Can I see What's Playing on a laptop networked to the main computer?

My iTunes program, files and music all reside on a 1T drive connected to a MacPro in the office. I generally set up playlists and run music from there, using AirTunes to put the music all around.
My laptop in the living room is networked to it. Is there a program to show me on the laptop what is playing on the MacPro?
I know I can connect as a shared library to that iTunes or even mount the drive across the network to the laptop and Opt. open iTunes and find it. But I've seen there are some programs that broadcast what's playing to the net. Does anyone use something like that to broadcast to another computer on their home network? With album artwork?

Click on the chevron to the left of the iPod icon in the Source list. This will display the various icons for the iPod itself, Music, Movies, TV Shows and Playlists. Clicking on Music for instance will give you the traditional song view.

  • How can I see what equipment is connected to my network?

    I use a Time Capsule for my home network. Is there a way for me to see each device that is connected to my network at any given time?
    There has been an unknown device continue to show up in finder under "shared".... I've reset my network password a couple times and the device continues to show up. (Its identified as "npica53cf")
    Thank you

    Its identified as "npica53cf"
    I think HP has used default network printer hostnames in the format: npi + last 6 digits of the device's MAC address (e.g. "ca53cf").

  • Is there a way to to see what text messages you have on your iphone from your computer?

    Ok so my phone turns on.  People can call me and I can swipe and answer their phone call.  The only thing that is wrong is that I can not see what I'm doing on my phone.  The screen just has a bunch of lines going up and down it when I turn it on.  It's like the matrix without the color green. I can plug it up to my computer and sync it and manage music and stuff like that.  So picture this, If I was blind, then I would have no clue that my phone did not work.  So now on to the question.  Can I see the messages in my phone or possibly anything at all? Is their a way to plug my phone up to my computer via usb cord and be able to see what I'm click on by like pulling up some window on my computer?  Or could I just access my messages and phone calls to see if anyone has called or texted me through clicking on specific folders inside or outside of itunes.  I have a Macbook Pro by the way. Please let me know what I can do. Thanks!

    Thanks - but I don't want to delete entire threads, just most of the history in all threads. For example, is there a way to transfer all of my text messages, in all threads, from only from the last 2 months?

    How can I see what song is playing if I am viewing my photos in slide show mode on Apple TV and streaming music from my iTunes?
    Thanks.

    Thank you Winston. I guess we need to ask that this feature gets added at least as an option in an upcoming release. When someone is using shuffle, it helps to know what is playing while viewing pictures.
    Where is my Apple request button when one needs it ? :-) Cheers, C

    Thank you Csound1, ok I guess I did manage to delete it but now when I copy new mp3 files they come as mpeg and iCoud won't accept them? Why? Do I have to convert them all now or can I set it somewhere to take them as mp3's. Appreciate the help. Have a great day! Cheers Steve

  • Can I see what computers are authorized before I deauthorize and reauthorize

    I'm afraid to deauthorize. I have my 5 limit but don't remember all the computers authorized to play my music. Can you see what computers are authozied before you deauthorize them....or do you just reauthorize from the start. What do I need to reauthorize computers?

    In order to see which devices are authorized on your account:
    Open iTunes
    Click Store
    Click Account
    Click View Account
    Enter your password
    Look in the second section iTunes in the Cloud
    To the far right you'll see Manage Devices
    Once it's clicked you will see all of the devices currently authorized in iTunes/on your account
    I was going to say, "Hope this helps," but based on the above, I'm pretty sure it did!
    Thanks guys...

  • Seeing what is playing on your ipod in the apple hi-fi on my mac

    Hi is there any software that allows you to see what is playing on your ipod that is docked in the ipod hi-fi. can you change the songs from my mac.
    the ipod hi-fi is the other side of the room to the mac

    You can connect your Mac with an airport express (wireless) and then plug the airport express with your iPod HiFi (either optical or analogue). You can play the music from the iTunes with your Mac (without using the iPod).

  • TS2800 how can I see what is going to be included in the next iphone backup to icloud?

    How can I see what is going to be included in the next iphone backup to icloud?

    The "playhead indicator" is a twofold tool. Click on the "clock" icon and it switches to Project Length:
    You can click and drag on the time clock to increase the project length if you need to see what's going on beyond your Play Range.
    The image below is an overview of parts. The Timeline view is opened to reveal layer timing.
    The "mini timeline" (the bar under the canvas above the clock) shows the entire project length. Usually that's the same length as the default Play Range. Use the play head clock to add more time if you need to reveal longer media "tails". You will not change the Play Range by doing so (you'll have to do that "manually"). You can even Share/Export your project with respect to Play Range as opposed to Project Length (there's a drop down option for that upon export.)
    If you're creating a template, FCPX only "sees" the play range.
    It's not a cool one-click option... it's just the way it is in Motion.

  • How can I see what I'm actually video recording on iPad Air so that I don't include extra stuff at the borders of the image? It seems to automatically "zoom in" on the screen, but when I export the video, the picture isn't framed well.

    When I try to record a video on the Ipad Air, the screen automatically "zooms in" closer than when I'm taking a photo. So I frame the interview and record it. But when I export it to post it or edit it, I discover that only the screen was zoomed in, the camera wasn't, so I have all this extra stuff around the edges of my frame.
    I don't need to zoom in, but I do need to be able to see what I'm shooting--otherwise, as I'm videotaping, I'm guessing at my picture's framing. But every time I switch from photo to video mode, the screen "zooms in." How can I see what I'm actually recording?
    I've been searching for an answer for this for a while, but I can't find any responses to it! Thanks.

    1) how can I see what is on my icloud and how would I edit the data that is on it?
    2) I am having problems with an app syncing data with pc - how can I fix that? It is mobile noter.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can see what's in iCloud collectively at settings > iCloud > storage & back up > manage.... You can only edit the data through the appropriate app (contacts, calendars etc)
    For problems with 3rd party apps, contact the developer.

  • How can I see what is in my iCloud and on iPad and remove some stuff on on iPod mini

    How can I see what is in my iCloud and maybe remove some  from my iPad mini

    You have to sign into your iCloud account at icloud.com from a computer to view your iCloud data.  Also, be careful not to delete data from your phone that is being synced to iCloud or it will delete if from iCloud too.  (For example, if you delete a contact from your phone with Settings>iCloud>Contacts set to On it will remove the contact from iCloud too.)

  • How can I see what has been backed up

    After doing a category BU to my WD Passport Ultra, how can I see what was backed up? The Smartware tells me that what I selected was done.But how and where can I confirm this? Thanksgrowlybear

    Simplest way is to open the drive in Windows Explorer, then in the root you should find a folder WD Smartware.stor. Within that should be a folder for each device you've backed up, and within that a folder for each drive on that device that you've backed up. Within those drive folders you should find the files/folders that have been backed up from that particular drive. You can look through them in the same way that you look through the files/folders on your actual drive itself, and confirm that everything is there that you expect to be.
