How can I stream photos/videos to an AppleTV on someone elses network from my laptop?

I want to bring my MacBook over my parents house and display pictures from it onto the TV.  My parents have an AppleTV.
How do i do this?  Is there an easy way, or do i have to go to the trouble of adding it to the network, authenticating it, etc?

If you change your homesharing settings in iTunes (advanced menu) to use their homesharing settings, you can share your photos via iTunes by adding your library to their list under the computer section on the Apple TV. you would need to add your videos from iPhoto to iTunes in order to stream them.

  • How can I capture screen video (as opposed to just a screen shot) from my iPad?

    How can I capture a video shot of my iPad 2 (as opposed to a still screen shot)?

    Thanks so much for your reply. How would I go about mirroring the ipad screen onto my laptop? If I could do that, then I would think I could use Camtasia to get the video shot. I know I can use and hdmi conncetion to get the ipad screen to show on my TV but I'm not sure how to do it on my computer since it doesn't have an hdmi connection.

    You might want to start with reading the iPhone user guide. Basic processes like synching are covered: http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    In short, you must use iTunes to synch photos. You can also get more information in this knowledgeable article: iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support

  • How can I stream photos to 2 of 4 devices, have same apple ID?

    Hi, my wife and I both have a IPhone and IPad. We use the same apple account for purchases. But I don't want to stream photos on all devices.  Is there a way to stream photos from my phone to my iPad but not to my wife's and then have her devices share here photos? Thanks in advance for the help.

    You need to keep the same ID as you both have now for the iTunes store but you need to delete the iCloud account for one of you on both the iPhone and the iPad (settings > iCloud, scroll down and select delete account). You then need to create a new iCloud account (settings >iCloud).
    Before deleting iCloud accounts, consider that iCloud syncs calendars, email, notes, reminders and contacts, you won't delete any of that information from iCloud by deleting the account you will however delete it from the phone/iPad unless you turn each service off one by one before deleting the account, if you do this you will be offered the opportunity to keep the data on the device.
    When you create your new iCloud account you will be offered the opportunity to merge data (if you have have previously elected to keep it on your device).
    Hope that makes sense, my battery ran out just before I finished typing and I've had to type it all again - sometimes you rush things the second time around.

  • How can I set up a time capsule to extend my wifi network from a non-apple Medialink MWN-WAPR300N?

    I just purchased a new Medialink MWN-WAPR300N from Amazon to replace my old 2008 500 GB Time Capsule.
    I was wondering if it would be possible to use my old Time Capsule to extend the network from the Medialink router to the rooms in the back of my house. Would this be possible? How about if I use the Time Capsule as the primary point, and use the Medialink router to extend the network?
    Thanks!

    The Time Capsule would not be compatible with a Medialink product if you are thinking of trying to use the Time Capsule to extend the Medialink network using wireless only.
    The same would be true if the Time Capsule were the primary router, and you tried to use the Medialink product to extend the Time Capsule network wirelessly.
    If you can connect the two devices together using a permanent wired Ethernet connection, then you should be able to accomplish your goal.

  • How can I stream Live video?

    I'm working on a project where I take live video from an NTSC source. I'm looking for a simple program to import and allow me to take screen captures on the fly. I can edit it later. Can iMovie 09 do this...if so how?

    This is an AVCHD camera. On import the AVCHD is converted to AIC. So bottom line is, no streaming from this camera.

  • How can I access photos and videos saved to the iCloud?

    How can I access photos and videos saved to the iCloud? I backed up my iphone to the Cloud but now the files are nowhere to be found.
    I had to reset all content and settings in order to troubleshoot an issue. Before I did this, I backed up the iphone to icloud. When I reprogrammed the phone, I had to set it up as a new device and individually sync apps and other items from itunes. But by doing this, I somehow lost some videos and can't seem to find where they would have been saved/backed up. Can anyone offer any guidance?

    You can't view photos and videos on icloud (except for shared photo stream pics).  iCloud merely sync photos between devices using the stream.  If you don't have photo stream turned on, then the only place photos in the camera roll are located are in a backup.  You would have to restore from the backup.  But be warned that many users have ended up losing their photos when performing a restore, for whatever reason. 
    What you should do in the future is always sync photos/videos to a computer for storage, don't leave them on a device or trust icloud to somehow store them.

  • 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.

    How can I convert DVD- video into Apple's format so that I can play the content on my Mac and also stream it to my Apple TV? A few years ago, I transferred all of my home videos onto DVD but now would really like to put these onto my Mac and stream them through Apple TV to watch on the "big screen". Any advice would be most welcome!! Thanks

    MPEG Streamclip.
    Apple do not have their "own" format. You need to convert your DVDs to H.264 though.
