How do you get sound on your Apple TV when connected to a SS receiver?

I have a new Marantz Surround Sound receiver and a fairly new Samsung HD tv.    I connected my TV, Blue Ray player, and cable box with HDMI to the back of the receiver as specified in the connection directions. Great picture and sound for TV and BD player....but when I try to connect my Apple TV, picture is great...but no sound.    I connected the HDMI to the back of the TV (as specified in the Apple TV directions) and used an optical cable for sound (connected Apple TV and back of the receiver...only one optical port available.)
According to the reciever set up, the only source port with OPT set as default is the CD port (I will not be attaching a CD player to the receiver)...so when I turned on the TV and receiver, I put the receiver on CD as the source....no sound.   I made sure that the volume should have been high enough to hear.   I moved through all the sources that include TV, CD, BD, Aux, DVD, Game, and SAT (cable box)....nothing on any of them.
I saw the suggestion to go to Audio on the Apple TV and change the audio output from auto to 16 bits....did that.   No change.
Any other suggestions? I know there must be a solution....

The iTunes/iPod software isn't set up to let you sync songs from more than one libray, but if you manually manage the iPod you can add tracks from multiple computers without removing the existing content. Personnaly I think syncing with a library is a much better way to manage your iPod, so I'd suggest you just copy the stuff you bought at work onto a memory stick, then take it home and import it into your iTunes library there.

How do you get idvd on your mac?

How can you get Idvd on your mac? ive made a movie using imovie but i do not have idvd on my computer.

Apple no longer distributes iDVD.
1a) Buy an old iLife from a place such as e-bay or Amazon (https://discussions.apple.com/message/18750180 or http://www.megamacs.com/index.php?action=frameview&id=404733009&D=1). Make sure it is a version that has iDVD. Do not buy it from Apple since their version no longer has iDVD.
1b) Depending upon which computers and discs you have you may be able to do a custom installation of the software using old system installer discs that had iLife bundled.
2) Try a third party application (none have the features of iDVD though).
Burn (free) - http://burn-osx.sourceforge.net/Pages/English/home.html - includes basic DVD authoring but you will definitely have to read the documentation.
Easily Burn Movies to a DVD without Apple's iDVD. - http://www.creativetechs.com/iq/easily_burn_movies_to_a_dvd_without_apples_idvd. html - directions for using Burn to make a TV DVD. Note, Burn also has a separate application which lets you do more fancy menus.

How do you know what generation your Apple TV is?

How can you tell what generation your Apple TV is and what the version IOS it is running? Thanks for any help!

In the link provided, there is a section which tells which model you have; e.g.
Apple TV (3rd generation)
Year introduced: Early 2012
Color: Black
Model number on bottom:
A1427 for Apple TV (3rd generation)
A1469 for Apple TV (3rd generation) Rev A
The A1427 or A1469 is printed on the bottom of the apple tv with very fine print, i had to use a flashlight to see my model number.

How do you get sound to work on 1st generation

please help , how do you get sound on a first generation ipod touch. No sound is coming out ( I tried headphones but still no sound).

The 1st gen iPod Touch does not have an internal speaker so you will only get sound through earphones.
You could try another pair of earphones, check the volume settings, restart/reset the iPod, etc.

How do I get rid of the green hue when connecting to my TV?

how do I get rid of the green hue when connecting to my TV?

On the TV or iMac display and is Mirroring On or Off?
First check all of your cables, connectors and connections.
If it's a really strong green hue, then there is probably something wrong with the cabling or a connection.
If it is only slightly off hue, then go to: System Preferences > Displays > select the Color tab for whichever and try selecting a different Display Profile or setting a new Profile by selecting the Calibrate.... button.

