HT204407 Multiple Devices Listed under ME in Find My Friends

In the newly upgraded Find My Friends, when I press on ME, the setting for SHARE MY LOCATION FROM shows This Device and the older replaced device. How do I get rid of the old device from the list?

You/re welcome.
Happy to help.

How can I see my iPhone on the Shared devices list on sidebar of Finder ?

I have a Home Network Wireless-N based on a Linksys Broadband Router WRT300N. I have my MacBook Pro and my iPhone, my wife her MacBook, my son a Windows portable and still a Desktop Windows PC. The desktop Windows PC is connected via Ethernet cable direct to the Router, the other four devices connect wireless.
The problem is that I can only see the desktop Windows PC in my Finder's Sidebar on my MacBook Pro. Since all the other devices are connected in the wireless network with full access to internet, I suppose I should see them in the sharing devices list on the sidebar. Tried already to connect to server under Menu Go To without any luck. Someone knows why ? Thanks for some help.

The iPhone doesn't have a disk mode or wireless N capabilities.

Why are .xlsm file not listed under spreadsheet in finder?

In finder (os10.8.2) the .xlsm files are listed under documents not spreadsheets. Is there a way to get all spreadsheet listed properly?

There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Adhoc device listed under "devices"

Hello, I'am wondering about:
in the wifi menu next to the volume button for example is an adhoc device (HPCA70...) listed under "devices"- what could this be?
I already made a new OSX Mountain Lion installation on my MBP Retina, but the adhoc device or what else this is is still listed under devices.
What is that?
Thanks
Thomas

Could be a neighbors network SSID name. You just briefly picked up the signal.

Cannot see Device List under iTunes when my Nano is connected. Can only see the Eject for the Nano. Help

My iPod Nano is connected to the PC since I can see the Eject icon in the Top RHS of the window.
Apple support tells me I should be able to see the Nano under Devices - I can neither see 'Devices' nor the Nano
The is extremely fraustrating as I just want to dump a few podcasts to the nano and get on with life ...
Where is the Devices list mentioned in the Help - all I see is music I've uploaded and tabs for the Store and Podcasts etc.
Thgis is my second evening I've tried to get this going - I've re-installed iTunes, reset the nano (7th Generation), taken out all other USB peripherals apart from keyboard and mouse, restarted the PC.
Many thanks in Advance

Never Lost at Sea,
If you have a menu bar with buttons for file, edit, view, controls, etc., click on view and choose "show sidebar". I was looking for the same thing until a couple of days ago when, working with an Apple tech on an unrelated song issue, he told me how to display that sidebar with the devices display. I had to click on the little symbol, upper left corner, choose "show menu bar", which wasn't displayed up to then, and then what I just told you. Hope that is what you're after.

DVRs not showing up in devices list under MY TV on web

Ah, the remote DVR functionality...... Love it when it works, frustrating when it flips out....
I've been jacking around with trying to get one of my 3 HD DVRs back so that it is accessible via the web; After a long battle (yes, it is the listener that just wasn't talking to the router), I finally was happy to see that all 3 were live as of today.
No sooner had I taped up the box and shipped back the replacement DVR that i go to the web again and find that NONE of the devices show up under MY TV in the DVR section. I'd usually see all of the previous hardware, a converter STB and my active accounts.
Any idea on what I could be doing or COULD do to get this back; I was so close to getting back to normal (and don't have the life force to call the 800 # again).
Thanks, all!

Two other data points:
*when you go to MY TV/ SET TOP BOXES : It looks like it tries to load but then just is blank on the screen with no errors
*to further trouble shoot, i logged in from another PC with a different browser (firefox) and got the same results (blank screen underneath the MY TV: Set-Top Box(es) section....

