Welcome to the Apple Community.
Re-pair your library with iTunes.
Settings/computers, disconnect your library, then remove the Apple TV from iTunes prefs if necessary.
Then settings/computers/connect to iTunes.

TS3212 Having problems downloading. OS is LINEX and I'm not sure how to load itunes with it.

Agreed. No native linux support. The only ways you could run iTunes with a primary linux system would be to a) dual boot, b) virtualize Windows with VirtualBox, VMware, etc., or c) attempt to run iTunes in Wine (which doesn't usually work very well). Dual boot would give you the benefit of complete support and usage of hardware and software, but virtualizing is a bit more convenient, since you would not have to reboot your linux host.

I'm on a prepaid plan for the 4s, i want the hotspot option which isn't offered on the prepaid plan. heard the connection is too slow on the 4s only worth it on the 5 or 5s. would you agree? not sure how much the hotspot would increase my monthly bill...

To use the hotspot for any of those devices, I believe you have to switch to a postpaid account and plan. You can see the pricing for the available postpaid plans under the "Shop" area of the website.

Still not sure how to share files with my friend's Windows PC?

I went through all the help pages concerning this, but it doesn't seem to help any. On our house internet connection, both our computers use the same IP address. I tried connecting directly to his computer using ethernet cable, but his computer never showed up. Our workgroup name should be the same, his is WORKGROUP but I'm not sure how to officially make mine that. I went to Network in System Preferences and clicked on Advanced... then went to the WINS tab and it has workgroup in the workgroup box, does this mean my computer is using that workgroup name? I'm at a loss and would like to share files with my friend's computer.

Do you have a router?
If not then sharing files will not be easy.

I have two companies sending me indesign documents. One opens up and the dictionary is set to English. The other file opens at is in Hebrew, Not sure how to fix the Hebrew part and whether or not the fualt lies at my end or at the other end

I have two companies sending me indesign documents. One opens up and the dictionary is set to English. The other file opens at is in Hebrew, Not sure how to fix the Hebrew part and whether or not the fault lies at my end or at the other end

If only the language is Hebrew, you should correct it in the Paragraph and Character Styles.
But in such a case I would expect more problems.
If you are a creative cloud subscriber you should additionally install the InDesign version, English with Hebrew support:
Go to the preferences of you CC.app. It is found behind the Gear Symbols on the top right.
When the preferences open, go to the Apps section.
Change the App Language to English with Hebrew support.
Now you can install it. It will install on the very same place where your InDesign program is found some additional plugins, which will give you access to Hebrew functionality, like RTL text. Otherwise you will inherit in the document (and where you copy and paste it from such a document into another one). But now you can change or repair problems.
Now repeatstep 1 + 2, but you need not to install your own language again. InDesign will now, when started, run in the language of your OS (when you have it installed in that language) but with more functionality to handle problems with Hebrew documents.
The same steps you would have to do with Arabic or Asian documents. These languages will also add more plugins. But keep it limitted to those language you need. I have installed it that way, because I get sometime documen where the text flows the wrong direction or the numbers come up in Farsi digit, not in Arabic digits. For such purposes I need versions in languages I don’t understand myself.

I am having trouble installing photoshop Lightroom. I have the S/N #... I need it to be confirmed and activated so i can receive an email to activate the system to my computer. I am not sure how to go about doing so.

I am having trouble installing photoshop Lightroom. The program is installed and has some sections blocked off. I have the S/N #... I need it to be confirmed and activated so i can receive an email to activate the system to my computer. I am not sure how to go about doing so.

If you have a serial number, you simply need to enter it into the proper fields.
Since you don't say what version of Lightroom, and what sections are "blocked off", let me guess that you have Lightroom CC, and you need to enter the serial number to turn it into Lightroom 6. Here are the instructions: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Help | Serialize Lightroom CC trial to activate as Lightroom 6
And if that's not the right assumption, then please give us the details.

