When I mirror from my I pad/iPhone and use the top button to close my display on my devices it also closes airplay is there a way around this
When mirroring how do I close my display on my iPad/iPhone while using tv apps and not closing airplay
I don't know if it would even be possible to allow the iPad to mirror while it is asleep, but if you want to make Apple aware of anything with regard to the iPad, give it a try here.

Error message (-51) keeps coming up when I try to send music from iTunes to my iPhone and then the music won't come over. How can I fix this message?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

My folders that my message rules on iCloud divert emails to don't update when I open Mail on my iPad or iPhone. Only the inbox does. I have to click on each folder individually for it to update. A real pain as I have about 30 folders. Is there a way around this ? The folders update on my mac fine when i check mail without having to select each one of them. Can the iPad and iPhone do the same thing?
My Mac has 4 mail accounts coming into it, but you are correct, one of them is a POP account, (and unfortunately it is the main @ account, and is the one associated with my apple id, since we've had it for years). I couldn't figure out how to replace this with the Imap version, short of deleting that account entirely.
Is this what I have to do?
Thanks for your help! -
I have a lot of music on my ipod from CD's I own. I want this music on my new iphone 4s. Because music was not purchased via itunes, it will not allow me to transfer the music. Is there a way around this?
You can transfer music imported from cd's to your iphone. This has never been a restriction.
You are having a problem in your individual case.
Have you tried basics fro the manual? restart, reset, restore. -
When I try to buy ibooks from my ipad, the virtual keyboard is not the same as my computer keyboard, and since my password consists of letters, numbers and symbols, the ipad keeps displaying "incorrect password". Is there any way around this please anybody?

Are you using the virtual keyboard to input your password and you cannot see/find the characters you need on that keyboard?
Or are you trying to use a bluetooth keyboard and pressing the printed key does not produce the right character? -
I have a new iPhone 5 from T-Mobile. I can send simple texts just fine. However, I have to turn off wi-if and enabler cellular to send texts to more than one person or to attach a picture. Is there a way around this?
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

iCloud said that my stolen iphone will be wiped when the iphone connects to the internet. Then I received an email saying remote wipe has started. Is there any way to know if remote wipe was completed?

I bought a used iPod touch and when I try to set up my iCloud account, it says that the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this device. Is there a way around this? I thought I could maybe set up the account on my PC and go from there, but it won't let me do that. It is forcing me to set up on the iPod. Am I doomed to have no iCloud account because I opted for a used device?
See this previous discussion.

I have a new mac and want to sync my phone to the iTunes on it, but it won't let me manually manage without deleting all music on the phone already from another iTunes. is there a way around this?
The best solution:
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
An alternative which is really not what you should have to do, or the way it is intended to be done, if you properly manage your computer and backups:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
Sync transfer is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer (except purchased content as mentioned above). For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod.

Do not regard your i-device as a reliable unique storage for your media. It is not a backup device and everything is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself backed up. -
I use Mac Messages app for iMessage, SMS, AIM, & Google Chat. When I attempt to send a new AIM message it defaults to sending an iMessage. Is there a way around this?
I have my preferences set to save messages history in my Mac Messages app and the issue seems to arise when I attempt to send a new AIM message to someone that I have recently had an iMessage conversation with. I have tried right clicking the person's name in my buddy list and selecting "Start New Chat" and it appears as though I'm writing a new AIM message to them but when I send the message it defaults back to an iMessage. AIM is used for daily communication by everyone in my company and used heavily throughout my industry. Considering a majority of my contacts don't have iMessage synced to their Messages/AIM app on their desktop it is ineffective and disruptive to send an iMessage instead of an AIM.
Any insight or help would be appreciated. I'd love to find a solution without having to turn off the save messages history setting in my Mac Messages app.
Thanks-
AdamHi,
The Name at the "To" spot should become a drop down and this should show you the various ways you can connect to them.
A "Chat" with someone can then switch between the various options if they have several ways.
As @mac.com and other Apple issued ID can also be AIM valid Screen Names you sometimes have to take a little care.
If you have made it to be an AIM chat though it should not switch back to iMessages even if that was the last method they used to contact you.
I find in Mavericks (that I am currently booted into) I can double click the Buddy Line in the Buddy List (And I have my Buddy List separate) the Chat will take on the AIM item in the text field.
This was an iMessages conversation before this.
I presume this still works in Yosemite.

I recently upgraded from OS 10.5 on a PowerMac G5 to an early Intel Mac Pro running 10.7.5. To my consternation, I now find that my scroll wheel operates backwards from what I'm used to. Did Apple make a change that caused that? Is there any way around this?
Apple didn't make this easy, did they! When Lion first came out, I think that check box was under the Trackpad heading of the System Preferences, whether you actually had a trackpad or not. I take it there's nothing there, either?
I plugged a plain ol' three button Logitech mouse into the iMac, and while the Mouse panel options did change some, the same check box for Move content in the direction of finger movement when scrolling or navigating was there. -
There is an extra dot on the lock screen of my iphone and on the top bar of the phone screen 5 (ex: "10.20."). What should I do?
If you swipe down from that bar, it will pull up your notification center.

After having yet another problem with my MacBook Pro and having to wipe the drive, I am now unable to sync my iPhones etc without erasing all the music on them. Is there a way around this? I have no other library!
iTunes is a mess! It couldn't find it's own libraries and I was forced to create a new one. Now I don't know where my music is or if any's missing.columbus new boy wrote:
How crap is that?
It's not crap at all.
It's not that simple. For example, I've 3500 songs on my MacBook but don't want them all on my phone, so I have to manually select each song again???
There has to be a solution.
Why not simply make a playlist with the songs you want on the iPhone?
and maintain a current backup of your computer. -
I have 5 computers authorized on my account and I would like to deauthorize all of them. When I try it tells me I cannot do so until January 2016. Is there a way around this? I no longer have access to the computers that are authorized.
Did you recently deauthorize a bunch of computers? You can only deauthorize all once year.
