WIFI Sharing no longer an option??

I was using WIFI sharing to connect my phone to my laptop for doubleTwist syncing. After i completed my tasks, i simply shut the lid of my MBP and went on with my evening. This morning, internet sharing through WIFI was no longer and option. It only lists Ethernet, Bluetooth PAN and FireWire. WIFI isn't on the list. I've tried disabling, re-enabling the wifi chip and a full restart and still the option is missing. What am I doing wrong??

It's a 'feature' of the current version of iTunes, and it affects other content as well e.g. music albums. If you log out of your account on your computer's iTunes (e.g. via the Store > Sign Out menu option) you should then get the gift option on the app - you will then be prompted to sign back in as part of the gifting process.

  • Home sharing no longer shows up on my macbook pro iTunes.

    Home sharing no longer shows up on my macbook pro iTunes. Our main computer is a Dell desktop that is authorized for home sharing. My macbook has also turned on home sharing, but the home computer does not show up. How exactly does home sharing work? Must you be in the same area to be able to use this feature or connected to the same network?

    you will need both computer have itunes turned on and you will need a wifi for them to work.

  • IOS 7.1 update problem. Wifi disabled, no longer works. Disappointed with apple response

    I have several IOS devices and updated each of them to Apple's release of IOS 7.1.
    Unfortunately my iPhone 4s did not update successfully. It was affected by the widely reported issue regarding WiFi being disabled permanently. After the update to IOS 7.1, wifi is no longer an accessible option on the IPhone 4s.
    After doing some online research and identifying this as a common problem, I tried some of the suggestions available online such as resetting settings and restoring from backup. None of these suggestions worked.
    I brought the iPhone 4s to the apple store at the Rideau Center in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and spoke to one of the employees. He stated that it was not an apple issue and that it was a problem with my phone that would cost $200 to resolve. He said that it was not a problem related to the ios 7.1 update and that it was a "coincidence" that it happened at the same time as the update to ios 7. 1 and was probably an issue with the wifi chip.
    It is surprising to me that applying an update recommended by apple and using the iPhone 4s in the manner in which it was designed (using wifi) would cause this basic function (wifi) to cease to function.
    Wifi is an essential part of my day to day use of this device. I am appalled that apple is denying the problem and has no resolution for it.
    If anyone else this problem, please go to your nearest apple store and let this forum know your experience in getting the issue resolved.

    Somewhere in there, is there a question for us, your fellow users in these user to user support forums?

  • Adobe XI send for shared review is missing option for Adobe online services, where did it go?

    I am using Adobe XI and trying to share a PDF file using Comments --> Review ---> Send for Shared Review.  The option to share via Adobe Online Services is missing.  What is causing this and how do I get that option back? I am working on a Mac in Safari. Screen shot below:

    With Acrobat Pro 11.0.06 I have send more 188 files for shared review with deadline in June.
    After the update (automatically in May) to 11.0.07 Monday June, 2 became a cold shower to me:
    1) to start a new Acrobat.com-based shared review was not possible anymore
    2) tracking of my 188 reviews was not possible anymore, "no active reviews" = empty tracking list !!
    My temporary solution: uninstall 11.0.07 and reinstall 11.0.00 with NO automatic updating: stop updating at version 11.0.06.
    Result: the tracking list is filled with all items.
    Earlier this year Adobe announced end of life of Acrobat.com-based shared reviews at the end of this year 2014.
    My question to Adobe: how long is this type of shared review supported ?
    My complete workflows are based on it.

This has been an issue since installing new IOS! How long will it take apple to come up with a fix. My carrier offered me an early upgarde at a massively inflated monthly cost (how kind of them!).

  • In Pages I used to be able to edit a template and "save a version" to update the template. Now i have to rename the template to save the changes. Why is this happening? what happen to "save a version"? its no longer an option under "file".

    In Pages, In the past, I was able to edit a template and "save a version" to update the template. Now i have to rename the template to save the changes. Why is this happening? what happen to "save a version"? its no longer an option under "file". And I can no longer open the actual template, when template is clicked, it automaticaly opens an "untitled" version???

    In your description you say the first document opens as the Title you gave it.
    Templates always open as Untitled so it sounds like you have saved a regular document, perhaps into your templates folder which is possible.
    Since you have already worked on it and it has been previously saved, Lion will now Save for you and Save a Version is available
    The other document does open as Untitled so sounds like a real template and as Peggy has pointed out will not have either Revert nor Save a Version until you Save it and have changed something in it.
    This is a classic example of just how Apple's supposedly "simplification" of the process, is leading to confusion of what has happened. That the conditions and resulting actions from those conditions is so convoluted says it all.
    It all reminds me of the Monty Python Life of Brian sketch with the "simplified" John Cleese instructions to the class, as to if you have a brother in an older dorm whether to hang your hat and bag on the hooks provided. The trouble is Apple does not get the joke, that it is transforming itself into a frequently self contradictory bumbling bureacracy. The price of unchallenged self appointed geniushood.
    The incoherent half baked stumbling juggernaut has reached new triumphs with its edict on enforced Sandboxing on developers when it is unable to follow even its own instructions.

