You are right, the store view is not mandatory, my apologies. so let's start it differently: listen to that user here: http://techland.time.com/2012/12/04/three-things-apple-didnt-get-right-in-itunes-11/ "Seems everyone is just looking at the music stuff. How about the fact you must use iTunes to sync your devices for contacts, pictures etc. That part has been ignored by Apple and is getting worse. Constant errors telling you that a session cannot be estabished to the device when in fact it has. The backups are always failing just to name a few items either not working or very poorly designed. Apple either needs to create a seperate app for syncing devices or fix this one."You are not really asking as an OSX expert, are you? iTunes became a huge advertising bazaar, unfortunately it's the mandatory single point of contact with any iOS device, call it improvement, I have another opinion, and i am not alone.Alan Baker
Present one. I use iTunes to sync my iPhone and iPad, and I never see any ads.
I could't have said it better, i'd just add that: Apple won't do that: their business model is to get you into their shop at every opportunity. The climax: when you *log off the shop* from anywhere, it will default you to the shop view.

Killing a start button
This is not an example of Apple software doing "the opposite" of improving.
Of Apple? I did not even know they had a Start button!
Precisely. I asked for list of ways that Apple's software has done the opposite of improve and you listed the start button.
Really? Give some examples."Laszlo Lebrun
Apple software, but also Microsoft and Canonical.
You got the examples you have been asking for: from Apple, Microsoft and Canonical, just to be objective, isn't it?
Just because I believe that you are not a stubborned person, and you are able to consider the universe outside Apple as well? Am I wrong? My statement was not exclusively criticizing Apple. You should at least acknowledge that.Hmm you appear to have overlooked the half of my sentence so let's reintroduce it for you: ...especially with Apple software, but also Microsoft and Canonical.Alan Baker
And why do you imagine that I would be interested in anything but examples of how APPLE's software has done the opposite of improve; examples you've yet to actually give, BTW.
Go figure.Alan BakerLaszlo LebrunLaszlo LebrunAlan Baker
Stopping support for hardware etc...
Which has nothing to do with whether or not the software has improved.
Oh! You could have worked for Apple! Don't you hear all the complaints?
How does that address what I said?

but you know that do you, you just have been asking to troll isn't it?

Where did I claim that?Alan BakerLaszlo LebrunAlan BakerLaszlo Lebrunsince Apple call them "smart mailboxes".Alan Baker
What Sandman or the OP called them is irrelevant to the fact that the actual SOFTWARE only calls them "smart mailboxes".
To that fact, sure. To our discussion not.
Try again. Use English.
So just again for you: If a long thread one only speaks of "smart folders" that suddenly become "smart mailboxes" that might not be relevant "to the fact that the actual SOFTWARE only calls them smart mailboxes". This fact is objective and nothing influences it.
Right. Hence your claim that the software was inconsistent is nonsense.
Oh really? Just wondering, you must have a very special newsreader, not only distorting Unicode but even changing the sense of statements.Laszlo LebrunAlan Baker
With respect to a discussion, it makes well a difference if the smart folders, that some were claiming to be the solution, are in fact called smart mailboxes in the software.
Right. But you claimed the software was internally inconsistent on this.
Oh really? Can't believe my own eyes, I did? -- One computer and three operating systems, not the other way round. One wife and many hotels, not the other way round ! ;-)Laszlo LebrunAlan Baker
"so logically one would in the help search for "smart folders", which returns nothing since Apple call them "smart mailboxes".
That was the very point of Sandyflea pretending to have substantiated his claim while he did only throw a *wrong* word in the discussion.
You tried to use the fact that Jonas used the wrong term to pretend the SOFTWARE was worse in some way.
