Can I use Apple TV to play iTunes from my iMac on my home stereo?

How does Itunes from my Imac connect to my home stereo using Apple TV?

Greetings;
When you launch the iTunes Application, down in the lower right hand corner, you see an icon and "Speakers". Select the Apple TV device and iTunes will then use the Apple TV as an external speaker.
You can also access your iTunes music and movies from the Apple TV menu. With your iTunes Application open on your computer, select "Computers" from the Apple TV Menu.
You'll also need to turn ON "Home Sharing" in the iTunes Application. You can find that setting in the "Advanced" menu option in iTunes.
Hope this helps! All the best...and Merry Christmas!

Can I use apple tv to play music via wireless speakers?

Can I use apple tv to play music via wireless speakers without turning the tv on, or do I also need to purchase airport express device?

Well, this is a C&P from your link:
With Apple AirPlay and Audio Pro Wireless you can stream iTunes playlists and songs from your Mac, iPad and iPhone wirelessly to Living speakers or RX100 receivers anywhere in your home. Just connect our transmitter to an Airport Express and select your Airport Express unit as sound device on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch. Now let the music flow.

Playing music from my iPad through my home stereo?

Can I play music from my iPad through my home stereo using AirPlay and an Airport? Is this the way to go?

Do you actually have to have either an TV or an AirPort Express on your network in order to get the AirPlay icon to appear? Because I cannot find it, but I do not have either device.
How/Where do you find it in the Video app?

Can I use apple pay in the itunes store? it doesn't appear to be the case.

I'm trying to make a purchase on the iTunes store from my iphone 6 plus, iOS 8.1.3. I have Apple Pay set up on this phone and want to use that credit card/Apple Pay but the iTunes store doesn't seem to accept this as a payment method. Is this the case or have I missed something? If not, why the heck not?
thanks.

Payment methods you can use in the iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store, and iBooks Store - Apple Support
Apple Pay is designed to work with NFC terminals at physical stores. Not for online Purchases.
You can set up the same Credit card you use for Apple Pay on your Apple ID for iTunes, and App Store purchases.

HT2589 how can i use apple id in the iTunes without credit card

i created an apple id but i can't use it in the Itunes and apple store because i don't have a credit card i don't have money to buy application i want just the free ones what sould i do !!!!!

If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)

Can I use TM to copy my iTunes from old Mac to new Mac ?

I just bought a MB Air and I have 30 GB of music on my MB Pro. Can I use the TM backup from the MBP to transfer the data to my MB Air ?
Unfortunately Migration Assistant doesnt allow you to be too specific regarding files etc.
Thanks

Yes I understood that from your first post. I thought I was missing something in Migration that would allow me to specify the files to transfer.
No, it doesn't.
Where does the plist file go and whats it for ?
it goes to the same place on the new computer as it was on the old one. It's the preference file for itunes. with it once you copy your itunes folder and start itunes, itunes will look exactly as it did on the old computer.

Can I use Apple Pay to buy something from a friend who also has Apple Pay?

I am beginning to think this is not possible because no matter how I ask the question, I get nothing.
But, can I use my iPhone and my Apple Pay account to buy something from another who also has an iPhone set up with their Apple Pay?
It seems so simple...but...

Thanks for the quick and to the point response. Too bad. What a perfect use. Oh well, a perfect and safe implementation neglected. I wish they'd neglected to get rid of the magnetic power connector on the new MacBook too.

How can I listen to Music in iTunes on my iMac on my home stereo? system

I have all my music in iTunes on my iMac which is in my den. I would like to listen to my music wirelessly on my Stereo system in my living room. I could use an iPod but I have a much broader range of music on my iMac. Can someone recommend a possible solution. I have thought about Apple TV, would that work?

If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod onto your computer. And here is a guide about how to transfer iPod music to iTunes. Hope it helps.

Can I use my wife's iPhoto update from her iMac to update my older version of iPhoto?

I have a mid 2010 iMac with iPhoto 09 (version 8.1.2). My wife has a newer iMac with iPhoto 11. Can I use her updates to update my iPhoto to the latest iPhoto 11 version if I sign in with her Apple ID and password on my computer? Or do I have to upgrade my own and pay for that separately?
Thanks,
Mark

Why not just give it a try? Based on the limited information you gave I believe you can

HT1918 Can we use apple I'd to purchase from different country iTunes Store

Hello apple friends

You can only purchase from your own country's store - to be able to buy from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it.
If there are items that you'd like to buy which aren't currently in your country's store then you could try requesting that they be added, but ultimately it's the content provider (app developer, record company, film studio etc) that will have to grant Apple a license to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

Can you use Apple TV for a second monitor to a TV (Not mirroring)

I'm thinking about buying an Apple TV so I can have a wireless second display for my MacBook Pro. Am I able to do this or can I only mirror the one display? Am also what is the minimum Internet speed needed for AirPlay

OK - I now have the bits and have set up the system...
Airparrot is great. It allows you to select which display to mirror on the Apple TV. It also allows you to send audio to the Apple TV. I have EyeTV and Front Row set up to use the second dispaly and Airparrot successfully sends this to the Apple TV. However my audio synce problems remain. Whenever I use digital (toslink) sound from the iMac the audio is out by several frames. Unfortunately this even happns if I send both the video and audio to the Apple TV. It is unwatchable. This means I will need to switch to the RCA audio output on the iMac (which is AUX in on the hifi) whenever I want to send video to the AppleTV.
If I play video from the Apple TV (using home sharing) then the audio sync is much better. But this means that Eye TV wont be accessible from the Apple TV menu (now there is an opportunity for a clever programmer).
I have used QT Sync to adjust the sync when sending video to the Apple TV via quicktime. In speech the lips sync at a difference of 8 frames. However QT Sync is no good for playing video from Front Row or EyeTV. There is another programming opportunity...(adjusting sync for all types of output - it would be a good addition to Airparrot).
So in short, I cannot use Apple TV to play TV from the iMac. And the Apple TV menu is much more limited, in many ways, than Front Row.
(the iMac is still running Snow Leopard - which may be partly causing the problems - but there are several reasons why I dont want to upgrade it to Mountain Lion)
