Will this ever happen

will Apple ever make it so us canadians can get movies and tv on our ipod's because not being able to do this makes me angry at america for getting better things then canada

From experience in the electronics industry it is easier to get approval for new products in the United States. My company could get the FCC approval twice as fast as some countries and other countries would not even consider it for their country until it was approved in the USA first. Goofy but true.

  • I restarted my mac and many apps and files disappeared. It's like it booted to a state several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?

    It's like it booted to a state it was in several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?
    The files on my desktop are not the ones that were there when I shut down. It's like it's gone back in time.
    My display's power supply got fried (I think) in a power outage so I bought a new one. However, every time I restart the display usually stays black. I have found I need to keep rebooting until it kicks in and starts working. I unplug everything, wait a while (a few minutes to overnight) and try booting again.
    This last time the display finally came on but I'm faced with this problem. I used to use time machine, but I deleted everything and disabled it a couple months ago or more so I'm at aloss as to why the mac is booting into the state it was in sevearl months ago.
    What could I have done to cause this? Has this ever happened to anyone else and is there a solution?
    Note: I did a search for a file I knew was created today. I found it and it showed that it was a file I had saved on the desktop this morning--even though that file's icon is not appearing on the desktop now.
    I did a search for photoshop and saw my CS5 version listed.
    However, I did a couple more searches and these files no longer appear in the search. I don't know if they're there or not. This is bizarre!
    I'm on a Mac Pro, 10.6.2.

    Thanks for the obvious question. I mean it. The very same thought came to me this morning and, sure enough, I had booted into another drive--my old one that, of course, had the old desktop, etc.
    It didn't dawn on me that this was the case since I hadn't set it as a boot drive but I guess in the course of all the restarts I did, it got switched.
    I'm back to normal again.

    If you have Apple care and the problem occured without misuse on your part ... it can be replaced without charge.

    my mobile me will also download my pop mail will this also happen with icloud?
    When I read the information it seems to say it will then it won't

    This facility is not available in iCloud. Before migrating you should turn it off in MobileMe as otherwise you may find it continues to operate in iCloud for a time (this is effectively a bug) with no way of turning it off since it isn't supposed to the there.

  • Help...Have This Ever Happened to you???

    My Ipod Wont Show A Charge and it wont cut on i cant restart it or anything...if thi ever happened to you can you give me some advice and let me know how i can fix it....or even if it didnt happen to you can u please try to help still!!!

    The battery may be dead, first connect it to your PC or a wall charger (If you have one) and let it stay connected for anywhere from 30 min to a hour or 2. Sometimes when the battery is dead it takes this long for it to get enough of a charge to even turn on.
    If charging in on a Desktop PC with USB make sure the PC doesn't go into a "Sleep" mode. Of connecting it to a laptop make sure it does not go into "Sleep" mode, stays open (You don't close the screen down onto the keyboard) AND that the laptop is connected to its AD adapter
    Also when trying to turn it on, make sure the "Hold" switch at top is off (Is not showing Orange and IS showing White)

  • CD quality recording on 4G - will it ever happen?

    Last year I bought a Griffin iTalk with the expectation of at least having decent mono quality recordings, but was sadly disappointed.
    My understanding was that this "feature" existed because Apple crippled the quality for copyright reasons.
    Now that the 5G has presumably relaxed the copyright poblems, and now provides good quality recording as part of the operating system, will Apple ever release a firmware update of older iPods (like mine) to remove the crippled feature (since it's only an OS restriction--the Linux version is reported to have proved that the hardware is up to the specs of higher bitrates).
    Any one at Apple able to shed some light on progress? My 4G is still under a year old--surely this feature request is still a possibility for current users?
    iPod 4G   Windows XP Pro  

