How to connect apple TV when im in hotel without giving my mac address

i got my apple tv with me cause i live in hotel but the only way to connected to internet if I give them my mac address therefore if i give my mac address to customer service wont they be able to access all my info and my mobile when connected or pictures and video

Hotel networks require authentication via webpage, there is no browser on Apple TV so it won't be possible to connect this way. The only way will be to give the mac address, it would be for connecting to the Apple TV. No info will be accessed.

  • How to connect Apple TV when I have run out of HDMI Ports?

    I have a Sony Bravia TV with 3 HDMI Ports - in those I have connected:
    - Sony Home Theater Surround Sound
    - Playstation
    - Sky Digital TV HD Box
    Is there a way to connect Apple TV without disconnecting any of the above? (and without buying a new TV with 4 HDMI ports!)

    lkrupp is correct, the only soution is to add what's called an HDMI switch to your setup.  The HDMI switch normally has 2, 4, 6, or 8 HDMI inputs and one output.  The output goes to your display.  You then select which input you want to choose.In your case, you can do one of two things:
    Connect all your sources to the HDMI switch.  You then select sources via the HDMI switch and you no longer need to change HDMI inputs on your TV.
    Disconnect one of the HDMI sources you have (let's say it's the Playstation) and plug both the Playstation and the APPLE TV into the switch.  In this setup you need to change the input on both the TV and the HDMI switcher.
    The simplest setup in your case is to buy a 4 or 8 port HDMI switch and put all your devices on the switch.  If you are looking for inexpensive HDMI switches, you need to look at Monoprice.  The stuff is all manufactured overseas and can be hit or miss but it's the cheapest that you'll find.  If you feel like you need some guidance and help, then try www.hdtvsupply.com.  They have a good selection and great support.

  • How to connect apple tv when the hdmi port on my tv is connected to the hdmi modem

    I just got at&t uverse tv service.  The modem is connected to the hdmi port on my tv.  I bought a 4 in 1 out hdmi connector box, but don't know if this will work.  I've tried plugging the apple tv into one of the in ports, but I can't get it to work.  I've tried plugging both the modem and the tv into the out box and other components into the in ports, but it hasn't worked.
    Has anyone ever run into this problem where the tv hdmi port is used and apple tv requires an hdmi port?
    thanks,
    Joan

    I use this device as my 4 splitter and i get connection all devices working then after a few hours i get an error. can i get some direction on how to place each device on this one splitter? the Uverse box and TV only has one HDMI plugs, I put the TV HDMI from TV input to splitter Output, then I put Uverse cable in port 1 on the splitter, then appletv in port3.

  • How to connect Apple TV with AT&T Uverse

    Need help pls.  Not sure how to connect Apple TV2 to AT&T Uverse.  I know I need to connect one cable to my wireless router, and another cable from the HDMI port to my TV.  That part is clear.  But my Uverse router is in an upstairs closet, and my TV is downstairs in the living room - too far apart to connect cables to both devices from my ATV2.   Do I need to somehow put a bridge router next to my TV, so that I can connect my ATV2 to both my bridge router and to my TV?  Thank you

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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.

  • How to connect Apple TV to ipad2 with air play

    Hi...how to connect Apple TV to ipad2 with AirPlay

    Hi. Your Apple TV should be connected to the TV (I'm using HDMI cables) and connected to the internet via a wireless or ethernet connection.
    The best way to test AirPlay is to play a movie trailer from the iTunes store. When you play a trailer you will see the AirPlay symbol at the bottom of the screen. Click on it and it will show your AirPlay devices - in your case the Apple TV. Select it an your video and sound will come out of your TV.
    I hope this helps. Google the AirPlay symbol. I tried to paste it into this message with no success.

    Hi pjerl,
    Depending on when you originally set up your Apple ID, you may have @mac.com, @me.com, and @icloud.com email addresses associated with your account, but all mail sent to those addresses should still come in to the same iCloud account (you can test this to make sure by sending yourself emails at those addresses). You may find the following articles helpful:

    How to connect my Iridium 9555 to a USB connector on the Mac OS 10.7.3?
    i can not create a new network configuration via USB interface on 10.7.3.

