I wondered if i can sync my iphone to my laptop which is using the home sharing for music????
Does anyone know if i sync my iphone to my laptop, instead of my pc, which currently only has content in itunes due to home sharing will it remain on the iphone aweay from home????
You can't sync music to your phone which isn't in your iTunes library. As you are only streaming the music to your laptop via Home Sharing, you wouldn't be able to sync it to your phone from the iTunes library on your laptop. You can, however, copy the music from the iTunes library on the host computer to the iTunes library on your laptop using Home Sharing and then sync the music to your phone. Caution: the iPhone is only designed to sync to a single computer/iTunes library. If you have been syncing with your pc and not your laptop you would be strongly advised not to sync with your laptop or you will create all kinds of problems.

I can home share music no problem, but it won't transfer the audio books on to the other pc?? How do I do that please?
What is the original source for these audiobooks? In other words where were they originally downloaded or ripped from? What format are these audiobooks in?
Why can't you copy them over to the other PC using Home Sharing?

I have an apple tv 1st generation, and there is a setting for airtunes. can someone tell me what this is and how to use it?
I've looked at that, but on my PC, "look for remote speakers connected with airtunes" isn't an option.
The only options I get are "prevent ipods [etc] from syncing automatically" , "warn me when [X %] of the data on this computer will be changed" and "forget all remotes". Its also got a list of backups I have saved, as well as a button to reset sync history.
When I am playing a song, the "airplay" button isn't even visible.
I am sure that the apple tv setting is on as well. Is there anything else you can help me with? -

HT3819 Can 2 apple ID's share music and apps using the HOME SHARING?
Can 2 Different Apple ID's within the same household share music and apps using the "Home Sharing"? Or should we continue to just use 1 Apple ID?

If I choose "restore from iTunes backup" to move everything from old iphone to a new one, will I still be able to use the old phone for music and apps? Can the old phone be docked up to that same computer every now and then? Or will the new and old phone overwrite each other in some way? In other words, are the two phones treated as different devices when the "restore" option is used to set up the new phone? Thanks in advance.
Yes, you can use the old iPhone as an iPod touch.

I have 2 apple tv's but my playlists only show up on one; can I get them to show up on both? I have home sharing turned on and itunes match.
If you are attempting to share to both at the same time, you can't.
Are you selecting the second AppleTV in home sharing options on the MBP. Are all devices signed in for Home Sharing with the same AppleID?

Hello. I would really appreciate anyone's help. I just updated my I Phone. I am not a tech savvy person, although I am a writer. So, please understand. I just got an I Cloud account. I am about to get a new I Phone tomorrow and therefore, I need help. I need to know how to back up notes on my computer. It is not a MAC. Can someone help me? It will not allow me to.
iPhone 3G is Old technology. When it was launched it had iOS 2.0. Currently, the highest it can go is iOS 4.2.1 and therefore can not handle many newer applications. As you have recorded, it is giving good service for which it has been designed.
Needless to say, if you want to use applications as stated, you must have at least 3GS, whose current is iOS 6.1.2. On the lighter side; Rather than updating iOS they are asking you to update iPhone (Technology). Cheers -
After the OS 6 update my speaker does not work. Volume control on the side does not adjust the volume either. My music plays but no sound comes out. Can someone help me with this issue? I've tried rebooting my phone but still no sound comes out. I currently have the 4S.

Hi I need some help with pop up ads there everywhere in safari is there a anti phishing product i should install or settings that need to be changed I'm new to using apple and would love some help here.
There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
Back up all data before making any changes.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked. -

I want to get a Router with a USB port for Home Sharing my library of Music and Movies off a 3TB external HD to my iMac, Apple TV, and iPad so that I don't have to leave my iMac on all the time, but more importantly, I have almost filled the 1TB of memory on the iMac so I need more space. I like my setup using the iPad as a remote to stream movies from the iMac to my AppleTV but I need more space. Thanks.
The iPod and/or MacBook communicate with the Apple TV via WiFi, so there has to be a WiFi network of some sort, even if just an "ad hoc" one set up using a laptop or desktop computer as an access point. If you don't think there will be a WiFi network available, I'd suggest leaving out the Apple TV and just connecting the MacBook or iPod directly to the TV to do your presentation. A MacBook can connect to just about any video input with the appropriate adapter, and the iPod touch can connect via composite or component inputs, or HDMI if it's a fourth-generation iPod touch.

For a while now Firefox has randomly shut down for reasons unknown. Sometimes windows reports the error but not always. When I start Firefox back up again, it does not restore my tabs. Also as an added bonus it deletes the cookies and cache, and I don't know why. Furthermore this occurrence has become more and more frequent. Just in the last hour along before writing this complaint, Firefox crashed three times right as I switch users, but not every time I switched. I am a taboholic, addicted to tabs, sometimes 70+, and this is the final straw. This frequency became more and more prominent a few days ago. When it first crashed, Windows was kind enough to let me know of the error which first occurred one to two weeks ago. It has become the very bane of my internet surfing. Someone please help, or I will have to renounce my allegiance to Firefox and switch to the dark side that is Crome.
<blockquote>... or I will have to renounce my allegiance to Firefox ...</blockquote>
There is no citizenship oath involved in using Firefox, it's a piece of software.
Look, if Firefox isn't generating any crash reports, you more than likely have an operating system or hardware issue. If Firefox is generating crash reports you can retrieve that information and post the report numbers here.

Hi guys!
I really need help. I tried to back up the data on my iphone 4 on the iTunes version 11.01 but failed.
The error message read : the backup was corrupt or not compatible with iPhone. can anyone advise me on this,
as I urgently need to back up my phone in anticipation for my iPhone 5.
Greatly appreciated!this usally happens when the backup you tool was from an old ios version. Two options that you can try is
1. Delete the back up by going to edit> preferences> devices & delete back up on itunes & try backing up again
2. Update the ios software of the iphone4 & then take a back up. then try restoring
