How Do I stream Content?

I can't figure it out. I seem to only be able to sync. Where do I do set up to stream on ATV?

The library which syncs by default also streams any content not on your AppleTV eg due to lbrary size being larger than AppleTV capacity.
If the computer/iTunes are off then AppleTv only shows locally stored media. When on, this together with additional streamed contenet are shown as a merged list.
In addition to the single sync library you are allowed to register up to 5 streaming only libraries which appear as Shared libraries under the relevant media category rather than merging with the 'My ....' media list.
Previously you used to have a Sources option to select 'AppleTV' (only content synced to it) or other 'sources' that were libraries capable of being streamed (sync one selectable to stream ALL content). Sources was less confusing IMO.

  • Satellite L450 - How to view streamed content on an old TV?

    Hi
    Wondering if anyone can help. I have a Satellite L4500-13x and would like to know if it is possible to view streamed content on an old TV from my laptop eg YouTube. My TV has only got an RCA input.
    I have an external monitor port on laptop and dont know if I can use that with some kind of adapter. Or do I need an HDMI to RCA convertor from the laptops HDMI output port.

    Hi buddy,
    Normally its no problem to use an older TV as external monitor. You probably need an adapter, VGA to RCA but this is a common part and usually always been used with such older TVs they dont have a HDMI port.
    On eBay and other places you can purchase such VGA to RCA adapter. Thats everything what you need for this connection.
    After this you can switch between monitors using FN+F5 key combination. :)

  • How do I stream content from my Lucid3 to the TV?

    I was told that streaming from my phone is as easy as plug-n-play, no luck so far. Any help?

    I have an LG G2. I also have a Samsung Smart TV that supports DLNA. I can run a program like iMediaShare from the Playstore, and I can send video and pictures from my phone to the TV. I can also load this program onto an HP Touchpad running Android and do the same.
    My TV also has a YouTube app which will let me pair with other wireless devices like my phone or my HP Touchpad, and select and play YouTube videos to watch on my TV.
    With KitKat, your phone and my phone should have Miracast (Settings | Share and connect) which you can enable. My TV is not Miracast ready (I would have to purchase a dongle that would attach to an HDMI port on the side or back of the TV). Then I guess, I could stream content (compatible with Miracast) to the TV. If your TV already has it, you wouldn't need a dongle... but I don't think you'd be able to stream any content with Miracast. You'd have to research it more.
    There may be other options depending on your TV. Hopefully, this will get you started.

  • HT201335 How do I stream content from OOYALA streaming on my MAC or Macbook Pro to my Apple TV?

    My wife subscribed to a live video stream of the Miss CA pageant for tomorrow night on OOYALA (her friends are all coming over to watch).  How do I play this on our TV through Apple TV when we are streaming from the Internet to her Mac.  It does not go through iTunes as far as I know.  Our computers are set for sharing and we have an Apple WIFI home network.

    Hi Michael Gorsline1,
    I understand that you turned off iCloud on your Mac and subsequently lost all of your contacts, notes, and reminders. If your information, remains on iCloud.com, you can merge that information back onto your Mac by signing back into iCloud and selecting the services you would like to sync.

  • How do I stream Mac OS X Lion content on my Apple TV (e.g. streams from browser with video and audio)

    Hey folks,
    I got a new Apple TV 3rd generation. Its fine with my ipad, but I wanna stream content from flash based websites via my MacBook(2007) with OS X Lion.
    Do you have any Idea how to do it? I know e.g. AirParrot, but as far as I know with AirParrot I will not be able to stream the SOUND to my TV, it will only mirror my screen or the Browser Window.
    cheers

    Update: I now bought a Airport Extreme which I connected to the Easybox 803 , switched off the easybox WLAN and use the APE in "bridge" mode to do the WLAN work. This works perfectly, all MAC and iOS devices Airplay well and also my brother printer is now acknowledged by the system

