Can you stream video and use the computer at the same time on a mac mini with hdmi

Can you steam video and use the computer at the same time? I have a mac mini with hdmi.

Shouldn't be a problem, unless you want to view it in Full Screen Mode at the same time with only one display.

How can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

how can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

Wirelessly: you need an AirPlay - enabled device such as an AppleTV.
Wired: if your TV has an HDMI port, you need a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter such as this one:
Mini DisplayPort to HDMI® Adapter w/ Audio Support
If your TV does not have an HDMI port you will need a converter that will convert HDMI input to whatever input your TV requires.

Dear Adobe.
Yesterday I installed the latest version of Flash Player that auto appeared on my screen. Ever since I can not play video, and my system has become painfully slow. I have Mac OS Lion 10.7.5 and software is up to date. Before this everything was running beautifully. Can you please provide a link so I can uninstall the latest version only. Thank you. Stephen Kress. Melbourne. Australia

When you run the uninstaller, it will uninstall all Flash Player versions.
If you want to revert to an older version after that, get it from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html

Can you stream video from itunes using 1st generation appleTV

can I stream video using itunes on my PC and an appleTV(1st generation)?

AppleTV 1 works differently.
It has a sync/share mode and sharing (streaming only) modes set up by pairing the unit with iTunes on computers using the Settings>Computers menu.
The first sync and share connection is for one itunes library and allows you to sync compatible media to the unit's hard drive as well as stream the rest seamlessly if itunes is runniung and the drive has filled up - this media is accessed under My Music, My Movies etc.
Sharing libraries stream only and are accessed via My Shared Movies, Music etc.
Yes, Handbrake is a video converter that has AppleTV presets - use AppleTV1 preset or a simple universal Apple preset.
See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA38571
ATV1 does not understand Home Sharing or video Airplay.

When using Safari on the iPhone can you watch videos and listen to music?

Ok, this question might be stupid, but I just need to know.
Lets just say I use the iPhone and use Safari to go on myspace.
Can I watch a video on myspace? Can I listen to a song on someones profile??
I know you can just click the Youtube button and instantly watch a video. But on all the videos of the iPhone using Safari, NO videos show the iPhone using Safari to watch a video and listen to music on a webpage.
So can it?

Speculating on whether/when Adobe Flash will be on iPhone is not permitted in Apple Discussions. But, you can read opinion elsewhere (there's no lack of it)... I'll give you a couple to start:

Can you run Tiger and OS 8.6 on the same computer? RE: Repair Permissions

Hello,
I don't fully understand how "Repair Permissions" work and when it is needed and therefore I would like to post this question for some clarification. Using "Repair Permissions" for troubleshooting is a controversial issue. I read this interesting opinion about Repairing Permissions and now I am concerned that it may not be safe for me to install my old OS 8.6 on my OSX installed computer due to a "permission" conflict between OS 8 and OS X.
Could someone confirm this with me please? Could this cause some file permission problems?
I would use OS 8.6 to run my older Adobe Illustrator 8 application and photoshop 6. And then I will boot onto Tiger for everything else. I would switch a few times per day back and forth.
Basically, is it safe to run Tiger on the same computer that has OS 8.6 installed on it? (I am not concerned about making 8.6 run in the Classic environment because I know that doesn't work - I am refering to having separate bootable installs)
[1] http://www.unsanity.org/archives/000410.php
PS I am aware of how to change my startup OS on this particular computer (b&w G3). I would have to have the two OSs on the same volume and launch X by pressing x -key during startup due to the fact that OS 8.6 doesn't have the Startup Disk feature introduced in OS 9. That was an earlier separate discussion that has since been solved.
PS
I could choose to instead use my OS 9.2 but I have reserved that OS for another computer unfortunately. However depending on the outcome of this post, I might have to reconsider.

