HT201454 I systemically tried every suggestion on Apple's "If you don't see your family's shared content" help page. None worked. Does anyone have a solution?
My wife and I are set up for family sharing, but neither OS X nor iOS app store purchases appear to be sharing (i.e. the App doesn't just say "Get" for the other person after it is bought by the partner). Apple's suggestions did not work. Does anyone have a solution to this?
I solved my own problem but I don't think this is how Family Sharing is meant to work. On my Mac, I purchased an app. On my wife's mac, when I search for that app in the store, it has a button with a price on it (not a cloud symbol or anything that would indicate it had already been purchased by someone in Family Sharing). HOWEVER, when I click on the "Purchases" button at the top of the app store, use the pull down menu to change to the other member of the family, then all the apps can be installed.
I thought sharing would mean that the apps would be free from their normal site in the app store. If you have to go to purchases to see apps purchased by the family, then you might miss that fact and double pay. Perhaps Apple did this on purpose to help its app developers make more money despite Family Sharing.

This is almost always a hardware failure that requires replacing the phone.
Not clear what you mean by "some steps on apple website", but try everything in this support article:

Make the playlist on both your computer and your iPod. This should make it so nothing will be deleted. If you have the 3rd Gen iPod Touch, you could update to iOS 5 and get iCloud. This will make your iPod "insta-sync" when you do anything on it.

Most likely a hardware failure, & if so, you won't be able to restore/activte your phone. If you've tried at least two times, & are still getting this error, make an appointment at any Apple store, or call AppleCare.

Under Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and Boot Camp, my 27 inch Apple LED Cinema Display checks out as a Generic PnP Monitor and is shown as NOT HDCP compliant. I haven't been able to find any kind of an .inf file to use. Does anyone have a solution? Or is Apple's implementation of HDCP (if it's there) incomplete?
I am having this same issue. Im not sure if this is the cause but I think this is keeping PowerDVD Ultra 11 from playing back Bluray under Windows 7 / Bootcamp

I am trying to re-print a portion of a photo enlarged through "poster" in the print dialog box. The original photo printed just fine with the exception of one "page." This is what I'm trying to re-print. I have gone into the Multi- page box clicked on 4 x 4 and then selected the pages I did not want to print. This isn't working as it prints some pages and doesn't print others. All in all it is using a tremendous amount of ink for this project. Additionally I am printing on fabric which involves a deal of time in that preparation. The waste factor is turning into a huge cost. It should just be a simple thing to tell the print dialog box what I want it to do and have it do it. Help, does anyone have a solution?
Hi Pat,
Yes I marked the question as Assumed Answered. I needed to move on. I have never taken part in a forum and couldn’t wait any longer for any input so not wanting anyone to waste the time answering me, I marked the question as assumed answered. I guess this was the wrong thing to do and I apologize to the forum.
I did go another route and loaded and enlarged the photo in Photoshop Elements, Then cropped the photo to the area I needed to reprint. I probably should have done this in the first place!
Again, my apology to the forum for my lack of patience in waiting for a reply.

Try double clicking your home button then force close the stuck PDF by swiping upward. Once you've done that just click the home button again to exit.

Hi, my wifi button just greyed out a few minutes ago and I can't connect to wifi. Have followed instructions given by Apple support but it's still not working. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks & Happy New Year :-)
First, you don't have a 5+ year old 3GS. The 3GS has only been around for under 4 years. In fact, 5 years ago there were NO iPhones; the original iPhone (2 generations before the 3GS) came out on June 29, 2007 - not quite 5 years ago. The 3GS was released June 19, 2009.
That aside, you can sync multiple phones to one computer - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495. boogeyman is wrong. It is 100% safe to create an additional user name on her computer, log in with that name, and back up the phone. See this for details on what you want to do: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109 -
