How come my icloud does not have family sharing?

I am attempting to turn on family sharing except neither my laptop nor ipad have the "family sharing" choice in settings or in my programs. How do I add this so that I can go through the steps to family share?

Hi kathymaas33,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you want to start a family group. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
Start or join a family group using Family Sharing - Apple Support
Set up Family Sharing
Use these steps in iOS 8:
Go to Settings > iCloud.
Tap Set Up Family Sharing, then tap Get Started.
Confirm that you want to be the family organizer and that you're signed in with your personal Apple ID.
Follow the onscreen instructions.
Use these steps in OS X Yosemite:
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click iCloud.
Click Set Up Family.
Follow the onscreen instructions.
After you set up Family Sharing, you can invite your family members to join.
Cheers,
Mario

HT4972 How come my iPad does not have software update in the settings?

Help, my iPad does not have software update available in settings, how do I update?

The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

How can I use a COM object that does not have a type library?

Hello,
I've created a com server in python for which I do not have a type library. I am able to call functions for this application in Python, TCL, I'm sure VB, etc. without the type library.
Must I have a type library registered to use this COM object with Labview? I was hoping I could simply supply the name to the refnum (or the GUID) then call functions by passings strings to the invoke node. This does not seem to be possible - am I missing something?
In the event that I cannot use a com server without a type library. Any recommendataions on how to create one? I'm wondering if I can use the same GUID and create a shell in LabWindows which generates the IDL/TBD file I need for Labview to see my
com server.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yes that is true. LabVIEW needs that to configure the Property and
Methode Nodes correctly. Otherwise it would need to have a special
Property and Method Node with a configuration dialog similar to the Call
Library Node, but a LOT more complicated. Not sure many people could
make use of that, and it would be a very tiring experience trying to get
things setup in that way, by going through the edit, test, and crash
cycle over and over again.

Where is apple support for iCloud. All online help asks for hardware number. iCloud does NOT have a hardwdare number

Are there live people to help with iCloud? Or is Apple too cheap to have phone support or iClouds after taking your money on a product that does not do as promised: play music you put on the cloud should be accessed across several devices. Nada on iPhone, nada on brand new PC with Windows 7. Nada to any Apple support unless I pay more money.
Used to buy exclusive Apple products. Won't any more and I know why lots of others won't now. Expensive and difficult to get real, live help once money is spend. Before you put down money, Apple is ALL sales: we'll help you, there is lots of Apple Support, we have Geniuses that will teach you, blah, blah, blah.

Agreed... we can only hope that they're using happily pounding away numbers on that on-screen keyboard

How come Apple Store does not sell 6 Core or 12 Core Mac Pro?

It was around March they had Apple Mac Pro 12 Core for sale but now they don't how come?
I tried looking on other websites and they said it's discontinued.
I tried eBay they have a few new ones for sale.

Just "Select" one of the new black cylinder models. Then you get a new screen that allows you to specify "features". One feature is 12 cores.
The cost of that Mac is nearly double the cost of a 4 core. Are you sure you are doing enough Ray Tracing or Compressor or similar work to keep that many cores busy?
For about the same money as the 12-core, you could have two complete four-core models.
For only US$500 more than the four core, you could have a 6-core, a nice balance between practical everyday capability and some modest ability to stretch into the heavy rendering work.

How come Flex Builder does not complain when semi-colons are omitted for AS3 statements?

Hi, I was wondering why my flexbuilder3 plugin for eclipse does not complain when and if I leave off a semi-colon at the end of an AS3 statement. Has anybody else experience this in their flex environments?
What can I do to fix this; as this is very annoying.
Thanks in advance!
Tonté

Hm... I see. Thank you all for your replies. I didn't realize AS3 does not require semi-colons at the end of AS3 statement unless there is more than one statement on the line. I will have to double check this for my self and report back. I guess I can't shake my Java habbits.
Thanks again!
Happy Flexing!

How come CS4 Bridge does not offer Photoshop batch operations?

I have had tons of problems with CS4 on my desktop PC but seem to have most of them resolved with a new video card and updated driver except this one. If it matters I'm running Windows XP service pack 3, 4gb of RAM of which 3.4 is available. It has an 2.67 GHz Intel Core2Duo cpu.
While in Bridge, under the "tools" menu, there no longer appears an option for batch operations such as I had with CS3. In CS3 it was the bottom option of all those listed. The only batch operation offered in CS4 is batch rename. I want to run Photoshop actions on multiple images selected in Bridge but cannot since this option is not being offered.
I have deleted preferences and rebuilt them several times, and uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop itself so many times that the CD is almost worn out. I have also upgraded CS4 to the latest upgrade on the Adobe site, 11.0.1.
I've done everything I can find to do but still not fixed. Anybody out there know the answer? This has not been a smooth transition and is very frustrating.
Thanks

