ATV2 - Do i have to check all song i want on ATV?

I have thousands of songs in my iTunes, and don't have all checked so not to kill my iphone with unwanted songs.
In order for me to have all my music on the ATV2, do i have to check the songs i want to share?  Will only checked songs be on the ATV?
Thanks

No. The apple tv will see all songs in your library regardless of if they are checked or not!
It only streams and does not sync, so no checking is required.
just set up home sharing and you're good to go!
not entirely correct.
unchecked items originally were not made available to the appletv, however since a recent update unchecked items are now greyed out when listed on the appletv.

  • HT1351 I'm trying to manually sync all my music to my iPod touch, but whenever I click the sync button it counts to 5 then stops. Is this because I have to check all 3055 songs individually? If so then I'm quitting with apple as a whole....

    Sync and manually manage are two entirely different things.  You either sync or manually manage.
    Manually manage is drag and drop.
    Sync is when you select what you want and then sync.

  • My ipod is not recognized on a new computer after old one crashed.  I have painstakenly restored all songs and playlists.  I deautorized all, and the reauthorized new computer.  It won't sync.

    My ipod is now recognized on a new computer after old one crashed.  I installed itunes on the new computer, and have painstakenly restored all songs and playlists. I also purchased several new songs from the itunes stores.  Now my ipod will not sync with the new computer.  I deauthorized all computers, then reauthorozed the new one.  My ipod still won't sync.

    ...after running diagnostics through itunes, itunes says  "device not found"  Seems there are a lot of others having this problem,and it seems to be related to new version of itunes.  Apple should do something to fix this.

    Try command clicking a song and it should select all in songs or a playlist.

  • Checking ALL songs (little boxes) in one's library

    I have a minor dilemma. My son has an ipod. I have an ipod. He is ten years old. I do not want him to have his own iTunes library (yet). He has made his own play lists and so on. So have i for myself. Now here is the problem. The little bugger wanted only his songs on his ipod and this i can understand.
    So whilst i wasn't looking (and thinking he was playing mini-games on notdoppler website as he does so often to entertain himself on our iMac).... he unchecked a whole whack of my songs until i found out and i showed him the problem with doing that (meaning good for him, ... bad for me). So how do i go about checking ALL the boxes very quickly without taking three hours to check each unchecked little box?

    Select all songs (click on one, press command-a or choose "Edit" > "Select All"). Control-click (or right-click) on the selected songs to get the context-sensitive menu and choose "Check Selection".
    Needless to say, in the future the "little bugger" should change his sync settings for his ipod so only songs on his playlists should appear on his iPod, rather than using the check box feature.

  • Checking all songs in a list

    is there a way to check all of the songs or something??

    First highlight all the songs ( Edit menu > Select All is one approach ), right-click a song and choose Check Selection or Uncheck Selection as the case may be.

  • HT1451 How do I re-check all songs.  I somehow unchecked them and to manually re-check them all will take forever

    I accidentally un-checked all my songs in I-Tunes and re-checking them manually will take forever!  Anyone know how to put the check mark next to all the songs at the same time?

    CTRL+click on any empty check box will check all visible tracks.

  • Ipod won't allow me to check all songs for syncing.

    Hello. My Ipod Shuffle won't plaiy all of the songs that it used to play, so I opened my library in Itunes. Some songs were unchecked, and these were the ones that are not playing. I tried to check them, but am unable to. The songs will play if I double click on them, however. I checked my preferences and I do not have the box checked that says "Sync only checked songs". Any ideas? Thanks!

    The checking and unchecking of songs is done in iTunes, not on the shuffle.  And that may affect what is loaded in the shuffle during automatic syncing.  So first check what is actually loaded on the shuffle.
    If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    In the sidebar, find your shuffle under DEVICES.  Click the small trianle to the left of the shuffle name to drop down its content list (indented below the shuffle).  Click on Music there.  The list of songs currently on the shuffle is shown to the right.  Are the songs that do not play on that list, or not on that list?

