Why won't apple put memory storage on iPhone, iPad?

Ok why can't Apple include memory storage to their devices?

Apple does "include memory storage" on their devices?  If you mean why do they not include some form of user expandable storage, then the answer is because they do not.  Any speculation as to why Apple does or does not include a specific feature is not a topic for discussion here, as per the terms of use.

  • 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.

    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 put the photo name in the Photos app?!

    I keep hoping that Apple will do a very simple thing and that is put the photo name/title in the Photos app for iOS. It's not even available in the iOS version of iPhoto as near as I can tell. This one simple thing would be a tremendous boon to anyone showing photos under any circumstances. "1 of 55" is not very helpful. What possible reason could make this undesirable? It isn't confusing or cluttering up the interface. Nothing is as simple as syncing photos to an iPad with iTunes; I've looked at Photosmith, and while a very nice app, you have to create & publish individual collections from Lightroom one at a time. Does anyone know if it's possible to force the title to be shown? I've read that the information isn't even transferred to the iPad or iPhone but at least some metadata is transferred for iOS iPhoto.

    You can let Apple know that you would like this feature:

  • 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 Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the contract was honored and I am still an AT

    Why won't Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the 2  year contract was honored and I continued to be an AT&T customer with an iPhone 4. I wanted my old 3gs unlocked so my daughter could use it overseas when she is deployed. AT&T service over there *****, the international plan was not worth it. The individual SIM cards per country are much more reliable and cheaper. Teslestial in Iraq and Afghanistan, Telecom in Croatia,Vodafphone in Germany and Italy.  Why Apple will not unlock these phones for our military to utilize is incomprehensible to me.  These young men and women are fighting for these Apple people to go to work every day, safe, to live lives they have become accustom to yet releasing a phone to use on another network they can't do at least for the military.... WHY APPLE??  WHY?   A good excuse not some of the many lame excuses I have received on the phone many times. AT&T states it is Apple that will not allow them to unlock the phones...  Please tell me why?  All I want Is my daughter to have a phone I trust, to be able to call me when she is given the free time to do so and I trust the apple phone.
    Apple, please reconsider your stance on this issue.  I am having a hard time understanding why you will not unlock the iPhone. 
    A simple code could allow me to talk to my daughter while fighting for our country the Great USA.  Apple should be on the front line and enabling those fighting for our life, liberty and pursuit of happiness to use unlocked phones on reliable local GSM networks.
    I honestly hope that someone who has some sort of authority to begin allowing the release of unlock codes, and not forcing people to unlock their phones with some program produced by some hack just to be able to use your wonderful phone.  That is is in a nutshell, People love the iPhone so much that they want the ability to use it on the most reliable GSM carrier available to them.  That should be a major compliment. Even men and women on the front line want your phone. I agree, my service is not the best where I live either, love the GSM technology so stay with it, but if I had the ability to change to the other GSM network that has much better coverage in this area of the country I would change. To change now I would not have my iPhone and that I will not part with. 
    Apple, please reconsider opening up the lock code and allow your gem of a phone to be used by many more people in many more areas and most importantly overseas fighting for our country.  I know if this is really thought about Apple would understand and come to the conclusion to release the unlock codes, and stop the people from hacking in to use the iPhone on other networks.
    I would love for my daughter to be able to use my iPhone 3gs while fighting for our Free country.
    A response would be appreciated.
    Thank you.
    An Apple customer for 10 years, phones and computers.
    P

    Defiled:
    I did sign a two year contract and completed that contract. The 3gs is no longer in service. My daughter is going overseas to protect you and your family. I was attempting to find a way for her to have a reliable phone that could offer her some connection with home as she travels through the middle east.  She travels in missions all over.
    At&T unlocks other phones of theirs why not the iPhone?  AT&T says that Apple will not give them the code, it is not the carrier.  If I would have known this situation would have come up I would have bought and unlocked 3gs phone"Deggie" .  My main complaint is that Apple has not good excuse as to why they will not allow their phones to be unlocked from services well, AT&T .  I bought the phone full price, completed the contract terms, even went for and iPhone 4 with another2 year contract, along with owning an apple computer... I love the product.  My main issue is give me a good answer as to why you won't allow a phone to be unlocked. It doesn't hurt Apple, People still have to buy the phones from them, and use their App store and iTunes.
    Sorry, just upset about my daughter heading over there, boots on the ground, and just pray she will be safe. Would have liked to facetime her while she is in the airports and in specific areas allowed for that.
    Please don't come down on me for asking this question. I understand all the contracts etc.... but to single out the iPhone specifically to not unlock after contract is over does not seem fair.
    Thank you for your responses.

