Apple tv2 doesn't show picture subfolders

Hi, I'm having Problems with my Apple tv 2.
I'm using Win XP and Picasa and everything on the pc is in fine shape, means all Pictures are sorted in subfolders - but on my Apple-tv there is only one folder with lots of pictures in it. No sorted subfolders with no system. Watching Pictures that way makes no sense and no fun.
Does anyone out there have any solution for that... Or can anyone tell me what to do?
Thanks!
Christian

If you select a folder for sharing the Apple TV will see any folder within that folder as a separate album, but it won't see folders within those folders separately.

  • Apple TV doesn't show all pictures in photo stream

    I have about 1000 pictures in my photo stream, but my Apple TV doesn't show all of them. It shows only 304 photos. How can I get all my photos to my Apple TV via photo stream? I have the latest Apple TV and the latest operating system on it.
    Edit:
    And I have tried to reset Apple Tv and photo stream.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there (subject to a 1,000 photo limit) until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
    The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

  • Mavericks's Messages doesn't show picture instead it's a file to download

    Hi Everyone,
    I installed Mavericks and now Messages app doesn't show pictures messages from senders, but it's a file to download. I still see the picture I sent out but not pictures coming in. I didn't have that issue with Mountain Lion. Can someone please help? Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Messages 8 in Mavericks seems to handle pictures differently thnan Messages 7.x.x (Mountain Lion) and the iChat versions before that.
    It seems it is now a function to "syphon" off pics to an Attachment folder and show only the spyglass item in the Conversations (iMessages) or Chats (buddies) to "recall them causing them to open in Preview.
    It seems this will happen at different points time wise but has some relationship to how far the pic may have disappeared "up" the Chat.
    This chat with "myself" spread over an AIM and an iMessages chat with my iPhone shows older item I sent not being displayed but one between Christmas and New Year still shows.
    If I have the top hat pic on the left that is from my iPhone using the iPhone number.
    Some are just the sync coming back which then show the Sig pic of the Mac Send of the iMessage.
    I did have an issue where new Pics sent from the iPhone were going to the Downloads folder and not showing in the Chat window at all.
    Nor could I iMessages the iPhone.
    I could select the iPhone Number to send it too but as soon as I hit the enter key the Conversation seems to completely disappear and nothing was sent.
    I deleted com.apple.ichat.plist for ~/Library/Preferences
    Open the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder and enter that path in the dialogue box.
    find the file and Drag it to the Trash.
    Restart the app.

