How to make Apple TV update photos as new photos are entered into CPU?

Here's my situation -- we are having a Halloween Party this Saturday and I wanted to be able to have people sit in front of my computer and take a picture of themselves with Photo Booth. They would then drag their picture into an album (I don't care if it's MobileMe Gallery, Album, etc.). A slideshow will be going in the other room from that folder via the Apple TV. The problem is getting that slideshow to update occasionally with the new pictures as they are dropped into the folder.
Any ideas other than having to back out to the main menu each time and restarting the slide show???

you also might want to refrain from calling people "nerds". you might use it in a comical manner, but not everyone might see it that way.

  • HT1420 How to make Apple ID and iCloud the same Id?

    How to make Apple ID and iCloud ID the same after they have been created?
    iTunes keeps asking for ID and passwords that were created differently.

    You can't im afraid. I wanted to do the same and got the following from Apple:
    I am sorry, you cannot update your email address to MobileMe address as each Apple ID is unique.
    Ross, I would like to let you know that, you cannot change your Apple ID if it was at any time a .Mac or MobileMe email address, even if your subscription has ended or been canceled.
    The email address that ends in .me is already an Apple ID as well, as when you set up a MobileMe email its automatically set up as an Apple ID. So you cannot use this email address on another account. It is permanently associated with your MobileMe Apple ID.
    This article provides helpful information when choosing which Apple ID to use with iCloud:

    This page also covers topics such as moving MobileMe accounts to iCloud, managing your Apple ID, and how to get content purchased with multiple Apple IDs onto your iOS device.
    I hope this information was helpful. If you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to reply to this email and I will be more than happy to assist you further.

  • Recent Apple TV update my Apps and wording are going off the screen, why is that?

    What is the fix on thie newest Apple TV update? Apps and wording are showing off the screen!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
        1.    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
        2.    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
        3.    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
        4.    Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)
        5.    Restore the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Restore)

  • Why have all my previous "My Ratings" (stars) have been removed and Smart Albums(i.e. 5 star rating in past year) virtually destroyed in the update to the new Photos program?  Where are the "My Ratings" capabilities ?

    Upon updating to the new Photos program, all the previous "My Ratings" (1-5 stars) for photos have been removed. Why?  My "Smart Albums" using the "My Ratings", i.e. photos with a 5 star rating within the past year, have been virtually destroyed in the update.  The updates "modified" Smart
    Album deleted the "My Ratings" parameter, retained the Date parameter so now Smart Album includes every photo within the date range parameter.  Where are the "My Ratings" capabilities ?  It appears they have been removed.  If so, why ?

    Photos doesn't have true star ratings.
    However, when photos are migrated from iPhoto or Aperture to Photos, they will have keywords assigned, like "1 star" or "5 stars". You can create smart albums based on these keywords.
    You can also assign keyboard shortcuts so if you're in the keyword pane and type 1, it will assign the "1 star" keyword.

    BKBK,
    Thank you for your response. That does adequately cover the
    client-originated sessions, but still leaves the ability I am
    looking for unavailable.
    It did serve to definitively answer my most pressing
    question, however, with this statement:
    Note: ColdFusion cannot create a session if an initiator
    application uses a SendGatewayMessage method to start an
    interaction with a client, such as an SMS user. In this case, the
    sending code must keep track (for example, in a database) of the
    messages it sends and their destinations. When a response event
    arrives, it can look up the origniatorID to determine whether it
    was in response to an outgoing message.
    I will play around with the Application scope to see if there
    might be a workable solution there.

  • How can a webpage refresh automatically if some new data has entered the da

    hi,
    How can a webpage refresh automatically if some new data has entered the database.
    with thanks
    jp reddy

    There have been several discussions on related topics. HTTP/HTML is not a "push" protocol and therefore is not well suited for this type of application. I would recommend setting a reasonable refresh rate using a META tag or switching to another technology (i.e. Applets) that can provide a push environment.

  • I backed up my iPhoto library to my EHD then deleted some photo in iPhoto on my iMac to make more HD space. I want to back up iPhoto again to my EHD again but do not want it to overwrite the whole library. How can I make sure it backs up the new photos

    Ok so how can i just back up the newer photos to my iPhoto library on my EHD? If it overwrites the backed up library it will delete the older photos that I backed up and then deleted from my iMac HD.

    Do you want to back up only your photos and not your current library? Then you will not get a backup of your albums, books, calendars, ..
    A lot ofyour organizational work will not be backed up, if you only save the newer photos.
    To find the new photos create a smart album:
    From Photo's main menu bar:  File > New > Smart album
    and add a rule: Date is after ....  ; enter the date of your last backup.
    Then export the photos from this album to a folder on your backup drive.
    File > Export > Original
    But it would be much better simply to copy the iPhoto library to the external drive, after renaming the older library, so that it will not be overwritten.
    Regards
    Léonie
    You might consider to let TimeMachine do the work and keep track of changed versions.
    Use Time Machine to backup the library regularly, so you always can restore a current version aand can find older photos that have been deleted, and make occisiona snapshots of the whole library on a second backup drive.

  • How to Use Apple Software Update w/ ARD 2.2

    There must be a way - but I haven't figured it out yet - to use ARD 2.2 to control Apple Software Update on client computers. Is it simply to take control of each computer one at a time and run Software Update? If so, that doesn't simplify things much over actually going to each computer in my lab. I'm hoping there's a more automated, streamlined way to do it. Please let me know the secret - if there is one!
    Thanks!

    Send the UNIX command "softwareupdate" (Send Command As root). Here's the usage:
    softwareupdate <mode> [<args> ...]
    -l | --list List all appropriate updates
    -d | --download Download Only
    -i | --install Install
    <label> ... specific updates
    -a | --all all appropriate updates
    -r | --recommended only recommended updates
    -u | --url <url> ... from signed package URLs
