  Hello pgirardi,

  I appreciate that you try to unlock your two computers using your Apple Watch with watch OS 3.  The resources below provide the steps and requirements to do this.  I would just try it with a single computer until you have a job before trying the second computer.

  Automatically unlock your Mac with your Apple Watch
  
  

  The first time you open a session after you turn on or restart your Mac, connect by entering your password manually. After that, Apple Watch connects to you.

  Set up automatic unlock

  Make sure your Apple Watch uses watch OS 3, and your Mac to mid-2013 or newer model uses macOS Sierra.
  For more information, see system requirements of continuity.

  Automatic unlocking

  Automatic unlock works with these devices and operating systems:

  watchOS 3	macOS Sierra
  Apple Watch (1st generation) Apple Watch series 1 Apple Watch series 2	MacBook (early 2015 or newer) MacBook Pro (late 2013 or newer) MacBook Air (mid-2013 or newer) Mac mini (late 2014 or newer) iMac (late 2013 or newer) Mac Pro (end of 2013 or later)

  Make sure your Apple ID to use instead of the two-step verification two factor authentication. Learn more.

  Make sure that your devices are configured as follows:

  • Your Mac has Bluetooth and Wi - Fi enabled.
  • Your Mac and Apple Watch are connected to iCloud with the same Apple ID.
    On your Mac, choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, and then click iCloud.
    On your iPhone, open the Apple Watch app, then go to general > Apple ID.
  • Your Apple Watch uses a password.
    On your iPhone, open the Apple Watch app, then type the access code.
  • Your Mac has "allow your Apple Watch unlock your Mac" selected in Security & Privacy preferences.
    Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click on Privacy & Security, then select the general tab.

    

  pgirardi, if you are unable to unlock your main computer after trying these steps, then you will need to cancel the match your iPhone and Apple Watch and try again.

  Cancel the match your iPhone and Apple Watch

  Take care.

• Apple Watch quick game launch, but never plays music

  I have a Apple Watch combined with an iPhone 6.  All software updates for watch OS and iOS are installed.  I also have an active subscription to Apple's music.

  When I type on Quick Play on the watch, he started but he never plays music.  I tap on the play symbol and it turns the pause symbol as it is to start playing, but it goes back to the symbol of game.  Also, when I press play on the watch symbol, I can see a tab for Quick Play pop up on the iPhone music app, but it disappears after a second.

  I tried the following, and no correction this problem:

  • Erase content and watch settings.
  • Reset the data synchronization on the watch.
  • Erase content and settings on the iPhone.
  • Synchronize the watch to another iPhone (5 s).

  I don't know if this is a problem with the watch or music on the iPhone app. I suspect it is a problem with the iOS App music since this problem occurs even when I paired my watch to my other iPhone.

  Everything else works like bat 1, my music and Playlists (I see that the watch as I have in the music library of iCloud).  This problem is only with Quick Play.

  I just bought the Apple Watch 2 days and I don't think what the exchanged will solve this problem since it seems to be a software problem.  I Googled that everywhere and I have not found an article or a discussion with the same problem that I am experiencing.  I have a ticket open with Apple Support and she was refitted to the genius, but I can hardly believe I'm first since Apple Watch is out for quite awhile.

  Does anyone have any ideas?  Thank you!

  I have the same problem with my iPhone since the latest iOS updates and watch OS 5. It worked fine before.

• can I use Siri while Apple Watch is in mode of bedside table?

  Currently I have a led clock that projects the time on the Ceiling so that I don't have to look around to see what time it is, if I wake up early by mistake.  now that I have a Apple Watch mode night next to my bed stand, it would be cool to number ' Hey Siri, what time is "and get the time without opening my eyes!

  Is this possible? Apple Watch locks when it is not on my arm. Siri doesn't seem to be working while it is locked

  Hello

  No, it is not currently possible to use "Hey Siri" while Apple Watch is in bedside Mode (or Siri can be used in this mode by pressing the digital Crown).

  If you want to suggest that Apple consider adding support for Siri in Mode bedside table as a new feature, you can do so here:

• Apple Watch 2 guard locking

  My watch keeps locking with evert wrist movement.  I'm just not matched and repaired my watch and it works properly now.  When I called Apple the suggested I bring it to the Apple store as an end that any difficulty.  Not really interested by spending as much time, but if I have to.  All the world experienced this and found a solution?

  Hello

  With wrist detection and active access code, make sure you wear your watch sufficiently well adjusted. If it is worn without too much shake, your watch may believe that he had been removed from your wrist, leading to this lock automatically:

  

  Performance of the sensor can also be affected by temporary or permanent changes on your skin, such as certain wrist tattoos.

• Establishment of an iPad after having been locked out but did not recall what is my Apple ID or password.

  Basically, I'm trying to help my sister in law with his iPad. She had initially forgotten its password to enter his iPad and if she got locked out. I googled how to reset and so I have connected the iPad to a laptop and went through iTunes (without signature). Now that the iPad has been swept clean it is now the scene of reactivating...

  I typed in the country, wifi etc and now he asks the Apple ID and password that was used to set up the iPad initially that she can't remember. She does not know what email address she used and she forgot her password. I searched for centuries now what can someone help!

  Is still connected to the account anywhere so that she can get him? Or she has none of the downloads of the account in the computer's iTunes library so that it can do "get info" on them and see the id? If not already tried it: If you have forgotten your Apple - Apple Support ID ?

  If she can still find, and she was the original purchaser of the iPad (i.e. he not was purchased used), she might try to go to an Apple Store (it should take an appointment-Genius Bar if she does) or try to contact iTunes Support Online (https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html) and see if they can remove the iPad on the account - they are likely to want to see proof of ownership before they could help for example an original receipt with the serial number above

• My locks of Apple Watch every time that the screen turns off.

  From the past week, whenever my screen goes black on the Apple Watch, it crashes. Whenever I want to check messages, use siri or do anything outside the eye at the moment, so I have to unlock it with my access code. It's pretty boring.

  Hello

  Check your settings.

  • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: My Watch (tab) > General > enable the detection of wrist.
  • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: Watch My > General > screen Wake > turn the Wake screen on wrist lift.

  Also, make sure you wear your watch sufficiently well adjusted. If worn too loosely, your watch may believe that he had been removed from your wrist. With access code also allowed, it would then automatically locks. Performance of the sensor can also be affected by temporary changes or permanent on your skin, such as certain wrist tattoos.

  

  If you have not already done so, it can help to upgrade your iPhone and look at the latest version of the software, from your iPhone:
