Apple TVs playing the same play list simultaneously

I have two Apple TVs in seperate rooms.Is it possible to play the exact same play list (video or music) simultaneously on both Apple TVs since the content is streamed from the same main I-Tunes library?
It would be a great feature in particular for parties.

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
If you use itunes and send output to the tv's as external speakers then yes you can do this, but of course this will only work with audio.
It is possible to stream the same tunes/movies etc from two or more tv's at the same time, but you should be aware that they will be two (or more) separate streams and as such I doubt you would be able to manage to do this and keep the streams in sync with each other.

  • Multiple Apple TVs on the same network

    I teach at a school and have used an Apple TV in conjunction with my iPad for presentations. I find it invaluable. Other teachers at my school would like to do the same, but I'm told by our tech support that multiple Apple TVs on the same network cause problems. When I ask them what problems, they aren't sure. They just tell me that other school have experienced problems. Other than a wifi bandwidth problem, I can't imagine what kind of problem it would be. A collegue of mine wants to jump onboard but desn't want to make waves. Does anyone know of any problems?

    I have two Apple TV's, one in the living room and one in the bedroom... however, the living room is the only one that my iphone Remote APP is connecting with... I've named/tagged the two ATV's hoping that the Remote APP would provide me the option on which one to control, but it doesn't....
    I've confirmed that home sharing is "on" with in all devices "settings"...
    Any suggestions?

  • Using 2 Apple TVs on the same network

    Is it possible to use 2 Apple TV units, each connected to its own HDMI equipped television, but each utilizing the same Wi-Fi network?

    You can use 2 Apple TVs on the same network independently. I currently have such a setup.
    My question then comes up: How do you isolate AirPlay menus (or "forget" the other Apple TV) so that you don't inadvertently start streaming something to the other Apple TV instead of to the one you want, or vice versa, seeing a random YouTube or photo stream in the middle of your movie.
    Basically, I live on a different floor with someone on the same wifi network as me. We can't have separate wi-fi networks. We can see each other's Apple TV in the AirPlay menu and it's causing all sorts of problems with accidental interruptions.

  • Can I use 2 Apple TVs on the same network? Must they have the same HD size?

    Probably simple questions but
    -Can a 2nd ATV be added to a network (for a 2nd set)?
    -To sync, does it have to be the same sized HD, or can you sync them seperately?
    -Can the ATV2 output simultaneously to HDMI and component outputs or does one cancel the other?

    Interesting. I have my main flat screen with the Apple TV connected via component through to my Home theater system and wanted to also run it direct to the second HDMI for times when my wife does not want to go through the HT setup, etc. I had noticed a 1080i option, not 1080P. I gather 1080P will come up if I switch it to HDMI? My cable box allows simultaneous component and HDMI outputs. I didn't realize that 1080P is not available on the component spigots.

  • Can you use 2 apple tvs on the same network with different apple ids and how would your devices know which apple tv to stream to?

    Hi,
    I was looking into purchasing 2 apple tvs and was wondering if they can be setup with different apple ids. I need to have mine setup with my id and be able to hook my devices to it , but have the one in a bedroom hooked to a different apple id and have my friend's devices stream to that one and not mine.  Is this possible?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order that your Apple TV only streamed from your iTunes Library and your friends to your friends, you would both have to have different homesharing ID's.
    So far as devices go, any device on a network can stream over AirPlay to an Apple TV, to ensure each of you couldn't stream to the others device you can enable a password via the Apple TV which would then need entering when you used a device for AirPlay.
    Shouldn't be a problem to do what you want to do.

  • If I have 2 TVs at home and want to buy 2 apple TVs to connect my current TVs, can I use 1 new iPad and then play the movies on the 2 apple TVs at the same time?

    as title...

    iWork is universal, so it will work full-res on the iPad. This is true for any app which has the plus sign symbol (in the App Store in iTunes it will say "This app is designed for iPhone and iPad".

  • Two Apple TVs in the same house

    Hi gang,
    First post. I bought the ATV when it was a 40 gb and then bought the second when it went to 160gb. Can I use both on two different tvs, one upstairs and one downstairs? My network reaches all of the house. Now with the new upgrade, I want to have an ATV in my theatre room upstairs, as well as the unit I have downstairs. Any help is appretiatted.

    Yes you can do just that. Just make sure you give them different names.

  • Keynote presentations when using wireless libratone zipp speaker there is a 2sec delay before any slide containing video/audio plays - tried connection through apple TV still the same. Any ideas?

