I cannot locate my computers on the apple tv

I cannot locate my ipad on the apple tv. I want to display my ipad home screen

You can't 'find' the iPad or other devices as such.
To do this you need to enable Airplay mirroring on the iPad = press Home button twicw and swipe to leftmost screen, under Airplay there should be an option to enable and turn mirroring on.

Is it possible to retrieve a registration key for a hard copy of iWork 06? Moved and cannot locate disc, and replaced the computer it was originally installed on. When I transferred the program to new Macbook, the reg key apparently didn't transfer.

Is it possible to retrieve a registration key for a hard copy of iWork 06? Moved and cannot locate disc, and replaced the computer it was originally installed on. When I transferred the iWork from original Macbook Pro to new Macbook Pro, the reg key apparently didn't transfer. Any ideas?

Do you still have access to the old MacBook Pro? If so, you can transfer the license by copying the com.apple.iwork.plist from Macintosh HD > Library > Preferences to the same location on the new Mac. Note that this IS the main HD Library, not your user library. I have found that these files are not moved during setup or migration.
Are you really running Tiger 10.4.7? If so, you should update to 10.4.11. You can find the updater here. You also might consider buying the retail disk of iWork '09 from a third-party such as Amazon.com or eBay. It will add a lot of features for you. iWork '09 does require Tiger 10.4.11 at a minimum.

HT1349 I phone model MC922LL/A I cannot get connected it to the apple store to download a free app

I have changed my password 3 or 4 times in the last hour. I still cannot get into the apple store to download a new free app. What is my problem?

Hello, Dalagood.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would need more information regarding the exact issues you are experiencing when attempting to sign into the App Store to better assist you. However, I would include a basic troubleshooting guide for issues connecting to the iTunes Store.
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General >Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General> Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check theuser guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

VMWare Fusion - Cannot see other computers in the Workgroup

For some reason I'm unable to see or access other machines in my Windows Workgroup from within Fusion 1.1.3. Alternatively, I cannot see or access the VM from other WinXP machines in my workgroup. The other WinXP machines in my workgroup CAN at least ping the VM. I cannot ping anything outside of the VM other than OS X and my gateway/router. And yes, I've tried disabling the firewall on both the VM and other Windows machines in my Workgroupto no avail.
I am currently using a Bridged network configuration in Fusion. If I open an explorer window in the VM and type in the UNC path to OS X I can access it, but not other Windows machines on my network... why?
Perhaps someone can at least confirm whether they can access/see other computers in their Workgroup from Fusion?
Maybe this simply isn't possible under Fusion and I'm just going around in circles here...
Thanks

How did you resolve this? I am about ready to toss my month-old macbook out the window over this.

IMac running 10.7.5 and have 2 question marks from old PPC apps, which I cannot locate to remove from the system? Any suggestions please?

iMac running 10.7.5 and have 2 question marks from old PPC apps, which I cannot locate any links to remove from the system? Any suggestions please?

Hello, if those Question marks are in the Dock, it means OSX can't find them either.
Right click on the Q mark & choose Remove from Dock, might be Roght click or click, then Options>Remove from dock on later OSX versions.
Sometimes you can just drag it of the Dock, or CMD +drag it off.

Cannot connect two computers to the same game server HELP!

I have a Linksys WRT54G Router. I have two computers and I want to be able to use them on the same gaming server. Unfortunately, the game only have one port, so I can only port forward one of my computers. How can I configure my router to have two external IP addresses to the server so it won't kick one of my computers out. Thanks!

