Can the Apple TV support more multiple remote apps?

We just got a new Apple TV and would like to use two different iPhones using different ITunes accounts to control the device through the remote app. Is is possible?

The multiple account is only for iTunes store not for Home Sharing :-(
You still have to use the same ID for all phones that runs the remote app. So my kids have to pair their phone via my account as well. We can't add multiple Home Sharings either, both my kids and my fiance uses iTunes as well and have their own content but they can't access it via the ATV without going in to settings and remove me and login as them self.
We will try with a common user id to see if that can solve our problem but I guess the new id will not get access to our content in iTunes or we have to share it some how.
(I have ATV Software 5.1.1 on my ATV)

can the AirPort Extreme support more than one USB printer at a time if it is connected to a USB Hub?

can the AirPort Extreme support more than one USB printer at a time if it is connected to a USB Hub?
Yes.....IF.....you use a powered USB hub.
I have had 3 printers connected at the same time in the past and assume that more would work as long you have a powered hub to support the number of ports that you need.

Can my Apple id support more than one iPhone for me?

That is... I got an phone for work use and in setting it up, it's asking for my Apple ID. I don't want that to affect my personal iPhone. Will that be a problem?
Thanks!

You can skip that step if you want. Then, later on, you can go into Settings and choose what you want to use the Apple ID for. For example, you might want want to sign into the iTunes Store, and in to Messages and FaceTime so you can receive messages on the work phone. But you might not want to sign into iCloud or else your data from your work phone will go to the personal phone and vice versa.

HT1947 Any way to directly control the apple TV volume via ios remote app?

It is great that remote app can now control direct streaming options to the apple TV (such as apple match, apple radio, and home sharing) but is there any way for the remote app to control the volume?
Note that when I indirectly stream music through an external device (such as an iphone/ipad/laptop), I can of course use an apps volume control (such as, say, spotify, or itunes or whatever), and that works. What i'm talking about here is instances where I'm using the remote app to have the apple TV stream directly from, say, apple radio.
As it stands now, the only way to control the volume in such cases is to control what is receiving the signal from the apple TV (such as an amplifer, or external sound producing device such as powered speakers, etc.).
To make sure this clear to everyone, if I do:
internet -> WIFI LAN -> iphone running, say, spotify -> WIFI LAN via airplay -> Apple TV -> Amplifer
I can control the volume using the spotify app (or even the iphone's volume). This also works if I replace the spotify app with any music app runing
on the iphone (such as the music app). If, however, I try to do the following:
internet -> LAN -> Apple TV -> Amplifer
and where the Apple TV is controled via the latest iphone/ipad remote app so that the Apple TV streams from, say, apple radio directly, there is no way
to control the volume other than to adjust the amplifer.
Thanks very much!

The Apple TV has no volume control. When you are streaming from an app you are then controlling the volume on your iphone and transmitting via airplay.

You will need to do what it says, contact iTunes Support. These are user-to-user support forums, if you thought you were contacting Apple by posting here. Go here:

Control multiple apple tv units with 1 remote app

Is it possible to control multiple apple TV units with 1 remote app on an iPhone/iPad? I have apple tv at home, set up under my own personal apple id. I have an apple tv unit at work which I want to use, but that uses our work apple id. can I control both units without having to log out of my personal id and then log into the work one?

On the ATV menu itself there is an option to name the ATV.
Does that not do it for you?

No.
Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, Need to Restore Your Device: Alternative Solutions
A
1. iOS- Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
2.Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
3. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
           1. iPad,iPod,iPod Touch Recovery Mode
           2. About Restrictions (parental controls) on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
If none of the above work for you, then:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
       other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
   2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
       until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

HT1947 Apple TV (2nd gen) and Remote App - no more connection

Since updating to the latest version of Apple TV (2nd gen) and Remote App for iPhone or iPad I can't connect any more. Worked for a short moment after restarting a few times but now no more. Must be a new bug, because it always worked before updating to iOS 5.1!
I tried with an iPhone 4S and and iPad 2.

Hi and thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately this didn't solve the issue. I tried almost everything now:
- I rebooted the WIFI rooter
- I resettled the apple TV
- I removed the cables of apple tv for a minute (I have a switch anyway to cut power off completely)
- I killed the remote app on the iPhone and iPad a few times
- I removed my account settings both on the i-devices and apple tv for home sharing a few times and activated them again
All of the devices are in the same wifi network and every device can connect perfectly to the internet.
The screen on the iPhone/iPad always just shows that I should activate home sharing on iTunes on the computer or on the apple tv with my account (what I did as mentioned above)
Any ideas, someone from Apple maybe?
Any ideas appreciated!

I have a 2007 20" iMac. Can I get a solid state hard drive installed? Can the Apple store do it? How long? What cost?

I have a 2007 20" iMac. Can I get a solid state hard drive installed? Can the Apple store do it? How long? What cost?

Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac. You should be able to set a password for it. Save it. Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer, I suppose, back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity. As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
This handy article from Apple explains how
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine and go for it. You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups of your stuff.

HT1923 did anyone get the apple application support was not found when trying to instal?

I am having trouble instaling itunes. has anyone got the apple application support was not found when trying to instal itunes? it looks like it is not installing all of files to my computer and it can not reach a certain folder

With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Can the Apple USB charger be used to charge other non-Apple USB devices?

Can the Apple USB charger be used to charge other non-Apple USB devices? I just purchased an electric toothbrush that uses a USB port to charge. If I'm traveling, I would like to consolidate and take only one charger. Would it be ok to use the apple charger for both items?

Yes, as long as your toothbrush doesn't require more than 5W power draw.

Can the apple superdrive connect and be used on an imac?

Can the Apple Superdrive be used with an iMac?

Apple's USB SuperDrive requires more power than is normally allowed for an USB device, and therefore isn't intended for Macs which shipped with an internal one. If you want, you can get it to work by editing one of the computer's plist files.
