Tell Apple what you don't like at Apple - Feedback

(Someone suggested sending an email to tcook@apple.com but I'm not sure what that would get you...)

The new notification center leaves a lot to be desired. How about a list of the next 5 items on my calendar, whatever and whenever they may be? Is that so hard?

Other than that, I'm starting to get used to iOS 7, I dislike it less than I did when it first came out.

Just follow the settings adjustments recommended by any one of the tech web sites - gets rid of the 3d effects, improves contrast, increases text size yada yada yada.

Job done - and the battery lasts longer too.

But the NYPD wants you to upgrade! You wouldn't want to upset them now would you?

That sounds specific to your phone. Can you reset and reinstall? My iTune is fine, no issues at all.

Mine was fine too until I "upgraded" to IOS7. And doing so has also brought back several tunes I had long ago deleted.

Sure you don't have "show all music" turned on?

I haven't touched iTunes on my computer for well over a month before I went to IOS7.

Clearly it's your fault, Rick. It's something you did wrong.

There's no possible way Apple could have screwed anything up.

In iOS 7, Settings, Music, check that "Show All Music" is turned OFF.

I don't really mind that aspect. Actually found a few songs I kind of missed and like having back. It's when the controls on my music freeze and I have to do a hard reboot to make them work again. Or when the display goes from the song I'm listening to to showing all album covers with no way to go back or forward without another hard reboot.

Again, that isn't normal, so you should re-install. I would.

Am I the only person who is NOT on Snow Leopard already? iTunes wont even acknowledge my phone until I upgrade the OS from 10.5.8. It's only $20 for the disc and it looks like I can go directly from 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard and then do the 10.6.8 patch. Do I then need to install the iTunes 11.1 to get my phone to sync again, or is it going to work with the 10.6.8 upgrade?

just in case anyone else has the same issue I had with the iOS7 upgrade:

Upgraded from OS 10.5.8 to 10.6.8 by ordering the Snow Leopard install DVD from Apple for $20. Did the 10.6.8 patch today after the install. Downloaded and installed iTunes 11.1 after that. I can finally sync my iPhone again.

Just tried to sync my iPhone 5 and macpro and now getting an unknown error and the phone won't sync. This is not good. Never happened before and I have sync'd since installing the ios7 update. Any recommendations.

I'm running 10.4.11 and all is well. I think.

I recently ditched my iphone in favour of a blackberry z10. It's SO much better. The iphone is a toy. The blackberry is a multifunctional device that actually works.

Blackberry won't be around much longer. Company will likely be gone in half a year. Don't know how devices and network will be supported.
