Away from home

I am away from home & would like to access my account & library. when i sign in, nothing comes up. what am i doing wrong?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
You cannot access your songs anywhere except for where they are stored at, your home computer. Logging in just allows you to access your account info and any money stored in the account.

  • TS1398 How do I connect to the internet with my iphone when away from home

    I have an iphone 3GS which was fine , was able to connect to the internet away from home when at uni, at appointments. Since software update to IOS 6.0, can now only connect to internet wirelessly when at home-as soon as leave the house it disconnects. Is this just because of the software update? Have tried adjusting settings but got nowhere. Thank you

    When your wifi is off.  Do you see your carrier name at the top left with either 3G/4G.  If not you can try a reset, hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    or settings - cellular - cellular data - ON
    if those two suggestion doesn't help then you will need to contact your phone carrier to resolve the issue.

  • Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all.

    Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all. Is the setting I need to change in Outlook or on the iPhone or is it somewhere else?  I used to have this setting but transferring Outlook to a new laptop somehow turned it off.

    No. You really can't do that. Not easily at any rate. You would have to set them both up to use POP3, but even then there is no way to guarantee that the phone won't poll the server prior to your computer doing so, pulling down the message from the server.

  • Wifi works at home but not when away from home

    My Wifi works at home but not when away from home, what is wrong?  I thought with a phone plan I didn't need to have a wifi connection.

    You either need WiFi or Cellular (or both). If you have neither, you can't connect to the internet.
    Most people use WiFi at home and Cellular while away from home, or connect to public WiFi networks where there are some.

  • Can I use iTunes Match while I'm away from Home, and my family still use Home Sharing via Apple TV?

    I would like to be able to use my iTunes Match account as I am frequently away from home.
    However, my family would also like to be able to use Home Sharing to listen to music, watch movies stored on the family iMac, using the Apple TV.
    At the moment, iTunes Match & Apple Store uses a different Apple ID to Home Sharing.  I don't want the kids to be able to download movies etc on the Apple TV.
    Is there a way that I can achieve both at the same time?

    Yes, iTunes Match alleviates this situation.  As long as iTunes on both of your computers is using the same Apple ID, you can add songs to either one, and once they have uploaded to iCloud, they will be available on any of your iDevices AND in iTunes on the other computer.

  • How do I stream purchased movies to my Macbook Pro if I've already downloaded them and moved the source files to an external desktop hard drive and I'm away from home?

    I recently added a number of movies to my iTunes library by redeeming digital copeis that came with Blu-rays. Due to limted disc space on my MacBook Pro, and for safe keeping, once I downloaded the movies, I moved the source files to an external desktop hard drive. When I'm home and I'm able to access that external HD via my home network, I'm able to watch the movies without an issue. However, if I'm away from home and I want to watch them, I'm not sure how to do that. I thought I could "stream" purchased movies from within iTunes  - even after downloading them - using "iTunes in the Cloud" but can't figure out how to do that, or it simply isn't possible.
    What are my options?

    I understand that I can't play my downloaded movies when my external HDD is not connected becuase iTunes is looking for the downloaded files. This is not the issue. The issue is that because my HDD is not connected (as in when I'm away from home) I'd like to be able to stream the movies via the cloud.
    If I hadn't downloaded the movies when I redeemed my codes, would I have been able to keep the movies online via Apple iCloud and watched them anytime by streaming them or must the movies be downloaded in order to be viewed on my MacBook?  I read that Apple allows movies purchased (or redeemed) via iTunes to be stored in the cloud via Apple iCloud so that they can be viewed any time, on any device.  IF this is the case, how does it work? From what I can see, it looks like movies can only be "streamed" from the cloud when useing Apple TV; on my iPhone and MacBook Pro, it looks like they need to be downloaded in order to be viewed.
    Can someone clarify this for me?
    Also - Michael - when you said that If I've already downloaded the film but I'm away from my external HDD I should "Delete the entry from the iTunes library so iTunes only sees the iTunes in the Cloud version", what exactly would this mean? Would this mean that I could then stream the movie from the cloud or would I have to re-download it to my Mac's internal HDD in order to watch it?
    Many thanks!

  • How can I get my iPhone 4 repaired while away from home?

    I will be working in Manila in the Philippines for the next few months.
    My iPhone 4 has developed a hardware fault and needs to be repaired. It is out of warranty, but I am willing to pay for the cost of the repair myself. The Apple Authorized Service Providers here inform me that the only organizations who carry out repairs are the two official iPhone distributors in the country. Unfortunately, neither of these companies are willing to repair my iPhone because it was not purchased from them.
    I am told that I will have to fly back to the country I originally purchased the unit from to have the work carried out there.
    People travel and work all around the world these days. Do Apple really expect their customers to fly to a different country just to get their phone
    repaired? How is someone travelling on a business trip supposed to manage without his phone if it develops a fault while he is away from
    home?
    Does anyone know a way I can get my iPhone fixed while I am here?
    Chris

    As I explained, I'm not asking for Apple to provide warranty support. I'm quite willing to pay for the cost myself. The problem is that none of the authorized Apple service centers are willing to accept the unit for repair because it wasn't purchased from them.
    Its quite shameful that Apple permits its official support organizations to behave in this way. Someone working away from home should be able to get their phone repaired if it develops a fault. These things are not toys for many of us. A lot of people depend on them to carry out their business.

  • Can I use iCloud away from home on my iPhone5s?

