Realize you are going to have to prove to them you are indeed the owner of the account which is sounding somewhat difficult at this point.  This is the disadvantage of the online market.

    how can i play iTunes on apple tv from my mac?  i used to have an icon that synced the two but i can't find that icon anymore

    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)

  • How do i play itunes in windows media

    How can I play itunes in windows media?  I can burn in windows media, but in itunes it says it can't find the device.  Please advise.

    You don't "play iTunes" in Windows Media. Both of these apps are media players: one native to Mac OSX-- iTunes and the other native to MS-- XP; Vista; Win7. The popularity of iPods initially, then iPhones and now iPads caused Apple to make iTunes+QuickTime available for Windows users who wanted to own and use those mobile devices but retain their Windows machines. The issue that you are asking is whether or not you can play your audio files in WinMedia instead of in iTunes. Yes, you can. You will need to launch Windows Media player and import into the library the audio files which are "living" in iTunes. Actually they are in the "My Music" folder of your home on the C: drive.

  • How do I play itune songs consecutively?

    How do I play itune songs consecutively? They either play in a loop individually or stop at the end. Both on Windows and iphone.

    Make sure the Repeat control is off. Tap to cycle between Repeat Off, Repeat and Repeat Track.
    There is a similar control on the iPhone.
    In the Songs view Ctrl-Click on any empty checkbox to ensure all the tracks are checked. Unchecked tracks are skipped during normal track-to-track playback.

  • How Can I play iTunes on my HDTV without Apple TV?

    I am looking for an affordable method of playing iTunes on my big screen HDTV. In other words, I just want to mirror whatever is on my iMac screen on my HDTV. So I want ALL the iTunes features like the visualizer, randomizer, etc. to work without a hitch. Some people were saying they can't get the visualizer to work smoothly. And of course I want quality audio so I can utilize the soundbar on my TV to play MP3s.
    I do not own an Apple TV device but I own a Google TV device called the Vizio Co-Star.
    I was not able to find a Google app to simply mirror what's on my iMac onto my TV screen.
    I reseached and found that there are two apps I can purchase -  AirParrot and Reflector. Is this the best way of achieving what I want to do? Do I purchase both of them on my mac or do I need to purchase one of these and install on my Vizio Co-Star?
    Is there a better or simpler method? I'm up for suggestions.
    Thank you!

    It sounds as if you have an iMac that is over five years old, and therefore has a mini-display (instead of Thunderbolt, as found on newer iMacs) port.
    Have you considered a mini-display to HDMI cable connection?  Here is one (from the U.S. store):

    I am certain a Thunderbolt port would transmit audio as well as video.  I think the mini-display port may transmit audio, but I'm not 100% certain.

  • How do I play iTunes purchased content on a non-IOS Tablet?

    I am planning on leaving the IOS ecosystem in favor of another. How do I play/move content that, I purchased thru iTunes and rightfully own, to these devices?
    Thanks in advance...

    Many non-Apple devices offer simple drag & drop methods for adding content or will come with their own syncing software. You should be fine to add any DRM-free content to them, assuming they support the file format, or you can transcode where the format isn't supported and the original is DRM-free. If you have any DRM protected content you will be limited to playing that on iTunes or an Apple device, as per the terms & conditions of the purchase.

  • How do I play iTunes through my HiFi system ?

