How to use apple tv as plate rotating homekit?

I use bulbs Philips dyed with HomeKit successfully with our iPhones and iPads (even had the ability to use the iPad as a hub). However, for the life of me I can't configure HomeKit with our gen 4 Apple TV. I'm connected with my identifier Apple and iTunes and everything. However, the HomeKit option in the settings menu do not appear anywhere! What I am doing wrong? I tried to connect the Apple TV through Wi - Fi and ethernet. Everything works fine except that I can't seem to install Apple TV as a hub HomeKit.

The setting for HomeKit appears, under settings > accounts > iCloud. You should see a section called "HOMEKIT" and underneath, you should see the name of your House HomeKit, as indicated on your iPhone or iPad, and on the far right who it will say if the Apple TV is connected or not.

As much as the Apple TV, acting as a hub, its only function on HomeKit is also to allow access remotely to your HomeKit accessories while you are away from home.

  • someone has any idea how to get Apple to allow apps that EFFECTIVELY controls the use of the children?

    I'm just frustrated.

    I have a child of 12 years and a house full of i-products.   The problem arises because I want to allow him to use a planning application and some other apps education during school time, but not the games and the wifi and so on.     We got the House and I would continue to allow the use of the i-device to school, but it doesn't seem to be an app that will enough allow me to the things of the lock upwards.    I don't have the time to constantly monitor, it's ridiculous.

    Sometimes there are ideas as to the allow him to use educational applications and its music from itunes, but not anything about wifi, or any other games or Web sites.    There are other times where I'd like it to be allowed to use iMessage and not much else.

    The problem is that there is something out there that allows this level of control.    Apple has rolled out their "our Pact" that does not come close, but it's a start.     And no other control parental app or program allows control level "app." they will allow you to lock all applications (which are not integrated in the iOS) or not, but I can not choose.     Restrictions are unnecessary and won't allow me to lock the wifi or not to allow the addition of new locations of wifi.

    It's to the point that they I need to new devices, I'll phase out home iOS devices, unless I can get a control.

    Someone at - it a have a way around this?    Someone has any idea how to get Apple to listen to?

    For an application to the time-, you can use guided access

  • Using Apple Watch - how do I constantly monitor my heart rate during exercise

    Using Apple Watch - how do I constantly monitor my heart rate during a workout?

    Your heart rate. What it means, and where on Apple Watch you will find. -Apple Support

    According to this link, it should be available - but I can't find it on my Apple Watch?

    Is there a setting that needs to be enabled on it somewhere? The only place where I can see the heart rate is in the menu looks and there are only a few seconds? and takes awhile to show the heart rate.

    Hello

    When you save a workout using integrated workout app, your heart rate will be measured continuously throughout the workout. During training, you can also choose what primary metric is shown on your dial, with choices including heart rate. At the end of the workout, the results include the heart rate data. Training sessions are also recorded in the implementation of the activity on your iPhone.

    During the workout, to change the main metric indicated on the dial of the watch, slide on the side on this subject. Depending on your type of activity, the choice may include: time, active calories, total calories, heart rate, rhythm, speed and distance.

    More information:

    Use of the workout on your Apple Watch - Apple Support

    Use the activity on your Apple Watch - Apple Support

    Health and fitness data from other sources, iPhone, and Apple Watch are also aggregated within the health on iPhone app. Combined data is reflected in the application of health dashboard, which adjusts the results to avoid any double counting of data from different sources.

    To see Apple Watch heart rate data and other sources (for example a Bluetooth chest monitor strap):

    -On your iPhone, in the application of health (icon has a red heart on a white background), go to: data on health (tab) > Vitals > heart rate.

    Data are displayed in graphical form (this can be added to the application of Health Dashboard by activating the setting here) as well as individual data points (via display all data).

  • How to use Lightroom with Photos Apple?

    I just purchased Lightroom CC and I can't find my photos I use Apple Photos app to store them all. I have a mixture of photos from the iPhone as well as high quality JPEG files and my Nikon RAW files. I use pictures to import what I use and pay for icloud, so I can access all my photos on my iPhone and iPad and my MacBook. I also save them automatically to Dropbox.

    I've got about 2200 photos to about 28 GB. Do I need to transfer all out of Photos Apple? I am very confused on how to proceed.

    Rob

    First of all, you don't want to use BOTH at the same time, it is because the programs don't speak to another, and so whatever you do in one program is unknown to the other program. Basically, it would be twice as much work, but not twice the advantage and also opens the possibility of creating confusion.

    You want to choose a program and use it as your software "organize" and also as your software to 'change '. Which one you choose is up to you.

    To transfer photos to Photos in Lightroom, you need to export your images of Photos to a location on the hard drive and then then import them into Lightoom.

  • How to use FaceTime with Siri

    I you would Siri have been able to dial phone numbers using FaceTime, so my question is, is it possible? And if so, how?

    Hey MichaelnAvallone,

    Thank you for reaching out to help through Apple Support communities. Looks like you are wanting to make calls FaceTime with Siri. If so, I'd be happy to explain how to make this happen. First, you'll want to press on and hold the Home button or say "Hey Siri" to activate Siri. Then, for example, you can simply say, "make an audio call FaceTime to MOM" and Siri will only start a FaceTime call audio. If you say 'FaceTime Mom' Siri will begin a FaceTime call with video of this contact.

    The link below shows the ways to learn how to use Siri.

  • How to use iCloud

    HI, please help a total techaphobe. I need to store my photos in iCloud (that is already installed on my iPad, I have Apple ID n all). I tried to select the photos, but there is no option, then save in the cloud. Perhaps they are there already as the AutoSave is enabled, in which case, I need to have access to make sure that there so I can remove from iPad. There is nothing in "iCloud Drive" (I have no idea what Drive is in iCloud). All I can find on the line is either too complicated (it can not be that complicated) try to put myself in place (which I am already), or is completely irrelevant, even the things in apple support. I'm sure it's there somewhere, but it seems that I have to trawl through so much, I hope one of us guys can help me with a frank explanation...

    Go to iCloud.com on a browser and click the Photos app to see if your photos are indeed already in iCloud.  You can also check the Photos app on your iPad as well.

    Another thing to note, you can't delete photos from your iPad, because, unfortunately, is not how iCloud works.  It's a synchronization service and not an archival.  There is not your traditional cloud based.  Which means that it syncs your data on all of your devices that have them at your disposal.  Remove a device and it went on all devices.

    Hope that helps.

  • How to use audio only AirPlay on iOS10?

    HI guys, maybe I'm stupid, but I can't find how to use streams of music after upgrade.

    UseCase:

    -listen to music through headphones on my way back

    -When reached on home stereo and activate AirPlay

    iOS9 - low slide menu - AirPlay - Audio sent to Apple TV and stereo, play music (took about 3 seconds)

    iOS10 - slide down menu - AirPlay - there is only activate AirPlay with mirroring. That is originally for my TV to turn on automatically and also phone is drained and you know - I want to use only phone no stream all on television.  (Past 10 minutes, and can not find how to do this)

    Any tips?

    Hello Tomas Vrabec,.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. Information you provided, it looks like you are unable to use AirPlay to play only mirroring content after upgrading to iOS 10. Surely, I understand your concern, especially since it worked as you need on the previous version of the software. I'm happy to help you.

    Looks like you are taking the correct steps. First of all, I recommend you restart. This can solve a lot of unexpected errors. Use the restart below steps if necessary.

    1. Press and hold the sleep/wake button until the Red slider appears.
    2. Drag the slider to turn off your device completely off.
    3. Once the device turns off, press and hold the sleep/wake button again until you see the Apple logo

    Restart your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
