Appe TV synching, but not streaming

I just got my Apple TV. It detects my network and the Apple TV icon appears on my devices in I-tunes. It synchs fine, but now the hard drive on the Apple TV is full and I hardly have any of my music on it. This thing is supposed to stream music and movies from I-Tunes on my PC to Apple TV....right? I have I-Tunes running on my PC and like I said the Apple TV icon is seen on the I-tunes screen, but on Apple TV in the my music screen only shows what has synched onto the Apple TV hard drive. What am my doing wrong?
Thanks

....I'd like I tunes to just stream to Apple TV.
A secondary library will stream only, to set up a secondary library you will need to unpair your primary library first (select 'settings/computers/your library') and then select 'settings/computers/connect to shared library'
However before you do that you can stream everything but photos from a primary library and there are significant advantages to having a primary library. Your primary library will stream everything that isn't synced and you can actually tell it to sync nothing, in which case everything will be streamed.
If your tv is only showing that which you have synced then you most likely have the 'Show only synced items...' box checked under the summary tab.
(Please excuse my unsupported nomenclature)
....How do I delete stuff from the Apple TV hard drive?
Everything will be deleted if you unpair your primary library, however if you intend to keep your primary library, simply deselect the items you no longer want synced and the next time you sync they will be deleted from the tv.

  • Delete Apps from MacBook but not from iPhone

    How can I delete Apps from iTunes but not from iPhone 3GS when I Sync them? The moment I delete the Apps from iTunes and then sync iPhone, iPhone deletes them as well.
    Please assist.

    If you intend to ever sync your phone with your Macbook then you can't delete the app from your Macbook, otherwise the apps will also delete from your iPhone (as you've discovered).

  • I see my apps in itunes but not in my iphone, if just update ios, someone can help me?

    I see my apps in itunes but not in my iphone, if just update ios, someone can help me?

    When you go onto iTunes and you have plugged the device in it comes up at the top saying 'summary' 'info' etc if you press onto 'apps' does it show that they are ticked where it says sync apps? if not then tick it, sync it and hopefully that will help?
    hope it does

  • I want camera ,apps and wifi but not the phone. Can I do that?

    I want camera ,apps and wifi but not the phone. Can I do that?
    I'm sure this is a common Q but I've spent more time then needed already to find the answer with no luck.
    It's a free star to a polite answer

    This rings very true. The iPhone is subsidized by AT&T by a significant amount. This is corporate line fact.
    AT&T's subsidized price for the iPhone is as follows:
    3G - $99 for the 8GB & $149 for the 16GB.
    3GS - $199 for the 16GB & $299 for the 32GB.
    These prices require signing a two year contract with AT&T.
    Apple and AT&T's non-subsidized/no-committment/full retail sales price for the iPhone is as follows:
    3G - $499 for the 8GB & $549 for the 16GB.
    3GS - $599 for the 16GB & $699 for the 32GB.
    The iPhone is an iPod Touch with a phone that also includes a GPS receiver, bluetooth, and a camera. It also includes proximity sensors to turn the iPhone's screen off when holding the iPhone up to your ear and face during a call.

  • Can control desktop via devices, but not streaming TO devices?

    Just got "Remote" app, and have iTunes on my PC/desktop. I've turned on Home Sharing on both desktop iTunes and on iPad 3 and iPhone 5. I can browse iTunes just fine from devices, and control my desktop just fine from here in another room, but the music is not streaming to devices as I believe it should.
    What step am I missing? In "Settings" in both remote devices, I don't see a "More" option in either "Music" or "Videos" like the online instructions say.
    Suggestions?
    Thanks

    Hi
    +"Is it possible that my computer at work only accepts incoming connections but can't connect to the outside?"+
    Yes. Some network environments (typically Windows Active Directory/ISA Servers) block outbound VPN and/or VNC connections. I have known this at a number of sites I support. Especially educational sites where you may be dealing with more than one filter/proxy. Outbound connectivity may be allowed locally but may be blocked further upstream.
    Has it ever worked? If it has in the past and it's not working now that may be because your home IP address (external one) has changed? Residential IP addresses are generally dynamically assigned. You may want to consider logmein instead? This makes connectivity possible via standard http ports.

