I have 2 iCloud accounts. 3 devices use one of them as a primary account; my iPhone uses the other as a primary account so I can't stream photos from iPhone etc. What to do?

Sorry, yes indeed you can do that, I thought you wanted to keep the accounts the way they are now and also share photo stream between all devices, which of course is not possible.
In order to login to the account you are currently logged in to as a secondary account, as a primary account, and vice versa, you will need to delete both accounts from that device and then log back into them with the correct account as a primary (settings > iCloud) and the correct account as a secondary (settings > mail, contacts, calendars).

ITunes can't sync photos from my iPhoto after update

Hello, after update my iTunes can't sync my photos from my iPhoto. I'm with Mavericks and iTunes 11.0.5. Thank you and have a nice day

I'm having the same issue with iTunes no lonter allowing me the option of syncing my iPhoto pics to my phone. iPhoto is not offering me an update, though. Any other suggestions?

How come you can't stream photos from a primary library that is "paired"?

I think someone else commented about this as well but I never really saw an answer as to why Apple doesn't allow this. How come you can only stream from a shared or secondary library but for a primary or "paired" libray you have to sync photos. If you can stream from a primary it is not working for me.
Thanks again ATV community!

It's behaving correctly for you, you cannot stream photos from a primary library. Why I don't know, the software has gone through several stages and various options have been offered, so I can only assume it's not an oversight but a deliberate restriction for the better.

Can not send photo from inside iphoto.

I can not send a photo from within iphoto'11. I follow all the steps. It shows my me.com mail address and starts sending but then I get the messate that the server maybe down and try again later. I've tried the smallest version of the photo. So what can be wrong.
This is a MacBook that is partially enabled into the icloud.
Any ideas?

Well actually it isn't the server. I finally discovered if I changed my iPhoto >Perferences> General> Email photos using: "from iPhoto to Mail". I don't know why I can't use the perference "iPhoto" but it won't work.

No, Sky have blocked this function (at least, they have on Now TV, which they own)

HT2463 How can I move photos from my 1st generation Apple TV back to iPhoto on my computer

Accidently deleted photos from iphoto but they are still on my Apple TV. How can I move them back?

Sure. Merely dock your Iphone to your computer. Then, open up Itunes, your phone should show up there. Click on it and go to the photo section and do as you please.

Can I stream video from my mac to apple tv the same way my ipad or ipod does?

I just got my AppleTV hoping to stream video to it from my iMac. I'm seeing this is possible with mirroring, but there was a ton of lag between the computer and tv, and the sound and video would skip horribly. I plugged the ATV into our ethernet and that has helped tremendously, but there is still some visual lag and skipping going on with the video, noticable enough to drive me crazy when watching something like a movie.
However, I noticed that when I stream the same video to ATV with my iPad, it uses a method other than mirroring; the video is greyed out on the iPad with the ATV symbol on it and sends the video to the tv instead, and it plays seamlessly! I wish I could say this is the solution to my own problem, but most videos I wish to watch are in a flash format, which does not work on iPad and I would therefore need to use my iMac instead.
So, leading back to the title now, is it possible to stream a video on the iMac without using mirroring, such as how ever it is the iPad and iPod are able to do it?
My iMac is the newest model currently out I believe. 27", i7 intel processor. The AppleTV is also the newest generation I believe. I just got both barely two weeks ago from the store here.
Any help is appreciated, let me know if you need any more information.
Thanks!

I've set everything else up but cannot figure out how to display my laptop screen onto my TV.
As Keithjammer indicates, the TV2 does not "mirror" your screen as the platform's video interface does. Instead, the TV2 device is a wired/wireless remote multimedia player. As such, it only plays files in a compatible compression format. To do what you want it to do would require your platform to first compress the screen audio/video data to a compatible format and then stream it to the device in real time.

Yes, only files can be streamed. You can, of course, capture your screen audio and video data to a compatible file and then stream the file to the TV2 device.
...except from both London Drugs (where I purchased it) and Best Buy (where I double checked).

Can you stream Netflix from an iPad to Apple TV?

Hi,
We have a relatively small TV set and sit relatively far away from it. Therefore making Netflix choices with Apple TV and remote is difficult, since the print is too small. It would be way easier to make Netflix choices with the iPad on my lap, and have the iPad stream the movie to ATV.
Airplay works well with Apple apps like iTunes & iPhoto, but does it work with non Apple apps? If so, how does one get it to work?
Thanks,
Klaus

Can you stream purchased movies from Apple Time Machine to Apple TV?
No.
Time Machine is an application.
Time Capsule is hardware (what you have).
As suggested, you download them to iTunes and they will work fine on the AppleTV.
So, what I was wondering, is it possible to stream from Apple Time Machine to Apple TV, i.e. use Time Machine to store your movies for Apple TV?
Yes but you need a computer running iTunes.

