Remote works on my iPhone 4, but not the new iPad2 I just got.  Both setup the same ios5.1.1 9B206.  remote 2.3 (379)

Remote sharing is on.  Verified my account and password are same.  When I launch remote I get the  "Turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer or on Apple TV using the account [email protected]"
If I go to settings, I see home sharing is on, and it says "Remote will autonatically find the iTunes libraries and Apple TV's that have Home Sharing turned on using the account [email protected]
Just to test connectivity, I clicked on "Add an iTunes Library to add a computer that is NOT using home sharing and it gives a code, and under devices on iTunes, you see "iPAd".  So iTunes recognizes the iPad.
But what it SHOULD do is automatically connect, because Home Sharing is on, and I've put in a valid ID and password on the iPad.
I can launch Remote on my iPhone 4, right next to it, using same ID, and it works fine
On both devices, ios is 5.1.1 (9B206)   Remote is 2.3 (379)
It sounds like an issue with the iPad2 itself
As I was typing this out, I got to thinking about any router changes I had made.
I remembered that recently I had changed my WLAN settings from WPA2 Personal and AES algorithm to Mixed WPA/WPA2 Personal and TKP & AES algorithm.  But this was before I setup the iPad2, so it may not have any bearing.  But because I was thinking about it.........
So even though WIFI seemed to be working OK for everything, I removed my automatic connection to my WIFI, and recreated the connection, and Remote came right up when I launched it.

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
All of your help is much appreciated, thanks

    Hi..............I have a new Creative Cloud registration and have bought the new Dreamweaver CC but I cannot seem to down load it? My Creative Cloud has downloaded but not my new Dreamweaver CC?  I currently have the old Dreamweaver CS4 on my system! Can anyone help?

    The first thing you need to do is download and install the Creative Cloud Desktop Application. Then, open that program and click on the Apps tab. You download and install creative cloud applications from there.
    If your computer doesn't meet the minimum requirements to run a given program, it won't show up under the Apps tab.
    Once they are installed, you'll need to go to your Applications folder (Mac) or Program Files (x86) folder (PC) to start the program itself.

  • Xfdf and pdf works in Adobe Reader 6, but not with new versions 7, 8, X

    I have a xfdf file which is created by querying a SQL data base and contains data for a pdf form; it works with Adobe Reader 6, but does not work with new versions of Adobe Readers (7, 8, 9 and X).
    It is an intranet site running IIS 6.0 in Windows Server 2003 Web Edition SP2 with Adobe 6 installed and client systems include XPSP2, XPSP3, Vista, Windows 7 with different versions of IE, Firefox.
    With new versions of Adobe Reader, click on the hyperlink launched the pdf form in a browser window without data; below is the link:
            // create shipping slip hyperlink
            string strLtrSlipUrl = "~/Archive/LtrShipSlip.pdf#FDF=" + lblWO.Text + "LtrShipSlip" + ".xfdf";
            HyperLink hlLtrShipPdf = new HyperLink();
            hlLtrShipPdf.Text = "Ltr Shipping Slip";
            hlLtrShipPdf.NavigateUrl = strLtrSlipUrl;
            hlLtrShipPdf.Target = "_blank";
            pnlLtrShipSlip.Controls.Add(hlLtrShipPdf);
    I have installed new versions of Adobe Reader in the Web server (to match what the clients are using), but results are the same – blank pdf.
    I uninstalled the new versions and installed version 6 and the pdf and xfdf worked happily together, but we need new versions of Adobe Reader in the client computers.
    Thanks for helps and suggestions – I have read articles about using iTextSharp to create pdf documents from .NET apps, but that would be my last choice.

    Adobe Reader 9 can't save the old FDA forms. FDA must update their forms.

  • ITunes WiFi Sync works fine for 4 devices, but not for my iPad2

    I'm using the latest version of iTunes (11.0.4)  on an iMac with the latest version of Mountain Lion (10.8.4) and multiple iOS devices listed below:
    iPad 1 (iOS 5.1.1)
    New iPad (iOS 6.1.3)
    iPhone 4S (iOS 6.1.3)
    iPhone 4S (iOS 6.1.3)
    iPad 2 (iOS 6.1.3)
    iTunes WiFi Sync works fine for all the devices but the iPad 2. They all show up in the "Devices" area of iTunes (though sometimes I need to power them down and restart them to get them to show up properly) and they all sync automatically when plugged into a power source.
    The iPad 2, however, behaves thusly:
    - Shows up under "Devices" in iTunes
    - Can be synced wirelessly IF initiated from the computer
    - Does NOT automatically sync when plugged in to a power source
    - CanNOT be synced wirelessly from the iPad itself, as under settings > general > itunes wifi sync, it shows the screen that says "to enable wifi syncing with itunes, connect to ituens on your computer using a cable..." as if I have this feature turned off in iTunes (which I do not). The "Sync Now" button is not displayed (not even a grayed out version).
    What I've tried:
    - Repeatedly powering down and restarting iTunes, the computer, the iPad, and the router in various orders and combinations
    - Repeatedly turning off and on the wifi sync feature via iTunes
    - Experimenting with the "Open iTunes when this iPad is connected" option as this actually fixed a similar issue on my iPad 1
    - Actually restoring the iPad to factory settings, then restoring from backup in case there was an issue with the iOS install
    Nothing has helped
    What I'm sure it's not:
    - A problem with the usual iTunes settings (check "enable WiFi sync", uncheck "prevent iPads from syncing", etc.). Since all other devices work and I actually can perform a wireless sync when initiated from iTunes, I don't see how the issue could live here at all.
    Any ideas? I'm pretty stumped!

