How to use iPad with apple tv (1st gen) mirroring

Can appletv 1st generation be configured with ipad2 to do mirroring??
I can't seem to figure out where to set that up..
Any help would be appreciated.

Disregard...just realized I need to buy an appletv 2 in order to do mirroring.....that really *****!
I like the 1st gen and really didn't need to upgrade to a new one.
If there is some other way to do mirroring from my ipad2, please let me know before I drop more $$ on Apple product.
Thanks

This is something the app developer enables within airplay mirroring.
There is nothing you can do to enable that.

How can i use ipad with apple tv

How can i use ipad with appletv

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.

Movie content will not sync with Apple TV (1st Gen)

I have some iTunes purchased movies which refuse to be sync'd with my Apple TV (1st Gen). Storage for the ATV is external using FireCore (latest release), and I have added content since this issue began, but the same movies still will not sync.
I have tried syncing as 'Playlists' - my preferred, also ticking the 'boxes' for these items within the 'Movie List' on iTunes, finally selecting 'All Movies' - none work.
My iTunes Library lists 98 items. Apple TV lists 90 items. Both include iTunes Extras
This question/problem is also listed (incorrectly) under Apple TV and Photo's

I am also experiencing major sync issues with my recently purchased Apple TV which will NOT transfer any content (purchased or otherwise) over from my iMac (27" 2.66 GHz Intel i5 Core). I am running iTunes 9.03, and Apple TV OS 3.02.
All content plays on my Apple TV fine and I've had no trouble transferring purchased TV shows back to the iMac.
I was on the phone with Apple support for well over an hour about this yesterday: failed solutions included factory restores and direct iMac-ATV Ethernet connection. They decided that the Apple TV might be defective, so it was returned and exchanged. New Apple TV=same problem.
Incidentally, the first Apple TV was initially synced with a Windows XP machine running iTunes 9.01. No problems with syncing content from the PC.
I spoke with Apple support again this morning: we tried 2 factory restores, but could not get any content to sync from the iMac to ATV.
I also tried to sync from an older iMac G3 (OS X 10.4 and iTunes 9.03) with the same unsuccessful result.
Still waiting for Apple support to call back with more ideas. In the meantime, I've synced the ATV back to iTunes 9.01 running on Windows XP without any problems.
Very frustrating: there must be a major ATV sync issue that affects Macs running iTunes 9.03. I hope that Apple will address the problem and offer a fix.

New iTunes videos won't sync with Apple TV (1st Gen)

I have two Apple TVs (1st Gen) that have been working wonderfully. I've had no problem in the past downloading videos from iTunes even as recently as a month or two ago. However, after upgrading both my OS (10.8.2) and my iTunes (10.7) my most recent download (a series subscription) won't sync. I'm ruling out a problem with the Apple TVs specifically as it is happening with both. The message I'm getting is "[SHOW] could not be copied to Apple TV because it cannot be played on this Apple TV". This is the same message I get whether trying to sync the HD (720) or SD version. Thoughts?

You can re-download SD content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer, uncheck the preference to download HD in the bottom right corner.

Has the recent Itunes upgrade caused incompatibility issue with APPLE TV 1st gen?

after recent upgrade to itunes, itunes no longer recognizes data on my apple tv 1st gen....but the Apple TV still has them loaded. additonally this new itunes does not let me resync new songs or movies, etc. thoughts? thanks!

I'm having the exact same issue. Nothing in the "Music" menu except "My Music". I Noticed it this afternoon when I woke my Apple TV from standby. The disappearance, in my case, was not related to a reset. My Apple TV has not been reset since the power went out here several weeks ago. Though I obviously don't know for sure, I'm guessing that it's some kind of store problem and we most likely won't be able to correct it from our end.

Apple Remote on iPad 2 with Apple TV 1st Gen

I cannot get the remote app to work with my 1st Gen Apple TV with my iPad 2?
Can anyone help?
(works find using my iPhone 4)

any luck getting it to work? i was considering getting an ipad 2 - but the thing i wanted it most for was as a remote for my apple tv... but... i thought... i bet it doesnt work with my old apple tv since they have the new black ones out.
so i did a web search and found this string.
seems to me apple is devolving - becoming that familiar monster we all turned our backs on years ago -
i feel punished for having touted an original incarnation of a product (I am the only person i know who doesn't hate apple TVs, and this is my thanks!)
(also looked to set up Netflix on it but apparently that's only for new ones too???)
but... i still like the machines... any luck?

