How to use ATV2 with iTunes, DAC and Apple remote

Hello,
I play my iTunes library through a Wadia i170 dock connected to a Cambridge Audio DacMagic running through a Marantz AV preamp. I bought an ATV2 and I would like to control the music with an iPad using the Apple Remote app. My ATV is connected to the Marantz via HDMI and i have another HDMI cable running to the TV. Is it possible to do this?
Thanks!

If you enable Home Sharing in itunes, on iPad and AppleTV then Remote app will allow you to browse itunes content from the iTunes library and play it back on AppleTV using Airplay. Alternatively the Remote app can control the AppleTV interface directly with iAppleTV requesting/pulling content from itunes as opposed to Airplay sending/pusihing content to AppleTV to play.
Not sure where the Wadia dock comes into this.
Do you dock the iPad with it?
I'd have thought you'd be wanting to hook up the AppleTV optical out to the DacMagic if it supports Toslink or use HDMI or optical direct to the AV amp.
Are you trying to run the system 'headless' with TV off when playing audio - if so, recent software has messed things up and not certain if fixed in that absence of an active HDMI connection can disable audio out over optical.

How do I find what itunes account and apple id I used years ago when I got my ipod?

How do I merge my old ipod with my current itunes library. I'm not sure of my previous itunes or apple id..

iPods (except for the iOS-based iPod touch) are not directly associated with an Apple ID. The only way your Apple ID may comes into play is if you have songs on the iPod that were purchased from iTunes Store (using your Apple ID), and you want to transfer those purchased songs (not other songs) from the iPod into your current iTunes library.
If your goal is to transfer all song files from the iPod to your computer, you cannot do that (by design) using iTunes (except for songs that you purchased from the iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like "iPod transfer," you should get some links. (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to your current iTunes library. If you have songs purchased from the iTunes Store, and they are older purchases from the early days of the iTunes Store (when songs were copy protected), you may need to authorize your computer for the Apple ID used to make the purchases. Otherwise, those songs will not play or sync. Please post back if this is the case...

Learn how to use Powershell with AD, Exchange and Excel

Hi.
I want to learn how to script in Powershell to make my life easier at work.
Now, I'm creating Distribution Lists with cmdlets, and other simple moves, but I'd like understand and use scripts with Excel to make it easier in AD and Exchange.
Can anyone help me find out where I can learn Powershell with those tools? I've searched google and youtube, and bought books, but I'd like to learn especially about AD and Exchange through Excel.
I also have another question, I'm trying to collect the telephonenumbers in one OU in AD, and found this cmdlet:
Get-AdUser -Filter * -Properties OfficePhone | FT OfficePhone,UserPrincipalName
I lined ut the OU path before -Filter, and used * -Properties Telephones Mobile to find the phonenumber in Properties-Telephones-Mobile in Active Directory. But I'm obviously doing something wrong.
Could anyone please help me?

Hi Wezcomp,
first of all, you can use Get-Help to learn how to use Cmdlets, by asking them what it is they do:
Get-Help Get-ADUser -Detailed
By Adding the -Detailed Parameter, it will explain each Parameter of Get-ADUser and what it does. Then it will show you examples on how to use the cmdlet. Very useful tool,
Get-Help, learning to use it fully ought to be your first step, as this unlocks your access all other aspects of PowerShell. With that tool in hand, you could theoretically do the rest fully autodidactically (would be frustrating though, since you'd
like to be able to do something specific right now. Don't worry, we'll gladly help anyone truly trying to learn.).
There are lots of tutorials out there that can be useful in a general way (I added my own here). But regarding Excel:
As Fausto said, CSVs are the simple most way to do this. I'd advice against delving too deep into Excel manipulation right now (lots of frustration, little immediate rewards), Csv is your friend. Notable Commands:
Import-Csv
Export-Csv
For example, if you want to create a csv list with user data in it, using your previous example, you can do this:
Get-ADUser -Filter "*" -Properties OfficePhone | Export-Csv "C:\example\users.csv" -NoTypeInformation
By the way: FT (Format-Table) is a treacherous command: It displays objects to the console, but it is a dead end where data is concerned! Only use it when you want to check something quick on the console (like whether you got the right data), before
continuing on without using a Format command.
Cheers,
Fred

How to use lightroom with desktop PC and mobile with MacBook Pro ?hav

At home I have a desktop PC with all my lr files stored on NAS drive I want to be able to access and edit on macbook when away from home.
1 Is it possible or do I need a Mac pc or change laptop to windows based ?
2 do I use remote access to NAS or use previews and sync catalogue ?

