Can i share my videos and/or music between macbook, iPad, iPhone, and apple tv?

currently the only thing i know how to do is play videos from my macbook iTunes onto my apple tv.  id like to be able to watch/listen to this content on my iPad and iPhone also,without using airdrop....id like to share, not transfer, necessarily.  id like to it play both purchased and files downloaded from other sources.  are there some settings to be able to accomplish this or maybe a 3rd party app i could download?  any advice would be appreciated.  thank you.

If the music and videos are in your Mac's iTunes library then you should be able to use home sharing to access them in the Videos and Music apps on your iPad and/or iPhone.
If you have the same account enabled in home sharing on your Mac's iTunes (File > Home Sharing menu option) and on your iPad or iPhone (Settings > Music >Home Sharing or Settings > Videos > Home Sharing), they are connected to the same wifi network, and iTunes on your Mac is open, then you should get a Shared option in the Music and Videos apps on the device (top right of the Videos app ; possibly via the More button bottom right of the Music app)

  • I can't sync notes between macbook, ipad & iphone

    After my upgrade to Mountain Lion, I can't sync my notes / reminders between my Macbook Pro, iPhone and iPad. I am not incline to use icloud to sync these information. I do not seems to be able to find a square to tick in my itunes for syncing my iPhone and iPad. Now all my notes & reminders are in a mess. Please help.

    Same here. iCloud signon is identical on iPad, iPhone and mac. iCloud is default account, yet I cant see several of my notes on mac. On mac, some of the notes appear under "all notes", but under the specific account for icloud, it just tries updatimg and then nothing happens. It worked much much better under Lion.

  • How can I easily manage different libraries of music between my iPad and my iPhone from the same computer?

    My 32 GB iPad stores much more data than my 16 GB iPhone... clearly. But I want to be able to easily sync these two seperate devices with two different sets of music from my iTunes. As it stands now, my iPad will always have the same amount of music as my iPhone because my iPhone is maxed out and the two devices are synced on the same computer from the same library. Do you understand where I'm coming from? Let me know if you need clarification.
    I want to be able to have my iPhone filled with individual songs, whereas my iPad would have the full albums. There doesn't seem to be an efficient way to do this with one computer. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

    It can be done very easily actually. I do it with three different iDevices.
    Connect the iDevice to your PC and launch iTunes. Select the iDevice from the left sidebar of the iTunes window. Then click on the Music Tab. Select only the music that you want on that particular iDevice and then sync the device with those selections.
    Do the same thing with the other iDevice. When you sync with iTunes the next time, iTunes will remember the music that was synced to that device.
    Make sure that you uncheck Sync Entire Music Library and check Sync Selected playlists, albums, etc and then select all of the music for each device.
    When you make changes to the current configuartion on the iPad - you will have to click on Apply in the lower right corner of the iTunes window.

  • How do I share pictures, videos, and songs between 2 iPhones on 1 iMac?

    How do I share pictures, videos, and songs between 2 iPhones on 1 iMac? My wife and I shoot pictures and video at the same event and want to share them in 1 iPhoto event. We have music that we want to share and load onto our respective iPhones. And we DON'T want to muddle our contacts, apps, or other goodies.
    I tried to set up a shared folder for the pictures, and set us a login for each of us. I must have missed a step or two because it didn't work.
    Please spell it out. Please provide the steps and check marks, or a link to an Apple Support doc that makes it easy.
    Thanks,

  • How can i share a video via email?

    how can i share a video from iMovie 09 (8.0.6) via email?
    I have tried saving to desktop and attaching by even my 1 minute clip will not go through.

    Yes, the file size is too large.  I am able to email photos through iphoto so i was hoping i'd be able to do the same with imovie....
    So it was your mail server limitations.  Well, as I said, that's what these media sharing services are for.
    It depends on the service, but generally up to about 1GB can be uploaded for free.  You are given a unique and private url of the upload which you give to people who you want to allow to download it.  They can then download the file you uploaded (again for free). 
    When you do the upload you are also given instructions on how to delete your upload if you wish.  It's usually another url.  Then you can delete it later if you wish or just leave up there as long as you want.
    The only restrictions on using these services for free (other than the max file size) is that most will throttle down the download speed and limit how soon you could do two downloads back to back.  Also they ask for a capcha.  Basically they try to be as annoying as possible to make you pay them for their service. 
    By the way, IMO, rapidshare is one of the most annoying of them all.
    I am not familiar with the one Matt Clifton is recommending.  It's probably is as good as any to choose.  As I said there are hundreds of them.  All have a similar paradigm (free vs. paid).  Google something like "sites like rapidshare" and you tons of them.

    you can share both your entire screen, or just a specific window of program in your computer.  it is not possible to give someone a remote access to your computer through skype, and it is also not possible to share your mouse and keyboard.

  • I updated my iOS to 7 yesterday. But my music app doesn't show the 'Radio' button as the online videos and Apple website claims. What could be the reason and how to fix it. All other apps, swipe up/down seem to be working fine.

  • To share my videos and songs on WhatsApp

    I unable to share my videos and song on WhatsApp from nokia lumia 520

    Hi. How are you trying to share the media files? Is this using the app itself or are you going to Videos or Music (Music+Videos in WP8) and share from there?
    Refer to this link for the information: http://www.whatsapp.com/faq/en/wp/23711096.
    BTW, are you getting any error message? Does this happen regardless of the connection you're using?
    We'll wait for your response.

  • Hello can some please help I am trying to watch my HBO go on my apple tv I have sound not picture. I can watch my iTunes videos and youtube so I know it works. it is working

    Hello can some please help I am trying to watch my HBO go on my apple tv I have sound no picture. I can watch my iTunes videos and youtube on my airplay with my ipad and everything is updated so I know it works. But not on HBO go, Max go, showtime go.

    What you want to do does not work with an iPd running iOS 5. See the screenshot.
    The latest update for HBO GO does allow for AirPlay on Apple TV - sound and video - but only on devices running iOS 6 and Apple TV running 5.1.1 or later - according to the app description.

  • Can i share iTunes music between my kids with different apple id's?

    Can i share iTunes music between my kids with different apple id's?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes, even though they have their own IDs for the iTunes Store, if everyone uses the same ID for home sharing, you can share the content.

  • How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11

    How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11?

    I've met the problem too before. but i solved it with  Audio Converter Mac instead of iMovie. If you have similar situation that just want to keep audio but not video, and if your file format is not workable in iMovie, you can use the Audio Converter for help too. it can easily help to extract audio soundtrack from any video format. Or if you need to convert one audio format to another, it is a good choice too, because it supports many common audio output formats.

  • I have just upgraded to 10.8 on my macbook pro and now I can't access itunes, videos and there is no sound - anyone help?

    I have just upgraded to 10.8 on my macbook pro and now I can't access itunes, videos and there is no sound - anyone help?
    It is an old macbook pro probably 6yo with the back lit keys - not under applecare anymore obviously. I downloaded the upgrade last night which took quite a while longer than it should have.
    Anyone else experienced this and can suggest something? many thanks Jo

    Run Software Update, wait till all the updates have finished downloading then restart the mac.

  • Can i make a video and use an external mixer for the sound?

    can i make a video and use an external mixer for the sound with my ipod touch?

    You need a special plug to use the iPod's mic in for the headphone jack. If you compare a headphone plug for a set that includes a mic and one that does not you can see that there is a difference.
