How can I restrict ONLY the ability to make purchases  on an Apple TV?

I would like to set a password for purchases on my Apple TV in order to prevent my children from accidentally purchasing content. I am able to do this, however, turning on restrictions also forces a password to be entered to open the Netflix app. I do not want to restrict Netflix or any other app that doesn't offer purchases.
I'm finding this to be a very frustrating problem and I also find the lack of some sort of purchase restriction as a default setting very suspect. The device should protect from unwanted purchases from the start, and it should not be so difficult to block unwanted itunes purchases without also blocking out other apps (If that's even possible). I've been using apple products almost exclusively for over 20 years primarily because they are (were) user-focused and user-friendly... I'm very disappointed in this oversight, and frankly it's hard to believe that it isn't intentional.
Apologies if this isn't the place for complaints. If anyone can help me with this problem I would be very appreciative.

I don't know what AppleTV can handle as far as bit rate is concerned, but increase the bit rate as high as it will let you. You are taking DV which is 25Mb/s and compressing it. If you're making an H.264, you should get great results needing no more than 6Mb/s. Bear in mind, the higher the bit rate, the larger the file size.

  • How can I sync ONLY the top photo in the stack?

    I sync various Aperture photo albums to my IPad and iPhone. The problem is that when I have 'stacked' images (eg. one image showing in the album and two other copies 'hidden' underneath), all of the photos in the stack are copied to the ipad and iPhone. So instead of seeing just one version of an image, I see as many as are in the stack. How can I sync ONLY the top photo in the stack?
    Thanks for your help!

    I solved my own problem.
    The sync problem seemed to only occur on smart albums. There is a new check box option in Aperture 3 when making a smart album: "sync stack pick only." One click and the problem is solved!

  • How can I print ONLY the active document?

    Whenever I go to File/Print the darn PSE 9 program sends all of the working files in the bin to the printer. I've searched online for 2 hours now looking for an answer.
    I like to work with having several to many files in the 'bin' and prefer to only print the active file I'm currently working on without having to close the 'working files' before I can print. How can I print ONLY the active document or file in the project bin? Please help, I've upgraded from PSE 3 to PSE 9 and really like the updated features, but this one pain in the neck default is getting the best of me.

    Thanks for your help, that works nicely. It is good to have control of the printer again.

  • How can I extract only the audio as an aiff file?

    Using a Sony DSC-N2 Cybershot Camera I recorded video that was saved as “MOV01606.MPG”. The video plays back with sound in Quicktime Pro and iTunes but how can I extract only the audio as an aiff file?

    Use MPEG Streamclip (free) to convert your .mpg files to QuickTime formats.
    QuickTime can't extract audio from muxed file formats.

    how can i erase only the music i don't like from my ipod ?

    Go to iTunes and erase all the songs you don't want from your library or check the "Manually manage music and videos" box, erase all the songs from your iPod and only put the songs you want or check the "Sync only checked songs" box and check every single song in your library (Crtl+Click on a check box (if on PC)) and uncheck the ones you don't want.

    You must configure to sync only the specific items you want on your iPod by enabling the necessary settings from under the iPod's Summary and Music tabs.  Perhaps this article can provide more information and assistance.

    Please help
    Songs that you purchase from the iTunes Store are simply files.  They only sit on the computer where you purchase them, until you copy them to another computer.
    That is how it works.  There is no web site where you can play all your files.  It's primitive I know, but there may be changes coming.
