The response says:
”It can take a few extra minutes to boot into safe mode. Your screen may flash or flicker while in safe mode. Those behaviors are expected.”
This is acceptable to Apple? I don’t think it should be. If this is the standard that Apple is going to expect us to live with, than they need to come down in the price of their products by hundreds if not thousands of dollars that they charge their customers.
I can see why Apple is getting some negativity. They apparently do not give a **** what they sell us as long as they keep getting paid millions upon millions of dollars worldwide. I would be curious to know just how many hours are spent addressing issues that were known would be problematic for the purchaser prior to the sale of the products.
If the issues were not known, then why not?
If 🍏 was still operating out of a garage while they tried to make a decent product, this would make a certain amount of sense and could possibly have been forgiven if addressed and fixed appropriately or a new product issued in replace of a product with the issues I have been reading as I research for the products I need to fulfill a project I want to implement. I was told that the Apple product as opposed to PC product was the way to go, especially for photography. My own experiences with Apples products, combined with those of the people who have taken time to ask for support regarding their issues and problems with their own products, leaves me to think that Apple is not the place to sink all my money into in order to accomplish my goals. It appears that their products, support, and helpfulness, is so below par as to be totally unacceptable. I am both surprised and saddened to learn just how much the proverbial wool has been pulled over our eyes by a company that has a totally different reputation perpetuated by the company themselves and the people earning commissions from the sales of their defective products.
A company that continues to run successfully, based solely on the then well deserved reputation of its products. Products that were developed only after long arduous hours of time and energy, and quality control backed by terrific customer service, is just wrong. To continue to sell subpar items to the unsuspecting world is beyond wrong and needs to be stopped.
Apple needs to clean up their act, control the customer service provided by the authorized companies that represent the Apple brand, and produce less products that they should be ashamed of and work on producing better products to their faithful customers.
I, for one, am not impressed with what I have seen thus far and refuse to continue to support their actions, or lack thereof. Apple has proven to me to be more interested in the almighty dollar than the in the best interest of their clients. These companies need to be stopped once and for all. They are a prime example of the rich getting richer, while the poor pay them to get and stay there on the garbage they sell us.