    Another oddity: When this iPad syncs, it does NOT create a backup as part of the process (whether wired or wireless). All my other devices do, as one would expect...

  • When I FaceTime my wife from iPad her iPhone rings but not our Mac book pro. They both used to ring. Mac book pro FaceTime doesn't seem to be able to send or receive FT calls

    When calling from the Mac book pro it shows up on my iPad and will say connecting but never connects. On the Mac book it just keeps ringing

    I can't believe it!!  But this answers my question.  I pair up quickly between my iphone5 and iMac, but cannot transfer pics from my iphone to the iMac over Bluetooth as I expeceted I would easily be able to do.  After all, I did this with my old Mac and a simple Motorola cell phone years ago.
    So, the answer is that file transfer from iphone5 is not supported.  Really!!
    Not sure why capabilites have regressed, this is disappointing, but thanks for the answer, at least I know to stop beating my head against the wall searching for some hidden box to check.  This seemed like such an obvious capability between Apple devices I couldn't understand why I was having such difficulty.  It seemed like it would be seamless, but it can't be done.  Baffling.

  • Siri would be able to tell me what planes are above me on my iPhone 5s, but not my new iPhone 6 plus

    I live in Atlanta and use to love to be able to ask Siri what planes are above me right now and it would show the flights numbers and how high they are. That was on my iPhone 5s. I have had my iPhone 6 Plus for two weeks now and thought oh I haven't tried it with the new phone. So when I asked Siri to show me the planes above me right now, she does a web search! Displays articles on how Siri can show me the plans above me. I have tried to rephrase the question many ways and it still doesn't work. Anyone else have this issue and is there a fix?

    Hi! I know how to help. Siri won't tell me what planes are above when I say "what planes are above me" or "Flights above". So what you have to do is you have to ask her "what commercial planes are above" I have a iPhone 5s and she wont tell me when I say "what planes are above" so I had to ask her "what commercial planes are above" hope this helps you!

  • IPhone Detected But Not Identified?

    I hooked up my iPhone to my base that goes into my cpu and I got this message: "An iPhones was detected, but could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the iPhone and try again." I havent had any problems like this before. Will a reinstall over this iTunes fix the problem? I am running Windows XP. I have also noticed that when I plug up my phone, the Scanner and Camera Wizard pops up recognizing the iPhone as a camera. Also when running iTunes after I got that message, my cpu will freeze for about 5 seconds and work fine a little while then freeze again for 5 seconds. But when I close iTunes, it stops freezing.

    I am having the same issue iPhone detected, but not identified. Did you get a solution to the problem? Had to go to th Apple store to register my phone. iPhone connected fine with their MacBook. That doesn't help me at home though.

  • Old  Macbook connects to corporate ethernet --- but not my new Macbook Pro

    I've now tried nearly everything to solve this problem: My old white plastic Macbook connects to the corporate LAN --- but not my new mid-2009 Macbook Pro.
    All the settings are the same. I have on occasion managed to connect the new Macbook Pro to the network but only for a short time.
    Our IT folks have checked the cable, the ports,routers etc and everything is just fine.
    I am able to connect to the network from other ports in the office --- but not from my office (except with the old white plastic Macbook).
    Please, can someone help?

    If you can connect when using other ports in your office the problem is almost a certainty that the issue is with the port you can't connect with. Did your IT guy switch ports at the switch side to one that is known to work? We can't troubleshoot your LAN and it sounds like your computer is set up correctly if it connects using other ports.

  • My iCloud password is working on iPhone 5s but not working on iPhone 6 anybody help

    My iCloud password is working on iPhone 5s but not working on iPhone 6 anybody help

    Tony,
    My first thought is to make sure that you are actually logged in using the same AppleID on both devices.  Many folks share one AppleID for their family's iTunes Store account yet use another personal AppleID to log into iMessage settings and iCloud settings.
    To confirm that the AppleID and password you are using is correct I would suggest visiting http://icloud.com and attempting to login there.  If you get in, then you know for sure that that is a valid AppleID/password pair.
    If that still doesn't reveal the issue then I would try opening Notes app on both iPhones, and then typing your password out where it can be seen clearly.  This may reveal if your are typing it differently due to iOS 8 changes in the shift key indicator, or possibly that a screen protector or case is causing your touches to not register the same on both devices.
    I hope these suggestions help.
