Apple TV 2 Library Not Available

I have two Apple TV in the house with the same problem. When I first turn on either Apple TV and try to select music or a movie from my computer, I get the message that no music or movies are loaded for this library.  I tried resetting apple TV, upgrading software, log in again to no avail.  Only way to get it to work is to unplug and plug apple TV back in to get it to recognize my library.  Any ideas on what is causing this issue?  Home sharing is turned on, using airport extreme, network test is fine, signal strength is at maximum.

Yes I have that problem too.
Restarting iTunes is the workaround for that one, which is obviously a complete pain in the backside if your computer is downstairs and you've just climbed into bed to watch a Movie.
Do you have a library stored on an external drive or NAS?   I suspect in my case (although I haven't as yet run tests to confirm), it could be my USB 2TB drive going into sleep mode when itunes is sat idle for x-amount of hours.  Toggling itunes off/on seems to restore 'something' and the library is then available to AppleTV again.
Things to try:
1) Turn off any sleep modes.
2) Try hardwiring AppleTV to your network (ethernet cable)
If the problem persists, it's clearly something that needs deeper technical analysis and that's Apple's job. 
Glad it's not just me!

  • Help! iPhoto library not available to other Apple applications

    My iPhoto library is not available for browsing in other Apple applications like iMovie, Mail or even Desktop and Screen Saver. I've rebuilt the iPhoto database, fixed permissions, tried to do over starting with a clean plate and importing the database and nothing seems to work. The iPhoto library is unavailable to other Apple applications that can make use of it.
    Any ideas as to how I can fix this problem? FWIW, iTunes is available in other Apple applications and iPhoto seems to work just fine as a stand alone application it just doesn't want to play with the other children anymore.
    Thanks.

    Eric
    Sharing between applicationns is enabled by a file in the iPhoto Library Folder called the Albumdata.xml file.
    First step: Remove this file and restart iPhoto. This will force iPhoto to rebuild the files. Then relaunch the other apps, see if they see can see iPhoto.
    If not, do you have any non-ascii characters in your titles or keywords - bascaly anything that's not 0-9 or a - z.
    If that's not the issue, have a look at this thread

    especially Dave E's discovery about malformed strings in the albumData file.

  • Iphoto library not available as screensaver

    I want my computer to show my pictures from the iPhoto library, as the screensaver. I always had that but now in Mountain Lion the iPhoto library is not available as an option to select. I do have the possibility to select my PhotoBooth picture, but I want my iPhoto Library. Anyone have the same issue and, more importatn, does anyone know how to fix this?

    you can choose to use your iphoto library pics by going into system prefs/desktop & screensaver
    click on screensaver and make sure you choose a screen saver option that uses pictures (such as floating, snapshots, etc)
    now next to source option hit the drop down and your iphoto library should be an option to choose
    once you choose iphoto library it will further give you options to use specific event pics etc.
    the following article also talks about screensavers in mt lion:

  • Aperture library not available as desktop or screensaver option

    Aperture library is not available as desktop or screensaver option. Nor is it available in Fotomagico. Any ideas?

    Go into "System Preferences" -> "Desktop & Screensaver" -> "Desktop"
    Scroll down the list on the left.  The top categories should be the Apple default desktop images that came with Snow Leopard.  Below that you should see iPhoto and it's events, albums, etc.  Below that you should see Aperture with your projects listed below that.
    Do you at least see the projects listed or does Aperture not even appear?  Or is the problem that you aren't able to select any of the images from a project?
    If the latter I'm wondering if you're missing previews.  You might go into "Aperture" -> "Preferences..." and pick the "Previews" category.  Make sure the check boxes are selected for "New projects automatically generate previews" and "Use embedded JPEG from camera when possible" (if your camera shoots in RAW+JPEG mode then it'll use the JPEGs from the camera as the preview instead of building it's own.)
    You can force it to update previews but note that since it normally wants to generate previews automatically the 'Update Preview(s)' isn't a global function... it only rebuilds the previews for images you have selected (which means you have to go into each project, select all images, and do a "Photos" -> "Update Previews"
    Beyond this, you'd probably need to run Aperture first-aid to determine if there is some corruption in the Aperture library preventing it from being used.

