Can I watch CNN or any news on ATV2?

I have been using a ATV1 for some time and now wants to add a new ATV for my office.  My key objective is to watch news on my TV but don't want to connect it to a cable box.  Rather I would like to connect my TV to ATV ONLY for content.  Through iTune, I think I can only stream iTune content to ATV and is there a way to watch CNN?  or browse the web on ATV? 
Thanks

Not currently.
AppleTV supports Netflix, Vimeo, YouTube and some subscriptions sports type content for video.
No news/cable channel feeds as such.
It does not have a web browser.
Potentially if there are iPhone/iPad apps for some of these news feeds you want or they have iPhone/iPad compatbible web pages (non-Flash) you may be able to select the content on an iPhone/iPad and transmit it to AppleTV using Airplay.
Apparently next iOS version will allow ipad 2 to mirror its screen on teh TV via AppleTV so browsing web on iPad shows on TV.
Airplay is all very well but an extra cumbersome step in the process in my opinion not to mention the need for charged or power connected portable devices.

    I get as far as what appears to be restoring my phone then when the software has downloaded, iTunes insists on my phone accepting it's access. I had carried out this action two weeks ago when I had the same issue on my phone and managed to restore it successfully, but it isn't happening now. I have updated iTunes to the latest version since the last time, and also my iPhone to the latest version.  I have had endless trouble with this phone so having gone through all the steps suggested in various forums it is clear that it is an issue with the phone, not helped by the recent iOS and iTunes updates with stricter security.

  • How can i watch downloaded films on new ipad ???

    help i have several films downloaded on my laptop but would like to watch them on my new ipad any ideas how i can please????

    Import them into the iTunes library and then sync the iPad. You may need to use MPEG Streamclip or iTunes to convert them to MPEG-4 first.

  • Can't watch CNN online

    When I try to watch CNN online today, I get a message that says "You are not authorized to view this content. Please contact your TV provider for further assistance". It never asks for a username or password, just asks to select my provider, then displays that message. CNN is included in my channel package. It used to work online.

    To rule out being a browser issue, have you tried using a different browser or using a different computer?

  • IMac PC does not support latest Adobe FP/can't watch Youtube/Only solution=new computer??

    I can no longer watch You Tube because the latest version of Adobe Flash Player
    will not download to a PPC. I run Tiger 10.4.11 (I know that's ancient but it works
    very well!) Does this mean the only way to view You Tube would be to buy a new
    computer? Everything runs perfectly except You Tube. I've never been a big fan of the site
    I still would like to have access to it but buying a new computer to get one site seems
    like a bridge too far. I have Adobe flash Player and but not the latest version.
    This problem only happened recently which seems strange. I even have a
    couple of videos on the site and have access to my account. I can get the site and my account but
    first the sound stopped playing a month or two ago but the videos still played. Now the videos
    don't play at all. From what I've heard, only a computer with Intel can accept the latest version of
    Adobe. Any thoughts or tips??

    It will work on a PPC Mac running Leopard, but not Tiger:
    I am in the same boat. I run a G5 PPC iMac and I cannot watch flash videos on the BBC website or on BBC iPlayer, and it struggles on YouTube.
    For reasons that passeth all understanding, they all work with the PPC version of Firefox, called TenFourFoxG5.app, once you have enabled plug-ins, as it does not natively support Flash.
    You can download TenFourFoxG5 from here:
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    Now for the interesting bit: TenFourFox, like Firefox, does not support most plug-ins. Unless you are prone to headaches (in which case don't) you can read about that here:
    http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported
    But there is a workaround!
    Open TenFourFox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
    Look/search (scroll down) for: tenfourfox.plugins.enabled
    Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
    Now close TenFourFox, open it again, and Flash will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored.
    I am using Flash 11.5.502.55 in TenFourFox and it works just fine. Here is how to get a working version of Flash Player:
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC (G4 or G5) Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’.
    (If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, try the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the version 11.5.502.55:)
    Download this http://scriptogr.am/nordkril/post/adobe-flash-11.5-for-powerpc to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • Can you watch movies on the new iPod nano?

    I know you can watch movies on the iPod video, but i wasnt sure if i'd be wasting my money on buying a movie from the itunes store and not being able to watch it.
      Windows XP  

    The iPod nano does not support video. The processor is not strong enough, along with other things.
    Also, do not try iPod Linux, even though you might hear that its awesome.
    1. Even iPod Linux does not support iPod nano downloads.
    2. Voids any Warranty you have on yoru iPod.
    3. Not unusual for it to leave your iPod as a large domino, and with no warranty, you're out of luck.
    I hope this helps!

  • Can't watch South Park with newer Flash Players?!

    Hi!
    I have a problem that has been troubling me for some time. I am not able to watch episodes of the cartoon South Park on its website www.southparkstudios.com with Flash Players versions 11 and above. I had to reinstall version 10 which works fine. Otherwise I only get a black screen instantly. I am running Windows 8 x64 with Firefox 26. Can anybody tell me what the reason for this is, and if I can fix it somehow? I have already switched from WIndows 7 to 8, the problem remained. I also uninstalled the Flash Player according to Adobe's guide and reinstalled it, nothing helped. I can not disable hardware acceleration, it just stays activated. The problem does not occur with Internet Explorer 11, but I prefer Firefox... Also, other websites I frequent like Youtube are not affected, as far as I can tell.
    I would really appreciate any help in this matter!
    Best wishes
    Alex G

    I feel for ya. Gotta have my "Butters" fix at least twice a week.
    Check C/Windows/System32/Macromed/Flash and C/Windows/SysWOW64/Macromed/Flash.
    You should see:
    and
    If that's all there, try Resetting Firefox

  • Can H55-GD65 MB use any newer CPU than 1st generation?

    I am trying to find out what the H55-GD65 board can use for a processor? I see the list only has 1st generation i3, i5 or i7 chips and am wondering if this board can use anything newer? I also looked at the bios updates and they do not say whether they updated the list or not. It seems that you can only use a Clarkdale chip from the 1st generation chips, is this true?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    Can I use any of the 1155 pin CPU's is more of the question at this point?
    No, it is not possible. Only the ones and the BIOS versions to support them as listed in the link.

  • I can't watch videos on Youtube in HD ever since that mess with HTML5 last month.

    So in February there was a brief stint where Youtube decided to force everyone to watch videos only with the HTML5 player, which forced many Firefox users to watch videos with only 360p and 720p as resolution options, and even at 720p the video was blurry and playback was choppy. I tried using a couple different add-ons people made to force Youtube to use Flash Player again, but the video quality was even worse than on the HTML5 player so I removed them. And now, even after Youtube allowed Flash Player to be used again, ever since that mess happened it's affected the videos I watch. Now I can't watch videos in any real high definition, because on any resolution option the videos become "fuzzy." The edges of people, text, and objects are pixelated and either blurry or jagged and not crisp and sharp as they should be. I also have problems with "rippling," where it seems as if thin, vertical lines are moving on the screen and subtly distorting the video. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Flash Player, Firefox is on the current version, and everything else on my system that I know of is up to date. I have also tried watching videos in safe mode. Nothing changes. I can't get the videos to look normal again. For almost the past month I've had to start using Chrome specifically just for Youtube because nothing I do will get it to work properly again on Firefox.

    Hello,
    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • What/any new features in AirPort Extreme 5th Generation?

    Apple Support has deleted tech specs for 2G & 4G AirPort Extremes, so it's difficult to compare those previous gens to the latest. Can anybody comment on what/any new features are in AirPort Extreme 5th Generation?

    FCC filings indicate a more powerful signal coming out of it, and different radio positioning.  Longer range, and probably more even distribution of signal.

  • Can't watch video taken from iphon on PC

    I've taken several videos with my iPhone but I can't watch them on ANY pc. I tried on my home pc, laptop, work PC, and a friends PC. I just get the message that the video file can't be played. I've got Itunes, quicktime, and all the other apple programs. The videos play just fine on the phone. Any ideas?

    The iPhone records video in the H.264 video codec, which should be included as part of your install of Quicktime. What version of Quicktime are you running? You might check and see if there is an update that you might need to install. Do you have problems playing videos on the Apple Movies Trailer website? If yes, then you might be missing the H.264 codec for some reason. If no, then maybe the file is getting corrupted somehow when you copy it from your iPhone to your PC. I've has instances where a file said it finished copying and I tried to play it and couldn't (I got the same message you got from Quicktime), so I copied the file again and the file worked the second time.
