Dear Apple, inc. in Cupertino.
Apple is a major brand in the United States but in Saudi Arabia it is considered “too expensive” and “have bad warranty” because of bad experience with Apple’s Authorised Distributor in Saudi Arabia, Arab Computers and Arab Business Machines, Apple’s Authorised Distributor in Middle East.
“The Mac community is growing day after day in Saudi Arabia and the middle-east region. Some people get interested in Apple computers after seeing a Mac machine in action in-front of their own eyes, but most people get hooked up simply by using iPods, which proves that the halo effect does exist.”
The Apple iPod is very popular in Saudi Arabia, even though it still lacks support for Arabic language. The iPod brand is strong.
I saw a salesman at a store in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia trying to convince a kid with his dad to buy a Zune. While I thought the kid would object, I noticed that the father who seemed in this late fifties, told the sales rep that the iPod looked much nicer and easier to use, and I heard the kid say, “I want an iPod, this is not an iPod” pointing at the Zune.
Apple has made a first step in entering the Saudi Arabia market and it is by making a deal with Mobily to sell the iPhone 3G in Saudi Arabia. We hope this would be the first step of many.
Dear Apple, here are some points that we believe will contribute to your success in Saudi Arabia:
- Open an Apple Retail Store. Not simply a retail store but enhance the experience of owning a Mac in Saudi Arabia by including the Genius Bar, training, workshops, youth programs and Business Partners.
- Open an Online Apple Store. Countries without an Apple Retail Store (Philippines and Malaysia for example) at least have an Online Apple Store. Also current developers in Saudi Arabia need to fax their iPhone Development form because there is no Online Apple Store in Saudi Arabia.
- Open an Apple Service Center. The Apple Authorized Service Providers in Saudi Arabia are very inefficient, have no stock of spare parts.
- Provide better support and warranty. MacBooks purchased in Saudi Arabia have a limited warranty that is not honored outside Saudi Arabia (or Apple IMC countries) and sometimes used machines sold as new.
- Localize Mac OS X. ABM’s latest Arabic Localization is for Mac OSX Leopard 10.5.6 which does not work with the current 10.5.8 version of the OS. Arabic localization should be provided by Apple directly. The Arabic language is natively spoken by 422 million people which is more than English. Arabic localization is MISSING from Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (Apple discussions link)!
- Support Arabic
on the iPodon all iPod models. An Arabic iPod prototype was supposed to be released in 2006 according to Elias Abou-Rustom, general manager of Arab Business Machine but nothing happened in the last 3 years. While regular iPods are still lacking Arabic, the upcoming iPhone/iPod touch OS 3.0 will finally add Arabic support. Thank you Apple. Update: 2009 iPod nano models now support Arabic, but not the 2009 iPod classic. - Arabic iPad and iBooks content. Apple has just released the iPad however it doesn’t support Arabic.
- Offer better prices. The Saudi Arabia Riyal is pegged with the United States Dollar. Since the EURO exchange rate is high the Apple products are very expensive. A 300SR MacBook Pro charger is sold in Saudi Arabia for 450SR, a %50 markup.
- Expand the iTunes Store. Currently the Saudi Arabia iTunes Store is limited to iPhone Applications. We would like to see it expand to cover Podcasts, iTunesU, Music, Movies and TV Shows. Currently there are no digital media market place in Saudi Arabia. This is a chance for Apple to get a head start.
- Standardize Saudi Arabia Apple homepage. Apple.com.sa is still owned by Apple’s former partner in Saudi Arabia, Jeraisy Techand their partnership with Apple ended in 2000. Apple.sa TLDs will be available soon as well. Apple.com/sa doesn’t exist except for the iPhone page.
Thank you.
Fellow Apple users in Saudi Arabia: feel free to post your comments on this page or contact us directly.