How do you get wireless on your windows side of the computer

Hey,
I have a macbook and i use a air port express for my wireless internet on my mac side of my computer how do you get your wireless internet set up on the windows side of your computer. i can't figure out how put it on there at all so im guessing that there some thing wrong with boot camp. I'm 13 so make it simple

Louser500:
Welcome to Apple Forums.
Did you install the boot camp drivers as soon as you installed Windows on your boot camp partition? If not then:
1) Boot up in Windows
2) Insert your Leopard Installation CD in the disk drive
3) Windows should automatically begin installing the Boot Camp Windows drivers which includes the wireless connection.
4) Once the process is completed then you should have access to the wireless connection (Ensure that you choose the right network to connect, the security type and password which will the same as your Mac OSx side).

HT4623 how do you get pictures from your old iphone to your new iphone

I am just wondering how do you get your old pictures off your old iphone 4 to your new iphone 5?

If you are referring to pictures in the camera roll of the old device, you could always restore the new device from a backup of the old device. If you do not want to do that, then you would have to import the photos from the old device to the computer, and then sync the photos from the computer to the new device.

How can you get back into your iPhone if you don't remember the passoword?, How can you get back into your iPhone if you don't remember the password?

Help! My daughter changed the password on her iPhone and she can't remember it. How can she get back into it. Restoring is not an option so I'm hopeful there is another way. Thanks!

Hey KimmyP123,
Thanks for the question. I understand your daughter has an unknown passcode on her iPhone. The following article provides a few solutions for this situation:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
I notice you are looking for solutions other than restoring, the article does outline how you can use iCloud's Find My iPhone:
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Inactive Gift Card - How do you get constructive service from Apple?

I bought a Gift Card on 22 October from the local supermarket. It apparently wasn't activated by them. Somehow Apple have made that my problem. My first request was answered by a computer. I am now dealing with humans who do not seem to have any authority to resolve the issue. This is a ridiculous waste of peoples time over something that is relatively simple.
How does anyone ever get Apple to resolve an issue? Is anyone within Apple actually authorised to make a decision? Honestly, I am exasperated. How does anyone get Apple to resolve these issues?
For the last 3 weeks I have been patient - a model citizen. Here is my latest email. Apple keep removing its content. They have also removed previous threads. I have edited it slighltly for privacy reasons if that is their problem:
This verging on the ridiculous. I was quite excited to get my first iPhone. Now I am not. This has taken weeks to resolve. It has included my returning to the store to be told that they can not help me and to contact Apple. I contacted Apple, number [########] and received nothing but an automated response that had absolutely nothing to do with the inactive card. Apple did nothing else and then sent me a satisfaction survey. I could not believe that.
[#######] is my second attempt. I have now spent hours trying to get this resolved. We are talking about NZ$30 here! It is not the crown jewels. It is not the value of an iPod, iPhone, or iPad.
I have proved that I purchased the card, again and again. Obviously, for whatever reason, it was not activated at the store.
We have consumer laws in New Zealand. I know them well. I should never have let the store send me back to Apple as under our consumer laws it is the stores problem to solve. It should not have been my problem and I should not have been put to this trouble. I am not a criminal. I purchased an iTunes card that didn't work. That should be Apple's problem and the Countdown Store's problem.
So that this is in language that hopefully Apple can understand - iMad. Yes, very angry. Angrier than an 'Angry Bird'.
What I will do is:
Tell everyone I know not to buy an iTunes card. There is no service associated with it.
Tell everyone I know that Apple spends weeks messing you around and does not actually provide any service.
Tell everyone I know that Apple has a great product let down by poor service processes.
What I do want to make very clear is that I do not hold you or [name] responsible. At least I am dealing with humans after the nonsense automated response I first received. However, someone in Apple somewhere must be able to make a decision. Whoever it is and wherever they are please pass on the following message - STOP MESSING ME AROUND! I deserve an iPad2 for the time you have taken out of my life. I can never get those hours back.

We have consumer laws in New Zealand. I know them well. I should never have let the store send me back to Apple as under our consumer laws it is the stores problem to solve.
You have let the original store off the hook? I think this is where I would spend all my focus. They need to activate it, not Apple.
