Help getting my atv set up in hotel room. Just has home sharing and setting option
I tried setting my Apple tv in a hotel room...I have good internet service but the apple tv isnt recognizing it. Says it wont connect to the internet. All my other devices connect ok.Will let me know what the wifi is but doesnt give me the option to put in the passwrd. Has anyone ever had this trouble before?
Here is a link to a similar issue on a other forum that worked for me: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4557509?start=0&tstart=0

When I click on the Music tab on my Apple TV 2, a message tells me I have to set up iTunes Match to stream music from my iTunes library on my iMac. I don't want to set up and pay for iTunes Match. How can I get back to the pre-Match system which let me just use home sharing to stream music from computer to Aple TV
Ditto.
You need to look for your itunes library under Computers and select it, then music.
Music column is for web based content not local content, just to confuse everyone.

How do I retrieve my iTunes library from a broken computer onto another computer?? I've clicked on home sharing and also authorized the new computer to my account but still nothing!
It would help if you would describe what a 'broken' computer is. Did a truck run over it? Does it just not turn on? etc.

how do I get the downloaded music on my iphone to my new home pc and itunes, it took the info from the 1st device but not the 2nd
the appletv will not display your movies in folders.
you could change the tags in itunes to include the genre in the "show" field in the "video" tab. this would replicate the view you want, but you will need to tag all your movies to do this. -
I have 2 apple tv's but my playlists only show up on one; can I get them to show up on both? I have home sharing turned on and itunes match.
If you are attempting to share to both at the same time, you can't.
Are you selecting the second AppleTV in home sharing options on the MBP. Are all devices signed in for Home Sharing with the same AppleID?
You will also find some additional things to check here: Troubleshooting Home Sharing -

my dvd player is not working when i try disk Utility i get this massage Warning: SUID file "usr/libexec/load_hdi" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Is this bad?
No. Ignore it.
What does this mean?
That you have the current OS version installed.
As far as I know, I have not installed any Remote Access software on my Mac.
It's part of the OS.

1. It means that the current software is installed.
2. It's not something you should try to fix.
3. Verifying and repairing permissions shouldn't be done as routine tasks.

Help* Getting a pop up that says Your Apple computer has been blocked
My partner was using my laptop yesterday and was trying to download the NHL hockey game stream from nhl-stream.com. He tried downloading it and downloaded MacKeeper and some video player. This morning I realized what he did so I googled how to uninstall MacKeeper and did so. I was unable to find the help file to delete for MacKeeper. I also deleted the video player and everything recent from the downloads. Now I'm havinganor problems with my MacBook Pro. When I use Safari it's no longer my regular Google homepage it's search-quick.com which I cannot get rid of? (Anyone can tell me how that would be helpful)
My biggest problem is the pop up that comes up and says
*YOUR APPLE COMPUTER HAS BEEN BLOCKED*
Mac System Alert!!
System has been infected due to unexpected error! Please Contact Apple Care 1-855-680-7080 Immediately! To unblock your computer....
I Googled other pop ups like these on apple support and they says to hit Control W to close the window then change security preferences. The control W does not close the window I can only get rid of it by clicking Force Quit. Then when I reopen Safari either the Popup immediately comes or the first website i search it comes. Sometimes I also get new windows open for MacKeeper. This is very frustrating and I am still learning on how to work around my Mac. I have never found a problem with my computer before he went and downloaded the game.
IF anyone can direct me in the right direction to have this removed so it's safe again to go on my banking etc that would be great! I tried to call apple support but of course my call support has expired!Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, close Safari, and then launch it with the Shift key held down. If that doesn't work, temporarily disconnect the computer from the Internet.
If that message continues to appear, click here and run Adware Medic; the MacKeeper popups may also be produced by adware. You may need to use a different web browser.

I can't seem to get sharing set up. I set up my wife's iMac and I use a PC. When I click on the Library tab at the top right, I don't get the option of seeing the music library on her iMac.
Both libraries would need to have been setup to use home sharing with the same Apple ID in order for that to work.

ATV Home Sharing and Connection FIXED (finally)
I'll start off by saying once upon a time Apple products worked togather with only minor hiccups. Not ture any more!!!!!!!!! Why because they rush products/softwater/firmware out the door without fully testing and so much intergration with iOS and not enough focus on the bread and butter of Apple's legacy (Steve Jobs perfection first).
The not so simpe fix:
1. Wireless router (one and only one) in other words NO additional wireless routers connected in bridge mode to extend wireless capabilities.
2. Assign a wirelss Client ID on your computer. For Mac open (System Perferences - Network - WiFi - Preferences - TCP/IP - DHCP Client ID:)
3. On your router setup a DHCP Reservation. On a Apple router open Network - + to add Reservation - use DHCP Client ID not Mac Address.
Enter the same name as you used on you computer. Enter a IP address such as 10.0.1.50
4. Shut down computer
5. Shut down router
6. After router restarts, restart computer and see if the IP address is the same as you reserved on your router, (if not you did something wrong).
7. Repeat the same (#2, #3, #4, #5, #6) for the ATV. Your ATV client ID is what you named it. You can fine out the name of your ATV by goin to Settings- General - Name. If you use spaces between words you have to add them as well. Note: #3 must be different such as 10.0.1.80
8. Open iTunes on the host computer and insure Home Sharing is enabled.
9. On the host computer (for Mac) open System Preferences - Energy Saver and move the slider for the Computer Sleep to NEVER.
10.KEY TO SUCCESS IS #9
This process has worked for me, and has never filed.
Until Apple figures out why ATV is not waking your computer and dropping your Home Sharing connection you can use the above steps.
Hopefully this helps someone else!Sorry forget #7 on the list.....that was from earlier testing.
