BBC Radio on iTunes - Sorry, I know this question has been asked a lot

Hi all,
I'm having trouble searching the forum for an answer, so I'll pose the question which I'm sure has been answered many times in the past.
The BBC's audio streams are fantastic. Now that I've installed the "Remote" on my iPod Touch, I'm keen to listen to their streams in iTunes rather than the BBC iPlayer.
Is it possible to add any of their streams to iTunes? At minimum, the Worldservice?
Steve

I have also wondered about this. Want to hear the world service without opening RealPlayer or Safari. Tried to open a stream with the adress from RealPlayer, but that didn't work. Maybe iTunes doesn't support RealAudio? Also tried the adresse you get when opening a stream from BBC Radio's homepage, but that didn't work either. This stream should be in windows media format. I have got Flip for Mac installed and updated. Any ideas out there?

  • I know this question has been asked a lot

    But I can't find an answer to my specific computers. I have an iMac 8,1 and the first Unibody Macbook 5,1.... the iMac model: 8,1 Supports external display in dual display and mirroring modes. VGA output supported by optional Apple DVI-to-VGA adapter. However, I have went to the apple store and they stated my certain macbook can not be used as a second display for the imac nor the imac being used as a second for the macbook. The macbook model: 5,1 Supports external display in dual display and mirroring modes. DVI, Dual-Link DVI, and VGA supported by optional Apple adapters. So how to get it to work???? I don't feel like spending $900 for a display when I feel these computers are capable by themselves, and don't tell me I paid over $3,500 to not have this feature?
    This is the early 2008 iMac and the late 2008 macbook
    Again the models are
    iMac 8,1 2.8GHZ 24"
    Macbook 5,1 2GHZ 13" Unibody

    So how to get it to work?
    Use ScreenRecycler and a network connection. Except for the current 27-inch iMac, no Mac provides video in capability the way a standalone monitor does.

  • I know this question has been asked before a long time ago but NO Answer

    Hello,  This question has been asked before but no answer so I thought I'd ask it again since it's been a few years..
    How can I replace the folder icons in a Picture Library with a thumbnail of a photo in a folder?  I know I can do something very similar in the 'getting started' list by using a 'Promoted Links List' does the picture library
    use the same type of methold? I'd like to see a thumbnail of one of the photos instead of a yellow file folder.
    Thank you,

    I'm a bit of fan of: lapointes add-ons.
    If you have these installed (free of charge) it is just a powershell command. (set-spolist)
    check: http://www.falchionconsulting.com/PowerShellViewer/Default.aspx?Version=SPO&Cmdlet=Set-SPOList
    ImageUrl
    False
    String
    Sets a value that specifies the URI for the icon of the List.
    Good luck!

    When is Lion going to be released?

    Hello again:
    Since this thread is useless, I'll violate the TOU myself and respond.
    Apparently we share a common language.  In Wisconsin and, I suspect, much of the English-speaking world……..
    Inquisitive fits your original post.
    Speculation would be any response that your "inquisitiveness" generated.
    My post was a message to anyone else reading your "inquisitive" post that a response would violate the TOU.  Apple takes the TOU quite seriously - as many have found out in the past.

  • How Do I re-install QT PRO?  Sorry if this question has been asked zillions

    My existing QT Pro had a buffering issue and was corrupted, so I un-intstalled it. I want to re-install, but I can only find how to download new QT Pro and pay again. I have my registration #, etc. How do I do this? Thank you.

    Same trouble myself a time ago.
    Launch Quicktime. Under the QuickTime Player menu, enter your registration number in the first pane of QuickTime Preferences. Not "Preferences," but QuickTime Preferences.
    Hope this gets you up and running.

  • HT204371 Hallo - I'm sure this question has been asked many times before but still can't get my head around it

    I have an 'n' version Airport Express (1st Generation) and want to use it to AirPlay music from iTunes on my Mac to my HiFi in the next room. That's all I want to use it for. Have set it up to join an existing wireless network. However it will only work with an ethernet cable connected to the router. Loses the green light when cable is unplugged. As the hifi is in the next room I want it to work wirelessly, otherwise there'll be cables everywhere (as at present - ugh!) What do I have to do?  What setting needs to be changed. Thanks.

    Well, I'd all but given up and decided I'd live with it ethernet connected with wires draped everywhere...then I had another look this moring and found this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2098
    I have a non Apple, older (Thompson) router. After a factory reset, and when going through the 'join existing network' procedure when sked for the WEP password you need to put a $ before the password...and hay presto...the set up completes and...AirPlay works!  I suspect many might not have discovered this page of support information and will have been as frustrated as me for many many hours!

