Turned off homesharing and remote app unpaired? Cannot use it.

Hello,
I tried to correct the Homesharing and Itunes Store issue on my Apple TV G2, it kept wanting my old Apple ID, so following instructions on here, I turned off homesharing in "Computers" on AppleTV, and instead of letting me put in my current Apple ID, it unpaired from the App Remote on my Ipad. Thinking it was an app issue, I uninstalled and restalled the App again (the older verison, not IOS 7). When I opened it, the Apple TV icon was no longer there, and when I sign in to homesharing, there is no option for Apple TV. I no longer have the original remote, which is why I've been using the Remote app. I can't control Apple TV, now. Anything I can do without buying another one? =(

Unfortunately, I think you'll need an new remote.

  • I have just upgraded to OSX Maverick and now my Apple TV has taken over my iTunes videos. I have tried turning off homeshare and iHave gone into system prefs and disabled the remote, but the problem persists. Any ideas.

    After upgrading to OSX Maverick my Apple TV  has taken control of my iTunes videos insisting I have to watch it on my TV. I have tried disabling home sharing on iTunes and on the Apple TV menu, I have also checked the disable Infrared facility in Systems Prefs Security. Even if I put the Apple TV in standby as soon as I hit a key on my iMac, Apple TV comes back on and on my Itunes screen I get the Apple TV logo imprinted on the screen, meaning I can no longer watch it on my MAC, I have run out of ideas. Can anyone help.

    I think you're headed the right direction. There is an AirPlay icon (on mine it is up near the play/pause controls) that I believe is used to set the default desitination for the video to play.
    I'd never seen your issue before, but opened iTunes on a recently-upgraded-to-Mavericks MacBook and it did exactly as you described. While the video was loading, I switched the AirPlay option to the computer instead of ATV and it began playing locally (after a delay as you'd mentioned). I then read this page, which is actually quite old: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1091073, which lead me to the icon near the play/pause button. It now has Computer selected on it, and defaults to play locally instead of the ATV even after quitting and reopening iTunes. I hope that is helpful.

  • I cannot change song order on playlist with highlight and drag. I have turned off shuffle and highlighted the far left column( up/down arrow) of playlist. My mac pro is running 10.5.8  and am using itunes 10.4.

    I cannot change song order on playlists (old or new) with highlight and drag. I have turned off shuffle and highlighted the far left column (up/down arrow) of playlist. My mac pro is running 10.5.8  and am using itunes 10.4. I can't drag and drop "music" to "playlist" but can right click and get the option to "add to playlist." No such option for moving song within playlist, only the up and down arrow which moves song from top to bottom list, so if it is #4 from top it will move to #4 from bottom. Stupid I know. I spent over an hour with Apple support, reinstalled itunes, restarted and rebooted computer. Networked with my laptop which is running 10.6.8 and itunes 10.4 and it can drag and drop. The final Apple support solution was to reinstall my operating system. I would prefer not to. Any other ideas?

    After looking at other people's posts, I think it's official: there is a bug. Itunes support said I should not have lost the drag/drop tool and I haven't on the laptop that is running itunes 10.4 and operating system 10.6.8. I chatted with someboby who lost both his drag/drop and side scroll and what we have in common is a wacom tablet for a mouse. My laptop is a wireless mouse. I reinstalled whatever updated driver that wacom has out there, shut the system down for night, hoping for magic, but alas none to be had. So if I want to change song order, I network the laptop and desktop, share the screen on the laptop, drag and drop to my heart's content and curse Apple for making me work this hard to find the tool that was once at my fingertips. Apple also let me know that if I want to share songs in household that the hundreds on songs that were purchased for .99 need to be repurchased for another .30. Maybe Apple is holding my drag/drop tool captive til I pay up the money or Maybe the next update will fix the problem, I for one give up for now.

  • I bought a second apple tv and would like to control it with the remote app but cannot find a way to add a second device.  Anyone have an idea how to do that?