OK, let's see how good you REALLY are...here's a new one. Well actually not
a new one, but it went away for so long I thought all the other things I've
done corrected it (CS4 update and video driver update). It's back with a
vengeance.
The brush tool stops working for no apparent reason. If I shut down
Photoshop and restart, it works. As long as I'm working on an image, it
works. Sometimes it will continue to work for several images. Other times
it will not work on the very next image opened. Earlier today it worked
fine for multiple images until I printed some, then stopped. I thought it
had something to do with printing so I shut down, restarted and worked
without making any prints. Again worked OK for a while and then stopped.
This is true for all brush type tools...paintbrush, clone, healing, etc. It
seemed like if I opened files directly from Photoshop instead of via bridge
that I had more success but now this evening it will only allow me to work
on a single image. If I close an image and open a new one, no brush
function no matter how I open it. This is just the way it acted up before
but then went dormant as I noted above.
There is no pattern or repeatability to it that can help me home in. By
that I mean, tomorrow it may indeed work fine for hours and then go wacky
again or it may go wacky on the first image. I thought it may have been a
RAM or some other cumulative type problem but this is shot down by the fact
that it will at times stop working immediately while other times work for a
long time.
I'm at the point where the only thing I can think of is it must be the
computer. I installed CS4 on an old clunky laptop and it works fine. I
installed the 30 day free version on this e-mail computer just as a test and
again it worked fine. On my super duper photo editing PC, it just won't go.
I didn't realize that I'd have to add the cost of a new computer into the
cost of upgrading to CS4 because the computer is not that old and definitely
not a clunker as noted in my original post. I'm already out about $200 for
two new video cards and still no luck.
Any ideas?

How come my iMac does not start?

I have followed all the bootcamp procedures. I created a USB disk accordingly with Windows 8 and it went through the process of installing Windows where I had to enter the code etc. Everything seemed to be going well until I needed to restart the computer. It now posts that there is no existing bootable disk.

Reset the SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Reset the PRAM: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/26871.html
Restart the computer while holding down your mouse button which if you hold it down long enough (5 minutes at most) should eject the disk
If the disk still doesn't come out at that point then you need hardware evaluation;
contact Apple, contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store.

Getting this error while opening a folder : This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel

Hi,
While trying to open a folder on my Windows 7 Home Premium, an error comes "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this
action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel." I tried searching on the net but did not get great support for the issue when it happens with folder opening.

Hi Nikunj Shah,
First, I suggest you download
Microsoft Safety Scanner or
Malicious Software Removal Tool to run a full scan.
The error messages here seems to be caused by the corrupted registries, which related with the folder association.
You may take a try to merge the following registry settings to reset the folder association, before that, remember to backup your registry settings first:

My daughter said that after she updated he Ipad to io6, my Icloud info appeared on it. She does not have my password so how could that happen? How do I make sure it gets off there.

My daughter said that after she updated her Ipad to io6, my name and other info appeared on her device. She does not have my login info so how could this happen? Her Mom purchased the device not me. The two devices have never been synced and never shared the same WiFi. How could this happen and how do I get it off?

It could only happen if your iCloud account was set up on her iPad when she updated to iOS 6. To fix this she needs to delete the account from her iPad and set up her own with a different Apple ID. (Deleting the account will only remove it from her iPad, not from iCloud. Your device will not be effected by this.)
If she was syncing data with your account such as contacts and calendars, her data would have been merged with yours and would now appear on both devices. In that case, she needs to go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPad. After everything is turned off, she should scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Next, she should set up a new iCloud account on her iPad using a different Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to this new account. You will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the unwanted data (such as deleting her contacts from your account, and vice versa). These changes will be reflected on each device. When finished you will have individual iCloud accounts with just your own data on them.
If she wasn't syncing her data with your account, all she needs to do is go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then set up her own with a different Apple ID.

How can I do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder which does not have firewire out/input? it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite RCA output?

I need to do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder (http://store.sony.co...ber=HDRAX2000/H) ..this camcorder model does not have firewire out/input ..it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite A/V video output..
I wonder how can I plug this camcorder to the firewire port of my laptop? Browsing on internet I found that Grass Valley Company produces this converter http://www.amazon.co...=A17MC6HOH9AVE6 ..but I am not sure -not even after checking the amazon reviews- if this device will send the video signal through firewire to my laptop, in order to live streaming properly? ..anyone in this forum could help me please?
Thanx

I can't broadcast with the built in iSight webcam... how would I zoom in or zoom out? or how would I pan? I've seem people doing it walking with their laptops but that's not an option for me... there's nothing wrong with my USB ports but that's neither an option to stream video because as far as I know through USB you can't connect video in apple operating systems ..you can for sure plug any video cam or photo camera through usb but as a drive to transfer data not as a live video camera... is by firewire an old interface developed by apple that you can connect all sorts of cameras to apple computers... unfortunately my new sony HDR-AX2000 camcorder doesn't have firewire output...
thanx
