I bought an IR receiver and an Apple Remote, and I can't get it to work. What am I doing wrong? The receiver is a Lenovo eHome OVU430006/01 USB IR Receiver.
Hello,
You would need to pair the Apple Remote with the receiver. So I would use the generic Mac/PC receiver and follow these instructions:

If that doesn't work then check in System Profiler to see if the IR receiver has been recognized by the PowerBook's hardware. You may require the install of drivers for this device to be recognized.
Best of luck

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are referring to adding a secondary account, to a single device, then you can do this at system preferences >mail, contacts & calendars. -

Try This...

Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...

I have had my Apple TV for 3 days now and the movie I wanted to rent still hasn't loaded. What am I doing wrong? The movie is only 1hr 33min but says it'll take over 4hrs to load.
AppleTV rentals are fixed size, and don't degrade quality if the connection is slow.
Minimum suggested requirements for 'instant' streaming are:
SD 2.5Mbps
720p HD 6 Mbps
1080pHD 8 Mbps
Any slower for the content quality selected (Settings iTunes store) and AppleTV has to partially download the movie in order to play through without rebuffering, and that can take anything from minutes to hours depending on internet speed and actual 'file size'.
The problem you see is usually related to slow intermet (very slow LAN connection from your router is rarely an issue but could be if AppleTV is not getting good signal).
On a computer use speedtest.net to test your internet speed.
When I has a 1 Mbs it would take 8-10 hours to download an SD title.
With 4.5 Mbps it take 15-30 minutes to play 720p movies, longer for 1080p.
A big flaw with AppleTV for those with slow connections is the limited hardware and memory - if you get bored waiting for the movie to start and use AppleTV say for YouTube. streaming from your computer iTunes or merely browsing the store trailers this can be enough to delete the portion of a rental already downloaded forcing it to restart each time you use it for something else.
If you turn out to have slow internet an alternative is to rent in iTunes on your computer, then once fully downloaded you can play on AppleTV under Computer>your iTunes>Rentals (only appears when a rental is on the computer ready to play). Alternatively lower rental quality settings from 1080p>720p>SD in future if you need faster starts.
I have also seen issues recently on some of my units where it starts downloading well, but for some reason freezes and refuses to fetch the rest unless I play from the start - this is usually after I've played and paused a rental a few minutes in and I've confirmed it just stops fetching more data sporadically - it never used to do this.

I'm trying to sync a 4s so that it can be activated w ATT...my computer says that I need to have 11.1 or higher in order to do that but when I download from the itunes site nothing happens and I still can't sync phone...what am I doing wrong?
The screen that says "Download Now" also shows the proposed iTunes version number (in the box below):
Be sure it indicates 11.1.3.
If it is, here's further troubleshooting:

I am try to burn a iPhoto slideshow on to a dvd in iDVD, when I click burn I get error message and dvd is ejected. I have burned dvd's before. What am I doing wrong?
error message I don't have SuperDrive and dvd is ejected
If you don't have a SuperDrive you will not be able to burn DVDs.
Did iDVD come preinstalled on your Mac? If it did then you should have a SuperDrive and be able to burn DVDS. Check the Disk Burning section of System Information
to see what you can read and write with your optical drive:

That being cleared up, a respectful request:

I have a late 2008 MacBook I cant get to send sound to my TV when I try to watch movies. I have bought the HDMI cable and audio connectors but still no sound. What am I doing wrong?
Hi Maryan,
Open System Preferences > Displays > select the window for you external monitor > click on the Arrangement tab and check the box next to Mirror Displays. It may be slightly different in Lion, but the idea is the same. -
Have entrourage and want to use Mail. Can't get it to work.
I had a macbook and purchased the Microsoft office for Mac which included Entrourage.
I have now purchased a new macbook Pro and want to begin to use Mail rather than Entrourage.
I have Entrourage on my new computer but i can't get it to transfer my information to the the Mail program
I am on Charter.net at my office and sbcglobal.net at home.
How can i get this to work. I can receive on Mail, but i can't send.check your outgoing port settings and make sure it's using a specific port and not the default port, also you might want to check to see if it is using SSL, TLS or any other encryption. Verify the setting from your old machine setup.
