  • Trying to set up Fam Sharing but can't get past the prompt telling me to add a payment method. I already have a payment in my iTunes account and wish to use it for FS. How do I do this?

    Trying to set up Fam Sharing but can't get past the prompt telling me to add a payment method. I already have a payment in my iTunes account and wish to use it for FS. How do I do this?

    Hi printspat,
    From what I gather, you have a payment method selected for your iTunes Store account which isn’t being accepted when setting up Family Sharing.
    Take a look at the he article linked below provides, which provides a lot of great information about Family Sharing, and make sure you're trying to use a valid payment method for setting up Family Sharing.
    Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support
    One adult in the family—the family organizer—can set up Family Sharing for the group from their iOS device or Mac. When you set up Family Sharing, you'll be asked to confirm that you agree to pay for purchases initiated by the family members you invite and that you have a valid payment method on file. Valid payment methods for setting up Family Sharing include credit cards and debit cards.* 
    Cheers,

    Why not?  What, if any, errors are occurring when trying to access the itunes store?
    Is iTunes actually installed?

  • I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R but will not play on my MacBook Pro. I have already recorded multiple DVDs. How can I get it to play on my Mac?

    I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R but will not play on my MacBook Pro. I have already recorded multiple DVDs. How can I get it to play on my Mac?

    "I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R"
    How? Using what equipment/software?
    "The DVD  plays on the device on which it was recorded."
    Just a guess: You're using a VCR-DVD combo recorder. DVDs produced in this way will play on the device that made them, but won't play on anything else until they're "finalized." In fact, Macs will recognize unfinalized DVDs as blank discs until the discs are finalized. Check the manual that came with the recording device for instructions.

  • How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable?  Video looks great, just no sound.

    How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable?  Video looks great, just no sound.
    I've tried plugging the hdmi into the TV directly and the receiver.
    I get video every time.  HBO to Go , Xfinity, ABC, Youtube, etc...
    just no audio.  Any suggestions? 
    I've tried starting the apps then plugging in the hdmi cable.
    I never tried this before I upgraded to IOS 5.

    Claudiamil-
    I had not tried it with mine since upgrading to iOS 5, so I just did.  I'm using a small Vizio HDTV.  I did not try YouTube, but did try several videos and musical numbers.  In all cases there was sound, including stereo when the source had it.
    I assume you are getting sound from the iPad when the adapter is not connected, so the volume is not turned down.  Dah*veed's suggestion to reset may be what you need.

  • Can I load a purchased movie from my Mac onto the iPod ?

    Can I load a purchased movie from my Mac onto the iPod ?

    Can I load a purchased movie from my Mac onto the iPod ?
    Yes, if the iPod is a Fifth Generation iPod, iPod classic, iPod touch, or a third or fourth generation iPod nano, and the movie is in iTunes. A Fifth Generation iPod can't play rented movies.

  • Itouch is connected but can't get email to work from Verizon account

    Hi,
    I have a new I-touch which is connecting fine to my wireless and will recieve and send email from an alternate email server.
    But I cannot get the settings correct for my verizon.net address to work on the I-touch.  It confuses me as my email address is verizon.net, but my old settings on my pc are incoming.yahoo.verizon.net and outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net. Should I be trying incoming.verizon.net, or incoming.yahoo.verizon.net.
    I have my user name without the @verizon.net and I have checked the password many times.
    I have the port setting at 587.
    It is on password authentication.
    Can anyone share with me which settings are working for them???
    Thanks,
    Laura
    Solved!

    I don't have a iTouch, but I do have an iPhone ...  the answer to your question depends on what "experience" you have when you get your mail from Verizon.   Are you using the Yahoo! portal experience perhaps?
    If so, the iPhone has a Yahoo! account profile which appears to work.   You use your full @verizon.net email address as the logon userid and your email password for Verizon.
    Standard POP also works ...

    Some of these settings are obviously personal preference, but there should be enough here for you to piece toogether what you need to get up and running.

    I have a new iPad 5.1. I sent an iTunes download from my desktop to my iPad as an attachment but cannot get it to play. Any suggestions?

    Are you not able to connect your iPad to your computer and sync it from iTunes instead of sending it as an attachment ?

  • Can't get iTunes to move from one song to the next

    I'm using iTunes 7.3.1 on an iMac with OS X 10.4.10. Everything was working fine, but now I can't get the playlists to move automatically from one song to the next. All the songs play if I double click on them individually, but when a song is finished playing, iTunes does not move automatically to the next song. I have to then double click on the next song I want to play. Furthermore, neither the "next," nor the "previous" track functions work. I have tried fiddling with the control settings (Repeat Off, Repeat All, Repeat One), but nothing I have tried makes a difference. Bottom line: If I want to sit at my computer and hear a playlist on iTunes, I have to manually click on each song I want to hear. Not too convenient when I want to listen while walking on my treadmill! Anyone suggestions would be appreciated.
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    Have the tracks become unchecked? iTunes will skip unchecked tracks, so if they're all unchecked, iTunes will play one and then stop. If this is indeed the case, re-checkmark the tracks - Command-click on any checkbox will select or unselect them all - and you should then have continuous playback.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT4623 Hi how can I get pages to download from my mac to my iPad? Do I have to buy it again?

    Thanks

    On the mac, you can save a Pages document to icloud and on the ipad (yes, you have to buy the ipad version of Pages) you can access the document.
    If instead you mean how to download the Pages program from a mac to an ipad, then you can't.  Different operating systems need different programs.  Just like you can't download Word in Windows to a Mac (unless you use a Windows simulator on the Mac).
