Does anyone know how I stream non-MP4 movies to apple TV?

Just migrated from PC to Mac Book Pro...love it but dissapointed that I can not stream non-MP4 movies to Apple TV as I do using CineX Player on my iPad.
Does anyone know a work around???
Many thanks

"Air parrot" will stream your desktop to Apple-TV.
So if you use VLC or somesuch player that has a "fullscreen" mode and plays non-MP4 movies you can stream your non-MP4 movie to AppleTV. I've done it, and it works OK, and it is as requested a "work around".
You can try it out for free (http://airparrot.com) and if you like it, it's not very expensive.
Only problem I've encountered is having to use the Mac's system preferences to switch sound back to the Mac after I've finished with Air Parrot.
Hope that helps.
Robert.

    I don't know of there is anyone than can fix this age old Apple problem.   Does anyone know how to retrieve apps under an old Apple ID when the email used for that account no longer exists & I can't remember the password? After speaking with Apple Acct. Security, I got the security Q right but my birthday was wrong! They wanted the serial number from my phone that was 3 iPhones ago! Seriously??!!
    Any updated way to work around this? No Apple people can correct it.
    Thanks,

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

  • Does anyone know how to remove non-music data from ipod?

    Does anyone know how to get the data that is not songs off of the ipod. I cannot figure it out

    With disk use enabled, you just open the iPod in Finder. You should be able to see the folder with the photos in it. If you want to copy them to a place on your computer, just drag them there, or to delete them altogether from the iPod, drag them to the trash.

    hi i'm trying to watch premium movies on my iphone and i need a flash player
    does anyone know where i can get a good on for free?

    You can try one of the app/service combinations for playing Flash such as Skyfire , Puffin, or iSwifter. One of those might work for you, though they all have limitations.

  • Does anyone know how to post an official complaint to Apple?

    My newly arrived Iphone 5 about 3 days old and costs around $1000 has to be replaced with a refurbished Iphone 5.
    Here is the story:
    I was looking forward to Iphone 5 and pre-ordered it and waited for about 3 weeks. It arrived on Friday the 12th of October, i was really excited about it.
    After playing around for about 2 days, i have found that my silent/mute button is not working as expected, the switch seems to be loose and keeps toggling on and off. After browsing around the web, i've found that this issue is commonly found with the new Iphone 5.
    Heres what it looks like exactly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGECFTPPZw4
    So, i decided to book an appointment with my local Apple Store (Sydney, Australia). When i got there, they told me that my Iphone 5 can be replaced. I was expecting it to be replaced by a new one but they offered me a refurbished one. I was going to exchange it (reluctantly), but after giving it a closer look, this refurbished iphone5 seems to be a 'reject' product, since the color of the SIM card tray (white-ish grey) doesn't match with the black iodised aluminum frame. The difference is noticeable (i compared it with my faulty Iphone 5), so i declined it.
    I would like to return it if possible rather than getting it replaced with a 'refurbished' one, but im not sure how to refund it since i bought it from Optus Mobile Contract.
    I am very disappointed with the inconsistency in the Apple warranty, last time i bought an Apple Macbook Pro Retina (2 months old) and had some issue (No bolt attached to the SSD tray)  and they replaced it with a new box. Im not sure why i can't do the same with my faulty Iphone 5 (3 days old).

    It is most unlikely your replacement is anything other than new
    Refurbs are recycled through the Apple supplier's Factories
    I doubt that there has been time for that process and has already been mentioned early failures
    are probably checked out thoroughly before being recycled
    In any event you would never know the difference between new and a refurb
    I have had  x2 in past and certainly could not
    depending on your consuer laws you can probably get your money back
    if you are that concerned

  • Does anyone know how to remove an unfinished movie download from an ipod touch

    I need some help with my ipod touch 4
    I download the movie but it showed that i dont have enough space and it wont let me to remove or delete the movie. I tried everything but no luck. I dont want to see unfinished movie download stuck in my download for vidoes. I want to remove it ASAP so i can download any program in future.
    I tried it all day but no luck. So frustrated.

    Yea - that's what I'd try'd first. Unfortunatly the Snow Leopard Server was not able to remove those Items from the Mountain Lion System after the update. So I updated also the Server to Moutain Lion Server. The interessting part was, that after the server update the MPB wasn't registered any more on the server. So I'd registred it again und published a new Dock policy. That worked fine so far, and brought up this nice new policy icon in the system settings and removed the broken link. How ever, the plan was to deregister the MBP again because I dont want to manage it over the server anymore. At this point I'd faild and get was back to starting point, because the stupid system restored the old brocken links...
    I guess I have to understand how ML store the non users specific Dock settings as well as the network registrations from the old system if I want to fix it. Unfortunatly I did'd find an answer to that quastion. So maybe you have an idea?
    kind regards

  • Does anyone know how to transform audio to movement?

    I know there was other discussions about similar subject, but what I'm looking for is to mimic what's on videocopilot website.
    The tutorial is called audio to animation and the link is
    http://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials.html?id=64
    Is this possible in Motion 3? I've been trying to mimic this by my own, but I can barely able to control replicated object.
    Any suggestions?