  • Apple TV doesn't show up in my iTunes devices list

    Hey, I tried to post this question an hour ago but apparently my crappy 2.16 GHz intel 2 core duo iMac with 3 GB, 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM can't handle anything else while it is pointing out in iMovie '09 that none of my HD video is stable enough to take advantage of the stabilization feature.
    Anyway, here's my second attempt at seeking assistance for the most pressing of the many complications I am faced with as a Mac user.
    I can no longer see my Apple TV in the list of devices in iTunes on my iMac. This happened after I downloaded the most recent software update for my Apple TV, and after my step-father-in-law hooked me up with a home entertainment system. I have noted below with "CHECK!" the tasks I have performed in my attempts to maintain a love affair with Apple:
    Verify that you have the latest version of iTunes installed. CHECK!
    Verify that you have the latest version of Apple TV software installed. CHECK!
    Verify Apple TV is powered and properly connected to your television and you can navigate the Apple TV interface. CHECK!
    Verify Apple TV is properly connected to your network and the network is properly configured. When configuring Apple TV, if you do not see your wireless network, exit the selection screen by pressing the Menu button then go back in and the software will rescan. DUMB THIS ONE DOWN, APPLE. HOW DO I VERIFY APPLE TV IS PROPERLY CONNECTED TO MY NETWORK? WHY NOT SAY, "CHECK THAT APPLE TV SHOWS UP IN THE iTUNES DEVICES LIST" AS A TROUBLESHOOTING OPTION WHEN SOMEONE SAYS THAT THEIR PROBLEM IS THAT THEIR APPLE TV DOESN'T SHOW UP IN THEIR iTUNES DEVICES LIST". THAT'D BE HELPFUL.
    Verify network connectivity on Apple TV by playing a movie trailer in Movies > Trailers. CHECK (BUT *** IS THAT "BIG MAN JAPAN" MOVIE TRAILER ABOUT?)
    Verify that the computer you are using can access the iTunes Store. CHECK!
    If you're using Apple TV in a school or office environment, make sure Apple TV is on the same network segment as your computer (check with your network administrator) or else iTunes won't see Apple TV. NOT APPLICABLE
    For more information on how to properly set up your Apple TV, see the Apple TV Users Guide. UH, I BOUGHT THIS THING 1.5 YEARS AGO. DO I NEED TO REALLY GO BACK TO THAT?
    Restart iTunes (Quit or Exit and then reopen iTunes). CHECK!
    Reconnect Apple TV to iTunes OH THANKS. THIS IS GOOD ADVICE. *** DO YOU MEAN BY RECONNECT APPLE TV TO iTunes?
    If that doesn't address the issue, then:
    Reset HOW?
    Restart your computer. CHECK!
    Rejoin network (wireless) and/or Restart your network router ***? HOW? WHERE TO I CLICK?
    Reinstall iTunes OH SNAP! I'LL DO THAT IF NOBODY HAS ANY BETTER ADVICE.
    If you have Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard), click here for information on configuring Firewall. SHOOTSKIE, I WILL NEED TO GO BACK TO THE WEBSITE TO CLICK THAT LINK.
    For Mac OS X 10.4 and earlier, make sure UDP port 5353 (Bonjour) is open on your firewall. If you use Windows Firewall, follow the steps here. SHOOTSKIE, AGAIN, NEED TO GO TO WEBSITE TO CLICK LINK, BUT I AM HOOKED UP THROUGH A WIRED CONNECTION DO I STILL NEED THIS STUPID PORT STUFF?
    Otherwise, if you use other firewall software or hardware, check the software documentation on how to open UDP port 5353. IT IS SO COMPLETELY, RIDICULOUSLY LAME THAT "OPEN UP UDP PORT 5353" EVEN NEEDS TO BE PART OF THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR GETTING MUSIC FROM YOUR COMPUTER ONTO YOUR TV."
    If you use Windows, try disabling services and startup items that may be conflicting. UHH, WHY WOULD I EVER HAVE WINDOWS? I SPEND 10-12 HOURS A DAY ON WINDOWS AT WORK, CRASHING MAYBE ONCE EVERY FEW WEEKS. I SPEND 30-60 MINS A DAY ON MY iMAC, CRASHING 1-2 TIMES A DAY. SERIOUSLY THOUGH, WINDOWS ***** TOO. TECHNOLOGY *****. PERIOD.

