Apple TV Does Not Sort Artists The Same As iTunes

I'm having an issue I hope somebody can tell me how to get around. Many CDs I import (and some songs purchased on iTunes) will have a songs on them with a "featured" aritst. So, for instance ... instead of the artist for the particular song being "R.E.M." like the other songs on that album, it is "R.E.M. Feat. Kate Pearson". Then, in iTunes within the 'Artist Box' at above the song list in iTunes, there are two different artists: "R.E.M." and "R.E.M. Feat. Kate Pearson". To fix this in iTunes, I click into the 'Get Info' on the song and change the Album Artist and Sort Artist to "R.E.M." Then, everything is grouped together correctly.
Now, the issue: This fix does not appear to transfer over to AppleTV. It still separates the artists as two separate artists.
Any ideas or thoughts on how to get this to work correctly on AppleTV like it does on iTunes?

Ok, I just figured it out on my end. Steps to follow:
On your Mac or PC:
Get into iTunes:
Where your ATV is right click it and Disconnect (stop streaming)
Your ATV will disappear then go to your Apple TV.
On your Apple TV do the following:
Go to Settings:
Click Computers:
Then where your shared Computer is click on it and Disconnect.
Once this is done, you will still see your computers name or "Connect to" click on that and it will show a 5 digit number. Go to your Computer and type it in when the Apple TV pops up in iTunes. This will totally reset your ATV and you can rename it if you would like. Also choose "Custom" for syncing and then once you hit Apply any purchases you made on your ATV will transfer to your computer right then and their.
Hope this helps.

My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

iCloud will not sycn a calendar from an external source. In order to use iCloud to sync it, you would have to move it to iCloud and stop using Google. I know how to do that on a Mac, but I'm not sure how to do it on a PC. If you're using Outlook, I suspect you export it as an .ics file to your desktop, then import it to the iCloud account in Outlook. I'm sure you could use Google to find the specific steps.
However, there's really no reason not to just use Google to sync your calendar across your devices. Instead, just continue to use Goole calendar on all your devices and they should stay in sync. Take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0Jj0KFgbYI.

AppleWorks Icon does not stay in the same position after saving

After I installed AppleWorks 6.2.8, each time I save the file (word prosessor or data base) the icon on the desktop always moves to the right side of the screen below the hard drive icons. If I drag it to different position, then save the file it will move to the right side of the screen. If the saved file is in a folder, it always goes back to it's origional position. In fact, the same thing happens to other applactions (PhotoShop, TurboCad, etc.). This only happens in OS 9.2.2. It does not happen in OSX 10.4.6. The same situation also happens on my iBook and PowerMac G4 MDD after installing AppleWorks 6.2.8.
My System: PowerMac 7300, Sonnet 1GHz G4, 1GB memory, OS 9.2.2, OSX 10.4.6
I checked the AppleWorks preferences and Control Panels and could not find any settings.
This does not happen with AppleWorks 5.
Anyone know what has happened? Are there settings I am missing?
Much Thanks,
Gene
Mac OS 9.2.x

Hello
If I remember well, AppleWorks 5 was saving one document by rewriting the old one. Doing that, all the file's attributes where kept.
AppleWorks 6 writes an entirely new file, so the icon is not preserved. Of course, some of us think that it would have been a good idea to keep the parameters of the old file and "paste" them to the new one.
I wrote a script doing that but it is not perfecly stable.
For my own use, I build an alias of every file to which I want to give an icon. The file itself doesn't keep the icon (and its position in the window) but the alias keep it.
If you are really bothered by the standard icon, create a subfolder in which you store the documents and use these two scripts.
--[SCRIPT hideIt]
set leDossier to "Macintosh HD:Users:yvankoenig:Desktop:documents AppleWorks:"
try
tell application "Finder" to set name of folder (leDossier & "masqué") to ".masqué"
end try
--[/SCRIPT]
--[SCRIPT unHideIt]
set leDossier to "Macintosh HD:Users:yvankoenig:Desktop:documents AppleWorks:"
try
tell application "Finder" to set name of folder (leDossier & ".masqué") to "masqué"
end try
--[/SCRIPT]
You will see the aliases with their icon and the true file will be safe in the hidden subFolder.

Browser REFRESH button does not return to the same iView/Page

Hi,
In SDN site I have seen that in whichever menu i am in, if i use the browser refresh button i return to the same page. But this does not happen on my enterprise portal.
Can you please let me know, how to set / configure the enterprise portal EP7 such that, if am in any iview and use the browser refresh, then i am returned to the same iview / page and not to the first page of the menu. Currently in my portal, when i hit the browser REFRESH button, it takes me to the first page/iview.
Thanks,
Anirban

Dear Romano,
Thanks for your reply. With the help of the document link that you have provided, i have been able to achieve my target partially. Currently i am able to refer to the iView and Role directly using the QuickLink and when i access that particular iView & Role using the QuickLink and then do a refresh, the same screen appears. This part is working fine. But i have one issue.
But generally a iView/Role is accessed not via the QuickLink on the browser but by clicking on the Role on Navigation Level 1. Even though this Role has a QuickLink, it is not visible in the address bar since the QuickLink URL was not used for reaching the Role. In such a situation, when we press the REFRESH button, the iView / Role is vanished and the browser returns to the first default page of the portal.
Can we somehow make it such that whenever the Role is accessed in the Navigation Levels, it can be accessed via QuickLinks and the QuickLink URL is displayed on the address bar ? If this can be achieved, then i guess the problem will be solved.
I hope i have been able to get across my point. Hoping to hear a positive reply from your side.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Anirban Kundu.

