• iCloud/continuity does not work with my Mac or iPhone now

  I was really holding this problem for a very long time now because it's really a "first world problem", but in the past year continuity and iCloud were either non-existent or not working properly on my iPhone 5 s (32 GB) and mid-2014 13 "(2,6 GHz/8 Go/128 SSD) retina MacBook Pro (and now it just feels like I use old devices when I'm not."

  They work on the latest versions of iOS and Mac OS El Capitan, are on the same WiFi network at home or at school, have all two Bluetooth-enabled, and are both signed in my Apple ID iCloud

  Last year when I had the time, I reset the settings, wiped and restored the iPhone, etc, to try to get continuity works again. Nothing seems to work, and so that the whole process has been somewhat of a breeze on the release of these two operating systems, for some reason any he didn't work on my devices. I'm really ideas at this stage on how I can get the work continuity (the alternative at this moment is iCloud tabs in Safari).

  With iCloud, the issues are not as complex, but the photo stream is not working properly. If I take pictures on my iPhone that do they not appear in a few hours on my Mac, and if I add a bunch of pictures in pictures on the Mac, appear at all on the iPhone. I have all iCloud settings enabled for Photos and it's still buggy.

  I use Apple products since kindergarten and I consider myself to be a loyal customer. It would be a shame if I can't find a way to solve what should be a simple problem.

  Thank you for your help in advance.

  I guess you have tried to sign your iCloud (on all devices) account, signing in?  If you tried and it did not work, and this problem is ongoing for you for a year, my next suggestion would be to call Apple Support (link at the bottom of the page) or make an appointment with an employee at the Genius Bar in an Apple store.

• I followed the instructions to set up the home between my Mac and iPhone sharing 6, but I don't understand all the music on my iPhone

  I followed the instructions to set up the home between my Mac and iPhone sharing 6, but I don't understand all the music on my iPhone

  I have confirmed:

  (1) devices are on the same network

  (2) I am connected to my AppleID with the same account

  3) are my OS up to date (Mac 10.11.2) (9.2 iPhone)
  (3) I closed iTunes and the App has reopened

  (4) I turned my iPhone off and rebooted (and confirms the foregoing)

  On my iPhone, I see in my music library, different ' kind' listed (e.g., classic, recently added, music of the 1990s, etc.) but they are all empty.

  Im hoping to see the music I have in iTunes on my Mac and play these songs on my iPhone.

  IM thinking, music that would be shared from my computer to my phone will be on the cloud?

  (I did not all default to add my music in the cloud at the moment).

• Why my notes sync between my Mac and iPhone?

  I have my MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks and my iPhone is running iOS 10.0.1 and used to synchronize my notes! Is it because of the huge gap in operating systems? I SHOULD update my Mac to Mac OS 10.10 + for this problem? Thank you!

  In order to synchronize Notes between your Mac and iPhone, you must configure iCloud > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

  But this requires macOS Sierra 10.12, the latest available version and the last iOS available for your iPhone.

• Someone is in my mac (and iphone)?

  I have reason to believe that my Twitter has been hacked. I disabled my twitter, but what worries me is the email that I used for twitter that I also use for most account on the web. IM afraid if my twitter has been hacked and the hacker has access to my email and therefore has access to my mac or iphone?

  If you use the same password for your Twitter account, e-mail and Apple ID account, then it is possible that someone could have access. Just change the password to http://iforgot.apple.com.

• How to remove a book from Mac or iPhone?

  How to remove a book from Mac or iPhone?

  Are what version of iBooks you on Mac?

  I read a bunch of discussions on trying to delete apps and books from iTunes (where books used to be), and the responses dealing with the last iTunes and iBooks basically say the same thing: can't delete anything. At least, you can't delete the old sense of deleting the file completely. Now when you 'delete' something, you're really just hide the view.

  I just tried to remove a book from the last iBooks (in El Capitan on my iMac) and the fine print in the dialog box has said very clearly that I take away the book of view, but it would still be redownloadable of the cloud. (I hope that cloud of it's Apple, not mine.) I want to manage what is in my cloud, and I don't want that it is cluttered with things that I "deleted".)

  In theory, I don't see Apple. You can just save space on a device, but be able to find the book later. But this isn't the case with me. When I delete something, I want to TAKE forever. Case in point, the book that I just deleted was one in iOS 8.3. Why I ever would want to get that now that I am using iOS 9?

  Apple seriously needs to rethink its approach to this issue. Maybe needing a second choice to confirm if you're trying to hide something or remove the cloud, or really, really want you permanently gone. But Apple is not choice. Never ever going to be I guess.

• Suddenly cannot sync albums of additional Photos from Mac to iPhone!

  Hi and thanks for reading!

  I use OS X 10.11.6 El Capitan on Macbook Pro with iTunes version 12.5.1 and just upgraded to iOS on iPhone 10.0.2 SE. There are 40 GB of storage available on the iPhone.

  All my photos are stored on my Mac and I always synchronize the albums selected using iTunes. Until today, I had nine albums (about 2000 pictures) synced to my phone. Just upgraded yesterday to iOS 10 and... cannot sync any additional album for my iPhone!   Do not help disable iTunes, Photos or even the iPhone and sync again. New pics added today to the former synchronized albums synchronizes all right.

  Is there a trick?  Or a problem of incompatibility between iOS 10 and iTunes 12.5.1?

  See you soon!

  Why you can not synchronize? What exactly happens? This error message you get?

  Good news!  Problem solved!

  First of all, I noticed that on my iPhone, WeChat (a good Chinese software equivalent to Facebook x WhatsAp) saw my fine albums, while the pictures couldn't!