    I bought a second apple tv and would like to control it with the remote app but cannot find a way to add a second device.  Anyone have an idea how to do that?

    I'm having the same issue and would like to get some help.  I set up a second Apple TV in our bedroom and wanted to be able to control it using my iPhone like I do with the Apple TV in the living room.  The new Apple TV is active on the network and I've made sure the same Apple ID is used for both the Apple TV as well as the Remote App on my iPhone.  I'm just wondering what I might be overlooking.

  • After the new update my ipad4 will not do a full recharge even when turned off overnight and the battery goes flat it 2 hours  it is driving me crazy as I had to stop all apps but still not helping

    After the new update my ipad4 will not do a full recharge even when turned off overnight and the battery goes flat it 2 hours  it is driving me crazy as I had to stop all apps but still not helping but my iPhone 5 is great no troubles at all HELP

    Do you place the ipod in the dock during the night? I did this once and the other day the battery was almost empty because it kept on playing after it rested in the dock.

    Just bought Iphone6 Plus 16GB Gold on 15 Dec 2014 from The Australian official Apple website.
    In this week, my phone turn it off automatically (very frequent, it seems like if i not use my phone, it will shut down)
    and cannot normally turn on the phone, i can only turn it on through HOME BUTTON + TURN ON/OFF BUTTON.
    And after i turn on the phone, the WIFI button become GREY COLOR, which means i cannot use WIFI, cannot turn on/off.
    And i try to restore setting from the phone and also from iTunes through computer, it doesn't help.
    Does anybody know what happen to my phone?

  • How do I turn off password protection for apps and keep them from downloading on all my apple devices

    How do I turn off password protection for apps on my Iphone4 and keep them from loading on all other devices?

    What do you mean by "password protection for apps"?
    To keep apps from downloading on a device automatically, go to Settings> Store> and turn off the things you don't want downloaded automatically.

  • Turn off apple tv remote on my mac?

    I have an apple tv March 2012 and June 2012 macbook pro how do you turn off the apple remote support on the macbook pro? Everytime I use the remote and the apple tv and my mac is on the remote keeps going into my itunes on my mac.

    I don't have two remotes, so can't fully confirm if it works properly or not, but there is a "pair" function. As can be seen in the image, it says "Unpair" under the option "Disable remote control IR receiver". This is because Ferd II must have one paired.
    However, it normally says "Pair...". If you click that, it will tell you how to pair the remote. You can then pair which remote you want to your iMac.
    The issue is, until you do that, it states under the option for disabling the IP receiver "This computer will work with any available remote.". Of course this isn't always ideal.
    Then, on your Apple TV > Settings > General > Remotes, you can pair the remaining remotes.
    To answer your question simply, it seems like yes, you can distinguish between remotes.
    Like I said, can't say how well it works as I haven't got two remotes so haven't distinguished between them as such. But don't see why it shouldn't work like a charm!
    Although I wouldn't have known about this if it wasn't for the genuis of Ferd II!! THANKS SO MUCH FERD II!
    This has been driving me crazy ever since I got my Apple TV and searching came up fruitless until now!
    (P.S. Awesome name PokémonFan! YAY FOR POKÉMON! )

  • I want to use Back to my mac. When I try to turn it on, it says "Back to My Mac may be slow because more than one device on your network is providing network services.   Turn off NAT and DHCP on one of the devices and try again." How do I fix this?

    Not sure if I am doing this right. This is my first time in the support community.
    I imagine what I put in my heading was supposed to go in here.
    I want to use Back to my mac. When I try to turn it on, it says "Back to my mac may be slow because more than one device on your network is providing network services. Turn off NAT and DHCP on one of the devices and try again. See the documentation that came with your device for information about turning off network services"
    Does anyone know how I do this? I contacted my ISP (Telus in Canada) and they did not know anything (not that they usually do).

