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.

Apple TV Screensaver Interrupts Movies

I've had my Apple TV2 for over a year now, and this behavior only just started happening. I'll be watching a movie streaming from Netflix, and suddenly the screen fades to black, making me think the scene has done this intentionally, but if I leave it long enough, I'll see the default Apple TV screensaver photo slide show start. Meanwhile, the audio of the movie is still playing. If I hit the "play/pause" button on the remote, the movie picture returns.
I just "Restored" it a few days ago because it got stuck on the screen where it's trying to set the date & time but can't, and I found instructions here to "Restore" when that happens. This screensaver-interrupt behavior started then.
Thanks in advance for any help on how to fix this annoying bug!

Liked the humor, lets use the word copied to my external drive, would not want to destroy my new 3 TB drive!
I followed all of the directions and it did not resolve my issue of Apple TV being able to recognize the movie and listing it for viewing.
I have not changed the process of copying my movies to my hard drive since I starting converting over to Apple TV. I thought is was possibly a recent software update on my Wondershare program and I actually reverted back to older version and recopied the movie and it still would not work.
I compared the properties of the 3 movies that I recently copied having the problems, to various movies in my library and there seems to be no difference between any of the movies.
Is there a way to revert to an older version of ITunes and test that?

Apple TV3 - Home Sharing Photos

Hi all,
I would like to share photos with apple TV3 via iTunes "privat release".
On apple TV3 the option is available to take photos.
It tells that it has to be configured via iTunes/Erweitert/Fotos für Bereitstellung auswählen.
I marked the folders with the photos to share, but unfortunately the access via applte TV3
is not possible.
Is there anybody with an idea?
Thanks in advance

It's a standard JPEG file. It's bizarre - I copied that file alone to iPhoto and changed my Apple TV photo sharing preferences to point at the iPhoto application. Worked fine.
Reverted the sharing settings back to the original folder location with all my 5,000 or so photos in and it also worked fine. Seems that a simple 'reboot' of the settings has resolved the problem.

Apple TV3 photo stream not displaying newest to oldest

This has been really frustrating me. My Apple TV 3 photo stream is configured correctly. I can see my photos. There are 628 photos in the stream. The first four photos have a title at the bottom that says "Photos From Last Week." Then when I scroll right, the text says "Photos Older than Two Weeks." However, instead of letting me scroll through them newest to oldest, the first photos are the OLDEST photos, so if I want to see photos from the last month, I have to scroll all the way through hundreds of photo stream photos to get to the newest photos. Why is this happening and how can I fix it?
Thank you,
Frustrated

First make sure iCloud and Photo Stream are installed on your PC. Connect the iPad (or iPhone) to your PC with the USB cable and start iTunes on your PC. Once your iPad/iPhone shows up under "Devices" in the sidebar (which you may have to enable), click it. Then click "Photos" at the top of the iTunes screen on your PC. Check the "Sync Photos from" box, and then under that, click "Selected folders." (Ignore the pulldown menu to the right of "Sync Photos from" -- the important thing is to tick "Selected folders.") A pane should open up below that with a list of folders including "Photo Stream." Choose that and then at the bottom of the screen click Sync. This worked for my Windows 7 box.

Why Does Apple TV3 Slideshow Display iPhotos in Incorrect Order?

I have an Apple TV3 connected to my Mac running OS X 10.9.3. The Apple TV3 is connected wirelessly to the Mac. I have several questions:
Why can I not show Slideshows I have created in iPhoto on my Mac on the Apple TV3? I can only show iPhoto Albums from the Mac on the Apple TV. I have spent considerable time preparing a large number of iPhoto Slideshows and am frustrated and disappointed that they cannot be shown on my TV. Apple did not mention this lack of capability in their advertising, saying that slideshows can be shown seamlessly from the Mac to the TV. Is there any way to show iPhoto Slideshows on the Apple TV3??
When I use the 'slideshow' application on the Apple TV3 to view the photos in iPhoto Albums, pictures will randomly show up out of order. I cannot tell if there is a structure to the appearance. Sometimes a photo from day 4 of a trip will randomly show up on day 1, while later a photo from day 2 will show up again on day 6. Again, this is very frustrating when showing photos to family and friends, the prime reason why I bought the Apple TV3. Why is this random display occurring? How do I stop it?
I have videos from my cameras inserted into the Slideshows and Albums in iPhoto, which run as intended on my Mac without any problems. However the videos will not show up on the 'slideshow' in Apple TV3. Again, why not, and is there a way to show them on the TV?
I am a computer layperson, so I would greatly appreciate a response in simple English, without the jargon, if possible. I quite often have difficulty in understanding the responses in the threads for other topics.
Thank you in advance for any responses.

