Can another user set up my apple tv on their computer tv

No longer use my Apple TV 3rd generation, can I give it to someone else and will they be able to set it up on their computer / TV?

I would restore (wipe) it before you give it away.

  • Another account user is using my apple id as their rescue email. Apple know this but expect me to contact him directly rather that let lim know his error. Seem strange and a recipe for conflict. What do you think?

    Another apple account user has put my apple id as their rescue email. Apple know this but expect me to contact him directly rather that let lim know his error. Seem strange and a recipe for conflict. What do you think?

    Primary and alternate email addresses need to be verified but a rescue email address doesn't, it can be added to an account and used without being verified (you will get a verify button when adding/changing it, but the system doesn't force it to be verified). I would hope that the person using the email address as their rescue email address will notice that they aren't getting reset emails and that after contacting Support to get their security questions / password reset he/she will check what they've set it to and change it. The OP won't be able to log into the other account as he/she won't know its primary or alternate ids.

  • Yes another user with problem with Apple Mobile Device Support, I am getting the error message: Service 'Apple Mobile Device'(Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Vertify that you have sufficient privileges to start system service....

    Yes another user with problem with Apple Mobile Device Support, I am getting the error message: Service 'Apple Mobile Device'(Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Vertify that you have sufficient privileges to start system service....I hit retry and it came up again. I hit ignore and it prompted me to hit finish so Itunes can open.   I looked thru alot of these posts on here to try and resolve this problem myself but it's not working too well...I downloaded Itunes to my desktop so I can right click it with the program i downloaded called WinRAR. I extracted it and then went into the folder called Itunes64setup. I saw the file called AppleMobileDeviceSupport64 in there so I began to try and download it on it's own. Well that didn't work as I planned and got this error message:
    Apple Mobile Device Support wasn't installed on your computer. The installer encountered errors before Apple Mobile Device Support could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at a later time,please run the installer again.
    Well I tried to run it again and came up with the same message...I see that some people got great support to help them so I am hoping someone can help me as well. I know "b nor" is very qualfied and hopefully can help me! Please advise what I can do. Thank you

  • HT204053 Can multiple people use the same Apple ID for their own devices?

    Can multiple people use the same Apple ID for their own devices? I just set up my IPhone 4S (first time user) using the same Apple ID as my daughters and now we receive each others texts, do I need to set up my own Apple ID account?

    Yes, you can.  In fact it's recommended that you use different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud.  You can still share the same ID for iTunes without any issues.
    You are getting each other's text messages because you're using the same ID for iMessage.  To fix this, one of you should go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign in with a different ID.  To avoid getting each other's FaceTime calls, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

  • HT2731 can i have more than one apple id on a computer? As when we go away we want to facetime from our macpro to our main mac at home and both are registered under the same apple ID. Thanks

    Can you have more than one apple id on a computer. We are going away and want to facetime from our macpro to the mac computer at home but both are registered under the same apple ID. What should we do ?

    I will share with you what I have done to manage this with my family.  While the solution isn't without flawes, it seems to do the trick.  First, you need to have one person who is managing the synching of everyone's devices.  In my family, I have three iphones, about to be four, and five ipads.  We all synch to the same apple ID to allow one another to take seemless advantage of our Itunes, which is on our Imac.  To synch individual music or video interests, we simply select which playlists we want and manually synch that way.  A couple of us use imatch and the cloud to make the entire library accessable as well.  With respect to the imessage, mail, contacts, etc. we each have a gmail account for our individual emails, contacts etc.  So for instance, my forth grade daughter has a gmail account that we choose to synch her contacts, calendar, etc to and then that is also the account where she receives her imessages from on her ipad and itouch. My son, who has an iphone and ipad, does the same thing, but under settings, he goes to imessage and checks his phone number and his email as his preferred way to receive imessages and texts.  My wife and I do the same thing.  To avoid having everyone see one anothers contracts etc, we only synch contacts from our individual email accounts.  Here is the downfall to this:  When you update your phone or add a new device, apple always wants to reset everyone's facetime and imessage settings and then low and behold we are all receiving imessages from one another's friends etc.  To work around this, I simply take each of their devices and go to their imessage settings and only check the email and phone numbers relative to their devices.  I dont' know is this is the best solution, but it seems to work for us. 

