Apple TV Movies and iTunes

Quick one - do all my movies need to be in iTunes for Apple TV to see them?

That's great news - thank you.  I hadn't realised that iTunes would recognise an external drive either so two answers for the price of one.
I'm off to convert all my .avis to iTunes vids!  Great

    You don't say which film you're struggling to download, I had problems with a-team and I ended up emailing the address on the leaflet, turns out they had a lot of problems  with people's codes,  they then gave me a new code to use! I have now managed to get the film downloaded?

  • Why are not my Apple widgets movies and stocks not working? I reloaded operating system(per genius bar) to no avail

    I have mountain lion and all of a sudden my Apple widgets: movies and stocks do not work. The movies comes up blank and the stock one lists my stocks but no longer with updated prices. It gives current articles at the bottom and says" retireving data". The genius bar said I needed to re-install my operating system which I did- but no difference. The stocl app works fine on iphone. And, screen usage to scroll with track pad and/or mouse does not respond. Get right side choices even tho I have used tracp pad and/or mouse.

  • Creating Apple TV movs in iTunes

    I have a few movies in iTunes which won't sync with my Apple TV. So I right click on them and "convert for Apple TV".. it spends about an hour converting each file. But once finished I am left with a mov that is the correct run time and correct audio, but displays only a while screen for the duration. This has been for every movie I have tried to convert within iTunes.
    Anyone else experience this issue?

    Ignore. I have re posted this to the Mac forums... Accidently did it to the Windows forums.

  • Syncing all my devices (Apple TV, iPads and iTunes)

    Since my Apple TV get's it's songlist from my iCloud account, I want it to match my iTunes account.  I've started using a product called SuperSync to achieve this.  I have over 10,000 songs and really tired of messing with duplicates and the poor organization that iTunes does.  So I've made my laptop the hub for iTunes. It's a PC running Windows 8.1 and iTunes 11.1.5.5. My library in "Preferences" points to my M: drive which is a NAS device.  When I sync with the iCloud account, I get duplicates for all my current songs on my NAS device.  So what I did was to move all my music off to an external USB drive and allow the sync from iCloud into a clean directory on my M: NAS drive. My goal is once this is complete, to copy the M: drive to my E: drive (iTunes Media folder) and change the preferences in iTunes to point at my E: drive instead of M:.  After that I will use SuperSync to sync my files between my E: drive (local iTunes Library) to my M: drive (remote iTunes Library). This is the only way I can't think of that makes any logical sense.  Any other ideas??

    I would recommend to turn off the services that don't work properly or just disconnect your account for a moment and then add it back again.
    On iOS: "Settings > iCloud" then turn off the services or delete the account for a moment
    On the Mac: "System Preferences > iCloud
    In most cases this helps to refresh thy sync process.

  • When will apple put movies on iTunes Australia?

    cmon i have been waiting for ages for apple to put movies on australian iTunes. When will the do it?

    The lack of Movies and TV shows is not unique to Australia by any means. The reason that stores for different countries have different content is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies, film companies, TV companies and other copyright holders. These are quite often completely different from country to country and therefore all require their own individual contract negotiations. The varying content is not imposed by Apple, who would have a much easier job if they only had to maintain one multi-national store and deal with one set of licensees. However I believe the plan that was announced when the Movies were introduced is to roll them out to other stores sometime this year. However whether or even if the Australian and UK stores etc. get them in 2007 will depend on the negotiations with the film distributors for each region.

  • Apple Remote App and iTunes

    Hi
    I've got the latest software on iTunes and my Remote App for iPhone and iPad.  I've noticed from tint to time that when selecting the source in the Remote App (I.e. whether to play music / films etc from iTunes or my AppleTV I notice the icon for iTunes DJ appears (icon is several CDs stacked on each other).  This only appears very occasionally and I have no idea what triggers its appearance.  I would have though it should appear there all the time. 
    Anybody have any clues as to what is happening and why?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I have had and fixed a similar issue;
    Setup;
    Linksys ADSL router/model (4 port wired and wireless)
    LAN Network = 192.168.0.x
    Mac Mini wired into the router (on same LAN)
    Airport Express wireless (driving my stereo speakers and acting as a wireless client on the same LAN)
    Apple iPhone 3GS wireless with Apple Remore app
    iTunes 9.blah (last 9.x version before 10 havent upg yet, iTunes all configured to use airtunes, remote speakers and remote app etc)
    Now It will all work fine and dandy at first then if i stop itunes (and the remote app disconnects) after a while (5 to 10 mins) the mac goes to sleep to save power.
    The mac doesnt wake up again to accept the connection from the remote app.
    So I found an apple support article (cant find it now) that suggested that I set the "wake on lan" feature, this wakes the mac and itunes if the mac has slept. Its in the system preferences / energy saver (its something like "wake on lan" or "wake on network")
    This fixes it for me.
    Cheers

  • I'm unable to download Apple Keynotes vids and iTunes gimme an Error code (403)

    I'm unable to download "WWDC 2008 Keynote address / Apple Keynotes" and iTunes gimme an Error code (403). Would anyone tell me what to do?

    Either the service did not install when you set up iTunes, or it has been stopped for some reason.  If you are using Win7, go to the start orb, click, type services at the bottom. Then look in the window that opens for the Apple service(s), and start them all.  Then reload iTunes and try again.  If you don't find an Apple service, then you will need to install iTunes again, and be sure it is the current (10.2) version.

  • I rented a movie and itunes charged me for it, but it won't download completely. what to do?

    it says I have an insecure internet connection, but I tried downloading it on three different wireless networks that all said "connected." is there a way I can report this problem to itunes?

    Try closing the videos app and the. Launch it again and see if the movie will start playing again. You might even reset the iPad after you close the app.
    To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Multiple devices: Apple/iCloud IDs and iTunes

    Hi - I have a headache trying to figure this out reading articles on line.
    Can someone please provide a simple explanation to do the following, and being very clear on Apple ID vs iCloud ID? I can't believe this is so complicated, but judging by the number of stories on this, Apple really needs to put out something step by step.
    Currently I have one Apple ID and one iCloud ID, using the same email address, and also is the same as my iTunes account. I have a iPhone 5 tied to this, and manage my wife's 7th gen Nano using the same.
    I just got my son an iPhone 4S. I would like to manage all of the content on his phone (music, apps) off of my account, but I'm reading that he need to have his own Apple ID and iCloud ID to use FaceTime, iMessage, track his phone location, and to keep his iCloud documents separate from mine (which makes sense).
    So would someone be able to give me a quick step by step as to what needs to be done where on his phone, and if I can keep my email logged in on iTunes, or if we need to log in separately will we still have access to the same library?
    Thank you for any direction you can provide.

    My iphone 5s = apple id 1
    Husband iphone 4s = apple id 2
    My ipad = apple id 3
    Son #1 ipad mini = apple id 4
    Son #2 ipad mini = apple id 5
    For iCloud.. Not quite, you want the same ID for iCloud on your phone and iPad so you have the same info on each. (so perhaps ID 1 on both.
    But if you want to share your music (assuming lets say its your ID 1 that has the iTunes account), you should all use ID 1 for iTunes.
