Will apple ever support flac already?

Hi,
Apple - Will you ever support flac on iTunes? Audiophiles would like to use this format with iTunes / iPod. I don't need to explain my case, its not competition, just a different popular format.
Thanks.

This is a user-to-user forum, and you aren't talking to Apple here. Apple don't announce their future plans, and I'm afraid no-one on here would have any information on this.
You can send feedback to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html - you won't get a response but they do read all submissions.

    will apple ever support blue tooth 4

    Then you would need to add newer hardware to your older Mac

    You cannot magically support features on hardware that was not built with them. The actual wires and chips need to have the features.  You need a newer BT chip.

  • Will apple ever support flash?

    will thats basically it

    Just to clarify - Apple do support Flash - under OSX on their computers.  There is no version of Flash to support under iOS, and Adobe have stated quite clearly there never will be.

  • Will Apple ever support the µFT-System (G1, GH1, GF1, E-P1, E-P2)?

    It seems like Apple is ignoring the Micro-FourThird System for more than one year now - even the Panasonic G1's RAW-Format, the first of all µFT-cameras isn't supporte bei Apple! This is quite scandalous because this system is so well-accepted by the photographers' community that even the manufactures are overrun by the demand and you've to wait to get some. I would not say that µFT changes the market for photographic gear but what we could see is that its obviously filling a long-opened gap between the bridge-cameras with their small noisy sensors and the heavy and bulky SLRs. With a small lens attached µFT bodies like the PEN or GF1 still fit into a jacket's pocket but offering a nearly SLR-quality and the flexibility of interchangeable lenses and the short FFD makes µFT camera bodies as flexible to adopt other lens types as no other interchangeable lens system.
    I don't want to blame other camera concepts - what I want to point out is that µFT is a smart niche as is the Mac, too. A lot of people who think smart buy a Mac and a lot of smart photographers bought µFT equipment in the last year. Every Mac (except for the servers) comes with a really great software setup to make amateur photographers happy and for less than 200 € they can go professional with buying Aperture. Of course, they also could buy Lightroom instead, but that's only half as smart - no system-wide RAW preview, no easy integration into iLife, iWeb, MobileMe etc.
    +Come on, Apple - are you blind and deaf? Listen and see what your customers demand - a smart support for a smart camera system in their favorite OS!+

    As far as I can see, the OP was not doing anything other than making a rhetorical plea for Apple to wake up and support an important class of camera. I'm sure that he is under no illusion that it will lead to anything other than helping his blood pressure.
    The Feedback route is the way Apple has designed to let users address issues with Apple Engineers. http://www.apple.com/feedback/aperture.html
    You will not get a reply, but at least you have submitted your information/request in a more useful manner than posting in these Forums.
    I don't think the OP was addressing an issue with Apple engineers, so the feedback route was not relevant. Whether it is more useful to submit requests via that route remains to be seen - I'm sure plenty of people have requested that their MFT camera be supported, and the response has been zilch.
    At this point it seems just as valuable to do something useless but therapeutic as it is to send blind messages to /dev/null at apple.com.

  • Will Apple ever support Adobe Flash Player for iPad ?

    How many iPad users have tried to access manuals for consumer products they have and are unable to obtain because of this issue ?

    It's unlikely that Flash will ever be supported on the iPad.
    Flash is a proprietary product and is being replaced by a standards-based solution, HTML5.
    By the way, I've never seen a user manual that needed Flash. These documents are almost always PDF files which are supported by the iPad.
    Note Flash questions are very frequent posts here and usually you can find Flash answers by using the Forum search feature rather than posting new, redundant, questions.

  • Will iBooks ever support Adobe DRM?

    I quite often want to read books that are not available in the UK iBookstore. These books are almost always available from another UK publisher in ePub format, but with Adobe DRM. So I now use another ebook reader app that supports Adobe DRM.
    The other library is now bigger than the one in iBooks and I have transferred all my non-DRM ebooks and .pdfs into it too. I keep iBooks going for my iBookstore purchases, but I mostly use the new reader. This is a shame. I found iBooks and the iBookstore really easy to use, and the integration with my Apple ID and backup on sync really convenient.
    Will iBooks ever support Adobe DRM so that I can go back to keeping everything in iBooks?

    Not a question anyone here would be able to answer. You can give Apple your feed back.

  • A later version of Apple Application Support is already installed on this computer.

    I am trying to update / install iTunes 12.0.1.26.  Apple Application Support will not install because it says there is already a later version installed.  There is not!  I have uninstalled after initial message and tried to reinstall but I still recieve the same message.

