Can't find Apple TV on my MacBook on the same Wifi.

I use public Wifi in my apartment which requires registration to use it.
My macbook and apple TV is registered to the system separately and they work well.
I can do web-surfing with my laptop and watch youtube with my apple TV.
However, my laptop can't find apple TV so I can't use airplay. Several months ago, I could see apple TV on my laptop so I used airplay but it suddenly dissappeared.
I suspect this is due to different IP address. The first two part of the IP is the same 169.231.xx.xxx but apple TV has a different IP in the last two part from my laptop.
Please help!

Didn't iOS 8 resolve this issue?
"With the new operating system you are now able to communicate between your mobile device and an Apple TV without Wi-Fi using AirPlay. This means for those of you who are having trouble getting Wi-Fi in your gym/teaching space, you won’t need it anymore."

How can you find out if another VI running on the same computer and how can you find out the name of that VI?

Suppose that several VIs running simultaneously on the same computer. How can I find out the names of the running VIs, from another VI?
If the already running VIs are clones of the same basic VI, open and run with the option "Prepare to call and forget", how can I find out the names and index of each clone?

I had an application where I spawned (= ran with Start Asynchronous Call) multiple (reentrant) copies of VIs, and would occasionally "lose control" of them. I needed a way to find all VIs that were running "Top Level" and stop them (so I didn't have to log off from Windows).
I used the Application Property "All VIs in Memory" to get an array of (wait for it ...) All VIs in Memory. I took each name, opened a VI reference to it (simply wire the name string in, as the VI is, by definition, "in memory"), looked at its VI Execution State, and if it was Run Top Level, Invoked the FP.Close and Abort VI Methods. [To prevent the VI that did all this from "committing Suicide", I compared the name string with the current Call Chain, and did nothing if there was a match].
I think you could adopt this idea to do what you need.

Own OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. MSOffice 2004 was taken out because of computer repair and now can't find disc to reinstall. But WANT the Office 2004, not Office 2011. Where can I find one and are all Officew 2004 the same

I own a OSX 10.6.8. IMAC with Snow Leopard. my MSWORD Office 2004 was taken off when computer was repaired and now can't find the disc to reinstall. Do not want the Office2011.. Where do I find the Office 2004 and are all Office 2004 choices the smae.

Hi Martha - Amazon offers office 2004 on their website.
http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Office-2004-Standard-VERSION/dp/B0001WN0M2
That will be your best bet if you want to have office 2004 on your computer. Also, there are some different versions want to come to office. The link above gives you the standard version, but there's also the professional version. Now it sounds like that you do not want to upgrade to the latest office because you're most likely comfortable with how 2004 works. So in that case I would not spend the extra money and pay for the professional version unless you really need it. I see on the website there that if you buy a used copy it will only cost you around $10.
Hope this helps!

HT4356 Do I need an App to print from my iPad to my new HP AirPrint capable printer? My iPad says it can't find a printer and we are on the same network.

I have a new HP LaserJet M1217nfw MFP that is supposed to have air print. My iPad isn't reading it. Is there something special I need to do? Both are on the same network and my laptop is working fine with it. Any suggestions?

1. Make sure it's setup for network printing

2. You can try using this App

3. Reboot router, printer and iPad if necessary

Can't figure this out: locating a MBP on the same wifi network

Can't figure this out: when my 13" MBP is connected wirelessly to my Airport base station, my iPad can see it. When I connect the MBP to the base station via ethernet cable (for faster connection), the iPad can no longer see it.
Note: my airport is not connected to the internet. I'm simply wanting to setup a closed network for the iPad to connect to the MBP. There's nothing else on the network. The app on the iPad is locating the MBP by ip address so it must be a permanently assigned number.

Am having the same problem.
Everything was working fine until yesterday.
Now if I connect my iMac to the Extreme with Ethernet the Airport is not visible and I can't connect to the internet.
iPods and iPhones can still use the wifi to get on the internet.
If I switch the iMac to Airport it works, but, will not work with the Ethernet cable connected.
Have tried changing ethernet cables and still no go.
Can't figure this out.

