iApp Updates Coming: iMovie, iTunes, iPhoto and New App?
- Thread starter MacRumors
- Start date
- Sort by reaction score
iWorks - no brainer, and the single biggest lack.
iDVD update - c'mon, how about supporting progressive scan? The current one really doesn't look very good, apologetists aside, when compared to the competition.
iPhoto - simply handling bigger albums would be good, although the idea of including RAW support would truly rock. Especially if/when I pick up that 300D for Christmas.
Just that would be fine by me.

The Exandable sub folders and Rendezvous photo sharing support are the two things I've been waiting for in iPhoto. Oh, and some kind of speed improvement. Maybe a view with a fixed thumbnail size. Sure you couldn't zoom in and out, but that just really slows it down compared to similar applications.
Lots of Appleworks talk
Remember folks...Appleworks comes on just about every machine Apple is selling to schools. It is the program of choice for most teachers and it's FREE. The last major update brought the Presentation module which is horrible.
Listen up Apple. How about slimming down Keynote to some version that is useable in Appleworks. If you did that it would be in my lesson plans the next day.

users on iPod
That is the other thing I would love, the ability to have say 3 users use one iPod, maybe the same three computers that are allowed to play itunes music store songs. But then my wife and I could share one iPod.
Lots of logistical things to work out, but could be doable. Then again, I'm sure Apple would rather just send me two iPods. 🙂

Try using a program called CDFinder. It allows you to catalog your CDs and they are still searchable. You can also make contact sheets of your CDs to make it easier to find exactly the picture you want.

Please iTMS Europe!!!!! Please!!!😀 😎 🙂
Hopefully the UK is part of the iPhoto improvements too!
This intrigues me. No-one else has yet commented but this sounds like iTMS may be here sooner than expected?

How about a version of iDVD that works with external/non-superdrive DVD-R's!!!
It has always bothered me that I can use all the iApps but that one without buying a new computer.

I have to think this is the correct guess. Word compatibility and PDF output are already there, all they need is some decent layout capabilities. Could they take parts from Open Office - not the whole bloated mess, just parts.
Or would they fix up what they have already, maybe add in a junior version of filemaker (iChart :^). They get inject some steroids into Mail and iCal.
Most of it is already there.
Think about it. How many people buy Office X mostly for Word thinking the other stuff _might_ come in handy?
The new iApp is is going to be a DVD archive / tv recorder tool that can also play back over 802.11e to a new box that sits under your TV. Also you will be able to record onto your mac via the new box, oh and an updated new 802.11e Airport.

I agree...
Hopefully those of us living outside the USA will be able to get iPhoto albums!!
Apple's biggest market maybe the USA, but they HAVE to realise we exist too!!

I'm hoping for an iToaster -- a 2" thick aluminum kitchen appliance with glowing Apple logo.
A 3" model would allow for bagels.

Not so sure
Edit: Oops, wrong iApp!
What's the business case for iChat AV for Windows? Sell more iSights? Apple ported iTunes to Windows to sell more $300 iPods, not more .99 songs. Plus, iChat would be hard sell to Windows users, since it's pretty ordinary in terms of functionality among IM apps, especially on the Windows side, where many more options exist.

other iPhoto improvements
An absolutely essential improvement to iPhoto would be adding support for those short .mpgs which most cameras produce nowadays. Annoying to have to remember to import them by hand after an iPhoto import before deleting the card.
Also maybe some kind of bluetooth/isync mms function in iPhoto. To send iphotos automatically to my T610 for mms use would be great!

Re: Not so sure
iChat AV has to come out for Windows or some Windows program have to accept iChat. Unlike most apps, the idea about chatting to have as many on board as possible, it would suck if I only can do video chats with Mac users.
Didn't Steve say something about this being integrated into the actual computer? Accompanied with visually oriented iApp for darkness control?
I think it all starting in the dot com boom when "i" and "e" everything was popular. Now it is showing it's age and I hope they move away from it. Thank god I am not using iSafari and iKeynote.
I don't think it's a bad idea to use those names, they still have some years in them.
The iApps are for the regular comsumers and probably a very good selling point for all the PC zombies looking to switch to Macs. The names work.
At least Apple don't use cyber in any of their names. 😀