Problems with iTunes syncing with Apple TV 1st gen

all of a sudden today I am having problems with itunes 10.6.1 syncing with apple TV gen 1. Everything was fine when I upgraded itunes and iphoto 11.
Today the apple TV shows up in devices but when I try to sunc it manually (it won't start autmatically even though it is supposed to,
I get a message
If you try to sync content your Apple TV (1st generation), this alert appears in iTunes: "The Apple TV '(Your Apple TV's name)' is not responding. Check that any firewall software running on this computer has been set to allow communication on port 3689."
My firewall is turned off. I operate Lion on my laptop
Please help. seems like I had this issue before but do not remember what caused this and how it was resolved

I have a similar problem. ATV1 (3.0.2), itunes 10, connected via wireless time machine (hardwired to router) + airport express wireless extender. ATV showing in itunes menu. All TV shows, movies, music etc showing on ATV (not sync'd) EXCEPT 4 episodes of one TV show that was purchased as a series on iTunes (not on the ATV).
I have also had the firewall error - intermittently.
Have rebooted iMac. Have factory reset ATV and re-set up. Tried just sync'ing the 4 episodes I want to watch. No luck. Tried marking episodes as watched. No luck. rebooted everything. Twice.
ATV1 accesses all other info on iTunes (music, movies etc).
Infuriating.
Any ideas?

Unwatched items not syncing with Apple TV (1st Gen)

Hopefully someone can help me?...
I have a 1st Gen Apple TV, Windows 7 64bit, and iTunes 11 (wishing I'd never upgraded now!)
I have it set up to Custom Sync (FILMS: Automatically include 'all unwatched' films with selected films. TV PROGRAMMES: Automatically include 'all unwatched' episodes of 'all programmes'. And not to sync anything else.)
Before, in version 10, if you made the slightest of changes (even marking something as watched then as unwatched) you could press the Apply or Sync button.
But now when I add a new Film or TV Show, or mark one as unwatched, I cannot sync it to my Apple TV.
iTunes marks it as New/Unwatched but the Apply button stays greyed out and I cannot Sync.
Any ideas welcome.
Thanks.

Why does the remote app not work with Apple TV 1st gen anymore.

This is a review I just left on the app store, I am posting it word for word, and i hope that dowsnt complicate anything. My hope is that this finds the right party to address the situation, and if any user has a fix, I would love to hear it.
I have an Mac mini running iTunes as a server, I have 2 airport expresses to allowing airplay to them for different rooms, and I also have 2 Apple TV first gens... I can play one stream of music from the server, and have the option of playing 2 other streams of music from the apple tv's as they have a built in hard drive to sync music to. I can send any of the feeds to any o the devices in any room and i love it. This whole system used to work flawlessly... It doesn't anymore. The latest update of remote broke what was working so well. I can pull it up and see all 3 music sources, log into each and play music, no problem there. The problem is that when I want to log back into that device, it won't show what music is playing. It loads up to a trackpad... Why do I need a trackpad? the point of a wifi remote is that it interfaces directly with the library, not needing to see the display... Annoying enough in itself as none of my devices are actually hooked up to a screen, but whatever, annoying point aside, I back out of the trackpad and refresh the device playing music... The music is playing, but won't show on my remote, I can't pause, press next song or anything. I have to start over and pick a song and override the currently playing song. Even the volume control is broken. I used to control each volume of each of the multiple devices individually, they each had a slider in the multiple speaker view, now there is only one master volume slider... One speaker is in my baby's room... If she is sleeping I don't want to have to go into the room to physically adjust that speaker, I want an individual slider like there was before.
I used to be very happy with this app. I'm not anymore. I used to praise apple and promote the functionality of it to all of my friends. Now I'm just embarrassed when I can't control it when they are over. Embarrassed....
As another fail.... I want to describe another point. As I have the iTunes server, it should be able to handle multiple things at once. It can to an extent... For example, I can play music from the server to an airplay device, and I can go onto my iMac, load up iTunes, click on shared libraries ad load my entire library from my server. I ca also at the same time take my iPhone, click on music, and again pull up my entire shared library of music from the wifi server... It handles this very well. I recently purchased an Apple TV 3. As it does not have a built in hard drive, it relies on content from a locally attached network or stuff from your iTunes account. So while I can use my iPhone to pull up the entire shared library while its also playing elsewhere, why can Apple TV 3 not?... It's using iOS just like my iPhone. All it was good for was airplay as an extra speaker. It wouldn't work as an extra rendered source of media using the shared library. Needless to say, that Apple TV went back to the store. Fail Apple, Fail.... That was the only reason I bought one. Maybe Apple TV 4 will actually be functional without a hard drive.

Working fine on my system
If on wifi, try ethernet
Make sure router is up to date
Reboot all components

Question for audiophiles using Airplay with Apple TV 2nd Gen

I'm using AirPlay on my iphone to play music to the Apple TV 2nd gen. (running optical out of AppleTV into high quality Rotel receiver) I'm hearing what I believe is best called "pumping" in the audio: the volume is modulating in waves, and the music sounds distant. I can't figure out what would cause this. I've got excellent signal strength so I don't think it's a bandwidth problem where the devices might be over-compressing and thus introducing artifacts.
I've done A/B comparisons with the same song, hardwired to my receiver, and I've heard it on all the tracks I'm streaming, so I know it's not in the recording.
Has anyone experienced this phenomenon? Thanks.

Sorry, I can only offer sympathies and the fact that I also had this issue with wired connections, using XBMC on my Mac Mini to play out to an Audiolab M-DAC. Unfortunately I made lots of changes trying to set up my Media Center, so I don't know what made it go away!
Just saying that it's not neccessarily an Airplay issue.

How to sync iPad with apps for 1st time to iTunes?

Hi -
Can't find the answer to this question directly, hence posting it here.
My nephew's iPad has many apps , and photos, and he has never synced it to iTunes. He want's me to help him. I'm reasonably familiar with both iPad and iTunes.
However - I'm worried that when he connects to iTunes for the 1st time he will have the iPad wiped clean by the empty iTunes session.
I have searched high and low but can't find a reassuring set of steps to follow.
Hence I would be very grateful to anyone who can point to complete, thorough online instructions, or offer them yourself, on what _precisely_ I must do to get his iPad synced to a new iTunes session for the very first time, without loosing the iPad content.
We need to upgrade the OS badly (its the OS released from the shop purchase).
thanks, for what is probably a question asked with a thoursand variations.
Kind regards,
Kevin Nolan,
Dublin, Ireland.
PS: Apple - if you readt this - iTunes and syncing is a very tricky to handle, with potential dire consequences if you do it wrong even once. At a minimum, please offer greater felxibility and more detailed tutorials across various troubleshooting scenarios such as mine

Thank you both for your time and responses
roaminggnome - my nephew was 10 when he got it and his family are not particularly computer savy. It didn't occur to them that syncing was such a priority. Thanks for the pointer to Apple feedback - I'll post my suggestion to them (I'm sure they've received it many times before!)
Demo - that other thread looks absolutley excellent and your detailed instructions there look spot on - thank you.
Thanks to you both again - genuinely appreciated.
Cheers,
Kevin.

How to use receiver with Apple TV - easy?

So I am looking to buy a receiver for my home theater. I already own an Apple TV (not used it yet). I do see that there are receivers that come with Airplay already installed. So pardon a bit of ignorance here, since I have Apply TV - I would *not* need to get a receiver that already has Airplay. I can get a normal receiver, and use Apple TV to stream my music via my receiver, as well as show video content on my TV (while audio plays through the receiver), correct? And this is fairly straight forward to setup? Thanks!!!

You could still get an airplay receiver and stream the audio wirelessly but they tend to be more expensive. Otherwise just get one of the others and you can connect via the optical port on ATV