Multiple macs showing under Shared in Finder

Hi,
Running Yosemite 10.10 on an iMac 27".
Noticed that I have 19 Pete's iMac (#) showing under Shared in the Finder as per screen shot below. I recall this happening a few OS X versions ago but what's the cause. Is it anything to do with my ISP assigning and changing IP addresses regularly?
Does this matter at all.
All thoughts appreciated.
Pete

I had the same problem on my home network with my MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012).
My home network has an Airport express attached to the cable modem creating the wireless network and an Airport extreme on the other end of the house extending the network. On the network are two Apple TVs, an iMac, my MacBook Pro, a TIVO, and 3 iPhones.
For me the solution involved two steps: first, turning off "Wake for Wi-Fi network access" and "enable Power Nap when plugged into a power adapter" under the Power Adapter Tab of Energy Saver in System Preferences. Next I turned off all the computers on the network, unplugged each Apple TV, and unplugged the airports. I turned back on the airports followed by the Apple TVs and then the computers.
The downside is that back to my mac and find my mac will not work when the macbook is asleep in this configuration.
I worked with Apple support and the case was escalated. They called me back to tell me there was not a fix.
Initially we had turned off "Wake for Wi-Fi network access" and restarted the Airport Express and that made the MacBook Pro stop renaming itself and eliminated all but one of the phantom computers under Shared in the Finder side bar (number 9). But, the remaining phantom computer was driving me nuts.
I found a thread on Reddit that noted:
The problem is because of a bug between Yosemite and sleep servers. These servers reside in Apple TVs and Airports and act as a proxy for a sleeping machine on Wi-Fi. For now the only fix seems to be:
System Preferences --> Energy Saver, and UNTICK "Wake for network access".
Shut down your computer and then cycle the power on your Apple TV/s and/or Airport/s.
Power-up your computer, System Preferences --> Sharing, and rename the "Computer Name" as you wish.
This step is what killed my last phantom computer on the network.
There is an Apple support community thread that details a fix in terminal that will allow wake for network access, but I've not tried that yet. Here is that thread - Yosemite is renaming my computer - why?
Here is the Reddit thread that helped me identify that devices on the network were creating one of the phantom computers - http://www.reddit.com/r/osx/comments/2hxhp9/yosemite_computer_name_changing_for_ some_reason/
And this support community thread was also helpful - Computer name changes incrementally (1, 2, 3...)

TS4006 I lost my iPad and it's not showing up on the devices list of the Find my iPhone App

I lost my iPad and now it's not showing up on the Find my iPhone App devices list. I just have my iPhone and my iPad on it. I know that the app is enabled on my iPad b/c I have tested it from my iPad in the past. Any ideas why it's not showing up on the devices list? And how can I get it back on my device list so I can find it?

Is the app compatible with the iOS on the phone? Do you have automatic downloads enabled on the phone?

Wireless Vs. Ethernet and iTunes "Devices" list

iTunes 9.0.2 and TV 3.0 software. Snow Leopard OS.
TV can "see" the Internet, download files, view YouTube, etc.
iTunes can "see" the Internet and works as expected. But the "Devices" list doesn't appear when I use the wireless connection.
When connected via ethernet the Devices list shows the TV and I am able to move files back and forth. The iTunes preferences shows the TV and I can change the "synching" options.
As soon as I switch to wireless the iTunes preferences show the TV and "Synching" but nothing is being transferred (no network activity).
Wireless via Belkin router using WEP 128. Ethernet using the same Belkin router.

I'm very methodical with my diagnostics and don't do "willy-nilly" steps to try and fix issues.
My "Source" files are stored on a connected HD (Firewire) and iTunes knows how to find them.
I've "rebuilt" my iTunes Library by following the steps at the Apple Support pages (move the .xml file out, deleted older (obsolete) folders and "import" the .xml file again).
TV has been connected via wireless for over two years without issue. Since I've only been downloading "rented" files I rarely open iTunes and just recently (with the 3.0 and 9.0.2 updates) noticed the TV didn't appear in the iTunes "Devices" list (under the Library).
I purchased a new file via TV and it downloaded and was viewed without issue on the TV. It was then I decided to test the new features with iTunes and noticed the file was never "moved" to my Library.
iTunes preferences suggest my TV was "synching" but I observed no network activity on the Belkin router.
This is where I started all of the "fixes" I could think of:
Use the Menu-minus buttons on the remote to "Test" the TV. No issues were reported.
Used the "Reset Settings" (Settings menu). No change. Then the "Factory Restore" (which deleted everything but my most recent purchase).
It was then I decided to test the ethernet connection and everything worked as expected. I was able to move my recent purchase to my iTunes Library and then move all of my other Library files (Music, Photos and purchases) back to the TV.
Switched back to my wireless network and both devices work as intended. But the TV doesn't show in the iTunes Library (Devices). iTunes preferences show the name of the TV and "Synching".
I'm stuck at this point.