How come the Ipad mini has Siri and the ipad 2 does not, they have the same chip

I was comparing the ipad modles and the ipad mini and ipad 2 are the same just smaller but the ipad 2 does not have Siri...

The iPad 2, from reports I consider reliable, lacks the special noise-cancelling circuitry necessary for Siri and included in the newer iPad models.

My source file does not stay in the same order when imported to Target

Hi Gurus,
I am importing a file using the LKM to SQL to a target datastore on Oracle. I am using the IKM SQL Control Append but my problem is in my target datastore the order that the flat file is in is not longer together. I added a ROWNUM column and triggered a sequence but the order from the flat file is still not the same as the table. I need the order to remain the same b/c during the load to Planning it holds the metadata order correctly.
Could someone give me a suggestion.
Thanks
Mike

Are you using the Planning Metadata load KM. If so there is an option on that KM Called Load by Input Order which repsects the order of your data in the source when loading to Planning

Shape does not stay on the same page

How do I get shapes to stay where I put them? Specifically:
1) How can I draw *circles around words* and make them STAY around those words, even when I add text and page-breaks above those words?
2) How can I draw *arrows ON my pictures* and make them STAY on my pictures, even when I add text and page-breaks above those pictures?
My dilemma is that "+moves with text+" ensures that they stay in the same place, even when I add text or page-breaks above the circles and arrows, BUT the circles and arrows are treated as text and I can't place them AROUND/ON my words and pictures.
The only other setting, "+fixed on page - no object wrap+" lets me place circles and arrows to be AROUND/ON my words and pictures (instead of beside), but they don't move WITH my text and pictures.
ARGH!!!!
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!!

{quote:title=Brie Fly wrote:}
Many (including Pages™) will let you add circles and pointers in a meaningful way, but only after your words have been substantially processed.
What do you mean by "substantially processed"?
And the feature I'm describing (having a shape linked to text so that it moves with the text) is a feature I have used in MS Word. In their terms, you "anchor" your shape to a spot in the text. When that spot in the text is moved, the anchored shape moves with it.
Thanks for the input though, Brie.

Burned DVD does not read on the same iMac10,1

I burn a dvd on my iMac10,1, and it will open off of the disk, but when I eject the dvd and try to load it back on the same computer, it ejects and doesn't read it. Why or how to fix it?

Todd is most likely correct. You burned an HD DVD which is a defunct commercial format.
If you want to create disks that will play in standard DVD devices, you'll have to start over using the settngs Todd has laid out for you as there is no way to migrate your existing HD DVD layout to a SD DVD.
good luck,

My is ATV3
Additional information:
I have got my wifi working in ML now. I still have to turn off and restart sometimes.
Btw. Screens described below is translated from Swedish but I hope You understand what I mean
ATV3:
ATV3 is working.
I can go to YouTube etc. and radiostations work just fine.
I have turned off HomeSharing and selected an other AppleID (same as before, just wantede to redo)
HomeSharing shows the Correct ID down to the left
The menu screen on ATV shows "Homesharing on" "Click on Computers to view"
I click on Computer and a new screen comes up:
"You have to turn on HomeSharing to see your libraries"
If I go to Screensaver can choose "my photolibrary" and all pictures will show.
iTunes:
I know to choose what to share since I been with ATV since the very first one.
But for sure I unchecked all and rechecked them again and pressed "Confirm"
In the iTune right list, no homesharing are wieved.
If I Turn off homesharing and Turns it on again the list shows HomeSharing but after I
signed the password and click OK it goes away in the list in iTunes.
Ipad3 and Iphone 4S no longer have the airplay icon.
I can not go back to earlier revisions of the program as my TM goes back to the day I installed ML.
I read in the newspaper tha Apple now is the biggest with a huge capital. Perhaps they could take a few dollars to fix this.

Hello, I have a Dutch bought iMac but live in Sweden my ID will not allow me to shop in Itunes and this confuses me, my iTunes is in Dutch, but my Swedish Itunes ID and Apple ID does not work in the Dutch store...only thing I wnat to do is to be able to

Hello everybody,
I bought my iMac in Holland in 2009 but I live in Sweden, I made an Apple id here and it works for the Apple Store, but it doesn't work with Itunes as I have my itunes in Dutch of course and am right away transferred to the Swedish iTunes and am told I can't buy music because I live in Sweden and am directed to itunes sweden on top of that I am not such a Swedish speaking or reading person and now I am stuck:(, I can't do anything with music and such, does anyone of you out there know how to solve this problem?
It's a worldwide problem because as soon as a site knows your ipaddress it right away transfers you to the site in the country you live in, idiotic to my view, we have open borders, many people living in countries that they were not born in, many prefering to have their computers in their native language and then meet problems!
Have a nice day/evening all:)

Not just a language issue...
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching your billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations."

TS1559 Apple resolution does not work on the 4s. What is my next step?

The Apple resolution for a greyed out WiFi option did not work. Any help on what to try next?

Bryce if you restored as a new phone and that did not correct the problem then you have done as nuch as you reasonably can, You most likely have a hardware problem. If your phone is still under waranty you can apply to have it repaired or replaced - contact Applecare support at 1-800- MYIPHON - if phone is out of warranty they will offer replacement at $199.

Adobe and IT7 Does not work at the same time

When editing a video with Adobe Premier, I opened IT7 to have some background music. Except that whenever I move my mouse of hit any keys, the song fasts forward, or slows down. Also, only when I have Adobe open, does the sound come out staticy. Plays fine w/ any other programs.
Any suggestions?
