  • Can I hook up my apple tv to my surround sound system and keep my regular tv hooked up to surround sound at the same time?

    Can I hook up my apple tv to my surround sound system, but keep my regular tv hooked up to the surround sound as well?

    If your audio amplifier has multiple hdmi imputs, you can connect the apple tv to one and the tv to another.
    Works well for me, and now I can mirror itunes to get the new itunes radio on the music system, and have the tv system also work.

  • How can I sync my iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4G to ANY computer/itunes without having to erase EVERYTHING on it?

    I need to use another laptop to sync my music, I've already synced my iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4G with my laptop and had to delete EVERYTHING to do so! I refuse to do this again, I was NEVER able to restore my phone back to it's original state since then.
    How can I sync up my idevices to ANY computer w/ iTunes without having to completely bomb my iphone and ipod? And if I can't do that, how can I back up all my music and apps? I've already tried "back up device" and that did absolutely NOTHING to help my predicament.
    Long story short, I had my devices synced to my desktop, my desktop broke, so I bought a laptop, synced my devices to my laptop after erasing all my data, and my laptop was destroyed during hurricane sandy, so now I have to use my parents/friends computers to sync new music and videos. BUT CAN'T BECAUSE MY DEVICES WERE ALREADY SYNCED TO MY LAPTOP AND DESKTOP!
    If I can get ANY help, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Follow the steps given here...

  • I dropped my computer and the screen cracked and now I can't see anything. I am using an adapter to hook it up to a monitor to see if the computer still works. All I see is the welcome screen without the login window. How do I bring that up to log in????

    So yeah, I dropped my computer and nothing comes up. I'm using an apdapter to use a monitor I have to see if the computer still works. It shows the default picture of Leopard galaxy thingy but the login window doesn't come up so i can log in. What do I do????

    I assume this is due to the fact that system detects your internal monitor as default one, and that is there where system sends main data. In order to force system send data to the external monitor, get a mouse and physical keyboard, close MB lid, and then press any key on the external keyboard.
    when you get there, go to system preferences/display, and manually move the Apple upper bar to the external monitor, then choose mirror; ultimately, set optimal resolution.

  • Can't hook up my Apple TV to my computer??grrrr..

    Just got my apple tv and bought top of the line HDMI cable and want to know how do I connect my Apple TV to my computer so i can synch my movies and start using the unit. The unit is charging at the moment, do I have to wait til the unit is fully charged - does a red light come on.
    MY CPU doesn't have the slot that is on the cable. Can I retroffit it to accomodate the cable? My HD TV has the slot to view the movies but I need to get the movies on the Apple TV. Had I known this was going to be so difficult, I would have passed. I need 101 instructions. The pamphlet is not clear, it says this or that and i don't really know what this or that is. Help.

    I think you need to study the instructions, I'm not sure whether you have them or some other leaflet but they do tell you how to set the unit up.

  • I have a projector connected to a directtv box that is connected to an older Bose system in my media room. How can i hook up my apple tv to my projector and still get sound out of the bose system without running another sound cable to the bose system?

    The audio cable currently is connected to the directtv box. If i hook my apple tv to the projector that means i would have to run a sound cable across my media room. is there any other way?

    External speakers need to be connected via optical unless they work with airplay.

    trying to hook my flat screen tv through the hdmi cable from the computer to the tv using the tv as a second monitor. games like x-box and ps3 hook into the monitor and work fine. Its going out that don't want to work.. is it possable or not??   i know about the botton that changes in to out and out to in.. hooked up hdmi cord to computer and to tv. its not recnising the tv at all. i use a lap top with same hdmi cable and it hooks up fine, so cable is good. any help would be good. IS this possable or do i need to get a converter from USB to hdmi in orter to do this . i thought it was able to broadcast to the tv with hdmi or is this a out port only on this comoputer

    Hi,
    The HDMI port at the back is HDMI In port:
    Figure 6: Back I/O ports
    1 - DC power input
    2 - DC power indicator
    3 - Ethernet port
    4 - USB 3.0 ports
    5 - HDMI In port
    that means it's ok to use xbox or PS3 but you can't use it for TV.  If you wish to connect to a TV, you need an external USB video card or adapter.
    Regards.

  • Can iPad Air be hooked up to AOC desktop monitor? How? We have older person in home needs larger screen. Thanks.

    Can iPad Air be hooked up to AOC desktop monitor? How? We have older person in home needs larger screen. Thanks.

    YYou can connect with the cables listed above or with an Apple TV device. Keep in mind that and ipad is what it is and was made to be used as it is. I can tell you first hand that what you are trying to do will likely not be of assistance since the ipad is still required as the user interface. Connecting to a larger display maybe fine for watching movies if that's what you have in mind but for overall use the ipad will still have to be used and thus looked at to type and touch. Even with a bt keyboard there are still to many limitations That only a mouse can solve along with a keyboard and display.
    All said, you may be better off looking into, and perhaps using along with the bigger screen, some of the features that can be found in (general-text size) and (general accessibility) settings. Other then that, if you are not mindset on the ipad experience, there are other products on the market that are better suited and more affordable. I have provided care for my mother in law from here 80's to mid 90's. Been there, done that.

  • Can I Hook an Apple TV to an older TV that does not have HDMI Ports using a connector cable

    I have an older Sony HD TV and would like to hook my Apple TV to that TV but it does not have HDMI Ports.  Can I hook my Apple TV to this TV through a cable adapter that converts HDMI to Component Video and Audio (Red Green Blue Video Cables, Yellow White Audio) or HDMI to S-Video.  I have both these connections on my TV.  Thanks

    Thanks, I actually meant a converter box I just wanted to make sure that using that would work.  With Amazon FireTV Sticks for example I  jhave been told that only a direct HDMI connection to the TV would allow the device to work at all.

  • I have a pioneer 50 inch plasma   I purchased new from the company back in 2005.   I tried to hook up an Apple Tv to the pioneer receiver that came with the TV.   I can not get it to work.   The receiver has two HDMI  inputs in the back.

    I have a pioneer 50 inch plasma + I purchased new from the company back in 2005.   I tried to hook up an Apple Tv to the pioneer receiver that came with the TV.   I can not get it to work.
    The receiver has two HDMI  inputs in the back.  However they say they are not for PC's.  Furthermore they must be set up by going to the home menu.    I tried everything, but I can not get the receiver to talk to the Apple TV. I even tried a connector that uses an HDMI to the Apple TV that has the other side of the cable as 5 RCA cables.  I could not get the receiver to see the Apple TV.   I have a newer TV in the house, it has no problem talking with the Apple TV.  But this older system seems to be handicapped in its ability to talk with the newer Apple TV system.
    My Email is [email protected] 
    Do you have any suggestions
    Thanks
    Bob

    I could not access the Apple TV on the television.   If I put the Apple TV directly into by TV, I have an external sound system (entertainment system), therefore I worry that I would by pass the audio.
    Thanks for taking your time to attempt to help!   Any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    The connection of the phone to the monitor would allow you to see, but does not have the ability to translate the touch on the monitor to the phone through that cable.