  • I'm sure this question has been asked before, i bought a iPad 2 from my friend and i hadn't used it for nearly 5 months then i tried to activate it and it says that there a iCloud account linked to it but my friend has NEVER used iCloud.  What can i

    I just want to know how get rid of a iCloud account from a ipad2 that i purchased off my friend.  My friend has NEVER used iCloud so i don't know how this iCloud account got linked to this ipad2 and i don't know how to get rid of it?  Please help.

    If your friend is the iPhone’s original owner, tell them to take the device and its original purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store.
    If not, but you're able to contact the person who set the lock, send them this link and tell them to follow its instructions.
    If neither of the above applies, you can't activate the device but may be able to get it refunded. Apple won't remove the lock for anyone other than the original owner(assuming they're alive.)

  • I believe this question has been asked, but I missed it.

    How do I transfer my revel picture to Light Room?
    Mary Scheele

    Mary-
    The lightroom plugin allows publishing directly to Revel, but there is not a direct way to get photos from Revel to Lightroom currently. You can export photos from Revel to your computer and then open them in Lightroom, but can't open them in Lightroom directly out of Revel. Some users have asked for a two way interface, so we have communicated this with product management for consideration.

  • My issue over ppc or intel (i know this topic has been done to death.. but.

    Ok...so here is my dilema. Recently at the new apple store up here in the great white north..... and I got to thinking.... that the new imac's are simply intel technology, wrapped up in a mac. Intel technology that CONSISTENTLY breaks down in PC's! One of my main reasons for switching from pc to mac, was to escape the constant blue screens and loss of data from those wretched machines. It just became ridiculous. So I sort of feel that mac has adopted a technology proven to breakdown.
    I'm not sure if this topic has been discussed before...so I apologize if it has. I understand the new intels are faster, quieter..etc.. but i'm still left with the basic thought that my pc's ALWAYS broke down, and now mac has gone down the same road.
    Any advice or education on this topic would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Don't buy into the FUD that pro-PPC guys are spewing. As Marty says, it is not the hardware, but the software that causes problems in PCs.
    Mac OX X is the most stable and virus resistant desktop OS on the market and a switch to Intel CPU does nothing to change that.

  • This question has been on my mind for quite some time...

    I've been an avid user of iTunes for nearly a year now, and I used it even before I purchased my new Mac.
    This has been bugging me like a piece of gum stuck to my shoe, so I have to ask: Sporatically and erratically, when I drag albums, artists, or songs to a specific playlists, iTunes will automatically start playing the first song from the dragged artist/album or the song itself. I HATE this. I don't know why it happens so randomly, too. I can add/delete all I want for hours on end and it won't happen - other times, it happens nearly everytime I add a new album/artist/song to a playlist. It wouldn't be annoying, except that I'm always listening to some other music on iTunes at the time, and thus when iTunes starts playing another song from my dragged selection, it HIGHLY annoys me.
    I've looked in the preferences window and can't find an option of any sort that can help me. What do I want, or rather, don't want? I don't want iTunes to start playing a song from a dragged selection when I add it to a playlist. I want it to avoid that. Am I out of luck as far as controlling this erratic beast? I've only used Macs since June of this year and I do not remember this happening with my horrible Windows version of iTunes at all.
    Please help.

    What version of iTunes? In 6.0.1, you can go to iTunes/preferences/advanced/importing and uncheck "play songs while importing". It will be slightly different with earlier versions of iTunes, but the wording should be similar enough.

  • My iphone 4 is just  6 months old and somone in school stole it , i am 17 years old , and i still have my full warranty coverage , will i be able to get a new iphone under my warranty? im sorry i know this question isnt related to using an iphone

    i just want to know if my iphone warranty covers replacing a stolen iphone, it was bought in May but only been used since july , it is registered into Itunes as well, if its impossible to repalce it can somone tell me ways to track it down,( the iphone4 had no sim card in it thought )

    Sorry, but your warranty is just that, and what you would need is an insurance policy.  Warranties typically do not cover loss, theft or accidental breakage, at least not unless bundled with a "protection" package or deal.
    Ask your parents though if their homeowners policy might cover it?
    Oh, and the only way to track it was if you had already enabled the track my iPhone option with your iCloud account settings before it was stolen.  And to track it, it would need to be on a network connection, either wifi or 3G.