    Doesn't look like they've updated their driver in a while.  October 15 - 2010.
    Typically old drivers and 10.7 don't get along so well.  Short answer, unless you know how to write a driver, you might be outa luck. 
    Call their support line and see what they say.

  • I have just bought a Humax PVR and Humax W-Lan dongle to connect to my Airport Extreme. I have put the mac address into the AE. The installation screen is picking up my network name no problem but it won't connect to the internet. Can anyone help please?

    I have just bought a Humax 7500T PVR and a Humax W-Lan dongle to connect to my Airport Extreme.
    I have put the mac address into the AE. The installation screen on my TV is picking up the network name but once appied it won't connect to the internet.
    I've a few other things connected to the AE such as computers, ipad, itouch, etc, and have never had a problem connecting these once I've entered the mac address into the AE. Can anyone help me with this please?

    have you made sure that the network setting in the system preferences is set up to use dhcp? if not i would try changing it so that it shows that it is getting its address by dhcp

    How do I connect apple tv 2 to pioneer pdp.s35 tv? I connected to one of my pioneer receiver's hdmi ports but when I cycle through the inputs I can't find apple tv.  Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I don't have or indeed know anything about your receiver, but unless the Apple TV can see an active device and connect via HDMI it won't turn on. You will need to set your receiver to use the correct input and then turn on the Apple TV.

  • How to connect Apple TV 2 to my Library?

    When I select "Computer" in Apple TV 2 to show my Library, the Library only shows up if iTunes is running on my iMac.  Is this normal? I couldn't find anything in the Setup Guide about this. I have Home sharing enabled and the Apple TV is connected to my home network OK.
    Also I created a slide show with sorted photos and music in my iPhoto Library which is listed under the category "Slideshows" in the iPhoto left side bar. In Apple TV when I select Photos, this slide show comes up under the heading Albums on the Apple TV just like any other album. When I play it it plays the photos in original order without music and the title I added to the first slide. Can someone tell me if Apple TV does allow playback of Slide Shows from iPhoto. Is there another way to play ti back?

    With respect I'm not sure why you'd expect to be able to see and play content that is in iTunes when iTunes isn't running.
    Slideshows created in iPhoto are available as slideshows on the Apple TV, but only in the sense of the photos they contain, it will not play titles, transitions or music you have added in iPhoto, but you can add transitions and music from your Apple TV slideshow settings.
    If you want to play slideshows as you have created them in iPhoto, export them as a movie and import them into iTunes.

  • How to connect Apple TV to wi-Fi at a Marriott hotel

    Traveling with my new Apple TV, the setup process hangs up on "acquiring the time and date" when attempting to tie it in to the Marriott Hotel's AT&T wi-Fi network. It appears to get an IP address, but when logging in with my iPhone there's always a web page that pops up to "confirm" access. Apparently the Apple TV can't handle this. Is there a work-around?

    Three solutions to using AppleTV using hotel Wifi:
    1.  As was mentioned, contact IT help desk and ask them to register the MAC address of your AppleTV.
    2.  Temporarily change the MAC address of your laptop to the MAC address of your AppleTV.  Then login to hotel WiFi using your laptop.  Then disconnect laptop from hotel WiFi and boot up your AppleTV.  Hotel WiFi will now think your AppleTV is the laptop for which you purchased/registered WiFi service.
    3.  Purchase an inexpensive ($94) WAN-as-LAN device such as the PepLink PepWave Surf-On-the-Go portable router, which will allow you to login to the hotel WiFi on your laptop, then share that WiFi with an infinite number of other wireless devices.
    YYou could also just hook up your laptop to hotel Ethernet, then share it wirelesslly with your AppleTV.  However, wired (Ethernet) connections seems to be harder and harder to find at hotels nowadays....
