Forgive a newbie-how can watch streaming video without it 'dimming' ?

I am constantly having to move the mouse as it goes dim every 4-5 minutes. Thanks in advance!

The 17" Powerbook can't boot off Mac OS 9. Yet your profile says you are running 9.1. Are you having this trouble in Classic mode under Mac OS X, or are you booting into Mac OS 9 on another machine where you are streaming, or are you streaming in Mac OS X on your Powerbook? Knowing which of these three you are doing will help us know which command to give you to change the automatic Energy Saver settings.

  • How can I stream video from a P/DVR to my Mac

    Hi, How can I stream video from a Motorola dcx3400m P/DVR to my Mac? I have tried a Slingbox but the audio is out of sync witht the TV and it drives those watching on iPads or on the iMac in another room NUTS.
    Is it possible to use a TV tuner of some sort. I've looked at the eye TV thing but I live in Canada/USA region and the eye TV products all seem to be for Austrailia or the UK. The one product that might work is a DVR and I don't need to pay for that as I already have one.
    HELP!
    Jeff

    If your Mac has an audio input jack you can connect the output of a cassette machine to it (3.5mm stereo jack required). However many don't, so you will need a USB audio interface - Roland make a range. Alternatively you can buy cassette decks with a built in audio interface.
    You will need a program to record and edit the input: Audacity is free and is often bundled with USB-enabled players.

  • How can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

    how can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

    Wirelessly: you need an AirPlay - enabled device such as an AppleTV.
    Wired: if your TV has an HDMI port, you need a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter such as this one:
    Mini DisplayPort to HDMI® Adapter w/ Audio Support
    If your TV does not have an HDMI port you will need a converter that will convert HDMI input to whatever input your TV requires.

    How can I stream video from my laptop to apple tv while doing a different task on my laptop?  I want to be able to stream a video to my tv while browsing the internet or working on writing on my laptop. Thanks

    You would have to use airplay within iTunes then, unless you want to use 3rd party software (ie Beamer)

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    OS X can't write in NTFS disks. If you want to write in NTFS drives, you have to use a third-party app like Paragon for NTFS, being this application the best one to write in those disks.
    Another option is to format the external disk in FAT32 or exFAT on a PC, so you will be able to read and write in Macs and PCs without having to use third-party apps. Do it on a PC and copy the files of your external drive to the internal disk first

  • How can I stream videos that come into my imac directly to my AppleTV and then my TV

    how can I stream videos that come into my imac directly to my AppleTV and then my TV?

    Or... you can just use a 3rd party solution.
    Best solution for streaming audio and video to your Apple TV from an Mac or Windows PC... without using iTunes... is Airparrot. You can screen share your Mac to your Apple TV. It even lets you select your overscan/underscan and video quality.
    Download it and install. It shows up in your system tray. As long as you are on the same network as your Apple TV, just right click the Airparrot icon and select Apple TV as your Airplay device.
    http://airparrot.com
    Then hook up your wireless keyboard and mouse and plop on the couch for some supersized web browsing.
    It's 20 minute sessions for the free version, $9.99 for full and can gift to someone for $4.99 if you buy for yourself.

  • How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

    Hi
    I have bought my iPhone 3G yesterday. I have found out how to transfer music from iTunes however i can't transfer videos. I'm selecting the videos i want to transfer on the videos tab after i chose my iphone from the side menu and pressing apply. iTunes says that its syncing my iphone but it doesnt transfer the videos.
    Lately i have found out a function on the advanced menu for movies as "create iphone or ipod version". When i used that it transfered that video to my iPhone however the sound was completely lost besides that action takes too much time(around 10 mins for a 3 min video and i have a pretty strong computer).
    How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

    One thing I'd recommend is that you make sure the video/audio you're trying to transfer falls within the guidelines listed in the 'Video' section here:
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
    What's most likely happening is that the file is not converted as such so when you try to transfer it, it's wanting to convert it but is unable to for any number of reasons.
    There's software out there that might make this easier for you but I can't recommend anything specifically.

  • How can I stream video from a 2006 MacBook Pro (1,1)

    I have a MacBook Pro Intel Core Duo from ~2006 (version 1,1) and I'm trying to figure out how to stream video to my TV. Is there a solution via Apple TV?

