Homesharing Issues - (iOS 4.3)

After upgrading my 3GS to 4.3 and setting up Homesharing, the TV shows I have in my iTunes library (in particular TV series with more than one season) are all over the place. They are not in the order/groups that I have in my library. Anyone else having a similar issue?
I've also noticed that when streaming videos to my 3GS, it stops playing numerous times. I have to keep hitting the "Play" button to get it to work.

Sorry... bumping this thread as I still have the problem and no solution as of yet.

5s battery & heating issue (ios 8.1.3)!!!!!!!

i just bought 5s and updated it to ios 8.1.3, my maximum battery life is 4 and half hours of continues usage (just downloading apps and browsing and chat and no games), is that normal??

Hi Bebars100,
The resource below will provide information and tips to maximize the battery performance of your iPhone. If you follow these suggestions and still have issues with your new iPhone, it may require service.
Apple - Batteries - Maximizing Performance
https://www.apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/
“Battery life” is the amount of time your device runs before it needs to be recharged. “Battery lifespan” is the amount of time your battery lasts until it needs to be replaced. Maximize both and you’ll get the most out of your Apple devices
Your device is designed to perform well in a wide range of temperatures, with 62° to
72° F (16° to 22° C) as the ideal comfort zone. It’s especially important to avoid exposing your device to temperatures higher than 95° F (35° C), which can permanently damage battery capacity. That is, your battery won’t power your device as long on a given charge. Charging the device in high temperatures can damage it further. Even storing a battery in a hot environment can damage it irreversibly. When using your device in a very cold environment, you may notice a decrease in battery life, but this condition is temporary. Once the battery’s temperature returns to its normal operating range, its performance will return to normal as well.
iPhone, iPad, and iPod work best at 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C). Storage temperature: -4° to 113° F (-20° to 45° C).
MacBook works best at 50° to 95° F (10° to 35° C). Storage temperature: -4° to 113° F (-20° to 45° C).
Charging your device when it’s inside certain styles of cases may generate excess heat, which can affect battery capacity. If you notice that your device gets hot when you charge it, take it out of its case first.
If you want to store your device long term, two key factors will affect the overall health of your battery: the environmental temperature and the percentage of charge on the battery when it’s powered down for storage. Therefore, we recommend the following:
Do not fully charge or fully discharge your device’s battery — charge it to around 50%. If you store a device when its battery is fully discharged, the battery could fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding a charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery may lose some capacity, leading to shorter battery life.
Power down the device to avoid additional battery use.
Place your device in a cool, moisture-free environment that’s less than 90° F (32° C).
If you plan to store your device for longer than six months, charge it to 50% every six months.
Depending on how long you store your device, it may be in a low-battery state when you remove it from long-term storage. After it’s removed from storage, it may require 20 minutes of charging with the original adapter before you can use it.
There are two simple ways you can preserve battery life — no matter how you use your device: adjust your screen brightness and use Wi-Fi.
Dim the screen or turn on Auto-Brightness to extend battery life.
To dim, swipe up from the bottom of any screen to open Control Center and drag the Brightness slider to the left.
Auto-Brightness adjusts your screen to lighting conditions automatically. To activate it, go to Settings > Display & Brightness and set Auto-Brightness to On.
When you use your device to access data, a Wi-Fi connection uses less power than a cellular network — so keep Wi-Fi on at all times. There are two ways to turn on Wi-Fi:
Swipe up to open Control Center, tap the Wi-Fi icon, and log in to a Wi-Fi network.
Go to Settings > Wi-Fi to access a Wi-Fi network.
iOS 8 is designed to be the most battery-efficient iOS ever. And it gives you more precise ways to manage your device’s battery life, because you can see the proportion of your battery used by each app (unless the device is charging). To view your usage, go to Settings > General > Usage > Battery Usage.
Here are the messages you may see listed below the apps you’ve been using:
Background Activity. This indicates that the battery was used by the app while it was in the background — that is, while you were using another app
To improve battery life, you can turn off the feature that allows apps to refresh in the background. Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh and set the switch to Off.
If the Mail app lists Background Activity, you can choose to fetch data manually or increase the fetch interval. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data.
Location and Background Location. This indicates that the app is using location services.
You can optimize your battery life by turning off Location Services for the app. Turn off in Settings > Privacy > Location Services.
In Location Services, you can see each app listed with its permission setting. Apps that recently used location services have an indicator next to the on/off switch.
Home & Lock Screen. This indicates that the Home screen or Lock screen was displayed on your device. For example, the display was awakened by pressing the Home button or by a notification.
If an app frequently wakes your display with notifications, you can turn off push notifications for the app in Settings > Notifications. Tap App and set Allow Notifications to Off.