I use a similar setup, with a Windows desktop PC and a MacBook Pro. My photos are on an external drive connected to the Windows machine, and I sync the catalog and smart previews using Dropbox.

Problem with ipod dock and apple remote

I have a problem with my apple remote and my 5th gen ipod on a dock. I set it up and plug it into a TV, yet when i get into a music video playlist- it will only play 4 songs (the same ones) and then go back to the song selection screen. The same thing happens in the movie "tab" as well.
Any ideas?

btabz,
Thanks for your response. No the iPod doesn't respond at all--the volume display doesn't come up or change.
When I press the play/pause or either skip forward or back on the remote, the iPod, while on the dock, lights up and responds to the command as it should. But when I press volume up or down on the remote the iPod does not respond at all.
According to Apple's store info on the remote, the volume up/down controls should work. I am wondering if maybe it doesn't work with the 3Gs for some reason. But if that is the case, Apple should indicate that. It is kind of frustrating to not be able to adjust the volume.
Thanks,

HT4437 how to use airplay mirroring between ipad3 and apple tv without any internet or wifi

I do presentation and a lot of the time, there is no wifi or internet connection available in the room (school, church, community center).
Is there a way to use airplay mirroring so I can use my powerpoint or my keynotes from my ipad to the apple tv?
I also have a macbookpro, I know there is a way to create your own network with the macbookpro, how don't remember how, but would prefer not to have to carry my macbookpro.
thanks
Christian

You can stream the content with a local connection. You dont need "internet", but need to connect the apple tv to a wireless router(plugged in with no internet) or hardline. Then connect the ipad wirelessly to the same router. Its a basic internet setup without the "internet ethernet cord" plugged in.

How to use both a PowerMac G5 and a remote PowerBook G4?

I just finished installing my new 2.3DC G5 and migrating my info from my Powerbook. I also set up a wireless network with Airport Express. Everything has been running smoothly and without any problems. So far I am extremely pleased with my new system. I have all my emails, files and everything on the new G5, and I am working from this machine.
I travel quite a bit, and plan to take my powerbook with me and do not want to have duplicate files on both systems... What is the best way to organize my information? Is there a way to access my G5 from a remote Powerbook? including emails? Remote desktop? File Sharing?
Is it a big issue that the Powerbook is using Panther and the G5 Tiger? Could it be possible to install Tiger from the G5 dvd on the Powerbook?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Francisco
You could subscribe to .mac and use their sync service. You have up to 1 gig of online storage space, and could sync files between the two machines, including address books, browser files, personal files. More info at http://www.mac.com. I'm not sure if this works with Panther as well as Tiger, but I would assume it would.
Note you will not be able to install Tiger on the Powerbook with your G5 DVD - not only is this against the licensing agreement, the DVD is most likely keyed to the type of platform it was provided with (i.e. the PMG5)
With regards to the emails, you can keep these syncd between the two machines without .mac - just set up your mail retrieval settings so that a copy of the mail remains on the server, and is only deleted once the mail is deleted locally from your machine.
Another way would be to keep your most important files on a USB memory stick, and put it in which ever machine you want.
You can of course also set up file sharing or use remote desktop, however this would mean leaving the G5 turned on when you go travelling, and you would be reliant on Internet access in order to use it.

