  • Apple tv3 and airport express

    I don't know...... a way to send the music from Apple TV3 to an airport express?!
    Thanks for help!

    Both Apple TV and Airport Express are pulling the music from iTunes.
    Your question is a bit unclear.....are you trying to stream an online station from AppleTV over to Airport express so you can use the analog audio output on airport express?

  • Apple TV3 and network drive

    I like Home Share, but when is Apple going to give us Apple TV owners an option to stream our privately owned content from a network drive?  My Panasonic Blu-ray player does this, why not Apple TV.  Please add this option to Apple TV in the next firmware update?  Please?  Can somebody from Apple please respond to my request and maybe suggest this option to Apple for future firmware updates?  Please?  Home Share is cool, but I have to keep my power hungry computer running 24/7.  It would be nice to add a 2 drive raided NAS to my network and stream content to my home theater from said NAS, while using my Apple TV.  NAS drives only use a few watts from the wall, so this would save on my electricity bill. 

    The only way currently to do this is to jailbreak your apple tv and run XBMC on it.  It can be a little tricky to set up but it is possible.  I agree, this should work out of the box.  It is not clear why Apple is resisting this add-on.  Most folks don't have an extra computer that they can leave running for content sharing.  If they do, its an old one that is too slow to do this.'
    Probably not what you wanted to hear, but the truth.

  • Apple TV3 and the New iPad - I  WANT to stream the sound only

    Hey guys!
    I've got the new iPad and apple tv 3 which is great together!
    I have a receiver (which is located in the living room)  with Zone2 option and also have outdoor speakers which are connected to that Zone2.
    When I sit outside i want to use my great speaker system and use the outdoor speakers using AirPlay and ATV and stream the content to my ATV but the thing is that when i do that I lose my video on the device and the tv shows my video feed.
    That of course is a problem coz I enjoy my great speakers but can't watch the video (like YouTube video or something else)...
    Is there a way to stream the sound only to the ATV?
    I found discussions of people who don't manage to stream their video to the ATV and only managed to stream their sound but that was an error and things like firmware update solved their problem...
    Found no discussions of people who TRY to stream only the sound, like I want to...
    Does anyone have an idea that can solve my problem?
    Thanks a lot in advance!!!

    It's actually very easy and doesn't even require splitting the video stream and extracting the audio track from it (which is pretty easy if you have a desktop computer).
    If you don't want to play back protected content (non-music videos purchased from iTunes Store), all you need to do is getting GoodPlayer, letting it play audio in background (Settings > Background Audio) and connect to your ATV in non-AirPlay mirroring mode. It'll happily play back the audio track of the video while you can do anything in the foreground. (Note that, in addition to GoodPlayer, other background audio-playback players may also work - it's just that I've tested GoodPlayer in this regard between my ATV3 and iPad 3. Let me know if you need more - for example, a list - info on them.)

  • Apple TV3 and Time Capsule are SLOW

    Ive had an Apple TV for about 1.5 years.  I have been using an Airport Extreme as my home router with Comcast High Speed interet, and they have worked great together.. The speed was flawless.. and neve had to wait more than 10 seconds to start playing a movie.
    I just replaced my AE with a 2GB Time Capsule because my back up drive had broken.  Ever since my internet speed on Apple TV has gone to crap.  I use Itunes Radio alot, and now I can't get it to continuously stream.  I also use iTunes Match, and it constantly stops and starts while playing music.  As for movies, forget it... It takes forever to get it started, and when it does, it buffers every 3-5 minutes during the movie...
    At first I thought it was because I was backing up all the time, so I turned off Auto-backup on my MacBook Pro.  No change..
    Is the Time Capsule not as fast as an Airport Extreme?  I haven't changed anything on my ATV3... or my modem.  I leterally switched out the AE for the TC.. got my HD backed up.. and that's it..
    Regular interent seems fine (on my computer and ipad).. but Apple TV gets stuck all the time..

    You do need to spend a bit of time checking the speeds of everything involved.
    Exactly what model was the Extreme you were using??
    If you still have it available you can rearrange the network and run both the AE and TC.
    Certainly the AC model Extreme and TC are identical design and firmware, so there should be no real difference between them. The older models did have differences.. they used fairly different boards and different chassis.. I find placed side by side the Gen4 TC was slightly better wireless signal wise than Gen5 AE. (The TC is one Gen behind.. so they are the equivalent).
    To start to figure out your problem you need to do some work to figure out where the problem is.
    The WAN connection of the new TC has been reported as slow. The issue may not be the wireless, or lan side at all but the WAN connection to the modem. What model is the modem??
    Please do some testing to check if you are getting full WAN speed. Test by using a computer with ethernet only connection.. wireless off.. to an internet test site. If this shows full speed, then next test:
    Try by wireless with ethernet disconnected.
    Test the laptop in the same location as the ATV. What link speed do you get?
    Is the speed poor in this location?
    Give some feedback and we can think up some more ways to test the problem.
    There is one simple solution though.. plug the extreme back into network and run the TC in bridge behind it.