    I'm new to Apple support communities having just bought my first Macbook Pro (a 17" 2.5GHz i7 model) and this is my very first iTunes post.
    I’m a bit of a Hi-Fi enthusiast, so, with my new MacBook Pro I've taken the opportunity of completely reloading my iTunes library to disk in high quality Apple Lossless format. Took a while but now I've completed the task I’m really pleased I've done it.
    My question is, what is the best way to connect a Macbook Pro to a high quality Hi-Fi preamp so I can play iTunes through my high quality Lounge HiFi system ? . . .  my Hi-fi system is by Musical Fidelity, and the pre amp a Musical fidelity A5cr, this is a very expensive and good quality pre-amp, which has superb audio quality, but, only has analogue RCA phono inputs.
    I'm guessing one option must be to use the MBP headphone output, either as an analogue or digital source, but I suspect its analogue headphone output will be totally incompatible with the RIAA requirement of the pre amp phono input ?
    I’ve also read some comments about using digital connection – USB DAC’s appear to be an option but I don’t know anything about these or which models (available in the UK) are recommended – anyone got any experience ?
    I've also read in an archived post here that MBP's have an optical output so maybe that could be used as the input to a DAC ? . .again any advice on which is the best way to go much appreciated ?
    Apologies if this question has been asked lots of times before but I've looked through some previous posts and can't find any answers in simple and straightforward language concentrating on the issue of connecting a MacBook Pro to an analogue phono pre amp input ?
    Thanks in anticipation of some advice.

    Apple TV is the right solution for this.   I'm also a hifi fan who now has a giant itunes library in the cloud... and I wanted to play it through my hifi. 
    Get Apple TV for $99, and make sure you have an optical cable (avail at Walmart for maybe $10 I bet).  You also need to buy an HDMI cable but it is beside the point for the hifi purpose.
    Now my setup is Apple TV with optical out to my very decent (not ultra high end) AV receiver Denon 2802 - which gives me DA conversion AND bass managment.   This goes out to my high end integrated amp using RCA cables from the receiver to the integrated amp.    Now just calibrate the subwoofer using the AV receiver's bass management and I am VERY much in business.  It sounds GREAT.
    The receiver acts like a preamp (I keep my integrated with the dial at 12:00 most of the time... sort of like a stand alone power amp with a little gain left over... for TV this powers my fronts and the receiver powers the rest - works very fine).
    Now if I want to be a little more purist about the whole thing, I might buy a separate outboard DAC to go between apple TV and my Integrated amp - cutting out the receiver.   I would cut down the signal path a bit.   But I would lose some bass management - I'd have to work harder to integrate my subwoofer using the subwoofer's dials which is tough...or else abandon the sub and play my speakers on large (which in my experience is never best... psychologically it seems best but it does not sound better if you are pretty good at dialing in your sub).
    Anyway I probably lost you by talking on too long ... but in short - the Apple TV is perfect for this purpose - at least in my setup.   One of the best $99 I have ever spent.   My CD's are all ripped to itunes and are now nothing more than coasters.  I sit in my chair - toggle to the assigned input on my receiver with the remote, use the receiver's remote for volume control, my macbook pro/iphone/ipad) to choose playlists, and enjoy pretty good hifi with my expensive integrated amp, sub and speakers.
    Most of the time, my Apple TV has nothing to do with my TV... ironically.  If I knew ATV would work this well for me I'd have been wiling to pay $250 for it.
    Good luck.

  • How do I play iTunes LP content on Apple TV 2nd gen?

    I've just upgraded my Apple TV 2nd gen, and iTunes on my Mac.
    I can't figure it out. Is it possible to play iTunes LP content ("CDs extras") on Apple TV?

    No, only AppleTV 1 did that and until recently ony AppleTV 1 did iTunes Extras.
    iTunes Extras have just been added so maybe hope for itunes LP, though I gather Extras is streaming only and old itunes downloaded Extras may (I haven't tested yet) be incompatible.

  • How do i play iTunes playlists on sonos system

    I have a Sonos system.I have copied the itunes folder on the NAS drive so that I can play my itunes music via the sonos system, this works fine. However how do I get my playlists to play? Sonos manual and support tell me to copy the itunes music libary.xml file to the to the shared drive (NAS) where the music is stored. This I have done but still cannot play the playlists. Help. If I do get a reply can you make it simple with regard to computer speak. Thanks

    Hi guys, I asked Sonos this very question and they came back with this:
    Hello,
    Thank you for contacting Sonos Support. For Sonos to work, just 1 of our components need to be wired to your router/network. The other components will work wireless with the 1 wired component. Please make sure you have an Apple Express with at least 2 ethernet ports, because the Apple Express with one 1 port is incompatible.

