I bought one several months ago.  it sits beside my macbook pro.  my macbook pro logs onto itunes successfull, but the appletv will not.  when i enter my user name and password, it simply times out?

while my macbook pro will log on successfully to itunes, the appletv times out every single time and i cannot log on.

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

  • Does Firefox have a feature like the software named Robo-form, where like if you wanted to go to your gmail, you could click on one thing, and not have to inter user name and password every single time?

    Some times in Firefox I see pop ups where Firefox is allowing you to make Firefox remember a password or some such thing like that.
    I want to go to an account or web site where I have already registered, type in my user name and password and then before I log in, have Firefox remember my log in information, so that in the future I could go to a folder let's say, that has a list, and just click on the one item, spending less time logging in at places.
    Is this something Firefox does, or do I have to say, use a software like Robo-form?

  • Every time I go to verify my iphone ID, i get the link in my email, I enter my user id and password and then i get a screen that says "SORRY, this session has expired". I have resent the link several times, and tried, turned off my phone and still no luck

    Is the something wrong with the link to verify my iphone?

    The only thing that Im thinking could be the issue is that I just got the phone yesterday and it started to download is06 and didn't finish. I can't resume it where I'm at right now because there is no WI FI access so I will have to wait until I go home. Maybe because the software is updating it is causing it to time out? But then again why are you having the same problem! UGH frustrating!!

  • Time Capsule won't accept my user name and password for access - Help!

    Hi all,
    My Time Capsule seemed to stop working one day and I had to do a hard reset with the little button at the back. After that it worked and I restored my wireless network settings but now I can't access the Time Capsules hard drive with Time Machine.
    When I try to choose it as my Backup Disk in the Time Machine preferences it says "Enter your user name and password so Time Machine can access the file server "Our Time Capsule" (the name of my time capsule). However, every time I try to enter my password I get "Sorry, you entered an invalid username or password".
    I've already tried several resets of the Time Capsule and I've also tried logging on my computer as the Root user and changing my administrator account password back and forth but no go.
    Help! and Thanks.

    Norman & Harry,
    Consider the following:
    *_Time Capsule Keeps Asking Me For a Password_*
    It will be important to know what is going on, or what you are doing when it asks for the password. Is it asking for a password only when Time Machine attempts a backup? Consider this:
    It is NOT your username and password it wants when you try accessing the Time Capsule. (I know... it SAYS "username and password") But it means the Time Capsule's Name and Password.
    You will find that by launching Airport Utility.
    Select the TC on the left.
    Click "Manual Setup".
    Click the "Time Capsule" Tab.
    You will see "Time Capsule Name:" and "Time Capsule Password".
    Make sure “Remember password in keychain" is checked.
    That is the information you need to enter when it asks for "username & password."
    *I Don’t Remember What My Time Capsule Password Is*
    You can see what your current TC password is by going into Keychain.
    Open your Keychain and select "login" from the Keychains pane in the top left. Highlight "Passwords" in the Category pane from the lower left.
    Sort all the items by Kind. Note everything labeled "Airport...". How many do you have listed? There should only be one "Airport base station password" for each base station that you have active. Also, there should only be one "Airport network password" for each network you have created. If there are more than these, then delete all but the ones with the most recent Modification date.
    To see what passwords are being stored, double-click your Time Capsules' entry. A new window will appear.
    Put a check beside "Show Password". You may be asked for your own Admin password so enter that.
    Now the Password field will display the password you entered into Airport Utility for your Time Capsule
    *It Still Won’t Accept the TC Name and Password*
    Launch Airport Utility --> Manual Setup.
    Select "Disks" in the tool bar above.
    Click the "File Sharing" tab.
    Is "File Sharing" checked? It should be.
    What is selected beside "Secure Shared Disks"? If it says "With Accounts" or "With a Disk Password" then the system will ask you for a password every time it mounts the TC hard disk. If you switch it to "With Time Capsule Password" then use the password you designated earlier in the “Time Capsule" tab. It should only ask you once and then never again - because you had checked "Remember password in keychain".
    If you have made any changes then click "Update".
    Let us know if this resolves your issue.
    Cheers!

  • I'm on a web site that requires a user name and password to enter the site., but Firefox has never asked me if I want to save this info. Is it possible to do this even though Firefox never asked me?

    This is the only site that Firefox has not asked me to save user name and password.

    The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.
    You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.

  • Firefox will not save my user name and password for one of my sites. How can I fix this problem. It is getting annoying having to reenter every time I check this site. Is there a solution.

    I had my user name and password saved for my library site. My grandson hit something and now the saved user name and password are gone. It asks me every time to enter it and it is getting annoying. How do I fix this. I want Firefox to remember these codes.

