Recently updated the the apple tv remote app for my iPhone4. Now can no longer turn on the apple tv "box" on/off using iPhone app as I used to do before the update.  Only thing that shows on iPhone screen is music library.  Home Sharing is on. Any help appreciated.  Sorry if this is not exactly the right place to post this!

One clue: I have found a reliable way to solve the problem when it happens.
In my network, I have the main Airport Extreme (Gen 1) which is connected to my router, which distributes IP addresses to my internal subnet.  The other two AEs (one Gen 4, one Gen 5) are set to extend the network.
When I get this problem with an AppleTV 2 that can "see" my library, but when I try to open it, it says it couldn't find the library, it seems to have to do with a change in which Airport Extreme it's talking to.
If I restart the main Airport Extreme from the Airport Utility, effectively restarting the entire wireless network, then when the network resumes, every AppleTV 2 is happy again.
Unfortuntely, the problem does seem to recur - but I'm wondering if it's because temporary interference leads an AppleTV 2 to try to connect to a different AE, and somehow that's mucking with the Home Sharing.  Remember, internet access (Trailers, Store, Netflix) have no issues.  Purely Home Sharing.

  • When using an external projector, the only thing that shows up on the screen is my desktop screen

    When I'm presenting using an external projector, the only thing that shows up on the view screen is my desktop screen.  It will also display a powerpoint file, but only in slide show mode.  No other files (word, excel, etc) or safari will display.  How can I get what I see on my computer screen to show up on the external screen?

    Check out this support site about using two monitors, since that's what you're doing when you're projecting:
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202351
    You can either set it to "mirror" or arrange the monitors side by side. Then when you want to show the working window on your projector slide it in the direction you set as the second monitor. Many teachers will do this to show a video or powerpoint to their class while working on another document or answering emails.

    Have you tried to give your iPad a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if it helps.

    Because the developer needs to create and maintain the two versions separately and has chosen to charge for the Mac OS X version.

    Are you using mirroring or using airplay within iTunes? If you are truly mirroring then you can view anything that is displayed on your computer through Apple Tv
    Or provide more info on your issue

    At the present time, the only way to keep photos in iCloud indefinitely is to add them to a shared stream, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99.  However, photos added to a shared stream will be a lower resolution than the original photos.  These shared streams can be shared with your friends.
    If you add the photos to your normal photo stream, they will be deleted from iCloud (and all other devices/computers) when you delete them from your phone.  And although your backup includes camera roll photos, if you delete them from your phone and continue backing it up, the backup containing the deleted photos will be overwritten by one that doesn't and they will be lost.
    This is likely to change in the fall with iOS 8 and its iCloud Photo Library feature (see http://www.apple.com/ios/ios8/photos/).

    I’m having an intermittent problem with my midi controllers triggering Mainstage 3.
    I’m using a PreSonus Firebox audio interface.
    It’s been working fine for months, but now when I first turn on the computer in the morning , I’m not able to trigger MainStage from the keyboard.  I tried different midi controllers, different keyboards, different midi cords, and check midi preferences.  The audio interface is working fine and is recogonized, but the midi doesn’twork.  I re-started the computer several times and then finally it miraculously starts working again.
      I’ve been having to this every day now.  Any help or ideas is very much appreciated.

    I Had the same problem with a FireStudio. Try unplugging the FireWire plug and the power plug. Wait for a few seconds, then plug both back in. The light on my FireStudio was flashing blue/red which means "not connecting." I did what I just described, and everything works again. Hope it works for you.

    To begin, what ADA-compliant options are available to work with a service representative? Good question, and one that I don't know the answer to.  Does anything on this page help? Products & Services Overview | Verizon Wireless
    1) I was charged for service following the cancellation of my service; this includes a period following cancellation during which no service was provided.  Service is normally billed through the end of the billing cycle, whether service is provided or not.  "Cancellations will become effective on the last day of that month’s billing cycle, and you are responsible for all charges incurred until then." After working with a representative in person, I was told that my final bill would be adjusted to reflect the legally billable amount. According to their legal docs, the "leagally billable amount" is through the end of the billing cycle. This was three weeks ago and I haven't received a response, and I haven't been able to find a way to pursue a resolution - What can I do to help move this process forward?
    2) It appears I will be unable to pay my bill after this dispute has been reviewed. My phone number is no longer with Verizon. The online bill payment login requires a phone number - I have never been provided with any other account number. Unfortunately, Verizon appears to close access to online bill payment when the phone number is transferred, even to accounts with unpaid invoice amounts. How can I pay my bill online?  You cannot pay online once the account is cancelled.  You will be mailed a paper copy of the final bill, and you can mail a check, or possibly call in and pay over the phone.  But online is no longer an option once the account is cancelled.