    Hey rattlesnake,
    Thanks for the question. I see that you are running Mac OS X 10.6.8, which is compatible with the latest version of iTunes (11.1.2):
    Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Once you have installed the latest version of iTunes, you can utilize AirPlay from iTunes to an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation):
    iTunes: Using AirPlay
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5922
    To stream music or videos from your computer to an Apple TV or AirPort Express:
    1. Connect your computer and Apple TV to the same Wi-Fi network.
    2. Open iTunes.
    3. Locate and click the icon to the left of the iTunes LCD window.
    4. Select your Apple TV, AirPort Express, or AirPlay-enabled speakers or receivers from the list of available devices that appears and begin playback.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • How can I stream video from my computer to my tv?

    I want to know if and how I can stream video over my wireless network from my computer to my internet ready Sony TV.  The TV is connected to an Airport Express.

    Well you could go with the Apple TV, or you could just use the streaming functions built in to your Sony TV. As I don't know about Sony smart TVs I can't tell you anything about the TV's streaming functionality.

  • How can I stream video with Flash?

    Hi guys!
    I have a placeHolder MC in my main movie.
    Within the placeHolder is an external swf containing an mpg
    video.
    How can I code the preloader of the external swf to stream
    the mpg?
    Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
    All the best,
    Mark

    if you mean stream as in streaming video, you need the
    communication server.
    if you mean preload the file, you can do so with various
    components in flash.
    loadMovie
    Loader
    MovieClipLoader
    and more that escape my mind atm.

  • How can i stream video from Safari my MacBook Air to Apple TV.

    I've been tryingt o stream videos from my Mac Book Air to Apple TV that is connected to my projector but dont seem to see any options in safari to stream to Apple TV.  Have anyone tried this?  Is this possible?  My IPad can do it but dont understand why Mac Book cant.  Please assist!

    I Figured it out!  I put the Display chooser into the toolbar on the MacBook Air and there is a little selection that allows Mirroring.  I switched it on, got video, sound, and a happy man on my hands.  AND I found the correct answer myself, heh, heh, heh.

  • How can i stream video over apple tv from Macbookpro?

    I can stream video(youtube) off my Iphone, but not Macbook. On my Iphone an icon shows up for some video streams that allows you to select appletv to stream the content to tv, but I don't see that same Icon when browsing and playing youtubes or video on my macbook.???

    Unfortunately with that speed you are not going to have a good experience with HD streaming. I would make sure everything is set to stream SD. Go into the settings - iTunes Store and you can switch there for any purchases/rentals made through them.
    If you use Netflix (or other streaming sites) go into your account(s) and see if you can switch to a lower quality stream. I know Netflix has that in place.

  • How can I record video without sound?

    I would like to record videos without audio on my iphone? Is their a way to record videos without sound in the default camera app? If not than does any one know of any apps that can?

    Do you happen to have your phone set for mute?  Apparently (with the Note 3) this would also mute recording of sound in videos.  Using normal recording mode?    Slow mo and other modes may not record sound either.

  • How can I stream video from my Ipad to my apple tv?

    I just got the Apple TV 3rd Gen so I could stream from my IPAD to the TV in my gym in order to stream some of my workout videos. I got the Apple TV set up and connected to the television (HDMI) and to my WIFI and my Apple account etc. however, I can't get it to find my Mac Mini, Ipad or IPhone 5, all of which are set up for home sharing on the same network and all of which just updated the other day. I can't find the Airplay on my devices other than the Apple TV. When I try to connect using Bluetooth, my Mac Mini sees the Apple TV and attempts to pair but the Apple TV just spins and searches contionuosly. My ITunes syncs correctly with my phone and Mac Mini and I can't find any issues there.
    Any ideas how to get this working?

    Thank you. I wasn't able to locate the symbol. I have read some other community responses to others and finally figured out how to access it. Hopefully it will solve my problem.nthank you for your assistance...

  • How can I stream videos from my browers with apple tv to my tv?

    Is it possible to stream the content of my webbrowser,i.e. videos to my tv with Apple tv? in some videos the airplay button appears in some not?
    Any idea? Or does not work at all?
    Thx
    K

    Klasch
    Some apps support airplay and others do not, it is the choice of the app developer.  You can mirror far more from your browser IF your mac book pro is early 2011 or newer (mid 2011 for all other macs) and you run OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.  For older macs third party apps such as airparrot or reflectorapp will help.  I have successfully watched tv series through mirror (albeit older ones in SD) with excellent quality using mirror and safari.
