How do I get something out of the earbud jack?

I have a Nano 3rd Generation, and got a small ball stuck in the earbud jack. Does anyone have an idea of how I can get it out? It's exactly the size of the cylinder that the jack plugs into. I can't shake it out. I've tried heating a needle and deflating the ball -- that didn't work. The jack is too narrow for any tweezers or pliers. I'm out of ideas.

What if you try to pull it out with a toothpick or paperclip? If nothing else, bring it down to your local Apple Store/Genuis Bar or Apple Authorized Reseller and they should be able to help.

HT4191 I have Notes that transferred to email when I set up a new email acct. They no longer appear in Notes. I can only access them in the email acct. How do I get them out of the email acct and back to the Notes app?

I have Notes that transferred to an Email acct when I set up the acct. The Notes no longer appear in the Notes app only in the Email acct. How do I get them out of the Email acct and back to Notes? I stopped at an Apple store and they told me to copy them from the email back to Notes. But when I was in the email acct, I could not find a way to copy them. Shouldn't Notes remain in Notes unless I specifically send them somewhere else?

Go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, select that email account on the right-hand side of the screen and turn Notes 'on' for it - they should then appear in the Notes app instead of as an email folder in the Mail app (they will still be linked to that email account, so you may need to tap the 'Accounts' button at at the top left of the list of notes)

A quick Google search for Error 2001 would indicate that this occurs when you have a jailbroken phone or were trying to downgrade iOS. Is that true for you?

Thanks Diggie, your response was very close. I clicked on the email several times. It came up and gave me the option to Send. I clicked Send and my recipients received the email.
I did not have to delete and reinstall my email account.
Have a good day.

I have a device that shows up in my airplay device list on my iMac, and my phone. This device does not exist. How do I get it out of the list? I would like to drop it before I add new airplay devices to my network.

I have a device that shows up in my airplay device list in iTunes, and on my iPhone that does not exist. How do I delete it? I have OS X 10.10.1 on my iMac, and iOS 8.1.2 on my iPhone 5. I would like to get it out before I add new airplay devices to my network.

I called Apple tech support. The device turns out to be a WiFi extender. I never would have guessed that the extender would show up on the list since I wouldn't think of it as an airplay device, and in the list, it shows a little speaker icon. In the process of talking with Apple, I gained a greater understanding of how airplay works.
It turns out that there is no stored list of devices in a file on the mac, or anywhere else. I have seen a lot of traffic on the web from people trying to modify this list, but there isn't one. iTunes, and other devices simply poll the network for airplay devices from time to time.
Have a very happy holiday!
I would like to get rid of "just give me the aster, and stop wasting my time", and replace it with my name. The Apple tech support guy never saw that before. Just my luck.

How do I get sound out of the HDMI?

Hi!
The headline says pretty much what I want to ask.
I tried to connect my Samsung LED TV to my MacBook Pro using an HDMI cable and an adaptor from HDMI to Thunderbolt (the little lightening-port). I bought an adaptor that supports sound transfer so that should not be the problem. I chose audio-in from the proper HDMI channel on my TV but the sound is still coming out from the laptop and the TV says nada...
Anyone have an idea what I might missing?

tjk: I think the quoted message simply indicates that there is no output volume control provided within the computer when the HDMI connection is the selected output device. This standard message appears because the audio signal sent via the HDMI cable is digital, not analog. When the audio output is digital, whether it's via mini-Displayport or a mini-TOSLink connection to the headphone port, the volume is always controlled externally — by the TV set, amplifier, receiver, or powered speaker system to which the signal is sent, not by the computer. A digital audio signal contains no volume information. The device that converts it to an analog signal and relays it to the loudspeaker(s) must provide the volume information.
Thanks eww, I was not aware of that. Makes perfect sense.
Poor, I'm not sure where that leaves us, but if the TV is on and the volume turned on/not muted, and still no audio coming through, I'd try a PRAM Reset and an SMC Reset:

How do i get things out of the cloud?

suddenly, every tv show and song i have ever bought is showing up on my apple tv and my iphone. I guess they are stored in the cloud? i want to delete some of this media forever. how do i do that?