This is a really difficult issue to resolve! Apple doesn't have much documentation that covers running OS 8 & OS X on the same drive. There are, however, a few things that it might helpful to know:
1. Repairing permissions with Disk Utility in OS X won't touch user-created files. It only repairs things that have a receipt file, which are created by installers. The unsanity reference explains this; you might want to review that part of the article again.
2. Disk Utility has a separate repair OS 9 permissions function (accessed in the menus), but AFAIK, this only repairs permissions on the OS 9 system folder "blessed" by the Classic system pref as the one to use for Classic. I doubt this would be useful for the OS 8.6 system.
3. Of greater concern than mis-set permissions is file system damage. Under no circumstances should you use any disk repair utility on a Tiger drive except those that "know" about Tiger's file structure. This rules out using Disk First Aid from either OS 8 or OS 9, or any OS 8 or 9 third party utilities. (See this Apple document for the details.) I don't know if this also applies to OS 8's 'rebuild desktop' function, but I would avoid it to be on the safe side.
4. If you do decide to reformat or partition your drive for dual booting (as you mentioned in your other thread), do so only with Tiger's Disk Utility & remember to check the 'install OS 9 drivers' option or you won't be able to boot into OS 8 or 9, even if you have a viable system folder for either on the drive. See this Apple document for more info.
5. In light of the above, it is well worth getting OS 9 to use with Tiger on your B&W, as long as any older apps you need to run are compatible with it. (There should be no need to use OS 8/9 with text files anyway, since OS X can handle all the old text formats.) In fact, unless you need to use some peripheral that has no OS X driver, you probably will do just fine by using Classic with the old apps, eliminating the need to reboot completely.
6. If you need to buy OS 9, one inexpensive source is OWC's Mac OS 9.1 - OEM CD. At $35, it is a cheap way to avoid the headaches of OS 8 with Tiger! Note that you can upgrade from this 9.1 version to 9.2.2 for free with Apple's updates available from the Mac OS 9: Available Updates web page.

Can I stream video and audio from Game Center Live to my HDTV using Apple TV?

I am trying to stream hockey games from Game Center Live to my HDTV through a cabled ethernet connect to my Macbook Air and then wirelessly to my Apple TV. Apparently my Apple TV cannot find my Macbook Air because I cannot make the connection. Alternatively, I have heard that I might be able to access Game Center Live directly with my Apple TV but I'm not sure how to do that. Any advice is most appreciated.

You can only access content directly through a native app on Apple TV. To stream from your MBA you would need to use airplay mirroring, which will require a model from 2011 or later running OS X 10.8 or later. The alternative would be to use a 3rd party program like Airparrot, results vary to use the trial first.

Can you stream music and video to Samsung blu-ray players?

Hi
I'm thinking of buying a Samsung blu-ray player with wireless connectivity. They have the Allshare feature so you can stream music and video content from your desktop to the player. I have read that it does not work with Mac - is that the case? Does anyone have experience of this?
My wireless modem is one provided to me by O2 not an Airport Extreme
I was thinking of getting the BD-C6500

What does this device stream in?

Can you stream video to a PB?

I just got a PB - is there a way to stream video to a PB the way that you can with an iPad using Air Video? Either on your LAN or over the net?

Yes you can stream media you have in your home network to the playbook.
The playbook will play an AVI or MP4 on your PC, if you setup sharing this folder using http.
But then, only those videos will play which the playbook supports - and this is a very limited amount.
Better install a media server. No coding required, just a little editing of an xml file + some free software.
its not perfect, but, works acceptable for me.
download tversity. This is an implementation of an upnp mediaplayer for Windows.
The playbook is able to playback streaming media of different kinds, but it has serveral limitations, like not AC3 supported in an AVI or no mkv playback.
With tversity, you can setup a profile so that everything gets transcoded to Windows Media9. You need a Windows PC however (dont know, if there is a media-player software for mac or linux which is able to transcode to Windows Media9). Also, the PC you use should be not something old. Use a modern I5 or I7, otherwise, it wont be able to transcode all your movies in realtime.
After installation of tversity, setup the path to your library. During that, open the advanced settings of the libary, and set transcode to always.
In the transcoder settings, set Video resolution to 640x384
in when to transcode, specify "always"
choose Windows Media 9 for the encoder settings
save all,
terminate the service
open the folder where the program is located
you find a "profiles.xml"
open that with notepad or wordpad
search for xbox
below that, you find a line that reads:
<HTTPHeader outServerUA="Microsoft-Windows-NT/5.1 UPnP/1.0 UPnP-Device-Host/1.0 Microsoft-HTTPAPI/1.0
" inUASubstr="Xbox|Xenon"/>
replace that with:
<HTTPHeader inUASubstr="PlayBook"/>
A little down in the xml file, still in the xbox profile, you find:
<maxVideoInfo width="1920" height="1080" bitrate="20000000" fps="60"></maxVideoInfo>
replace this with:
<maxVideoInfo width="640" height="384" bitrate="2000000" fps="20"></maxVideoInfo>
maybe choose a higher fps, that wont hurt.
Save the file,
start the media server services
go to you playbook,
in the browser open http://ip.of.your.pc: 41952
now, you can enyjoy most of your movie collection.
What will not work perfect for me:
The html menu for browsing the library looks old-fashioned
Some movies will stream, but will be interrupted every few seconds for a half second. Dont know, if this is the playbooks fault or a problem with the tversity. Since the stream plays fine when simulating the playbook with a pc, I guess this might fix itself during the next PB updates.
What is nice:
in addition, tversity will also transcode for your blackberry, if your PB battery is down, you can continue to watch on the tiny 2.5inch blackberry screen.
btw: contrary to the documentation the PB does not support RTSP streams.