  • How can another user of my p.c use my music

    Hi,
    Maybe I am being stupid here but using Windoze XP I have set up my daughter to use my P.c with her own account and sign-on.
    So when she visits me she can "switch" user to "herself" and use my p.c with her own settings - you know what I mean, all the features that XP intends of having multiple users of the same p.c
    The problem is that when she opens ITunes I want her to see the music and so on that I have purchased for her (in my XP user id) while she was away.
    Seems a simple idea but I can't see how to do it.
    Any ideas please ?
    Thanks a lot
    Wayne McMillan

    Save the document from his account to an external drive or thumb drive.
    Set the permissions (using Finder > Get Info) for "Everyone" to Read and Write.
    Your DS will likely be the owner of the file, so you may need his login password to change the permissions.

  • Can you re-set up id apple on the iphone?

    Hi There
    My wife mixed up her apple ID.
    The thing is that the apple ID she typed a wrong one in the  icloud settings of her new iphone.
    Problem is that her iphone cannot use icloud and there is no way to change to the right one because she does not know the password of tha "wrong" account.
    Best regards
    Thanks.

    Can you set up Auto answer on the Iphone when you have ear buds pluged in like you can on the Sony Walkman mobil phone ?.
    That is not a feature of the iPhone. You'll need to either tap tha answer button on your headset or answer the phone normally.

  • Why can't I set up an apple ID alternate email using my first name and last name?

    I am trying to set up an alternate address to my appleID using my first name and last name.  It keeps saying it is "rejected" but it gives me no reason.  I thought maybe someone was squatting on it, but when I try to send a note to it, it says that it isn't a valid address.  Does Apple prevent you from using an iCloud device with your name?  Seems odd since it allows other combinations of my name.

    Hello amg1957,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you're trying to add an alternate email address to your Apple ID account, the email needs to be an existing valid email address.  To configure an alternate email address with a valid existing email, please follow the directions below.
    Alternate email address
    You can add one or more alternate email addresses for use with Apple services such as Game Center, FaceTime, Find My Friends, iMessage, and OS X notifications.
    Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
    Select “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
    Add an alternate address:
    Select Add Email Address, then enter your alternate address. Apple will send a verification email to that address. Didn't receive the email?
    Follow the instructions in the email to verify the address.
    Edit an alternate address:
    Select Edit next to the address, then enter the new address. Apple will send a verification email to that address. Didn't receive the email?
    Follow the instructions in the email to verify the address.
    Delete an alternate address: Select Delete next to the address.
    Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses - Apple Support
    Take care,
    Alex H.

  • How can another user on my system share their document if they cannot access a public drop box, do not have an email account setup on the system and we don't want to use iwork?

    Please help. My DS created a document under his login on my PowerBook and now, I cannot seem to access it. He doesn't have an email account of his own, I can't seem to save it as a public document in a drop box like I can from my own login and we do not want to use iwork. Is there a way to save it so that I can access it from my login to email to his teacher. I don't want to have to retype it into Pages under my login.

    Save the document from his account to an external drive or thumb drive.

  • How can you set up multiple apple ids on one computer

    it says something about 90 days

    Not sure what you mean about 90 days.
    Everyone with an Apple ID should have they own user account.

  • Can another user post messages using my id and password

    How can I check whether messages sent using my Log in account and password were Posted from another machine?

    If I were you I'd change my password and email, like the person above me said.Honestly, you should never give ANY account information to ANYONE- it can really mess things up for you, and in the end since it's YOUR account, YOU will be the one liable for whatever activity transpires on the account, no matter if it really was you that said something or not.Judging by this whole situation, you're probably just a kid. So it's okay.
    It happens.
    Let this be a lesson for you though. At least it was just this account, and not something more important like a credit card or something lol. Take care.

  • Why can't users set their own defaults in the communities?

    I could care less for the most part to get posts from a year or two ago when I search in the support communities. However, I can find no way to set my search preference. It is auto set to relevance. I'd prefer the have it set to Date. I searched for something regarding iMovie. I got hits that are totally irrelevant that go back to before the last two major changes in iMovie. What good is that?

    Hmm, I just typed Mavericks into the search box and was presented with this window:
    At that point, I usually specify (click on) past "day", "week", or whatever and that works.

  • How do I move another users e-mail from my account to theirs?

    The Apple Store set up our new iMac with one user.  My contacts and other items were automatically transferred from my iPhone at the store.  Once home, my wife set up her e-mail account in my user account before I could set up a separate user account for her. I have since set up a new user account for her.  How do I transfer her mail account out of my user account and into hers?
    Thanks,

    If it's an IMAP or Exchange account, the messages are stored on the server, and you don't have to move them. If it's a POP account and you removed the messages from the server, ask for instructions.
