Ok, **** you apple, do you have to make everything so god damned complicated? are you Farking serious? i bought my dad an ipad, and 1) u need itunes, worst Farking program, so SET IT UP?!?!

ARE YOU Farking SERIUOS

to top it off, on my dad's computer, "you cannot connect to itunes, connection timed out etc." **** YOU APPLE, **** you steve jobs, u piece of shit. make everything more backwards compatible PLEASE.

i had to download itunes on my computer to set up this Farking ipad, thx for wasting my time, bitch ass steve jobs, why don't u hire competent people to code your programs

this is why i hate everything apple, i seriously hope this company dies.

apples not going anywhere. embrace it and start to love it.

that being said I dislike how my iphone works sometimes.

dohh, for Apple products you need Apple products. Money money money.

that's the reason i never buy apple shit

Apple is the most closed source/etc shit I've ever laids fingers/hands on, and it's so disgusting, along with overpriced hardware and horrible software and looks, and then they are able to still sell it, that's whats make me mad, if apple has a competing product, apple has the worst one, but at the same time the most expensive!!!

my dad's 53, he doesn't deserve this piece of shit, but he wanted one, so i bought him it. he's having fun with it now, but he spent like 30 mins trying to set it up

that's Farking grief he doesn't not deserve. i Farking hate steve jobs right now, **** him. next time i see him i'm Farking throwing a rock in his face.

Your situation is a perfect example of the ideological difference between Microsoft and Apple.

WIth Apple, everything is centralized and streamlined; it's like a socialist operating system. Yes you need iTunes, and yes it needs to be relatively updated. But, you get support from Apple and the quality of the store and services is great.

Some like it, some don't. For those that like it, it's consistent with every Apple product. When you use an iPhone, iPad, iMac, or Power Mac - they all "feel" the same and are connected.

And lol @ 30 minutes. I've spent days troubleshooting BSODs.

Lulz chill, I've had presents where manual construction was required =p. Struggling to get a present to work is one of the best parts of it.
I remember it took me 40 minutes to set up my 360 for the first time xD. Never realized my control didn't have batteries.in the end lulz were had

yea w/e

i've walked off my anger, and my dad's loving it

My dad using mine for the first time:

if it takes you days to "troubleshoot" a BSOB you need to get off computers nao

Apple products aren't hard to configure, they just refuse to conform!

Yah they sync well, but with one program, I can get a zune sync with 20 different programs in half the time even! The itunes is so messed up in every way. Though knowing about computers helps with not having to worry with gui bloated software and just cut it down to performace

i don't get it

all you had to do is install itunes and you are mad about that?

writing all that shit in the OP probably takes more time than installing itunes

Wow.

Never saw THAT coming.

OMG No one on SRF EVER told us Apple sucked!!!!

I haven't had a problem with BSODs in at least 10 years.

Apple thrives on being the antithesis of everything PCs stand for, that's their niche.

So of course it's going to be a pain in the ass and come with a hundred strings attached.

Am I the only one who's never had a problem with Apple or iTunes? I've never understood the hate.

lol, now my dad's mad about not being able to drag drop.

again, **** you steve jobs, no drag drop? what era are you living in bitch

thank god for dropbox

nah the internets filled with people who hate anything popular

Drag drop what? You're still on about the iPad right?

/starts chant

"ONE OF US! ONE OF US!"

Drag and drop into iTunes with automatic sync on. Maybe you should have (and should continue) to think ahead. Quit being a whiny little bitch.

FTFY

im late but mostly ever post here had me lmao

You dont specifically need itunes you naab.

1) Apple products needing itunes is one of the most commonly known facts about apple products how you did not know this before buying one is stupid

2) Iv used itunes for years never had a problem with it so can you drop the "worse Farking program" shit, minus the fact at times it can use a little more memory then other media programs there is absolutelly nothing wrong with it.

the FOXCONN Workers are not pleased

iTunes is essentially the backbone of all of their products.. I don't know where you thought he would get apps from or other products. Honestly hating on a product isn't going to make things change. Actually the amount of people that hate apple is starting to dwindle when looking at all of the people with apple made products. The amount of macbooks, ipods, even iphones I see at my university is admirable. They are doing a great job with marketing their products and getting new buyers.

I don't think having to get itunes on your computer is a life or death move for the ipad then I don't know what to tell you. I am pretty sure there are far worst things people have had to do to set up products. I don't think ranting about it is going to get you far especially if you are going to continue to use it and not do anything about it. If it is really THAT bad, go return it and get that Toshiba or whatever tablet that just came out. In this case you are in the wrong for not doing enough research about something you thought was going to magically cater to your needs no matter who made it.

And you're the reason why FOXCONN workers die

Never had trouble with itunes.. its a small download file that is rather easy to install and navigate through.. was really easy to set up my iphone 4 and ipad. Don't know which ipad you are using Chinese knockoff perhaps?
