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.

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 be supported on a mac?

I am an avid reader of ibooks on my iPad 2 and iPhone 4. I also have a macbook pro and would love to have my books be readable on my laptop. This is especially important because of the release of textbooks and interactivce content within iBooks. It seems to me that there would be a huge market for college/high school students who would buy more text books through iBooks if there was support on their laptops. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

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.

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 iBooks ever be an Apple App from the Mac App Store?

Will iBooks ever be an Apple App from the Mac App Store?

Apple does not offer any sort of ibooks/epub reader for OSX , but there are 3rd party apps available and even freeware to import/export from pdf into epub,mobi,kindle and vice versa ( google "calibre" +"epub" ) . I personally love this Mac app called "BookReader" ( MacAppStore ) , which resembles the iOS ibook experience to the best in my oppinion . If Apple would have had such a tool it would most certainly be of this sort :

Will Firefox ever support WebKit?

I'm using Sencha Touch, a JS framework based on WebKit. It works in nearly all other browsers, but Firefox. Will FF ever support WebKit?

I doubt it. Mozilla uses Gecko, and I doubt if that will change.

Will the iPhone support Adobe Flash or Apollo?

I am an Adobe Flash Designer / Developer and was wondering if Apple's new iPhone will support Adobe Flash or Apollo applications? I would have assumed since it is running OS X and a full version of the Safari browser - it would - but I've heard just the opposite.
I am a long time Apple supporter and have looked forward to this long awaited phone.

I don't know the answer to your question, but i was reading this earlier, maybe it will be of some help

When will XML Publisher Support Adobe 7 format?

I am wondering what version of XML Publisher is slated to support Adobe 7 Format?

Hi Tim
We have no immediate plans to support the designer forms, the specification is huge and will take time to implement. I understand its a tad expensive compared to Acrobat too.

Will Exchange ever support sending mail from a secondary smtp address?

Most here probably know this but a quick recap:
User has PrimarySMTP address of [email protected] and secondary SMTP of
[email protected] In Outlook, if you set the secondary SMTP address in the "From" field, Exchange will throw an "undeliverable" error stating you're not authorized to send mail as
this user. I know there's
3rd party tools that can help you with this, and ways to circumvent this (using extra accounts or distrigroups) but it's actually really annoying. I've been involved with a lot of companies with different brands (and a domain for each brand) and
who want to communicate with the outside world using these different brandnames. One salesmanager could be involved with different brands and right now you'll have to create a new account or group for each and every brand/domainname.
With every new Exchange one of the first things I check if this behaviour has changed.. Will this ever be implemented? Is there anyone here that could shed some light on that? Is there a reason why this does not change?
Kind regards,
Remco Roxs

Will Aperture EVER support my camera's RAW?

I own a Leica D-Lux 2 (same as the Panasonic LX1 with a different exterior) and am crushed that 10.4.4 didn't bring support for its RAW files. I wrote feedback to Apple the day after Aperture was released requesting support but they didn't listen to me!
The worst part is not knowing if I'm waiting in vain—if Apple will never support my camera, I'd abandon Aperture now. Arrrrggghhhh....

Also the missing support for DNG - which like PDF
will become the standard - is a great disappointment.
I feel Adobe has put much more work, effort and
thought into their new "beta" product. I will go for
this, seems much safer in the long run.
DNG is supported in Apple's products and Adobe's products but only if the particular camera's RAW file is supported. In other words, If Adobe doesn't support your particular camera's RAW file, then you can't convert it to a DNG. If Apple doesn't' support you particular camera's RAW file, then you can't use the converted file.
But why convert your file into a DNG if your computer supports a particular cameras RAW file?
The short answer to that question is for long term storage and future file access. If your cameras manufacturer drops support for older cameras (as Canon and Contax have done), will you be able to access that file, say 20 years from now? DNG is one answer to that question. For other information on the subject you can visit this website - http://www.openraw.org/
DNG is file format created by Adobe to help standardize the output of cameras. What this means is that Adobe is trying to get all the camera manufactures to agree to build into their cameras output support for a standardized file format. Just as a camera can convert it's RAW information into JPEG or TIFF files, Adobe would like them to convert the RAW information into a DNG file.
Every time a new parameter is added to your camera's sensor or a manufacturer adds a new sensor, the parameters for the RAW file change and software vendors (Apple, Adobe, etc.) need to update their products in order to support the changed RAW file. As you can imagine this is a real drain on resources and takes time. Just imagine trying to keep up with all the different cameras on the market, this has got to be a real nightmare!
So, if you want DNG support, the best thing to do is to contact the manufacturer of your favorite camera gear and ask them to add DNG output to the list of file formats that their cameras can output. Make sure that you let them know that you, as working professional who actually creates and owns the file/image, find it very unprofessional, unethical and not at all conducive to a professional business that they would actually create a proprietary file that was inaccessible to you and those that you license the file/image to.
If you want to help speed up the process of having Apple add a particular cameras RAW file to it's list of files that it can read, let the manufacturer of your favorite camera gear know that you would like them to allow Apple access to the proprietary (i.e. secret) information that enables Apple to build real support for their cameras into it's products.