    I thought that it worked that way, but I seem to be mistaken.  I can use it when on the same block as my home, but not otherwise.  When I am near home, it only allows me to play a few songs from a couple of artists.  Is it supposed to work that way and if not, how do I correct it?  I don't know if it affects anything, but I have Verizon and the standard 5GB cloud plan (but am willing to upgrade if it will help my listening coverage).  I've checked several similar questions but have yet to find anything that works.  This is a big annoyance for me because I wanted to listen to my songs away from home, but my 16GB phone won't hold all 1400 songs (which I'm told is another problem all it's own, but that's another question entirely).

    I've made calls from areas where I can't listen.  Is there some kind of setting I've effed up?

  • Can no longer access ESPN3 away from home

    After setting up the remote access feature, I used to be able to access espn3 away from home, but can no longer do so.  When I select an event to watch, I see the prompt to select internet service provider and then continue.  I then receive a login error message from AT&T.  I just tried the same thing using my wife's laptop and it works just fine, so there is something not quite right on my computer.  Any ideas of what to look for to fix this? 
    Thanks in advance

    Bump.....still looking for some help if anyone has some ideas.  Even after the upgrade to Lion, still have the same problem. 

  • I've managed to get back to Pages 4.3 and delete the downgrade Pages 5, which makes a total mess of any doc prepared with it,  but how to I get back to the old version of Pages on my iPad so that I can work while I am away from home.

    I've managed to get back to Pages 4.3 on my iMac and delete the downgrade Pages 5, which makes a total mess of photo-rich documents prepared with Facing Pages (most of mine),  but how to I get back to the old version of Pages on my iPad so that I can work on sections away from home. At least on my old PC, Word maintained compatability with old versions. Beginning to regret having switched.

    Thanks for your help. What is really irritating is that Apple give a big hurray about what they have added as "new"  in Pages 5 (most of it pretty useless) without telling you of the myriad things they have deleted.  If they had shown the list your gave the link to, I doubt may regular users would risked going to Mavericks with its auto upgrade. My partner got the message in time and is sticking with the earlier operating systems and Pages on Mac and iPad. Lucky girl.
    I have found a way to use my iPad to add chapters written while on the move to reports on my iMac Pages 4.3. If I write it on the new Pages on the iMac (don't seem to be able to revert there), the send the report as an email in WORD format (not Pages) and download it in the Text Editor, then cut and paste into the story on the iMac. Hardly elegant but it works.

  • Want to have My iPod Touch to be connected to a WiFi while away From Home

    While at Home I am connected to my WiFi through my computer system but when I am away from home there isn't very much WiFi Hot spots in my area except when I am in a Star bucks or in a business that says that they have "Free" WiFi. I have a few WiFi iPod Touch Apps that are able to locate Free WiFi Hot Spots but when I go and try to use them when I am away from home I am not able to use it at all.
    Is there a way that I can have my iPod Touch to be set up where I can be connect to any WiFis when I am away from Home? or have my iPod Touch to be able to search for any WiFis in my area?
    Note: I have a MobileMe Account and I have a email account with my local Isp which is a Pop account.

    I'll add another positive review about the MiFi device and its use with a Touch. I've had this for about 2 months, and it works very well. And I'll disagree with the poster who said "get an iPhone".
    The MiFi has several advantages over the iPhone -- First, it's a mobile hotspot that can provide WiFi for up to 5 devices simultaneously (the iPhone can't do that, even once AT&T enables tethering); Second, the MiFi allows use of a network other than AT&T (which many users may appreciate)...aside from Verizon, Sprint sells a version that works on its network; Finally, the price of the MiFi and its usage plan may well end up being less expensive than an iPhone.
    It's not cheap, but then again, neither is an iPhone and its usage plan. I spend nearly $60/month on the expensive MiFi plan, but can switch down (and then back up) to the lower-priced $40/month plan if I don't need the full 5gb a month that the higher plan provides.
    Sure, you don't get a telephone with the Touch + MiFi solution (although Skype works well if you add a microphone to your Touch), but not everyone wants/needs a phone...and for those who want primarily data/WiFi/Web, the MiFi with a Touch will give an iPhone a real run for its money.
    I'll also add that the original poster may just need access to more hotspots - i.e., other than those that advertise "free" WiFi. If that's the case, she might consider something like a Boingo membership which will get her online in many places...including just about every McDonalds in the US.

  • I want to be able to access my main computer when I'm away from home. Are there honest and trusted 3rd party applications that allow access to the home computer when I'm traveling?

    the job takes me away from home and at times I need information stored on the iMac. I would like to access the main computer and its files through a second computer, Mac Pro. Is there a service that will allow me to access my main computer when I'm traveling? For example if I'm in Brasil and need to access files found in my main computer in Canada, what reliable allows me to connect between the 2 computers?

    Yes,

  • HT201210 Ive updated to ios 6 using wireless. once completed it has asked me to plug my phone into itunes. i'm away from home without itunes what can i do ? the phone cant get past this screen

    Ive just tried to install iOS 6 using wirless. Once completed it asks me to plug it into itunes.
    I'm away from home at the moment so i dont have access to itunes. is there anything i can do ? the phone will not do anything !!
    is there a way to get passed this or revert back ?

    I have the same problem and we can't simply just restore from the backup. It says that I have to set up my iPad through restoring. So I tried restoring it in iTunes but it won't restore until I have to turn off this **** "Find My iPad" crap but I couldn't because the set up's not complete and it won't let me go to my settings unless I set it up. So basically it's asking me to go to my settings but before I could go to it I have to restore, and in order to restore I have to go to settings. Get where I'm at?

  • Using iphone with macbook air to access internet away from home

    Can I use the iphone as a dongle to access internet on Macbook air. I find using the iphone fiddly and would prefer the laptop when away from home.

    You can, but you have to pay an additional fee to AT&T. I think it's about $20/month for tethering.
