Apple TV date zone incorrect. Apple making an incorrect assumption?

there are videos on my Mac being accessed from the Apple TV by sharing. the dates of the videos on the Apple TV are however almost 1 day ahead of the dates of the same videos on my Mac; i.e., the time zone on the Apple TV is wrong.
I live in Hong Kong but have a U.S.A. iTunes account which is registered with the Apple TV. I propose that since there are no options in the Apple TV to choose a time zone, that the Apple TV is using the iTunes account to assume a time zone. would I be correct in this?
if this is true, it's an error in logic. there are more than a few people living outside of their home countries but using their home iTunes accounts to view videos from home. the Apple TV should not be using the iTunes account to assume the time zone.
any comments?
should I report this bug in logic to Apple?
btw, this wasn't always the case. in fact, I believe the time zone was correct as late as a few months ago.
cheers,
Gregory

Good post.
Sadly AppleTV and/or iTunes are flakey i the extreme at re-establishing interrupted connections, Apple needs to sort this out.

My apple sales data from my app sales seems incorrect.Anyone else had same problem?

Hi people,
Am having massive problem accessing my sales data and when I do it's incorrect.Have had it escalated at Apple but they say there is "no way to access retrospective sales data".This was only for last month! So not very "retrospective".Has anyone else experienced the same problem?If so please let me know how you resolved it.
Thank you.

Sorry if this seems a dumb question but I'm almost incredulous at your suggestion. Are you saying that you have an app, which you designed, and is being sold in the App Store ... and Apple do not know how many have been sold.
Are you expecting a royalty payment on this?
Please tell me I have misunderstood.

Under Date & Time Preferences, Apple's automatic time zone setting puts some Aleutian Islands in the wrong time zone.

I've been checking all around to find a source to this problem and it seems to continue leading back to where the problem may be with Apple's time zone referencing software. Some time zone maps incorrectly place all the Aleutian Islands in the Aleutian/Hawaiian Time Zone, but several of the eastern Aleutian Islands should be in the Alaska Time Zone instead. I wonder if Apple's time zone software is referencing an incorrect time map.
Currently, I do a lot of travelling with my laptop and everytime I return home, I have to reset my time preferences to a manual setting. It's a real nuisance which should be unnecessary with todays technology. Any help finding a solution would be appreciated.

Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy then select the Privacy tab.
Make sure: Enable Location Services is selected.
If that was already selected, try this article > About Location Services / Lion
The information applies to Mavericks as well.

Hey donnieandjamie31,
It sounds like you are not getting the email to reset your password. If you have a rescue email setup for your Apple ID, the reset password email will be sent there and not your Apple ID email address:
When you provide a rescue email address, all future security emails, such as password resets from iForgot, will be sent to the address provided.

You might want to check your other email accounts for the password reset email, including their Spam folders. If you continue to have issues, please contact our Account Security Team:

I just downloaded IOS 6.1.2 and it won't recognize my password. I have reset it on my Apple ID and it still says it's incorrect.

I just downloaded IOS 6.1.2 on my iPhone 4 and it won't recognize my password. I have reset it on my Apple ID and it still says it's incorrect. What do I need to do?

There are two more things to try. If the first thing you try fails, try the next.
Two Button Reset.
This is the least likely to result in loss of data. Read that again, especially the phrase "least likley."
Unplug the phone form the computer.
Press and hold both the home and the sleep/wake buttons (ignore the red slider) until you see the silver Apple logo.
When you see the logo, let both buttons go.
If this worked, you should see an icon instructing you to connect to iTunes. My guess is that the reset did not work.
DFU Restore
This will very likley result in loss of data.
Plug the iPhone into the computer.
Ensure that it is running the lates version of iTunes and that it has access to the internet.
Press and hold both the home and sleep/wake buttons for exactly eight seconds.
Release only the sleep/wake button but continue to hold the home button for another five seconds.
Let go of the home button, then look at the computer screen for an instructional popup.
The popup should say "iTunes has detected a device in covery mode. . .(etc)" Click accept to all boxes and let iTunes download and install all of the latest device Firmware and Software.
If no popup appears, repeat the above DFU instructions. If you 've never done a DFU, it may take about three attempts to get the timing right.

"iCloud Restore from Backup" gives error "Incorrect Apple ID or Password"

I have an iPhone 5 (iOS 6.1.2) that was just replaced at the Genius Bar today due to some intermittent camera and home button issues.
Everything was normal when starting up the newly exchanged phone that they gave me. It gets through the activation step in the startup process and when I get to the screen to select "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter my Apple ID and password it instantly spits out an alert that says:
Incorrect Apple ID or Password
Try another Apple ID
( OK )
I have entered, what I know to be, the correct username and password now 10+ times and it gives me the same message. I know it's correct because I am able to login to icloud.com, appleid.apple.com, the app store on my iPad normally with the same login credentials and everything works. But something about the startup screen is not accepting my username and password. They fishy thing about it is that it doesnt seem to check for the server, it just seems to tell me its incorrect before even taking the time to check whether it's incorrect or not.
Naturally, the next thing I did was a DFU restore of the phone to make sure it wasnt a software issue and that it had the lastest software update. All the same results. If I go down the path of "Set up as new iPhone" it activates normally and then I can even log into iCloud normally from inside the OS once I've gotten there. That, however, does not help me get my backup text messages, photos, apps, app data, etc.
Anyone else having this issue? I never usually have issues with my iPhone/iPad and this one is especially infuriating.
Any help/information would be much appreciated.

