How do I play music or photos from my Mac to my TV?

Hi All,
I just bought a new Mac 10.6.4. How do I play my iTunes library or iPhotos that are stored locally on my Mac through my TV? I have a LG flat screen with a LG blu ray WiFi player. I have all three sharing the same wireless network. I'm able to access Pandora, NetFlix, etc. via the LG Wifi player but can't seem to find out how to connect files from the Mac.
Is AppleTV my only option? Is there a way to enable my Mac to connect and share files w/the LG?
Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, Apple TV would be the only option (wirelessly) other than directly hooking up your Mac to your TV (and using the TV as a second monitor so to speak); if you get the Apple TV, you will also need a wireless network (router, such as Airport Extreme).

  • How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read below that you can't. Really? Is that correct?

    How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read that you can't. Really? Is that true?

    You can delete photo stream photos from iCloud by just deleting them on your iPod.  My photo stream photos are automatically deleted from iCloud after 30 days anyway.  Just so you are aware, deleting photo stream photos doesn't free up any space in your account as they don't use your personal iCloud account storage.
    You can't delete music from iCloud because the music isn't stored in your account; it's stored in the iTunes store.  What you are seeing are links to your previously purchased music in the iTuens store, allowing you to redownload them if you want to.  You can't remove anything from your list of previous purchases.  If you don't want to see these "iTunes in the Cloud" purchases in your song list, go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and turn off Music under Show All.  LIke photo stream photos, this music doesn't use any of your personal iCloud account storage.

  • How do I transfer music and photos from my iPhone 4s to my iPad

    HHow do I transfer music and photos from my iPhone 4s to my ipad

    You cannot directly transfer anything from an iPhone to an iPad. If your iPad is signed onto the same Apple ID as your iPhone in Settings>iTunes & App Store, then it has access to the same Music library as your phone. Click on the More tab in the iTunes App on your iPad, and then on Purchased, Not on this iPad to see all of the music available to download to the iPad. You can also set the "Automatic Downloads" option to ON in Settings>iTunes & App Store and going forward, any music you purchase on the iPhone or via iTunes on a computer will automatically download to your iPad. Set the same setting on the iPhone to have it do the same.
    As for photos. If both the iPhone and iPad are signed onto the same iCloud ID in Settings>iCloud, then turn on Photo Stream on both the iPad and iPhone to share Photo Stream photos between the two devices. Photos on your Camera Roll that are no longer on Photo Stream, or photos in other Photo Albums would have to be sync'd to the iPad via iTunes on the computer you sync with (assuming you have imported your photos to that computer).

  • How can I transfer music and iTunes from my mac to my iPhone?

    I have a macbook air and need to transfer some of my music and itunes from my mac to my newly updates iphone4. Previously I used to drag what I wanted from my itunes to my phone but now it doesn't work. Any ideas?

    First step, of course, is to plug your iPhone into your Macbooks Air. Then, you need to set up syncing how you want it in iTunes (on the MBA). If you want to be able to drag and drop music, select "manually manage music" on the Summary pane in iTunes.

    You can copy them via your computer's iTunes - you can't connect an iPad to iPod for direct transfer, though if you iOS 5 set up on both devices and iCloud enabled you might be able to re-download some of your iTunes purchased music on the other device.

  • How do you play music in itunes from an external drive?

    if the library and itunes folder are on the external drive, how do you play the songs from there through a laptop? I have gotten that dreaded "original file not found" message over and over again. Thanks.

    Hold down the Shift key while launching iTunes. You'll be given a dialog box where you can select the iTunes library you want to use. Navigate to and select the iTunes folder in it's new location.

  • How do I transfer music and photos from my Power Mac G5 to my new iMac. Have an old FireWire but it does not fit the new iMac

    I am trying to transfer photos, music, etc from my Power Mac G5 to my new iMac. The Power Mac is too old for the migration assistant to help. I have an old Firewire but it does not fit the new iMac. Any suggestions? If a Firewire is the best option which one do I need? Thanks.

    You need a Firewire 800 to 400 adapter or cable or a external USB 2/3 drive (self powered) it can default to the old USB the G5 uses 1 or 2.

  • How can i transfer music and photos from my ibook g4 to my new mac mini?

    the g4 has a firewire 400 and the mini is firewire 800.  IS there 400 to 800 firewire or a male-male usb2 cable out there?  I've tried moving files to my external drive and then moving to the mini but the photos move over as one event. The music moves fine but the 2 step process is slow and tedious.  Is there an easier way?

    Hello,
    Firewire cables with a Firewire 800 connector on one end and a Firewire 400 connector on the other end are common.  For instance, the Belkin 6'/1.8m FireWire 800/400 Cable.

  • HT1329 Is there any way to get music and photos from a mac formatted iPod classic to a windows computer if you do not have a mac computer?

    I HAD a mac and lets just say it got destroyed. My only hope of getting my music and baby pics back is if I can get my Mac formatted iPod Classic to up load onto my Toshiba Windows7 laptop. Is there any way of doing this or is all hope lost?

  • How do I play an AVI movie from my mac to my tv?

    OK; I got a flatscreen + Apple TV. Got a movie on my laptop which I want to watch. But I am only 10.6.8 for good reason.
    Is it a simple matter of watching it and mirroring it to the flatscreen? It looked simple, but took hours to do, well, I don't know what, but there was a thermometer so it must have been important work. Appeared to be copying it to Apple TV but I'm not sure of that.
    I got to the point of seeing a black screen with a timeline across the bottom... but the spooled portion of that timeline never really moved and so the progress indicator never moved.
    So, I gave up and put the movie on another laptop with later system. 10.8.5. It has a Mirroring popup in the displays control panel with looked much simpler. But it couldn't play an AVI file... so I downloaded the recommended plug ins... but still couldn't play it.  What else can I add?

  • How do I download my music and photos from existing iPad to new iphone

    How do I download music and photos from existing iPad to new iphone

    Perform a backup to iTunes from the old device and then a restore to the new device, use ITunes to do this.  BTW, always sync photos to a computer to store them safely (use iPhoto on a mac or to a designated folder on a PC).  Never trust an iOS device to keep photos without having them synced to a computer.

  • I have a new iMac - how do file share my music and photos from my old mac to my new mac?

    I want to transfer my music and photos from one Mac to another - but I don't want to transfer anything else - what is the best way to do this?
    Thanks

    the simplest way would be to connect the two Macs with a firewire cable, boot the source Mac in Target Disk Mode, and copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder) from /users//music on the source to /users//music on the target (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).
    do the same with your iPhoto library. see this support article for more information (except, you won't have to option-launch iPhoto)
