Same stupid stuff is still going on as of May 11th. No warning from Apple...
A family member downloaded an App and unwittingly screwed up my security questions and the 'Send reset security info email to' address.
SO, now I'm stuck with a new security reset email address that is NOT mine and NO WAY to change it, my password, or security questions!!
I was able to change my Apple ID but If I want to change my security questions or reset my password via iforgot.apple.com or appleid.apple.com everything is sent to the wrong email address with no way to fix it.
As usual Apple's lack of common sense and foresight has left us stranded on '*** island' without a boat or paddle.
Here's some more news and questions from that special island that Apple sends us to:
- When verifying your new ID / email address they ask you to login but give you no way to logout.
- Once logged into the My Apple ID website; if you click on any of the other tabs like Support, your login does not follow you to other areas where you need to login again.
- On the My Apple ID web page: Addresses Tab / 'Update your addresses'; You change your primary address because you've moved, deleted your shipping address, then click on 'Add Shipping Address' to find a BLANK page... Come-on people! Everybody else pre-populates or gives the option to copy the primary information over to the shipping address fields... WHY CAN'T APPLE?
- Another WHY CAN'T question: How is it that most everybody else except Apple can support iDevices visiting their websites by changing the content layouts to fit the smaller screens and resolutions?
Apple's Answer: Make a New iPhone and iPad with higher resolutions than previous products and give it a nifty name like the Resolutionary Retina display.
- The Internet browsing experience: Why do pages reload almost every time you come back to them without any way to change this behavior?
Say you're filling out a web form and need to lookup some information from another app or web page tab, you return to see your page reload in horror as everything you were typing has now vanished.
AWESOME Work Guys! No Way To Change Key Settings...
That absolutely ruins the Apple Experience.
See, I told you so: No Follow Through due to Lack of common sense and foresight.
Apple only gets things half right and never seems to follow through in many key areas.
This is exactly how they torched the company before and why they had to bring Steve back to resurrect the company out of the ashes.
Now that he is gone for good... What will happen next is anyone's guess.
My prediction: Apple will eventually torch itself again from this blatant lack of insight.
Steve was an awesome visionary and pioneer.
Without him, Apple had better invest the money he made for them wisely.
