Tell Apple wake up my computer.

Home sharing from iPad, iPhone, ATV, laptop whichever device you choose should not require leaving your computer awake all the time.
There should be an option to wake your computer from sleep mode then connect to your iTunes library.
Right now I use splashtop streamer to wake my computer then have to connect with my music and video apps.
It would easier if the wake feature was native in the devices.
Am I missing something?
Where is Apple's Green conscience?

This has been working EVERY TIME:
Connect your iPad/iPhone to your iMac via Bluetooth when iMac is awake.
Now when iMac is sleeping and
When iTunes shared library doesn't show up, turn on Bluetooth on your iPad/iPhone and click on your iMac connection.
Now I have found whether or not the device connects to the Mac, the connection to the shared library can now be made through the other apps.
Try it, it has worked EVEY TIME.

I can't sync apps to my iPad. They tell me to authorize my computer. But, I have already done that. A relative of mine downloaded apps to my iPad from her Apple ID. So how can I sync the iTunes apps from my PC to my iPad?

I had gotten this iPad 2 from one of my relatives who had already purchased some apps using her Apple ID, after I got the iPad, I downloaded some apps from iTunes on PC through my own Apple ID, when I try to sync them to my iPad, they tell me to authorize my computer, but I've already done that. So, how can I sync my apps to my iPad? (By the way, I don't know anything about the Apple ID of my relative).

delete/uninstall the apps that your relative downloaded on you iPad. to do that tap and hold on and icon til it shakes, once its shaking downloaded apps will havee (X) mark on them on a red bubble, tap on it to delete

Have done both suggestions, still not working. Could it have somehting to do with my local network? I am using a wireless Internet provided by my apartment building so not sure if apple tv and my computer are not technically on the same "local network?"
apple tv and main computer are connecting to Internet fine. Just cannot see my itunes on apple tv.
any other advice? My itunes is turned on to home sharing. i entered the same apple itunes account into aple tv. but appletv keeps saying my computer's home sharing is not turned on...but it is.

I ca not install Itunes 10.5 on vista or windows 7 my iPhone 4 is much slower and freezes and also certain apps and also certain features will not work on the phone now that I cannot update it to ios5. When I go to the store they turn me away with my laptops and tell me to buy there computer that's the only answer. I know there has to be away around it? I am also up for a new upgrade on my second phone line and was going to get a 4s but now I am thinking it may be the wrong choice I am very unhappy with Apple right now...

How do I tell Apple to fix their software like apps that play sound even though the sound is turned off and not being able to disable features you hate like game center

Apple is suppose to be the pinnacle of usability and, yet, I want to throw my new IPhone 4s as far as I can and watch is smash into a million pieces on concrete. Seriously, I've already got three things that irritate the **** out of me. First, there are Apple apps that insist on playing sound even though the sound is turned off. If I flick a switch to turn the sound off, I want the sound off!!!! Second, if I do not want a totally unnecessary feature like Game Center, I should be able to disable it. I completed most of the Angry Bird levels with 2 or 3 stars and now I have to start over from square one. Maybe, this happened when I upgraded to the 4s but it sure seemed to happen when I joined Game Center. Tomorrow, I am going to reset my 4s to factory defaults to try to get rid of my Game Center account. I don't want Game Center! I do need Game Center! I hate Game Center! Finally, I had an alarm go off to wake me up and there was a Snooze button but no button to turn the alarm off. I flicked the slider to access the main screen expecting to see something to turn the alarm off but there was nothing. The alarm just kept alarming. I had to warm boot my IPhone to shut the alarm off! Really, Apple!!!!

The sound is turned off. Only, some Apple apps like YouTube and Siri make sound when the sound is turned off. It is very embarrassing when this happens at work. My question was how do I tell Apple to fix this?
Turning off game center does not work. The games just prompt me to sign in when they are started.I have tried everything I can find online to stop this behavior. It is annoying and should not happen. My question was how do I tell Apple to fix this?
The alarm went off. There was a green thing that looked like a button but pressing it did nothing. There was a red button that said snooze. I did not want to snooze. I wanted to turn the alarm off. I slid the bar to unlock the phone and there were no running apps with a button to press. The alarm just keep running. I have not had this problem since it first occurred. The alarm now shuts off when I just unlock the phone. It may have happened because I had another alarm app running. The two may have interfered with each other. I would like to tell Apple about it.
It also annoys me that the button that closes apps leaves the phone app running. If I press on a number at 6:00 AM to get information about who called me, the phone automatically dials the person back and my natural reaction is to press on the button to close the phone app but the phone keeps dialing this person at 6:00 AM. It is a bad design. I would like to tell Apple about it.
Finally, I looked all over Apple's site to try to find someplace I could send them a polite message to let them know that I was not happy with these "features" but could not find anything. It is extremely frustrating to have issues with a product and not being able to tell the manufacturer about it. So, you grow up!.
When trying to fix the Game Center issue, I saw a link someone posted to report issues with the IPad to Apple. The answer I am looking for is where is the link to report issues with the IPhone.

Can't hook up my Apple TV to my computer??grrrr..

Just got my apple tv and bought top of the line HDMI cable and want to know how do I connect my Apple TV to my computer so i can synch my movies and start using the unit. The unit is charging at the moment, do I have to wait til the unit is fully charged - does a red light come on.
MY CPU doesn't have the slot that is on the cable. Can I retroffit it to accomodate the cable? My HD TV has the slot to view the movies but I need to get the movies on the Apple TV. Had I known this was going to be so difficult, I would have passed. I need 101 instructions. The pamphlet is not clear, it says this or that and i don't really know what this or that is. Help.

