How do you hook up wireless headphones so you can listen to Apple TV and satellite

Currently I have a direct tv satellite receiver and an Apple TV box.  I'm trying to hook up sony wireless headphones so I can hear both of them.  I watch Netflix on the Apple TV and normal TV viewing on satellite.  I'd like to be able to toggle between the two, and for the life of I cannot figure it out how to wire it up.  I have no issues getting them to work on the satellite receiver, but it's a no go for the Apple TV.
I have two audio ports on the back of the TV (one red and one white - doesn't specify in or out) and one optical port.
I also have a port a 3.5mm jack could go into and it says "services"

  • How do i hook up Wireless headphones to ipod?

    I just recently bought some wireless headphones (B-GO2 Bluetooth stereo active headset) but my ipod touch will not read them.  What do i need to do?

    Does the headset support either the A2DP or Hand Free Profile (HFP) and are supported by the iPod?

  • How do I connect Sony wireless headphone

    How do I connect Sony wireless headphones model rf970 to my ipad?

    By the looks of it they are not Bluetooth wireless headphones. You will have to plug the iPad into the base station's audio input jack.

  • I want to give my old iPhone 4 to my grandson to use like an iPod Touch. Wifi only. How do I deactivate my info..so he can buy his own apps. and not have the cloud pushing all of my data to the old phone?

    Just turning off Cloud will not prevent him from turning it back on.
    Rignt now, if he uses the App store, iTunes thinks it's talking to me.

    First, turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account, while your sim is still in the phone. Then: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. Give it to your grandson & he gat then set it up as he wants.
    Important your turn iMessage & FaceTime off to disassociate the phone from your Apple ID. Apple "claims" to have fixed this with iOS 6.0, but until I can absolutely confirm such, I still recommend you turn all of that stuff off first.

  • How Do I Setup a Wireless Network in my home for 3 Mac's and 2 PC's

    Ok..... I live with 5 people and we all have computers. I'm looking to setup a Wireless Network in our house that would allow all of us to access the Internet from our various rooms. Currently we have 3 MAC (a G5 Desktop, a regular Desktop, and a Powergook G4 with airport extreme), and 2 Window's based PC Laptops. So far everyone is using DSL, with the exception of myself. I sit in the back yard accessing the neighbors wireless network. That ***** and I feel like I'm stealing.
    How would I go about setting up a Wireless network for all of these computers, and what equipment would I need to accomplish this?
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    First thing you need is a wireless router. You mentioned Airport Extreme---not sure if you are speaking about the card in the PB, or an actual router. Bottom line is that you need a wireless router. Airports will work with Windows, and Netgear is another good option as they are Mac friendly. Then, any computers that don't have wireless card will need to have one--unless you connect them directly with an ethernet cable. Get the IP addresses of all of the computers on the network. In Windows, go to Start-My Network Places-View Network Connections, then highlight the LAN that is displayed. With it highlighted, go to the "details" window and open the drop down menu if it is not open already. Write down the IP address. Then, go to the Macs you have, click on Finder--Go--Connect to server. Type in the IP address with smb:// in front and / at the end--will look something like this smb://192.xxx.x.xx/ Then select connect. Make sure you know the username and passwords of the computers as it will ask for these. To share the files from the Mac to the Windows, just follow these directions: You can set up your Mac so that you can share files with Windows computer users.
    To allow Windows users to connect to your computer, you need to turn on Windows Sharing. When you turn on Windows Sharing, Mac OS X uses the Samba server software to provide SMB/CIFS file services.
    You also need to give the Windows users the network address of your computer, and a user name and password of a user account on your computer.
    Open System Preferences and click Sharing and, if necessary, click Services.
    Select Windows Sharing in the list, then click Start.
    Click Accounts and select the name of the user account that will share files. Enter the password for that user.
    Look below the services list for your computer's network address. Give this address to Windows users.
    You can provide users with the user name and password of any account on your computer. To help keep your computer secure, you may want to create a special account for Windows users in Accounts preferences.
    Because passwords of the user accounts for Windows are stored insecurely, turn off the account when it is not being used. Before you turn off Windows Sharing, turn off all the accounts you enabled. Otherwise, the passwords are still stored insecurely.
    If you want to use a user account that existed before you installed Mac OS X Panther, you may need to reset the password for the account using Accounts preferences.
    Any of this info can also be found in the help files in the Finder. Hope this helps.

