HT1947 Lost Apple TV remote, how can I use app if the home sharing is not already enabled?

I lost my Apple TV remote so I can't change the settings on the tv. Is there a way to use the remote app on my ipad without having the actual hardware remote to program the tv?

The remote app requires home sharing to be enabled and both to be on the same network. Since that's not the case you will have to purchase a new remote.

If you have home sharing enabled on the Apple TV and an IOS running on the same network you can use the remote app. Otherwise, you will need to purchase a new remote.

I lost my iPhone 5 how can recover my photos from the iCloud

I lost my iPhone 5 how can recover my photos from the iCloud?

The only way photos are stored in icloud is in a backup from an ios device. This assumes that icloud backup was turned on and that camera roll was turned on. Note that photo stream is a slightly different service that is used to sync photos from one device to another, it's not really a storage service.
To retrieve photos that are in a backup, you need to reset a device (wipe all data from it) and perform a restore. Note that many users have had problems getting their photos back from a backup - for one reason or another. Remember, the suggested way of storing photos is to sync them to a computer or service like Dropbox.

Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. This will erase your device. Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

Everything that you have checked in your icloud settings will be shared between devices using the same Apple ID. If you don't want icloud to share that information, then simply turn off that process under settings > icloud

I have two iPhones and an iPad under same Apple ID. How can I change one of the iPhones to a separate id?

I have 2 iPhones & an iPad under 1 Apple ID. How can I change 1 of the iPhones to a separate account?

Sign out of the Apple ID on the device in question, making sure to disable the Find My iDevice feature.
Sign in with the new Apple ID.
If the intent is to sell the device, simply restore as new after disabling the Find My iDevice and signing out.

Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts. The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv. How can I use my iphone to do the same?

Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

I am trying to add my sons email address to our family apple id but it says that it already associated with another apple id. How can i find out what the apple id is and take his email address off that one?

On the iPad open Settings/iCloud and delete the account using the button at the bottom. Once deleted log in using the other account. For iTunes Stores use Settings/iTunes & Apps Stores, tapp on the Apple ID at the top then sign out. Once done sign in using the other account. Once you are happy with the changes plug your iPad into your computer to update the backup.

Hi kelori617,
If you are having issues organizing the Apps on your iPhone via iTunes, you may want to double-check the steps in the following article and make sure you are syncing any changes to your device:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Sync and organize iOS apps
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12115
iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync and organize iOS apps
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12315
If all of the steps are correct and the changes still aren't being retained when you restart your iPhone, you may want to make sure your data is backed up, then try restoring your iPhone to factory settings, restore your data from the backup, then test to see if you can organize your apps via iTunes:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

How can I use app find iPod for my daughters iPod even if she has own acct Id?

How can I use app find iPod for my daughters iPod even if she has own acct Id?

Hi,
So far so good! I was successful with my first request-and thanks, but I guess i did not ask enough.
New question: Is there any way for me to have my Apple devices show up with my daughters even though we have different apple id's? I was able to have her sign in and I could see but, if she doesn't sign in I can't see her device. She is only 15 and I going on a trip soon that I would like to just have security if she looses her device or I'll know she is okay. I don't want to sync and see everything, just the where abouts of the device. We were able to create a music folder for her music only and not mine- Success!
Did I ask too much?
Thanks for your quick reply!

I got an iPhone 4 while I was living in Japan. How can I use it in the states now that I live here?

I was using an iPhone 4 while I was living in Japan. How can I use it in the states now that I live here? It is a perfectly good phone and I don't want to use it only as an iPod and camera.

That's one option. The other is to sell it (you can probably get close to what you paid for it) or trade it in and get a new unlocked phone directly from an Apple store. That way you can use it in the US, and also in Japan when you return there.
