Iphone with tv questions

I just hooked up my Iphone 4 to an HDTV with the component cables. I'm having some problems.
Video with sound plays fine, but when I switch to an audio only source, the TV shuts off the audio because there is no video signal. If I put on a photo slideshow, the audio comes back on.
I know this is a problem with my TV (but I can't find a setting to fix it). Is there a way to get the iphone to output album artwork while playing audio?
Also, I got the universal dock with remote. The remote works for play/pause/ff/rew, but the menu button doesn't do anything. I can't find any documentation as to which features I should expect from the remote control.

    any info is helpful
    thanks

    While they are not supported by Apple (use at your own risk) there are likely third party apps that may help. You can do a forum or Google search.
    Itunes purchases can be transfered to the new machine - File>Transfer Purchases
    Apps can be re-downloaded for free - unlike music.
    Pics can be e-mailed to yourself.
    If you have at least one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer, you should get the option to merge the data.

  • How do i sync iphone with multiple macs? and few questions

    Hi
    I would appreciate if anyone would help me.
    1. I would like to know how to sync my iphone with different macs. I have a macbook 13 and a macbook 15 and would like to use BOTH to be able to transfer data without losing them. (address, apps, photos and music)
    would like to use this feature if I were to be suddenly on a trip and a friend would like to share some of his files (audio, apps, photos..etc)
    2. is it possible to use internet tethering on multiple macs or example a "spontanious" mac? (ex. if I were suddenly to use internet through usb on a friends mac while we were on a trip but it were programmed on my mac at home)
    3. my internet tethering is only working on one mac which I usually use to sync everything... i tried just using tethering through usb on the other mac wihtout any sync but somehow it didnt work... usually i just plug and play and start using firefox... by automatic detection...
    4. is there also a way to copy files from iphone onto a mac which would not be one of my libraries?
    5. why cant i use iphone like the ipod as a disk use?
    I am aware that these things are somewhat possible because i have read quiet a few artivles but they are sadly enough not so current... any help appreciated.

    #1: As has been said, you can't get around it. An iPhone cannot be synched to more than one computer for any media content (it can be for contacts and calendar information, I believe).
    #4: You can transfer items purchased from the iTunes Store to another computer but only if you disallow synchronization and authorize that computer to your iTunes Store account. There are third-party utilities that can transfer non-iTunes Store content.
    #5: there is no disk mode in an iPhone and no way to enable one, at least not in the sense of disk mode in earlier iPods. There are third-party apps that allow some file transfer to and from an iPhone.
    I can't help with tethering questions.

  • Syncing multiple iPhones with 1 iTunes account questions.

    Hello community.  Just had a few questions about my iphone and my wifes.  I have had an iphone for almost a year now and have had my login email address and password set up since the beginning.  I have the iphone 4.  My wife today received her iphone 4s in the mail.  I also currently have my iphone set up on the cloud to sync my contacts and calendar.  We also have an ipad 2 which is set up through the cloud and I am the only person who uses this for work purposes.  One of the main questions I have is how can I sync her iphone and mine using the same iTunes account on our Mac book we have and at the same time not have every purchase or app downloaded onto both phones?  I use a few apps for work which she doesn't want but if she was to sync with the cloud or itunes she doesn't want to constantly delete the app or un-select it from syncing to her phone.  Also we do enjoy playing some of the same games especially against each other but is ther a way for her to have her own seperate login for either downloading apps or a different login for getting into the game center?  Also since we share the same wi-fi network at home is there a way to make it so that when I get home or she gets home and had downloaded apps while away that they don't automatically get sent to each other's phones or the iPad which I use for work?  Sorry if I'm a little bit of everywhere with the questions but just trying to get this resolved the best we can.  Thank you for all your help!

    " how can I sync her iphone and mine using the same iTunes account on our Mac book we have and at the same time not have every purchase or app downloaded onto both phones"
    Each device will only sync what you select to sync.  If your wife does not want an app, then she should not select it to sync.
    " Also since we share the same wi-fi network at home is there a way to make it so that when I get home or she gets home and had downloaded apps while away that they don't automatically get sent to each other's phones or the iPad which I use for work?
    Again, if she does not select them to sync, then they will not sync.

