How do I switch between satellite and apple tv?

I am proud I hooked up my Apple TV,  (tech dummy), but now I can't switch back to satellite for other programming.  Do I have to disconnect and start over?  I did not use "input" on TV before installing.  Can't, or don't know how, to do it now.  How do I do this?   Apple TV works well!  I'm afraid to take it apart.

Depending on how your satellite connects to your tv you will need either your sat. remote or your tv remote to switch it back to the correct input for that.  For instance my HDTV has a coax input for my satellite and I have to switch to HDMI input for my AppleTV.  I either need more information to walk you through it more or you can start punching buttons.  That should be the readers digest version though.

  • How to quickly switch between straight and curly quotes?

    I've recently moved from a Windows XP machine with MS Office to a Mac Pro with Pages.
    For the kinds of documents I typically work on, sometimes I need to have straight quotes, and sometimes curly quotes. With MS Word, I was able to create a couple of macros that would switch these preferences for me. With these macros linked to an icon in the toolbar, switching between straight and curly quotes was as easy as clicking a button.
    Now I'm looking for a way to do this -- or something like it -- with Pages.
    I know how to switch back and forth using the preferences menu, of course, but I'm looking for something quicker and simpler, since I often have to make this change several times a day.
    Can Automator do something like this? Or is there another way?
    -- Eric

    Turn off the auto correction and you can type Curly quotes with:
    left single ‘ option ]
    right single ’ option shift ]
    left double “ option [
    right double ” option shift [
    If you want the French quotes « and » they are option and option shift |

  • A540 How do I switch between HDMI and PC inputs?

    When I have an HDMI source plugged into the A540, I haven't been able to figure out how to switch between HDMI and PC inputs. How is this accomplished?

    You can browse the other store but unless you have a credit card and billing address in the other country you will not be able to purchase.
    All prices are in the local currency of that country that you are browsing.

  • How do I switch between number and alphabet on printer keypad when trying to connect new router.

    HP wireless printer 6500 e709n
    Have a new router.  Using the printer tools, and network setup, printer can find router but when I input the password using the keypad, alpha characters appears and therefore rejected.   Password is numeric.  The password cannot be changed because it is provided by ISP and is unchangeable, as far as I know.
    I've checked the user manual and there is no mention of how to change between using the 6500 e709n keypad in alpha and numeric mode.

    Hi hessvette,
    When the keyboard appears on the printer display, there should be a ARROW pointing up or a TRIANGLE. Press that, and the entire keyboard changes into CAPS. To enter lower case you need to tap the appropriate letter key twice quickly. The first tap should show a capital and the second should show a lower case letter.
    If it is an older type printer with a keypad then you would have to cycle through the letters and numbers. Lets say you want to enter the number '2'. Keep pressing the number 2 button. It will cycle through all the options for that button, ie A,B,C,a,b,c and the 2. You do the same for the other buttons.
    I am sending a link for Installing the Printer on a Wireless Network.
    Let me know if this helped.
    Thank you,
    I worked on behalf of HP.

  • How do I switch between http and https?

    I need to be able to show a majority of a portal in http, but need to have a couple of pages/portlets use https. Does anyone know how I can setup certain items to use https and also have it automatically switch back to http for those items that don't need to be encrypted?
    Any information would be great!

    Here's what I've got in my web.xml. Note that all I'm trying to do here is replicate the functionality that was provided in WLPortal 4.0 with the HTTPS_URL_PATTERNS parameter in the old web.xml.

  • HT3180 When trying to play itunes and slideshows from my Mac book to Apple TV the small icon on the bottom right of the screen which switches between Computer and Apple TV doesn't always show up, and therefore the function doesn't work.  What's up?

    We are trying to play playlists and a slideshow from an Apple Macbook wirelessly to the Apple TV.  The small, upward arrow icon that appears on the bottom right of the screen (which allows you to pick Computer or Apple TV) doesn't always show up, and therefore, we can't get it to work.  Any thoughts?

    Airplay mirroring software will not work with anything below Mountain Lion 10.8 and an Apple computer from 2011 or newer.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404
    Go to "About this Mac" and tell us:
    1. What OS X version you are running
    And then click on "More Info" and tell us
    1. What year is your Macbook.
    Also tell us a little about your cable and Wireless setup.
    Maybe we can help.

  • HT204053 How do I switch between to apple accounts?

    How do I switch between two apple accounts?

    Two Apple IDs? Not a good idea. I believe that you will find that if you switch the Apple ID associated with your iPad that you cannot switch back to the other Apple ID for 90 days.

  • HT2155 when i try to install app and it prompts for password a apple id shows up from previous owner and i dont know password how do i switch it to my apple id?

    when i try to install app and it prompts for password a apple id shows up from previous owner and i dont know password how do i switch it to my apple id? ive restored the phone and my apple id is registered as mine on phone

    You don't. Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to originally obtain them & cannot be transferred to another Apple ID. You need to purchase the app using your ID.

  • I have the kindle app on my I pad.   How do I eliminate books I've already read?  On a regular kindle, you can switch between cloud and device but I am not getting that option.  Thanks

    I have the Kindle app on my I pad
    I want to eliminate the books I've already read (I have a LOT).
    On the regular kindle you can switch between cloud and device but that is not working on my I pad.

    Thanks

    The Kindle app has a menu on the very bottom center of the screen that allows you to switch from a device and cloud view. To remove a title from the device, tap and hold on it. a pop menu will apear that allows to add the title to a collection, remove it from the device, or download it from the cloud (depending on its current status).

  • My home sharing continually fails between mac and apple tv 2.

    my home sharing continually fails between mac and apple tv 2, even during watching a movie.  I go to the mac to re-turn on home sharing but it is still on.  Any tips?  I also have to turn off and back on at the mac every time i switch on my apple tv.

    Sharing Stopped working again over night.
    I went to Apple Support Artical TS2972
    As soon as I did this Home Sharing started working
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2972
    Firewall Section
    5. Check Firewall Settings
    If you have a firewall enabled in your router or computer, make sure that the firewall is not blocking communication between your computers. Home Sharing uses TCP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 to communicate with shared iTunes libraries.
    In addition, Apple TV and Mac computers will use port 123 to set the time automatically. Incorrect date and time on either the computer or Apple TV can cause errors for Home Sharing and connections in general.
    If you are unsure whether your router has a firewall or the required ports open, test additional devices or another network to help isolate the issue. If the devices tested work on another home network, it is your router or network configuration.
    For Mac OS X, you don't have to edit the port addresses, but make sure the firewall in Apple () menu > System Preferences > Security > Firewall are not set to:
    Block all incoming connections
    Allow only essential services
    If you use another security/firewall software on your computer or router, follow this article or contact the manufacturer or check the documentation on how to open TCP ports 123 and 3689 as well as UDP ports 123 and 5353.
    It made sense to me, but its still puzzling me after restarting a router would (in my first attempt) resolve the issue for a day.  This this time I applied the port forwarding TCP and UDP ports and saved the settings in the DLink DIR-655 and both my iPad2 and iPhone 3GS were now again finding the share. My ATV2 is also now accepting the Share.
    Tommorrow will be the true test.
