HT3819 HeLP! On hold with Apple for ONE HOUR!!!
We have apple TV, ipad, 2 iphones, an imac & mac laptop -- all i want to know is how to STOP the programs from Apple TV auto downloading on my other devices - thats all - should be super easy.
I turned on home sharing
I want the music to share across all devices
I DO NOT want entire seasons of TV shows to take up storage on other devices unless I choose it file by file
TOOK 3 phone calls - first two I am no hold and apple send me an email saying they couldnt reach me (WHILE i am on hold!!)
Third phone call talked to a rep, she transferred me to some "Expert" - and now on hol AGAIN for alomost 20 minutes
I HOPE YOU ARE READING THIS, APPLE SUPPORT. ( Which I am PAYING FOR).
Perhaps this is a simple thing to figure out, but not for all users. I am in the category of people who are looking through all the help topics but this one isn't addressed as far as I can see, and it is not immediately evident in preferences...
Thanks if anyone can help for real.
On your devices, settings > itunes & app stores > automatic downloads
On your macs, itunes preferences > store > automatic downloads

I tried to download itunes to my phone.First it wanted it to download the new itunes.We also updated our Windows xp.I kept coming up can't complete because there was an error when setting up.One time is was error 9 and they tried to help me.I have a laptop with the internet and we tried it there.We were able to get service pack 3 downloaded.So we did upgrade the itunes on the laptop even though I have never put music on there but there is some from someone .I never heard of many of the songs.Any how I did try to download and restore on the laptop and then come to the land computer and see if the box comes up to restore the contacts.Well it didn 't work and now my phone won't even turn on .I have no one to call if something happened to me.I am going to the Apple store right off the bat tomorrow morning.I have everything in the box and the phone and reciept and see if they make it work or give me another one.I have to take my sim card again since They gave it back to me.I bet it means I can't sync the photos in the phone.Even with 2 computers and talking with 3 people it still did not work.All because I wanted to download the itunes to my phone.I don't care now if I can just get my phone to work and my contacts are in there.I hope I don't have to buy the ringtones again I bought 4 of them.Any one have this problem and what did you do to fix it?
The Apple rep tried both those ideas and both failed. The rep was connected to my computer so she
could see my screen and show me exactly what to do. My iPhone (not ipad) never has synced photos to my computer,
I have to use explorer to copy and paste or cut and paste them to my PC . It is the syncing back to my iPhone of only the much smaller selected photos that used to sync in itunes but now the itunes sync button cannot be clicked to make that happen. And the reason I only sync back selected photos is that my total PC pictures file is about 40 Gb. Also I find it a lot more useful to have a small number of folders ( no sub-folders of course) so I can quickly locate on my iPhone pictures from different categories such as family, autos, etc. None of this posed any problems for over a year until just recently. I am reading on other threads of many people with other iTunes syncing problems, and wonder now if it is the latest iTunes updates that are causing the problems? While I have tried removing and reinstalling iTunes on my PC, I don't know how or if you can, install a previous version? -
I bought an apple iPod 5th generation the other day and I cannot remember the unlock passcode. I have done the restore thing, but because I never set it up or synced it with iTunes, it does not recognize my device. It is disabled for one hour. There's only a few things that could be my passcode, but because it disables for an hour, it is time consuming trying to figure it out. What do I do? I do not care about having to erase everything since it's new and there's nothing on it, but it was never synced with iTunes.
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
Peace, I am one of millions who is loyal and loves apple, I was not completely happy with iOS7 for one thing which the new themes and I really think that the old icons theme is what's makes it unique, I was wondering if we can make an option to choose from new and previous once?

You are not addressing Apple here.
No, once you install iOS 7 that is it. -

I'm using a 15" Macbook Pro running OSX6.8 and cannot upgrade. I have a subscription to Adobe CC but none of these work on this so I was on with Adobe for 5 hours trying to install and launch Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Muse, and Acrobat Pro from CS6. Well, InDesign is the only one that works and I have a ton of work due! I don't have a serial number for Photoshop or Illustrator except for CS3, and they don't work. InDesign gave me no problems. Illustrator says it can't work on this machine. Photoshop needs a serial number. I'm stumped and getting anxious and freaked out. Can anyone help? Adobe Chat is down right now.
if you have a cc subscription, close ps > sign out and then back in to your cc desktop > open ps.
ai cs6 requires:
Multicore Intel processor with 64-bit support
Mac OS X v10.6.8 or v10.7. Adobe Creative Suite 5, CS5.5, and CS6 applications support Mac OS X v10.8 and v10.9 when installed on Intel-based systems.*
2 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended)
2 GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
1024 x 768 display (1280 x 800 recommended) with 16-bit video card -
Hi, no matter what setting I change, I am having the same problem.
I invite people to an event I create on iCal, but in the invitation message received the invitees, the event seems to be scheduled for one hour earlier. E.g, I create the event for 14:00 GMT, yet the invitation message says 13:00 GMT. We are in the same time zone with the other people receiving the message. And I have my iCal settings as well as iCloud settings set to GMT.
Can you please help me? I'm really frustrated!What exactly are you doing and what version are you using with OS X 10.8?

