I want to use my apple TV as a second monitor not a mirrored one, in other words, I want to use my TV as a second screen not a copy of my first screen,other people have asked this question but have been given mirroring answers so I am spelling it out here very specifically. I want a second display. This should be possible and would be awesome. Anyone know how to do this?

Nevermind I just installed it to try it and it's awesome, so happy right now, Thanks. All the things I had read about it on third party sites led me to believe it could not do extended desk tops, thanks for your help!

  • I just upgraded my iPad from 4.3.3 to the newest - I think 6.1.3.  I cannot find my photos and videos.  I tried a restore, but after 3 hours, it's timing out.  Pardon my ignorance on asking this question; but is there a way to find my photos?

    I just upgraded my iPad from 4.3.3 to the newest - I think 6.1.3.  I cannot find my photos and videos.  I tried a restore, but after 3 hours, it's timing out.  Pardon my ignorance on asking this question; but is there a way to find my photos?  I do nto care about anythign else.
    Here are the steps I though I took this morning:
    Backup iPad
    Connect to iTunes and downlaod newest version of iTunes and then newest iOS
    restart Vista Laptop
    upgrade to newest iOS
    I knew somethign was wrong when it took about 6 hours to upgrade the iPad
    at the end it errored with this message error (-50), but the upgrade worked
    I was expecting to see all my photos but didn't see them
    I have tried a restore to a back up 2 times.  The first time took 3 hours and just sort of timed out - it kept saying that there was an hour to go
    I tried it again 2 hours ago and same message.
    They are very valuable to me and so now I am panicking
    Your help is much appreciated

    Hi Eric Ferguson,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Wasn't sure if it the right place to ask this question, but are the white shopping bags sends out by Apple Store eco-friendly?

    No information can be found on the website though.

  • I see two others have asked this question, but I don't find the answer satisfactory: So when will the GPIB driver support the 2.4 kernel? Or

    for that matter when will it get beyond BETA status? When I bought Labview for Linux, I assumed NI would provide GPIB drivers so that I'd be able to use it. I think we've been at BETA 0.6 for almost a year. For what Labview costs, this isn't reasonable.

  • (notation) dont know how to ask this question , but here we go

    How do i change the tempo of a song without adjusting the actual tempo?
    heres why:
    im composing songs in a tempo that sounds great by ear, but i need to decrease each value of each note in half so it can be in a 1/2 time tempo for my musicians to read easier.
    if the song sounds great at 100bpm, i want to compose it at 50bpm, so theres not that many rests, and other values harder to read.
    the only reason i need to do this is to make it easy to read for my readers, and remember , i can't read notation, just "midi blocks".
    sorry about the vague explanation, i just dont have the theory.

    Musical scores (which I assume you mean) don't work like that.
    There is no 'tempo' value like BPM.
    You just play the notes faster or slower - the time notation in musical scores has nothing to do with the 'speed' of the piece. It just tells the musician the 'type' of rhythm or pulse of each bar/section.
    This really isn't the place to go into Musical Score theory, but what you are asking doesn;t make any sense because you are comparing apples with pencils.
    What I think you are asking is that once you have composed your BPM arrangement then you convert this to a musical notation and that is where your problem is?
    If so, and again I am no expert, then simply reduce the BPm of the arrangement and then use the notation from that. Perhaps someone else understand what he is trying to do. After all if you are reading notation, that is all you are doing, reading notation. It's like a book with words, you can read them as slow or as fast as you like. There are no rules except the grammar and that is what the 'time signature' and notation is, just grammar.
    Does that make sense or have i really missed the boat here?

  • I have a problem: every time when i want to download free apple applications in the apple store, apple store asks me which type of credit card i want to use. Why did it ask this question?

    i have a problem: every time when i want to download free apple applications in the apple store, apple store asks me which type of credit card i want to use. Why did it ask this question?

    If you are within 14 days of purchase you can still return the iPhone and get the phone that suits your needs, however, I think you will find that no matter which phone you get the content provider will want to know how you are going to pay for future purchases. For Android phones it is Google, and they will certainly want to know.

