How to update all my devices so that they are compatible?

I'm stuggling to figure out why I can't home share between my iPad Air, Apple TV and the iMac. Particularly, I'd like to be able to pull up photos from iPhoto on the TV. We've been using Apple TV via Wi-Fi to date. I currently have Mac OS X Version 10.7.5. When I select "software update" I'm told it is up to date. So then I go to iPhoto to try and get the latest version and I can't because I don't have 10.9 or higher. I'm not sure if I need to purchase a new version for the Mac or what. Also, if I do, what happens to everything I currently have on my Mac? I don't want to lose anything as I use for everything (business, personal etc). I need someone savy to explain this to me as though I were a 7 year old! PLEASE!

A couple of questions:
What generation iMac do you have?
What generation Apple TV do you have?
The answer to these question will fill in the gaps and allow for a solution to emerge. Thanks.

  • Just bought a pair of earpods for the shuffle 3rd gen the first the remote doesn't work so i exchanged them and these don't work either! I already checked that they are compatible and should work! Any ideas or advice?

    Hi I recently bought a pair of earpods for my 3rd Gen ipod shuffle only the remote does not work, so i exchanged them from an unhelpful member of staff from Currys who said the problem could be my device. So i just tested the new ones and the same problem again! I already checked that they are compatible so i don't understand why the remote doesn't work. Will be greatful with any advice or answers on this one. Thanks!

  • Got the Trojan.Zbot before the antivirus kicked in. All previous emails show that they are there but can't see the contents. Can they be restored?

    All old emails are showing that they are there but there are no contents when you try to open them.

    right click the folder, select properties and then the repair button. A new index will be generated which may fix the issue or make the empty mails disappear because they are no longer available to be indexed.
    BTW look in your anti virus program for quarantined files with names like inbox

  • Is there a way to lock several tabs that you need all the time so that they are always available?

    I use the same 6 or 7 web pages everyday at work and I'm wondering if there is a way to keep those tabs open by default?  It would be especially nice if they stayed in the same order.  My work flow includes using LinkedIN, Basecamp, Zoominfo, SalesForce, Facebook, etc. and I need to always have them open and easy to find.
    I think that as we move more to browser-based software solutions, being able to keep pages open, properly labeled and easy to find is crucial for streamlining work flow.
    By proper lables i mean: when using brower-based software, the name of the software should be shown in the tab instead of what part of that software you are using.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi ,
    If you use the “Add Bookmark for These Tabs” option under the Bookmarks menu, it will create a single bookmark link that will automatically open all of those pages in seperate tabs when selected. You may find the following article helpful (it's aimed at Mountain Lion, but the same option should be available in Mavericks):

  • How do you keep photos in order that they are in on PC?

    Ho do I make sure the order of my photos on my iPad match the same order in my PC folders ?
    Ipad -  ios 6.1.3
    PC - Windows 7
    iPad, 4th Generation

    The iPad defaults to putting things in 'event order'....as in date order.
    The only way I know of would be to get a program that edits the properties of your files and edit the 'save' date to either put them in order, or one thing I did was make all the  files the exact same date and time, then it defaulted to name order.
    Or look for a different photos app that has better functionality than the built in one.

  • Apple recently merged all my devices so that if I miss messages or facetime calls on one device, they get forwarded to my other devices. how do I UNDO this so this no longer happens?

    Apple recently merged all my devices so that if I miss messages or facetime calls on one device, they get forwarded to my other devices. how do I UNDO this so this no longer happens?

    If you don't want them to be unified, don't use the same Apple ID for FaceTime and iMessage on our devices.  Go to Settings>Messsages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID.  Do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

    Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent.  This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account.  Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?

    You have to look at the email protocol being used.  the Apple email system uses IMAP, does Tinyworld use IMAP or POP?
    Does the email system permit delivery receipts to be requested?
    Just some of the things one needs to determine from the information provided by the email service provider.

