Cannot associate Apple remote for iMac

  1. I am trying to clear and then reselect an Apple Remote to my iMac 2011 El Capitan running. It used to work perfectly before El Capitan, but now it is not reliable.
  2. Apple support advised me to follow these instructions: preferences/security/general/advanced:
  3. (4) select "Turn off the remote control infrared receiver" to turn off IR reception, or deselect it to turn on IR reception.
  4. But I don't have this option more.

You will need to click the Advanced button. Then you will see the option.

    Hello

    I disabled my firewall and forwarded port 7682

    Even if the connection never seemed strong.

    If there is any other information I can give you please let me know.

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    OK, that's good info. This means that, from now on, Apache is not able to serve content outside your machine. This is why even the native browser can't see your site. As soon as we have this problem resolved, you should be able to see the edge site so inspected.

    Here are a few things to try:

    1. Maybe it's because your firewall is not blocking port 8888. Try temporarily disabling your firewall and see if http://192.168.2.4:8888/yogaFest2013/works from the native browser of your device
    2. Open a terminal window and type in the following: netstat - year | grep 'LISTEN' and let me know what he says
    3. Open your httpd.conf file and look for a section like this:

    #

    # Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or

    ports #, instead of the default value. See also the

    directive #.

    #

    # Change this to listen on specific IP addresses below for

    # prevent Apache glomming on all related IP addresses.

    #

    Listen 80

    Let me know what your of resembles.

  • You cannot associate computers with this Apple ID.

    Received the message "You cannot associate more computers that Apple ID" on my MacPro main, which is the main computer for all Apple devices.  But I used it this past weekend, so not sure what happened.  Just updated two phones for my children, and upgraded to the plan of the family music from Apple, would it be it? We have this MacPro, a MBPro, mine & wife & 3 phones & 3 iPads & 2 Apple TV children.  I logged on my iTunes account to "Manage devices" and a generic iPhone listed that does not have anyone there, but I can't remove it (the button is grayed out) - it just says: "iPhone (iPhone).  5 phones, 3 iPad and only the MB Pro are listed - the final spot is that the generic iPhone which I do not know what it is.  And now this MacPro is more listed.  Any suggestions?

    Environment: Community College, Microsoft DHCP 2012/DDNS network

    Question:

    After checking with file-> Refresh in ARD Admin and there are still agents machine correct without DNS:

    -Check in the list of the scanners of ARD Admin, if the machines of 18 or more are detected it with the correct DNS name.

  • Help on graphics card memory and upgrade for iMac

    Hello!

    I need advice on a good new graphics card for iMac 27 inch end 2012. My work is mainly in animation, Visual effects and game development soon, so I need an additional card to increase my speed.

    Currently, I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB card. Do you think I should stick to a similar card? Is there something new that will offer me better performance at an affordable cost?

    I don't have much money to spend, but I can certainly use additional graphics now.

    I have also 2 remaining memory locations that accepts DDR3 1600 MHz memory module, but it seems that this module is no longer available. If I had to choose between a graphics card and RAM, which should I go with?

    Finally, can I install these myself? I don't have any Apple Store around me and I do not trust the computer guys in my area.

    First of all, the iMacs are notoriously difficult to make something with except add RAM. Here is a good site where you can get some info on the dismantling, etc.:

    https://www.iFixit.com/

    Usually, graphics cards should be replaced with the same model/type of work (if any) - see above site for this kind of info. I'm quite sure that you cannot add just one - iMac is not designed for it.

    Regarding the RAM, just check out OWC for necessary RAM:

    https://eShop.MacSales.com/shop/memory/iMac/2012_27/DDR3L

    Check that your model is listed. I don't know where you would have been told that the RAM is no longer available (FWIW, Apple does not sell RAM and uses of third party RAM in the new Macs).

    I'd go with the RAM - how many do you have now? Adding RAM is easy.

  • FTP - cannot create the remote folder

    Help, please!

