    If not, I have used Macro Express to format tables in Rh. No reason it could not be used in Word.

    how can i watch movies on my macbook and ipad from an external hard drive?

    Import it into an iTunes library and then sync the iPod with that library. If desired, create a new library on that drive by launching iTunes with the Shift(Windows) or Option(Mac OS X) key held down.

  • How do i watch movie rentals i rented on my imac but view on my apple TV

    How do I watch movie rentals I rented on my iMac but view on my apple TV?

    How do I watch movie rentals I rented on my iMac but view on my apple TV?
    Sounded like a good question to me but nobody seemed willing to respond. So... as I had never rented a movie, I decided to test the work flow on one of the $0.99 "specials" found on iTunes. For my test, I selected "Dark House." The 943.5 MB SD movie downloaded in about 8 minutes to the "Store/Downloads" area in the  iTunes app on my older PPC computer—most likely a volatile cache area as I could not locate a physical file at the Finder level. In any case, it seems that if you select the file in the "iTunes/Downloads" tab, it appears you can play the file locally on the computer (later confirmed this). However, as I wanted to take advantage of the my ethernet connection to my main HDTV, I went to that TV2 device connected to it and checked it's local menu. Sure enough, I found the movie available in a newly added "Rentals" menu that now displayed between the "Music" and "Movies" sub-menus within my own iTunes Library menu.
    Be advised that starting file takes a second or two of extra time each time the you quit/restart playback as it seems the movie must be "re-authorized" for the device each time. Further, the rental can only be played on one device at a time. That is, if you want to switch from the device to another, you must close the playback sub-menu for the current device before opening the file on an alternative device. In my case, I tested switching the movie back and forth between an TV2 device and the iTunes player.
    Hope that answers your question as I plan to go and watch the move now. If nothing else, this was a learning experience for me. Quality was typical for the data rate and I had no problems viewing the content on my system. I also like the fact that chapter "descriptors" were used for this content rather than the default chapter numbers I normally use.

    How can I delete all of my contacts from my iphone? I have updated my contact list in Outlook, and need to re-import that "clean" list.

    There is a checkbox on the 'info' tab in iTunes that will allow you to overwrite the address book on the phone with the one from the computer on the next sync.

    I have one playlist on iphone4. how can i add new playlist without deleting old one. i do not have old playlist in itunes any more.When i try to sync iphone with itunes it says that this action will remove my old playlist and all songs.

    "it says that this action will remove my old playlist and all songs."
    Are you connecting to a different iTunes library than you normally connect to?  That will erase the songs and playlists since the iPhone can't be connected to multiple libraries even if it is in manual sync mode.
    If you no longer have access to the original library that your iPhone calls 'home', then the only way to save the playlist (and the songs on your iPhone) would be to use a 3rd party application to extract your iPhone contents to this new iTunes library you're trying to connect to.

    Hi, Kenny. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    There are a couple things that I would recommend trying.  Try closing all open applications and power cycle the device.  Next, go through the section labeled Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in the second article below.  If the issue persists, try completely signing out of the iTunes Store on the iOS device and sign back in.  Be sure to test downloading an application after each step.

  • Im accustomed to watching movies and tv shows on my laptop but now have an HP Tablet using Firefox. How do I watch my show now (ie, Netflix, Amazon, HULU, etc)?? n

    Is someone available to walk me through how I can watch my movies and TV show on my HP Tablet (like I used to do on my laptop via Netflix, Amazon, HULU, etc (with Firefox installed)?
    Thanks,

    Unfortunately, there is no Firefox for WebOS.

  • How do I watch movies

    How do I watch the online free documentary movies with apple TV on my LG TV from my conputer

    It does matter.
    Either they are available on the Apple TV or they need to be mirrored.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.
    If you can't mirror, which you can't if your profile is correct, we need to know which service provides these shows so we can answer your question.

  • How can I watch movies via Netflix subscription?

    Sorry for a basic question - I have an active Netflix subscription for streaming.....but cannot figure how to watch movies on my iPad air??
    I tired "activating a device" on Netflix but cannot figure what code to put it??

    This is what I can find for Netflix:

    In order to watch Netflix on your Netflix enabled device you will need a computer with internet access, an internet connection for the device itself, and a Netflix subscription.
    Open your preferred web browser on your computer and navigate to www.netflix.com
    Log into your acct if necessary and click "Your acct & Help" on the upper right hand side of the page
    Scroll down the page until you reach the "Watching Instantly on your TV or computer" section and click the link for"Activate a Netflix ready device"
    On the device itself, navigate to the Netflix App (location will vary based upon model-please see your manual for specifics)
    After launching the app for the first time, you will be asked if you have a Netflix acct. When you answer "Yes", you will be given an authentication code that you will then need to enter on the page you should now be at on your computer.
    Click the "Activate" button after entering the code on the "Activate your Device" screen from your computer.
    Netflix will now link your device and your acct; you will see a confirmation message on your computer when successful. You should now be viewing your Netflix home screen on your device. Select a title to begin streaming.

    Though I'm not entirely sure that is necessary on the iOS Netflix App.

  • How do I watch movie extras on my iPad ?

    I Just bought the winter solder hd version and it is working on my iPad 3 but I don't seem to be able to access the extras that I thought came with this movie.
    i Normally buy the blue-ray for films like this   As I enjoy the extras showing how things are done but since I can not preorder this title at amazon I bought the iTunes version.
    are the the extras not available in iOS? What about on my Apple TV when I get home?
    and why are the extras not seen on the iPad? If in fact that is the problem?

    At the moment they are not available on iOS devices, iOS 8 in the Autumn will change that. If it's an Apple TV version 2 or 3 then they should be available on that.
    From Buy and play movies with iTunes Extras :
    You can see iTunes Extras on Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation) or your Mac or PC. iTunes Extras will also be available on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch this fall with iOS 8.
    Here’s what you’ll need to play iTunes Extras:
    iTunes 11.3 for Mac or PC
    Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation) using Apple TV software 6.2 or later
    An active internet connection

  • How do you watch movies online that require adobe flash?

    I would like to know what application to use to watch movies online on Hulu or Xfinity. Both require flash but I read that Flash doesn't play well with Mac. Thanks!

    If you had said what Mac you have and what version of OS X I could be more specific, so:
    You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3.183.23 or later, is for Intel Macs only running Tiger or Leopard, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.4.402.265 or later is for Snow Leopard onwards.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC (G4 or G5) Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    (If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, try the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the version 11.5.502.55:)
    Download this http://scriptogr.am/nordkril/post/adobe-flash-11.5-for-powerpc to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.