RE: Fix for downloading audiobooks to iTunes issues IOS.7.4

Okay, so I've downloaded Audiobooks from Overdrive Media for years...right into iTunes with no issues. Until this week, right after I updated to IOS.7.4. Immediately after the update, I downloaded a couple of audiobooks, and noticed that they did not "spool" correctly once I dragged them into my Audiobooks playlist prior to syncing.
Once I tried to sync, and go to check my phone to make sure they were there...they were gone. Never showed up on my phone, and they were gone from my playlist. They were in my "Music" folder however, but not in my Audiobooks playlist.
After struggling with it for a night, I called the Apple Help Desk, and to their credit they were great! Walked me through the view only process so they could see what I was actually looking at on my computer, and after about 30 minutes, decided that it was my iTunes that was the problem. I was on the most current version, but for some reason it was not operating properly.
Forwarded very simple How To instructions on deleting iTunes and all associated files and then reinstalling the program (I lost nothing), and it fixed the issue and I'm back to normal with syncing, and have my Audiobook playlists back with my downloaded audiobooks in it.
So, if anyone else is struggling with this same issue...this might help you as well.
Took about an hour start to finish!

I build a small lab. It is regardless to disable CCKM, PMF or Anchor. The problem happens to Windows XP Clients (no Win 7 yet) and Access Points in FlexConnect Mode.
The first connect is stable. If you shortly disable the wlan adapter and reenable it, the client is connected to the wireless network but you cannot transmit any data. But Link test works :-)
After a rollback to 7.4.110.0 you can disable/enable the wireless adapter as many times as you want.

IPad Airplay Issue - iOS 8

I work for a K-12 school district. Teachers often use airplay and the app AirServer on our macs to mirror their iPad on their mac. This has worked great, until iOS 8. On iPads with iOS 8+, when you click on the airplay button in Control Center, the menu does not expand beyond showing "iPad" and the first airplay device (see image). This is an issue because oftentimes we have SO many computers available to connect to, they are switching in and out so fast you cannot find the one you need. On iOS 7, this menu expands, as it should, and displays a long list of available devices. I have tried hard resets, resetting network settings, installing a fresh copy of iOS 8.1, updating to iOS 8.1.1 (we have a developer account), and even tried it on an iPad 4, with the same results. I have googled this and cannot find anyone with the same issue, is this an iOS 8 bug or is this just isolated to us?

I work for a school district using 2100 iPads and we're also having this issue with Airplay problems since iOS 8.
I spoke with someone at Apple and this is something they are working on fixing. Most likely it'll be atleast a couple of weeks.
We've been giving teachers Lightning to VGA adapters so they can hard wire and avoid the issues. Super inconvenient though.
Hope this helps you - its not your issue.

HT4557 Did Apple remove homesharing on IOS devices?

I have a min that I turned on home sharing. Both my touch and ipad cannot access the music or video through home sharing. All three have homesharing turned on. At the genuis bar I was told that the ios devices are not media extenders and that i need to use match and the cloud instead of my own wifi network and local mac mini. I looked it up and apple states that in settings / music / I should have a share option. I should also have in Music/ More/ a share option that would show my library on the mini. Neither show up.
I have all os updated and the three machines are 2012 mac mini ipod touch 4g and Ipad 2

IPad iTunes U App Issue (iOS 6)

Greetings All;
I've encountered an issue with the iPad (iPad 2) iTunes U app after the upgrade to iOS 6. After upgrading the iOS and the iTunes app, the graphics no longer appear...only a list of the content (see attache screen shot). Also, when the "Notable" tab is selected no content appears...only a blank page. On the other hand, when you select "Catagories", the content appears as expected. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Any feedback would be appreciated. All the best...

Syd,
I am brand new to this Apple world and have the pleasure of now supporting iPods here at school. I rec'd the email directing me towards the www.tnelc.org resource. Looks like good stuff and a great resource. However, my iPods with iOS6 will not play nice with iTunes U.
I am able to get to these resources with my Windows 7 machine but my iPods will not let me in to the iTunes U app. When I click on the link for the app nothing happens.When I try to register as a teacher it gets stuck on the profile page wanting my photo but not allowing me to upload it. It appears the upgrade to iOS6 has broken our iPods.
Based on google research over the last couple of days, which is how I found this thread, it appears we are not alone with iOS6 problems. Are we just waiting for an Apple patch / upgrade or is there something I can do to resolve this.
Thanks

PC to Mac itunes homesharing issues, PC to Mac itunes homesharing issues, PC to Mac itunes homesharing issues, PC to Mac itunes homesharing issues, PC to Mac itunes homesharing issues

Finally copying iTunes from my PC to Mac. It was suggested by Apple that I do this via homesharing. Why is it that 1) PC itunes has 2196 songs 2) Mac itunes sees 2192 but only copying xxx of 2093. Why am I missing 100 songs and no, not a purchased music issue...those are coming over quite fine!

SO SORRY, I Was disconnected in the middle of editing this (said Apple Discussions being updated) After writing above, discovered my PC didn't still have Home Sharing enabled (may be necc to enable after every update)
Corrected response as follows
You should try the following to at least determine which songs are misssing:
launch iTunes on both computers, Make home sharing on BOTH computers
Select your PC's iTunes Library icon on in the Leftside Sidebar on your mac. Give it a moment, till all items appear.
Now click the popup on the bottom left of window where it says "All Items", and choose "Items not on my Computer"
You should now be able to select a song and click "import"
Out of curiositly: try to analyze why those items didn't transfer:
1. Are any of the items in your PC's library missing? (They'll display an exclamation point icon)
2. Formats: Are the missing songs in WAV / WMA format? I don't know if iTunes Mac supports WMA (iTunes PC will gladly convert WMA for you.). I don't think either version does WAV.
To test, on your PC, make visible the "Kind" column (via View Options- control-J)) sort by kind see if there are any WMA tunes
3. Unlikely but possible: The method you used only transferred purchased items.
4. There is something corrupt or wrong about the songs in question (windoze permissions issues?)