I think you need to study the instructions, I'm not sure whether you have them or some other leaflet but they do tell you how to set the unit up.

All Apple products on my computer are not working properly

Hello, i am having trouble with my itunes, Quicktime, and all other apple products on my computer.
This all start when i tried to update my Itunes(which was working fine minus this problem) and it would not let me. It kept giving me the error "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" when i hit ok "The path C\:user\Danie\appdata\Local\Apple\Apple software update\ Itunes64.msi cannot be found verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package Itunes64.msi in a folder from which you can install the product". This happenede with the installation of Quicktime to.
Finally i got fed up with these errors and decided to get rid of Itunes and Quicktime all togther. I went to the programs area and i tried to uninstall and to my joy got the exact same error as when i tried to update. It would not let me Reinstall Uninstall or update anything related to apple products because of the "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" error.
I finally manually went and uninstalled the folder through program files into the bin and deleted but despite that i still have the program Itunes listed in my Programs and features page and it still wont let me reinstall or remove it. All it ended up doing was causing me not to be able to use itunes on my laptop at all.
Further information im on a Dell Laptop using a 64bit system Windows 7.
Thank you for anyhelp you can offer in getting this problem fixed

Unfortunately, these sorts of msi-related troubles have gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes and QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try reinstalling iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

I changed my apple id on my computer and my iPad does not recognize the new id

I changed my Apple id on my computer and my ipad does not recognize the new id and continues to display the old id. How can I get it to change to the new id?

Easy Fix: On your iPad, go into Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and click on your hotmail account. Simply replace the password that's already there with your new one. Then, I recommend rebooting your iPad:
To reboot your iPad, hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously until the screen goes black and the Apple logo appears. If, during this process, a slider appears on the screen to power it off, ignore it and keep holding the buttons down.
If you've already tried this, then the next step would be to delet your hotmail account from your iPad (also in Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars) and then reboot the iPad and add the account back again.

Hi prkrgrp,

How do I tell Apple Watch that I stand all day?

How do I tell Apple Watch that I stand all day? I use a standing computer station and Apple Watch keeps telling me I need to stand. I don't really care about the notifications reminding me to stand, but if it's doing that, then it doesn't seem to me that it's reflection the fact that I'm standing constantly. I don't think the activity level, concerning time standing, is being correctly recorded and reported.

on the Apple watch app on the Iphone under Activity you can turn Stand Reminders off

Can I authorize 2 apple IDs on one computer?

I'm new to the communities so please bear with me if I post this inappropriately.
My husband and I both have iphones. My two children have itouchs. My husband has an ipad. We also have numerous ipods.
We have two computers in the house. When my husband first bought an ipod, we had a PC. All of his devices have always been synced on the PC using his apple id. When I got my iphone, I synced on our MAC using my apple id. When the kids got itouches, they synced on the MAC using their apple id.
We discovered that anything the kids and I purchased on itunes on the MAC is available to all of us.
We would now like to use home sharing. To do this, both computers must be authorized to one apple id. If the PC is deauthorized for my husband's apple id, I understand he will lose his purchases on the PC (or at least they won't be available until he authorizes it again).
I understand that an apple id may be authorized on up to 5 computers. But what about multiple apple id on one computer???
My questions are basically this...
Can we authorize 2 or more apple id on one computer?
Can I authorize my apple id on the PC and have my husband's apple id remain authorized on the PC?
Can my husband's apple id be authorized on the MAC and my apple id remain authorized?
Can the kids apple id be authorized on each of the PC and the MAC?
Can we have 4 different apple id authorized on a computer at once?
Will authorizing my apple id on the PC de-authorize my husband's apple id?
How's that for asking the same question in lots of different ways? I have seen a lot about a computer using the same id multiple times but nothing about whether I can authorize many different ids on one computer at once.
Thanks for the help.

Each person in your home can have their own Apple ID provided it is tied the their own separate email address.
iTunes permits up to five authorized computers connected to a single Apple ID: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
For this all to work well, however, each user in your household should have a separate user account on the computer they commonly use.

HT1390 I've rented & downloaded a movie on my computer in itunes, but it does not show up on my Apple TV. Everything else shows up on Apple TV, including my computer's movie library. When I click on the movie in Apple TV it says I've already rented it.

When I click on the movie in Apple TV it says I've already rented it and asks if I want to rent it again. No, I just want to watch it.

Unfortunately I have to if I download it on my computer. I have rented itunes movies before directly using the Apple TV and it worked just fine and I could stay in the living room. Without clicking that icon on my computer, there was no way to watch it.

My iPad has a different Apple ID than the Apple ID on my computer. The iPad Apple ID has an email address that I no longer use. If I try to add the email address that I now use (and which is my Apple ID on the computer), it won't allow me to add it.

My iPad has a different Apple ID than the Apple ID on my computer. The iPad Apple ID has an email address that I no longer use. If (while on the iPad) I go to My Apple ID and try to change or add the email address that I now use (and which already is my Apple ID on the computer), it won't allow me to add it. It says : "Email address is already verified for another Apple ID" I haven't really been aware of this as a problem until I tried (for the first time) to sync my iPad to the computer and became aware that certain things wouldn't transfer. What is the solution to this?

What are you having problems with ?
This post was about having updated the primary email address on an iTunes account via a computer - if you do that you might need to log out of the account on an iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version of the account for that email address change to be recognised on your iPad. If you don't log out and back in then an iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch) might continue to show the old version of the iTunes account id.

Delete and redownload the ones that don't work if doing so is free in your country.
