Can I use my monitor and external speakers with apple tv

I have an extra computer monitor (DVI input) and external speakers (3.5mm male audio jack.) Is there  some combination of adapters that I can use to hook up an apple tv to them in order to stream from netflix, and my itunes library?

no but you can get tons of solutions where you connect something to your tv's minijack headset connector and then it wireless transfer the audio signal to a headset
there are both bluetooth solutions belkin have one I use and there are also solutions where the headset is included and they use their own custom protocol
but mind you there is no way to keep such setups in sync in terms of video and audio so if the system is poor in quality or pre-process the audio signal too much it cause audio and visuals to get out of sync

    Yes, No problem at all.

    No - you can share the same iTunes account (my wife and I share the same account). But when you sync the iPads, just remember to select the correct content for her iPad and the correct content for your iPad.

  • How Can I use 2 Macs and a PC with two monitors

    This is for my office at work.
    I currently am using dual monitors and sharing those between a G4 and a PC. I'm using a Belkin switch box for the two computers. I'm adding a Mac Pro. I'm thinking I might use the Mac Pro by itself at another workstation but I would like to use it at my current workstation along with my other machines.
    I'm getting a new 23" monitor with the Mac Pro. I want to use it as my main monitor, then use one of my other monitors as a second screen. Is it possible to use two monitors with 3 computers? I would have to use the new keyboard and mouse (both will be standard, not wireless) on both of the macs and use the PC keyboard and mouse.
    Thank You
    Jim

    I would use the new Mac Pro as the main workstation and attach your mouse, keyboard and your new monitor to it.
    Then use the Belkin Switch Box to connect 1 monitor to the G4 and PC.
    Download and configure 'Synergy' (http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/) on the new Mac Pro (as the primary) and the G4 and PC (as secondary) - This will allow you to deal with only one keyboard and mouse.
    I'm with Malcolm, I would download and install VMware Fusion. VM the PC w/ Converter (http://www.vmware.com/products/converter/) and only deal with the new Mac Pro and G4. With the new Mac Pro, you can fire up the PC VM with 2 cores and have it set to a secondary space. You will not notice the difference.

  • HT1665 how come i cant use other headphones or external speakers with my ipod

    how come i cant use headphones or external speakers with my ipod.sood as you plug either in there is no sound.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • Hi, can I use my old hi-fi speakers with airplay? And will the quality still be good?

    Hello. I want to replace my old kitchen radio / CD. So I'm thinking of streaming my music. And then I wondered, will I be able to use my old hi-fi speakers? And will the quality be as good as my cds?

    Old hi-fi speakers are not AirPlay compatible. The speakers must be able to stream via your Wi-Fi network. Hi-Fi speakers are too old for that.
    Your iMac must be a mid 2011 or newer running v10.8 Mountain Lion or later to use AirPlay >  About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X

  • Can I use Time Capsule as external drive with a Time Capsule?

    I have a Time Capsule set up with AirPort and it works well for backups.  Can I buy a second Time Capsule and plug it into this TC with ethernet and use it as an external drive?

    jshafer wrote:
    So, you are recommending using a USB drive into the TC or using an NAS plugged into the ethernet port...is that correct?
    Yes, correct. USB drive is not fast but it is still mostly going to be faster than wireless.. it is of course slower than ethernet.. so what you are using on your clients dictates what is the rate determining step of the network.
    Am I correct in thinking that an NAS using ethernet connection would be faster than USB?
    Does a true NAS have its own internal backup system?
    Yes, to both.. but remembering the client has to be able to make use of it. ie is also ethernet.
    True NAS is faster than TC as they use RAID systems.. more reliable.. you can replace disks in the raid.. TC is sealed.. and all decent NAS will be able to back themselves up to a USB drive.. on incremental basis.. which is major shortcoming when people try and use the TC in this role.

  • Can i use my smartphone as wireless headphones with apple tv so I don't disturb my wife when I'm up working late

    I've seen that there are a few apps like LocalCast on Android that allow you to use the phone as wireless headphones - is there a way of doing so with Apple TV??

    no but you can get tons of solutions where you connect something to your tv's minijack headset connector and then it wireless transfer the audio signal to a headset

  • Using more than one external drive with apple tv and itunes

    I've searched the forums and haven't found a clear answer for this. Is it possible to use two seperate drives for the itunes library? I've already filled up my external firewire drive and would like to get another one.
    I've read in several places that people are doing this, but haven't found clear instructions on how its done.
    Much thanks!

    I don't think you can have more then one folder designated as you itunes library folder, so you can not have more then one drive for your library folder. However you can use more than one drive for you content. I have 6 drives that I use right now. I store the movies and tv shows on those drives. I drag a movie into then library tab in itunes and it just links itunes to the path of the movie. To do this however you have to unclick a option in itunes. It is the menu that you tell the path to you library, you have to unclick “copy to your library” not sure if this is the exact name of this. If you don't do this it will try to copy the movie you dragged in instead of linking it. I actually have nothing in my Itunes library folder. You can also do this with purchased content as well. Just move the purchase content to a drive of your choice from the itunes library. Delete it from itunes. Then drag it into itunes from the new drive. I hope this all makes sense, let me know if you have any other questions.

  • Can I use Norton toolbar and Identity Safe with Firefox ?

    I currently use Chrome on my Windows 8.1 PC , and I am considering switching to Firefox following good reviews , but I would want to be sure I can use my Norton Identity Safe and toolbar .

    Yes, Norton keeps their Firefox extensions up-to-date with the Firefox release schedule; the updates are usually available within hours (if not minutes) after Mozilla releases a new version of Firefox. Much, much better than other Security Suites that are currently available.
    As already mentioned, all the user needs to do is to run a Norton Live Update after Firefox is updated, although sometimes the user may need to run the Live Update a few times to get all the updates to download and install.

  • Can I use a UK-bought iPad 2 with Apple Digital AV Adapter in Australia?

    I need to give a Keynote presentation in Australia later this year and was considering buying an Apple Digital AV Adapter to connect to a HDTV. I'm currently in the UK and have bought my iPad 2 (iOS 4.3.5) here.
    Are there any compatibility issues that I should be aware of, or can I go ahead and just plug in?
    TIA!

    I think that the HDMI standard is the same worldwide. The digital adapter is HDMI. So, if the TV has an HDMI port and you have an HDMI to HDMI cable, that much should work.
    Folks have reported that a few HDMI TVs do not appear to work with the adapter.

    You can use the 2 TB Time Capsule as a network drive. That means that it must connect to one of the Ethernet LAN <--> ports on the new AirPort Extreme, or connect to the network using wireless.

  • Using Airport Express for External speakers and Apple TV.  When I'm on MAC computer adn using internet sound from Internet does not go through external speakers.  Instead it comes out of Mac computer speaker.  Why?

    Using Airport Express for External speakers and Apple TV.  When I'm on MAC computer adn using internet sound from Internet does not go through external speakers.  Instead it comes out of Mac computer speaker.  Why?

    As far as I know, the Airport Express only transmits sounds via Itunes. So every other sound (internet, but also incoming mail) will be coming out of your mac instead of your external speakers.
