Hi
I got an good idear which i would like suggest to Apple, but is that overall possible?
I'm not expecting direct contact to the Apple top management, but just like a "first stage aproval" before going to the lead.
And would you even be credited if the idear would bring something big?

Apple or any of its employees do not accept or consider unsolicited ideas, including ideas for new advertising campaigns, new promotions, new or improved products or technologies, product enhancements, processes, materials, marketing plans or new product names. Please do not submit any unsolicited ideas, original creative artwork, suggestions or other works (“submissions”) in any form to Apple or any of its employees. The sole purpose of this policy is to avoid potential misunderstandings or disputes when Apple’s products or marketing strategies might seem similar to ideas submitted to Apple. If, despite our request that you not send us your ideas, you still submit them, then regardless of what your letter says, the following terms shall apply to your submissions.


Btw, the word "idea" is spelled without an R

Lol thanks
A shame

This practice is undertaken by practically every company, and extends outside of consumer product organisations like Apple - publishing companies will refuse to accept unsolicited manuscripts, television production companies generally destroy any unsolicited materials as soon as they are received, and others - like Apple - have these very strict policies publicly published online to deter people. In the end it's all done for the same reason; so that if a company happened to publish a book/produce a television show or movie/produce a product that a random member of the public also happened to submit to them, they don't have to deal with said person trying to get some money out of it. They will simply try not to read any submissions or - if they do - these legal documents get them out of any possible future lawsuits.

Germany.
You'll find a lot of people in the US pronounce it like, "ideer."

That's because it is pronounced (as in spoken) like that, it's just not spelled (as in written) that way. By the way, it's not just American English, it's the same in British English.