Thank you for taking the time to do this, highly appreciated. All the points you’ve mentioned are valid, I only hope to see something happening soon…maybe sooner than we think. Who knows?
Cheers.
June 6th, 2009 at 4:33 pm
I’ll be amazed if Apple took an action.
Good job
June 6th, 2009 at 8:06 pm
Apple is ready to take action if we are ready to present a case convincing enough for them to take action!
June 6th, 2009 at 9:35 pm
good article, inshallah they open a store soon somewhere in Gulf.
just would like to say the iPhone OS 3.0 has Arabic support, and so does the iPod touch.
You can write Arabic in all applications, or even better you can set the menu to be Arabic
June 6th, 2009 at 10:38 pm
I hope this work !
June 6th, 2009 at 10:40 pm
Despite the fact that we do have a bad quality of service over all Apple products, I was really shocked when I saw the prices at UK last month and compared them to here! Its like 25-35% higher prices here than UK, while we do not have VAT (which is by the way 15.5% at UK). This tell that the prices here are over around 35-45%
I think any decent brand won’t allow that to happen unless that they have no interest on specific region. I hope not!

Not until I read your post and relevant comments did I realize how fortunate I am to have an Apple store so near — even 100 miles (161km) away. May Steve Jobs smile on you and grant your wish.
June 11th, 2009 at 8:51 pm
I bought an iPhone the 1st day it was made available thru Mobily. It is now broken and no one can give me a straight answer on where and how much will it cost me to fix it. Why? Because there is no real presence for Apple in Saudi Arabia.
Please consider reaching out to your fan base in Saudi Arabia and the middle-east by granting us this one basic request.
June 11th, 2009 at 11:23 pm

Apple Store in the Kingdom becomes a must nowadays. Saudi Arabia is the biggest market in the region for Macs, iPods & iPhones. the local dealers here are not qualified to represent the Apple Inc. and are always ripping us and preventing new custormers from joining the Mac Mania.. Owning a Mac and having the peace of mind, efficiency and being more productive is starting to gain interest amongst all Saudis, but they are set back with the Overpricing and the lack of support the local dealers here are doing.
For that I am signing this petition and hoping that our word would be heard by Steve Jobs and Apple Inc. Executives.
June 12th, 2009 at 5:10 pm

I dunno why Apple ignore such highly-profitable market, as Saudi Arabia.
I’m considering buying the iphone 3Gs as soon as it is available via a friend in America.
Mobily failed to deliver customer support expected with such great device as Iphone..
June 12th, 2009 at 9:51 pm
agreed, I dislike the fact I have to wait till I return to America for proper repairs or to buy compatible products at a decent price. An online store for KSA would also be nice, since Apple will not ship via Aramex.

A big fan of Mac and Apple products. I own an iPod Classic 160 GB, an official iPhone 3G 16 GB by mobily, Saudi Arabia, and soon very soon a MacBook Pro.
It would be my pleasure to benefit and privilege the services presented by the official Apple Co., rather than experiencing a hard time from different Apple retailers in Saudi Arabia. I also would like to thank the person or the group who have the honors of bringing up such a brilliant idea, which I had in mind for ages.
June 12th, 2009 at 11:50 pm

I’m really happy to find this petition and I hope apple is going to do something here in Saudi, a funny story happened while i was visiting Electro (Riyadh, King Abdullah Road branch) I found one of Arab Machines representative with Apple logo on his shirt, so I asked him what kind of computer is this and what type of operating system? ( i was asking about imac) so he told me that this is a new computer with Mac OS X but you don’t have to use is because we can install Windows Operating system:)) so you can tell what kind of Apple representative in Saudi…. they are selling Mac Computers to use it with Windows….
Thanks.

Dear Apple Inc,
Can you Imagine a world with overpriced Macs and no AppleCare, Mac OS X is sold for over 300 US Dollars and so does MobileMe and we don’t have the Genius Bar.
Do you think if you did a recall to one of your portable’s chargers/batteries our local distributor will follow? well, think again.
Do you still believe in providing a perfect user experience as a whole starting from entering the store to using the little things in Mac OS X. Well, that user experience does NOT exist in Saudi Arabia.
NOTE: I helped many people in their switch from the dark side but now I stopped, well it’s mainly because I cannot explain my early 2006 iMac’s situation. First it was the vertical lines in the LCD and then it became a logic board problem (A.K.A. a dead iMac) and when people ask how/why I cannot answer I just blame the chinese. by the way, fixing that iMac through the local service provider costs the same as the latest iMac model.
An Extremely Loyal Apple Customer

Smart gadgets sold in a stupid and primitive way. (in Saudi that is)
And when I say primitive, I mean the greedy salesman who only care about selling his goods and taking advantage of buyer’s ignorance.
Saudi market is a real potential and immediate actions should be considered.

