Any tips of physically attaching apple tv to a projector that's suspended from the ceiling?

I have a really convenient 1.5 foot hdmi cable that I want to attach my apple tv to my projector with, but the projector is suspended from the ceiling. The idea is that it will be out of the way and truly "wireless". Only problem is I'm worried about it falling, breaking, etc. I was thinking velcro tape might work? Any ideas? Thank

Cool. After inspecting it some more, there is an entire flat side on the projector that has no vents for fans, so I think the velcro idea will work fine. I'll let you know if there are any interference issues. I hope not!
I'd be more tempted to attach it to the projector mount than the projector as even if there are no vents you don't really want to have a 'not by design' hot spot in the projector as AppleTv itself will generate heat. Personally I'd probably run a long HDMI cable from wherever the HDMI equipped devices and AV amp were. Maybe this is more for presentations or something via Airplay not a home theatre environment.
Make it accessible enough that the remote will control it (reboot by holding menu and down navigation keys together for several seconds). If you use Remote app on iphone/iPad you won't be able to restart easily if you need to with that (the only other way is to unplug/disconnect power).

Can apple unlock an iPhone 4 that was bought from the apple store?

I bought an iPhone 4 last year from the apple store, my network provider cannot unlock it as I didn't get it through them. Hope someone can help.

Only the carrier (not Apple) can initiate the unlocking process. In the US, AT&T has not and will not unlock the iPhone for anyone for any reason.
If your network provider cannot or will not unlock your phone, then you phone cannot be unlocked. If you need an unlocked phone, sell yours and buy a factory unlocked phone.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

To create a new apple ID, if I sign out of the current Apple ID account, and then sign in with a newly created account, will I lose any songs or apps on my Iphone and Macbook Pro computer that were downloaded from the old apple ID?

No, you will not loose anything. However, if you ever need to update any of that previously purchased content, or re-download it, you will have to use the older AppleID. Purchases are permanently tied to the AppleID you use when making the purchase.

Hi,
Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
Turn the Phone On...
If that does not help... See Here:

Trying to update apps but keep getting message that my Apple ID can't be used to purchase from the iTunes store but it works on my iPhone & computer?

OS is 5.1.1 but it says no updates available. I've had the iPod for a few years but if I remember right it's 3rd Gen. Model #MC011C. I have no problems purchasing or updating apps on my iPhone, and I went to iTunes in my computer and purchased a song just to see if I could, and didn't have any problem. And I have tons of memory left on the iPod.

Thank you for your answer
I went to the App Store app and selected "Updates" along the bottom menu. It said 11 updates were available. I then chose "Update All." Before any updates could begin, the message popped up that "This Apple ID cannot be used to make purchases from the iTunes Store." That popped up twice, then the same message with, "Please enter another Apple ID" added. I tried 3 separate times (getting all 3 pop-up messages each time). I then tried updating apps via the App store app on my iPhone 4 and it worked fine. Then I signed into the iTunes store on my computer and bought a song (thankfully one I like ) and that worked fine. I tried on my iPod one more time before finally coming here to post a question.
A few minutes after posting my question (and the reason I came back here, not knowing I'd received an answer) I thought I'd try one more time. This time, it worked with no problem and all the apps updated. So I don't know if somehow my purchasing something in iTunes on my computer helped, or creating this community ID did, or if it was just some temporary glitch. Whatever it was, it's working now. Hopefully it doesn't happen again.
Thanks again!

Hacked Message: Your Apple ID was just used to download Podcasts from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID

So I just got a message from Apple saying
"Your Apple ID was just used to download Podcasts from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID"
I am new to Apple products and signed up to the app store about an hour before but have not downloaded any apps yet.
I also turned on iCloud Drive.
Neither of these are Podcasts and I do not have any Podcasts on my device.
The message is a really poor warning, it could for instance list the IP address which would immediately tell me if it was me.
It could list what type of device it was.
It could list what Podcast was downloaded.
But no, just some random message, probably generated by the really bad default iPhone settings that put ease of use before security.
I have a long complex password that I do not want ot have to change just because Apple generates a stupid message.
On Google you have a log of all logins and devices, is there something similar with Apple, so I can figure this out?

I have not down downloaded any podcasts and there are no podcasts in the podcasts app, of course if Apple were to list the podcast that was downloaded, the IP address and the device it might help one dismiss the message.
I am running the latest v8.1.1 although how the version of my OS related to a message generated by Apple servers is beyond me, unless my device is not authenticating properly so Apple thinks I am someone else but then as I have not downloaded any Podcasts that would not seem to be the issue.
It does NOT say you downloaded a podcast. First, podcasts are not downloaded from the App Store; they are downloaded from the iTunes store.
It's very clear to me; the app named "Podcasts" was downloaded, not a podcast. "Podcasts" is a app provided by Apple for managing and downloading podcasts.

Have iPad Air and Apple Wireless Keyboard. Can I access emoji from the wireless keyboard?

RE: iPad Air and Apple Wireless Keyboard
HI, I have an iPad Air paired with an Apple Wireless Keyboard. Can I access emoji from the wireless keyboard?
Thanks for any help on this subject!

Eureka! I kept searching and found the solution. So, if anyone wants to know here is the solution: press fn and the up arrow on F Keys (top) row (it's the one all way to the right. The iPad keyboard will then pop up on the iPad and from there you can access the emoji keyboard.

A track that I bought from the store only play partially as if it didn't completely download. This was some time a go and there is no record in my iTunes account of its purchase. Any thoughts to a solution?

I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

Is there any way of saving progress in a game/app when you remove it from the ipad to the cloud

Is there any way of saving progress in a game/app when you remove it from the ipad to the cloud.
Basically i have a 16gb ipad2 (big mistake) so space on the ipad is precious. obviously i occasionally need to remove games/apps to make way for other apps from my cloud. The problem is, when I remove an app to make way for the new app I lose all my progress in that game apart from the option to save leader-board stats (which is the least important thing to me). Its very annoying to get so far in a game only to have to remove it to make way for a movie and lose all my progress!!!!!
Any way round this?

I do not know how to save game data when deleting an app, but as for updating, if you connect the ipad to a computer and do the update through itunes, you will not have to download the update package to the ipad just to the computer. so you don't have to free up quite so much space, as for movie and photo storage you can look at the sandisk wireless and airstash wireless SD card adapters, they create their own wireless network and come with apps that allow you to store and then stream movies to the ipad instead of loading them to the ipad storage.

I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver.

I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting the iPhone with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver for Windows 8, iTunes and iPhone. MS does not care! This seems to be a general problem with Windows 8 that a number of drivers that used to work with Windows 7 now do not work, ie. iPhone to iTunes, HTC to HTCSync, Samsung to Kies etc. I need this connection to work in order to syncronize with Outlook and my iTunes library.

There will be a new version of iTunes released this month... no one forced you to upgrade prior to a supported version of iTunes being released.
