Screensaver in Apple DVD Player - what does this mean?
Hello,
I am building a dvd based kiosk using a MacPro and Apple DVD player running to a large plasma monitor. The setup works great except for the fact that when the kiosk is not being used, the menu screen will cause a burn-in on the monitor (this monitor does not offer display tracking, anti-burn technology). It appears that in DVD Player version 4.6.5., Apple has taken this into account and offered a preference under "Full Screen" to "Allow Screensaver on DVD menu in kiosk mode" - this sounds like what I need. However when I select this option, and kiosk mode, the screensaver never starts. I have played around with all of the settings in the DVD player and screensaver, but nothing works. - thanks you in advance for any suggestions!!!!

I think I just answered my own question!
I can get around using a screensaver if I set DVD Studio Pro to timeout the main menu to a looping "screensaver type" video that I can create. This would allow the viewer to watch any video on the DVD, which would end by going to the main menu, which would then stay on the screen for two minutes, and then start the "screen saver video", I can then put a clear screen size button over the entire screen, so that the user can press enter to sent them back to the main menu. This will actually work a lot better than the Apple screensavers anyway..

When I try to connect to a WiFi network that I need a screen pops up and says "The network you're attempting to join requires you to install a profile on your Apple TV." What does this mean?
Yes, home sharing requires both to be on the same wifi network. As it stands access to the network requires the login via webpage, which cannot be done on Apple TV. You will need to speak to IT in order to grant access for the device.

When my wife tries to update one of her apps a strange Apple ID pops up. Her Apple ID is correct in settings and in the apple store. What does this mean? Where did the other one come from?
There is something on your iPhone (a music file, iBook, document or video) that belongs to another Apple ID. Only your wife would know how that file arrived there. Your iPhone is asking for the correct Apple ID for all of the files that are resident on the iPhone.

"All purchases have been downloaded for this Apple ID." What does this mean?
I must be misunderstanding what this means. I assume that when I choose the menu item Check for available downloads... it will find things in the store that I have purchased, but not downloaded. For example I subscribe to Justified and Better Call Saul. I choose this menu item on the morning after these shows air, and I get the dialog box telling me 'All purchases have been downloaded for this Apple ID." I have find show in the store and then download them manually.

ITunes 12.1.0.50I pressed my Apple support person to verify if this was a known issue, here is her response:
This is Irish again from the iTunes Store Support.
I have confirmed that this is a known issue. Please trust that Apple is currently working towards a resolution. I know that this has been said a lot, but I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you.
As an alternative, we recommend our customers to try downloading the latest episodes through our iTunes in the Cloud feature.
For those of you who do not know how to download the episode manually:
1. Go to iTunes and log in
2. Go to the iTunes store, home page
3. On the right, click on "Purchased"
4. At the top, choose "TV Shows"
5. On the right, choose the TV show you want to download (eg: Walking Dead)
6. Choose the Season (3 for Walking Dead)
7. A window of episodes will open, scroll down to episode 30 and you'll notice it says it's not downloaded yet. 8. Click on the Cloud icon and start downloading.
Not as easy as clicking once on "Check for available downloads!"

Hi everyone,
My iphone and Ipad got stollen yesterday...
I registered my Ipad onto "my profile" but when I tried to register my Iphone 4 onto "My Profile" it says that the product has been registered under ANOTHER apple ID. What does this mean?! Does this mean that the thief is using my phone under a new apple ID?!
I am getitng abit paranoid because when I tried to download a new app onto my macbook pro, it says that someone had accessed my account from a new computer. I am so scared.. as I know that if they are able to access my apple ID account they can see my billing/card details. I tried to delete my billing address and card details on my apple ID account to prevent this from occuring but I can't. Please help
Many thanks,
KimYou should change your AppleID password NOW. And if it says it was registered under another AppleID, the thief has probably done it.

I want a song purchased on my ipad with my apple id downloaded onto our home mac mini. So i can listen to it via that computer. However the mac is registered to my husbands apple id and it comes up with a message about 90days wait needed or something. What does this mean? And how do I get one measly song downloaded?!
Welcome to the Apple Community.
It sounds like you are trying to change your login in the Tunes store through iTunes on your computer, which you can only do once in 90 days, which you don't need to do for this.
What does your iPad usually sync with. -
I have downloaded music to my phone through my Apple ID and it has this message that reads you can download purchases on this device with one Apple ID account every ninety days, what does this mean and how do I fix it?
Well, it doesn't mean that at all. You can download music purchased with an Apple ID to up to 10 devices. There is no 90 day wait. The wait is if you change the Apple ID.

Did you try to charge it using the adapter or your computer?
If you can, let it charge for about 15min, then connect in recovery mode, described in this article:

If still not luck, your battery might have to be replaced:
