Apple tv my tv programmes are not playing in widescreen even though rented movies are. Aditionally my photos on my iPhone 4 are also shown only in the middle of the screen? Why are not all films/programmes / photos filling the whole screen?

Just purchased Apple TV 2 & music videos purchased and films rented from iTunes play in 16:9 ratio and fill my 6 year old Samsung TV screen completely. However my photos and videos played by AirPlay play in the centre of the screen along with TV series purchased and played from iTunes. Why are not all played media filling the TV screen even though they are playing in 16:9 on the TV?

if the original material is not in widescreen appletv will not play it in widescreen
if it did it would mean that it had to cut off some of the image

  • Why multi day events are shown only on the first day in calendar (in month view)

    Why multi day events are shown only on the first day in calendar (in month view)?

    Figured it out - the event has to be marked as full day event in order to be shown in monthly calendar. Disregard my question.

  • I changed my Apple ID two weeks ago and I Accidently forgot to sign out of my iCloud on my iPhone 5C. now it wont let me change the iCloud ID to match my new Apple ID. How do I change my iCloud ID even though it is asking for the old ID?

    I changed my Apple ID two weeks ago and I accidently forgot to sign out of my iCloud on my iPhone 5C. Now it wont let me change the iCloud ID to match my new Apple ID. How do I change my iCloud ID even though it is asking for the old ID?

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • After upgrading my iPhone, I lost all my contacts..... and they were replaced with my wife's contacts even though she upgraded after I did. I did a time machine backup before I started the upgrade process, how do I get that saved data back to my phone?

    Hi bluegrandpanash,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you backed up your iPhone to iCloud before updating the software, first try the steps under "Restore from an iCloud backup" in this article to recover your data:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

  • How do I get my webcam working on my skype and yahoo messenger, even though it is working well on photo booth?

    How do i get my webcam working on my skype and yahoo messenger, even though my cam is working on photo booth ( and i am tlking of the mbp with latest OX).

    you need to go into the preferences of the actual programs and make the proper settings...
    Such as in Yahoo, go to preferences, Webcam tab, sub tab Video and make sure you have the proper camera selected in the drop down menu of video source. In your case built-in isight camera.

  • I recently downloaded a book and it will not open due to being incorrectly formatted. Even though I downloaded this FROM iTunes!!!! What is going on, I have the latest OS and iBook version....??????????

    I recently downloaded a book "In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day" and iBooks tells me its incorrectly formatted even though I downloaded this from iTunes and have the latest version of the iBooks app.  What is going on? I want a refund if this doesn't work.  My other books open fine.

    The Report a Problem link can also be found in iTunes/Store/View Account/Purchase History.
    Before asking for a refund, also try deleting the book and redownloading it.
    If you find that the iBookstore is does not meet your needs, you can try one of the others like Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Googlebooks, or Sony.

  • The file to download the app for Android is not working from my phone--it says that the file isn't there. However it does see the one for the Iphone (even though it can't use it). I'm very computer literate and am pretty sure the problem is on your end.

    The file to download the app for Android is not working from my phone--it says that the file isn't there. However it does see the one for the Iphone (even though it can't use it). I've tried it multiple times and continue to get the same message: "NOT FOUND The requested item could not be found". I also tried through the Market application on the phone but ended-up with the same result.
    I'm very computer literate and am pretty sure the problem is on your end. If this is the case then no one can download the app. I considered that perhaps because it's still in Beta that it was removed due to some other type of software issue. I would really like to use Firefox on my new Droid (2.0); when with this be available?

    Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
    Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly by typing this address into your phone's browser: http://bit.ly/fxbeta3
    (Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

  • HT204053 Why are calendars not synching between Mac and iPhone even though it shows as synching on info tab for iPhone? Mac on an OSX 10.6

    Can't synch iPhone calendar thru iCloud/iTunes method from iPhone to Mac. Shows in info for iPhone as automatic update, but it is not updating calendar on the Mac.  I have OSX 10.6.8.

    Thanks, that's what I feared. They assume POP3 users are willing to make a masive attempt to change their
    public email address. Fortunately my secondary account, Yahoo, provided IMAP when IOS provided a custom setup for it, and I found I was able to select it as an OS-X mail account too.
    As for why Notes weren't updating, I had not realized Notes had suddenly gained an account selector in both Mac and IOS and might be in various places. I was testing by changing existing notes resident on my Mac or USB iTunes synced from there. It works if I move them to the iCloud account and then change them.
    I realize now there was an offer at some point in iCloud setup to merge or move some existing things, but I wasn't doing that that day, and I didn't get anouther offer when I enabled iCloud for Notes and Mail!
    It might also help to go to setup->Mail... and set Fetch New Data to push, which should propagate the changes faster.

  • Can apple replace my 32g 3gs which is broken (under warranty) even though they are no longer sold??

    since they are not being sold any more can i still get a replacment??

    I also have a 32G 3GS (also under warranty), and it was having issues with the side volume on/off key and with 3G reception. I took it to the Apple Store, and I got a new version of the same model. It might have been refurbished -- don't know. But it's new to me. Though the side volume on/off key works just fine now, I'm still having some 3G access issues. But I just read some possible solutions for that in these forums and will try those next.

  • HT5621 I hve two email addresses and I cannot add the second to my Apple ID as it says it has been assigned to another person - me! I cannot update my apps on iphone 5 as there is conflict between the two addresses - password not working.

    Re the above problem now that I have more space to type.  My purchased apps seem to be in one ID and the phone and ITunes is in another.  I didn't have this problem before the recent update and it is very frustrating.  Before, I was able to use the same password for both IDs but now it is being rejected.  Any ideas please?  Will the phone shop be able to sort it out for me?

    Changed meaning created a new Apple ID or updated the existing Apple ID to use the new email address?
    The first method is incorrect.
    The second will allow the user to continue having access to the previously purchased content and app updates.

  • Results row shown only at the bottom and not at each value level

    Dear Experts
    I have a report based on a multiprovider consisting infosets and a cube.
    There are several row characteristics shown. 1 of these were set to show results row. But the results row is not shown at each value level but at across all its characteristics level, ie. at the bottom of  this characteristic. So, only 1 results row shown and not 1 results row per each value of this characteristic.
    Some other characteristics are showing multiple rows of results rows but at a certain grouping level and also not at per value level.
    Please advise what could be the cause.
    regards
    Pascal

    Dear Experts
    Solved.
    Due to the concept works like this:
    To see results row for a characteristic, must set it to the char infront, not to the char itself.
    But then when user re-arranges the position of the row chars, there could be an issue.
    Is this a constraint of BEx?
    regards

  • Why I cannot view any of my photo from my new iphone 5c, even though I took a lot of photos?

    I lost my iphone 4 and just bought iphone 5c, after back up all contact from iCloud I got only contact number and some e- mail.
    However, I got a problem to view my new photos. I took a lot of photos but I show 0 and nothing to be able to review.
    Please advise, it is strange as you have camera to take but not recording at all.
    Thanks,
    Jenny

    Just to be sure I understand your situation - you take a new photo and it does not appear in the Photos app, is that correct?
    Your post also mentions doing a backup (or do your really mean you did a restore from a backup) - but my reply is really focused on taking new photos; not seeing them is very unusual.