  • I just purchase an IPhone5C to upgrade from my IPhone4, but I do not know how to get all of my photos that were on ICloud on my Photo Stream (875 photos), on to my new phone. I thought that since my 5C can see Icloud that all photos would be there...

    I just purchase an IPhone5C to upgrade from my IPhone4, but I do not know how to get all of my photos that were on ICloud on my Photo Stream (875 photos), on to my new phone. I thought that since my 5C can see Icloud that all photos would be there... Can someone help me get the pics from my Iphone4 to the 5C?

    Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there (subject to a 1,000 photo limit) until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
    The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

    Hi,
    Through BDC or LSMW first you have to do the recording for particular transaction code and then base on that u have to prepare the flat file to upload the file for the same.
    For BDC programing you have to take the help of ABAP progmer but LSMW you can also do.
    For more information about LSMW plz go to following link :

  • My PC with iTunes on it got fried (lightning).  I have a 2nd PC with iTunes on it.  How can I move my devices to that iTunes (I have recovered data from the drive)

    I had a primary PC that had iTunes on it that got fried by lightning strike a few months ago.  I have several devices (1 iPod, 1 iPad, 3 iPhones) that were synched with that iTunes install.  I had a secondary PC with a separate iTunes installation on it (separate music library.)  I recovered the hard drive so I can move the music to the secondary PC, but how can I sync my devices with that 2nd installation of iTunes without losing all of the information on those devices?  (I haven't saved or synched those devices since the summer.)  Can I keep the playlists from from the first PC?
    Thanks in advance for any and all help.

  • Hi ! How to identify a 2.0 usb on the Mac mini because I was told that they are not all 2.0

    Someone knows how to identify the usb 2.0 on a mac mini because I use the mini just for music and I have been told that they are not all 2.0.

    Actually, you can have a mixture of USB2.0 and USB 3.0 devices on the 2012 Mini's. USB3.0 devices will operate at 3.0 speed and USB2.0 devices will operate at 2.0 speed. It all depends which device is plugged in first not the slowest speed device. So, if a USB3.0 device is plugged in first, it will use SuperSpeed and USB2.0 devices will use High-Speed. If a USB2.0 device is plugged in first, ALL devices (3.0 and 2.0) will operate at High-Speed (USB2.0).
    In the System Information under USB there are two types of USB hubs. One is USB High-Speed Bus which will show the USB2.0 devices. Another is USB SuperSpeed Bus which shows the USB3.0 devices. You can see your devices under each Bus.
    Below is from this Apple Link:
    How do I get the best performance from the USB 3 ports?
    The first device you plug in will configure the port, so always connect USB 3 capable hubs or devices first.
    What happens if I plug in a USB 2 device into the USB 3 port first?
    If you plug in a USB 2 hub first, all devices connected or "daisy-chained" to that hub will operate up to the maximum transfer rate of USB 2 speed (480 Mbps).

  • HT1918 My granddaughter accidentally purchased an app.  How can I secure my device so that doesn't happen?

    My granddaughter likes to play games and I only download the free ones for her because she only uses them briefly.  How can I secure my device so that doesn't happen?

    Depending upon what version of iOS that you have it on, you might have a Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password setting which you can set to 'Immediately' - there should also be an 'In-App Purchases' setting on the Restrictions screen which you can set to 'off' so as to prevent in-app purchases bein made.

  • How do I ungroup my tabs so that they all show again?

    I accidentally hit group your tabs and the several I had open disappeared. How do I ungroup them so that they are again displayed??

    To disable/reset Tab groups:
    Click the name field of each tab group in the Panorama window (Shift+Ctrl+E) and reset each name to an empty string.
    Drag the Tab group icon of the Tab bar in the toolbar palette (View > Toolbar > Customize or Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout).
    Reset the browser.panorama.* prefs on the about:config page to remove the "Move to Group" entry in the right-click context menu of the Tab bar and close and restart Firefox.
    *browser.panorama.experienced_first_run
    *browser.panorama.session_restore_enabled_once
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