    Good Afternoon, JohnHT2!
    I think I have the fix to your issue.
    I've been experiencing the same issue as you describe above. The issue occurred for me during the upgrade process from version 11.4.0.18 to version 12.0.1.26 (which is the current version downloadable from Apple).  The installation sometimes appears to be okay, but the Apple Application Support fails to update correctly.  In other instances, the iTunes installation fails completely with error 1603 (which is generic "fatal error" code).
    Symptoms:
    Just some of the symptoms I've noticed in my environment.
    - In Programs & Features, there is no Apple Application Support to uninstall.
    - In Event Viewer's Application log, you may see Event ID 10005 from Source MsiInstaller, stating the dreaded error message "A later version of Apple Application Support is already installed on this computer."
    - In Event Viewer's Application log, you may see Event ID 1000 from Source Application Error, stating "Faulting application name: MsiExec.exe" along with a bunch of other error details.
    - When attempting to start iTunes, you may receive popup error "Apple Application Support was not found.  Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes.  Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again".
    - Uninstalling and installing iTunes fails, including via the steps described for a "full uninstall" as described here on the Apple site (for instance: Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates)
    - Installing Apple Application Support via the extracted MSI (AppleApplicationSupport.msi) fails with the same error: "A later version of Apple Application Support is already installed on this computer."
    - Installing previous versions of Apple Application Support fails with the same error (tried versions 10.7.0.21, 11.0.0.163, 11.0.1.012, 11.0.3.42, 11.1.0.126, 11.1.3.8, 11.2.2.3, 11.3.0.54, 11.3.1.2, 11.4.0.18).  (now that I know the issue, I'm confident any previous version of the installer will fail).
    - If you run the MSI installation with verbose logging, you may see lines stating: "PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding BNEWERPRODUCTISINSTALLED property. Its value is '1'." and "PreventDowngrade. Return value 1."
    There may be other indications, but these are things we ran into.  I'm trying to be detailed so that other folks who run into this issue may feel better about the below fixes being an option for them.
    Resolutions:
    I've found two ways to remedy the issue in our environment.  You can either use the Microsoft FixIt utility to clean up the previous installation for us, or you can edit the registry manually to repair the installation.  We're in an office and prefer not going computer-to-computer to fix everyone's issue independently, so we had to go via the registry.  I was able to fix it via both ways, though.
    Fix 1: Run the Microsoft Program Install Uninstall Troubleshooter.
    For this fix you will need to be logged in as an administrator for the computer.
    Here are the steps:
    Download and Run the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall FixIt: [FixIt Link]
    In the troubleshooter, choose: Detect problems and apply the fixes for me (Recommended)
    Choose Installing
    From the list, select Apple Application Support and click Next. (it actually does appear here!)
    Select Yes, try uninstall. This step could take a while to process once it starts.
    Once it confirms it is fixed, click Next.
    Select "Yes, the problem has been fixed" and click Next.
    Finish/close the FixIt tool.
    Now the Apple Application Support will install successfully on your next attempt.
    - If you don't have iTunes installed, you can simply run the latest downloaded installer: iTunes64Setup.exe
    - If the other iTunes components are already installed, you will need to go to Programs & Features (or Add/Remove programs) and uninstall the iTunes program, then re-install the program from the downloaded installer: iTunes64Setup.exe
    - If you have the MSI, you can simple run AppleApplicationSupport.msi and carry on happily.  Make sure it's the right version of the MSI (right-click it, select Properties, go to the Details tab and verify the Comment line says "Apple Application Support 3.1").  If you don't know what an MSI is... ignore this and use the installer.
    iTunes should work perfectly normally for you now.
    Fix 2:
    If you're like me and you need to repair iTunes over a larger number of computers, then Fix 1 quickly becomes too time consuming.  Thankfully, a quick registry edit will resolve the issue as well.
    For more advanced users; if you're not sure what the Windows Registry is, please tread very carefully and make sure you back up the registry before you change anything!
    You'll need to be an administrator on the computer to do this.
    Start Registry Editor.
    In Windows 8.1, you can right-click the start menu (flag in the bottom-right corner) and choose Run.  Then type "regedit" and click OK.
    In Windows 8, go to the Start menu, click the magnifying glass (or just start typing) and search for "regedit".  The first result should be "regedit.exe" - click that.
    In Windows Vista, click the Start menu, then click the little arrowing pointing to the right (>) and choose Run.  Then type "regedit" and click OK.
    In Windows 7 or XP, click the Start menu orb, and choose "Run...". Then type "regedit" and click OK.
    Make a backup of your registry.In Registry Editor, right-click on "Computer" and choose "Export".  Save the file somewhere on your computer.  You'll probably never need it.. which are famous last words.  Better safe than sorry!
    Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\ED0FAC38B3D873C46A13B2F861CE0313\
    If the key "ED0FAC38B3D873C46A13B2F861CE0313" doesn't exist, then go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products and make sure "Products" is highlighted.
    Go to the Edit menu and choose "Find...".
    Do a search for "Apple Application Support".
    Your first result should be a ProductName value of "Apple Application Support".
    Verify at the very bottom of Registry Editor that your current location is "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\[GUID], where GUID is an alphanumeric string that's 32 characters long.
    Right-click "Version" and choose "Modify".
    In Value Data, type 0 (the number zero) and click OK.
    Close Registry Editor.
    You should now be able to successfully install the AppleApplicationSupport.msi or re-install iTunes.  If, for whatever reason, it still detects the wrong version, go back to the Registry Editor and delete the entire key from above (so, right-click on the 'folder' named "ED0FAC38B3D873C46A13B2F861CE0313" and select "Delete").  Should never be necessary, though..
    In a Windows domain there are many ways to update the registry so use whatever works best for you.  I'll be adding this as a special extra step in our SCCM deployment.
    I hope this helps!  It took us a good many hours to track down what was stopping us from resolving the issue (and/or causing it to begin with).  Suffice to say we now have a whole bunch of users who are very happy to no longer get iTunes error messages when they log into their computers or attempt to start iTunes itself.
    Have a great day!

    I have just received my second MacBook Air 11" the Wifi connection keeps dropping. Also, after 3 meters away from the rooter it keeps searching for network! It is the second try and the same issues. Will Apple ever come up with a solution? There is a program pack for the connection issue but I cannot believe that this computer wifi keeps connected only while nearby the rooter!

    Applied this update?

    If the update is installed aready, you may have to wait until OS X 10.8.5
    update if and when it is relased.
    Best.

  • HT202157 When will Apple TV support Amazon Prime Instant Video?

    When will Apple TV support Amazon prime instant video?

    Most of the YouTube video subtitles are inserted by flash. Unfortunately, ios OS products don't support flash. If you do want to play them with subtitle, maybe you can use a video converter to help you convert YouTube videos to Apple TV. The only thing you should make sure before the conversion is that the videos that you download is bearing the subtitle, then the converted files would have the substitles as well. Hope that would help.

    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.