Hi,
I am in a gaming community and many members have a Linksys at home (but I don't know which kind exactly). Many of us try to connect two computers to the same server (many have a family). It seems it is a common problem that no one can connect two computers to the same game server.
I have a BEFSR41 V3 Firmware version 1.04.8
I use fixed IP address and no connectivity problem on Internet.
I have win XP SP2 on both computer.
I am using a DSL modem
I can connect the two computers to two different game servers at same time, but not the same server. Default port for this game is the same for all servers I use. I tried with both port forwarding enabled (in that case one PCs can connect the other not) or not (in the second case, whenever the second PC connects, the first one lose his connection to the server, no mater the order I try to connect my PCs).
Now the weird thing is that one member in my community just decided to throw away his Linksys router and he bought another brand (which I won't name to remains politically correct). Now, without changing anything in his PCs or his connection type, he can now play with two PC on the same server.
I am seriously thinking doing the same move. Since more and more game are now using Internet (and servers that controls piracy, $$) and family want to play together, not being able to connect two PCs on the same game server makes Linksys in bad situation from marketing point of view.
For example, in my gaming communtity, we now all know that Linksys can't handle two PC on same server, but other brand can...
Thank you in advance for your help.

My G5 can't locate other computers on the network

It's weird it can find the internet and networked printers but NO other computers at all. Furthermore other computers on the network have no problem finding each other or this specific computer.
Any ideas?
There are both macs, windows, and a linux based NAS on this network.

It most certainly does explain why one wouldn't be able to see others, if it's not configured as part of a workgroup or the automounter isn't running, this single machine will not be able to mount on demand, those shares which are advertised on other hosts.
Macs are not complicated and as I see by your signon, you know something of a root account. I would think you'd feel right at home on a mac under it's covers I myself have been a real Unix sysadmin for 18 years and played on all types of enterprise hardware, believe me, Macs are easy to fiddle with. Most of the time, when someone can't see other machines using the network browser,it's because some tool disabled NFS. Check your /etc/hostconfig for the automounter line and also check in the /Library/StartupItems and make sure NFS gets hit when the box starts.
I know if I kill my automounter, all the network mounting stops.

Cannot register my iPod through the Apple website link

On the right side of the screen, under the AppleCare section, there is an option to register your product. I clicked on that, and I got a message saying that "the requested application is not available on this server". Is there another link?

Exactly the same thing happened to me today. I have tried using both Safari and now Firefox and am getting the same message.
Can someone help?
Thanks,

Apple TV 3 not seeing any computers on the homeshare but is connected to wifi

I've had this problem for a few weeks now.
I got an Apple TV 3 from my Dad and put it in my new house. Connected it to my Wifi no problems but the problem is that it won't connect to my homeshare - it can't see any of the computers in my house.
It's connected wirelessly, it works with Airplay, I've done all of the diagnostic tests. My homeshare is definitely on, my firewalls are off, the router ports are open, the router has been reset several times, iTunes is left open, the homeshare is set up correctly in terms of usernames etc. I'm just out of ideas on why it won't connect to the homeshare.
I even took it to an apple store - they connected it to their own homeshare no problems so the ATV itself is working properly.
Someone help!

Let's get the troubleshooting steps.
1. Make sure you have iTunes on your computer updated to latest 10.7 version. (applies to both - Mac and PC)
2. Make sure you have your Apple TV updated to latest software 5.1 (Apple TV 2nd and 3rd Generation)
3. Make sure that the computer (with iTunes running) is on the same LAN (Local Area Network) as the Apple TV.
4. Use the same Apple ID on both iTunes and Apple TV (Apple TV can work / switch between different Apple IDs but keep it simple for now)
If you still cannot see your computer from the Apple TV (Computers)
1. Reset your Apple TV
On your remote Hold down Menu and Down, until the Apple TV status light blinks rapidly
2. Make sure you have no antivirus or firewall on your computer that may be blocking access to your computer over LAN.
Let me know if you need detailed info on any of the steps above.

Why I cannot use search function in my apple store? I use Ipad 3 and it is the latest software

Why I cannot use search function in the apple store on my ipad?

Nobody here could possibly answer your question as presented. Have you tried any troubleshooting steps at all?
Quit the app store completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If that doesn't work ... A few more details from you might help you get your problem resolved.
