Christ, what next?! Apple employee scratches his own arse?

I've got to ask Carl, why do you insist on posting every single tiny bit of Apple news? And before you say I don't have to read it, a thread already exists about iOS5. Any other thread duplications would be deleted...

What? Have you got problems bud?

If it wasn't for Carl I certainly wouldn't know when most updates are available or what to do with them. The guy does nothing but help people, and I for one know that I don't need to worry at all, when it comes to any problems with apple products etc, cos Carl is there to help me out.

It's great knowing that any apple updates are posted on forum by Carl, its one of the internet sites i visit the most, and I don't have to search elsewhere.

If you don't like Carl helping others that's fine, but please don't spoil it for others.

It's nothing personal, there just seems to be an emergence of duplicate threads. Like I said, there is already an iOS5 thread, so why start another?

Although I am a Mac user I'm not particularly interested in the threads most of the time. I've sat in front of the damned things most of my life, so reading about incremental OS upgrades is the last thing I want to see when I'm getting my car fix :grin:

Anyone put ios 5 on a 3GS?  Does the phone run slower?

There is a small lag, but you can definitely live with it. The internet loading is quicker as well.

....All you have to do, my friend, is not read any threads with Mac in its title and unsubscribe from this thread. Actually, does this site offer an option to unsubscribe from specific threads? - If not, it should do!

On topic, like Mac OS 10.7, I'm waiting for things to settle down and, most importantly, for some third-party developers to catch up. I don't need what iCloud has to offer as I don't network with other people. Keep up the good work, Carl - It's appreciated.

This is not just an iOS 5 thread though as per the title :stupid:

So i don't see what your problem is apart from that it must be Jap flag week and your a little hormonal  :grin:

iCloud isn't about networking. It's about being able to sync all your contacts/calendars and info between your macs/ iDevices. If you have an iPhone and a few macs it is very very handy. :-)

I read the forum, my friend, via the Show Unread Posts page. Like I said, I don't mind Mac-related posts (though there are rather a lot of them), it's more when topics are covered in multiple threads. It doesn't make sense, neither for people who are uninterested, or for people who want to keep up-to-date with the information.

You'll have to explain that because I really don't know what you're talking about...

If you have an issue with something i have written fine BUT make it a genuine issue and not a personal preference.

You have stated that i should have just put this info in the iOS 5 thread. Well i put some of it in regarding iOS 5 but OS X 10.7.2 and Aperture 3 aren't available as part of iOS 5 last i looked. So they would be pretty pointless in there and would get lost. So i decided to collectively post the relevant information about all the latest updates and what people needed to be wary of in one thread.

This is a Random chat section. I read the forum via the show unread posts link. If something is of no interest to me then i don't read it. Simples. I don't go in every thread trying to be sarcastic just because it's not something i want to read.

You say i keep posting everything about Apple. Well if you can list all the posts i have done in the last 6 months about Apple, other than software updates then i shall be intrigued. To my mind i did 2. One was a link to a rumour round up for the proposed iPhone 5 and one was about Steve Job's autobiography sales going through the roof.

You are not a Moderator or an Admin on here. None of the mods have complained at any of the threads i have started. Some, as you can see from a few replies in this thread, find the information useful. So i don't see what i am doing wrong.

Now I'm not particularly fussed what you think. If you have a problem with something i write then either PM me or report it to a Moderator and don't clog up what will be a useful thread to others.

Christ, what next?! Apple employee scratches his own arse?

Like I said Carl, this isn't personal, but for me this forum is kind of losing it's identity as a car forum, largely because of the technology related threads.

In an ideal world we'd have a separate board for that kind of thing and under your user preferences you'd be able to opt-in or out.

Anyway, enough said on the subject. Carry on :happy2:

We're all human and have different/varying interests. But if we have a common interest in cars, we're bound to have common interests in other things. I see nothing wrong with talking about cameras, photography etc.

Just be happy we've managed to avoid an Apple subforum!  :grin:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

....No, you're right, Rich. I just have one Mac (which I keep up to date) and one iPad which is primarily used as a control surface for Logic and virtual instruments and no email and very little else <-- Says he who has just loaded a few pics on it to show off when away from home and who keeps his calendar on it for obvious reasons.

Having iCloud sync is fine but it already auto syncs when I connect. I don't want everything syncing whether I want it to or not.

Nuff said probably, but isn't the Random Chat section for just that? - Random Chat about anything and everything. It's where we find we have other things in common. Which reminds me I ought to post some more pics in VAG Babes.