Can you have Firefox and IE browsers both at the same time and if so, do you have the choice of choosing one for a default browser?

I am using IE Explorer now presently. I want to be able to download and install the SEO Blogger tool from Wordtracker but it says that I have to have Firefox as the browser. Since I have everything else already set up under IE, I don't want to have to change all that just so I can download one program.
Can you help?
Thanks,
David Craig

You can have both browsers installed and running at the same time. You can also choose what one to have as the default browser.

Can you run 3G and connect to wifi at the same time?

Is it possible to use the iPhone 5 to search 3G and connect to wifi at the same time? I'm trying to run my Apple TV but only have 3G that is run through my phone. I want to play Netflix using Apple TV run from 3G through my phone.

The phone and the ATV need to be on the same wireless network. You cannot communicate with the ATV using 3G on the phone

Can I install and use any 2.5" SATA hard disk on my Mac Mini (Late 2012)?

I have a Mac Mini (Late 2012) which is currently housing a 500GB SATA hard disk. Unfortunately read errors have been detected and it seems to be slowing down. I want to replace this with another 500GB SATA hard disk and I was wondering whether any notebook (2.5") hard disk would work or whether I have to look for one with specific specs (such as RPM, SATA version, etc).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Any 2 1/2 inch STA HD will work as long as the height is 9.5 mm or less. All most all meet this requirement except very larger capacity ones
I would opt for a SSD since those are a lot faster than a 2 1/2 HD and now they are very reasonably priced.
You can consider installing a second disk to using:

How can you share Contacts and use Family Sharing?

Still sharing 1apple ID & 1 iCloud from way back when. Kids were little, syncing was simple... turned off their device iClouds and synced apps, playlist, shows w/ iMac via usb. I loved having my contacts, bookmarks, notes synced via iCloud and it became VERY handy when kid1 got an iPhone (appointments, practices, friends #s w/ ease!) We've recently added a macbook and another iPhone to the mix, we've got music issues & iPads ringing.... so a potential overall may be due?
Now that Family Sharing is here, it's still missing features that we USE:
* Notes (grocery list, packing lists...)
* Contacts (each family member has a 'group' name, they add to their group and the family's master list is 'all contacts' for anyone to access incase of emergencies.... anyone keeping up w/ kids lately?!)
* And the ever present iCloud icon is a looming feature for anyone, any age in the shared-family to be too curious...
* CAN any of these features be added along w/ Family Sharing?
HOW do I set up a simple family sharing system w/o interfering w/ bookmarks, personal notes, FaceTime/msg crossovers :
share our purchases (apps, music from our iTunes/playlists, podcast),
share our calendar
share our contacts
share a family notes
msgs/facetime for each member
mom: iphone, ipad, imac
dad: iphone
kid1: iphone, macbook
kid2: ipad
kid3: ipad
Thanks to anyone that has this set up and will share the method to my madness. Didn't know where to post this, sorry about that.

After having burned the AudioCD from iTunes Menu Advanced choose "Submit Track Names ..."
That will put the data of your CD into CDDB.
It may take between some hour and a few days until it is recognized on a second computer through CDDB.