  • I've lost my iphone with passcode lock and find my iphone lock on but the wifi n cellular data was turned off so no way i can trace it so the only question remains is will the person who finds it be able to unlock it and use it as his own ?

    i've lost my iphone with passcode lock and find my iphone lock on but the wifi n cellular data was turned off so no way i can trace it so the only question remains is will the person who finds it be able to unlock it and use it as his own ?
    is it possible to change imei number?
    i've tried for so many times n still the phone is offline so i've set it to offline mode with my message but it never shows the last location why?

    If the device is found, nobody can use it without knowing your Apple ID and password.
    The phone will only show it's location if it is connected to cellular network or Wi-Fi. If those options are switched off, you can't locate the phone.
    With iOS 7, Find My iPhone includes a new feature called Activation Lock, which is designed to prevent anyone else from using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch if you ever lose it. It starts working the moment you turn on Find My iPhone in iOS 7. With Activation Lock, your Apple ID and password will be required before anyone can:
    Turn off Find My iPhone on your device
    Erase your device
    Reactivate and use your device
    This can help you keep your device secure, even if it is in the wrong hands, and can improve your chances of recovering it. Even if you erase your device remotely, Activation Lock can continue to deter anyone from reactivating your device without your permission. All you need to do is keep Find My iPhone turned on, andremember your Apple ID and password.
    What steps should I take if I misplace my device?
    If you ever misplace your device—whether it’s just lost or you think it may have been stolen—you should put it into Lost Mode immediately using Find My iPhone.
    Lost Mode locks your screen with a four-digit passcode and lets you display a custom message with your phone number to help you get it back. You can also remotely erase your device if needed, and your custom message will continue to display even after the device is erased.
    While Activation Lock works in the background to make it more difficult for someone to use or sell your missing device, Lost Mode clearly indicates to anyone who finds your device that it still belongs to you and can’t be reactivated without your password.
    To put a device into Lost Mode, sign in to icloud.com/find from a Mac or PC or use the Find My iPhone iOS app.
    For more information, read what to do if your device is lost or stolen.

    Good afternoon! I addressed in the AT&T company with a question about untying of a sim card of AT&T from my iPhone, all of them made Iphone now is unlocked, I executed all points which were written:
    To complete the unlock, simply
    1 . Open iTunes on your Mac or PC and verify that you have Internet connectivity.
    2 . Ensure a SIM card is inserted into your iPhone.
    3 . Connect your iPhone using the dock connector to USB cable that came with your iPhone.
    4 . Backup and restore your iPhone using iTunes. For information on backup and restore, please visit http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.
    5 . After restoring, your iPhone will be unlocked.
    Additional information on unlocking can be found at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3198
    I made everything as well as was written, but on completion of the ios 6.1.3 installation the iPhone asks to be activated through wifi or through a wire to the computer.
    I connected Iphone to the computer and the text takes off: (Were sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time. Please TR again later, or contact customer care! )
    how to me to activate my iPhone?
    I hope for your help....

    Hey APPLELovestory,
    We have an article that goes over troubleshooting iPhone activation issues here:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3424
    Perform the following steps:
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to Wi-Fi if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.
    Hope that helps,
    David

    Hello, I live in the Netherlands and my friend is going to bring me a MAC and an Iphone. I was just wondering is there international warranty? Other question is that can I use Iphone with any simcard that I want? Thanks in advance!

    There is an international warranty on the Mac, but not on the iPhone...iPhone warranties are tied to the country of purchase.  Iphone 5s are currently only available in the US tied to a carrier, you cannot use another nano-sim card in them.

  • Ask your question.sync your iphone with home computer

    how do sync iphone with an other computer?

    when you turn off automatic sync in itunes, than you are able to sync your device with more than one computer (i sync my devices at home with a windows and at work with a mac)
    difference is that you cant sync everything, cause like roaminggnome said, itunes will delete your iphone with the information/data which is in itunes, e.g. music, vids etc.
    but you are able to trasnfer some data to your new/other computer to have it there too

  • Questions about iphone with/out the SIM card

    Someone is selling me his iPhone and I might or might not use it as a phone.
    If I don't put my At&t SIM card in can I still use Safari (over Wifi) and the ipod function?
    If I do put the SIM card in can I use all the functions of the iphone without a data plan?