  • Why won't Apple register the serial number for my ipod?

    Apple won't register the serial number for my ipod purchased at a Walmart.  Also noticed there is no settings icon in the upper left corner and can't connect to my own internet connection at home.  Any suggestions?

    Purchased new.  Did not try to register thru iTunes.   Just wanted to  hook up via my wi-fi connection at home.  Why won't Apple register my serial number without hook up to iTunes?

  • 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 admit the problem with 6th generation nano power button?

    The power (sleep) button on the 6th generation nano is obviously faulty and poorly designed. Why won't Apple step up and make it right and issue a recall to fix or solve the issue so many people are having? Apple, do you hear us? Make it right! You know it's wrong! If a power button fails after a couple of years, that's a sad design. Shame on you!

    No, they don't hear you posting here. My button is working fine after 3 years.
    This is primarily a user-to-user technical support site. You've wasted your time here.
    Go down to Contact Us at the bottom right, get Apple's address and right them a letter.

  • Why won't Apple do not manufacture keyboard with combined trackpad?

    So why won't Apple do not manufacture keyboard with combined trackpad?
    Same size like numeric keyboard, but without numeric buttons and model with wire or wireless, i'm just curious why they haven't manufactured this kind of product yet.
    I have iMac Early 2008 (Upgraded with 128 GB ssd) and Macbook air 2014, sometimes i feel odd carrying separately keyboard and mouse if i want to plug my macbook with IPS display, so it would be lot help if they were combined.

    Have a look at this (I've not used it and have no idea whether it's any good):

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

  • Why won't Apple activate the FM receiver feature of the Broadcom  BCM4335 chip?

    Why won't Apple activate the FM receiver feature of the Broadcom  BCM4335 chip?
    I paid for it, it uses less energy, less bandwidth, during emergencies, we would have radio access & FEMA would like it activated.
    I asked an Apple tech on chat and they said there is no FM capability on the phone.  I asked if my iPhone has a Broadcom chip and they ended the chat.  I had to give them my phone number twice, but they never called back with me back to answer the question.  According to NPR the chip is activated in other countries.

    could it be because the iphone6 don't have an Broadcom  BCM4335 chip?

  • Why won't Apple TV accept my AppleID password?

    Why won't Apple TV accept my AppleID password?

    Same here. When I want to sign in to iCloud I enter my password as requested which then takes me to the Apple Terms & Condition screen, so I hit the agree button, then it says connecting but then takes me back to the Terms & Condition page. It keeps repeating the same thing every time I hit the Agree button.

    Because you cannot use a credit card issued in another country.  This is how the system works.  Sorry
    I don't think Apple is striving to be just like every other company.

  • Why won't Apple Mail utilize addresses from Apple Contacts ?

    Why won't Apple Mail utilize addresses from Apple Contacts ?
    Some of the people in my contacts have multiple e-mail addresses.   Using contacts from within Apple Mail I can see these e-mail addresses.  I then select the e-mail address I need to use and it is highlighted in blue.  However, when I drag that e-mail address into the e-mail it uses the first e-mail address on the list and does NOT use the one that is highlighted.
    This worked perfectly with good old Snow Leopard. Why doesn't it work now?  What is the procedure for selecting an e-mail address that is not the first one in contacts ?

    To see if there's a recovery volume installed reboot with the Option key held down and see what volumes are shown that you can book from.  If there is a recovery volume it will be displayed.  The arrow keys can be used to moved to the desired volume and the Enter or Return key to start the boot.
    Yes I did that. I don't no why, but I have no recovery volume.
    However, I do have mavericks on a USB flash drive. I booted from the flash drive and followed your procedure.  This did not fix my Mail problem.
    I notice now that after I drag an e-mail address into the header there is a small down arrow next to the incorrect e-mail address, this allows me to choose from a small group including the correct e-mail.  I'm just wondering, perhaps this Is the way Apple Mail works in Mavericks.