  • Apple TV3 and TV2 will not update to 5.2

    Same problem that seems to happen with every update. Brand new Apple TV is stuck at "Step One of Two." Same with old Apple TV 2. It will not update via wi-fi or ethernet cable. It will not update via iTunes. iTunes reports that the downloaded file is corrupted. Downloading the software at mirror sites and trying to use iTunes to update from the downloaded file also gives a report that the downloaded file is corrupted. Downloading 5.1.1 and attempting a restore from that file just hangs. I ran that all night with no progress.
    Both Apple TVs display severe artifacts on the screen, including screen freezing while the sound continues -- even on completely downloaded movies. The movies are basically unwatchable.
    Apple has been unable to fix these problems for years, now. I have an extensive iTunes movie library which is worthless because DRM prevents watching the movies using any other device. The way I see it, either give me an Apple TV that actually works or refund the money I spent on my iTunes movies.
    Between this and the stupid MacBook Pro wi-fi problems I may never buy an Apple product again.

    OK. I solved my issue.   Before changing your address on your Apple ID, you MUST be signed out of  iCloud and iTunes on your phone!  If your old email keeps reappearing on your phone  (and is grayed out), you'll have to go to your computer and change address back to the OLD  address.  Then, go back to phone and either (1) sign out or (2) remove the iCloud and/or iTunes apps which are opened  -  (which you'll be prompted to use old email address to verify). Finally, go back to computer and change email address back to the new one.      You'll then be able to set up apps on phone using the changed email address.
    Ugh, it took a while, but it worked!

  • Apple tv3 and WPA2 enterprise

    Hi
    Does Apple TV 3 support  WPA2 enterprise ?
    Regards

    If the Apple TV is a 2nd or 3rd generation (the small, black versions), then you can configure it.  Take a look at

  • Apple tv3 and 7.1 sound

    Yup, that should be the case it you wanted the sound card to do the decoding instead of the DVD application.

  • Canon HF G30 5.1 audio through iTunes and Apple TV3?

    Hi All,
    In brief - I've converted the AVCHD movie files to MOV files and MP4 files with ClipWrap and Handbrake, fully expecting resultant files to play surround sound through my system via Apple TV3 and iTunes. I have movies on my iTunes library playing surround sound audio from other movies, so I know it's not an ability issue with my equipment. I've tried various conversions in Handbrake and even by playing just the converted .MOV files imported into iTunes directly - with no success - all I get is stereo output from "6 channel" files.
    What major point am I missing please?
    Many thanks for your help and patience.
    Cheers
    Chris

    Hi,
    I experienced some DTS files in iTunes, with my AirPort Express some months ago, it was working fine on my Marantz receiver. A few days ago I wanted to listen to them again, only white noise... I wanted to rip by myself a DTS-CD, therefore I found this out. Apparently since AirTunes has been turned to AirPlay, it's not working anymore (?) / the same way.

  • After installing itunes 11.01.12 air-play doesnt work. the button is gone. already did everything on the checklist, everything is updated, like the receiver and apple tv3, but itunes can probably not see them?

    after upgrading to iTunes 11.01.12 the air-play button disapeared. the apple-TV3 and the receiver can communicate, but in my computer there is no button to play on any other speaker/unit. it seems that iTunes can find them. i did everything on the checklist, like check that all units are connected to the same wifi and have the latest firmware.

    The Apple TV doesn't have a browser and doesn't allow you to add your own features.

  • Apple TV and multiple speakers on Airport express

    Hi,
    I'm using Apple TV3 and 10.8.3 Mac with Itunes 11 and would like the flim audio to play on multiple (3) airport express' with speakers attached around the room all on same Wifi.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks

    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?

  • Apple TV3/Mac Mini G4/iPad 2 & 3/iPhone 4S

    Hi,
    I am currently have a 2008 13" MBP, iPad 2 & 3, 2 x iPhone 4S plus Apple TV3 and would like to get something to run iTunes to make use of the ATV3 displaying on the large LCD TV I have. I have a Synology NAS but it doesn't operate as a true iTunes server and want something else.
    I have been offered a cheap (£80) Mac Mini G4 (2005, 1.42GHz, 80Gb HDD, 500Mb RAM) and want to know what limitations I will encounter if I try to use it as the centre point of my home system.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Gareth

    Besides the really small hard drive limiting the amount of media it can store, no G4 Mini is able to run the latest version of iTunes. You can use your MacBook Pro if its hard drive is large enough, or if you are OK with using an external hard drive (connected to the laptop) for your iTunes Library.
    Here are the requirements for the latest version of iTunes:
    Macintosh System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel Core processor
    OS X version 10.6.8 or later
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
    I think a Mini is a great iTunes media server and you don't need an especially new model or fast CPU in it for it to work really nicely. Look for an inexpensive second-hand Mini that meets the requirements above and get a good high-capacity external hard drive to go with it.

  • Apple TV3 screensaver photos

    I have an apple tv3 and my screensaver photos are from a folder on my laptop, which just crashed. My photos still display on the screensaver however. Is there any way I can retreive those photos to put them back on my new computer?

    Unfortunately not.

  • Can you connect apple tv3 to itunes library without an internet connection?

                   I have an Apple TV3 and i am trying to connect it to my iTunes library on my computer. I have setup an access wireless point. Its a TP-Link TD-W8958. I dont have an internet connection on this wireless network becuase I am not living in my own house at this time and dont have a phone line however the guy at the Apple dealer store said i should still be able to connect my computer to the Apple TV3.
    When i go to Computer on the Apple TV it says turn on Home Sharing and asks for my Apple ID. It says it cannot connect to the store which makes sense becuase of no internet connection but surely there must be a way to still turn on home sharing and connect with my computer.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks
    Mel

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Homesharing needs to check home now and again to verify your account. Unfortunately you will need the Internet in order to be able to use your Apple TV in that way.
