Apple tv remote interacts with iTunes at the same time as Apple tv

Whenever I'm using the remote for my Apple TV I found that Itunes on my MacBook starts changing movies, turning up and down the volume and it gets in the way of what I'm actually trying to do, it's quite anoying.
Any idea why or how can I fix this?
Thanx

If you don't want to use a remote with your computer the easiest thing to do is just to turn the IR off. (System Preferences > Security > General, click on the Advanced button in the bottom right corner - If the button is greyed out, click on the lock icon and enter your administrators password))
If you still want to use your computer remote then you must pair your computers remote with the computerAND the Apple TV remote with the Apple TV.
To pair a remote with a device hold down the menu and FF buttons together for six seconds or until you see a chain icon on screen (best take the computer into another room, or turn it off, when you do this)

Can you manage a single library from two Pcs with iTunes at the same time?

Dear all,
I have a laptop and a desktop pc. Currently all my music and itunes are on the laptop. My laptop hard disk is filling up, so i want to move all the music off to the desktop. And yes i'd like to keep all the music in one location on the desktop pc. But ideally i'd like to be able to import new music to the library from both PCs, and also be able to modify the playlists and other details from both PCs. I looked at Sharing but that doesn't seem to let the non-owner to change the playlists....
Any ideas how i can set this up?
Thanks a lot, Dave

The AE has multiple ports that can be expanded using hubs that we can hopefully connect the existing 3 TV sources, and can receive / transmit to multiple computers but can it operate the iTunes, internet distribution, and TV output (with switching TV inputs via the iMac & AE Utility) at the same time or do we need multiple AEs and another computer?
The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) does not have a TV or video output.
The AEBS, just like any other router, supports multiple clients simultaneously. Of course there is always bandwidth limitations for any device. So in theory the AEBS can support all of that. In reality the performance of each service will depend on the bandwidth used by each and the bandwidth available. This is no different than any router.

I synced my 3G with itunes for the first time and lost all contacts and information on phone, help?

I synced my 3G iphone with itunes for the first time, and lost everything on my phone. how do i get it back?

You don't.
You synced your iPhone with iTunes for the first time after how long?
And this didn't happen by syncing only. This means you transferred the backup for another iPhone or you restored the iPhone with iTunes. It is not possible for everything to be lost by syncing alone. All iTunes content on your iPhone can be lost but not any photos in the Camera Roll and the same for contacts unless you synced contacts with an empty address book application on your computer.

Is it possible to connect the iPad to an Infocus and a remote for ppt presentations at the same time?

I've always used PC and I'm planning on making the transition to Mac. That's why I'm considering buying an iPad. Today I went to Best Buys and the Mac guy told me that it isn't possible to connect the iPad to an Infocus and a remote for ppt presentations at the same time. Is that true? I'm a speaker and that was the main reason I was considering buying an iPad, so I didn't have to carry my laptop. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your reply. Looks like it can as I have just found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKp02y4JXVs

I downloaded two movies from itunes at the same time (both free digital copies from a dvd) and when they finished downloading... they disappeared. I've not been able to re-download them or find them.. anywhere. Any suggestions for tracking them down?

If you downloaded them on your computer's iTunes then they should have gone into the Movies part of your iTunes library, if on a device (iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch) then into the Videos app - they haven't appeared there ?
If you downloaded on your PC and they don't show in the Movies section then you could try searching for them by name (or part of their name) via windows explorer and see if that finds them. Or if you downloaded them on a device and they aren't in the Videos app then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding them, and if not can you find them via the device's spotlight search screen (swipe your first homescreen to the right) ?

how can I record a guitar and my voice (only voice with mic) at the same time ? I have one interface with Input 1 mic, Input 2 guitar, everything is working correct, but how can I activate multi recording or something like that... thanks

Set your inputs on your channel strips and make sure you have one set to input 1 and the other input 2. Arm the 2 audio tracks(the "R" in the track header. They will turn red and flash), then hit the record button.