  • Internet sharing no longer works after Lion 10.7.4 update

    Internet sharing no longer works after Lion 10.7.4 update. Hopefully Apple will fix this shortly. Little excuse for this kind of screw-up.

    so here is da answer
    1. go to finder>(computer name)>macintosh HD>library>preferences
    2. copy the entire systemconfiguration folder and systemconfiguration.old folder to your desktop
    3. restart mac and device which you share intenet to
    then you have internet that is about 3x slower than the da 10.7.3 intenet sharing, but works
    then, just wait for apple to release da 10.7.4 fixed
    please use da steps!

  • Home Sharing no longer works in 10.1

    There seems to be a few posts about this but nothing that answers the issue. I had Home Sharing working with 10.0 with my iPhone, iPad and Apple TV v2. Since the update the sharing no longer works and I can't connect any of the devices to iTunes 10.1 to share the library.
    I have deauthorised each of the devices with no luck, the share seems to appear in iTunes when I first connect, click on 'Done' and it disappears.
    This seems to be a problem with 10.1 but is incredibly frustrating as my Apple TV is now pretty much redundant without this functionality.
    Anyone else seen this and fixed it under Windows 7?
    Thanks
    Neil

  • Bonjour no longer an option

    Hi there,
    This morning I received a new cable modem from Shaw, my ISP. Since I received the new modem, though, I've had great difficulties with what once was a problem-free setup.
    My cable modem is plugged into a D-Link Ethernet switch. Both my Airport Express and my G5 are then plugged into the switch. I have a Canon printer plugged into the Airport Express, and I use the Airport Express to access the internet with my MacBook Pro.
    Before I received the new modem, I had been able to easily transfer files and print from both computers to the Airport Express-connected printer. However, with the new modem, I now have to have the Airport Express set to distribute IP addresses in other for it to connect to the internet. As a result, I can no longer easily connect my machines or print from the G5 via Bonjour. If I disable 'Distribute IP addresses' then I can once again print and share files, but not access the internet with my laptop.
    Does anyone have any idea what the solution might be?
    Thanks!

    Is the G5 wireless?
    If not I suspect that you were drawing two IP addresses from your ISP and this is now no longer an option.
    You need to ensure that your cable modem is connected to a router, to which you can then share the single IP address from your ISP with the multiple devices on your network.
    Your Airport Express can be configured as a router, but as you have found no way of connecting wired clients.
    Either get a router with two LAN ports or make the G5 wireless.

  • File sharing no longer working under Lion

    File Sharing no longer works on our household macs running Lion. Shared volumes show up intermittedly in the finder sidebar. But connections fail.

    for what it's worth, i too am experiencing this issue and it is driving me insane... Any chance you two came across a workaround or fix?
    i've discovered that clicking on "AirDrop" on the shared Mac seems to awaken the shared services (screen sharing, file sharing etc.) and make them available on networked devices.
    i'm beginning to suspect that Bonjour may be the culprit as services advertised using Bonjour suddenly spring to life.
    it's short-lived unfortunately as availability eventually ceases... Clicking again on AirDrop reliably brings it back...
    That's where I am currently... if anybody has any ideas, I'd love to hear them.

  • Home Sharing no longer recognized

    Home sharing no longer working on ATV since I swithed to a new iMac. Never had issues with the previous iMac. I've done everything mentioned on sites, including power cycling all devices, checking firewalls, updating software, etc.  I have repeatedly turned it off and on in iTunes with proper password/username.  Yet my ATV keeps asking me to turn it on in iTunes and does not see it.

  • Apple TV Home Sharing no longer working

    I have a friend who is looking for help  Here is his problem:
    "I've had the 2nd generation Apple TV since October when it was released and it has worked fine until I recently changed my Apple User Name (email address). After changing my user name my Apple TV and iPhone 4 no longer find my shared network and home sharing no longer works. Home sharing is enabled on all devices, including my Sony Vaio Laptop, iPhone4, and Apple TV 2nd generation. Everything else has remained constant, including service provider, router, modem, and internet security (Trend Micro). Also, my library is on a networked hard drive, which didn’t seem to make a difference before, but I figured I'd mention it."
    The problem began when he changed his Apple User Name.  After he changed his name, home sharing no longer works even though he also changed it on all his devices to match the new Apple User Name.
    How does he get Home Sharing working again. Has anyone run into this same problem?
    Thanks in advance

    Winston,
    Thank you for the information.  He confirmed that the ID and password are the same on every device.  This only started happending when he changed his User Name with Apple. 
    --Itunes is running on a Windows Vista Machine (Sony Vaio)
    --He has an Apple TV (2nd Gen)
    --He has an iPhone 4
    Can you tell me more about the technologies that apple uses to make "homesharing" work?  Do you think he may need to remove then re-install Bonjour?
