    Apple will retire the iTunes Movie Store app with iOS 17.2

    Please for all that is holy, please allow us to turn off the stupid autoplay next episode then? The only reason I use the individual iTunes Store function on Apple TV is so that it will not play there next damn episode if I fall asleep. And on the iPhone? Please, who wants stupid autoplay for...

    New Mac Old Printer Issue

    Yes, it is listed there. And yes I have tried the generic driver. No result, it still sends print jobs to the printer, and says they are complete, but nothing prints.

    New Mac Old Printer Issue

    I tried the remedy there (and a few others) with no luck. I even tried my MacBook Pro with the printer and the same thing happens. The HP utility just spins and says it cannot find a printer connected, even though it shows up in the Mac Settings as an available printer. I think the only options...

    New Mac Old Printer Issue

    I just got my neighbor to replace her aging Windows PC with a new MacBook Air, and while I was setting it up for her, the only problem I ran into was with the printer. It is a HP LaserjetPro connected via USB (no wireless available). The Mac sees the printer, and I can send something to the...

    Am I the Only Person Having This HomePod Issue?

    I have a pair of original HomePods. When I set them as the default output for my AppleTV4K, after about 8 hours or so, they no longer work for Apple Music. I ask for a song and I get “there was a problem with Apple Music, please try again.” The only way I can bring back Apple Music is to break...

    HomePod with AppleTV seems to be causing lag?

    I recently set my AppleTV 4K to output to a stereo pair of original HomePods for Atmos audio. It sounds so much better than my 5.1 setup, but I’ve started to have lag with the Apple TV. Pause takes a few seconds, skip ahead takes a few seconds, and worst of all, it often just goes black with the...

    HomeKit No Longer Lets Me Add Accessories

    Ok, all the hubs show up in the settings in the Home app on my phone, and they all show up in the Discovery tab of WiFiman.

    HomeKit No Longer Lets Me Add Accessories

    I checked the settings on my Apple TV’s and they all say “connected to Home,” but nothing about being the hub. Likewise, there isn’t a setting for that in the HomePods, but they are accessible in the Home app, so they should be working as hubs. I can verify that all HomeKit functions are...

    HomeKit No Longer Lets Me Add Accessories

    I have three Apple TVs and two HomePods on the network. I tried using the native app (VOCOLink), but that just opens the Home App device add screen. I also tried directly through Home. You bring up an interesting point, though. The iPad can act as a hub, whereas the phones cannot. If both...

    HomeKit No Longer Lets Me Add Accessories

    I have an extensive Home setup, but recently Home will no longer allow me to add accessories from either my iPhone or my wife’s. It just tells me it was unable to add the accessory (in less than a second), and suggests I reboot my router (I have). I then tried adding the accessories using my...

    Why do I have to constantly approve my wife’s App Store purchases?

    Oh, I see that! Ok, I tapped on it and asks me if i want to “create an account for a child.”

    Why do I have to constantly approve my wife’s App Store purchases?

    There’s no “ask to buy” option there. Only “Adult” and “Parent/guardian.”

    Why do I have to constantly approve my wife’s App Store purchases?

    Sorry, that doesn’t work. I can switch her to “Adult” and back to “Parent/guardian,” but that’s what I did before. It still asks me to approve her purchases.

    Xbox One Bluetooth Controller Help?!?

    Ok, after 24 hours the controller again pairs with the MacBook, but it still does nothing. I’m back at square one.