Freddie,
I associated my Apple ID in their system as an Apple Reseller account because I was working for a third-party Apple Authorized Dealer a few months ago. After that point, this is when I noticed this happened.
Tier 2 of AppleCare told me they believe this is the reason I've been having problems being able to restore because Apple Reseller accounts are not "iCloud Eligible"
I replied and told them it was ok for them to remove my account as reseller status and after multiple attempts to reach the advisor assigned to my case, he stopped responding.
I fear I may be out of luck. Are you by any chance an Apple reseller or associated with an Apple reseller?

Incorrect Apple ID in App Store / How to do a fresh Lion install

I'm trying to redownload the OSX Lion Install App. I held the Option key when clicking purchases and instead of saying "Installed", it now says "Download". However, even though I'm signed into the App Store with my personal Apple ID, it asks me to authenticate but defaults to another apple ID of a person I don't know.
I purchased Lion when it came out as an upgrade, so I don't understand why it won't authenticate. When I delete the incorrect Apple ID and enter my own, I get this unknown error box: http://www.evernote.com/shard/s14/sh/777881b0-45fc-4773-8f54-eb5f00c31646/d54b1d 60dc9d1ad581629c56e50b5fe0
"Unknown Error"
That error is followed by this one: http://www.evernote.com/shard/s14/sh/97428d42-fdec-401c-8199-79cc99cbbb57/ff3791 6bdafb4add24123f522b16b3ed
"we could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)"
In reality, I'm simply trying to wipe the hard drive clean as I sold this macbook air on ebay and want to deliver it as a fresh install. But when I use the reocovery partition to reinstall Lion, it forces me to connect to the internet and automatically imports all of my user data, which defeats the point!
Any help in resolving this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

How do I remove an incorrect apple ID from an iPad and replace it with the correct one?

How can I remove an incorrect Apple ID from my ipad and replace it with the correct one?

Hello Shy guy,
You can try this:
1. Go to the iTunes Store or App Store
2. Scroll down, there you will see Apple ID: "your email" (below Redeem and Send Gift)
3. Tap on that button
4. Tap on Sign Out
Now you should be able to use another Apple ID.

My system software has crashed, and I am hoping to use an apple certified data recovery specialist in Atlanta. Who can I use and still have my warranty coverage after attempting to recover the data?

How to I get up to date information in Apple Maps?

I just upgraded to Mavericks and was trying Apple Maps, but the maps are showing parks that haven't existed for 10 years, and are missing businesses that have been in my area for over 10 years?
Is there a way to get more up to date information in Apple Maps?

Not sure what you want me to say. Again, the data is as up to date as the providers have it. There's no "cache" or other function you can clear to get newer data. Why the providers, which you can see listed here if you wish:
http://gspa21.ls.apple.com/html/attribution.html
have such out-of-date information I can't begin to guess.

I recently lost my MacBook pro which was synched with my apple tv.Now I'm having a problem to bring back my data from my apple tv to my new MacBook

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are referring to the first generation Apple TV, then you cannot sync content which is stored on its hard drive back to iTunes.

How can i put a time/date stamp in Apple contacts, "Note"

how can i automatically put a time/date stamp in Apple contacts, "Note"
ei , when i enter a new note to a contact. I want the time and date to automatically show at each note.

This is not a feature in Contacts. I suggest you send Apple feedback to let them know you would like to see this option.
http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
You can easily add the date stamp using an app like TextExpander.

Question to recruitment/Appl. master data u2013 PB40.

Hi, I have a question to recruitment/Appl. master data u2013 PB40.
Maybe someone can help?
I have created an own candidate action similar to the SAP action u201CInitial entry of basic data.u201D
The Customizing of the new action is the same like that of the SAP action.
The problem is that the masks are different:
The original SAP action "Initial entry of basic data" starts with:
Transaction: PB40
Program (screen): SAPMPAP4
Screen number: 100
Program (GUI): SAPMPAP4
GUI status: FAS1
The action I created starts with:
Transaction: PB40
Program (screen): MP400000
Screen number: 2000
Program (GUI): MP400000
GUI Status: INS
Why do the program, the screen number and the GUI status differ and how to change it?
Thanks in advance!
Yours sincerely,
Thomas

any talented guy do this way.
