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?

  • Using homesharing away from home

    I'm starting college in the fall in a different state from where I am currently. Right now I am transferring my iTunes library from my old desktop computer onto my new laptop using homesharing. My only concern is whether I will still be able to listen to/add new music to my iTunes library on my new computer when I am out of state at college and away from my desktop?

    home sharing works over your local network.
    check out SuperSync instead.

  • Can't send emails away from home

    I have sucessfully set up email on my laptop, to receive and send emails using Outlook 2003.  II have recently been travelling, using a dongle for connection to the 3 mobile phone network.  Although I could still receive emails, I could not send any.  The test message (from the email set-up screen) said could not find the outgoing server and sending test message failed.  I had to revert to my blueyonder account (which I wish to close), which did work.  What do I need to do to resolve this problem?

    Try changing the SMTP port from 25 to 587.  This should work when connected to both BT network and 3 network. 

  • 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.

  • Can Mail be set up to work while away from home?

    When I tried using mail with my powerbook G4, using a free wireless system at the library, I received a message that it needed authentication. Is it possible to use Mail away from home or do I have to use Webmail? I use Comcast broadband at home.

    You were exactly right! All it took is going to Mail preferences, clicking on server settings, checking authentication, and adding my user id and password. I tried using the library's WiFi and mail came through.
    Thanks

  • Outgoing emails away from home

    When away from home (ISP TalkTalk) I find I can receive emails fine, but I cannot send emails on Mac Mail. This happened with my last ISP as well. Is there anyway of correcting this whilst still using Mac Mail? I have tried using different outgoing servers, but there seems to be something missing.

    Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
    This issue is totally dependent upon the internet provider at the venues you visit while away from home, and also upon whether your ISP provides a SMTP that is fully authenticated and works on a Port other than Port 25. The latter is being increasingly blocked by most providers, and SMTP that trust you at your home venue only by reference to your authentication of the Incoming Server or the IP address of the Modem provided by your ISP are likely to not work when away. This is not related to Mail per se, but any email client.
    Ask your ISP is they have a SMTP that works on Port 587 or Port 465 for you to use when away from home.

  • 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.

  • 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?
    Please, Apple Tech people! Help this 14 year old girl on her period, PMS-ing, thinking about how I want  to strangle however made this mistake of a set up, updating her iPad in 3 am in the morning cursing the day she even thought of updating. I seriously need to get out of this loophole. I don't want to use my other iPad that only has 16GB. I just wanted the pretty graphics I saw in my parent's iPad airs, I don't ask for anything more :''''(

  • 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.

  • 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. 

  • 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.

  • Is it possible to transfer iMOVIE 11 projects between my iMac and iPad2 so that I can work on projects when I'm away from home?

    ARD is totally unnecessary and inapplicable for your scenario. ARD is a Mac OS X application for managing other Macs and is not useful if you want to connect to a Mac from some other OS. Mac OS X has a VNC client build int, so VNC,  or one of the number of other remote control solutions - LogMeIn, for instance, if they offer a Linux version - is where you want to be looking.

  • Hi. I have temporarily moved away from home. I am using a different internet connection, and I have lost my bookmarks. How do I get them back?

    Hi. I have temporarily moved away from home. I am using a different internet connection, and I have lost my bookmarks. How do I get them back?

    Generally speaking, your bookmarks are private to your computer, and if you set up multiple Firefox profiles on your computer, to the one profile.
    Your bookmarks might be available to you at another location if you used the Sync service. In order to connect a new computer to the Sync service when you aren't near your old computer, you need a recovery key. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/share-bookmarks-tabs-and-more-your-other-computers#w_what-if-im-not-near-my-first-computer
    If you didn't use Sync or can't access your account, someone with access to your old computer could email you your bookmarks. Since there is a range of different ways to do that and the best choice might depend on what you can expect the person you ask to be able to do... could they start up Firefox in your profile and follow menu steps to export a file? Could they drill down into a hidden folder on the system, zip a file, and mail that to you? Etc.

  • ICloud log in away from home

    Hi
    If I am away from home and my iPad is stolen and I want to log into iCloud to block data etc on the stolen iPad is it possible to log in on a computer that does not have iCloud? i.e. internet cafe etc etc
    Maybe this sounds a daft question - sorry. - but if you have to find someone with iCloud on their computer it does not exactly make the 'find my iPad'function very useful.

    Thanks Roger - I had tried before to find iCloud via goolge etc but all I was offered was to download it.  Many thanks
    Oh dear - I meant to add the 'solved my problem' to your message instead of 'helped me'but seem to have added to to my own reply - sorry