My trusted device list is empty

I have an iPad2 iOS 7.1.1 and an old iPhone 3GS iOS 6.1.3. Both of them are associated with my AppleID. Both of them have Find My iPhone set up and show up under Find My iPhone under iCloud.com. However neither of these devices show up in Trusted Devices list under my AppleID under Password and Security. Anyone know why this is happening?

Hello frozen999,
Trusted devices are associated with two-step verification. Without this feature activated, you will not have any trusted devices listed.

What happened to my old iPod in my device list?

My iPod was stolen on October 22, and after a long month and a half of procrastination, my friend cleared it off and i bought it from home. Both my old and purchased from friend one were 32gb ipod touch 4th generations. While the theft wouldn't really be able to do much with an ipod he couldn't get into, I didn't really want to erase it (which was impossible because it wasn't connected to the internet) until I bought the one from my friend. I restored the one I bought with all the apps and music I had before, but when I go into my devices listed under my Apple ID, then only one that shows up is the one I got from my friend. I was going to ask Apple if they could somehow erase the stolen one for me, but I can't do that without it being my product. This also means I can't access the serial number, which I do have around the house somewhere, but it will be hard to find. Does anyone think it's worth going through the trouble to get them to erase it, and if so, how would I go about doing so?

I did that to ge all my stuff back, but I guess the fact that I restored it onto the new one is effectively making the new one the old one.

IPhone not showing up in devices list

I have an iPhone 3Gs and a 27" iMac i7. I downloaded the remote app from the store, and the setup worked the first time I tried it. I added an AppleTV to this mix, and now the phone won't show up in the devices list (and can't find my library). The TV does, but the phone doesn't. When I look in the iTunes preferences, the TV says syncing even though it appears to be done. The "look for remotes" box is still checked on the devices tab. I tried resetting everything, and even deleted and re-added (and re-synced) the TV. It still says "syncing" in the preferences. Everything is on the same wireless network. It's annoying since it worked fine before I added the TV. Although, even when I unplug the TV the app doesn't work.

Download the current iTunes installation and re-install it over the existing - not need to uninstall iTunes first.

Multiple device connection

Does the bluetooth in macbook can support mutiple device connection in parallel? Like mouse and printer at the same time.
thanks

Just add devices to the bluetooth 'Devices' list under the bluetooth preferences.
Hopefully this is helpful or solved your problem. Consider rewarding some points!

What device list?

iTunes never shows my iPhone when its not docked. I know the directions to use remote say to run remote and then select our phones from the device list, but i cant find it at all! I think my computer is just not finding the phone even though we are on the same router and network. I know its just some silly little thing but i cant find it! Any suggestions!?

Macbook//System Preferences.../Network/Airport
Network Name drop-down select Create Network...
name your newly-created computer-to-computer network then iPhone/Settings/Choose a Network...
Turn WIFI on on your iPhone and select the network you have created on Macbook
Open remote app on iPhone, follow instructions, dock iPhone, select remote from devices list, enter 4 digit code, enjoy remote app that allows you to control iTunes from your iPhone through connected WIFI network.
It's really that simple to set up should be no problem at all if you follow the instructions listed here.

Change account in iOS 8 Find my Friends?

It seams that under iOS 8, Find my Friends is now lock into using my iCloud login?
In the past I was able to use a separate Apple ID for Find my Friends.
Am I missing where the logout is so that I can change back to the Apple ID all my friends are following?

I agree that this is a real step back and a bit of a pain. My wife and I have always shared an iCloud account and have been able to separate our iMessage and Facetime and Find Friends accounts but keep everything else together.
I understand that we are supposed to be using family sharing, and for the most part it looks like it would work, except for the photos.
I have upgraded to iCloud photos and was really looking forward to having just one wall of photos that my wife and I can share and manage an keep everything on all of our devices.
If I understand how family sharing works with photos, we now have a separate 'family' stream and we have to copy pictures from our own (now separated) iCloud photo accounts and copy them into the family's stream to be able to see each other's photos.
I don't think I want to do that, so does this mean we have to give up on find friends?
I just read something that makes this a dealbreaker. With the family sharing, you cannot share an iTunes match account. So, looks like we will not be using family sharing and will just have to live without find friends.
One workaround is to use 'find my phone'. If I need to know where my wife is, I can just look up where her phone is.
