  • Craig Federighi answers complaint about why iOS auto-update doesn't work

    So I have the same issue, I have auto update enabled but I can’t ever get the update. I’ll wait a couple of days) still no update then I’ll just manually update. Most times if I see there’s a new update out there because of an article on AppleInsider I just do the update right away anymore.

  • Wanton in-app purchases cost Alberta father thousands of dollars

    She gives Canadians a bad name. Apple sends you emails and tell you how much you spend. They don’t hide it so she must not be putting her eyes to good use. I can’t understand such addiction. It’s not Apple’s fault she can’t spend her money wisely. 
    Well I know of no Canadians personally so hopefully not all are as bad. She’s 18 I see no mention of any mental disorder other than people here wanting to make excuses for her. Like another poster said you get a monthly statement sent right to your appleID email account so if no one chooses to view that, that’s on them. I figured this would be a toddler thing but at 18 Apple should have capitulated and told just told dad nothing they can do because here it is in black and white in the TOS.

  • Epic vs. Apple takes new turn as 34 US states & DOJ side with 'Fortnite' maker

    Some people STILL want to cry "get an android if you don't like it" when they don't realize the the Playstore has the same issue and these states are going to apply any possible regulation to BOTH stores. Just fanboys thru and thru. Only cry about regulation when it comes to Apple.

    What would you say if your local gas station wasn't regulated? "Just use electric cars if you don't like the outrageous prices gas station owners would surely raise their prices to, or good old fashioned horses!"
    And you are STILL truly clueless. There are regulations to operating a gas station but gas stations prices are not regulated. Gas stations to not form a monopoly. If their prices were regulated, all the gas stations would HAVE to charge about the same price. The reason why all local gas stations seems to charge about the same price is because of competition. If it takes only a few minutes for drivers to find another local gas station that charges $.05 less per gallon, nothing is stopping them from getting gas at the cheaper station. So there's a limit to how much a gas station can charge because of nearby competition, not because prices are regulated. If anything, regulation decreases competition.

    Gas stations that have a mini mart or sell lottery tickets, often sell their gas a little cheaper because it attracts customers to their stations. Gas stations with mini mart makes more profit from selling coffee, lottery tickets, potato chips, candy, hotdogs and other snacks, than from selling gas. Gas stations make average profit of $.02 on a gallon of gas. They can make over $1.00 profit from a large soda. 

    And guess what, consumers that are fed up with high gas prices are buying electric or hybrid cars.  

    Plus, it's not the consumer that are crying about the high prices of apps. Over 70% of the apps on both Apple and Android are free. And it's not the small developers that are crying about the 15% commission. It seems that the biggest cry babies are the multi-million or multi-billion developers that are already making obscene profits selling virtual goods. Obscene profits that they wouldn't be making, if it weren't for Apple iOS or Google Android.    

    Plus this little tidbit: 

    Over 100 million Android phones hit with malicious apps that steal your money — what to do

    That is exactly why I do not have an iPhone. Who the heck needs this crap.

    Who wants an android piece of crap anyway? I just saw they were 105 million android phones affected by some data scam. 
    We see who side you are on and that’s fine and dandy but who wants their iPhones to be attacked my malware ransom ware and whatever other kind of virus at IPhone users and then the idiots crying fir side loading will of course be standing in line with their lawyer wanting to sue Apple for allowing malware into their iPhones.

  • Dutch regulators rule Apple must make App Store changes before Jan. 15

    Still trying to understand how Apple’s payment system is anti-competitive. Costco only allows Visa, no other credit cards allowed. Isn’t that anti-competitive? Apple needs to file suit against all these countries, including the US, for baseless suits along with discriminatory actions, picking and choosing who to sue. 

    It’s like also how Walmart does not allow anything except Walmart pay but not Apple Google or Samsung pay. Or on Amazon website you can use Amazon pay but none of the above.