Here’s an awful experience to what its like to buy a Mac in Saudi Arabia.
I dropped by this evening to iTechia (An Apple unofficial-very-greedy retail store), I was just told that the all-new Macbook Pro 13″ is there at last, they surprisingly only have the high-end one, that is, C2D 2.53GHz proccessor, 4GB of RAM and has the price tag of 1,499USD at Apple online store. but hey iTechia could not just settle for 200USD in profit, its just too little.
Here it goes, greedy store offers that particular Macbook Pro under 2,133USD, which has a 634USD difference with the one in the US market.
We want official Apple presence in Saudi Arabia!
Until then, Amazon.com wishes us a pleasant shopping experience

I am a developer wh is intersted in developing software for Apple products and for the arab users in particular …. but the lack of support in Saudi Arabia made this nearly impossible …. I am a strong fan of Apple products but the huge difference in price between here and the US made me think more than twice befor I buy them from Saudi Arabia …… and when I did buy some frm the US … I winded up having to ship them back with friends for support ….. this is making me switching to other products which I really don’t like …

Yes we need apple mother company to be in saudi arabia prices are unbelivable why to pay 300$ extra at itechia for the new macbook pro 13″ on the apple store 1,199 and they sell it for 1,500 $
i was talking to one philipino he said when you buy it threw the website you have to add the tax which is 95$ that means the machine will cost 1300$ without shipping to KSA
if we had apple KSA i will save 300$
i will wait till itechia lower the price
July 5th, 2009 at 4:34 pm
ear sir,
I am owner of a Macbook Pro, 2,2 Ghz, 2 Go Ram, 120 Go HDD (5400
rpm), with this serial number: W87442HXX91 bought new from a Apple
authorised resseller in Toulouse, France in December 2007.
Suddenly, the computer has no more video issue, why it was normally
working few seconds before
Accordind to apple support, this is due to Nvidia chipset and apple
recommands to contact the nearest Apple Service Center THAT WILL FIX
IT FOR FREE OR WILL MAKE ISSUE REFUNDS for people who may have paid
for that; what I ve did, I went to Arab computers in Jeddah (Mr
Karim), but he rejected totally what it is written on apple support
webpages, refused to fix the problem for free and he told that it will
cost 4200 SR for fixing the problem
I found that this contradiction is absolutely abnormal
Can you please help me for fixing this problem?
Best regards

Apple should be in Saudi arabia but my main concern is due to the fact Saudi rules and regulation regarding warranty and big companies are there saudi under sponsorship like a franchise and Apple never do this never done in uk or anywhere in the world apart from authorized agents like mobily for iphone but their support is sucks… and most of the companies dont want that ..
there are so many reason APPLE ave to think 100 times to open something like in Saudi …

OK that’s pretty enough , but i will invite Steve Jobs to lunch and say to him” whats up dude, don’t you wanna open an apple store here in KSA so you are gonna win a great business ,come on man dont be scared”
Steve Jobs says:ok ok i will do that, am gonna see how its gonna be in saudi arabia, but i will open just one branch in riyadh just as an experiment .
(6 months later) steve jobs says: wow its great am gonna have another branch in jeddah,thank you saudi guys you are really a mac family.

I think it’s about time, considering the growing of the Mac market share… I usually buy all my Mac products abroad when I travel, that’s how much I don’t trust the resellers here!
August 7th, 2009 at 2:26 pm
We indeed need Apple Store in KSA for many reasons. Besides the customer experience, it’s a very active market and the people there are really getting into Mac systems nowadays. However, not a negligible portion of those people are getting repelled by the price margin, and for some they find their way to get a product online somehow from outside Saudi Arabia and the Middle East, which could arise many problems.
Having an Apple Store will indeed increase the efficiency of sales, marketing, customer experience…etc
Although there might be thousands of thousands of people here who loves the Mac system and Apple products, but I’m sure there’re million more people who would join them if they get better experiment and environment by official Apple Store.
And instead of seeing 1 to 2 customers per hour in one of the biggest Apple retailers in Saudi Arabia, the Apple Store with its standards will definitely attracts hundreds more.
After all, Apple products is all about the beautiful experience and satisfaction with trust. Which we lack here.
Thank you!

yes we want, having an Apple machine in Saudi is hard, my cable was cut and the nearest store to buy a cable from was 500 km away.
can you imagine the distance i asked my mate to buy one for me and the distributor said that they dont have the cable and he had to wait for a week to get it. then posting it to me in the south.