  So weird, that I was convinced to try once more to bring my old file Photos Cache in my photo library, even if a new cache file is supposed to be created whenever iTunes syncs photos.

  For some reason, the last time I tried it did not work, but this time he did: my old cache file was now in my photo library!  I don't know what I did differently.  In any case, I sync my photos once more with iTune then open the pictures on my iPhone, half hoping to find my old nine albums back... and here they were!  Even my two additional albums were there, with all the photos inside!

  Problem solved, even though I still don't know what it was. Looking at other positions in the community in respect of 'Synchronization of Photos with iOS10', it seems that iOS10 there a problem that requires a sort of library discount at zero.  Thank you Leonie bear with me and try to reproduce the problem on your computer!  Information guide me to the solution. And I'm very happy that I can wait a few months before moving to the Sierra...

  Edit:

  Here Re: dump photos to another Mac it says that you must export the photo first and then it drops to your other device. But he has post comes from 2013. But I also have the problem that Aidrop via the share menu in photo delete location data :-(

• Mac and iPhone iCloud documents synchronization

  Hello everyone.

  updated for sierra yesterday and I thought the dishes of the documents folder supposed to synchronize content and I would be able to see them in my iPhone.   But that does not happen.

  im running on an early 2015 sierra latest iOS on iPhone and MacBook Pro 6.

• Is no longer, I can sync my Mac with iPhone for Messages.

  I used to be able to receive my iMessages from my phone on my Mac.  I've updated to El Capitan, shortly after it was released, and this error started over a month.  I have more "Text Message Forwarding" option listed on my iPhone.   When I try to sign on the Message on my Mac, I get the "year error occurred during activation."  Try again. '  I've updated all my devices to the current versions. In the Messages, it shows my account as "inactive."  I have disconnected all my devices, changed my password, signed back in and still nothing.  Can anyone help?

  This could be a difficult problem to solve, as there are several possible causes for this. Please test after taking each of the steps that you have not already tried it. Back up all data before making any changes.

  Before proceeding, test on another network, if possible. This could be a Wi - Fi access point public, if your computer is portable, or a cellular network, if you have a mobile device that can share its Internet connection. If you find that iMessage works on the other network, the problem is in your network or your ISP, not in your computer.

  Step 1

  Check the statusof the service. If the service is stopped, wait until he comes back upward. There may be a power outage, localized, even if the indicator is green.

  Step 2

  In the menu bar, select

   ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Date & time zone ▹

  The nearest town from there where you are should be selected on the map.

  Step 3

  Disconnect you iMessage and FaceTime on all your Apple devices. Sign out and then sign back in. Try to connect again.

  Step 4

  Restart your router and your device at wide band, if they are separated. You may skip this step if you don't control these devices.

  Step 5

  Follow these instructions to view the serial number of the machine. If the number is missing or invalid according to the web form, take the machine to an Apple Store or another service center authorized to correct the problem.

  Step 6

  The measures suggested in this support article. If you do not understand some of the steps or leads them not, ask for advice. Note in particular that the email address associated to your identifier Apple should be checked. If the address is in the field obsolete mac.com, you will have to change.

  Step 7

  In the menu bar, select

   ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network

  If the preferences window is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Click the Advanced button, and then select the Proxies tab. If the SOCKS Proxy box is checked, uncheck it. You don't need to change other parameters in the window. Click OK, and then apply. Test.

  The result may be that you can not connect to Internet at all. Cancel the change, if any, or if iMessage still does not work. Remember that you must apply changes made in the preferences window to take effect.

  Step 8

  Select in the menu bar

   ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Flash Player ▹ storage

  and click on

  Block all sites to store information on this computer

  Close the preferences window.

  Step 9

  Make sure that you know the ID and the password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to find and remove all items containing "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name. Sign out and then sign back in.

  Step 10

  Select connections comments * and log in as a guest. Do not use the Safari connection only 'user comments' created by 'find my Mac '.

  While signed in as a guest, you won't have access to your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you use them for the first time. Don't worry about that; It's normal. If you need any password or other personal information in order to complete the test, save, print, or write them before you start.

  Test while signed in as a guest. After testing, log on to the guest account and in your own account, disable it if you wish. The files that you created in the guest account will be automatically deleted when you log out of it.

  * Note: If you have enabled 'find my Mac' or FileVault, then you cannot activate the guest account. The login 'User comments' created by 'Find my Mac' is not the same. Create an account to test and delete it, including his home folder, after testing.

  If iMessage worked in the guest account, stop here and post your results.

  Step 11

  Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

  Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion drive or a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

  Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including his outputand Wi - Fi on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

  The login screen is displayed even if you normally connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

  Test in safe mode. After testing, restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and test again.

  If iMessage worked in safe mode, but still does not work when you restart in 'normal' mode, stop here and post your results.

  Step 12

  Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select this option:

  /Library/Preferences/com.apple.apsd.plist

  Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

  Services ▹ reveal in Finder (or just to reveal)

  of the contextual menu.*, a file must open with a selected item. Move selected item to the trash. You may be prompted for administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the trash.

  * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

  Go ▹ go to the folder...

  from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

  Step 13

  Reset the NVRAM.

  Step 14

  Reset the controller (SMC) system management.

  Step 15

  Reinstalling OS X.

  Step 16

  If none of the above steps resolve the issue, make an appointment 'Genius' on an Apple Retail Store or contact Apple's Support. When you configure a support call, select "Apple ID" as the product that you need help, not model material. In this way, if you're not under AppleCare, you can talk your way out of being charged for the call.