    Keynote presentations when using wireless libratone zipp speaker there is a 2sec delay before any slide containing video/audio plays - tried connection through apple TV still the same. Any ideas?

    Thanks Gary, I think I should have mentioned that I have wired my other speakers and it works fine. 
    I just wanted to go wireless when presenting in front of class, simply to avoid trailing wires from the macbook which I position in front of me on a desk next to the projector and the speakers are behind me next to the screen.
    I have struggled to find a solution, and reading through other discussions it is a problem that perhaps only Apple can solve.
    I hope the new 'Yosemite' will resolve the problem.
    Thank you once again for your reply.

  • I was wondering if you could have one desktop audio playing through your speakers and the other one playing through your apple tv at the same time?

    Problem here is you admit you cannot afford the service.
    And you want to blame Verizon for losing a job because you have no cell phone.
    If your job depends on that phone I would pay it on time every time if you need a job to pay your bill.
    No other service is going to treat you any different. And if you cannot afford Verizon's monthly invoice how are you going to afford new devices, activation fees, possible security deposits on any other cellular carrier? You can't.
    Also if you made an arraignment to pay and then decide you cannot do so, why should Verizon extend you service or credit, or why is it you want to use the service and data and not pay for it as agreed.
    Get a prepay phone. Its evident the cost is too high for you to afford on post pay.
    Good Luck

  • This morning Find My Phone alert went off on all my devices connected to my Apple ID at the same time, is this a bug or should I be worried that my id is hacked? I didn't have Find My Phone app installed on many of these devices. Please advice. Thanks

  • Can I use two apple TV on the same wifi system?

    Can I use twoo apple tv on the same wifi system??

    Winston, what sort of set up do you have for 10 apple tvs? - I currently have 2 and cannot stream different movies successfully at the same time to both of them from a single macbook pro. I am looking at upgrading to a system with a macbook mini or server streaming different content to 3-5 apple tvs. Currently all streaming is on the same channel and via 2 airport extremes and a new express. Still finding the system very very slow.

  • N my house we have 2 iphone 4, and everytime we get the same contact list freom each other, how can we unsync the contacts so each user keeps thir own contact list?

    n my house we have 2 iphone 4, and everytime we get the same contact list freom each other, how can we unsync the contacts so each user keeps thir own contact list?

    Hi user 1724, before icloud, we had the same issue.... 
    so yes,  the solution was to  each log  into the mac separately.
    i kept the main itunes library and apple id, and my son made his own itunes library (which linked to the main itunes/apple id)   - so we were able to maintain separate contacts lists.
    but then w/ the cloud i guess we assumed the cloud would know we each have different contact lists on diff. phones, but it seems the cloud just lumped it all together -

  • Is it possible to airplay my extended desktop to multiple apple tv at the same time

    Hi
    I am looking to do video distribution in the venue I work in thrue multiple apple tv. The Idea is to use AirPlay and to send my extended desktop to about a dozen apple tv at the same time. is it possible to do it ???

    Winston is correct you may want to consider a multiplexer its what places like bars restaruants usse when the wat several tvs to use the same imput. is cheaper then several apple tvs hers one at $132.74 i have never used it but searced google and found it would give you up to 8 tvs of one HDMI signal.

  • How can I move a task from a Summary Task to another Summary Task in the same task list?

    Hey, I tried to move tasks through the SP UI from one Summary Task to other in the same task list, but I didn't find possibility for it.
    Then I spent time to learn the SP Client Object Model and now I can read tasks form the list. I see every task has a "FileRef" and a "FileDirRef" field. If I think right these fields show the relation between list elements for example between
    a Task and a Summary Task elements.
    I changed these fields' values and I tried to Update the ListItem but I got this error message: "Invalid data has been used to update the list item. The field you are trying to update may be read only."
    I really need to move tasks what were created below a wrong Summary Task so please explain a method or pattern how I can do this. (I can create a new Task below to any Summary Task and I can set field values but I hope there is a way to really move tasks (I
    mean I should change the right field values somehow.).
    I can reach the Task List both on the server and client side so I'm very interested in every solution. PowerShell solution is also good for me.
    I'm using SharePoint 2010 SP2.
    Thank you for your answer and your time. :)

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to move a task from one summary task to another in the same task list.
    We can do it like this:
    We can create a Gantt View for this task list, then copy your tasks inside a summary task, then navigate back to the other summary and paste, then go back to original and delete.
    Here is another way for your reference:
