How to stream IMAC to my TV?

I just purchased Apple TV set it up. I updated iTUNEs and my Apple TV software and I am able to view my iTUNES library on my TV. However, I cannot stream from my IMAC to the Apple TV. Is there a minimum revision of IMAC needed? Or are there specific settings I need to set?.

I assume you are referring to Airplay Mirroring.
Yes, there are requirements. You need an iMac from 2011 (or later) running OSX 10.8 (or later)
There are alternatvies available like Airparrot if you cannot mirror natively.

Thanks in advance

You're going to need additional software or hardware. If you're running a Macintosh, try CamTwist. It's free and allows you to create virtual "cameras" from just about anything you can see on your computer. It's a bit clunky getting used to the interfact and how it works, however.
Hardware solutions (like scanline converters and video switchers) can get pretty expensive. So you may want to go with a piece of software that can handle on-the-fly video compositing/switching. There are two applications that come to mind right off the bat -- and lucky for you, both of them can also output to a live streaming server.
Wirecast is a popular choice, although the pricing starts around $500. It's Macintosh/Windows.
A very popular choice among gamers is XSplit (Windows only) and is a subscription-based model (you pay a small fee by the month, quarter, or year). XSplit has some very impressive compression happening under the hood, and was originally designed for gamers who wanted to share their desktop, XBOX, or PS3 adventures... all while also being able to lay over banners, PIP (picture-in-picture) of themselves, or anythhing else they wanted to clutter the screen with.
If you're running on Windows, give XSplit at shot. It can easily handle your desktop (or most anything else) as a "camera" as well as being able to lay your webcam on top of the desktop feed.

When I create a photo stream in ios6, everyone who is logged in to my iCloud account can see and edit my stream (on their iPhones only). Not just the email addressees that I sent the photo stream link to. Is that how photo stream security is meant to work

When I create a photo stream in ios6, everyone who is logged in to my iCloud account can see and edit my stream (on their iPhones only). Not just the email addressees that I sent the photo stream link to. Is that how photo stream security is meant to work? Is so it means my whole family can see any photo stream I set up. Hence no security? Can't share the pics with the wife then :(

The whole idea to an icloud account is that one user uses it and has all their devices synced together. Different users need different Apple IDs to create their own icloud accounts. Note that everyone can still use the same ID for an iTunes account (to share purchases).
To create a new icloud account, go to

How to disable iMac screen and not to put it into sleep?!!!

I would like to play a movie on my iMac but to watch it on my LCD TV. How to disable iMac screen and not to put it into sleep. PLS have in mind that ctrl+shift+ eject does not work, it makes my iMac screen go black as well as the tv screen.So far, i have red many articles concerning this subject, but no one seems to have the right answer. I simply can´t believe that apple did not think of it, as it is nothing new ....
Thanks

My brother has eight cats, so your not along. Fortunetly his go outside.
I have been talking to the people over at macforums and they had some good thoughts. One guy suggested going analog and soldering in a rocker switch on the cable connecting a hub to the computer, turn off switch turns off keyboard and mouse.
I was prepared to try that but a great idea came along. Arch, you might be interested in this too. Buy a cheap (found one locally for $20) usb kvm switch that takes one usb keyboard and mouse and connects it to two pcs/macs and only connect one of the outs to my system. There is a button to switch between the two, so when I want to disable the keyboard and mouse, I just switch it to pc2, which is not connected to anything.
Cheap and easy solution. I wish I could of figured out how to do this with software, since there would be no money if it was freeware, but I guess you cant win them all.
Thanks everyone for chiming in!

How to stream music to bluetooth?

Anyone have pointers on how to stream music from my iPhone 5 to a Scala-Rider Q2 bluetooth unit? I have paired the unit to my phone and can use it for calls but can't figure out how to access music files.

Hey Meg,
You were right on the money about A2DP. Cardo Systems informs me that my Q2 is a 'mono-only' device and thus does not have the capability of receiving stereo (A2DP) Bluetooth signals.
For the information of others who may have viewed this thread, Cardo offers the following: Q2 'Pro', Scala Rider G4 and Scala Rider G9 with A2DP capability.
One upgrade leads to another!!

How does the iMac DC 1.83 compare...

How does the iMac DC 1.83 compare to the iMac G5 2.1?
In real world speed.
In real world features. ie: video frame rate, etc...
Any REAL hardware problems pop up yet.
Things like that.
I an most likely to get one soon, and would like to know.
Thanks
-Apple //GS

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I hope that others reply also so we can see how this new computer is next to the two G5 versions it is replacing in a real world way.
I am happy that the DC 1.83 is no sloth when going toe to toe with the G5 version.
Did you port over your software from the older system, and run the programs to see how things ran, or freash install them all?
Again, thanks

Can someone tell me how to stream live video?

Can someone tell me how to stream live video to my ipad?

Someone could give you better and more exact information but you didn't include the model number of your computer. But I can give you a pretty generic answer. At the top of this webpage you should see Product Support. Click on Laptops and then select which model of Toshiba computer you own, ie Satellite, Tecra, etc. Finally type in the model number of your computer. Select the exact model number and click the red Go button to the right. Click the Downloads tab and look thru the different drivers for this computer. Make sure that the new video driver is newer and has a higher version number than your current video driver. If it does, click the Download button, click the Run button and let it do the installation. Afterwards, reboot the computer so that the latest drivers are fully installed. Try again with that game.

How to override iMac password?

how to override iMac password?

This discussion is for computer built before 2006. The same solution probably applies to newer computers.
You can change the password on an account. ( Do you know Unix. You are in a Unix single user console. ) The setup commands you need should be listed on the screen. For Mac OS 10.4.11, the commands are:
# Type the follow two instructions to access the startup disk in read/write.
# check out the filesystem.
# ( in case of partial success repeat this command until errors go away. )
/sbin/fsck -fy
# Gain read / write access to your startup drive
/sbin/mount -uw /
->Start up some utility processes that are needed.
sh /etc/rc
->You will probably need to press the return key once the system stops typing.
->To find out the users on the system type, use the ls command. The l is a lower case L:
ls /Users
->One of these accounts will be the administrator.
->Pick one of the users which I'll call a-user-name and type it in this command:
passwd a-user-name
->and enter the new user password. You need six characters.
->You will need to enter your password twice. Your typing will not show up on the screen just
-> press enter when you complete the typing.
->For cryptic information on these commands try:
man ls
man passwd
The root account isn't enabled by default. I am not sure if changing the password on root will enable it.

You show a preview and use loadMovie() to load a big file.
You can
create a preloader (progress bar) showing how much part is
loaded,
while user sees the small image. When you achieve 100% tou
show that
big image. What's more?
> Can any one tell me how to stream the images in flash.
What are you talking about is not a "streaming", but
"progressive
download". Images "streaming" is impossible.
