Apple TV on vacation

Hi,
I want to bring my Apple TV on my vacation to Portugal. ( I live in Ireland and my itunes acct is an Irish account)
We have wireless broadband and and old IMAC in the apartment.
Will it work OK to rent movies ETC in Portugal ?

Welcome to the Apple community.
I believe you will be able to use your iTunes account in Portugal.

ITunes Downloads Same Episode Simulataneously?

iTunes 6.0.1, 12" PowerBook G4 867 MHz, 256 MB RAM, Mac OS X 10.4.3
iTunes 6.0.1, 15" eMac 1.0 GHz, 256 MB RAM, Mac OS X 10.3.9
I am downloading 5 episodes of "Monk" and we thought that I I used Advanced>Check for Purchases on our eMac that maybe we could download more from that purchase to speed it up (for instance, if the PowerBook downloaded the first episode, the eMac should download the second, right?). Well, instead of following what we wanted it to do, the eMac started downloading the same episode. Isn't that kind of a purchasing workaround? People could get all their computers to download the same purchases at the same time! Very interesting.
P.S. I realize that it's okay to copy the episode to another authorized computer, but isn't this a little odd?

To help others, there are some things that helped me out. (Again, this is on my mac, not an i device)
- Force quit itunes, then launch it again.   Often the downloads will resume
- in itunes, click on Store -> Check for available downloads - that might get a download restarted
- Check the folder ~/music/itunes/itunes music/downloads.   There may be folders/files for the hung downlaods.   Trash them then try re-try one of the two uggestions above
- in preferences -> store check the Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases box.   This fixed a stubborn one for me. After checking the box, waiting a while, then quitting and re-launching itunes, my failed music downloads showed up in my music folder with a cloud next to them - that let me download a few stubbon songs.
Of course, none of this should be happening at all.   I'm just wondering if all of Apple is on vacation and this won't get addressed until January...

AirPlay without network

I want to take my Apple TV on vacation with me to stream movies from my MacBook Pro to a TV.
Is it possible to stream video directly from the MacBook Pro without connecting both it and the Apple TV to a separate wifi network?
Wouldn't I be able to set up my own network on the Mac and have e Apple TV join that? Then stream via that connection?

>Is it possible to stream video directly from the MacBook Pro without connecting both it and the Apple TV to a separate wifi network?
Can not be on a seprate WiFi network. Both your ATV and MBP would have to be with you on the same network. And I would use a wired conenction, not WiF. You will need a router to connect them. A crossover cable will not work. It needs the network services DHCP, DNS, etc. And it will only play the content on the MBP so nothing on iCloud.

I'm on vacation and my laptop was stolen. Is there a way to find my serial number without the original packaging? I bought those apple classes when I bought the laptop

I'm on vacation and my laptop was stolen. Is there a way to find my serial number without the original packaging? I bought those apple classes when I bought the laptop.

Sorry my error. It only shows the computer name not the serial number. Go with "themachead" response copied below:
In your Apple ID - Profiles:My Products if you filled it out. Not only that you might be able to, via Apple ID & iCloud sign up/in and activate find my Mac. If you have not activated iCloud you can do that too.

I am in the us on vacation in the usa but i am from canada and apple tv will not permit me to download any movies. Help

I am in the usa on vacation. I am Canadian and there is an apple tv in teh condo i am renting. However when I want to download a movie it tells me that I can not do so because my account is a Canadian account. Can anyone help.

That is because the unit is set up under the US and your account is only authorized for the Canadian store. You would have to change the location via settings.

APPLE HELP! I Lost Part of My Vacation - Photos and Videos are disappearing.

First my videos from my vacation last weekend disappeared. Then photos of my prescriptions taken 3 weeks ago are gone. Then pictures of my car disappeared. When I restored one of the car pictures came back but the other is gone. APPLE ARE YOU LISTENING? What do I do?
APPLE ARE YOU LISTENING? It seems not since I see a lot of this question and no answer.

