Why can I no longer stream my Apple movie collection?
In iTunes 10. I was able to see my entire movie library in my movies section, and even watch them without downloading them to my pc. Since v11 and on I have not been able to do this. Since my movie collection with Apple is insanely huge, I found this a great way to watch movies since I have no where near the HD space to have them all downloaded.
My question is twofold.
Why did you change this?
How can I get this ability back?
This is my first post. Please relocate if I have placed in the incorrect spot.
Under the view menu chech show title?

Why can I no longer stream music on my ipad/iphone?
I own an IPhone 4s with 16GB of storage capacity and a recently purchased IPad mini 2 with 32gb of storage capacity. I am operating off of ITunes IOS 8.1.2 for my iPhone and 8.1.1 on my iPad,
As of last year I was able to import music into itunes, upload it to icloud, and then stream the song on the device without it physically (or at least permanently downloading to my phone). It would work when I was connected to the internet via wi-fi or using the data plan I have with my family plan. The first time I realized there was a problem was when I attempted to stream music after downloading IOS 8.0. As I was having other issues with my phone at the time (it not installing the IOS correctly, not recognizing songs being uploaded to the cloud, text messages not being sent to other apple users, it was low on my bucket list.) Eventually I did look into it and found that people often suggested that I ensure that I enable icloud on my phone, and in music settings I turn on 'Show all Music' and 'ITunes Match'. All of these were already selected and I saw no other solutions presented.
This problem has now extended over to my IPad and even though both are connected to a data plan and they can connect other programs that require the internet when not connected via wi-fi the songs are greyed out on the phone and simply do not play on the iPad. The symbol that allows me to download the music instead of stream it that shows up on the phone does not appear on my iPad which leaves me stuck with no way of listening to my music on my ipad if I am not connected via wi-fi.
Can someone please tell me if the streaming ability was changed to only work if the connection was through wi-fi and not through data usage? If not and there is something I have overlooked/been unable to find within other threads can someone please specify what I can do to get it to play the music?

Spelling and grammar correctionsThanks guys, and yes, seems really weird. I hadnt merged contacts with iCloud (which is appearing to be far more trouble than its worth!) and I couldn't edit, add or delete contacts from my ipad, but as soon as I switched on this option in iCloud, they magically reappeared. I then turned it off again from mergeing with iCloud, and, for now at least, the option to edit remains!
Honestly, it really shouldn't be this difficult!
Thanks again. -
My apple desk top is no longer streaming to apple TV box, what can I do?
my apple desk top is no longer streaming to apple TV box, how can I trouble shoot this issue?
You can create a new account, but all of the purchases that you did on your existing account will remain tied to that account, so only that account can potentially redownload them, authorise them on a new computer's iTunes and download updates to its apps.
To reset the account's security questions and/or password, if you don't have access to the email account then contact Support in your country to get them reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset you can then update your primary email address and add a rescue email address for potential future use : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
Or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID -

Why can I no longer drag and drop in iMovie 11?
Why can I no longer drag and drop in iMovie 11? This means I can't select transitions, titles, or even move clips within the project. Never had this problem before.
Serious bugs in iM 11 with numerous lock-ups and crashes. I shouldn't have upgraded -- now I'm pulling out my hair trying to complete a video project with it.
Apple is losing their way. -
Why can I no longer use an image for my signature on forms? The only option I have now is "use a certificate". It was never like this until today.
Hi,
I had never heard of someone using the iPhone Number as the ID in the iMessages account in the Mac version.
i.e without adding an Apple ID
iMessages does allow iPhone numbers and mine lists mine.
I would try this.
Sign Out of the iMessages account and Quit Messages
On the iPhone in Settings > Messages remove the Apple ID
Set the iPhone to Airplane mode for a few minutes (to break with the Server)
On starting the phone up again check the iPhone Number is ticked for iMessages.
If it is add the Apple ID
On the Mac restart Messages
Add the Apple ID
At this point you should get a pop up or two saying the iPhone is using the Number and Apple ID.
Accept these and they get added to the Receive At list and Send From drop down.

Thanks for the reply Arthur. Actually, I just got off the phone with an apple rep telling me you can't downgrade, and that yes, apple actually IS forcing you to use iCloud - if, that is, you actually want to be able to sync your contacts or calendar. Apparently you are special and know something different, so please enlighten the rest of us.
Here is one way

Here is another

Here is yet another
If your Mavericks came with anything other than Mavericks pre-installed
OS X Mavericks: Revert to a previous OS X version
Also there are a host of other Cloud services you can use. You do not have to use iCloud at all. Although there ARE over 320+ million iCloud presently active, so it is extremely popular with users.

Why can I no longer copy and paste a whole page in page thumbnail?
Why can I no longer copy and paste a whole page in page thumbnail?
Apple has removed over 95 features in Pages 5.
It has also introduced multiple file formats that are incompatible with each over as well as everything else, and numerous bugs.
Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss) -

Try deleting the app and then reinstalling it. If that fails Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears. -

Why can I no longer sort songs by popularity?
Why can I no longer sort songs by popularity?
It seems this is a "backwards" upgrade from Apple in their iTunes 11 release....like you, I used to use that function in the iTunes store to sort through and decide which song version to purchase. (For a large returned list of songs...see all...then sort by any of the headers, including Popularity...this functionality is now gone.)
The iPad always suffered from this...was never able to sort on those same column headers with an iPad. It seems, this new iTunes release killed that functionality on the Mac as well.
Just one of the few things that went wrong with number 11!
Better luck next time, -

You already seem to know what the issue is, it is the parallax feature that was added to iOS 7. From your rant, it appears that your attempt to work around this was not successful. According to the Apple documents I've seen, they recommend that you enlarge your image (not reduce it). Make your image have excess space on all sides, which is not displayed on the screen. This way, when you tilt your device one direction or another, it can shift the image to give the appearance of 3D.
As a photographer, I like to use the full frame of my images, but I also know that I need to leave room around the image as well. I have some photos I have taken that I can't use because I have them cropped too tightly too, but I have others that work just fine. Just remember that part of the image file is "off screen" so that if iOS has to shift the image up it has some image that can scroll onto the screen. It needs this space on all sdes, so just make youre images larger, and keep in mind that a portion on each side will be outside the normally visible screen... If you don't like this feature, you can always go into the settigns and turn it off. -