    You turn off iMessage on your iPad. When you block a number/Apple ID, that block will be synced across all iOS devices using your Apple ID.

    - Try going to Setings>Store and sign out of the account and then sign back in.
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

  • Buddy in app buddy list but not in menubar buddy list

    For some reason, one of my Buddies does not show up in the Buddy List available from the menubar. That buddy (and all buddies) are listed in the Buddy List shown within the iChat application. I tried deleting the preferences plist files as referenced in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8269981 but it did not change the behavior I am seeing. Any suggestions?
    This screenshot shows "Anthony Smith" listed in the app but not in the menubar list: http://www.eliker.net/missing_buddy.jpg

    I found the solution. That person had their AIM account entered twice into their address card on my computer. The capitalization was different between the two entries as well. I removed the buddy, deleted the extra AIM account entry from their address card, then added them back as a buddy as all is well!

  • App quits unexpectedly, but not from my b/u HD

    The application PTHPasteboard quit unexpectedly after working for one day. Launching it causes its windows to appear for one second and disappear. As I have a (recent) complete Mac HD backup on a Firewire external HD, I booted from the Firewire and tried PTHPasteboard. It worked normally. So I deleted the Mac HD version and replaced it with a copy from the Firewire HD. But after restarting Mac HD, PTHPasteboard quit again as before. Repairing permissions had no effect. I also tried a safe boot (shift booting) without better result.
    Emailing PTH Consulting produced the reply I expected (none)
    We are fortunate that forums don't use canned help (ahem, so far...). It makes all the difference. Has anyone an idea of why this app works on a backup but not on the original HD? It must be something that I did since the backup, but how can I find what? . I am reluctant to re-install PTHPasteboard as I would have to redo all the settings!

    For each application, there is an application preference file stored in your Home directory at Home > Library > Preferences and the application preference file stores all settings/preferences for the application.
    When deleting and re-installing an application, the existing application preference file is not deleted and installed new.
    This may be a problem with the application preference file on your normal HD boot volume.
    With the application quit on your normal hard drive boot volume, try replacing the application preference file with a copy of the application preference file in your Home directory on your Firewire drive. Be sure to replace the existing with a copy of the preference file from your Firewire drive.

  • My ipad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but not which ones.

    My iPad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but doesn't show which 2.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

  • I would like to delete apps from itunes but not from my iphone

    Hi,
    I own an iPhone 5S with iTunes 11 on a Windows PC.
    I can not see any reason why I would want to waste gigs of my hard drive on iphone apps, which I cannot run on my computer and which I can install from the cloud using the app store on my iPhone.
    Is there any way to delete all the apps stored on my PC, without it affecting the apps store on my iPhone. Essentially I'd like to free up some hard drive space by deleting them ALL from my PC, but keep my iPhone as it is. I'd obviously like it to sync my iPhone, but ignore all apps.
    What would happen if I just delete them all from iTunes on my PC?
    Thanks
    Matt

    You cannot delete IOS, without IOS (iPhone operating system) your iPhone cannot function.
    Try this basic troubleshooting steps:

  • How to remove App from iPhone, but not iPad

    I have an App that I would like to keep in my iTunes library, but only Sync to my iPad -- not my iPhone.  Right now, the App has been 'deselected' from my iPhone, but the associated file size did not decrease.  My iPhone still has 1GB more than I would like.  How can I remove the App and it's file from my iPhone, but preserve it on my iPad?  Thanks!

    Deselect it and sync.
    Is it still on your iphone?
    Apps are generally not that large.  I doubt you would notice much difference in memory used.
    Look on the iphone to see if the app is there.
