Thr screensaver turns off the music even when I Set it as yes, screensaver with music. I have restore the appletv, but it still happens.
My screensaver is turning off the music, even if i choose yes, screensaver with music. How to fix that? I have already restored the appletv.
Try manually connecting the device to your PC in Disk Mode and then restoring it iTunes.
From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
Putting iPod devices with a Click Wheel into Disk Mode
If necessary, verify that your iPod has a Click Wheel.
Before placing the iPod into Disk Mode, verify that it is charged.
Toggle the Hold switch on and off (set it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons for at least six seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
When the Apple logo appears, release the Menu and Select buttons and immediately press and hold the Select and the Play/Pause buttons until the Disk Mode screen appears.
Connect the iPod to your computer; the screen on the iPod will should say "Do not disconnect".
If you are having difficulty putting your iPod into Disk Mode, set it on a flat surface. Make sure that the finger pressing the Select button is not touching the Click Wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Play/Pause button toward the outside of the Click Wheel and not near the center. If you are still unable to put your iPod into Disk Mode, use one finger from one hand to press the Select button, and one finger from the other hand to press the Play/Pause button.

My iPad2 3G won't connect to 3G. It used to (bought Nov 2011) but hasn't for a couple weeks. The AT&T account is current. I've tried turning off the wifi but it still won't connect to 3G. Any ideas?
Have you tried using it in a different location; say in the town center.
Also try a Reset. -
HT201401 Why does my iPhone 3G keep turning off by itself even when it's not dead?
My dad had his iPhone 3G and gave it to me when he had an upgrade. He never had the issue of it turning off by itself, but when he gave it to me, all of a sudden it decided to turn off by itself even when it was on like 80% still.
I took it in to the Apple Store near me and they said that I had too much "stuff" on it, mostly music.
So, I completely redid my phone. I reset it completely so that it looked like a completely new iPhone. And then downloaded only 12 apps and 195 songs. And, only about 50 pictures. (This is an 8 gig by the way)
Right now, there's less than 4 gigs on there so far meaning I still have more than half of my phone to fill. They guy at the store said it needs 2 gigs to run.
SO, it should have started working since theres way less stuff on there now, and more than enough space to run. Why does it keep turning off still though?
It's so annoying and inconvenient. If anyone could help it would be SO appreciated.
THANKS!!Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as a new device. Go through each step in succession until your issue is resolved.

Make sure you close iTunes before shutdown. And you're quite welcome. -

I misplaced my ipad, so I remotely erased it. Then I found it, but now I cannot use all of the options in the settings. I have restored from backup, but it still is not letting me use all functionality. Help!
Would throwing it in Recovery mode and restoring as new clear it up?
(same for Ipad)
Step 1: Turn off the iPhone. To do this press and hold the power button till you see the “Slide to Power off” screen. Now slide the button to turn it off.
In case your iPhone is stuck in an infinite loop and the previous option is unavailable, press and hold the Power and Home button till the screen goes off. Remember to leave both the buttons as soon as the screen goes off and before the Apple logo appears again.
Step 2: Connect the iPhone’s USB cable to your computer but not to your iPhone yet.
Step 3: Now hold down the Home button and while you are holding it connect the USB cable. Keep holding the Home button till you see the Connect to iTunes screen on your iPhone(Screenshot shown below). iTunes will show an alert saying a device in recovery mode has been detected.
Here’s what your iPhone screen will look like once its in the iPhone Recovery Mode.

How can I turn off the monitor but not the computer on my touchsmart 310..
I leave my computer on at night to keep wireless network going, but I want to turn off just the monitor. All of the advice I've seen is to turn off the touchscreen feature -not the monitor itself. Thank you.
You can set the timing for the display to turn off.
Try this:
Click:
Start.
Control Panel.
Hardware and Sound.
Power Options.
On the left bar you'll find Choose when to turn off the display.
At Turn off the display: there is a drop dowm menu to choose the number of minutes before the display turns off. Make your selection.
Try that and see if it works for you.
I hope this is what you were looking for,

I was migrating from macbook to a new imac.
Nothing showed up until I turned off the imac.
When I restarted the imac everythign I'd previously done was gome and the migrated macbook desktop had taken over.
How do I bring back the original imac settings.
ThanksYou can't. When you migrate user accounts, those settings will be used. That's the point of migrating, not to have to reset things Peruse Pondini's Setup New Mac guide for details.
If you want to revert to the original user settings, create an new admin user account. That'll use the default user setup. -
My ipad was working, and then just said it wasn't connected to the internet. I have forgotten the network and rejoined, I have turned off the ipad (slid on the arrow), and still no luck. The macbook is working with no problem. Help.

iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Turn off the display but prevent sleep
Hello,
I am new to the Mac OS system and am facing a difficulty.
I want to keep my macbook running through the night downloading the updates, however I want the display to be off. For this I have used apps like caffeine and no sleep and have also modified the system preferences. But still whenever I turn off my display, after some time the macbook goes to sleep and all my downloads and updates are paused.
Is there any workaround which allows me to turn off the display without letting the mac to go to sleep ??Have you tried the energy saving setting that controls the hard drive sleep, and set it to Never?
Then it won't matter the minutes display is set to wait until sleep, so long as it's not also never.
If there is a problem with this not working, you may check into an SMC reset; or perhaps also
the NVRAM/PRAM, as one or both may be in control over some aspect of this (dys)function.
•Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
•About NVRAM and PRAM
There may be other issues with the later versions Mavericks energy saver selections; in the
older systems the matter was refined and less a problem. Your mileage may vary.
Good luck & happy computing!

Display screen is turned off after timeout even when blanking disabled
After a recent update which among other things upgraded gnome to 3.10 my display blanking policy no longer behaves according to a configuration.
Currently it is being turned off (monitor says "no DVI signal" and switches off) after each 10 mins if idle time.
In Gnome's Power Settings I have 'Blank Screen' set to Never.
It used to work perfectly earlier, no blanking, but now it blanks not only when I'm idle, but even when watching some movie in VLC.
I am not sure if this has to do with Gnome update or some other system component is causing this.
Using nvidia driver.
Any hint or link to the topic with the workaround would be greatly appreciated.
I tried google and local forum search and found nothing on the topic

I noticed that the DPMS settings for Standby, Suspend and Off were back to their default values (60/60/600) instead of the 0/0/0 as I am using
xset s off &
in my openbox autostart file to avoid the screen blanking.
The way I fixed it was to simply run
xset -dpms
being the DPMS featured as disabled when queried.
Afterwards I checked that the screen did not blank again and 1) logged out and 2) restarted checking both times that the DPMS were the ones expected (0/0/0).
Thus, so far, I have no issues with the screen blanking in a non Gnome environment (Openbox) anymore.

How does one turn off the appletv
How does one turn off an Apple tv? I think it's 3d generation.
If you are at the top level "Home" page, press and hold the Pause Button and AppleTV will shut off after a few seconds.
If you are not yet at the Home page, you can repeatedly press the Menu button to move back up there, or even better press and hold the Menu button to jump back to the Home page no matter how deeply down you've burrowed.
I find it satifying to turn it off when I walk away, but don't know if there's any real advantage compared to just letting it time out as suggested by Kappy. -