Although I don’t live in Saudi currently, I will soon return. I’ve had a mac for the last 5 1/2 years (a PowerbookG4) and I’m amazed at how well it still works. I cannot imagine not using a mac anymore.
Another problem, by the way, with Apple’s reliance on IMC programs in countries that have no online stores is that we cannot buy macs with native language keyboards from another region. There is no way for me to get a mac from Canada or the US with an Arabic or bilingual English/Arabic keyboard. This is an easy problem to fix, and all Apple needs to do is offer the option of such keyboards on their online stores. In the US, you can order a Japanese keyboard. Why stop their? Offer all languages at all online stores. This should not be a difficult problem to solve.

Apple must know that they have a potential in the Saudi Market.. they have to open at least two official stores in Riyadh & Jeddah..
These stores must have FULL support for customers, in order to increase the market share.

Difficult to imagine, that such a successful company in the States has no proper presence in this peninsula you would think that our Business Community would have flocked in droves to push their suit (say at least 15 years ago…) long ago .
September 13th, 2009 at 7:50 am
A lot of people say that they won’t recognize a company that doesn’t recognize them ,, and it’s our dream to see apple in here =(

September 13th, 2009 at 10:42 pm

Please oblige your resellers in the middle east to stop abusing the Apple loving population in this region with overwhelming exaggerated prices. This is really limiting your sales in a region of the world that should be one of the highest.

October 14th, 2009 at 3:49 pm
I strongly support the Saudi Mac user’s request in opening an Apple representation office in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with the responsibilty for the ME region. Saudi Arabia is a big wealthy country with growing number of Mac/iPhone/iPod user. The potential for gaining market share for Apple products in Saudi is significant. No doubt that widening of the user base for Apple products in Saudi Arabia will affect positively other country in the region.

Desperately need some decent service in the country, the local retailers are theives thus instead of helping increasing brand loyality they are decreasing it. We need an Apple store here urgently, one that includes a genius bar with real genuises to figure out issues/problems customers may be having or help educate them. WE NEED AN APPLE STORE ASAP.

we NNNEEEED APPLE STORE in Saudi Arabia. MAC is growing much faster than any computer in Saudi Arabia. MAC that what we need because it really very good and high sped. We love Mac because it doesn’t have any more hang in Macintosh. What we need?
-we really Really need Arabic language in Macintosh, iwork, ilife, Adobe, all Mac programs have Arabic language. That is the must thing what we need, in addition we need that Arabic is very clearly and Arabic neatly. That who’ll make Arabic Mac he should be professional Arabic speaker, grammar and the must important he’s a professional and good at the new Arabic vocabulary for computers and technology.
-we want Arabic original keyboard.
-we want Arabic update and keep updating.
-we need Arabic Fonts (Times New Roman) we really need it for every Official documents in Saudi government.
-Note: please make sure that Arabic language in Mac is Not as Arabic language in Microsoft Windows, because them Arabic isn’t clearly and fluent. them language is a half Arabic and half English then the user get headache.
December 1st, 2009 at 10:48 pm

but not just in the KSA ..
we want apple in the whole Middle east ..
we love apple’s products , but the problem is that the prices are very high
and the support is very weak
we are waiting for u apple
December 9th, 2009 at 3:03 pm
Please Apple, we need more Apple things. First thing is the Apple store since the current resellers are almost doubling the prices, which is something nauseating and sick.
Second thing is the MUSIC store. There are no digital music sellers on here, but there are people who WANT to buy and own digital copies. We do get Sony BMG, Universal and EMI physical releases. But the problem is the delay and lack of units. So in iTunes music store it will be easier.
December 9th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
Yes, the Saudi Arabian market and its growth are in desperate need for better attention.. An official Apple Saudi Arabia entity is important.
December 9th, 2009 at 7:21 pm