    If you purchase a used iPhone and take the iPhone with you to an at&t corporate store, more than likely at&t won't charge you for a new SIM card to activate the iPhone with at&t.
    When activating an iPhone with at&t, as a new subscriber or as an existing subscriber, selecting the unlimited data plan for the iPhone, which includes 200 SMS, is required at that time. If you are an existing at&t subscriber, this replaces any existing data plan and SMS plan you currently have and are using with an existing phone with at&t.
    Some have reported that were able to cancel the unlimited data plan after the activation process, but this will eliminate visual voicemail - which are downloaded to the iPhone via at&t's data network only, and if downloaded anyway without the data plan, you will be charged by the KB for each messages downloaded to the iPhone. The same when accessing the internet other than when connected via wi-fi with the iPhone. If you access the internet via at&t's data or EDGE network without the unlimited data plan, you will be charged by the KB for all data downloaded and uploaded - when checking email, web browsing with Safari, Maps access, youtube, etc., etc.
    You say you won't use the unlimited data plan, but you will likely want or need to use it more often than you realize. If you don't want the unlimited data plan, you may want to consider purchasing an iPod Touch instead.

  • How do I use an iPhone with an iMac and a MacBook Pro?

    I have an iMac, a MacBook Pro and an iPhone 4S. I will be travelling and would like to sync my iPhone with the iMac or MacBook, depending on where I am.  I am on the cloud and manage my music manually. I'd like to be able to sync and download app updates via iTunes. Currently I sync via the iMac, will I lose my music if I attempt to sync the iPhone with the MacBook?
    Thanks (and, yes, I know there is an obvious answer somewhere but I can't find it)

    I was afraid of that. That's why I posted the question before trying to sync and losing everything. Too bad as I just bought a MacBook Pro and would really like to have mirrored devices across the board. Either Appke's technology isn't up to it or they have some obscure secrecy reason to prevent it.

  • I activated my ipad, used iCloud & Find my iphone with Apple ID named: A@.... But now I've changed address of Apple ID from A@... to the new one: B@... Which Apple ID will be asked to re-activate 7.0.4 ipad - A or B?

    Hello everybody!
    I'm using ipad mini and the iOS is 7.0.4. I used an Apple ID (called: A), and I activated my ipad, used iCloud & Find my iphone with this A account. But now I've changed address of Apple ID from A@.... to the new one: B@.... (just changed email address of Apple ID, not create a new ID), and then I signed out iCloud, old Apple ID, etc... on my ipad and signed in with new id B@.... Everythings seem OK, I can sign in/out iCould, turn on/turn off Find my iphone as well with the new one (B@...)
    But I still have a question (and still confusing with it): What will happend when I restored my ipad? I mean my iOS is 7, so which Apple ID will be asked to re-activate my ipad after I restore it, old id A@.... (this one cannot be used now) or the new one B@...., please?
    Thank you very much for your helpful informations!

    If you've succesfully changed the ID for iCloud and Find my phone, it will be your new ID you use if you need to restore it.

  • How do you sync an iPhone with a new computer?

    I know this question has been posted on this forum countless times, but none of the responses seemed to help me. I need a simple and clear answer on how to sync my iPhone to a new computer. I used to sync my iPhone with a Mac, but I got a new laptop running Windows 8 and I want to sync my iPhone with this new laptop. All the responses on this site tell me to download some sort of software to extract the data from my iPhone, but none of them seem to be free. My old Mac is still intact, so I can still use it if I need to. All of this is really confusing. Sorry if I'm being really ignorant about all of this, I just really need some help.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    a manual backup should help to transfer your data and apps.
    Disable autosync in itunes, connect your phone, right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing and save data, pictures taken with the phone and settings to the new itunes library.
    See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    After that, transfer your purchases the same way by choosing "transfer purchases", to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your phone got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored again from the manual backup you made before.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
    Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Apps can be downloaded again for free, in case you missed some: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