    You can create a bookmark with the JavaScript code via a right-click on the "Remember Password" link on the squarefree.com website and choose "Bookmark This Link" and select the "Bookmarks Toolbar" as the destination folder for easy access.
    * https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password
    You need to use the "Remember Password" bookmarklet before or after filling the name and password field on the website with the <u>login form</u>, but before submitting the login form by clicking a button on the web page.
    If the site is using autocomplete="off" then you see a number not equal to 0 (i.e. attributes were removed) in the pop-up alert from the bookmarklet and Firefox should offer to remember the name and password via a drop down dialog of the key icon that will appear on the location bar (Firefox 4+) or via an info bar at the top (Firefox 3).

  • I have changed the name and password for my Time Capsule and now the Time Machine will not connect

    Mac Book Pro
    1TB Time Capsule.
    Yesterday I changed the name and password on my time capsule and also the name and password of the wifi network as I was having problems with the speed of the internet when using Safari on any of my devices (1 Macbook pro, 1 macbook air, 27" iMac, iPhone and iPad) all other internet services were working fine (email etc.) This seems to have solved the problem.
    However, since then, my time machine back ups will not reconnect and there is no option for me to reconnect to the existing back up for my macbook pro.
    When I enter the time machine preferences it shows as below that there are no back ups.
    Then, when I go to select a drive to use which should be the MacBook under the Backup disks the only option is for me to Remove Disk...
    So, my question is, how do I reconnect to an existing Time Machine back up for my MacBook pro as I really do not want to erase and start all over again.
    Warning - In my naiveté, I did click on the MacBook in 'Available Disks' but I got the impression that it was about to start a whole new back up and not work with the existing one.
    (And does anybody have an inkling as to why there was a problem with Safari on all my devices? I downloaded Google Chrome and that worked fine).

    Simply reset the Time Machine.
    See A4 here http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    You can then mount the TC disk in finder after you reboot the computer.
    You should be able to reselect the TC disk and then it will say it is going to start a new backup.
    Ignore this.. when the TM actually loads the TC disk it will discover the existing backup and continue the backup.. but it will give no hint until it actually starts that it won't start a new backup. you just have to believe it won't.. and mostly it works..
    Please also install the widget A1 so you have some idea what TM is doing.

  • HT1386 How do I create one Apple ID and iTunes user name and password for all of my Apple products: iPad, iPhone, and iPod plus iTunes on my PC?

    How do I create one Apple ID and iTunes user name and password for all of my Apple products: iPad, iPhone, and iPod plus iTunes on my PC?

    Yes, I do have multiple devices and it appeared to me that every time I tried to sync or log onto iTunes, the password was incorrect.  Consequently, I was and am constantly changing it.  Wouldn't it be nice if Apple would simply say that you only need one Apple ID and one password regardless of the number of Apple devices you intend to sync via iTunes. 
    Barring the above, how about a way to merge all of the Apple IDs and passwords into one.

  • When a new site is created can a user name and password be generated for it automatically?

    I have a work request  from a manager that is asking, when a new site is created (via workflow), that a generic user name and password be created just for that site?
    If it is possible I would like for it to be created at the same time as the site be being created or do I need to wait until after the site is created and then trigger a workflow to create the generic  user  account?
    this account is only needed to do one thing.. upload documents to a folder.
    of course there can be multiple  sites being built at one time and would like for this to be auto generated....  and possible be in a  hidden list so I can include the info in a workflow email letting the receiver of the email know that
    they need to use this specific user name and password just for this site.

    Hi SPSAdminTC,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to create sites and grant users permissions on the sites via workflow in SharePoint 2013.
    Users are stored in AD, before you grant site permissions to them, the name and password have existed in AD users and groups. So, you need to add the users into AD before you grant permissions to them.
    In SharePoint 2013 Designer, you can use REST API to create site and assign permissions to users. You can use Send Email action to send email to users and customize the body of the email.
    More information, please take a look at:

    Hello there, Ark.
    It sounds like the iPhone has Activation Lock still activated. The following Knowledge Base article provides the methods available for removing the previous owner's account:

  • HT204053 I did not know my kids had set up an Itunes account for me with one user name and password.  then i got an i phone and set it up with a different email address and new password.  how can i get my accounts to merge so i can have all of my music on

    Quote: "You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details." See also Apple ID & iCloud FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    You can set up your iCloud account on your iOS device under: "Settings > iCloud" and a other account for store purchases under "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Unfortunately merging accounts is not possible but you could transfer all of your music manually via iTunes from your Mac or PC.

  • I use a program called RoboForm2Go that will fill in user names and passwords for me when I open a site and now that option is not available in the taskbar at the top. How can I use that feature again?

    I save the RoboForm2Go program on a flash drive and when I opened a site that I had saved the user name and password, the RoboForm2Go would show up in the taskbar with the site I opened so I could just click on it and it would automatically fill in the info for me.

    Under View>/toolbars, I don't have an option to choose RoboForm Toolbar. When I initially set up the program, I was using Internet Explorer and I can go to the taskbar at the bottom and choose RoboForm but then whatever site I was opening in Firefox will now open in Internet Explorer instead of Firefox. The old version of Firefox would display the RoboForm toolbar at the top.