    Hi everyone. I am typing here on my brand new 24-inch iMac. So far it's great! However, the issue I had with the Apple TV is unrelated to the iMac itself, and I wanted to let everyone know what the solution was to my Apple TV issue.
    Until early this Sunday morning when I discovered this solution, my iMac would not sync with the Apple TV. This problem began after the most recent Apple TV software update. I neglected to mention in my previous posts that my Apple TV was connected to the Internet via an Ethernet connection.
    Prior to the most recent software update, I believe that my Apple TV communicated wirelessly with my iMac and via an Ethernet connection to the iTunes store. With the latest Apple TV update, the sync between the iMac and the Apple TV does not work if the Apple TV is connected to the Ethernet. My solution was as follows:
    1. Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the Apple TV. Do not reconnect.
    2. Restore Apple TV to the factory settings. I'm not in front of my Apple TV at the moment but navigating through the Apple TV menu to reset the settings was fairly straightforward for me.
    3. After resetting the factory settings and following the instructions, I was able to see the Apple TV in my computer's iTunes, but I was stuck with the super old software version from summer '07 when I bought this thing (i.e. before you could rent movies or watch anything in HD on the Apple TV).
    4. Look for the software update on the Apple TV (again, fairly intuitive by navigating the menu on your TV) and download/install the latest update.
    5. If your problem was due to having your Apple TV connected to the Ethernet, I think this should do the trick! It should now show up on your computer's iMac and it should automatically start syncing your iTunes content although I did have to direct it to sync my photos.
    p.s. Does anyone know how I can let Apple know that this issue exists with the latest Apple TV update? The guys at the Genius Bar at the mall I went to in Pleasanton, CA couldn't find any notes in their knowledge database about issues with the latest Apple TV software update and I think it's important that Apple knows about this.
    p.s.s. I think Apple should make all of us, their consumers, more aware of how to let Apple know about these issues because this issue was so frustrating and throughout the whole troubleshooting process I felt very helpless and would have felt so much more positive about Apple if I just had a forum in which I could let Apple know I was having this issue (above and beyond this user forum through which I ended up losing much of my iTunes album artwork after following one person’s advice).
    So if that forum exists, please let me know and let's brainstorm as to how to get more people like me to be aware of that forum so other people don't experience the same frustrations I have experienced.
    p.s.s.s. I haven't tried reconnecting my Apple TV to the Ethernet in my home. While it will probably be slower to rent and download movies wirelessly, I don't care that much as I'm thinking I will start renting movies through Netflix instead and just use the Apple TV to watch my homemade videos on my TV.
    But I am curious, why does Apple charge so frickin' much to rent a movie on the Apple TV? $4.99 for an HD movie? Everyone who has NetFlix tells me it is sooooo much cheaper and very easy to use. And to be honest, this makes me mad. Not that there is a cheaper option for renting movies/TV shows. That makes me happy. What makes me mad is that Apple charges so much to rent a movie when it doesn’t benefit them and it doesn’t benefit me. I think Apple does a lot of good things, but I think being able to rent (or even better, to subscribe to) media that you can watch (almost) instantaneously in your home is the wave of the future and still relatively new. If Apple wants to make money off of this service in the long term, they need to start by offering movies for super cheap, even taking a loss off the price they pay the production companies if they have to, because right now it's still all about adoption (i.e. getting as many people as Apple possibly can to think about renting a movie or *please please* a TV show through Apple ).
    So I guess I feel like it's a lose-lose for Apple and me. Through Apple, to rent a movie (or *please please* a TV show) I will pay much more than I would with Netflix. But if Apple can walk away with an untarnished reputation after creating a special headphone input into their original iPhone device to make extra money out of nothing, then maybe they can do no wrong and we just need to keep blindly giving them our moolah? Can somebody please let me know how I could get a better job or at least a raise so that I can give Apple all of the money they are trying to squeeze out of me?
    p.s.s.s.s. I am soooo sorry Apple, but the other day when I was at your store looking for the Firewire adaptor I needed to transfer files from my Firewire 400 on my old iMac to my new iMac via the Firewire 800 adaptor, I just couldn’t stomach the huge markup. I imagine you guys make a ton of money by ridiculously marking up your accessories over what one could pay elsewhere.
    I know the rest of your consumers are happy to pay $50 for buying the cable in your store and I would like to apologize right now for using your in-store computers to search for the alternative pricing which I found for $19.99. I don’t believe any of your other customers saw me doing this, but if they did, please accept my sincere apologies. In the current economic environment, reputation is everything and it would be unfortunate for all of us if the Apple masses felt they were being taken advantage of.
    Wow, I think I’ve got some issues with Apple that I need to work out. Anyone know a good therapist?

  • TS1453 Apple TV doesn't show up in my iTunes.  I've done all the troubleshooting steps, updated all software, restarted Apple TV, wireless router and computer. Devices doesn't show up at all in my sidebar.Apple TV doesn't show up in preferences

    Help.  My Apple TV won't sync with my computer.  I've done all the troubleshooting tips, but Apple TV doesn't show up in my Preferences under devices.  
    2. Reconnect Apple TV to iTunes.
    Choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (Windows), click Apple TV, and make sure "Look for Apple TVs" is selected.
    I see no option to select "look for Apple TV's" in Preferences, and there is no device list at all in my sidebar.
    3. If Firewall is on in Mac OS X (in the Sharing pane of System Preferences), make sure iTunes Music Sharing is selected.
    There is no option to select iTunes Music Sharing in my System Preferences - see screenshot
    I've updated all software, restarted Apple TV, my wireless router, and my computer.  Both my computer and the Apple TV are connected to the same wireless network and both are operating properly.  They just wont connect to each other.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    FIRSTLY: bookmark following for further reference (it describes basic setup, both to link for syncing and to stream - from any computer.)
    Apple TV (1st generation): Differences between syncing and streaming" )
    Now as to your problem: If you check under "Computers" in the "Settings" menu you will most likely see the name of your iTunes library Greyed out. IF that's the case, you'll basically need to re-setup your ATV., you can do so as follows (instructions are intentionally over described, but basically your disconnecting then reconnecting your ATV1. Downside (which seems to come with all methods is that you'll have to resync all your media)
    **A (not ideal but effective solution)
    If ATV 1 had been working but suddenly 'disappeared" from iTunes sidebar
    The following solution will almost surely work  to regain your ability to Sync:
    QUIT iTunes
    Select "Computers" from "Settings" Menu.
    Select your "greyed out" iTunes library.
    This will bring up a window named "Disconnect from iTunes"
    You're now given the choice to Cancel, or disconnect. WITH THE WARNING that if you disconnect any  content synced with iTunes, will be erased. (in fact it will be removed from your ATV but not your computer)
    Assuming ALL of your media IS on your computer, Go ahead and disconnect.
    Follow instructions in the Apple doc above about setting up your ATV as a paired computer.
    After you ATV gen1 reappears in the sidebar. Reset all your desired syncing preferences,
    Begin syncing.
    All will be fine again, (at least till the next time this occurs.) I've had to do this twice this year.
    ALTERNATELY:
    SHARING (a QUICKER, less destructive TEMPORARY solution (if you just want to play your media now)
    You CAN set your computer to Share by following instructions in the same doc under the heading:
    "How to connect to a shared computer"
    HOWEVER, this will not allow you to sync info.
    I've read alternate solutions on this board, one involved changing the name of your iTunes Library etc... you may wish to try this first (if it applies) https://discussions.apple.com/message/17943841?ac_cid=142432#17943841
    What I'd like to know: What causes this problem...  I'm suspecting iTunes updates, or any iTunes database issues or crashes. Or maybe too many visitors connecting to your other Apple devices (ATV 2 for example) or heck the weather in Guatemala...