    Hi Jodiemcneill,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You can get CD quality recording on your iPod using a different operating system. Here are step-by-step instructions for installing iPL (iPod Linux) on a 4G iPod. Your "microphone" is your left earbud. You cannot monitor your recordings. Your earbud functions as a mic only while you record. Full instructions are found on the iPod Lounge and iPod Linux sites.
    This procedure is ONLY for those with a 4g iPod on a Mac.
    Use this procedure at your own risk.
    Okay, for easy updating, here's what you do:
    1. Go to http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/27660 and download the 4g ipod linux installer
    2. If you installed ipod linux already, DO NOT CLICK ON IT! if you don't have it, install it now.
    3. Go to http://ipodlinux.org/builds/
    4. Go to bottom and download both the most recent podzilla AND kernel with the icon that has the two arrows pointing toward each other.
    5. Unzip them
    6. Rename the podzilla one to JUST "podzilla" NO DATE!
    7. Rename the kernel one to JUST "kernel.bin" if it isnt already. NO DATE!
    8. Double-click on the 4g iPod Linux installer you just downloaded in step one.
    9. Click on your iPod on the list.
    10. In the drop down menu, click on update files.
    11. Click next.
    12. Check the update podzilla check box.
    13. Click on the "Browse..." button and locate the podzilla file.
    14. Check the "Update kernel" check box.
    15. Click on the "Browse..." button and locate the kernel.bin file.
    16. Click "Update."
    17. Wait for it to finish
    18. Boot into your up-to-date iPod Linux!
    19. Enjoy.
    You'll have to adjust the contrast in the preferences to read the screen. To restore your Apple software, use your install disks and update to current state.
    Good Luck. I hope this helps.

  • The "Mail" icon App on my iphone just disappeared.  I've reset the phone, tried troubleshooting other ways.  Any clues on what to do. Has this ever happened to anyone else?

    The "Mail" icon App on my iphone 3G just disappeared!  I've reset the phone, checked settings.  I can still access the internet through Safari, but the entire "Mail" icon is gone!  Vanished into thin air in a matter of seconds!  Has anyone ever had this happen?  Any suggestions as to what to do?

    You can't delete it.  Look on all your screens and inside all your folders.  If you still can't find it go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.  This will restore the home screen to its original configuration but may move other apps around to do so.

  • Has this ever happened to you? My ipod screen in flashing a white but not a solid white but its getting pretty bad now any help?

    Screen will flash a white screen i can still use my ipod but the screen flashes. Before it was just a little bit but now its getting ot be all the time any one know how to fix it or a solution?

    If it happens again and the reset (home + power buttons) doesn't work, just let the battery drain; you'll know when the screen shuts off. Charge it back up and it should be fine. Frankly, I'm surprised this worked for you. Usually I hear people with this problem say that holding both buttons doesn't work, and they have to do the battery drain.
    If the issue is incurable next time, you have a one-year warranty from the date of purchase.

  • Because of the trial version of Photoshop CC my laptop crashes, will this also happen with the "real" version?

    Hi everybody,
    Before I'm going to install Photoshop CC, I decided to install the trial version first. But my laptop became very slowly after that and even crashed ones.
    I really liked working with Photoshop CC, but I'm afraid that this will happen with the real version as well.
    Do you think it will?
    Thank you for your answer!

  • Multiple hardware in Logic?  Will it ever happen again?

    I was just wondering if anyone out there has heard if Logic will be supporting multiple hardware boxes ever again.
    For instance, you can have two MOTU 896's hooked up so you can have 32 inputs (using the ADAT inputs) at the same time. From what I've researched, it's a limitation of Core Audio and it was rumored that Apple was going to address it in OS 10.4 - well, maybe 10.5?
    Anyone got anything to share?

    It is a pain in he proverbial,but it's for the best,ultimately.PCI-Express is far superior. I'm really not prepared to fork out £1200 for a Magma breakout box. Yes,Wormhole I'm aware of,and am looking at.I expect it to work OK. This might be the time fot me to ditch the MOTU's (which I was thinking of doing),and move over to Apogees and something like Dangerous for my analogue i/o's. I use a Firewire Powercore and is terrible,in terms of reliability.I frequently experience initialisation failures and whatever with it. The plugins are good,but it inhales sharply, reliabilitywise. You can't use the word s**k as a disparagement on this forum, apparently.Sad.
    Thanks for the input!

