Apple TV does not appear as a listed "Device" in iTunes

I just purchased Apple TV. It is working okay. I have two Macs synced with my Apple TV. One shows a "Device" in iTunes but the other does not. On the second computer, once Apple TV is loaded the device icon goes away. I am unable to access the necessary tabs to sync my photos to Apple TV. I have tried removing Apple TV and rediscovering it but it did not change anything. What am I doing wrong?

Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forums.
This is not unfortunately the same issue as the OP (original poster) described. In any case we would need further info about your set up, types of connections, router set up, network set up, how far you get in the set up process, that sort of thing. Your post will attract more interest if it is in a thread of it's own, so perhaps you could start a new thread with the information I suggested.
Also just to clear up the original matter: Things have now moved on since this thread started and an update has enabled photo streaming. The situation is now this:
Your main (Primary) itunes (the one with which you sync) will (should) always have the tv in the device list.
Your secondary itunes(s) (the ones which stream only) will (should) only show the tv in its device list if the library is selected as a source on the tv.

I need to reset my security questions, I don't have a rescue email and I live in Lebanon (Does not appear in the list of countries for apple calls)

Hi,
I forgot my security questions and I don't have a rescue email setup.
I serached the internet and the only solution I found for that is to call apple. The proble is there is no phone to call, they have to call you and there is a list of countries.
I live in Lebanon and it does not appear in the list of countries listed for apple customer support call.
How can I reset the security questions.
thank you

    1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
          Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
          bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
          'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
          ID security questions' and click 'Continue'.
     2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
     3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

In Apple mail, the attachment symbol does not appear in the list of sent items

In Apple mail, the attachment symbol does not appear in the list of sent items. So you cannot sort sent emails based on whether or not they have an attachment. Is there a way to fix this?

I think my question wasn't clear. I know how to display the attachment header (I use classic layout) but the problem is that the paperclip icon does not appear against the messages that contain attachments. See screenshot below. The attachment column is displayed but is blank. These are my sent items and I know for a fact that most of them have attachments. Can you help?

ITunes Does Not Appear in the List of Default Programs?

My wife is trying to get iTunes to be her default media player, using the instructions found at this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3202.
However, when she goes to the list of default programs, following steps 1 and 2 at that link, iTunes does not appear in the list.
How can we correct this?
Thanks very much in advance for any info.

Vik-
I was having this same problem. I understood how to change the default program but like yours my iTunes was not in the list so therefore I was unable to set it to default.
This worked for me: (I have Vista)
I checked for updates on my iTunes program and there was an overdue update. I installed and restarted iTunes. Then went to my Default Programs tab and followed the instructions just as described in the support material and after my installation of the newest update my iTunes was now listed in the lineup of available default programs.
I hope this works for you as well!
Thanks and good luck!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can't doing anything abouty this, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

I still use Aperture 2.1.4. I need to export an image file with a CMYK profile. Whereas a generic CMYK profile is listed in ColorSync Utility, it does not appear on the list of profiles in the edit portion of the export preset dialogue. Help?

Is there some way to add the CMYK profile to the list of choices that are available in the export preset dialogue such that I can choose it?

Thanks for your response. My profiles are located within color sync utility as you can see here:
These profiles do not respond to clicking and dragging. Since they are all in one place, more or less, I'm reluctant to make further attempts to relocate them. Accessing the CMYK profile is the first difficult experience I've encountered with this arrangement. I have never needed the CMYK profile until recently, and that need has now past. However, it remains a mystery to me as to why it does not appear with all the others on the menu of export choices in Aperture 2, or on the menu of profile assignment choices in the Preview application (where again all the other profiles are listed as choices). I'm beginning to think my current set up will permit me to view an image that was created in CMYK space, but does not easily assign, or convert to that space. I don't face these restrictions with all the others, so it remains a curious circumstance for me. I anticipate upgrading my computer and software in the near future which might alleviate this issue altogether. Again, many thanks for your attention to this matter.

Apple tv does not appear in my itunes

In my itunes my Apple TV does not appear, Apple TV only appears in the loud speaker panel
my devices are:
iMac (24-inch Mid 2007), system version OS X Yosemite version 10.10.1
Apple TV, MC572LL/A, Software 6.2.1
can anybody help?

that is the only place it should appear
only devices one can sync with show up in devices and only the old first Apple TV could be synced to
the newer black ones show up as airplay options and in term they can access the shared itunes lib of the computer nothing else

Apple TV does not appear in preferences and therefore I cannot sync. Help!!