Can't stream Music from iTunes to my Apple TV

I bought an ATV for the sole purpose of being able to stream music from my PC iTunes account to my Samsung smart TV. As it turns out, that is the one thing my ATV will not do. I have had my ATV for about three months and have never been able to stream music to it from my PC. I do not see my ATV as a device in iTunes and I do not have the airplay icon visible in iTunes
Gear
3rd generation ATV
PC running Windows 7
Here are some things which work fine on the ATV:
Netflix works perfectly e.g., it sees my wifi network
Youtube works perfectly
Under Music I can see the 2 songs my wife purchased from the iTunes store – I purchase all my music from Amazon.
Things I have done
Turned Home Sharing on and am using the same account in iTunes and on my ATV
Reinstalled iTunes – 11.0.2.26
Updated ATV to latest software
Rebooted my computer – several times
Rebooted my router – several times
How do I resolve this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried a new approach and unplugged my ATV brought it over to my computer and connected it to my router via ethernet. This caused the airplay icon to show up on the transport bar in iTunes. I could select the ATV as an output. I disconnected the ethernet cable and reconnected the ATV to my TV. The airplay icon remains in iTunes but the ATV is no longer there as an option - only my computer speakers. Any ideas?

How can i stream movies from my pc to apple tv

I would like to stream HULU movies that are on my PC to Apple TV. How can that be done?

Only compatible video files from itunes can be streamed from a computer.
If these are downloaded and unprotected files rather than streaming in a browser you may be able to convert them and add to iTunes.

How can I stream videos from my browers with apple tv to my tv?

Is it possible to stream the content of my webbrowser,i.e. videos to my tv with Apple tv? in some videos the airplay button appears in some not?
Any idea? Or does not work at all?
Thx
K

Some apps support airplay and others do not, it is the choice of the app developer. You can mirror far more from your browser IF your mac book pro is early 2011 or newer (mid 2011 for all other macs) and you run OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. For older macs third party apps such as airparrot or reflectorapp will help. I have successfully watched tv series through mirror (albeit older ones in SD) with excellent quality using mirror and safari.

Can you stream movies from time machine to apple tv

Can you stream purchased movies from Apple Time Machine to Apple TV?
I have both an Apple TV and an Apple Time Machine. Both great devices BUT my internet connection is not great and apparently, the telephone exchange needs to be upgraded in order for it to improve and right now, the phone company has no plans to upgrade the exchange . So, I've bought movies from Apple TV and have downloaded them (using Apple TV) and watched them. They seem to stay on Apple TV for a few days before they need to be downloaded again if I (actually my kids) want to watch the movie again. Problem is, it takes about 15 hours to download a regular movie due to the poor internet connection. My kids don't have that much patience. I know I can download a movie onto my Mac and stream it from there to Apple TV but that means I have to have the Mac available. Since I work at an office and take my MacBook to use at work, it isn't always there for the kids to get their daily Frozen hit. See the issue I face? Apple TV and Apple Tme Machine are great devices. Can they be used in conjunction with one another?
So, what I was wondering, is it possible to stream from Apple Time Machine to Apple TV, i.e. use Time Machine to store your movies for Apple TV?
Thanks
Philip

Can I stream Xfinity from my Ipad to Apple TV

I just purchased Apple TV and I want to sent my Xfinity content from my Ipad to my TV. I thought I could do this with Airplay but I can't find any instructions on how to do so.

I with you on this one Harry. That's is just ridiculous option. What 50 different network apps to forever toggle on and off. Perpetual searching through showtime listings. The technology is there and being created by innovative, amazing people and companies. And it's all being held back (and our freedom to create at personal entertainment ecosystem that works for us as individuals) by a few of these cable companies. They're bloated, grotesquely outdated, Poorly serviced and immensly over-priced. The potential is already there. Better service by better companies. MUCH faster speeds are capable. Better quality products. And more importantly, freedom to have what you want, the way you want in. All of this is being throttled by cable companies. You could go on and on. FCC's no better. Typical story. Regulated agencies with too much, money, power and influence. Blah blah blah.
Anyway, Comcast are a bunch of hacks. Why can't I AirPlay from the app on my iPad. Why? Give me a valid reason? I look forward to the day that something/someone razes that crappy empire and it's lifetime if executives to the ground and there's nothing left but rubble.
