HT3819 homesharing stops when computer sleeps. I already checked the "wake for access". What is wrong?

Homesharing stops when the computer sleeps. Already checked the " wake for access" and already changed the computer sleep to never.

I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

  • Itunes stops when computer sleeps

    Before updating both iTunes (v11) and Apple TV (v2) I could stream videos fine using Home Sharing when the computer was asleep. Now iTunes appears to lose its connection as soon as the iMac goes into sleep mode. I have to awaken the computer every time this happens, and sometimes I need to reconnect the Apple TV to Home Sharing for it to work again.
    Any suggestions?

    For the time, that is precisely what I'm doing. With previous versions I didn't have to remember to wake the computer to use Apple TV to watch videos or TV shows as the connection was always there. Now I do and its annoying.
    Other than this issue, iTunes 11 has been a major improvement.

  • TS2972 Apple tv sleeps when computer sleeps. What to do

    The TV disconnects from Apple TV sharing when computer sleeps. What to do?

    George, Your trouble sounds just like mine. You can read my thread here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4204561?start=0&tstart=0, but in summary:
    Itunes and the Apple TV exchange messages about once per minute. If any wifi interference stops the message-and-reply, iTunes closes the home sharing connection.  Other services are usually fine.
    I solved my problems by wiring the ATV and computer. (Wiring either alone didn't work.)  Home Sharing is now rock solid and works exactly as advertised. No drop-outs during play. The iTunes library is always available on ATV - I never have to restart home sharing or iTunes or the ATV. If a computer or ATV restarts, they pair up automatically.
    Not everyone can wire, I know. But it worked for me. Test it if you can.

  • Since I upgraded to Maverick when computer sleeps it will not wake up but must be restarted?  Also password to icloud is never saved?

    Since I upgraded to Maverick when computer sleeps it will not wake up but must be restarted?  Also password to icloud is never saved?

    I read someone said you can tap on "other" when selecting which wifi you connect to and then entering the exact wifi name of the network you wish to join and the password and then joining that network allowed the password to be saved.  Also with iOS 6 the minimum length of the password needs to be 8 characters.  Maybe you password on your router is less than 8 characters long

  • PPPoE Still Disconnects When Computer Sleeps

    With 10.9.2 and again with 10.9.3, PPPoE disconnects when computer sleeps.  This didn't happen with OS 8.x, OS 9.x, OS X 10.2, 10.8.x, 10.9.0, or 10.9.1.  System Preferences>Energy Saver is set for display and computer to sleep after about 12 minutes.  I'd rather not set computer to never sleep.  Please advise and correct for 10.9.4.  Thank you.

    I have the same issue. Also after wake-up connecting to PPPoE is a challenge, because it establishes only after 5-7 attemps (Authentication failed). I guess 10.9.3 update causes this.

    Hey Kirby17,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not getting any sound from the speaker, follow this article.
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

    The zooming function on the trackpad stopped working on my Mac Air OSX 10.9.3.  I've already checked the trackpad preferences to make sure I didn't inadvertently alter something.  It worked fine in the morning then when I woke my computer in the afternoon the zoom no longer worked.  I use this function constantly so I hope something is not broken.

    Where is zooming not working?

    Demo,
    I'm not sure how I'm supposed to do that the instruction says since i am not familiar with Apple at all what are quick links even? Am i supposed to do this on Itunes on my Ipad or on the computer?
    this was that reply you mentioned.
    I spoke with Apple Tech Support and they guided me through this.  I was trying to get the App Store working on a new iPad mini using a new, but existing Apple ID.  To get it to work, I had to go onto iTunes on my main computer (not on the iPad).  I had been trying to use the Sign In button, and I was having the issue of being "forced" to enter a credit card, which I did not want to do.  Here was the solution I was given, which worked for me.
    Log out of iTunes, if you are not already.  (Or hit Cancel if you're on the Review Payment screen.)
    Instead of going into Sign In, go to Redeem under the Quick Links, on the right-hand side, down a bit.
    Go through the screens, accepting the EULA, etc.  You will get to a Review Payment screen, similar to the one you saw before, but it will have a None button.
    You can enter an iTunes card here if you want, but I was able to leave that field blank and still successfully get the account set up, ready to use on the iPad.

    Carmen,
    If possible, deauthorize any computers you still have physical access to that you know you had previously authorized to play your iTunes purchases.  Otherwise, you can always use the Deauthorize All option described in this article.