Why does the email feature on my G'z One keep stopping when I try to email a photo from my phone?

When I try to email a photo from my G'zOne lately, I get a message saying my email has stopped. Any ideas?

I'm sad to see you're having email issues, rernst1252! Please allow me to assist. First, I'll need to have some details about your email service. Are you able to send email without attachments? Have you tested emails with a different kind of attachment (such as a Notepad or Word document)? If so, how did it go? Any problems sending emails through the same account using a regular computer? Have you contacted your email provider to see if there are any attachment restrictions?

Not sure how to configure Weblogic with log4j.xml

I tried something VERY similar to this. I wasn't sure where to put this code below. I figured in a Servlet environment, it should probably go in a Listener. I found an existing class inside of Spring that does exactly that: org.springframework.web.util.Log4jConfigListener
I put my log4j configuration file into an entry in the classpath and configured web.xml as follows:

        <context-param>
            <param-name>log4jConfigLocation</param-name>
            <param-value>classpath:gov/pa/dep/formu/resources/log4j.properties</param-value>
        </context-param>
        <context-param>
            <param-name>log4jRefreshInterval</param-name>
            <param-value>30000</param-value>
        </context-param>
        
     <listener>
          <listener-class>org.springframework.web.util.Log4jConfigListener</listener-class>
     </listener>The server admin placed the actual log4j.properties file into an AppFileOverrides folder instead of under WEB-INF\classes. I don't know if this caused the problem or not. Since I also was using the DailyRollingFileAppender and running into problems LOSING my log entries each day because he file didn't get renamed, I followed Metalink BUG# 8459807, and used the datedFileAppender available at http://minaret.biz/tips/datedFileAppender.html.
When the application started, the server log showed that log4j was being configured but none of my logging statements were going into the logs. It wasn't until the server admin placed a copy of log4j.properties (a different log4j.properties with a rolling file appender) that the log statements started going into the file that was configured based on web.xml.
Surely, things can't be this difficult with log4j, and commons logging under WebLogic.
All I want is APPLICATION LEVEL LOGS that are specific to the day.
Can someone else elaborate on how they got this working?
thanks a bunch,
Eric

Hi,
The configuration wizard (config.sh) lets you create a WebLogic Domain, however and depending on others "Oracle Middleware" products installed on the same "Oracle Home" (directory where weblogic has been installed) the configuration wizard allows you create the new weblogic domain to support the others middleware products such as WebCenter.
When I say support It means that Configuration Wizard allows you to create the weblogic resources like JDBC connections, JMS services, and deploys all applications that integrates another product such as WebCenter.
I suggest create your domain with support for WebCenter and then from Admin Console create the JDBC resource to connect to other database such as JD Edwards database.
I hope this help.

I have been having problems with e-mails coming through to my 3g iphone recently, my e-mail provider recommended diabling the SSL as a default option but im not sure where to find this on the phone can anyone help?told

Please can you advise how to disable the SSL on my iphone, i am not sure where the setting is.
Thanks
Tania

Go to Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Tap the name of the email account. If you don't see a bar labeled "Advance" near the bottom, Tap Account. Tap Advanced. Under Incoming Settings, there should be an option to Use SSL. If it is ON, tap it to turn it off.

Not sure how to produce alerts with KPI's

Hi experts,
I'm trying to reflect RUEI alerts to EM Incident Manager but failed.
Now I have:
enabled RUEI reporter to access EM database
defined KPI (or used default KPI's)
defined alert schedule
I think maybe it's because the KPI or the alert schedule is not properly defined.
So I'd like to ask if there is a sample or what to show how to define KPI and link alerts to KPI.

Refer the following docs to setup notification and monitor KPI's/SLA reporting from RUEI.
Configuration Assistant: Enterprise Manager 12c Cloud Control Incident Management Rules and Notifications Methods (Search Helper) (Doc ID 1541634.2)
Monitoring KPI and SLA Alert Reporting:
