Connecting iphone to pc say it uses "3 out of 5 pc's available"
hi.
i have one iphone and one computer.
i have formatted my computer again now and installed the iphone again, all works fine.
after connecting the iphone, the itunes says "its using 3 computer connections available out of the 5 possible".
what happens when i reach 5? i cant connect the iphone again?
again, the same phone the same computer, only formatted.
thank you!
The problem is that you authorized your Apple ID account to 3 iTunes (When you format your computer, your Apple ID will recognize your new iTunes as the new computer.)
Solution:
Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
Re-Authorize your current iTunes
You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers.
Hope this can help you out!

Hello!
Can anyone teach me how to connect iphone 4S to ipad retina using bluetooth. I tried, but the devices won't discover each other at all. I just wanted to connect to share contact details so I don't have to key in one by one.
Many thanks
InjinYou need to go to the App stores and find compatible apps. iOS device do not natively have to ability to transfer info to a computer via BT to a computer.
With iOS 8 you can use AirDrop -

Can't connect to router / Error says router uses ACLs which it doesn't
Hi!
I'm having troubles connecting my MacBook (10.4.10) to my WLAN-Router (Siemens Gigaset SE551).
I switched from WEP to WPA encryption today and all windows machines work just fine, however my MacBook refuses to connect.
The dialog says:
"The selected network uses an Access Control List to restrict access and this computer is not in the list.".
This is wrong. MAC Filtering is not enabled and the MacBook connects flawlessly using Bootcamp.
I already tried to clean up my network settings (no default entries, etc.) and updated the routers firmware. Nothing works.
Any ideas?
bye

MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.10) Airport, Siemens Gigaset, SE551, WPA, MAC, ACL
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.10)It works under Bootcamp, so the router settings can't be the problem, right?
Well, no, Macs & Routers don't exactly agree on "standards", and most likely everybody's Router was tested or fixed to work with Windows® "standards"!
Yet I don't "think' that were the problem is yet. Most referemces to SSIDs are kept either in Keychain, or...
/Users/nnnn/Library/Preferences/com.apple.internetconnect.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
With cross references used between them too!
Crazy Idea®... maybe try enabling ACL on the Router as a test with the mac's MAC in it? -

Hi AmbiguousSk8r,
The HDMI port on a MacBook Pro does not support video in, only video out. See this article -

Deauthorizing iTunes on a computer? My laptop won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I'm authorized on too many computers, but when I try to de-authorize another computer I use it won't let me. What's up?
What do you mean it won't let you? What exactly does it say? (Sorry to sound so exasperated but this is like the 6th post in a row where people have made vague statements which do little to help us find solutions without a game of 20 questions.) I'm going to guess and say you can only deauthorize a computer to which you have physical access or VPN login. The alternative is to deauthorize all which you can only do once a year.

Dear Sirs,when i use the computer updating my iphone to ios 7.1,suddenly black out.The computer has no power and my iphone does not work and keep display the screen saying the iphone need to connect to itunes.

My ipod 5th gen says it is connected to the internet and i can go on apps that require an internet connection but whe i try to use the weather or another app that uses your current location it cant find me???
If you open the Maps app where does that say you are located?
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds
