How to play media to tv from mac

Hi all, this is my first time (only my third ever) on apple support communities, so please excuse my ignorancel
I have spent hours online trying to figure out how to veiw media content on my Panasonic Viera 42" hdtv from my imac , with out any real luck.
I have figured out how to watch Panasonics own content through the Viera connect feature on the tv.
The thing im having most trouble with is connecting my 27"imac to the tv to play content downloaded from the internet such as avi files, camera movies and the like.
Someone suggested a free open source set up called xbmc which i have installed but i dont know how to configure it to connect to the tv. Or am i trying to be too adventurous as a first timer and need to concentrate on a simpler option.
And finally if i do take the latter option, do i need to configure the imac to act as a server and if so how do i do that?
Thank you in advance to anybody taking the time to read this.

Hi, thanks for replying.
Im not exacly sure what year the imac is i cant seem to find it anywhere.
I bought the machine last year on apples refurbished site. Someone at Apple support suggested once that it maybe a 2010 model. In system profiler there is a thunderbolt tab in the left hand pane but it says there are no drivers loaded. Does that mean that thunderbolt is on the mac but i must install the drivers? If so, is it all plug and play after that or do i need to configure it all manually? If so coyuld you please point me in the right direction for instructions on how to do it. My tv for instance is saying that it cant find a server. As for vlc player, i use it all the time.Dont know what ide do without it !

HT201269 How do I transfer content from my old iPhone

How do I transfer content from my old iPhone to new iPhone when using someone elses computer?

Don't use someone else's computer. Create an iCloud backup of your old phone and restore to that backup when you setup your new phone.

How to play YouTube videos in HD on iPhone over cellular?

Does anyone know how to play YouTube videos using the Google YouTube app in HD on the iPhone over cellular? I'm asking because I have an iPhone 5 with a large LTE data plan, which I don't mind using a bit more data for better clearity on the videos. I know in the past people have suggested to use YouTube in the Safari broswer to view videos in HD, but I find it to be non-consistant. Anyone have a better idea how to watch YouTube videos in HD on iPhone/iPad over cellular (3G/LTE)?

Did you use iAD to create the widget? If you did... then there support group should have answers.
If you used one of the widgets in iBA - as you have had no suggestion for a fix... you will need to contact iBooks support.
The More Like This column on the right shows links to similar problems.
It would seem to be related to your use of You Tube and Vimeo content or maybe its how you put the widget content together.
Have you search the iBA help files, previous posts and the iBA tips?

How to play home movies on TV via Iphone and NAS Drive?

I have a problem playing transferred home movies on a flat screen tv through the “TV Out” feature of my Iphone 4.
Brief History:
I have captured about a TB worth of various home movie videos from VHS tape to my PC hard drive in AVI format using AVS Video Recorder. I used AVS Video Converter to convert the AVI movie files to M4V files, to play these movies on my IPhone. I then copied these M4V video files to a Western Digital “My Book Live” NAS Drive which allows me to view any video using my Iphone, via a WD app, without using Iphone internal memory. This works so far.
The problem is that I thought I could show these videos to family members through their big screen TV at their house, and by hooking my Iphone to their tv’s audio/video inputs, via cables, using TV Out and access the videos from my NAS Drive as I could when using the Iphone alone. However, the home movies do not play on the TV! After a conversation with Apple Techs I was told that using the Iphone’s “TV Out” feature to view video onto a TV, via the Iphone , only works for video that is stored on the internal memory of the Iphone itself, not for accessing 3rd party drives as my NAS.
I was told that there are ways around this like:
-    Syncing certain videos to the Iphone (to save storage space) and viewing them on TV via “TV OUT”
-    Getting an IPad (bigger screen then Iphone) and accessing the videos through the Apple Cloud
-    Using Apple TV and accessing movies via the cloud (which means I would have to bring and hook-up Apple TV to the receiving TV). Not sure about this method.
-    Something about Airplay and mirrioring???
So my question is: Is there any way to access my NAS drive (which has all videos stored) and play those videos on another household’s TV, for many people to comfortably view at once, via my Iphone? Or, is there another method?
Any advice would be appreciated.

I have a playlist called shows that has a few TV shows, movies, and podcasts. I also have the latest versions of iTunies and Apple TV. The playlist doesn't show up anywhere on the Apple TV.
Where should it be?
the playlist option will show next to where "genre" is only if the playlist contains the appropriate content for the section that you are in.
for example i have a playlist that contains all episodes of a season of King Of Queens. the playlist shows in the "my tv shows" section, but does not in "my movies", as the playlist only contains tv shows.
might be an idea not to mix content in playlists, as you won't be able to play mixed content from a playlist anyway.

How to display mixed content in Safari

I get on a business site with explore and when I search on that site explore asks if I want to see unsecure data....which I need to see. I click yes and I get the data that I have searched for. There appears to be no way to configure Safari 6 to display mixed or unsecure content. How can I get around this problem or am I stuck using ugh, Explorer?

Safari on the iPad does not have a Menu bar. What you see is what it has.
Depending on where you are coming from though you may still have a couple different options.
If you are coming from a Mac, you could ostensibly copy your bookmarks to the Safari browser on the Mac and have the bookmarks then sync through iCloud.
If you are on a Windows computer your best bet is to import your bookmarks to Internet Explorer and use the iCloud Control Panel to sync them over to the iPad.

You could also download one of the 3rd party Firefox sync Apps onto the iPad. They will sync with your Firefox browser and bring the bookmarks onto the iPad. You can then use them to open your Bookmarks on any browser on your iPad including Safari. The downside is the Bookmarks won't be inside Safari, but instead will reside in the sync App and you can open Safari from there.
For example:

using the Downloader Plugin, but can't find nothing, so is there any samples, API docs or blogs out there showing how to do this?

How to Play .wav files in Safari?

Hi:
I need a little help.
I would like Safari to play wav files instead of downloading those file to my Downloads folder. Can this be done.
Thanks,
-AstraPoint

Greetings,
I would like Safari to play wav files instead of downloading those file to my Downloads folder.
Can this be done?
Maybe. First, what is the URL for a .wav file you're trying to play in Safari? I want to test this before I say whether or not it will work.

How to play a regular mp3 stream on iPhone ?

such as an mp3 stream from: http://91.121.24.85:80/cybele.mp3
This can be easily played on iTunes on the computer. But how do we play it from the iPhone directly without using a computer ?

Clicking directly on the link you posted in Safari worked fine for me.
For apps just type "stream mp3" into the search box in the AppStore.

How to transfer Outlook content on PC to iPhone?

I figured out how to sync iTunes on my desktop computer with my phone, but that doesn't do me any good because there isn't any content in iTunes. So how do I get my Outlook data into iTunes? Contacts are the most important thing, but I'm also interested in transferring my calendar and tasks.
By the way, I have no itention of transferring my Outlook content using iCloud, at least for now. I assume (hope) it can be done without iCloud.

Thanks, ios decipher. This isn't quite working yet. Hope you or someone else can help me.
I have completed these steps:
"- connect iphone to pc
- open itunes(if it does not open automatically)
- navigate to your iPhones summary page
- select the info tab(to the right of summary)"
It's not possible to complete the next step ("- select sync contacts and sync calendars") because there is nothing to "select" under Sync Contacts or Sync Calendars. Under Sync Contacts, there is this text: "Your contacts are being synced with your iPhone over the air. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on your iPhone." The same message is under Sync Calendars.
I don't know if changing my over-the-air sync settings is the thing to do here, but at any rate it isn't possible for me to do that either: I combed through all the settings options on my phone, and didn't see anything like this.
Nor are there any sync seetings in iTunes that improve this situation.
Any ideas?

How to play spotify on wifi direct with iphone?

I used to conect my previous phone with android and played spotify with wifi direct (conected to tv wich is conected to home theater) but I have an iphone 6 now and I can conect and play photos on tv and music but I cant do it with spotify. does anyone know how can I do it?

Hi rob559,
I happened to have a digital AV adaptor and was able to reprduce the problem you mentioned regarding the video output from the Apple Podcast App.
On the Downcast App, I tested it with the digital AV adaptor and was able to have the video is in full screen on a 16:9 HDTV. Thus, I think it is worth the investment to purchase the Downcast app to have full screen video playback.
Cheers!

How to play .wav file from url in iphone.

We are using callfire API for in our iPhone application(Hybrid application build using sencha and phonegap). The concept of the app is to show the recorded calls in a list and on click of any call in the list it will play the recorded audio file(.wav format). Now the problem is that we are not able to play that file in our Application. We also tried to play that URL directly on iPhone browser but it also didn't worked.
Here is one of the URL of audio file formathttps://www.callfire.com/cloud/1/files/recording/dynamic/864c81f4a8e6a898042cb47 251ca1c85/2012/8/6065312/cid_1319779221_1.wav
When we put this audio file in our server and tried to play it our Application, it worked perfectly.
Can you please tell us what is the reason behind this?
We are using iPhone 3 with software version 6.0 for testing.

You'll have to ask the devleopers of sencha and phonegap.

How to play one song then stop on iPhone?

iTunes playlist on my computer can play one song then stop because there is the uncheck all songs feature, but apparently iPhone doesn't have the same feature.
Need to play one song then have it stop instead of going to another song in the playlist. Creating 20+ single-song playlists is inefficient.
I know there is the Play on Cue app for $1.99 but why should I have to have another app on my phone do what iTunes on my computer already does built-in (play one song then stop)?

"Creating 20+ single-song playlists is inefficient." Please read next time.