Well, a program that looks at my backups told the whole story. At 10:49pm on July 30th icloud didn't backup my iphone, it erased data instead. Few photos and no videos survived. Everything after July 4th is gone. I will still go to the "genius" bar and see what they can do. Maybe there is something hidden. .II'
BTW...I'm not the only one. An IT friend is hearing this from others.

I have disabled my phone on vacation and do not have my MAC Book with me if i take it into an apple store can they restore it so i can atleast access my phone?

I have disabled my IPhone while on vacation and do not have my MAC book with me and it will not let me restore it on someone elses computer. If I take it into an Apple store can they do this?

More than likely, they can. So long as you're in the same country you live in.

I am going on vacation and do not have other Apple products. Is there some way to retrieve my iMac info? on another pc?

I AM GOING ON VACATION AND DO NOT HAVE OTHER APPLE PRODUCTS. IS THERE A WAY TO RETRIEVE MY IMAC INFO?

IS THERE A WAY TO RETRIEVE MY IMAC INFO?
Are you asking if another computer, Mac or PC, can connect to your Mac at home over the internet and access your data? If so, it is a bit challenging for a novice, but yes, it can easily be done with the right software on both computers.

Iphone 4s won't turn on. broken lock button. It just randomly turned off and won't turn back on. Can't go to apple store because going on vacation. Please help

iPhone 4ws won't turn on. I have a broken lock button. It just randmoly turned off and won't turn on. I can't go to the apple store because I'm going on vacation. Someone please help

Your phone is broken; there's no magic solution for you. You can try plugging it in to wall power and see if this turns the phone on, but if it doesn't, you can either go on vacation without your iPhone, or make the time to visit the Apple store before you leave.

There's an apple tv in my vacation rental

I am renting a vacation home for the summer and I see there is an apple tv that I can access.
Is there a way to log in to my accounts (apple id, hbo go, netflix) without erasing the owners settings?
Will there be a way to remove my log-ins when I depart so that other renters won't be able to access my accounts when I leave?

If the owners are renting with access to their account that sounds distinctly dodgy in terms of iTunes terms and conditions.
Provided you can access Settings I see no reason why you can't reset to factory settings which will erase their info, let you enter yours, then erase when you leave - up to them then to re-enter their credentials - you won't have broken anything.
AppleTV should also now support multiple iTunes AppleIDs but as I only have one I've never tried it, so don't know if you can selectivey delete additional accounts.

How can I create a account, mainly for webmail, if I recently bought a Mac Mini but never situated it and am on vacation now without a Apple computer ?

I read ICloud has a program you can download to be able to use it for messages on a Windows machine but it still requires that you already established an account on an Apple device with Operating System 5 on higher and I prefer an option without installing anything to have easy access when going to a cyber or internet cafe. The ME site refers you to ICloud but that fails to help me.
My Mac Mini is basically new with a one year warranty with free support ( ??? ) and maybe I can call a technical support center but international calls could be costly from here so this is my last resort.
A Apple store is nowhere to be found in this country so I hope to gain as much advice as possible from here.

I appreciate your reply Ralph but I got no way of using an APPLE device with operating system 5 or better because the internet cafe and hotels here use Windows computers as mentioned the first time. The Icloud instructions for a Microsoft machine still require you to initialize the account on a Macintosh prior to being able to use it on other electronics.

I came back from vacation and my apple tv is not showing any of the programs like Netflix and so on what do i need to do

What do I do to make my apple tv to show all the programs like NetFlix. It is not showing it anymore and i'm conected to internet wifi

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    1.    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    2.    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    3.    Restart your router.
    4.    Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)
    5.    Restore the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Restore)

I just got an apple tv while i am on vacation. i am wondering if i hook it up to the tv here can i still hook it up to my tv at home when i go home?

I don't know much about this

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes, but you may need to change the plug.