  • I am considering using I Pad for a presentation and want to use it in a wireless environment and though a projector not a TV monitor. Can I use Apple TV and apple wireless base,

    I am considering using I PAD for a presentation using a projector.  How can this be done.  will Apple TV connect to a projector and if so does the projector have to have an HDMI slot or is there some sort of adapter to convert VGA slot so it connects with Apple TV. I also want to do it wirelessly so does the Apple wireless device work for this purpose, is so what do I need to connect that to the Apple TV  and to projector.  So, ideally I want to be able to operate the IPAD without it being connected to cables and have the image procted on screen using a projector which only has the VGA slot not an HDMI slot. any suggestions will be appreciated.

    It can use Apple Tv, but will require a wireless network as well. The Apple TV has an HDMI output, and depending on the projector it may connect directly to it through HDMI.
    There are adpaters out there that will convert from HDMI to several other types such as VGA or Composite oir RGB. It would not be directly an Apple product as it would work with the HDMI cable rather than the apple TV or iPad directly.
    Basically your setup should be:
    iPad  -> Wifi Network -> Apple TV-- HDMI Cable-->Adapter---->Projector
    If the iPad is iPad 2 or above you can mirror the entire display to the projector through the apple Tv.
    The Adapter would be something like this for instance:

    Or this:
    http://www.amazon.com/ViewHD-Component-Converter-Support-Surround/dp/B004F9XVBC
    With that said there are projectors that can be used wirelessly from the ipad without the need for Apple Tv or any adapter.
    Epson makes one and a proprietary App to use it.

  • HT4061 iPad stolen - how do I wipe personal text messages out? Synced with my apple account and cell number but not showing in iCloud.

    My iPad was stolen - I just synced it with my cellphone number and updated to the new OS the day before it's stolen. Why is the iPad not showing up in my iCloud account so that I can locate it and wipe the data?
    I know that the iPad is likely still full of my text messages because I tried deleting them on my phone thinking it would also delete them from the iPad. Instead, the iPad re-populated all if the text messages I deleted back in to my iPhone.
    Help! I don't want these people having my personal text messages. How can I wipe an iPad/break the sync with my phone when I don't have the iPad anymore?

    You won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

  • How do i change my icloud name i already made a new apple id and i want to switch it to my new apple id? I'm afriad if i delete my account i will loose all my pictures..

    how do i change my icloud email? I already made a new apple id and i want to switch it to my new apple id? I'm afriad if i delete my account i have now I will loose all my pictures and I want to keep them

    To change the iCloud ID on your devices, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.  Deleting the account only deletes the account and any synced data from your device, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts, your data will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.  However if you are changing to a new account, be sure to choose Keep on My iPhone (iPad) when prompted, then choose Merge to upload your data to the new account when you turn on iCloud syncing again.
    Prior to deleting the account, if you have an photo stream photos that you want to keep, save them to your camera roll by tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • How can i use apple tv and iTunes movies with component video cables for an older receiver and projector?

    i have an older yamaha receiver and projector both without hdmi inputs but component video instead. I would like to get apple tv and start renting movies through iTunes but apple tv only supports hdmi and ive read that iTunes has codes to prevent the use ot analog cables with movies. Is there a way to adapt hdmi to component video for both apple tv and iTunes easily?

    Yes, HDMI is the only supported method. Also, with converters you will run into issues with HDCP (which will prevent you from streaming DRM content from iTunes etc) as well as resolution.
