

If, as you said in your first post, there isn't an Apple Store you can get to, call Apple support and talk to them. As Tim suggested, it may be due to your having a repair order open already. If you call Apple, they should be able to get you set up.
Regards.

My internet works for my laptop but why won't it let my ipod connect?

I don't know what's wrong... I even restored the whole thing but it didn't make a difference. The internet is fine and it allows my laptop to connect, but not my ipod touch. What's wrong?? Help!

Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Resetting network setting on the iPod: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.

Why won't apple let me send my phone in for repair?

My phone is unfortunately water damaged so I want to send it to get repaired.
After filling in the online form on the Apple support page a few days ago I realised I didn't have the £185 it quoted for the repair so I thought I'd leave it until I'd got paid to send for repair.
Now 3 days later, when I fill in the form online to send my phone for repair, once I get to the 'detailed quote and payment' tab, it redirects me to a page that says 'We're unable to complete the repair. Please try again or choose another solution.'
Does anyone have any idea why it seemed to be working fine a few days ago but now just displays this message? I've filled the form in so many times that I feel like I'm going crazy.
I would take it into an Apple Store but there isn't one locally.
Any advice?

Why won't apple tv 2 stay connected?, Why won't apple tv 2 stay connected?

ATV2 won't stay connect and is difficult and won't always reconnect.
Thanks for any help!

shared lib was around long before appletvs
in the form of computers on the same network being able to access eachothers shared lib in itunes
if you can do that from your macbook pro as in access the shared lib of the imac
then the problem is with the appletv somehow
if you also can't access the shared lib of the imac from the macbook then you setup something wrong
or have a firewall blocking it or are not on the same network with the 2 devices
if the later when you fix the shared lib between computers chances are if will also be fixed from the appletv

Why won't Apple fix the wifi connectivity problem with the iMac and new OS instead of just havin us go through hours of useless mock fixes!

I have spent hours with apple care about this problem with wifi connectivity. According to all the posts I'm not alone. I love my new IMAC
but i'll be glad to go back to my PC just so I can get my email without all the headaches. It seems that Apple has lost interest in
the IMAC and all of the problems associated with the new OS.

Keep in mind that ASC is where people go to get help, so yes, you are seeing reports of people who are having WiFi connection issues. But while it might seem like there are lots of people having trouble, given the sheer number of iMacs in use, it is a very small number. Also keep in mind that WiFi isn't totally under Apple's control. There are dozens of WiFi routers. Even worse, the manufacturers of WiFi routers often release firmware upgrades to fix flaws without ever informing the consumer. And just to add to the confusion, while WiFi 801.2 n routers have been sold for several years, for most of that time there was no agreed upon standard!
So if you'd like help, first, what router do you have and have you checked the vendor site to see that it has the latest firmware?

Why won't Apple give an update on why SIRI has crashed?

why won't Apple let us what is going on with SIRI, it's clearly a HUGE issue for people like me who have had an iPhone since day 1 five years ago and who have waited for them to get this phone right, the very least they could do is let us know what the issue is and what they are doing to resolve it. Not to mention my new phone for some reason doesnt pick up as good as the last phone, does anybody else have this issue??

All sales are final
This has alwasy been the case.
On rare occasions, Apple will allow an exception

HT202636 How is it that apple allows you to permanently delete photos, but not books. Some books are a blight, and one has buyer's remorse, and they should be obliterated? Why won't Apple allow this to happen? We can do it with photos? And iI think music?

I want, for whatever reason, to be able to permanently delete, not just hide, books and PDFs from my iCloud? Why won't Apple let me? Beg pardon from Apple if I'm mistaken, but don't think so.

I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever.
But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud.
iTunes prefs > Store > Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.
This will show all your iTunes purchases in your library with a cloud icon down arrow. Click the icon to redownload or click on Play to stream without downloading.
Also see this , -> Download past purchases
and techncially, you don't "own" the movie, You simply have a license to use it.
Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library.
Actually, no it does not tell you that.
FYI: You should keep copies of all yoru iTnue spurahses as the labels/movie studios/copyright owners can pull their product at anytime and it won't be available to redownload.

Why won't Apple accept debit cards? I ordered 2 new iPhones at ATT on Monday using my debit card. I was just notified by ATT that Apple wont accept debit cards so my order cannot go through. I don't use credit cards so I don't carry debt!

Why won't Apple accept debit cards to buy an iPhone 5? I ordered 2 new iPhones at ATT on Monday using my debit card. I was just notified by ATT that Apple wont accept debit cards so my order cannot go through. I don't use credit cards so I don't carry debt! They (ATT) re-emphasized this is not their policy, but Apple's and that I would have the same problem if I went to Verizon. Is this really the policy and if so why? Apple has no problems accepting debit cards for my iTunes account?!

I think this is an AT&T thing not an Apple policy, I had this battle with them before when the 4s came out.So this time I went directly to the Apple stor, I had no problem pre-ordering my Iphone5 on the 14th with my debit card, already shipped will be here the 21st. I'd go straight to the Apple store and purchase them there...

Why won't Apple allow Verizon to let me upgrade from an Android phone to an iPhone 5 early at the reduced price?

Why won't Apple allow Verizon to let me upgrade from an Android phone to an iPhone 5 early at the reduced price?

Here's one of my responses from Verizon:
Dear Kevin,
Good Afternoon; I know how frustrating it is to want a new phone, and be told that you are not eligible to upgrade early. My name is Shane, and I will be assisting you today regarding your most recent email.
I am sorry to say that it is not possible for us to do the upgrade. We most certainly don’t want to lose a valued customer, but we can’t break our contract with Apple. If we did this for you, we would have to do it for everyone. If we did this for everyone we would risk losing our contract with Apple, and not be able to sell iPhones at all. I understand it is a savings to cancel your contract with us, and move to another provider we certainly don’t want you to do that, but that is an option for you.
Kevin, I am sorry that we were not able to give you the resolution you were wanting. I do appreciate you being a valued Verizon Wireless customer, and I hope you have a good day!
Sincerely,
Shane
Verizon Wireless
Coordinator IRT

HT4743 When I try to buy a tv episode, it comes up with a message "problems communicating with itunes store, try later" click ok and then another messge comes up to verify payment info online. Everything is correct. Why won't it let me buy??

When I try to buy a tv episode on apple tv, it gives me a message of "problems connecting with store, try again later". I hit ok, and then another message comes up to go online and verify payment information. I have done that, all info is correct. Why won't it let me purchase? This has been going on for days.

I figured it out!
I read a solution for something that sounded similar.
Anyone in similar position:
Open iTunes app on iPhone, and pick an option from bottom, such as music. Then scroll down to bottom of page and where your iTunes ID is, press on it, and pick sign out.
Then return to home screen, and double press home button and press and hold on first icon showing, until a minus symbol appears in the top left of icons present. Press on each minus symbol on each app in turn, until all app icons have disappeared. Then Restart the phone by pressing and hold the home button and the on/off/standby button at top of phone, until the apple symbol appears in centre of blank screen.
Swipe to turn phone fully on and open settings and scroll down to iTunes and apps option and tap that. Pick sign in and put in your apple ID, it will accept it and then return to home screen and open iTunes a you'll find it works fine
Simple really, but some like me won't think f this themselves!
Hope that helps
