Why doesn't my imac turn on when I turn on Apple TV?

Why doesn’t my imac turn on when I turn on Apple TV?

Yes, otherwise some people might have to walk up to the third floor and turn on iMac,
and then go back down to living room in order to stream form iTunes. My iMac is close,
but not in same room. There must be something I don't have set up right.

  • 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.

  • I just replaced my hard drive on my imac and now when i turn the computer on the fan is running and slowly gets louder and louder. how do i turn it off?

    I just replace my hard drive on my imac and now when i turn the computer on the fan starts running and keeps getting louder. How do i turn it off?
    thanks.

    If your machine was made after 2009 you probably installed th wrong HD. Beginning in 2009 Apple began using HD's that had an integrated fan sensor. If you did not use one of these drives then that is the problem. You should contact OWC (www.macsales.com) or visit your local AASP and they will help you select the correct HD to use.

  • Why doesn't Aperture rembmer thumbnail size when turning on/off viewer?

    I noticed that when I turn on/off the viewer by pressing V, the thumbnail in the browser will go back to the smallest size. Do I have a corrupted preference file or something like that?
    Am I the only one experiencing this annoying behavior?
    Thanks for any input.

    Thanks for these suggestions.
    I have added the sites to the trusted sites in IE and that didn't help.
    Things are a bit more complicated with the global security settings of the flash player. When I click your link, I see the note (Note: The Settings Manager that you see above is not an image; it is the actual Settings Manager itself.), but no settings manager, so I cannot click any tabs. I can rightclick to go to global settings, but I can find no global security settings. A complicating factor is that I'm located in Poland and even though the installer correctly notes that I'm running an English language Windows system, it will only install flash player in Polish - and translations are usually not so good. So I have an "advanced" tab in the settings manager and I added my secure sites to the trusted sites, even though it says this is for programmers only. Anyway - this didn't help either.
    Please help, as this problem has cut me off from my bank account!

  • Why dose my iPod turn white when I turn it on?

    My iPod touch is not working correctly. When I turn it on it goes to the apple like it is soposed to but then goes to a whole white page. Why dose that happened?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why does excel, word and mail open when I turn on my Mac?

    When I start my Mac Pro, excel, word and mail open.  Can this be stopped?

    First of all, open the Apple menu (at the top left of the screen) > About this Mac, and tell me what OS X version you have.
    If it's 10.7 or 10.8, check that all of those applications are closed when you turn off the computer. OS X Lion and Mountain Lion reopen the apps that were opened in the next startup. To disable this, just go to the Apple menu > Shut Down, untick "Reopen windows when logging back in", and turn off your computer, so they shouldn't open again

    At first I was not sure what you were asking. After looking more closely, I think I can answer your question.
    First of all, you need to initialize your shift register. This is the array of Boolean results. The first time through it works OK, but subsequent runs are also added on instead of replacing the results, even though you used a local to "clear" the array first.
    You are adding 2 to the iterations and indexing on the new number. This is a so that you skip the first two "bad" values. Therefore, you only have 13 data points and should only be running the FOR loop 13 times. Change the FOR loop count constant to 13 (or get the array size and subtract 2 and wire it in if the number of tests is variable).
    Also, there is an 'In Range a
    nd Coerce' node that will perform the two tests and the AND all in one node. This was not an error, of course, but it does make it a bit easier to read.

  • Why does caps lock light remains on when I turn off my macbook pro?

    I had a problem recently come up with my MacBook Pro Early 2011 15 inch 2.0 ghz computer. The the caps lock light initiates at boot up. When I depress caps lock the light goes off but then only allows capital letters.  All sybols associtated with depressing the cap button such as the "at" sign are screwed up.  When I turn my computer off with safe mag attached, the caps light remains on. When I remove the safe mag, the caps light goes off.  Any clues as to what is going on?
    Thank you for your inputs ahead of time.