December 9th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
I Approve of this message. And would love to have iTunes in Kuwait too. Please???
December 10th, 2009 at 1:35 am
Agree.
December 11th, 2009 at 5:35 pm
I strongly concur. Having worked with Apple Computers since 1980 (Apple ][+) and Macs since 1984, I have a strong affinity for the machines (and software). I use my Macs at home and in the office. When problems arise (at least in the U.S.), i can go to the local Apple Store, talk at the Genius Bar, and get the problem resolved, with minimal problems or delays, and at a good price.
As I am considering an opportunity in KSA, I would be sorely disappointed to find that there is no official Apple presence in the country, or the region. Please hear these pleas, and react positively to them. The client support will be great, as well as being profitable for the firm.

Think about your reputation and Brand.
Official Apple office and store are needed in Saudi Arabia.
Thank you.

When my iPhone needed repairs the Apple service center here could not help me, instead they felt ashamed and directed me towards a local mobile repair store who did an excellent job..
Apple KSA should come soon..and NOW! we need it here!

December 22nd, 2009 at 2:06 pm
I agree with all the comments stated above. In my opinion, maybe Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple have a problem with the existing government restrictions here in Saudi. In my case, I find it hard to access the iTunes store in my iPod touch which I use to do in the Philippines because it says, this is not available in this country. My Macbook have a minor software problem but I don’t know where to bring it here in Saudi, they say it has one in Khobar. But I changed my mind. I’d rather repair it myself because I know these guys are not Apple personnels. I am thinking they will open the screws of my Macbook and then leave thousands of fingerprints to it and nothing is solved! Nightmare! I only allow Apple personnels touch it, I am guaranteed of their work. To Steve Jobs, Cook, Jony Ives have mercy on us Apple users here in Saudi. I know with your charisma Mr Jobs, you can change the face of this country by penetrating your revolutionary technology! I will wait for it to happen! In’shallah!

Customer service in Saudi Arabia is non existent and if it exists it is now where close to what one expects in US or Europe.
Apple is looking in a unique rich region where you have 3 different customers: local people- affluent Saudis- men and young guys who adore technology, new things and use it to the maximum; Shopaholics Saudi females who also spend a lot on technology and Exapts- who like to get the better things- provided they are authentic, value for money.
If there is Apple store with the same staff as in US- there will be a mile long line evry day to enter the store.
An official fully functional online iTUNES store, Apple store, iPhones (which are always out of stock..NOW) …..for sure the sales will double/triple from what they are now.
Mr Steve Jobs you have been voted as the Fortune CEO of the year; dont let go of this opportunity and dont let Mac lovers in this region suffer anymore.

What we need is support, and assurance, since we bought the best products, and deserve the best after-sell service.
Saudi Arabia is a huge market, and controlling it remotely isn’t how you gain market shares.
You have to have true presence to market your products towards 25.2 million people (2008 estimates).
We want Apple to get over here and support the community. The crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. The MacHeads in Saudi Arabia.

January 27th, 2010 at 10:35 am
It’s so obvious from the Apple’s way of doing business in Saudi is maximizing profit with a minimum effort just like the Saudi way that most of the companies do their business in. It’s just way different from their “stated” values there is no customer focused attitude and we easily can see that from the Saudi Apple website!! How come we can’t see the prices of apple products on the website just like in any other country.
Khaled’s comment: The site you were referring to is Arab Computer’s site. The distributor for ABM in UAE, part of MDS holdings, not Apple.
January 27th, 2010 at 7:10 pm
saudi market is very promising and there are lots of people interested in Apple products , but the prices are too expensive for an average customer
January 27th, 2010 at 7:19 pm
Dude I was refering to the apple.com/sa which got nothing on it but iPhone!! I dunno if they started selling the iPhone yet or not while I bought mine from the apple online store of the company I’m staying in now.. Why it can’t be that simple in Saudi too?!! Or they’re happily watching their retailers emptying the customers’s pockets and Apple get handsome profit out of it!!!

yes this is what we need, and we need it immediatly, sauid arabia is a country which has more buying power than any other middle east countries, so encourage us, then apple’s profits will shoot up. for example, Siemens AG’s major profit’s are from doing business with saudi arabia.