    Did you use the Audio parameter behavior? It's pretty straightforward and quite powerful.

  • Does anyone know how to actually report a problem to apple?

    I can't find anywhere on the support site how to report a MobileMe problem to them. They lost all of my calendars and I have no course to be made whole again. They say there is email support, but that 1 Infinite Loop thing is more than just a street address. I'm very frustrated that I can't find a way to get support for a product I pay for on a subscription basis as well as having several devices that work with it that are now handicapped by its failure. I tried calling the number and they hung up on me. I went to the store and they sent me to the website...
    I found this too:
    Email Support Currently Unavailable
    Email support is currently unavailable on the MobileMe support website. Please visit our U.S. Chat support for assistance. Chat support is available 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. central, 7 days a week.
    Message was edited by: Bill T.

    No, there's a live-chat option for MobileMe members at the bottom of this page:
    http://www.apple.com/support/mobileme/
    under this:
    *Customer Service and Technical Support*
    Get answers to your MobileMe questions and exclusive access to chat support for MobileMe members below.
    The problem is that the live-chat feature doesn't appear on page load. First you need to choose a category from the column on the left, then a topic, then the chat option comes up, although it is unavailable from 7 PM to 8 AM CST.

  • Does anyone know how to change .mov to a supported file extension (and what extension would you suggest)? .mov works on Apperture 3.0 so I thought it would work on Final Cut Pro X....

    Hi Tom
    Thanks
    I am now doing some 1 minute import tests from various Q/T's
    They are all in the same place on an External 1 TB Western Digital - connected by Firewire 800
    I have just imported some 1 minute tests from  other Q/T 's and they have imported Ok - quickly imported and transcoded etc fine and quickly.
    Using your suggested methd of getting the details using Quicktime 7 Movie Inspector I can see NO DIFFERENCE in the formats!  In fact with four of these files open I can click on each in turn and see the Inspector details for each in turn - and only the name, size etc changes - not the format!
    I am really upset and confused by this as I have been trying for the last four days to get these imported.  I realise that this is small potatoes to those who are having problems with even FCP 7 Files!  But, these are q/t's of 30 hours worth of unique reserahc material I shot in Africa. I have made several programmes from this material before (one even shown on Discovery!)  I WAS hoping that I could use the new and all singing FCPX to make some new programmes for teaching purposes
    But, how can I do that if only some will import?  As I posted elsehwre - i get the message "No importable files"
    I am REALLY grateful for your expertise and advice here
    thanks

    PS  I am using Lion

    I accidently deleted Safari and now I can't reinstall because it keeps telling me there is a newer version on my computer.  The issue is my system does not support the newer version.  Does anyone know how I can get around this?

    Apple wanted to charge me 50 bucks jsut to talk to someone! 
    I believe you may be referring to the $49 ASL agreement at AppleCare? That is only when/if you are out of AppleCare Protection.
    Can you get to an AppleStore Genius Bar?
    They may be able to fix this for you. No charge.
    I highly doubt that. There is a $70 charge for troubleshooing software issues, EVEN IF there is AppleCare Warranty on the hardware.
    However, since there is no charge for an appointment at a Bar, go make one, and see what options they give you. Let us know how it goes.

  • Hi,does anyone know how the Iwatch will play music when it is not near a bluetooth device as it is stated in the feature setting..Icloud streaming,internal hard drive?

    Hi,does anyone know how the Iwatch will play music when it is not near a bluetooth device as it is stated in the feature setting..Icloud streaming,internal hard drive?

    I did not hear them state the feature requirements directly in the streaming even but there are statements on the Apple website that clearly say that an iPhone is necessary.  I'm guessing that other than Bluetooth for pairing with the iPhone, it's just not technically possible to fit any other radios such as WiFi or LTE into that form factor or battery capacity.  I don't even remember them mentioning if it had a speaker or could pair directly with bluetooth headphones.
    While I'm hoping that the watch has a reasonable stand-alone feature set, they didn't make it clear what exactly it can and can't do without an iPhone nearby.  I also hope that they communicate this better in the coming days.

  • TS3297 Does anyone know how to reset your security questions?? I loaded an itunes gift card on new ipod but when trying to make a purchase, itunes is asking us the incorrect security questions?!(for 1st time purchase)

    Does anyone know how to reset your security questions?? I loaded an itunes gift card on new ipod but when trying to make a purchase, itunes is asking us the incorrect security questions?! (for 1st time purchase)  I know the questions are not what I chose because I wrote the questions & answers down when setting up the ipod. Any ideas??!!!

    Reset Security Questions
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    Manage My Apple ID
    Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
    If all else fails:
      1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
      2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
      3. Then choose iTunes Store;
      4. Then choose Account Management;
      5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
          Continue;
      6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
      7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
          like your security/challenge questions reset;
      8. Click Send/Continue.
    You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
    In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
    Another user had success doing the following:
    I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
    Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
      a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
          tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
      b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
          "done", in the upper right corner
      c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
          Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
          should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
          security questions.
      d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
          selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
          should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
          questions.
    It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
    Good Luck friends!
