And even when an issue is theoretically within Apple’s control, there are other factors that often result in it staying unresolved, not the least of which are how many people will be affected and the potential downside of touching that code. There are huge numbers of inexplicable problems out there, but if they’re related to unusual local conditions, it’s very, very unlikely that Apple would ever change code to address them, especially since a change might introduce other problems.Īll I’m saying is that not everything odd that happens on a Mac is Apple’s fault, or even within Apple’s control. It’s obviously fuzzy, but whenever I’m trying to evaluate someone’s suggestion that I write about some problem they’re experiencing in TidBITS, it’s one of the ways that I use (assuming I can’t easily reproduce the problem myself) to try to determine if the information will be helpful to a large number of people. What the search results suggest is that not that many people are posting about the problem.
