Airdrop has disappeared from my iMac. I don't see it from my iPhone anymore. It was there yesterday and is not there today. Any ideas?

I like to use airdrop occasionally to transfer a photo quickly from my iPhone 5s to my iMac running Yosemite. Until today, I could do this easily. Now my iMac no longer appears as an Airdrop client and I don't see any Airdrop item in my iMac Finder. Any idea where it went?

I could see my iPhone from the iMac, just not the other way around. And both devices are on the same network. But your suggestions reminded me that I have been fooling around with my networks after adding a range extender to my router. So, even though both devices were on the same network, I tried restarting the iPhone and the iMac reappeared as an Airdrop client. Go figure. Thanks for your help!

My iphone 4s has the connect to itunes screen. I have tried to reset, recover, etc but I keep getting and error-51 message. Any ideas how I can get my phone working again? I am not worried about saving any info just having a phone to use!

I was in the middle of the iOS 8 update and tried to turn my phone off (yes, I realize this was dumb) But what happened was it tried to reset. Now, my iphone 4s has the connect to itunes screen. I have tried to reset, recover, etc but I keep getting and error -51 message. Any ideas how I can get my phone working again? I am not worried about saving any info just having a phone to use!

Try a Hard Reset.....
Press and hold the Wake / Sleep button AND the Home button at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears on the screen, it can take 10 or more seconds. Ignore the swipe to turn off message.

I dowloaded an album to my iPad from iTunes and now I have no iTunes app and all music on my iPad has disappeared. My iMac won't let me sync because it thinks all my music is already installed/

A FW cable would be far faster & Easier, but with Ethernet you need a compatible version of Migration Assistant running on both Macs.

I am running 10.8 and setup airport extreme to run music from my imac to my receiver in the other room. When I open sound from system preferences, I don't see an external device to choose, other then internal speakers. Any ideas?

Airport Express (the small Airport device, which is the only one with an audio connection) works through Airtunes, which only works with iTunes. The computer won't send ALL system sound to the Airport. If you actually want to send sound outside of iTunes, use Airfoil.

My external drive has disappeared although i shows up in disc utility, and flash drives also do not appear. Any ideas? Have tried restarting but.....

My back-up has stopped as my external drive is shown as "not accessible" and has disappeared from Finder although it shows up in Disc Utility. Similarly my USB flash drive has disappeared. Restarting does not help! Any ideas?

That's good news but maybe run a Repair Disk on it anyway given that it has been somewhat unpredictable.
With Time Machine, one expert helper here named pondini has an extensive knowledge of that software and has prepared a lot of material on it. Here is a link to some of it.

HT5517 I want to photo stream pix from my iMac to apple tv. When I try to enter the iCloud account name and password, the systems tells me that terms of service have changed and won't let me proceed. What's that about.

You need to reset the password for the "old" account, and then use that to turn off iCloud. Then you will be able to sign in with your new ID.
You can reset your password at iForgot.apple.com.
If you don't know the answers to the security questions, you will need to start there.

-If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
-If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

I can not dowload the new updated software for my Ipod touch 4G. When i do I get an error message that says Network connection has timed out. I have done the trouble shooting steps. Downloaded the latest version of Itunes, and checked network connection

Disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall during the download and update usually resolves the timeout error.

The share button disappeared from my Facebook add-on just before I upgraded to Firefox 5.0. I thought by upgrading and reinstalling the add-on it might come back, but it didn't. All other FB buttons are there, near as I can tell. Any ideas? I'm using XP3.

TRy to close itunes by double tapping the home button then slide up all of the open apps and try again.
another option is to turn off your ipad, logout from your itunes account and try again downloading the movie. If it still gives you error, call apple support and ask for itunes agent to see if there is something wrong with the movie you are trying to download

I am having trouble syncing my files in my CC storage between devices. If I upload files on my iMac, they don't appear in my CC iPhone app. Why? This is maddening, as I need to work between devices. Please advise.

We are all iphone userss just like you. You did not buy your iphone from us.
You are not addressing Apple here at all.
Did you buy the iphone ins the Middle East? If so, it will never have facetime. It is not allowed by the government.

Please always state your operating system when you have a question. Lion 10.7.2 minimum is required for iCloud; the Preference pane does not appear in earlier systems.