  • Only Part of Music Library Home Shared

    Is there any obvious explanation for why only 51 of my 293 albums show up on iPad 2 using Home Sharing?

    Just to be honest, I find the FAQs annoying.  Most people I know have already been through all the stuff covered in the FAQs, and that is why they post here.  If the answer was in the FAQ, why post?
    Home Sharing is extremely buggy in my view.  For instance, there doesn't seem to be a protocol that designates who the master/slave is.  I can have my iPad set for Home Sharing and my PC set for same.  But if I close down iTunes, the iPad acts as if Home Sharing is still active --- the shared library titles and icons all remain, but obviously you can't play anything.  If you reopen iTunes on your PC, evem though you didn't close down home sharing in the File menu, the Home Sharing link is broken, but yet both iTunes and the iPad have no display that notes that --- both appear to be set to Home Sharing.  Then one must launch into the game of logging out of home sharing on either or both devices and logging back in.  Although not 100% reliable, I've found by exiting Home Sharing on the PC and then signing back in, I can reestablish the link to the iPad.  EXCEPT --- if I have made any major changes in my iTunes library, the iPad doesn't perceive these and operates from the previously shared library settings.  So now you are in the business of getting the iPad to sync up to the new library.
    I don't know why or how my iPad only recognized 51 of the 293 albums in my library, but the only way I was able to get rid of that "memory" on the iPad, and get it to sync up to the entire library using Home Sharing was to connect the thing up to my PC, and restore it to factory settings via iTunes.
    Do appreciate you offering a suggestion, but I believe Home Sharing needs some monitoring features built in so users can see just what the status is... (I know this is anathema to Apple types, but if it doesn't work 100% of the time without user machinations, you need some ways to see what is going on).

  • I have purchased music from itunes on my iphone and it won't show up in my Ipod music library on my phone.  It shows up in my itunes library on my computer.  This is a recent glitch as up until this week purchased music downloads fine on phone.

    I purchased music on itunes on my iphone and the songs won't show up in my music library on the phone.  They are on my computer itunes library but it won't let me transfer the purchases back to my phone (which I have never had to do before).  Never had this problem before this week when purchasing music on my iphone.
    My Itunes library on my laptop is slightly different from my Iphone library so I don't want to erase and sync the entire library.

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • I have connected my MacBook pro with the mini hdmi connecter. The background screen is the only thing that shows up on the tv.

    HiI need help connecting the MacBook pro to the HDTV. I have the attachment and have it connected but I want to play videos or video from the Internet and all I can see is the background screen of the Mac. Hope the solution is simple :)

    If you can see the background on your second monitor, the solution is, ...
    .. your Mac and the external display are working correctly!
    You have created an Extended Desktop. The up-down-left-right arrangement is done in the Arrange pane in
    System Preferences > Displays > Arrange
    The second screen is added to one edge of the first screen. The mouse moves freely off the edge of one screen and onto the other screen.  You can drag and drop files or windows from one screen to the other.

  • Why are all of my hotmail folders not showing up? They previously were and now the only thing that shows up his inbox and trash. I have tried deleting and reinstalling hotmail under settings and add mail account but it is still only giving me the inbox.

    I can access all my folders in hotmail when I log on from google but they don't show up and just the general mailbox. I don't want to have to logon to Google every time I want to check my Hotmail but I also need to be able to see all my subfolders that I created under the inbox. There are many time to do not wish to delete the message but at the same time I don't want to leave them in the inbox forever.  I tried restarting my iPhone 4s which has the update seven-point whatever it is now and also went and try to create an exchange account where it did not let me do it. Any help or suggestions as welcome. If you could please send answer to my email at [email protected] I would really appreciate it and I probably will forget my password here to get back on again

    Try deleting your hotmail account and then adding it back as an Outlook account instead of "other". It worked for me.

  • Webcam the only thing that shows up in the device selection

    I am trying to use Adobe flash media encoder 3.2 it only shows my webcam under devices that I can select (with two different names). I can't get it to show my computer screen. If someone could give me step by step instructions on how to get my computer screen to show up that would be great.

    Dear Sherri
    Please could you let us know which version of Photoshop you are using and whether the extensions menu is now greyed out? If you used Adobe add-ons to download your products, it will be easy to reinstall them directly from the 'My Add-ons' link on the left-hand side of the add-ons website: creative.adobe.com/addons.
    If, however, you are a CS6 user and use Adobe Exchange to obtain products for Photoshop, the 'My Stuff' section of the panel, as well as Extension Manager, will give you an indication of what should and shouldn't be currently installed in your copy of Photoshop.
    Kind regards