Actually, this is incorrect. You must have a direct reference to the component instance to access the clientId. Filling in a String value that matches the for="..." attribute in h:message does not work. Furthermore, since UIComponent.getClientId requires a FacesContext instance argument, you end up with something like this:
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(
this.getComponent().getClientId(
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance()
new FacesMessage( "This is not I18N!")
V/s this:
this.getComponent().addMessage( "i18nKey");
I do agree that JSF needs some input to get better. Hence this post.

Apple TV Screensaver stuck on Iphoto Album

I made an IPhoto album of friends pictures and set Apple TV screensaver to it. Worked fine. Now I'd like to change the screensaver's library back to IPhoto Events or Photos and can't find those libraries on Apple TV screensaver. All I get is the "friends" album. How do I get the IPhot "Events" and "Photos" libraries back?

Ok. If you just wanted to view your library manually then you would just make sure all pictures have been selected in iTunes (file - home sharing - choose photos to share). You can then view them under the Computers icon on Apple TV.
If you want to mirror, native use will require a Mac from 2011 or later, running OSX 10.8 or later. Older hardware can use 3rd party software like Airparrot. You would then just create the slideshow on your Mac and activate mirroring to display on your HDTV via Apple TV.
Note: both methods require the computer to be on. Home sharing will need iTunes to be open as well.

Why can`t I get my complete library from Itunes to show on my Apple TV3?

Why can`t I get my complete library from Itunes on my Imac to my Apple tv3? I only got the option for music and photo`s. I want internet radio to show too

Internet radio is not part of your iTunes library. There is a separate section on the ATV for radio if you wish to use or you can use airplay via iTunes.

Can you still save flickr searches in Apple TV screensaver?

Does the Apple TV screensaver still have the ability to save Flickr searches for later use? I remember having a button to do it before, and I know I was able to figure it out once, because I have one saved search stored on the device. But I can't see how to do it now.
This is in Settings > Screen Saver > Photos > Flickr. There's a "Saved Searches" section in the menu there, which lists my old search, but I can't find anywhere in the current search UI to save a search, or to delete my existing saved search.

I usually use a different method, however this website http://audiko.net/ is a very easy method to do this with.

Can I use my 500gb time machine to my movies and view them on apple tv3

Is it possible to load my movies onto my 500gb time machine and view them using my apple tv3 via AirPlay?

Me again. I'm pretty sure I found a solution to my problem. I had changed the order of my slides more than once, and it turned out that the "wrong" sequence that Apple TV was using for my slides was the original sequence, not the latest sequence. I found that when I deleted the Apple TV Photo Cache folder and database, it got rebuilt by iTunes and the slide sequence was correct. I have no reason why the order did not automatically get updated. I'm on the rails now!

Is there a cure against apple tv3 being unable to open videos or music from itunes library?