    I have installed Adobe Reader 11.0.07 for Mac OS 10.9.3. Have asked this question numerous time without results. The problems I am having are: I cannot scroll using the side slider on downloaded PDF files, nor can I fill in fillable files. Also, and this is extremely irritating, I cannot re-initialize the same file or initialize and another PDF file after I have initialized the first file. If you cannot help please let me know if should use an earlier  version of Reader or find anther company that has the appropriate software.

    Perhaps you missed that you started a discussion at I have OS 10.9.2 and have downloaded latest version of Reader 11. I can no longer fill in form or scroll using the side bar. and you did not respond to the last post there.

  • I want to ask a question but is it supposed to go in this "Ask Your Question" field or should this really be a synopsis or a tersely worded teaser, like a "subject" line?

    Oh.
    When I pushed the "Ask your question of the community" I got this empty box. But I've already asked my question. Should I copy and paste it into this box?
    > I want to ask a question but is it supposed to go in this "Ask Your Question" field or should this really be a synopsis or a tersely worded teaser, like a "subject" line?<
    There. Now I have asked the same question, which is of questionable value, for sure, twice. So, if someone answers it, they will get twice the points. Right? Or is there another box for that? Should I paste the question into another box? Twice? 
    I've been around here for a l-o-n-g time, longer than ol' BenB by several years, so you'd think I'd know better.
    Maybe I do.

  • Why I had no problems with the VZW employees and other people have?

    I think that most people who cannot resolve problems with the VZW have an attitude problem.
    Wise saying:  you can get more with honey than with vinegar.
    Since I “upgraded” my old Samsung Sway to a new Samsung Intensity III, in the past three weeks I spent many hours dealing with the VZW store employees, customer service reps, and tech support people. The phone was replaced two times, and I had no problem getting the replacements.
    The third phone did not working how I expected.
    Today I called VZW customer service and said I don’t need anymore trouble shooting and I wanted find a resolution, which will be satisfactory to both of us. After a short conversation with a customer service rep, I was connected with a tech support. I told him that I don’t need any more trouble shooting on the Samsung Intensity III because I already spent HOURS doing that on three devices.
    We spoke about what the VZW could offer me, about replacements with different phones, etc. Our conversation ended with me offering the resolution that could satisfy me, which was to keep this phone and my account will be credited for the $30.00 “upgrade” fee and I will buy Samsung Sway on eBay. NO PROBLEM. 
    My account was credited and I was advise about the ESN number and activation.
    Why I had no problems with the VZW employees and other people have? The answer is simple. I did not have attitude when I was spoke to them.
    So if you want the problem to be resolved, put your anger in you pocket before you start the conversation. You can say that you are angry, frustrated, etc like I did, but add that you understand that this is not their fault that the manufactures makes a crap phones.

    Yes, you are right. I lost my upgrade. Also, it’s true that I could buy the phone on eBay… if I knew then what I know now. In the past, I never had problem with any of my phones. Doing an upgrade with the VZW was a normal thing for me. I didn’t expect that Samsung Intensity III would be a junk phone.  My last upgrade was 4 years ago. I had $50.00 ‘new every two’ credit on my account, which was used for an upgrade.  I lost the $50.00 credit paying for Samsung Intensity III. Sometimes we learn from our mistakes or from a bad experience. Three weeks ago I did not know that I could buy a phone on eBay and activate with VZW without paying $30.00.
    Samsung Sway is coming from …eBay – keep your fingers crossed for me.

  • HT201328 I have been given permission for unlocking my iphone 3 GS from Orange. I want to set up the phone for my wife to use with a new number and carrier. Do I unlock under my itunes account first or set one up for her and then unlock the phone.

    I have been given permission for unlocking my iphone 3 GS from Orange. I want to set up the phone for my wife to use with a new number and carrier. Do I unlock under my itunes account first ( I now have a new iphone on this account) or set one up for her and then unlock the phone. I am worried about upsetting the new phone.

    I would complete unlocking as is and then
    restore as new once you know the iPhone is unlocked
    Be aware Orange will process the request at their speed
    one of the reasons they usually reside at bottom of User Sat surveys
    will likely take weeks
    This may also help

    Hi
    It's likely your fan,  It always runs on a MBA.  Mine is very quiet, others report some noise - here is one link.  There are lots of others.