  • My apple tv is registering on my tv - i can see it on my system info screen but the apple tv doesn't show up, as well my imac doesn't seem to let me share - so i don't know whats wrong, why my apple tv isn't working

    anybody able to help me with my setup for apple tv.  i've followed the directions in the guide and my tv doesn't seem to register in part.  it's weird because my tv system info identifies the apple tv but the screen never went black and it doesn't show anything, too, my imac doesn't seem to register the apple tv unit either

    I would try connecting it to another tv to see if it works there if it does
    then likely your tv can't handle the default resolution and you should lower it on the other tv
    if not then you should connect it by usb to the computer and use itunes to restore it's firmware

  • Apple TV doesn't show main menu and cannot connect to iTunes store

    I've been using my Apple TV almost everyday for the past week and i've had it for awhile and all of the sudden it only shows the "computer" and "settings" buttons. It looks like it's connected to the internet because it has an IP address, but it still doesn't show any of the usual buttons on the main menu. When I go to test network it says "cannot connect to itunes store," and says the same when I put in my username and password. I just entered same same username and password in my itunes with no issues so I know the username and password are correct. I've restarted my apple tv a couple of times. I tried to restore it and it says "the update was not successful. The apple tv update couldn't download at this time. Try again later." Agh! I don't know what else to do! Any suggestions are appreciated!!!! Thanks!

    A reboot will reset the connection to the network, as those 2 icons are the only ones that don't require an internet connection they are the only ones that will show up in the event of such an issue.

  • Apple TV doesn't show up in iTunes when AirPort Express is running at the same time - Can't play music on both Apple TV and AirPort Express speakers together

    Hi there!
    I am trying to play music from my Mac on multiple speakers, Apple TV and AirPort Express. But as soon as the AirPort Express station is plugged in, the Apple TV does not show up in iTunes anymore. When trying the same using iPhones Remote app it works perfectly.
    Does anyone of you have an idea why iTunes does not show me both Apple TV AND AirPort Express? (it has nothing to to with the IP adress as the adresses are different).
    Thanks for any help!

    As my english isn't too good I made a screenshot to show you what I mean.
    As you can see in the image below iTunes only shows me the computer speakers and the AirPort Express. But at the bottom you can see that iTunes actually recognized 3 different speaker (Mac, AirPort, Apple TV 2). Why does the Apple TV not show up in the multiple speakers window? Any ideas?

  • HT2693 How come my apple map doesn't show the map on apple standard map.. However, it does work on google map. I was trying to close the apple maps, restart, and many other ways but still didn't work. Please help me.

    A standard map on my iPhone 4s is suddenly not working. It shows the blue dot but it doesn't show the actual Map where I can see the streets.
    I don't know how to fix this problem. I did try so many ways even restarted iPhone but still not working... Please help me out.

    Hi JinHDK,
    Yes I worked previously but it's now not working. I did double click home botton and terminate the maps many time but still not working.
    The standard maps just not show any route only the blue dot (my location.)  I really don't know what to do. Btw, I used to live in SF but now I'm traveling to Thailand. One of my friend is using iPhone 4S as well but his maps is working. So I guess it is about its application on my phone...
    Thank you.

  • Apple mail doesn't show mail content when selected?

    I have done nothing new or strange with this application but since a few days ago I couldn't see mail content when I selected the emails.
    I can see the new emails It doesn't show their content when I select them. It simply says no message selected.
    Also when I double click to open the mail on a new page the application crashes. Any ideas? This is so frustrating!
    Btw, I'm using a Macbook Pro.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
              Envelope Index
              ExternalUpdates.storedata
    Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.