HI!
I recently bought an apple tv and was trying to playback video and audio files on it.
activation of homesharing has been rather smooth (although i did have to open and close itunes several time). apple tv3 is able to download the library and lets me surf it.
my problems start when i attempt to open more than one video/song (one after another of course). It shows this circle which indicates download but does nothing. i'm able to exit from this screen but any attempt to open any file afterwards brings me the same result - running circle/star with no playback.
i read support info on the apple page and have followed more or less all recommendations, starting with allowing tcp/udp ports, making sure taht itunes is not on firewall, disabling power management on my wireless adapter, etc.
the most exciting thing is that i have the same problem if i run remote app on my iphone and/or ipad - it stops seeing itunes after a while. at the same time if i pair my ipad/iphone with itunes manually (using 4 digit password) it works smoothly.
tech specs: latest itunes running on win 7, latest software running ipad/iphone/appletv. connection over wifi.
i assume there must be a bug in the way itunes communicates with devices in the apple ID related homesharing. otherwise i can't explain why remote app works smoothly with itunes library in password pairing mode.
Has anyone faced anything similar and found a cure against the problem?
I hear different opinions re firewall, antivirus software (i use kaspersky). i'm not technical guy but assume if those pieces of the system allow to play one or two songs and then freeze, i don't think that the problem is in those pc.
WOudl be grateful for constructive feedback, hopefully with an easy solution:)
P.S> airplay from ipad, itunes, iphone works perfectly and without glitches.

Is this happening when playing from iCloud or locally from iTunes on your computer? If it is from your computer is the computer going to sleep? There is some bug in ATV that causes it to have problems being able to wake a computer that has gone into sleep mode. Some times it works fine and then sometimes for like a week ATV will not be able to WAKE the iMac. This can also be a problem if you are using an external hard drive and the hard drive is going into sleep mode. Also is iTunes running. If iTunes is not on then ATV can not connect to get content.

My iphone was stolen. If i buy a new one and to register with the same Apple ID, my photos will be recovered in the new device?

If you have a backup of the old phone that backup contains camera roll photos. Restore from that backup to get your camera roll photos back

Can i use the apple tv3 to connect a blu-ray player to the internet through the ethernet port?

I Have a blu-ray player which can access teh internet but only through a wired connection. Unfortunately, do to some renovating a can't really pass a wire from my router to the player. I was thinking of getting the express base station and hooking up an ethernet cable and getting it to connect that wy. However, for just an extra 10$ i can get teh apple tv and started to wonder if it would do the same.
Anybody know if i connect an an ethernet cable between my blu-ray player and apple tv3 if it will be able to connect to the internet?
Thanks for you help!

Your blu-ray play can't play to your AppleTV, neither using a wired connection or wi-fi.
AppleTV only support compressed format. Therefore, your AppleTV require your content to be within your iTunes library and on the supported format; http://www.apple.com/appletv/specs.html
There are however wireless devices on which you can plug an HDMI cable. I don't know the price of such wireless devices but you'll find them on the net.

When trying to add music to a slide show from my PC to TV through Apple Tv the photos are fine but I get an error message that says the music cannot be downloaded.

Because the location for each song in your library is on your hard drive. If the hard drive isn't there, how can iTunes play it?
You'll have to move/copy the music from your hard drive to your computer's hard drive.
Basically, EASIEST way to do all this, if you don't care about your play counts, etc...
-Delete EVERYTHING from iTunes, so that your library is now empty.
-Go to "Advanced" inside of the "Preferences" window, found in the "Edit" drop-down. You can also access Preferences by pressing Ctrl+, (Press Ctrl and the comma key)
-Change your iTunes Media Folder Location to something simple, but on your computer. I use C:/iTunes. Make sure "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy files to...." are both checked. You can close Preferences now.
-Now, drag and drop your music from your hard drive into your iTunes library. iTunes will automatically add the music to your library, as you would expect, and also creates a copy of each file to place into that iTunes Media Folder you just created.
Shouldn't have any more problems...

Apple tv3 toslink output no sound

I have bough an Apple TV3 only to see the the audio output is toslink and not 3.5mm jack, which is what I have. All the sound systems I found with toslink wore too expensive so following a comment of another user here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3083434?start=0&tstart=0
I bough a toslink to rca converter. So I´m sending the audio from toslink to the converter, then from the converter I have an RCA cable that turns into a 3.5mm jack.
I have my Apple TV3 connected to my projector thru HDMI, but it is sending the sound to the projector aswell (which has horrible sound quality). So how do I get it to send the sound thru the toslink exit instead?
thank you

The first thing to determine with the audio is to find out which device is a having a problem by using either one (or preferably both) with another known working device.
if your Mac can see 10 other networks it is without much doubt experiencing interference.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different equipment, doing different things, in different locations. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