Hi
My iPhone 3G 8GB suddenly stopped detecing any WiFi networks. I took it to the iPhone official career in Saudi Arabia (Mobily), they said they will replace it with the new one in 4 to 7 days. 20 days have gone by but they keep saying that wait 10 days and than 15 days.
I really need iPhone as I travel alot. The OFFICIAL CAREER here is ridiculous. They pay no attention to customer service and unfortunately there is no one to complain to..
How can I get this thing done. Is there anyway to contact APPLE INTERNATIONAL and get this solved? my iPhone is under warranty.
please help
February 17th, 2010 at 12:09 pm
different stores in the kingdom are ridiculously overpricing apple products, which affects the brand in a negative manner,
so please consider concentrating on this region so that each mac user around the world is satisfied
thank you
February 18th, 2010 at 5:19 pm
I had an Apple product for about five years, now. Isn’t it time to have our apple store here in Saudi Arabia.
I took the risk for having Apple products for five years with out any warranties or services.
There is no reason no to do so.
Apple I think it’s time.
February 19th, 2010 at 8:53 am
Iphone users here in the Kingdom multipliy everyday. What apple is thinking? They must reached its hand here to win the millions of mobile phone users especially those foreigners working in the kingdom. I want iphone 3gs but I ended finding out that up-to-date it is not available. Geeee…. I am craving for it.
Apple, you must show your guts!

February 22nd, 2010 at 12:24 pm
Hello…
I would like to ask you about Arabic language as one of the faces languages on Apple product’s!
When Apple will support Arabic language as well as we need?
Is Apple looking right now to support Arabic language as soon as possible?
If you’re looking for Arabic language professors to add Arabic language on Apple products’s as well as we need, I can guide you and help you to find some Arabic professors. They can do it as very well as we need, also they can do it better than Arabic in Microsoft, because Microsoft doesn’t use to a really good and Eloquent Arabic translators. For example Microsoft translates “computer to كمبيوتر KOMBuUOTRR” that is NOT correct at all, in Arabic “computer means حاسب HASSEB” and “micro computer means حاسوب HASSOOb”. The correct one that what we need it on Apple Product’s. Who can do the correct Arabic on Mac except those whom a really good, eloquent and professors in Arabic language.
I’m really belief in Arabic will eloquent in the description of Computer output, because it’s one of the oldest language in earth. It able to describe any thing in the would, It’s the ablest language to describe anything of all languages. If you read Arabic, please read “how humans are creating in the womb on Quran by Arabic language. You’ll see the most astonishing description in your life, that described by Arabic, so many examples like that, also with new technique vocabulary Arabic able to describe it for examples “Computer=HASSEB, micro computer=HASOOB, ion=DALEEFدالف. Ion came form Greece, but DALEEF came form old Arabic to new Arabic. The meaning of DALLEF is a very similar action that happened with ion. DALLEF could be a root as DALFA, noun as DOULF plural as DOULOF, simple present DALLF”ion” , present progressive as YATADALAF, simple past as DALAFAT, past progressive as MOTADALEEF, future tense as SAYNDALEEF, future past tense! as SAYODLAF “means it’ll happened sure!, predicate as ADLAFAH, adverb as DALAFEN, adjective as DALF for man or DALFAH of woman or Command Verb as EDLEF, so many ways and ramifications could use with it… every word of these could be for signal man or woman and plural for man and woman…
so the really good Arabian professors chose DALLEEF as common noun for ion, because ion Greece word means in English language “go”, but “go in Arabic means (TH’HAb), go couldn’t gave a right meaning of (DALLEEF), also ion as a Greece word, it doesn’t give a Scientific event of ion as science that mean ion as Greece doesn’t describe the scientific action of ion as science word, because ion in Greece means ( go or TH’HAB in Arabic). ion as Greece word isn’t a far meaning of (DALLEEF). Ion is closer than go of the meaning of DALEEF. DALEEF one of the old words in Arabic no one use it as a common word, but now it is common as science word. Many scientific vocabulary in Arabic came same way of DALLEEF. If any one cam from hundreds of years ago then you ask him what does DALLEEF mean? you will hear a very similar definition of ion as a scientific word, but the man definition’s is a definition of Arabic vocabulary.