"Shared" tab on Finder when connected to the same wifi

I have this concern about the "Shared" tab on Finder wherein every time I connect to the same wifi as someone else, this "Shared" tab with our computer's name appears. Its just a privacy concern because this means that whenever I connect to the wifi they would know that I'm connected.

Go to the Sharing system preferences and disable any shared services you have enabled, and this should prevent your Mac from being auto-discovered on the network. Specifically do this for Screen Sharing and File Sharing to prevent your system from showing up in the Finder sidebar of another Mac; however, others like printer sharing will also have your Mac be discoverable in ways, though not directly through the Finder.

iDVD is software for DVD authoring. What are you trying to view? Find the movie file, make sure it's in the correct format and import into iTunes. Then you can stream to ATV

Why i can't play my music from my iPad on the same apple ID on my macbook pro? it say's iam gonna accept my computer and where am i gonna do that

Possibly nobody has answered this in 10 hours because your question is not clear. Accept? What exactly are you trying to do?
Do you mean authorize?

My I pad can't find my printer but my macBook pro can. How can I print from my Ipad?

How do I print from my ipad? it says it can't find my printer but my macbook can.

Is your printer AirPrint compatible? My MacBook can see my printer but my iPad doesn't because my wireless printer is not AirPrint Compatible.
Here are all of the AirPrint printers.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
If your printer is not on that list, you need a third party app in order to print - Print and Share, Print Central, you can use Printopia for the Mac. Search for other apps that will let you print using your current printer.

Can I connect more than one Macbook to the same Apple TV?

As per the title. My friend and I live together and want to connect our seperate Macbooks to the same Apple TV. Is this possible? If so, how?

Does this mean we can register two Macs to the same ATV but only have one connected at a time?
If so, that's exactly what I'm after.
Thanks.

Can't Set up to Apple Pay and can't find Apple Pay in my Passbook

I have updated my iPod Touch 5th Gen. to iOS 8.1. I can't set up to Apple Pay in my Passbook and can't Find Apple Pay in my PassBook in my settings.
How do I set this up for my iPod Touch?
In My settings My PassBook app is not Listed but it is listed in the Notification section, but my Passbook app shows in my iPod Touch? How do I add or can I add the Passbook app into my settings?
How come my Passbook app isn't listed in directly in my settings like all the other apps?
I really want to have and use the new Apple Pay in my iPod Touch, I had watched the Keynote and they said that the Apple Pay could be used on the iPod Touch 5 along with the other Apple mobile devices? If the Apple Pay can't be used on the iPod Touch 5 then this is very unfair, I know for a fact that they said that the Apple Pay could be used for the iPod Touch 5!?

But thats Not Fair to us iPod Touch People?1 We would like to be able to use the Apple Pay too?

Who do we complain to and how do we get Apple to Allow the iPod Touch People to have access to Apple Pay?
Sorry, you are wrong. Apple did NOT say Apple Pay would be available on all Apple devices. Apple SPECIFICALLY stated that Apple Pay is available ONLY on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Previous Apple devices, including your iPod Touch, simply do not have the hardware chip (called NFC) to make it possible.

If I have 2 tv's and each their own apple tv can I display the same program to them from my macbook at the same time?

If I have 2 tv's and each their own apple tv can I display the same program to them from my macbook at the same time?
for instance Keynote?

Welcome to the Apple community.
The Apple TV cannot display keynote presentations or websites from the computer. It can display them via mirroring from the iPad 2 or better or the iPhone 4S.
You cannot AirPlay to 2 Apple TV 2's at the same time from an iOS device. You can watch the same video, TV show or listen to the same music from your iTunes library on multiple Apple TV's at the same time.

Which iPhone app?
Don't just enter usernames and passwords into apps unless you know what it is for and why it wants it.