Apple TV does not appear in devices and does not appear in preferences. I can access my music libary between ATV and Itunes.
What am I doing wrong? I will have no hair left shortly!!!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The Apple TV 2 shouldn't appear in devices or in preferences and you cannot sync content to the Apple TV 2, all those things relate to the Apple TV 1 only.

CDs loaded, Artist name does not appear in ARTISTS list

Among all the CDs I've loaded and songs purchased, I have 2 Carly Simon
CDs on my video iPod. However, Carly Simon's name does not appear in my
list of ARTISTS in the Music Menu.
I did a sync with my iTunes list and the songs are indeed loaded.
Why is her name missing from the list and how do I get it back?
It used to be there!
Thanks-

I just found the answer on the discussion board.
In my SETTINGS I had compilations turned on.
When I switched it off, Carly Simon was back in my
ARTISTS list.

Epson r800 prints, but does not appear in Printer List: can't use Utilities

My Epson r800 prints, but does not appear in Printer List. It is connected via USB to the iMac. A Brother LH-2070N is connected via AirPort Extreme. I need to use Utilities to clean the head of cartridge, check levels, etc.. Is there a way to fix this problem?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)

For your Epson try this:
Hard Drive, Library, Printers (folder), Epson folder,
Inkjetprinter folder, Utilities folder and here you
will find Epson Printer Utility2. Click on it and it
should work.
Note. Epson utilities will not work unless the
Printer is directly connected to the computer.
Had the same issue with my 2200 photo and the above
worked.
Tried again after reinstalling the drivers. There is no separate Inkjet Folder, but the Printer Utility is within the Epson folder. Unfortunately, the r800 still does not appear in the Printer List, hence no utility.

Why MSDAORA provider does not appear in the list of providers of management studio?

I have a Windows Server 2008R2
64-bit standard. with SQL Server
Express with Advanced Services 2008R2
64-bit. After performing the
above installation and do all the updates, I installed
Oracle 10G 32 bit client.
open sql server management studio and looked
at the list of providers. MSDAORA
does not appear in the list. I can do to make the
management studio put it in the list of
providers.
ps: this server must have the client
installed Oracle 10G 32
bit because I have several 32-bit applications
that use this client

Hello,
MsDaOra is the old (bases on Ora 8.5) deprecated Microsoft driver for Oracle; you should avoid to use this driver.
You can install the 32 bit and 64 bit Oracle OleDb driver parallel on the machine, that works. The you can use the driver version depending on the tool you work with.

Album artwork does not appear in album list or grid

I added album artwork (did get info then copy and paste) and it shows up fine in cover flow but does not appear in album list or grid view.
What am I doing wrong? Artwork files were scanned from album covers that I have.

Your album artwork cache may be corrupt. Provided most, if not all, of your artwork is embedded you can simply delete the Album Artwork folder that you will find inside your main iTunes folder and then scroll slowly through the library in Grid/Albums mode to rebuild it. Any images that were "downloaded" rather than embedded will need to be reacquired.
Threre are separate folders for the downloaded and cached images, but I've always gone for a complete rebuild so I don't know it would work to delete just the cached folder.

CD does not appear in Source list

Hi
when trying to import from CD, the first CD appears in the source list but subsequent CDs don't. I've looked at the iTunes support page and seen the post about running msconfig but the file mentioned does not appear startup item list (so I cant disable it ).
I have the latest patches for XP and the CD drive.
Any further thoughts ?
Thanks

That did not work either. I get another message that says the disk image failed to mount.
I did finally get the updates for Panther last night via software update, but it has not solved anything. Also had someone come over and see what they could figure out -- to no avail.
Digital data CD's appear on desktop just fine. CDr's load. Just not music cd's. It's driving me crazy!

Apple tv does not appear as device in I Tunes

If it is a version 2 ATV, it will not appear in iTunes except where you can select it for Airplay. With the new ATV2, you go in the opposite direction (ATV2 to iTunes) after you have enabled sharing. The ATV1 could both store (sync) and/or stream content. The new one cannot. The ATV2 will appear as an AirPlay device in iTunes and in the iPod and Video areas on an iPhone, iPad, etc.
If your ATV is a version 1, you will have to reset it and go through the setup process using iTunes....
