If you are using the 2nd or 3rd gen Apple TV (little black box) then it would have no syncing or storage capability.
iTunes content would be accessed using home sharing.

If you are referring to the 1st gen (bigger aluminum box with hard drive)

    You'll have to download the latest version of iTunes app from Apple' site.

  • How do I remove a secondary apple id from my Mac? I am being prompted for a apple id password for a former user; I do not have the information.  Prevents updates from App Store.

    How do I remove a secondary Apple ID that is not in use from my MacBook pro? The ID does not belong to me and when I attempt to download updates from App Store with my Apple ID, I am prompted for the password of the secondary Apple ID.

    Is this a second hand Mac? If so, you need to erase the Mac and install the version of OS X that shipped installed on the Mac from the factory. Then you set the Mac up as new with your Apple ID.
    User Linc Davis explains how a new owner can prepare a 2nd hand Mac for their own use.

  • When trying to statup with install disc inserted,all i get is an apple logo.when i try starting using command v it seems to see the cpu,but does not list any drivers.any thoughts appreciated!

    when trying to startup with install disc inserted,all i get is an apple logo.when using command v keys,it seems to see the cpu, but doesn't list any drivers.any idea what,s wrong?

    That is the wrong system disc, the Mid 2007 Mac Mini's originally came with Tiger 10.4. You must have been sent the wrong disc, because that gray 10.6 system disc is obviously for a later Mac.
    Mac mini (Mid 2007) - Technical Specifications
    At this point I'm afraid that your options are very limited.
    1. Call Apple, have your serial # handy and ask for a replacement Tiger disc set. Problem is that it wouldn't be of much use, except for maybe running the Apple Hardware Test.
    Apple - Support - iMac - Service FAQ
    2. Purchase a Retail Snow Leopard Upgrade disc.
    Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)
    As for the RAM, if 2GB is shown in both Apple / About This Mac and in the Activity Monitor then there is a pretty good chance that's it OK. Of course it is hard to test without the original disc set and in your case may need to be done with a third party RAM checker like Memtest OS X

  • E-mails from an email list used to be listed under "Sender" by the individual, but now the Sender is the name of the list and so: how can I go back to how it wa

    I belong to an email list. Until a few days ago, emails to this list arrive in my in-box with the Sender as the individual who sent the email. Now it simply says the name of the email list. This means that I can't know who has sent an email until, and if, the person signed her name at the bottom. I want to go back to the way it was.

    I have never had this problem and can't recreate it however Try this
    '''Open Thunderbird''' choose '''View''' from the menu bar select '''sort by''' and then choose '''From'''
    Answer 2 '''Open Thunderbird''' select '''Tools''' from the menu then '''Options''' select '''Advanced''' select the tab marked '''Reading and Display''' in the area marked '''Display''' there is a '''check box''' which says '''Show only display names for people in my address book'''.
    These may not be the solution let me know

  • How do I remove an old apple ID from my Mac?

    I changed servers and email etc.  Now my Mac continually asks for the PW for the old ID and blocks access since that ID does not exist and cannot be communicated with.

    If you're being prompted to update apps from the App Store, you'll either have to sign in to the Store under the old ID or else delete those apps and download them again under the new ID. If they're paid apps, you'll have to pay for them again.

  • How can I find an audio book on my 4th gen shuffle? Can't find it even when it's set to play in order. Tried setting it to Sync audiobooks but a warning says 'do you want to remove existing songs from other itunes library? and I don't want to do this.

    How can I find an audiobook on my 4th gen shuffle? Can't find it even when I play in order. When I try to tick Sync audiobooks it asks if I want to continue to remove existing music befoer syncing and I don't want to do that. Can anyone help?

    Did you already load the audiobook manually (by dragging it to the shuffle)?  To confirm that the audiobook is on the shuffle...
    Select the shuffle in the iTunes sidebar.  If the sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    Click the small triangle to the left of the shuffle name (in the sidebar) to drop down its content list, indented below the shuffle.  Click on Audiobooks there.  To the right, your audiobook(s) should be listed.
    NOTE:  if you don't see Audiobooks on the content list, there are no audiobooks on the shuffle.
    When you turn ON the shuffle, you are playing from the default All Songs list.  Audiobooks (and podcasts) do not play from the All Songs list.  You need to use VoiceOver to select the audiobook from the playlist menu.  This document explains how to set up and use VoiceOver on your shuffle

  • Hi I have recently had my computer reset and now can't find my original playlist on itunes for my ipod how can I find this or how can I put my music from my ipod onto itunes

    Hi I have recently had my computer reset and now can't find my original playlist on itunes, how can I transfer it from my ipod into itunes, or how can I find the original one?

    Expanding on what The Fiend said, the license to play music from a CD is tied to and stays with the CD. So if you sell or give away the CDs, the license to play the music goes with them, at which point you legally no longer have the right to the tracks. You need to keep the CDs if you want to keep the music.
    As for transferring the tracks from your iPhone back to your computer so you don't have to re-import all your CDs, check out this post from Zevoneer for some iPod/iPhone media recovery options:

  • How can I find out what apple IDs are tied to an email address

    We are trying to set up FaceTime and got the verification error on the email address.  We went in to the Apple ID account and when we verify the email address, it tells us that it's tied to another AppleID.  My daughter has 3 other AppleIDs and we've checked each one of them and the email address is not tied to any of them.
    How can we find out what apple ID is tied to this email address?
    We have used the "Forgot my Apple ID" function and used all 3 of the different email addresses she's used on the accounts and when we access the one that says there's a duplicate, it takes us to the account and it's the one with the email address that I noted above.
    Any thougts or help?
    Thanks!