Bluetooth streaming issues iOS 8.1.2

I have been seeing issues with Bluetooth audio streaming on my iPhone 5c, when connected to Harman/Kardon Soundsticks III BT.
Initially I thought it was an issue with the speakers, but changed my mind when my friend's Nexus 4 was able to stream audio properly.
I do not face any issues with pairing or connection. But the audio playback will stop suddenly, even though I can see the progress bar and timer on my iPhone.
And sometimes, I hear a continuous buzzing sound from the speakers, after audio playback stopped.
Today I also saw issues with connecting to my Nokia BH-104 headset. I can see Bluetooth got connected, but music simply does not stream to the headset. When I try playing, music is played over phone speakers, not the headset. I tried using the headset with my Lenovo laptop, and its working fine.
Tried resetting phone, even restored as new when i upgraded to iOS 8.1.2, but nothing has yet worked for me.
Anyone facing similar issues?

Weird SMS Issue (iOS 4.2, iPhone 4)

So I have a weird software issue that's been going on with my new iPhone 4. Every time I get a text message and I "Slide to View" it doesn't take me to the message, rather, it marks the message as read and then takes me the main Messages pane. Is there anything I can do to fix this? It's pretty annoying, along with it sometimes opening up the messages app to an unread message without letting me start at the main screen?
I do not want to restore because I will lose all of my previous text messages. Is there anything I can do?
Thanks!!!

I've had the same problem since updating to iOS 4.2, on Vodafone network (Ireland).
I'm now dropping most calls in the first minute, I live in the city centre with good network coverage, and I have the cover on...
I went to the VF store yesterday, was given a new micro SIM in case that was the problem (it wasn't).
Then rang VF technical support who reckoned it might be a problem with the software not changing quick enough between 3G to 2G network and vice versa to boost signal strength and recommended disabling 3G (this hasn't helped either).
So I'm sorry for not having an answer, have you heard any fixes elsewhere for the problem though?

Full Screen Caller ID iPhone 6 Issues - ios 8.1.3

Hello
First time poster, having a big time annoying issue with full screen caller ID.
Everytime I insert a picture for a contact as full-screen caller ID, it works for a short period of time (hours, maybe a couple days if I'm lucky) before reverting back to the circle thumbnail. I have researched all over the internet on this issue and cannot seem to find a fix for this. Here are a few facts about my device/setup:
-iPhone 6, iOS 8.1.3
-Sync my contacts with Google
-Have iCloud, Gmail, and google calendar signed into as accounts on my device but ONLY contact sync toggle that is on is with google (i checked this before as I though some kind of double syncing was going on but alas that was not the case).
-Do NOT sync with any other software (i.e. Outlook, etc)
-All pictures that I am trying to use for full screen photo ID are stored on my device.
If anyone can help me solve this so I can consistently get full-screen photo ID, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

OOPS! Too quick on the trigger to ask that question without trying anything. Sorry. Solved it by touching the bookmark icon.

Apple TV Homesharing issue

Why do I always need to close and reopen homesharing to see music on my TV. I'm sharing through a Apple TV.

Proximity Sensor issues iOS 5.1

Since upgrading to iOS 5.1 my proximity sensor has stopped working when a call is taking place. Knowing full well that correlation does not imply causation I need to ask...is anyone else having similar issues?

I did the same thing...wasted a well-applied screen protector for no reason.
Anyway, I went to the Genius Bar today and they tried installing a fresh version of 5.1, saying the version I'd installed could be corrupted. No help (no surprise). I was told its probably a hardware issue and I'm out of warranty and for $149 they'll replace it. I said I thought 5.1 caused it, and that I wasn't inclined to stick with a product when the company's own update is what is causing the problem. (imo)
So now my options seem limited to jailbreaking and using CallLock. Been researching how to revert to 5.0.1 to prove my point but can't figure out how without shsh blobs previously saved.

TS2972 HomeShare issue

2008 Mac Book
Current iTunes
Music stored on external Hard Drive.
Ipad w/current software.
Home Network:
Verizon wireless router and internet
My HomeShare won't fully connect.
I get the notification on my iPad under Music>Other that my shared library is available "Mac Library".
When I click it the little circle all the way to the right, like you get when you update a podcast or an app, starts to fill. It goes halfway around and then stops.
Nothing else happens.
The same exact issue occurs with my windows PC laptop so its not device specific.
When I go to close my iTunes session on the Mac I get this notice:
"Other users are connected to Home Sharing. Shutting down iTunes will result in those users being unable to share music"
I'm not sure on the exact wording but obviously iTunes is aware that Home Share is taking place.
So why won't my music show up?

Did it work before?