My mac will not reboot after hibernating for one hour. Is there something I am missing?
When my mac ibernates (sleeps) for one hour it appears to freeze and the only way I can reboot it is to turn it off at the power source and then turn it on again. Is there some simple remedy I am missing?
Your Boot Drive may be dying.
Do not wrestle with it now. Instead, take a new drive and Install Mac OS X on it from scratch. If you do not have an available drive, buy one -- they are well under US$100. There is no need to shuffle drives around, your Mac will boot from whatever drive is specified in System Preferences > Startup Drive.
Once you have a working version of Mac OS X, the full Mac OS X can be applied to resolving those other problems. Solving problems with just the Installer and its Utilities is very difficult. -
Hi,
can any one tell me why when I sync my Iphone to my Mac all my Calendar to do´s appear as though due for one hour later than they show in my computer? Does anyone know how to fix it??Not simple enough. Please read the original concern.
The issue is not "getting music to the new machine" or "authorizing the new machine" or "transferring purchases from an idevice". The issue is that after doing all those things, even creating a backup using the new iTunes/Mac, syncing my device with the new library erases all the app data from the iPhone, as well as folder structure and page layout. Music is expendable in this situation as it's just a matter of moving the files around. (Which I did before I ever started this exercise.)
The problem is that everything from email accounts to folders are lost when I sync the device with a new computer. I tried this on my iPad first and spent a good deal of time re-arranging everything and getting all the data back. The pictures are just gone. Good thing I backed them up on the old PC.
It won't be as simple on my iPhone as I have a ton of stuff on it and can't afford to lose anything. Some of the data is gave saves and such, but other things are more important. And I don't want to lose those game saves either. -
Screen Cracked on hold with Apple!
After trying to call Apple about my iPhone not working on the top half and struggling with it the screen cracked, while on the phone with Apple.
Been doing some research and found some interesting things here about this seemingly growing problem. Check out this page I found. Wondering what the thoughts are?
http://www.billiardinstruction.com/iPhone.htm
My screen doesn't look this bad however, the research here certainly is something to think about.Your iPhone screen didn't randomly crack while you were on the iPhone or on hold with AppleCare so for others - here is the rest of the story copied from one of your posts in another thread.
+Everything was great, call went through and as I was waiting on hold, I was able to hit Speaker. *Then the phone still connected to the computer _slipped off the table and hit the floor 2 feet up,_ Guess what...I lost the connection to Apple and...the screen cracked.* I have no cell service.+
This isn't some "growing" problem but the screen is glass and if the iPhone lands in a certain way when dropped, the screen can crack as with any glass product. I've dropped drinking glasses on hard floor that didn't crack and others slipped off a coffee table on carpeted floor that did.
I've dropped my iPhone on concrete more than once and my iPhone's screen did not crack.

HELP!! WRT54G2 works for one computer, but not for the other
I have a WRT54G2 and it is connected to 2 computers. The internet works in one computer, but not on the other. The tech support said i needed to configure it or firmware or something like that. But my product is out of warranty and I really need the internet on the other computer as well. Please Help!!!
As your one computer is working fine then there is no problem with the router so far...
The computer which is not working...check the IP Address on that...
Click Start >> All Programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt...A black box will appear(Command Prompt)...In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press 'Enter'...Look for Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection IP Address , Subnet Mask and Default Gateway...
IP Address should be 192.168.1.x, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1 (assuming your router is 192.168.1.1)...
If you get the above mentioned IP Address, Subnet and Gateway Address then you should ping the Gateway, type ping 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...If it gives you request timed out then disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer...
If you get 4 replies then type ping 4.2.2.2 and press Enter, if you get request timed out, then you need to upgrade your router's firmware...If you get 4 replies then type ping yahoo.com and press Enter...If you get replies for Yahoo then you should get the Internet after adjusting the browser settings...
Adjusting Browser Settings : Open an IE, click Tools >> Internet Options, then delete all files, cookies, history, forms...Goto "Connections", make sure Never Dial a Connection is checked, click on LAN Settings and make sure all the options are unchecked...Once you are done click on O.k...Close the IE and re-open it...
If yahoo times out then provide static DNS on your LAN Connection...
Click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>>Network Connections- Right click on the icon for Local Area Connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the Properties button- Select 'Use the Following DNS Settings' Preferred DNS 4.2.2.2 Alternate DNS - 192.168.1.1>>Click on Ok button to Save and Click on "Close" on main Properties window...You should be able to go online... -
All of a sudden my ipod will only hold a charge for an hour
all of a sudden my ipod will only hold a charge for an hour
Strange, but if it's under a yr. old, you should still have a warranty on it, and Apple can replace it for you.

Replying to someone else's post, made months ago in a forum for another product, usually isn't a good strategy for assitance. Perhaps you meant instead to clarify your other post, also in the wrong forum? (I've asked the Hosts to move it to the iPod nano forum). Your other thread is here, at least right now:

Help on CachedRowSet with setDataSourceName for Oracle needed
Hello users,
I am using WL6.1. and SUN's CachedRowSet. It works fine with setURL and it is very
fast with Oracle's oci thin driver. One more time for BEA people: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
is more than 3 times faster than weblogic.jdbc.oci.Driver. Of course when I do setURL,
it bypasses WL and go directly to the database. And it is not using any connection
pool manager such as WL.
I would like to use WL's datasource. However, the problem is when I do CachedRowSet.setDataSourceName(jndiname)
with proper JNDI name, Sun's CachedRowset could not figure out what WLInitialContextFactory
is (it must have its own hard-coded context factory which I don't know what it is
therefore it can not create a connection from it). The exception thrown says "(JNDI)
Unable to connect".
Can anyone tell me how to make it work? (How to use setDataSourceName for CachedRowSet
for WL). The key is what ContextFactory to use.
Thanks in advance.
L.W.X.I am assuming there is some reverse proxy web server with OAM WebGate which is fronting the tomcat and JBoss servers. Also, assuming you are using FQDNs throughout.
Is the ObSSOCookie sent when you access the external applications after logging into portal? It should help to look through the HTTP headers. Also, it could be an issue with authentication levels/IP validation failure - these should show up in the WebGate logs.