I have been having issues with my apple id for over a month now. Apple Itunes support tells me its due to maintenance that they cant reset my password and I cant either thru the password site they created. I cant update apps or any thing related to my acc

I have contacted apple support for itunes many many times and no results. I can tell you there support group is not us based. One person I got was in germany I believe the other in Ireland. one went on vacation the other took over and now no emails at all on the status of my account thats been locked for over a month with no resolution in site. Isnt this a publicly traded company? Does anybody know how to get a hold of the board or someone above the service providers Im dealing with or a phone number? Emails are great but there no resolution from a person that can hide behind a computer screen.

hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music' then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

Apple shipped my iPhone at a different address

Hi,
iPhone 6 problem
I had connectivity issue (WiFi) with my iPhone 6 and I called Apple to setup repair. They were very nice in helping me out to resolving the issue. But when it didn't work, they setup a repair and sent me an empty box in which I shipped my faulty iPhone 6 back.
Customer care and manager
Everything was super fast, but I missed the email "We got your repair request" as it was just an email which states that they received the request. But later after shipping I was going through the repair emails and I saw that the name on the "We got your repair request" was wrong. I immediately called Apple support and told them that they have my name wrong in the repair request. Apple support personal was confused and she immediately handed the phone to her manager. The manager spoke with me for quite a few minutes trying to see what went wrong in that email. I thought that it was a small issue (just the name in email), but with managers involved I was a bit worried. The confusing was, the box I received had my name and address. But the email had some other guy's name.
The biggest problem for me was that my repair iPhone may get shipped to the person on email. And I was traveling abroad in few weeks and wanted to make sure that the address issue is resolved before I leave on my vacation. I explained the issued and request Apple support manager to make sure that the product gets shipped at my address. Multiple times. And he assured me that everything looks good and I should relax.
Repair
Later the same night someone from Apple repair team sent me an email with questionnaire to fill about how to generate the issue and many other things. I explained them the issue and told them steps to follow to regenerate the same problem. Next morning I received an email that my they were able to get the same issued in their test and they will be sending me a replacement product. Following this email, maybe an hours later, I received another email stating my replacement product has been shipped.
Replacement product shipment and the mess
Once I saw that email, I was like wow! I was able to see the value in being an owner of Apple product. I was tracking the shipment as it was an expensive product and needed a signature confirmation. It was a next day Fedex shipment and the wait wasn't long. I was checking the status time to time and suddenly on the next check it showed that the product was delivered. I went back running to my mailbox and found nothing. I checked it everywhere and there was nothing. I immediately called Fedex and explained the issue. But when they assured me that the shipment was delivered with signature confirmations, I was like what!!! I said I didn't sign!!! They said can you please repeat your address? I did, and they said, this is not the address that Apple shipped the product to! We have a different address on file. I asked, what is the address? They said, we can't give you the address, only shipper (Apple) can ask details on that.
Post mess communication with Apple (current situation)
When ever it comes to Apple, I am assured that the problem with be solved. Atleast that is my experience after using Apple products (MacBook, iPhone, iPad) from last 7 years. So I was assured that the issue with be solved and I will receive my iPhone 6!. But till now, the issues is not looking good. The manager on call says that there file shows that the product was shipped to my address and I should contact Fedex. But Fedex says they won't disclosed the detail address as only shipper can do that. They were only willing to tell me if the address I am telling is the address on file or not. On repeating my address to Fedex (which was the same return shipment address I had on them email received from Apple) Fedex confirmed that Apple didn't ship to that address.
Fedex is not willing to give me the address. Apple is not willing to help me and want me to check with Fedex. The Manager looking at my case at Apple is assuring that the product was shipped at the same address that was in the email. I was frustrated and even called Apple personal as a liar. Which I think I was not professional, and will apology. But it is a $700 phone, I am a student and I don't know what to do as no one is helping me. I am totally screwed. I am thinking to further this issue by contacting some of the logistic/service/customer care executives of Apple on LinkedIn if they can help. Or anyone have any better idea?
I have attached a picture of my email with Apple. Not including the name of the managers on online forum as I believe it is not the right thing to do on public forum.

Apple is not here.
We can't help you here because we are users just as you are.
You are going to have to escalate this with Fedex. Call and ask to speak to manager.