  • How do I play iTunes Music Videos on my PC

    I bought a music video on my iPad and want to play it on my Laptop.
    I can't find anywhere on iTunes on my Laptop where that option comes up. I can search the same music video on the iTunes store on my laptop and it comes up for sale again.
    I used to play them on my PC all the time, but haven't tried it in a year. Did the support for this get removed from iTunes for some reason?
    Yes, I have already asked it to sync purchases.
    Not sure if anyone else is having issues, but I've had more problems since I upgraded to iOS 8 and all the subsequent versions of 8 than I've ever experienced upgrading Windows on a PC, since they came out with Windows ME. Certain features in a bunch of apps stopped working, video playback freezes all the time (this is on an iPad 4), and stuff that I have just bought, regularly comes up telling me that I haven't purchased it, even though I have a receipt for it.
    HELP! I really wish I could roll back to iOS7.X, even 8.1 really, really *****!

    This is for the people at Apple: The iPhone is fantastic and has changed my life, but please work on
    enabling iPhone users to view continuous music videos like iPod users can.

  • How do I play itunes on a DLNA device ?

    I've read that 3rd party software can display my Mac as a DLNA server on my wireless home network.
    Somewhat randomly I chose Serviio as my DLNA server software.  I  can see the serviio server on my Sony BDP-S570 (Blu-Ray Disc Player) but when I share a folder of .jpg files using the Serviio console, I get a message on the BD player side that says "no content available".
    As a secondary problem, I have my iTunes files on a back-up drive and the Serviio software won't recognize that drive (I know, that is a Serviio issue) but when I tried to use the "consolidate" feature in iTunes, it did create additional folders in my "music" directory but no music files were created.
    Any suggestions for how to make sharing my iTunes with a DLNA device easier (and can I control iTunes from my Mac or do I simple get a "dumb" folder structure on the DLNA server that I have to manipulate on the BD player side ?)

  • How do I play iTunes TV shows full screen on a connected display?

    I have connected my HDTV via DVI to HDMI cable and I want to play the TV shows I've dowloaded FULL SCREEN ON THE TV. When I selected full screen, it defaults to playing the show full screen on my macbook and not my TV. I just want to change it so that full screen happens on the TV, not the macbook. HELP!

    You can mirror the displays as you said or just drag the iTunes window to the second display (TV). Then it will play in full screen only on the TV, however your computer screen will go black. Either way you will have no access to your iTunes controls.
    If you want to use your computer while it is playing full screen on the TV, then use QuickTime Pro (not in mirror mode) and choose Present Movie, then click on the display you want it on (TV).

  • How do I play iTunes Extras?

    I have upgraded my AppleTV with the new 6.2 upgrade and my laptop with iTunes 11.3 that are supposed to support iTunes Extras on the AppleTV. How do I access the content on the Apple TV?
    I have tried with newer movies that I have in HD like The LEGO Movie and Frozen both of which are listed as having compatible iTunes extras which I can watch in iTunes 11.3. (The LEGO Movie was purchased directly from iTunes, Frozen was a Digital HD copy that came with the BluRay).

    Well, I'll chime in with my own test….
    Cleopatra (Burton/Taylor 1963) downloaded to iTunes some time ago in HD.
    iTunes Extras files also downloaded with animated backdrop on menu screen.
    AppleTV:
    Movies>Purchased (cloud)    No iTunes Extras
    Computers>iTunesLib>Movies     Main movie only
    Pretty poor show really - no legacy format support, cloud only it seems and inferior quality (static vs animated)…..I'm actually very very surprised and cannot fathom why it should be so difficult to implement unless it's a new format with better options going forward…