That's great. Thank you. I feel I am understanding a little bit more about my "cloud."
So - my purchases will not fill up said cloud.
But, presumably, a day will come when I am ashamed and or ambivalent about all the episodes of REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS staring back at me from my Apple TV.
It seems I can hide them, but I can't delete them. Not really.
So, this posse of botoxed ladies in high heeled sandals skittering around ritzy locales (nary a "cloud" in their skies) are with me forever. Like a virus. Or a pack of anciet Greek Harpies. Even if I can't see them on my playlist, even if they are invisible ghosts, I still know they are there. They exist always.
I mean, even if I were able to delete the episodes from my Apple products (which I love BTW) there is always the chance that I could RUN INTO one of the actual flesh (questionable) and blood "ladies" in REAL LIFE - on the streets of Los Angeles.
How would that affect my cloud storage?
If I bump into Taylor Armstrong and ask her about experiences on the show - am I risking anything intangible or invisible? Does Taylor keep old episodes on her Apple TV, in her cloud? Now that the show has driven her husband to suicide and then publically aired his "execution" (and let's be honest, that's exactly what season 2 was) has Taylor thought about expunging the record of her exploitation from her own cloud? Is the deal she made with Bravo more binding than the User Agreement she (we) never even scrolled through before joining iTunes? Are the mistakes she/we made going to follow us around for the rest of our lives? And continue on into the millenia as our children, Taylor's daughter Kennedy, someday gain access to our purchase lists and see exactly what we've done?
I bought these shows, I watched these episodes. I can hide them, but they'll always be there - for me (against me).
Something good can come from this, right?
It's all going to be OK?

How do you get photos out of the ipad to a retail store to print i.e. Target, Walgreens etc.?

i have photos in albums on my ipad that i can't see on a pc or as on option to upload to a vendor. How can i make them accessible?

Walgreens has an app for that it the app store. Ironically enough it is called "Walgreens". You can take a look at that one. Don't know about Target,

Getting something out of the firewall list

I installed Adobe cs3 and then uninstalled it and now I have Adobe Version Cue CS3 Server in my firewall list right under Personal File Sharing.
Is there any way to get it gone seeing as I don't use it or want it?

If all else fails, trash...
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.sharing.firewall.plist
/Users/nnnnLibrary/Preferences/com.apple.internetconnect.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
Then reboot and setup your Networks again
Of course you don't have to Trash them... you can drag them to the Desktop for replacement if it doesn't work.

Trying to use airplay mirroring on ipad air. The airplay switch does not show in control panel, only airdrop. How do i get airdrop out of the way to find airplay switch?

NO airplay switch in control panel, only air drop. How do I find airplay switch?

Unplug the Apple TV then plug it back in, do the same for your router, then reset your iPad by holding down the home and sleep buttons, waiting for the Apple logo, then let go of the buttons.

How do I get video out on the 3gs?

I have the isound av&sync cable and audio works but no video.

hi
I think I have found the app, I was not seeing the obvious, so I can now play videos on the Ipod itself. With regards the cable it is a Dexim unit which plugs into the long Ipod socket on the base.From that unit there is a cable terminated with jackplugs.One end into the dexim unit another into the projector. As I said it worked fine on a 2nd generation, I just played the video on the 2G Ipod and it came thru onto the projector. Hence my thought that it was a setting and/or app on the 4thG Ipod.
Again many thanks for all your help, at least it is improving my knowledge of Ipod
Cheers
PS started with the ipod download guide but the problem isnt addressed hence my plea on this forum.
PPS I've emailed Dexim to see if just in case the unit I have isn't compatible with 4thg Ipod for some reason

The power went out and when it returned the network name and password was lost. I can see the network in my connections and connect to it. How do I get it back to the orginal name and password. I have an HP laptop

Chances are, there was a signficant power surge or voltage fluctuation just before the power went out. This type of thing can cause the AirPort Extreme to reset back to default settings.
If this occurs, your only option is re-configure the device again, just as you did originally.
In order to improve your chances this next time this happens, (especially if you live in an area where thunderstorms are severe), a good quality surge suppressor / voltage limiting power strip will really help, and may save you the entire device or a nearby computer next time something like this occurs.
