HT5462 Not sure whether I even have ARD - Should I apply the patch?
This is a very novice question so apologies in advance. Apple software update has been advising me to apply an update for this for some time, but I am not sure what this is. I don't think I ever used Apple Remote Desktop to need applying an update, and I am concerned that by updating this, it will activate a functionality which I never consciously used.
Rather than to heed the "don't argue, just update everything Apple tells you to" approach, I thought to ask for an advice before proceeding. I am afraid I am a novice user of OS/X and therefore my usage is fairly primitive. I do not access my Mac remotely nor wish for anyone else to start accessing it remotely.
Any advice would be appreciated.
The Client component is installed in all OS X istallations (Similar to screen sharing) - if you don't have ARD anywhere you can ignore, athough if you ever use screen sharing I would be tempted to install anyway.
Regards,
Shawn

Did you try to log in icloud.com/find on your computer and see if you can locate your phone?

My screen freezes after a few seconds on my iphone 5c and the display fades slightly so you can see faint lines in the background. I'm not sure whether this is easily fixable or a major problem. Have reset the device, but this has worked. Any ideas?
To make sure that this is not software related, set it up as new device, explained in this article:

One of my friend purchased Apple Iphone 3GS an year back. But due to various reasons, he did not use the phone. But when he recently tried using it, Its unable to detect the cellular network.
I see that the product warranty period is over and now not sure whether it can be resolved? If it can be, guess, it would cost me more. Is there any help someone can provide me in this issue to have it resolved?Is the phone activated? Tell your friend to contact the cell provider.

I recently changed my password on my iPod and I entered it wrong. I can't acces my iPod as it disables and says to connect to iTunes. But I'm not sure whether to or not to restore my iPod Touch to it's original setings. What does this do? Will my iTunes library be effected? I would really appreciate it if you helped me!
If you can't remember the Passcode, you need to restore the device from the computer it was last synced with.
Follow the instructions for putting the device in recovery mode > iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
That restores the iPod to factory settings.
Will my iTunes library be effected?
It will be deleted from the iPod touch.
If you are a resident of the U.S. have iTunes 10.3 or later, iOS 4.3.3, you re download iTunes purchases for free.

My Macbook air flash had gone for a month and I saw Apple's Macbook air flash storage drive replacement program. I'm not sure whether that program is still available for the broken device or not. Now, I'm booting from the external hard drive. Warranty has gone in October 2013..
I want to send back my macbook air back to apple store. The problem is that I bought it from US and now, I'm using it in Myanmar. If the program is free of charge for my device, it's worth trying to send back to US. Since mine is broken, I'm afraid Apple will take charges for reparing.
So, if anyone having the same problem as me, I would like to get suggestion....
Thank you!!I have no idea about how to handle the international aspect of your question.
But here is the Apple writeup about the problem and the remedy. Maybe that will help you.

I have an old gift card from 2 yrs ago, I am wanting to give as a gift, but not sure if it's expired. Can I check the balance w/o putting it on my account?
It shouldn't expire - none of my cards have ever had an expiry date on them.
If the card doesn't have its value written on it then the only way to see its value is to redeem it onto an account. -

HT4914 Can I use iTunes match if I am not sure whether there are any pirated songs in my library
Can I use iTunes match if I am not sure whether there are any pirated songs in my library
iTunes match should work for that. I am assuming your friend gave you some music from a flash drive, and yor not sure if he/sh pirided it or not, and this is understandible. this screen shot should help. I also sugest looking into google play, which is not as convienet as far as combining with iTunes, but is free I bleive.

And maybe you don't talk to too many people but I've been on many forums on different websites where people have had similar problems and a lot of people in the store were having battery problems where they were draining too fast. What I learned is that all the people who did not download the updates are good. There phone is working the same. The people who have, they're having battery problems
I have downloaded every update and my battery life is better than any previous iPhone I have ever owned. I see posts from hundreds of people every day, and this is not a commonly reported problem. While there are a few random reports of battery problems, it is no more than I have seen for any other model or any other version of iOS in almost 8 years. Usually problems of rapid battery drain can be traced to bad apps (FaceBook is the worst offender) or corrupt data being synced from iCloud or other sources (gmail, Windows Live, Yahoo, etc).
The simple test is to restore the phone as New. Do not create any email accounts. Do not install any apps. Do not enable FaceTime or iMessage. Do not enable Twitter or any other social networking app. Use it for a day and check the battery usage. You will find that it is working well.
And also see this: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain. It is the best treatise I have seen on the subject of battery usage. -

how come? Documents also have on hand to buy as photo and check the box
So what? The second-hand shop you bought it from didn't follow the right procedures. You also didn't follow the right procedures to make sure that iPhone was not in Activation Lock. It's like buying a car for cash but not getting the title signed over to you. It's not your car if you don' have the title. And that's not legally your iPhone if the previous owner's Apple ID is still registered to the device for Find My iPhone/Activation Lock.
Only a proof of purchase from the ORIGINAL retail store would do any good at all. Return the device to where you bought it and demand your money back. If they refuse, either get a lawyer and/or turn in the device to local police. If you're in possession of stolen property, then the cops won't care about where you got it from. -
I can't hear on Facetime for Mac and other people can't hear me. I recently downloaded Boom and I'm not sure whether it's the problem or not.
Remove it according to the developer's instructions and see whether there's an improvement. Back up all data before making any changes.

Whether i will able to avail call facilities with my ipad(Cellular) by not jailbreaking it? If not now, whether apple has any future plans to implement the same?
An iPad is a tablet, not a phone, they do have plans, it's called an iPhone....
While it has celluar data this isn't hte same as a celluar line or ability to make phones, can you imagine how stupid you'd look with a tablet against your ear?
Skype, Google +, Facetime, all wonderful ways to have calls -
How do I delete a movie (not bought from iTunes) and have it actually deleted from the library as well, I keep deleting stuff from iTunes to try and free up some space only to find the file still in the library?
It depends upon what preferences settings you use. Most people use default settings so when you delete an item it asks you if you want to get rid of the file too.
If iTunes absolutely refuses to get rid of the file (I have never heard of this by the way) you can always go to the media folder or wherever the file is located and drag it to the trash yourself. -
Just upgraded my iPad to IOS5 and when the download was completed, a window said that there was an error and it could not restore. Now I have a black screen with the Apple logo and the circle lines. None of the buttons respond. Help, please!!
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. Maybe this will let the iPad reboot and then you may need to restore again but see if this helps to start the iPad first.