  • How to stream content from Mac or Ipad to ATV  Gen 1

    I have an unlocked ATV Gen 1 ( just bought 2nd hand ) and I want to stream content from either my MacBookAir or my ( Jailbroken ) Ipad 2 to the ATV which is connected to my nice big TV.
    I can view all the integral stuff in ATV and also view/listen to movies/music in Itunes.
    I really want to view BBC TV which is streaming on my MBA or Ipad onto the ATV.
    How can I achieve this?
    I've dabbled with Airshare ( a Cydia app ) on the Ipad but that doesn't seem to work.
    Of course, I can run a HDMI cable directly from the MBA/Ipad to the ordinary TV and throw away the ATV but I want to do it wirelessly.
    Surely this is achievable with ATV?
    Thx,

    Mr Churchill, I assume that you are talking about "live broadcasts" when  you assert that I can't stream 'anything'?
    Of course, I can 'stream' videos/music/podcasts/photos which are in my Itunes library of any of my devices to the ATV .
    I'm pretty sure that I have read postings where content displayed on an IOS device can be mirrored in Audio/VDO to the ATV.
    If this only realates to content contained within ITunes then confirmation will be regarded as the correct answer ( if not the one I wanted ).
    Can someone pls assist

  • How to stream content from Macbook Pro to Samsung SmartTV

    How can I view photos from iPhoto on my Macbook Pro on my Samsung SmartTV?  Samsung offers software only for PCs.

    If you have satellite/cable TV and your box has an ethernet port and you have a DVR it's also possible to stream content from your Mac to a tv.

  • How do I stream iTunes content to my home theatre using any combination of a MacBook Pro, an iPhone 4s, and a PS3 using only a LOCAL network?

    I have found many solutions to this problem assuming home internet access, but I only have access to the internet via my iPhone. I do not want online capability in my PS3. All I want to be able to do is control iTunes on my MacBook, and hear/view the content on my home theatre. I would prefer to use my iPhone as the remote for iTunes, and do not want to add the monthly cost of home internet to this equation. I do not require access to anything on my MacBook except iTunes in this application. I would prefer to use iTunes and stream to my home theatre, as opposed to setting up my MacBook as a media server and using the PS3 interface. Is this possible? Can I accomplish this goal using a local network? Can I create a wifi network on my MacBook to do this, or do I need a router? I am looking to spend as little as possible on this project, as I plan on moving to a more urban area soon, and will be buying Apple TV and subscribing to home internet service when this happens.

    Get an AirPort Express.  It has an audio out which you can connect to the line-in on your home theatre system.  All the other devices will talk to the AirPort Express and stream content to it via wi-fi.

  • How to stream content from my PC to the Experia Z tablet?

    Just picked up the tablet today and I'm trying to figure out if I can stream content (music or movies) from my PC to the Tablet..
    I enabled media sharing in the settings but it's not detecting my Media servers like Windows media server or PS3 Media server.  Any help would be appreciated. 

    There are other applications such as ES File explorer that would allow you not just stream media content but browse all files including pdf's etc.

  • How can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.

    how can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.
    I have LCD projector on one wall and connected ATV to it via HDMI.
    Speakers on the other wall and connected to APXpress.

    To be honest the times we've wanted to have music from more than one set of speakers, I've usually used my mac's iTunes library and controlled it either from the mac or from my phone, since they're not really the times we have any TV on anyway. I've tested AirTunes from the Apple TV but can't recall whether it worked with content from a streaming library.
    Now I've got something to do.

  • How do I stream movies to Apple TV?

    I just got a aTV 1stgen from a friend and started to sync it with some of our movies, but I don't want to have to wait for everything to sync to it (not sure everything would fit).  I thought you could stream content from your computer too.  However, anything that isn't synced doesn't show up.  I looked through the manuel and the forums and I cannot find an answer.  How do I get this to work?

    odd my movies showed up when I started the sync
    and when I played them they would stream until they were on the hd on the atv
    but atv don't play that many formats of video so if you got material in your itunes
    it can't play it will never be able to do so even when the sync is don

  • How do I get content from my iPad to show up on the tv screen using Apple TV without going thru iTunes?

    How can I get content from my iPad and my air book to show up on the tv screen using Apple TV, without going thru iTunes?

    You will need to use AirPlay to see that.
    Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
    When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.
