Why can't I connect to Apple TV(2) from my MacBookPro, when I can easily do it from my iPad? I want to be able to watch a movie from my MacBookPro desktop on my TV using Apple TV.

    All those apps are free. Read my first reply, because it is nothing to be worried about.
    If you do not get the money refunded, contact with iTunes Store support > http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact

    You can exchange for an out of warranty exchange iPhone 4 at a price of $149 in US
    you get an as new iPhone 4 and the Apple genius bar take your "bits"
    Apple are about to offer a trade in programme in the US but I believe the donor iPhone must be in full working order to qualify

  • HT1296 I downloaded an album from i Tunes to my i Phone 4 but somehow all but two of the tracks have deleted themselves from there. When I try to synch again (from a Windows pc) I can't upload the missing tracks again. they are playable from the PC but no

    I downloaded an album from i Tunes to my i Phone 4 but somehow all but two of the tracks have deleted themselves from there. When I try to synch again (from a Windows PC) I can't upload the missing tracks again. They are playable from the PC but not the i Phone. Any ideas?

    You may have to sync all your music off your phone (by unchecking Sync Music on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing), then sync it back on to fix this.

  • I am trying to update to iTunes 10 to us my new iPad, but I can not remove a corrupted "apple software update" program... I can get everything else off, but due to "previous version" of software update it will not continue.

    I am trying to update to iTunes 10 to us my new iPad, but I can not remove a corrupted? "apple software update" program... I can get everything else off, but due to "previous version" of software update it will not continue.
    I stopped in to see one of the genius at the local store who referred me to "Windows Installer 4.5 Redistributable" (I am trying to install it on a Windows XP System)
    The last version on iTunes on my PC was iTunes 7.
    Thanks for your help,

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has 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 Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing 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.)

  • HT204053 How can i delete the old apple id from my phone when i can no longer log in?

    I changed my internet provider and address. I then changed my apple id to coincide with my new address and deleted my old address. My phone did not update to the new address. I can't change the details on my phone in settings because i can't access the internet. i tried to delete the account but i can't do that with out logging in.
    How can i update the apple id on my phone when i can't log into it?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • Why doesn't my iMac tell me what is being down loaded when I can see that my modem is downloading something

    why doesn't my imac tell me what is being dowloaded when i can see that my modem is downloading something?

    There are many reasons for the activity light on your cable or DSL modem to be flashing. Your Mac could be checking for or downloading updates in the background. It could be checking e-mail. It could be syncing a cloud service like iCloud, Dropbox, etc.
    If your Mac isn't the only thing on the network, then the light could be flashing due to some other device on the network downloading an update, syncing something, etc.
    And, of course, it's always possible your network is under attack by an automated botnet or something. You'd be surprised how often a device exposed to the internet directly - as a modem like this is - will be hit with attempted attacks, in an attempt to find things that are vulnerable.

  • HT1430 For some unknown reason my Apple ID password does not work when trying to down load books from the IBook or Nook Apps.  It also has stop work when trying to down load new Apps.  Any suggestions out their???

    For some unknown reason, my Apple ID Password does not work when trying to down load IBooks, Nook books, or new Apps.  Everything else seems to work.  Any suggestions out their???

    I appreciate the info and realize that the Nook App is not related to my Apple account but this too has stopped working.  My situation first started with the Nook App not down loading and then has now spread to my IBook and new app downloads.  I have checked into my ITunes account and the ID and password are correct  and at times when I am asked to submit my Apple password such as setting up this Apple Support Community the ID and password work.  My problem seems to be just with trying to use my ID and password when wanting to download new books or apps.  I can go into the IBook, Nook, and App stores and seemingly download an item but when clicking on the new book or app nothing happens and I get a message that states it can not get into the ITunes store and it wants me to either try again or cancel.  This message appears usually ten minutes after I have tried to make a purchase.  At other times when I attempt to download a book or app I lose the screen and the IPad goes into the opening screen.  Short of redoing my Apple account or deleting an app and attempting to reload the app (but this won't work because the App store won't load new apps) I don't have a clue what to do.

  • Why is OS X connecting to apple on multiple port numbers?

    My router is reporting that at random times, the IP addess of my airport on my imac is trying to connect to an IP address (which seems to belong to Apple - 17.172.208.43) on multiple sequential ports.
    Didnt do this before Mavericks. What could be causing this?

    Thanks, According to the list it relates to Back To My Mac, however pre Mavericks there was no such notifications from my router as currently it is causing multiple Denial of Service notification emails.
    Ports, 51864, 51865, 51866, 51867, 51868 etc…
    The internal IP address being used is the one for wifi, Why would it only occur on the wireless side? The machine is also on ethernet with a different IP.

  • Can Aperture 3 Connect to Apple TV (Version 2)

    Hey Guys,
    I was just wondering wether Aperture 3 could connect wirelessly to the Apple TV V2 in the same way iphoto does (Slideshows etc.)?
    I have had a look around but couldn't find how.
    Thanks in Advance

    In iTunes help do a search for "Apple TV" then look at "Play items in your iTunes library using Apple TV (2nd generation)".