    I can't find it, but try trashing the STP preferences. I assume you've already gone through the menu to try to turn it on.

  • Shared iTunes Library not available

    My iTunes library is located in the "Shared" users account and pointed to by a folder alias in my own "Music" folder. However, when setting up a slide show in iPhoto, my iTune tracks are not available. In fact iTunes does not even show up in the Music pane.
    If I create an actual (not an alias) iTunes music folder in ~/Music/ iPhoto works as it should.
    I have tried creating symbolic links at the command line instead of using the "Create Alias" action in Finder. Doing so does not help.
    iTunes works fine. The problem is only in iPhoto.

    As a work around I have been able to start iTunes while holding down the "Option" key and create a new iTune Library in my ~/Music folder. Then I import whatever song I want to use in my slideshow.

  • Iphoto 8.1.1 library not available in IMovieHD

    I am running Leopard on my MacBook Pro and use both IMovie HD and 09. My IPhoto library is not available to me when I am editing in IMovieHD. This is a recent occurrence. I get the message "Open iPhoto 2 or Aperture 1.5 or later to see photos from your iPhoto or Aperture library in this list." I don't have this problem editing in HD on my IMac, which runs Snow Leopard. What can I do? Do I have to upgrade my laptop to Snow Leopard?

    Found it, yes, its in the Picture Folder, but I was looking for another Folder with all the pictures and notice a file called iphoto library, its not a folder but when I right click and show package, I saw a folder called orginal with all the pictures. 
    Thats what I was looking for..
    Hope this help other people...

  • ITunes library not available upon iMac sleep

    I have an Intel Core Duo v10.4.8. My iTunes music is on here and I share it on my local network through AirPort Express. When my iMac goes to sleep the sharing is not available on the other computers and I must wake it to continue.
    I have the computer set to sleep when it is inactive for 'never'. The display is set to sleep after 15 minutes. I've checked my network settings and have not found anything that would cause this.
    I am connected through Built-in Eithernet. AirPort is currently off.
    iMac4,1 Intel Core Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Goth,
    You checked it or did you actually perform an SMU reset?
    How about the frequency? Does it sleep once a day? Every hour? Every 15 Minutes? Etc?
    How about the "Schedule..." settings under Energy Saver? Are both those options cleared?

  • Apps in library not available for syncing

    I've searched and searched but can't seem to figure out this problem. 
    There are some apps in my iTunes library that I had purchased on my iPad and I want to put them on my son's iPod touch.  But when I plug in his device those apps don't appear on the sync list for his device.  No matter what I do I can't seem to get those apps on the list, which means I can't get them on his iPod.  How do I solve this problem?

    I see all my smart albums in iTunes when I sync the iPad. But sometimes iTunes is confused about the current library. I have several iPhoto and Aperture Libryries, and I noticed that iTunes sometimes still tries to sync the previously opened library, not the most recently opened one. To be able to tell which library iTunes is showing, I name one of the projects exactly like the library. So I can tell easily, if iTunes is syncing an older copy of the library.
    For example a small test library named "iPhoto Library" containing one smart album:

  • New MovieClips added to existing SWC library not available in Flash Builder

    To be as brief as possible with this...
    I have 2 swc libraries in my Flash Builder Project. One is in a "Common" project and the other one is in a MobilePlayer project. Obviously the "common" project contains UI assets that apply across the board, while the MobilePlayer version contains assets specific to that version of the application.
    Both swc files are in the respective libraries for each project we are referencing. Up until yesterday I could add new MovieClips to the "common.swc" and they would be available across the board instantly.
    Sometime yesterday I could not get new MCs added to my "common.swc" to show up in the intellisense, or become avaialble whatsoever.
    For troubleshooting I am creating a Square, turning it into a MC symbol, exported for AS with a classname of "Fubar"
    whenever I try and create a new instance of :Fubar() to anything anywhere in my applicatioin I get the Call to possibly undefined method Fubar error message. It does not show up in intellisense menus and it is NON EXISTENT.
    HOWEVER — Named movieclips within my .swc library I have already been using such as "CompanyLogo()" etc etc are STILL fully available and can be referenced from anywhere in my application. I can add a new CompanyLogo()  anywhere I want with no problem.
    As ANOTHER test, I REMOVED the movieclips CompanyLogo (and others) from my Library and re-saved the SWC.
    All of a sudden Flash Buider generates a compiler error (undefined method) for each missing referenced MC in the swc file (obviously, because they are no longer there).
    However, those named MCs still show up in intellisense menus etc etc.
    Basically what I can determine is that Flash Builder is not updating and picking up any changes to this SWC library whenever anything is added or removed from it. At some point it became "locked" in memory (for lack of a better term) and it refuses to recognize that the file has been changed.
    When I extract the catalog.xml from the SWC and read through it, I can find nodes for every single NEW mc I've created yet I cannot get them to show up in Flash Builder. I refresh, close and restart Flash Builder and have done everything I can possibly think of to get my updates to register and they refuse.
    On the other hand my "mobile.swc" updates just fine as I make changes to it. If I add a new MC to it, it is instantly available. If I take away a MC it FB instantly recognizes that it is gone.
    Am I doing something wrong here or am I correct in my assumption that for some reason FB refuses to update the contents of my "common.swc" library into memory?
    Any insight would be appreciated as I cannot find a single relevant answer in 3 hours of Google searching.

    OK,
    Now I see what is really going on. I am trying to reference MCs from my "common.swc" lib which is in a different project, and the reason they are showing up and available is because I used them in MXML files within the "common" project that are called upon and loaded before the mobile specific login screen MXML is loaded.
    I just did a quick test to see if the new button I created would be available within the "common" project and it is there, and shows up with intellisense etc etc as expected.
    When I add an instance of my new button to a MXML file being loaded before the mobile specific stuff I can then drop it into my mobile specific screens and it shows up.
    I either need to figure out how to reference MCs within a swc inside of a different project directly, or just declare them when the application first loads.

  • Oracle XA library not available  - Oracle 10g Release 2.0.1

    Hi,
    We have downloaded Oracle 10g Release 2.0.1 enterprise edition from oracle site and installed on Red hat Linux 4.0. After installation we found Oracle XA library is missing. Ideally it should be in folder $Oracle_Home/rdbms/xa/.
    The entire XA folder is missing in rdbms folder. Since the XA library is missing, we are not able to complie some C++ code which uses XA interface to connect to Oracle DB. Any help on this will be highly appreciated.
    Is this possible that XA library only comes with the license version??
    Regards,
    Sanjiv

    There is no such thing in Oracle as a "licensed version." When you download you download the entire product.
    But if you don't have a license then you really should contact your Oracle sales rep immediately. First for reasons of ethics but second to get a support contract which it looks like you are going to need to get patches for 10.2.0.4.
    My vanilla installation contains it so you might want to try first checking the installation log file for any reference to it.

  • ITunes library not available for two computers on shared external hd

    On our home network, using Airport Extreme, we have and external hd, and two mac laptops connected. We have all music in an iTunes music folder on the external hd plus the iTunes Library on the external hd. iTunes will only allow one laptop to connect to it and the says this every time I try to open it, "The iTunes Library file is locked, on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this file. How do I get permission for the other laptop?

    yeah you can keep your itunes library file on your local laptops, and keep all your actual music files on the external drive. then like said before, uncheck the box that says "copy files to itunes music folder" in the itunes prefs on the Advanced tab
    this way you each have your own itunes library, but you're sharing the same music.