    I use DW 8 on iMac. When you download my site (using sync or put), all two used to work properly, I now meet the following error message and then I hunted:

    "error - cannot create the remote folder / folder name and the path--canceled by the user.

    I thought that the file may be corrupted somehow and removed completely from the site. On my next attempt, another file has triggered the same message, and so on...

    So I am unable to download my site and the bits and pieces that are on the web are truncated because the site is incomplete!

    What can I do?

    You may find it useful to stick with the DW FTP. Having the ability to
    Download up/dependent files is nice, as are the other (select features
    more recent, select recently modified, etc.).

  • Why is my Apple remote desktop not send software upgrades as it should?

    Apple Remote Desktop Help?

    In apple remote desktop there is command-line unix where I can send the command softwareupdate - install - all, and I do as user root on an administrator account. My problem arises when I send the software update and ARD never Specifies if yes or no updates have been installed successfully, it just says: Update software tool. I know that it is not to install the update either, because when I look at computers I see pending updates. I'm new to the apple support and appreciate any help in this matter. Thank you

    have you tried:

    Send the command as root

    the "softwareupdate d-i - a" command?

    Try issuing the command to one computer at a time. If you issue it to 100 computers. Your network can choke on the bandwidth required to download all the updates to those. Keep in mind that softwareupdate is for upgrades of the OS; It will not install the updates of pages or other app store apps.

    If the command works, you'll probably want to restart the computer. If everything is working properly.

  • Apple remote activated iTunes on my computer while I'm sailing in Apple TV

    Apple remote activated iTunes on my computer while I'm sailing in Apple TV

    So when I try to navigate the Apple TV using my apple remote, my computer meets her while she sleeps, and the screen is closed. Is it possible that I can get the computer stops responding to the remote control? It is very inconvenient when we try to watch a movie on the Apple TV and iTunes started playing on the background, it will even through the playlist when we advance and rewind. It actually starts iTunes, even if she leave beforehand.

    I think you need to pair the remote with ATV. The problem is that your computer is done to meet the same codes on remote Apple as ATV. For operating instructions, see get help with your remote Apple Remote - Apple Support .

  • 2x8Gb 2x4gb upgrade for iMac vs 2 x 4 GB

    Hello

    I want to upgrade my iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2015), add more RAM.  Since it is a bit expensive for me to go full 32 GB upgrade atm, I'm trying to decide the configuration of the DIMM modules to fill in the blanks.  I kind of want to go to 24 GB be sure, but I'm not sure this is a solution of zero downside.  Search Google on the subject was rather confusing for me and advice to support Apple (' go for 2 x 4 GB, to make sure [a few shoo-shoo techniques] ") was the opposite of what the service recommended by them Center offered me ("go to 2x8GB, its fine totally"), where my question:

    Y at - it nothing wrong with adding 2x8Gb DIMM to 2x4gb existing over configuration 4x4Gb?  What is it precisely?

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Long as you order the correct RAM also there is no mixture 2x8GB with 2 x 4 GB problem.

  • Apple Remote Desktop tries to connect to some weird areas

    Firefox and osx elcapitan 10.11.4 15E65

    It's so weird that lately my ARD tried to connect to areas randomly I searched on the web. Little Snitch reports she's trying to connect to 'gist.github' and the other day he tried to goto "krampus".  As I said it's strange behavior since it's the kind of thing I entered in google.

    All advice is appreciated.

    I would be a little surprised if Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) have been connecting the specified web sites, you can post what Little Snitch reports as the source and the destination of the connection?  Also please post what version of Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) are you using?   3.8 (A 380, 95) is in course, at last I checked.

    My general recommendation is to remove Little Snitch - this is a great tool, but it also tends to cause problems when network connections are blocked by mistake, and it's certainly excellent fodder for causing paranoia.

    Adware and malware can cause this, but - if you connect to these sites and don't have adware or malware or any sort of anti-virus or anti-malware, or other similar types of tools tools additional loading - I guess it's OS X hides a tile or such.

    Here is a previous related discussion - even if it is not of the ARD.
