How can I watch a DVD playing on my iMac on my TV using Apple TV?

You can't. The only way is to transfer the movie to your computer and import to iTunes (making sure it is compatible) and either use home-sharing or airplay the movie off an ios device.

    In addition to garyfromrio linda's excellent response, make sure you go into System Preferences>Hardware>CDs & DVDs.  Set it to When you insert a DVD:  Open DVD Player

  • How can I keep a photo image from fading away on my tv using apple tv.

    How can I keep a photo image from fading away on my tv using apple tv?

    Thanks for you reply.  When I paint, I bring up the photo as you suggested.  I begin painting.  After about 10 minutes or so, the photo goes blank.  And, I have to start the process over again to get that same photo.  It interrupts the painting process.  I think it goes blank due to a sleep function.  I have gone into the Apple TV settings and turned off the sleep function.  But, this does not seem to work.  What can I do to keep the image on the TV screen permanently?

  • How can I do mirroring of a screen from new iPad to hdtv using apple tv and still work on something else in my ipad

    How can I do mirroring of a screen from new iPad to hdtv using apple tv and still work on something else in my ipad

    You don't. Mirroring is duplicating your ipad screen on another projector - so you can't have another app going on your iPad without it also showing up on the projected image. Some apps are designed so that you see a different image in the iPad than the mirrored out display, but even then you're within the app itself.

  • How can I watch a DVD movie on my Satellite A200-1HE with WXP?

    Hello,
    I have purchased a Satellite A200-1HE notebook and have uninstalled Windows Vista. Now I have installed my own purchased copy of Windows XP and downloaded the drivers from Toshiba web site. But now I want to use the computer to watch DVD videos and/or write CD disks, for example, and I cannot find the software provided with the notebook (Intervideo, Disk Creator, etc.).
    Do I have RIGHTS for that software? How can I download and install them FOR FREE, since I just don't want Vista, I want to use XP?
    Thank you
    Wagner R. Landgraf

    > How can I download and install them FOR FREE, since I just don't want Vista, I want to use XP?
    This additional software was bundled only with the Toshiba image and cannot be downloaded for free! You must understand that there are different copyright restrictions and only original Toshiba software (drivers & Utilities) can be downloaded from the Toshiba page.

  • How can I get rid of error 9705 on iMac with Firefox update, using Musicnotes site

    I have been downloading successfully from musicnotes.com on this computer until the Firefox update. Help from that site took me through a whole process to be able to print out my purchase, which ended in the error message 9705. AppleCare says it is a Firefox problem. How can I fix this? (Time Machine was not running.)

    I have this problem also and I've tried all the same things you have. None work. Only thing that works is disabling Java in Firefox preferences, which is a pain in the ass because most websites don't work properly when Java is disabled.
    I don't know how to delete Java plugins or delete Java altogether and re-install. Is this possible? or wise?

  • How can i watch my DVDs on my iPod

    I just bought Quicktime 7 Pro and using that i can put videos i find online into my iTunes, but i havnt been able to find any information on putting my DVDs in iTunes so i can watch them on my iPod. I have a Powerbook, the new Quicktime, and the new iTunes. I was surptised I couldnt find any information on the subject as im guessing multiple people have been wondering the same thing. Thanks so much.

    This is illegal.
    It is illegal because our legal system and many around the world have ruled it illegal.

  • HT2499 How can I watch a movie and have two subtitle tracks at once?

    How can I watch a DVD using Mountain Lion's DVD player with multiple subtitle tracks, such as english and chinese, simultaineously?

    This will depend on the media player. I do not believe DVD Player in OS X offers this, and don't think even versatile players like VLC or MPlayer support it. Most give you the option for one subtitle track at a time.
    One option is to use a transencoder like Handbrake to rip the DVD and "burn in" one of the subtitle tracks but include the others. This way the burned in one will always display, and you can then enable the second one. It's a bit of a workaround, but will ultimately do what you're looking for.

  • How can i install iwork dvd in Macbook Air?

    Somebody know how can i install iwork dvd in Macbook Air? I try to use the CD compartment from my Macbook pro, but it don't work... tks

    First, share your MB pro DVD drive on the network in System Preferences > Sharing.
    Insert the iWork DVD into the MBpro's drive.
    Then go to your MBair and click "Remote Disc" in the Finders Sidebar.
    You'll see your MBpro listed in the finder window.  Click the arrow next to The MBpro name and you'll see the shared DVD.  Double click that and the installation process should begin.
    Regards,

  • How can I watch MKVs on a DVD player and keep 5.1?

    Hi,
    I have several MKV files which I want to convert to play in a DVD player/Xbox 360.
    I want to keep the hi def and 5.1 sound in the newly encoded file.
    I have tried using Handbrake with some success. The video is outputted in hi def and it plays in my Xbox but for some reason Handbrake keeps downmixing the audio to stereo.
    Is there a professional package that can do the job? How can I watch MKVs on my players and keep 5.1 surround sound?

    You need a Thunderbolt or mini DisplayPort to composite converter like this one:

    Yikes, unless you can find one for much less than that, I'd put than kind of money toward a TV with HDMI connections.
