Can i change to ethernet while syncing thru wireless? apple tv 1st generation

im syncing iTunes with my apple tv (first generation) for the first time thru a wireless connection but its taking too long. can switch to ethernet connection while the scycing is in progress to make the sync faster?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
No, you'd need to stop the sync, change connection and initiate a sync again. I doubt you'd lose much time having to start the sync again and you may well save a lot of time changing connection sooner rather than later if your wifi network is that slow.

  • My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?

    I had the same thing happen to me.  It's a bug in iPhoto 9.4.2.
    The first time you run iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, it "updates the iPhoto library".  This sometimes tickles a bug where iTunes can see all your iPhoto albums, but iTunes thinks they are empty.  Since iTunes thinks all your albums are empty, it dutifully deletes any photos from your synced iOS devices.
    It's easy to tell if this is the problem you are seeing.  Open iTunes and go to the photos sync panel for one of your iOS devices.  If you have multiple albums checked, but iTunes shows a total of 0 photos, then you have the problem.
    I spent an hour with an Apple Genius.  he couldn't find any mention of this problem in their internal support system.  His recomendation was to reinstall the operating the system.  I suspect that this won't solve it.
    The only solution I have found is to restore iPhoto 9.4.1 and the corresponding iPhoto library from your backups.
    I would refrain from upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2 until Apple has a fix for this issue.

  • Can I use a Vodafone USB Dongle with my apple IPad 1st Generation if I have a USB adaptor for my IPad

    Hi there just wondering does anyone know if I can use a Vodafone USB Dongle with my apple IPad 1st Generation 16gb (WiFi only) if I have a USB adaptor, will the IPad !st generation support a A Vodafone Dongle(Irish network)

    You cannot plug a USB dongle into an iPad using the USB part of the iPad Camera Connection Kit.
    The Camera Connection Kit is for connecting cameras - hence the name.
    You'd need to get a MiFi device to use 3G data via WiFo on your iPad.

  • Can't get "movies" in my iTunes onto my Apple TV (1st generation)...

    I have a series of videos of differing lengths that are in my iTunes Movies folder/category. They play in iTunes with no problem, but many will not appear on my Apple TV.
    I've tried highlighting them and clicking Advanced-Create iPad or Apple TV Version, but I get an error message stating "Filename" could not be converted because this file does not allow saving or conversion.
    These videos are from various sites and are in various formats (some mpeg 4, some .mov). I downloaded them legally and have the right to have them.
    What is causing this? How can I get them onto my Apple TV hard drive so I can play them?

  • I have a iphone 4s with ios 8.3 and I used to be able to sync only a week or two of emails from outlook email.  Now it won't let me do that and it syncs all my inbox.  How can I change it back to sync less.  I can't find the right place.

    I understand, as that was the place I would change it before 8.3 but now that option of Mail Days to Sync is not available?  Any idea why that would be?

  • How can i change the font while im coding?

    How can i change the font while im coding? I am not talking about the final product and inserting fonts in my documet i am talking about when i am in the progress of coding I want to change the font so it is way more pleaseing to the eye when I am staring at it while coding? please do help and thanks!

    Editing the source is a bit of a pain because you'll have to redo it after every update.  It's better to write yourself a mini-extension that adds a new stylesheet -- that is also very simple to do.  Just follow these instructions: https://github.com/adobe/brackets/wiki/Customize-Your-Code-Font.

  • I changed my email address on one of my old APPLE accounts and want to merge my accounts together, how can I change my email address on my old Apple account?

    I changed my email address on one of my old APPLE accounts and want to merge my accounts together so I can get all my songs!!  My computer crashed and I'm tryng to change everything over to my mac via my ipod classic and just Transfer old files.  It's ejecting my disc (ipod) so I figured I could just change my old Apple ID to be one with my new one.
    how can I change my email address on my old Apple account?

    There is no way to merge two Apple IDs as all purchases made with each account are always tied to those accounts.
    All you can do to each account is change the email address for each one but they can't have the same email address.

  • HT1784 In iTunes my Apple tv (1st Generation) only shows Summary and photos so I can no longer load a movie and sync to the Apple tv. Anybody else experienced options now missing ?

    I used my Apple tv (1st generation) to load films on iTunes and then sync to my Aplle tv. In iTunes I now can only see Summary and Photos and therefore lost the ability to load a film and then sync to the Apple tv. Anybody else experienced this with ? Cannot find any options to resolve this.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your library has become a secondary (streaming only) library only (it is possible to turn syncing off by ctrl-clicking on the Apple TV listing in the device list and choosing 'Turn Off Syncing" from the contextual menu) and you need to reconnect your library as a primary library.
    Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

  • I've got a new Apple ID but can not change anything on my phone, my old Apple ID is connected to icloud but is not letting me delete it without a password! But I do not know this password what can I do?

    I've got a new Apple ID but can not change anything on my phone, my old Apple ID is connected to icloud but is not letting me delete it without a password! But I do not know this password what can I do?

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your new ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your new iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  You can now use your new password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
    Note: this will not work if your new ID is an entirely new ID that was never previously associated with the old email address.

  • Why can't I sync videos in my iPhoto library to Apple TV (1st generation)

    Why can't I sync videos in my iPhoto library to Apple TV (1st generation)?

    If it's already in iTunes, you can reconver the video to an even more friendly iTunes format using iTunes' built in converter.  Highlight the video in iTunes and choose Advanced -> Create iPod or iPhone version from the menu bar.
    When the video(s) has/have finished converting, configure them to sync to your iPod.
