• Previously available to Apple Watch case-band associations

  Hello world

  I bought a Apple Watch of a webshop of part 3; It will be delivered to me on Sunday. The description says "42mm stainless steel with loop Milanese space black."

  After a while, I thought I would ask them better on the color of the "Milanese Loop". They said this isn't the black space, it's quite simply the "inox milanese loop." Now my question is this: apple does, or did he ever, ship such a combination "out of the box"?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I am not aware of this combination of case and the band having already been sold by Apple as a preconfigured combination.

• My locked Apple Watch E-mail of the first owner

  I have Apple Watch of my friends, but he forgat to unlocked the Apple Watch, so it uses only apple not more. And now I can't have my iphone at Apple Watch matching. How to solve this problem? Anyone has the same problem with me?  Thank you

  Saputra_andi Hey!

  Looks like Apple Watch your friend's locked to her iCloud account activation.

  Since you said that your friend uses no more than Apple, I guess it was more his old iPhone either. So, here is what you can have him follow these steps;

  1. On a computer, go to iCloud.com.
  2. Sign in with your Apple ID and open settings.
  3. Under my devices, click on your Apple Watch.
  4. Click on next to your device.
  5. Click on delete to confirm.

  These measures directly on the Apple support site.

  Please let me know if it helps!

• Need to backup my Apple Watch, I don't want to reset

  I have a new iPhone. My previous iPhone died from water damage. My latest backup did not include data from health or regarding my Apple Watch. If I try to pair my Apple Watch to my new iPhone, it seems I have to reset the watch and lose all my data (15 months)! I really don't want to lose my data and training, as well as the health of my Apple Watch, but now I can't pair it with my iPhone.

  What can I do?

  Hello

  I'm afraid there is nothing you can do.

  Historical data of health and activity are stored on your iPhone paired, not on the watch.

  If you do not have a backup of your previous iPhone (from which to restore your new iPhone), you can retrieve no historical data.

  You will need to erase content and settings on your watch and pair it with your new iPhone:

  • On your watch: go to the home screen (via a simple press on the digital Crown) > (cog icon) settings > general > reset > erase content and settings.
  • Then pair your watch to your new iPhone: configure your Apple Watch - Apple Support

• Apple Watch unlock Mac does not

  I have a first generation of Apple Watch and a spring 2015 MacBook Pro, which I just installed Sierra. When I tried to enable to release the Mac with Apple Watch he didn't even after a number of tests, but eventually he agreed.

  Now, however, I believe that if I leave my MacBook for a few minutes and come back, it will say that the Apple Watch unlocks the Mac, the small waiting wheel goes around and around, but after maybe 8 or 9 seconds it drops just go back to the password entry screen. The net result is a considerable delay to return on the MacBook. After this happened a few times, I have disabled unlocking with the Apple Watch in the preferences.

  Any ideas why this happens? Normally, my iPhone is also nearby and the watch is associated with it - does make a difference?

  Do you have any Bluetooth device that is connected to your Mac? I had the same problems with the feature to unlock, then I noticed that the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar show he was matched (three points through the center of the symbol) even if I had nothing paired with my laptop. I open Bluetooth preferences and delete the two devices which are listed and which had been previously connected, but were not currently connected. After the removal of these items, the Bluetooth symbol returns to its normal look unpaired, and the release device started working 100%.

  I then tried to experiment a little. First of all, I have associated my Bose speakers. 100% failure, required my password every time. Then, I have not matched the speaker and paired with an Apple Magic mouse. This gave rise to a rate of 50% of failure but still worked when I clicked on cancel, then tried recording in. I have not tried any other devices or multiple as a mouse and a keyboard.

• Apple Watch scratched screen

  I got my Apple Watch since Christmas and I love it.  Recently, I noticed a scratch on the screen.  Not sure how it happened.  It does not interfere with something else and shows only when light hits a certain way, but it's boring.  I kept thinking this is a task, but when it doesn't come off, I saw that it was a scratch.  I have a first generation 38mm sports watch rose gold.  Is there a way to replace the screen?