Dear Apple
I would like to ask you about Arabic language as one of the face languages on Apple products!
When will Apple support Arabic language as well as we need?
Is Apple looking right now to support Arabic language as much as possible?
If you’re looking for Arabic language professors to add Arabic language to Apple products as well as we need, I can guide you and help you to find some Arabic professors. They can do it as well as we need; also, they can do it better than Microsoft Arabic, because Microsoft doesn’t use particulate fluent Arabic translators. For example Microsoft, translates “computer” to “كمبيوتر”(KOMBUOTRR); that is NOT correct at all. In Arabic, “computer” means ”حاسب”(HASSEB) and “micro computer” means ”حاسوب”(HASSOOB). We need the correct translation for Arabic Apple products. Who can do the correct Arabic on Mac except those professors in Arabic language who are fluent?
I really believe that Arabic is an extremely useful language to use in the description of computer output, because it’s one of the oldest and ablest languages on earth. If you can read Arabic, please read “how humans are created in the womb and” in the Quran in Arabic language. You’ll see the most astonishing description in your life, that is described in Arabic; Also, the new technical vocabulary, Arabic able to describe many things for example. “Computer”=”HASSEB”, “micro computer”=”HASOOB”, “ion”=”دَالِفُ” (DALEEF). Ion came from Greece, but DALLEF came from old Arabic and it used in new Arabic. The meaning of DALLEF is very similar to the meaning of the scientific word “ion”.
DALLEF could be a root as “دَلَفَ”(DLEFF), noun form as “دُلَّفَ”(DOULF), plural as “دُلَّفُ”(DOLLAF), simple present form as DALLEF, present progressive form as “يدلف”(Yadleeffo), simple past form as DALAFAT, past progressive fomr as MOTADALEEF, future tense form as SAYENDALEEF, opject form as ADLAFAHT, adverb form as DALAFEN, adjective as “دَالِفُ” (DALEEF/ion).
There are so many ways and situations could use with it… every word mentioned could be for a signal, for man or woman and plural for man and woman…
So the really good Arabic professors chose DALEEF as common noun for scientific word (ion), because ion is Greek word meaning in “go”, but “go” in Arabic means (TH’HAB). “Go” couldn’t gave a right meaning of (DALEEF), also ion as a Greek word, it doesn’t give a scientific event of ion as ion in Greek doesn’t describe the scientific action of ion as a science word, because ion in Greek means “go” (TH’HAB) in Arabic. Ion as a Greek word isn’t too far in meaning of (DALEEF). Ion is closer than “go” of the meaning of DALEEF. DALEEF is one of the oldest words in Arabic, no one use it as a common word, but now it is common as science word. Many scientific vocabulary in Arabic came from same way of DALEEF. If anyone came from hundreds of years ago and you ask him “What does DALEEF mean?”, you will hear a very similar definition of ion as a scientific word, but the man’s definition is a definition of Arabic word (vocabulary).
PLEASE try hard to hire good professors of Arabic language when you decide to use Arabic language on Apple products. PLEASE do NOT make the same error as Microsoft.
Thank you very much for reading our need.
I hope to get feedback as soon as possible.
Our organization is the “We Want Apple in Saudi Arabia”
You can read our sufferings about Apple in Saudi Arabia without supporting and without a real Apple Store directly from Apple company. We have a deceiver partner company of Apple in Saudi Arabia. They don’t call you to support Arabic language by updating with Apple software and they charge more than other Apple store. in fact they made very poor Arabic language, also, without updating by themselves or Apple and it’s breaking the Mac OS X. No one like it and use it.
Please hear more than 710 needers of Apple and they increasing in size day by day on this link http://www.wewantapplesaudi.com/apple-saudi-arabia.html#comment.
Also, please imagine about those who don’t know about that web-site, but they use Apple in Saudi Arabia.
I already wrote this message on that web-site. I wrote it to call the needers to call Apple.

I switched to Apple last year, and use my private laptop for work, it is much better than PC. There are more and more companies these days, who need reliable IT platforms for their business, and it is about time for Apple to conside move into the Saudi market.