  • I just tried to import photos from iphone to MacAir  but only some came across, many others as dark space. The app thinks I have transferred them all but I want to redo the process and it is not obvious how to do that. I deleted the dark images  already,

    How may I reimport photos from my iphone 4s to the MacAir iPhoto as only some images came across.. It is not obvious to me, like it is with other programs I have used.

    Also, you can have Image Capture automatically open when you connect the phone or any camera. To do that you need to open iPhoto on your Mac (yes, the setting is in iPhoto and that is a bit strange).
    Why do I have to buy iPhoto to get to a setting so that I don't have to use iPhoto?!?! Not very Apple-like.
    If the device is attached and highlighted in Image Capture, the setting is in the bottom left corner.

  • I don't have Aperture at all I just want to get the minimum version + upgrade to be able to load the relevant compatibility upgrade

    The system seems to have assumed I have Aperture 3 - I dont have any version of same. I am just trying to sneak in via a minimal approach to be able to process Raw files from Sony RX100 only. My main photo gear is Nikon but the little Sony is a gem, & I cant find a way yet, short of getting a new macbook pro. I'd rather get a new lens.

    To be able to use the digital raw support, you need to install
    Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 5.03
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1717
    This raw support requires either iPhoto or Aperture:
    System Requirements
    OS X 10.8.5 w/ iPhoto 9.4.3 or Aperture 9.4.5
    OS X 10.9 w/ iPhoto 9.4.3 or Aperture 9.4.5
    But you need to upgrade at least to MacOS X 10.8.5.
    Do you have a current version of iPhoto? Aperture is not necessary to use the raw support, but it has more features to fine-tune the raw developement.

  • I have "doubles" of all my songs in my library.  Is there a way to delete the "extra" without doing it one at a time?

    I have "doubles" of all songs in my library due to my ignorance about transferring from old computer to new.  Is there a way to delte all of the extras without doijng it one-by-one?

    I have tried rebooting, but everything was still frozen afterward.  I've considered doing a restore on the computer, but that would probably wipe all of my saved information out as it's never been connected with the computer before. Also, during a restore, it asks you to confirm information on your iphone screen, which is impossible to do with it being frozen. 

  • Once again, I have problems sending e-mails from my iPad 2. I have a telus account and I have dealt with their tech people and they have checked all my settings and everything is fine. Apple techs advised to open Gmail acct. and re-route through it? Why?

    I am having a difficult time trying to send e-mails from my iPad 2? I have contacted my Telus server tech people and we have double checked all my settings. Everything is properly set! Checked with my Apple people and they say this is a common problem with my server, yet others with the same server don't seem to have a problem. They suggested that I open a Gmail account and infor my mail server(Telus) to route my mail through my Gmail account? Does thei make sense? Are ther any other solutions I might investigate?

    Hi prettytoni,
    I saw one interesting solution to set a gmail account like as it is a "Microsoft Exchages" account... Maybe you can try to do the similiar with your Telus account? (I'm not sure about the result, but still you can try it))))

  • Iphone create playlist add all songs

    Since upgrading to iOS7.0.4 on my iPhone 4 I have to say I have been very frustrated and unhappy. Not only does my album art not match my songs after various syncs and deletes and resyncs, voice control keeps coming on to interrupt my music draining my battery. Now I am trying to create a new playlist and the functionality to add all songs in a search is gone meaning I have to click on every single song to add it rather than being able to add by artist or album all in one go. This is most annoying. My contract with Telus is almost up and I'm getting more and more tempted to go to a Samsung Galaxy as I find the bugs in the new iTunes iOS 7.0.4 are becoming a real pain.

    The reason I need the On-The-Go playlist, is because I had my iPod on auto-sync, and checked the songs I wanted added to the iPod. But in my iTunes, I accidentally checked EVERYTHING. So now if I want to re-sync my iPod to include new songs I've added, I'll have to go BACK through and recheck those few thousand songs I had on my iPod, which will take me forever.
    SO, if I can just create the On-The-Go playlist, it will transfer that to my iTunes, in which case I can just sync the playlist.
    Yeah, I've even tried adding songs from other playlists. If it's a small playlist it works. I made a playlist with every song on my iPod. That didn't work. Is there a max for how big the On-The-Go playlist can be?
