    How can I watch a DVD playing on my iMac on my TV using Apple TV?

    You can't. The only way is to transfer the movie to your computer and import to iTunes (making sure it is compatible) and either use home-sharing or airplay the movie off an ios device.

  • Can I watch video through my iPhone and TV at the same time?

    Can I watch video through my iPhone and TV at the same time while using the Apple composite video cables? I am planning a trip in my car and would like to play videos for my kids through their video screen while my wife watches on the iphone from the passenger seat. I didn't want to spend $50 to find out it doesn't work.
    Thanks in advance!

    It doesn't work that way, sorry. When video out is being utilized, only the movie artwork (the cover or image) is displayed, and the actual movie is not displayed on the iPhone's screen.

  • Went to watch a video on You Tube that I have watched before on my iMac and got the prompt that I had to upload Adobe Flash Player.  Did that, and am still getting the same prompt and can't watch any videos at all.  What is going on here, Apple??

    I do not know how to do this with an Apple TV (I don't have one), but as far as I know Apple TV only does mirroring.
    If you have an HDMI cable long enough to reach your TV from where you sit, then it's easy. The TV could be set up in Extended Desktop mode (mirroring off) as if it was simply another computer monitor, and then you could just drag windows to it. If you have the Displays icon in your menu bar, that's where the setting is, or if the icon is not there, then the setting is in the Displays system preference. But again, that's for conventionally connected monitors, not Apple TV. If you don't have an HDMI cable and wanted a long one that's affordable you can get those at monoprice.com.
    The answer we are still waiting for is if anyone knows if Apple TV can be used in extended desktop (non-mirroring) mode.

  • How can I keep a photo image from fading away on my tv using apple tv.

    How can I keep a photo image from fading away on my tv using apple tv?

    Thanks for you reply.  When I paint, I bring up the photo as you suggested.  I begin painting.  After about 10 minutes or so, the photo goes blank.  And, I have to start the process over again to get that same photo.  It interrupts the painting process.  I think it goes blank due to a sleep function.  I have gone into the Apple TV settings and turned off the sleep function.  But, this does not seem to work.  What can I do to keep the image on the TV screen permanently?

  • How can I do mirroring of a screen from new iPad to hdtv using apple tv and still work on something else in my ipad

    How can I do mirroring of a screen from new iPad to hdtv using apple tv and still work on something else in my ipad

    You don't. Mirroring is duplicating your ipad screen on another projector - so you can't have another app going on your iPad without it also showing up on the projected image. Some apps are designed so that you see a different image in the iPad than the mirrored out display, but even then you're within the app itself.

  • If i have a dvd on my macbook, can I watch it through apple tv?

    Can I watch a dvd on my laptop/macbook through apple tv?

  • Can i watch tv through an app called "TVCatchup" on a normal tv without an aerial by using the iphone?

    i have a TV in a room without an aerial socket, I use it simply for watching DVD's and playing Xbox. i picked up a cable the other week made by Belkin that allows connection from my iPhone4 to my tv but i wasnt sure if that is to simply view saved photos and videos, or whether i can wacth tv programmes through an app.
    As it happens the cable didnt work and a follow-up search online proved that cable doesnt work with iPhone4/4S but the Apple Stores do sell a cable that will work with the iPhone4/4S, so my question as said is; can i watch tv programmes that are transmitted (persuambly wirelessly via my internet router) via an iPhone app, but on a normal tv using the Apple cable?
    The cable obviously at one end has the iPhone/iPod etc plug and the other end is the red/yellow/white connectors.
    Hope i have caused too much confusion, appreciate your help and feedback.

    yeah iphone4 dont support mirror
    so if it will work 100% depen on the app in question if it support tvout it will work if not it will not

  • HT1657 can I watch online through my tv via a HD DVD with network capabilities (i.e. netflix, pandora, etc.)?

    can I watch a movie through I tunes on my Sony Bravia TV through my network enabled HD DVD player. I can get netflix, pandora, itunes etc.

    Don't bother with VGA. If you have a Mac with a Thunderbolt port and a TV with an HDMI input, you can just get a miniDisplayPort to HDMI adapter (the Thunderbolt port supports miniDisplayPort connections). There are a number of such adapters on the market, including at least two sold through the Apple Store.
    Regards.

  • HT1657 Can I watch a rented movie (rented in itunes) on my TV using an HDMI cable?

  • Can I plan movies from my amazon library on my HD TV using Apple TV

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes either the Apple TV or the AirPort Express can do that for you.

  • Can I view a video from my macbook pro on my TV using apple TV while doing something else on the laptop desktop? I.E. watch a video on the tv, while searching the web on the laptop screen?

    First off, I just want to clarify that I know how to view my macbook screen, videos, music, photos etc. through the apple tv connected to my hdtv. What I'm trying to do is use it like a second monitor. For example, I'd like to watch a video from the web through the apple tv on the hdtv screen, while simultaneously able to search and use the laptop like I normally would. I know there are two desktops with Mountain Lion, but I haven't been able to figure out how to link one to the apple tv and leave the other as the macbook. I know I've done this before when I had a macbook 13" and a cable connector, there was a setting in system preferences to view one screen (tv) with a video, and then still have the macbook screen free to search for files, the web, etc.... This is different from mirroring, but I haven't located this setting on the new macbook yet.
    Ideally I'd like to be able to use my hdtv as a second monitor so I can be sorting and organizing photo files on the macbook, while viewing full size high resolution images on the TV screen. I've got a ton of photographs, close to a personal library you could ask me for a type of photo and I've probably got it, but there is a decent amount of extras, doubles, and just stuff I don't need. This would really help me get organized and allow me to share my work a little bit more efficiently.
    I appreciate any insights and hope I can return the favor.
    Much Love

  • Can't watch TVshow/movie on mac(itunes) and switch video output to Apple TV

    I just got my 2nd gen Apple TV, great product. From the website and the announcement I was to believe that you could be watching a movie/tv show on your mac (using itunes) and have the video automatically "pushed" to your TV by selecting the Apple TV within itunes (continuous play), like music does. I know you can go through the Computers Menu directly on the Apple TV to gain entry to the same content but I thought you could continually watch the show and switch the output to the Apple TV.
    Maybe this only be applicable for iPod/iTouch/iPad devices when the new iOS is released with airplay? Or maybe this will become an available function for itunes on macs when they enhance airplay with the new ios? Or maybe I am missing something really basic.
    Let me know ....thanks

    i don't recall that actually specifically being mentioned at any point, so where did you see that you could do that?

  • I can't watch shopnbc on my iPad from their website. I used to be able to watch it live, but now it says error loading file. Help?

    Having issues with watching shopnbc live, from their website, on my iPad 4. I used to be able to watch it live, but for some reason, when I select the play button, it tells me "error loading file" . That's it. Anyone know a fix for this, or what may be going on here?

    My guess is that they recently changed how the videos work. I logged in on my MacBook and the stream worked fine, but it is Flash content in a JW Player video player. From what I see on the website. This video player works with html5 as well as Flash so I'm not sure why it isn't working, unless the site has not updated the content for html5 and is only using Flash right now. But you should get the message on the iPad that the content is in Flash and can't be viewed on the iPad.
    I tried it with three different browsers identifying as mobile and as desktop browsers and I get the same results as you no matter what I do. So my assumption is that the site content was recently changed and it has to be updated. But that is just a guess.
    The message about the website having issues when I used iCab Mobile and identified as a desktop browser. The issue has to be on their end.