    Why do ISPs insist upon making things so difficult for their customers?
    If you cannot get them to understand that you would prefer to use your own router over their piece of cheap junk, perhaps the information in the following will be useful:
    http://keithbalomben.wordpress.com/2012/03/29/telus-actiontec-v1000h-hacks-and-i nformation/
    Scroll down to DHCP Settings
    You will need to log in with proper "technician" credentials. They are provided in the above link as
    Username: tech
    Password: t3lu5tv
    ... but these may or may not work. Try it, and if you cannot get anywhere at least now you know what to ask Telus to do in return for your business.

  • Can't turn off iCloud and F'd up my Calendar

    I have an iPhone with my Work calendar Synced with my work computer (outlook Calendar). Also, I have iMac 27" i5 with my Home calendar (iCal).   This has worked fine and separetly for the last 3years.  My home calenders allow me to organise my life with payments and is very important. My work calendar, well that speaks for it's self.
    I install iOS5 on iPhone and Lion on the iMac which unbekownence to me have iCloud syncing on and doing stuff that has totally corupted my iMac Home Calendar.
    My home calendar has my work calander mixed in with my home calendar and reminders popup every few minutes that I have already dissmissed.  They won't stop popping up.  The same one over and over and they go back a month or more.
    Additionally, when I try to add an event it sometimes puts it in very day instead of a monthly re-ocurring event and then it won't delete the event when I try to fix it. 
    I've tried to turn off iCloud, and it does all the right things and appears to turn off but then when I go back in it is on again.
    The Work Calendar (Windows 7 Office 2010) doesn't show any symptoms and has kept working as it should on my work computer as on the iPhone. Neither appear to be effected
    I've tried all the delete files and reinsralls but iCal seems to just get more confused. It renames calendars and is totally out of control to the point of no return.
    I can't find any where which shows how to delete iCal and do a fresh install of iCal and not have iCloud sync.   I have searched Google for months and months with no joy.
    What I need is to stop iCloud and **** it off permently as it appears to be a problem for how I use my apps.  I do not want to use iCloud for calander or anything just yet.   I need to get my original .ics backup in iCal that I have and working on it's own and with out the cloud or syncing.
    Help anyone ... 
    P.S.   I have only one profile, Admin.
              I've tried another profile and it replicates and operated worse than the Admin account with iCal.
              Also I have time machine back to August 2011.  I've tried all the Google fixes and none have worked

    Hmmm!
    Sorry for taking so long to get back.  But the thing was none of the instruction where able to get the iCloud turned off. If anything it is for someone who moves between the Local and the iCloud than turnng off iCloud.
    I want to turn off iCloud syncing in my System Preference and iCal.  iCal is syncing with iCloud and I do not want that.  My iPhone is syncing with iCloud and I don't want that either. I never enabled these options and had to find out where they were before I could even start trying to turning them off.
    My iPads do not I’m unsure why
    Is it possible to un-sync and turn off all iCloud activities on my iMac with Lion 10.7.3?   
    I think I made up a word (Un-Sync) to re-turn back to the original state before the first sync

    The problem is your friend's music does not belong to you.  It is owned by your friend.
    I'm afraid you cannot do what you are trying to do.  Restoring the iPhone is what you would have to do.
    In the future, put your music on the computer and transfer it to the iPhone, not the other way.

  • When my phone is not plugged into the charger or computer, it will not turn on at all; even though it is not dead. When it's plugged into the computer, it will go to a white screen with a grey apple icon and then it will turn off again and repeat. IOS7

    Try this step and if you cannot get your device into recovery mode there is a chance you have a hardware failure and you need to call apple to see what service options you have.

  • I turned off documents and data in my iCloud setting on my iPhone. How do I turn it back on?

    I turned off "documents and data" from my iCloud settings on
    my iPhone. How do I turn it back on?

    If you're running iOS 8, it's on by default and you don't have the option to turn it off.  You can confirm that it's on by checking Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage and make sure you see your apps are listed under the Documents & Data setting.  (It will only list apps that sync documents & data with iCloud.)
