Will Apple ever get to fix Wireless Sync for Windows 7

I have not been able to get my devices iPhone 4S and my iPad 3 to be able to do updates with apps and such since the 5.1.1 and 10.6.3, it does not want to connect to each said device. It says looking for iPhone, iPad but never connects and says can not find it on my WiFi network. I got to manually update apps from the devices and only ever now and again will it wifi sync but it only does it when I see the icon in the lower right of iTunes that it can share or whatever that icon means or when I plug into wall sometimes it does it but not all the time it is frustrating, I also hit the renew lease in the wifi area of general, settings and sometimes it helps but most of the time it don't. I have done all the trouble shooting ie: uninstall all components in proper order of itunes etc and restarted computer verified no traces were left and then re-installed all components and that has not worked. I wish or would like Apple to look into it and see why it happens or have someone look into it and come up with a fix and or update to resolve the issue.

I think I'll add my tuppence and say that I have just downgraded to Tiger, and I am so much happier now.
I bought my Mac in November (this my first real experience of Mac) and immediately upgraded the pre-installed Tiger to Leopard (using the supplied upgrade CD).
The problems started right away. My symptoms were that the wireless network would not work until I'd de-selected and re-selected the SSID in the Airport menu after each start-up or wake from sleep. It'd also drop out intermittently - maybe once every two or three hours. My wife was close to demanding the old XP workstation back. Not good.
I hard-coded my ISP's DNS settings in to the network configuration, but that didn't help at all. I didn't try OpenDNS, but I don't see how that would have made any difference when all of the other wireless network devices that we own (HP laptop, iPod touch, Wii, old-HP workstation) work fine, all of the time.
Anyway, this weekend I used the Disk Manager in Leopard to resize the Macintosh_HD partition and created a second, smaller partition called Tiger. I used the light-grey discs that came with the Mac to install Tiger, choosing the new partition as the target.
Since installing Tiger my wireless network has worked perfectly, and the little cheese (as the Airport icon has come to be known in our house) is always at maximum strength.
Go Tiger!
P.S. I was also getting another, more serious problem in Leopard - many applications, Safari and Mail included, would not launch - I'd immediately get a Application Quit Unexpectedly message. Anybody else seeing this? I am just stabbing in the dark, but I think it might be because some demo application expired after 30 days, and that might have affected the quick look feature. Scrivener and iWork '08 both expired around the time the problems started.

  • Will apple ever get the youtube back

    I have been using my ipad for almost a year I updated my ipad software and youtube is gone but before I had a ipod touch for 4 years and been using youtube for ever do you think that apple will get the old youtube back. Google and Apple are the biggest stores in the world you think that you two would agree on something  Its not that you need money please get the old youtube back please or at least make it possible I think its stupied that you added a clock we already have a clock on the top of the device that app is stupied please please please apple and google work something out so that we can get the old youtube back.

    The youTube App is gone because Apple's license to use it has expired.
    YouTube is still accessible on the iPad via Safari (or any other browser) at http://m.youtube.com/
    Sign in at this site and your favorites, etc. will still be present. Save the site icon to the iPad Home screen and you will have a replacement for the youTube App.
    There is also an iPhone youTube App in the App Store which works on the iPad as well as the Jasmine App.

  • Will Apple ever allow customized fonts and sizes for home screen?

    6 Plus 64 GB. Over all love it, but the top "bar" displays are freakishly small especially the time display top center. Extremely difficult to read. Even on lock screen which is much bigger, the font is so thin that it nearly disappears depending on color scheme of background. As opposed to an App to display something different, it might be nice if Apple allowed the option. Any suggestions? Thx.

    There are a couple of choices. While you cannot do anything about the status bar text, as far as the clock is concerned, you can go into Settings>General>Accessibility and select Bold Text. That will take the thin out of the clock.

  • Nokia 5800 - Will it ever get fixed?

    Well i have had a few problems with my phone the main one is that the browser just closes on its own and you have to start from scratch and then it does it again, now my network provider know about the problem but say they are waiting for nokia to release a fix, but nokia dont seem in any rush as its been 10 months since the last one.
    V40.0.005
    So will it ever get a software fix or are 3 just fobing me off?
    Thanks

    @thebug
    Latest available firmware for 5800 is V51, I found the browser is good and not crashing as it used to be before. You have to push 3 to release this firmware from their end, hope you've got the device from them.

    Hey Posada143, You can still try the rice thing, but do not expect much, as roaminggnome has stated. The rice only works if you do it ASAP and leave the iPod off-- do not attempt use, turn on or charge until it is completely dried out. This is probably academic at this point but remember this for the next time: The drying can take 10 days. You put the uncooked rice and iPod in a sealed bag, change the rice every couple of days. This creates a low humidity environment and draws the moisture out of the iPod, but it takes time. Turn your iPod on to earlier, and you run the risk of shorting out, damaging the components inside. Even if done correctly it can spotty. If you do get the iPod to work (and this may require Resetting, Restoring or attempting to place it in DFU recover mode) the first thing you do is make backups, because you never know how long it will continue to work. As for your pictures, if you can't get your iPod to work, you can try data retrieval companies, however; there is no guaranty it will work and it tends to be very expensive. In the future get in the habit of as making backups, because you just don't know. And invest in and use a water tight case. Hope this helps, Good luck. Cheers.

  • TS2755 When will Apple ever make it convenient for the customer, I just bought an iPad Air and I'm very upset that I can only use iMessage, iPads are the biggest mistake to buy. I'll never buy another if I can text using SMS or MMS

    When will Apple ever make it convenient for the customer, I just bought an iPad Air and I'm very upset that I can only use iMessage, iPads are the biggest mistake to buy if you like texting family and friends. I'll never buy another one if I can't text using SMS or MMS.  Is there any hope for a patch or new operating system to fix this issue, or an app to use with iPad Air

    Hi...
    Keep in mind Flash is a third party plugin not written by Apple. Apple is not responsible for incompatibility issues with the Flash plugin.
    Thoughts on Flash
    Try troubleshooting...
    Quit Safari.
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
    Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty ri.
    Cache
    Now try a video.
    BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safa

  • Will apple ever introduce saturation alterations?

    Will apple ever include a "saturation" button in which it is possible to alter the degree of colour on the screen similar to the brightness slider bar? Many complain that their screens lack the vibrant colours needed to really enjoy watching movies and playing their favourite apps. Including this feature could boost sales and popularity of all the iDevices,  including iPod touch which generally has a poor colour quality.

    I personally doubt it, but let Apple know of your concern here. They should have a Gamma adjustment to get rid of the yellow hue of screens too. Unfortunately, you have to jailbreak to do that.