Is it possible to listen to music through bluetooth and be on a call with earbuds at the same time?

Is it possible to listen to music through bluetooth and be on a call with earbuds at the same time?
I would like to be able to talk on my iPhone with the EarPods while playing music via Bluetooth in my car. Are there any third party products that will allow this?

Sorry, iOS will pause the music playback when you are on the phone call. You can set iOS to use bluetooth for your audo playback on your music app, and select the earpods for the phone app, but as soon as you answer the phone call, iOS will pause the music playback. This is a core OS feature, so you will not find any certified iOS app that will do what you want.
As a side note, please use extra caution when using your ear pods while driving. It is not safe as you may not hear emergency vehicles, car horns, railroad crossing bells, etc., and it is illegal in many states (in the US).

The iPad has a micro-SIM card slot - nothing special or unique about it.
The iPad is not sold as carrier locked.

How to fix wireless apple keyboard that ceased pairing with imac at the same time the keyboard on my ipad2 disappeared right after I updated osx vs. 10.8.5 sent out by Apple

I updated to OSX vs. 10.8.5 sent out by Apple on Oct 4,2013. My wireless
Apple keyboard is no longer paired to my imac and at the same time I noted that the keyboard on my ipad2 no longer exists. At first I thought it was an icloud issue but am wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem.

I downloaded 10.8.5 Supplementary and this time there was a picture of my keyboard with the suggestion that I power it on, which I did many times. Finally re-booted my imac and shut down BlueTooth on my ipad. I now have a keyboard back on the ipad and my wireless keyboard on the imac is working.

Using TWO iTunes at the same time on different monitors on Mac Pro:

Here is what I want to do:
I want to use a Mac Pro with two displays to play videos from iTunes in full screen mode on the second display while simultaneously playing music not associated with the videos on the main display.
Is this possible or do I have to get a completely separte application to play the videos on the second monitor?

I don't know of any way to get iTunes to play two different things at once, nor to get two instances of iTunes to launch at the same time. So I think you'll have to play either the music or the videos with another app.

HOW TO GENERATE FINITE AND CONTINUOUS PULSE TRAIN WITH USB6216 AT THE SAME TIME?

Hello.
I am using a USB6216 DAQ and need to generate a 20 kHz signal using the
ct0 output and at the same time I need to generate a finite number of
pulses, say 9, on a software trigger using the second counter output
ct1.
Currently, I have two VIs that can do this separately, but when I want
to integrate these into one single VI y get an error in the finite
pulse train for ct1 that indicates that the requested task is already
reserved. I am thinking this has to do with the fact that maybe both
types of task use the same timebase but I have not found the way to
solve this problem.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thank you.
Sincerely
JSL

Hello.
If anybody is interested, the problem is solved.
There is no resource confilct if I generate the 20 kHz continuous pulse
signal using the frequency out terminal, and this way I can use both of
my counters as I please with no problems.
It's kind of fun to answer one's own questions...
Sincerely
JSL

Connecting a used iPhone with iTunes for the first time

When i bought my 5s end of last year i switched it on coming out of the box, without connecting it to iTunes. I started making back-ups to iCloud.
Now i want to connect it to iTunes to make a back-up, but iTunes thinks it's a new device and only proposes me either to restore an old back-up, or to start using the device "as new".
I'm afraid of losing everything chosing that last option, and the last back-up on my iMac must be one of my iPhone 4 so i wouldn't want that either.
Now how can i make a back-up with iTunes in that case?

not sure if you read what i wrote..
iTunes only proposes me to either restore an old back-up, or to start using the device "as new".
So it's not possible to click any backup button in this case

Sharing the same itunes at the same time

i want to be able to play film for kids on apple tv whilst i listen to music in different room via the network is this possible, its on the same itunes so when i usually go to play some music i end up turning their film off

it ought to work. you would choose the content to be played on TV from within the TV interface and select the content to be streamed to your remote speakers from iTunes on your Mac.