  • MST Support for MacBook Pro Retina Late 2013 - DisplayPort 1.2 - Will it ever happen? (with sources)

    So back in October, I purchased a brand new Macbook Pro Retina (MBPr), fully loaded with top of the line specs.  I was soooo excited to have Thunderbolt 2 tech which Intel AND Apple describes as having DisplayPort 1.2a compatibility - which up to this point is unfortunately NOT the case.  The point of the information/questions and requests in this article is to engage a conversation about the issues of not having MST support after Apple falsely mislead their consumers to think otherwise - especially when it is clear the MBPr is capable.  Please read on...
    Apple advertises that the Thunderbolt 2 ports on BOTH the MBPr and the new Mac Pro (NMP) will have 4K Display support with the famed 20gb/sec Ports (DisplayPort 1.2 only requires a little above 17gb/sec).  Now that the 10.9.1 update has been released, we have failed to see MST or Multi-Stream Transport enabled on the MBPr Late 2013.  Now, as for the New Mac Pro- it DOES have MST enabled in 10.9.1 with the AMD GPUs.  For all of you out there that's questioning what this means, short answer is basically the Mac Pro will be able to power a 4K Monitor at 60Hz through the Thunderbolt 2 Port but the New MBPr is stuck with only HDMI 1.4 support which tops out at 4K 30Hz. 30Hz is unacceptable for anything but movies or a photo slideshow.  At 30Hz the cursor will jump across the screen, eliminating any of the benefits of 4K.
    BUT it gets worse...
    Apple can be seen advertising that the new MBPr 15" model can power a 4K monitor THROUGH the Thunderbolt 2 Port here: http://www.apple.com/thunderbolt - This article quotes the following:
    "Now with Thunderbolt 2 built into the new Mac Pro and MacBook Pro with Retina display, you can connect the latest 4K desktop displays and get double the bandwidth for your peripherals. And the two generations of Thunderbolt technology are compatible with each other."
    Does this not let the consumer assume that the newest MBPr will be able to drive a 4K display through the Thunderbolt 2 Port?  I would say yes it does, but at the time I wrote this, the TB2 Ports can't power a 4K display because, as previously stated, MST is disabled in Mavericks for the 15" MBPr Late 2013.
    NOW, later on Apple posted the following article on 4K support here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6008
    4K support on the MacBook Pro (Retina, Late 2013)
    MacBook Pro supports 4K displays and Ultra HD TVs at the following resolutions and refresh rates with the built-in HDMI port:
    3840 x 2160 at 30 Hz refresh rate
    4096 x 2160 at 24 Hz refresh rate (mirroring is not supported at this resolution)
    In the article above the New Mac Pro is listed as having support for a 4K Display with the Thunderbolt 2 Port (or MST DisplayPort 1.2a Technology) at 60Hz with no problem.  This leads myself and many others to believe that MST will NEVER be enabled on the newest MacBook Pro Retina with Nvidia GPUs. Yes, 4K IS supported but ONLY through the HDMI 1.4 port, which has the limitation of only 30hz.  This two-faced advertising is extremely upsetting to a LOT of people, including myself.
    Interestingly enough, THIS IS NOT a hardware issue.  If one ventures into Windows 8.1 via Bootcamp and connects a 4K Display via the Thunderbolt 2 (or through DP1.2) Port, the Display registers at 60Hz, thus proving that the Thundberbolt 2 Hub Controller is completely capable of MST DisplayPort functionality.  Clearly this a driver issue with Apple, Nvidia or Intel or any combination.  What Apple has done here is forcing any professional that desires stable and clear 4K technology through their MacBook Pro Retina to do so only using Windows 8.1 on their own machines!  Definitely an oxymoron if you ask me...
    Later on when the Mac Pro was ready for ordering, Apple placed the Sharp PN-K321 as a compatible option for a 4K Display.  On the Store page featuring the (over three thousand dollar) Sharp 4K display, located here http://store.apple.com/us/product/HD971LL/A/sharp-32-pn-k321-4k-ultra-hd-led-mon itor?fnode=53 Apple states the following:
    "Note that 4K DisplayPort operation is only compatible with the new Mac Pro (Late 2013)."
    All of that being said, and I'm terribly sorry for my wordy ranting...
    This brings me to a final two requests to ANYONE reading this post:
    a) Has anyone working with the new 10.9.2 Beta Update seen evidence that DisplayPort 1.2 capabilities will be enabled for the new MacBook Pro Retina (Nvidia 750M) with the promised "Graphics Driver Updates" within the next Mavericks update?
    and
    b) To others that purchased or were/are thinking of purchasing a new MacBook Pro Retina with TB2 Ports: If you are just as upset as me about this crushing blow to consumers that just purchased a $3,000 laptop that were promised something that wasn't delivered - I urge you please, write to Apple and let them know they are making a mistake.  You can do this though the support page or through http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Thank you for your precious time, and if anyone has anything to contribute to this issue, please jump in....