How to use annotation with GUI in swing

hi,
i am new to annotation. I know how to use this with classes, methods and java elements. I am developing a tool in applet to post comment on my notepad, but unable to find that how to use this with GUI of swing. I have gone through most of forums and tutorials but got no idea. Anyone could give me little idea.
Thanks

>
i need to use the applet mousedown function in swing..>There is no such class as 'applet' in the JRE, Swing has an upper case 1st letter, functions in Java are generally referred to as methods, and there is no 'mousedown' method in the JRE.
OTOH a Swing JApplet inherits the mouseDown method from Component, and it was deprecated in Java 1.1. The documentation (JavaDocs) provides instructions on what to use instead.
>
is there any way to use it or any other alternative is available for this?
if can provide me a sample code.>If can provide me cash. Short of that, you might actually need to do some research/coding of your own.
As an aside. What does any of this have to do with Java 2D?

Hey xxCreepyFiaxx,
First, I would try the following suggested steps for when you don't see content in iTunes after updating:
Quit iTunes.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes.
Use the Finder (Mac) or Windows Explorer (Windows) to go to the iTunes folder that contains the iTunes library files:
Mac OS X
/Users/username/Music/iTunes/
Microsoft Windows Windows XP and Windows 2000
\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Microsoft Windows Windows Vista and Windows 7
\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
Drag the iTunes Library file from the above location to the Desktop.
Open the Previous iTunes Libraries folder in the iTunes folder.
Locate the file named iTunes Library YYYY-MM-DD where YYYY-MM-DD is the date you upgraded iTunes (Year-Month-Day).
Drag this file to the iTunes folder (the enclosing folder).
Rename this file to iTunes Library.
Open iTunes.
You should now see your missing content in iTunes.

If that doesn't resolve the issue, then I'd go through the steps in here:

Hi, Unfortunately my Laptop has died (which had my iTunes on it). I want to ensure my music on my iPhone 5 and my iPad Air are backed up. Also, I want to sort my music in the way I used to with iTunes. How can I do this with just these two devices?

Hi, Unfortunately my Laptop has died (which had my iTunes on it). I want to ensure my music on my iPhone 5 and my iPad Air are backed up. Also, I want to sort my music in the way I used to with iTunes. How can I do this with just these two devices, i.e. NO Computer? Can the iCloud help? Why can't I download iTunes (i.e. my library as I saw it on the computer) to these devices? Thanks to anyone who can help me here.

You can change the email address of one's appleID...
I'd recommend changing moms email to yours to get a good backup on the Mac
Then switch mom's back to hers
Then change your account to the same email you used.
I've done something similar when I needed to update my Apple account (one ID changing email addresses and phone)

A friend gave me her VAIO laptop.How can I remove her ITUNES library and use mine which I want to sync with my Ipad and Iphone?

A Friend gave me her VAIO laptop.How can I remove her ITUNES library and use my library. Want to sync my Ipad and Iphone to My library.

I believe when you plug her old iPhone in to your computer it will notify you that the phone is synced with another library and ask if you want to register it with your library. At least this is how iPods work. I'm not sure about iPhones. If you want to actually use the phone as your own you may need to go through AT&T.
If you're just looking to use the iPhone as an iPod (without the phone portion of it) you may run in to some problems. The iPhone really wants to be on a cell network all the time. I think you'd have to jailbreak it to get it to work properly as an iPod.
Let us know what happens when you plug the phone in to your computer.

Yes, that appears how Mavericks works right now. However, you can open the Address Panel, select all your contacts, then click the To (or CC, or Bcc) buttons to move the selection to the address field.
If it is not already in the Toolbar, right-click on the Toolbar and select Customize Toolbar…
Then, drag the address panel up to wherever you want it.
You may also want to add it to the New Message window in the same way.

My nephew and I use the same iTunes account and when I add an app it is loaded on to his iPhone and vice versa... How do I make that stop?

My nephew and I use the same iTunes account and when I add an app it is loaded on to his iPhone and vice versa... How do I make that stop? I have already unchecked the "Auto Update Apps" button. It happens with all purchases in the app store and on iTunes. HELP!

I also think separate accounts is the way to go....if he is over 13yrs also remember if you do make an account for him and use your bank card all purchases will be charged to your card.
