Can Apple TV work with Multiple TV's?

Is there a way to hook one Apple TV up to multiple TV's to view video's at the same time? Like have one in the bedroom and one in the living room???

Yes, you can. I have my Apple TV, DVD, and Cablebox hooked up to 6 televisions, plus audio wall controls in several rooms.
Whatever output you are using, you are going to need to split the signal and also amplify it - otherwise you'll lose signal quality. So, you need a Distributor / Amplifier that will take whatever input you want to provide it from your Apple TV and give you with multiple amplified outputs to run to different TVs.
I also had the constraint of wanting to use existing co-axial cable (i.e. a standard TV antena cable) to transmit the signal because that's what I already have run to multiple rooms. For this part, you would need an "Apple TV S-Video Converter" (do a Google search on that for a vendor). This takes the component video out from your Apple TV and converts it to an S-Video signal (i.e. a composite video signal that you can run over co-axial cable). It's true that composite video isn't as good as HDMI or component video connections, but it's perfectly workable and it makes everything else easier and less expensive presuming that you'd otherwise have to run new cables.
A final thing worth considering is a remote IR solution (such as Powermid) so that you can control your Apple TV from any room in the house.
Hope this answers your question, and good luck with it.

  • Can I sign in with multiple apple IDs in a single apple device without deleting my previous one?

    can I sign in with multiple apple IDs in a single apple device without deleting my previous one?

    Hi swagyoloswag,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    There are several different services that require signing into an Apple ID to use on your iOS device. You can sign into different Apple IDs for different services on your iPhone. For example, Apple ID #1 for iCloud and Apple ID #2 for iTunes & App Store. You cannot sign into the same service with two different Apple IDs at the same time. The attached article has a list of services that are accessible with your Apple ID.

  • I have an iphone 4 and it's not working, if i pay can apple replace it with the same model even though it's no longer for sale?

    I have an iphone 4 and it's not working, if i pay can apple replace it with the same model even though it's no longer for sale?

    If the iPhone has not been opened or serviced by other than Apple
    or authoriized service provider (there are a few other requirements),
    you should be eligible for out of warranty replacemement for $149 US.
    Apple maintains sufficient stock for replacements even for iPhones that
    are no longer available for purchase. You may be better off upgrading to
    a newer version than paying $149 to stay with the iPhone 4.
    What is no longer working? If you provide more details as to the problem
    and what troubleshooting steps you have taken, some one may offer
    a solution.

  • Working with Multiple Files in Workspace Layout

    If I was working with multiple files in the workspace layout, they each used to be available for selection from a tab.  Now I can either cascade the files horizontally or vertically - but not have them appear in a tab across the top of the workspace layout.
    Does anyone know how to set the workspace to present multiple files in tabs?  I have CS3.

    Tanya,
    This may not help, but the times when that happens to me is when I go too fast and some operations haven't finished. I then try to select a file that hasn't completed and the file I select is in the process of having the data updated. The worst is when it is trying to render as I am doing something.
    I hope this helps some.

  • Will apple tv work with a hdmi splitter of some kind ? TV only has 2 hdmi ports and both are in use

    will apple tv work with a hdmi splitter of some kind ? TV only has 2 hdmi ports and both are being used .
    If splitter will work any recomendations as to best type to use

    The Hatter,
    I am a novice at Mac so I read all I can.  From what I understand the NEC monitors I bought require Display Port for their maximum performance.  The GTX 680 only has DVI outputs.  Difference from what I understand is larger bandwidth with the DP.
    You said I have the 4000 for CUDA.  I am not all that familiar with CUDA and when I do read about it I do not understand it. 
    A concern I have is, that if I connect the 2 high end NEC monitors via the 5770, using it's 2 Display Ports I would have nothing connected to the 4000.  Is the 4000 doing anything with nothing connected?  I read where in a PC system the 2 cards would interact but in a Mac system they do not.
    Bottom line, as I see it, the 4000 will not be useful at all to me, since I want a dual monitor set-up.
    So far the 5870 seems the best choice, higher band width than the 5770, and it has 2 Display Ports to optimize the NEC monitors.
    I'm not sure how fine I am splitting hairs, nor do I know how important those hairs are.  I am just trying to set up a really fast reliable system that will mainly be used for CS6 and LR4.  Those NEC monitors are supposed to be top notch.

  • Will a external Apple iSight work with the latest Mac Mini?

    with a firewire 400-800 if it will what software do i need to take pictures and videos.
    Many Thanks

    Will a external apple isight work with the latest mac mini.
    Yes (if the external iSight works.)
    External iSights are great webcams, but they are getting old (as consumer electronics go) and some have had pretty rough treatment. You can test yours using the suggestions from this page:
      http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage4.html
    I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get your external iSight working with your mini.
    If you do not already have an external iSight and are considering buying one now,
    a new webcam (with warranty) may be a better choice.
    Many available alternatives are listed here: http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com/

    Use one of the following ways to connect your FW400 external iSight to a FW800 Mac port:
    • To use the FW400 6pin-6pin cable that comes with iSight, you can use a 6pin-9pin adapter
      like one of these:

    • Some report that this low-priced alternative cable works:
      http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812189097
    I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get external iSight working with your mini. Once iSight works when it is the only FW connected device, you can try connecting other Firewire devices to determine whehter you can use any of them without conflict.
    ... if it will what software do i need to take pictures and videos.
    With your 10.6.3 mini, you can use QuickTime X, iChat, Photo Booth, iMovie, and some of the other apps that are installed with OS X. Your Mac's Help for each of these apps can tell you how to use them with iSight (or other connected cameras.)
    Some more apps you can use are shown in this list:

    The web links for each app gives details on what functions is offers with your webcam.

  • Does apple tv work with PAL

    I'm moving from the US to India, will Apple TV and the movies I purchased on the apple site work with a PAL TV?

    I assume you have a black ATV?
    So long as the TV in India has HDMI and can do 50 or 60 Hz 720p or 1080p (for ATV3) it should be fine.
    PAL/NTSC are pretty irrelevant when it comes to devices like AppleTV.

  • Does apple tv work with both N wireless bands

    Does apple tv work with both wireless "N" bands

    Yes, I have both the 1G and 2G ATVs working off a 5 GHz n only network. Since the 2.4 GHz band can be set up to be backwards compatible with b/g networks it will work here too.
    I use an Apple Time Capsule to create a dual band network. Running my ATVs and Airport Expresses on the 5 GHz band improved streaming and AirPlay speaker reliability substantially in my location. I suspected interference from my neighbor's networks as well as other 2.4 GHz sources. I had to create the 2.4 GHz network for my 1G touch and an older laptop to work which don't need as reliable of a network connection.

  • Problem when working with multiple sequences

    Dears,
    In order to make life easier (I am currently working on a rather long project), I work with multiple sequences, one per chapter.
    My problem: I named one sequence "assembly sequences" in order to add the various sequences. I dropped the sequence no 1, then no 2. All works fine, beside that when playing the sequence no 2, I see two black lines on top and bottom of the screen for the all length of the sequence. Which is not the case when I click on the sequence itself and play it independently.
    Any idea how to solve this ?
    Thanks
    Nic

    Thanks, what happened is that :
    1st sequence is like this : Frame size 720x576 pixels, video rate 25fps, Compressor DV-Pal. And I think it is the one appropriate for me and my country.
    2nd sequence is like this : Frame size 720x480 pixels,
    video rate 29.97 fps, Compressor DV-DVPRO-NTSC.
    I think I should change the second sequence setting, but can I do it after all the work I have done, and continue making a 3rd, 4th and so on ?
    Tx for your precious help,
    Nicolas