    GOOD NEWS!
    The Mavericks 10.9.3 update adds official support for Thunderbolt 2, 4K!
    I'm not sure if you will be able to daisy chain anything to the 4K display.  I've read that the design of Thunderbolt 2 includes support for DisplayPort 1.2 multi-stream (MST), which allows this type of daisy chaining with 4K, but we don't know if Apple has this supported on it's machines.  Apparently it's been buggy in development because the graphics driver needs to work correctly with the Thunderbolt 2 host controller.  I'm sure they will work it out if they haven't already.
    The above is all via found information on this topic, but you can follow some more discussion here:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1713876
    One more note on Thunderbolt worth sharing: always keep your fastest peripherals closer to the computer in the chain. If you have a TB1 device directly connected to the computer, anything further down the chain will be limited to TB1 speed/capability regardless of it's native speed.  Always connect TB2 devices first, and save anything TB1 for the end of the chain.

  • HT201272 Has this ever happened 2 u?. I downloaded several albu ms after paying for them and they all didn"t come out or only part of a song came out.

    have u ever had downloads of music to your computer not come out after downloading was complete?

    I got it out!
    Here is how.
    None of the Apple-suggested ways worked. However, before totally giving up I started Roxio Popcorn and pressed the big eject button on it. It came out effortlessly!
    So, I thought "Weird..."
    I put the CD back in and reproduced my original problem. I got it out just as easily using Roxio Popcorn Eject feature.
    So, I then thought "Maybe it is the disk?" There is nothing wrong with the disk as far as I can tell. It is perfectly round, has a smooth label-side surface. It is not even a label, it is a standard software install disk you buy in stores.
    I inserted a different disk. The mini mounted it, I browsed it, and then ejected it by dragging it to trash. Worked fine.
    I tried a few other disks.
    The drive seems to work fine.
    Maybe that CD is cursed, I dunno. I tried that disk in my PowerBook and it works fine there.
    Who knows ?
    I am still backing up my hard drive as I type this message in case I need to take it to the store.

  • Forms 6i and XP - will it ever happen

    Anyone in Oracle care to give an update on the promised release of Forms 6i for XP?

    We have not yet stated which patchset will contain the XP certification. Whoever told you it was in patchset 12 was incorrect. The official statement can be found on Metalink, in the certification section. (Look up Forms 6i on XP).

  • Firefox Beta 4 does not seem to be supported on my iBook G4 architecture, will this ever be supported, or do I need to leave Mozilla?

    This will be a make or break feature for me, I do not intend to abandon my Power PC based Mac machines, so need a browser that is supported on them, and also provides at least minimal support for my Microsoft based PC (kept for those few applications that will not run on the Mac OS X systems).

    Firefox 4 will require an Intel Mac. There is a third-party version being developed that will work on PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
