HT5437 using another tv with my apple tv
how do I set another tv with apple tv
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Move it to the other TV set and do the same as you did when you had it connected to the first one.

i did the add a computer function and it says that this computer is already associated with an apple id...if you use itunes match with your apple id etc for 90 days...please explain. is this going to screw my wifes account up?
If you both have seperate iTunes Store accounts then basically, yes, it is going "screw up" your wife's account.
iTunes Match is designed as a single-user service which is associated with one and only one iTunes Store account ID. If you have subscribed on your account and want to activate the service on another computer that is already signed in with an account the present account must be signed out and then iTunes signed into your account. This means the other computer will have complete access to your account and will only be able to make purchases on your account. iTM is not designed to be signed in and out at will. If she has apps purchased with her iTunes Store account they will not be able to be updated. -
The Game Center used to work with my Apple ID before I updated to iOS 7.4, I used to play multiple player with EA Real Racing 3 game but it doesn't work at all and every time I tried to go to the Game Center it's just blank, even to the settings nothing!
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>Game Center and sign out and sign back in
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. -
Can I use another monitor with my iMac desk top?
Can I use another monitor with my iMac desk top? Our monitor screen is going out and would like to have another option then replacing the whole thing! I think A LCD TV would be less expensive than the repairs to our iMac.( OS 10.6.8 )
Yes, but we need to know exactly which year model you have? So that we can advise you on exactly which adapter you need for you iMac.
see > How to identify iMac models
Plus, adding that Computer Monitors make better displays than TVs and comparatively cost a little less than TVs.
For examples of monitors that have both DVI and VGA inputs:
see > LG 21.5" Widescreen FlatPanel LED HD Monitor E2242T - Best Buy
or > HP 20" Widescreen FlatPanel LED Monitor W2071D - Best Buy -
I have successffully used my iPad with the Apple TV with no problem but just recently, the Airplay icon doesn't come up on the iPad anymore when I'm trying to connect. What can I do to fix this?
Try restarting your router as a first thing, this sometimes works for me.

Trouble using facetime on another device with same apple id
Hi
I am having trouble using facetime with my wife. I have an iPad 2 and she has an IPhone 4S. When we try to facetime, we are able to connect for a few seconds and then it drops off. We are then unable to reconnect. We both have the same apple Id and e-mail address although I am trying to contact her via her mobile number. Any suggestions would be grateful received.Get an email address (free gmail.com) to use on the iPad.

Use of Apps with different Apple IDs
Can an App purchased from Store using one Apple ID be used by another Apple ID on the same iPad?
You can log out of the currently signed in account by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if it's on iOS 6) and you can then sign in with a different account and you should be able to continue to use the apps from the first account (I only have the one account so it's not something that I've tried).
But as per the page that Demo linked, if the iPad is already associated with an account then you might not be able to log out of it and use another account on the iPad until the 90 days have completed. -
How to sync apps to other iPhone, logged into Mac as another user, with same Apple ID for Store.
Hi,
I'll try to be brief.
Synced my (old) iPhone 4 to my iTunes library, as normal.
Restored contents of iTunes library to my new iPhone 5. Everything worked fine here.
Performed full factory reset of iPhone 4 before allocating for my wife's use.
Created a new user account on my iMac for my wife (to keep things separate).
Created a new Apple ID specifically for my wife, so her iMessages, Contacts, Calendar etc. are all separate from mine.
Moved iTunes library to area that is common to both users (Can't remember exactly, it's something under /users/Shared, I think. I followed a post in these forums.)
Pointed my iTunes library to this location (logged in as me). My iTunes library works fine.
Pointed my wife's iTunes library to this location (logged in as my wife).
Set my wife's iTunes to use the same Apple ID as I use in the iTunes Store. Again, I followed a forum posting. The reason that I did this was to allow me sync purchased content to both iPhones.
Manually imported music folders from under /users/Shared into my wife's iTunes library. (This music syncs successfully with my wife's/my old iPhone 4.)
However, the problem is that all the Apps that I 'purchased' (inc. free apps) and downloaded from the iTunes Store to my iTunes library previously do not appear in my wife's iTunes library (Apps tab) and do not sync to her iPhone 4.When I go to the iTunes Store, apps that I have previously purchased with my Apple ID appear with a 'Download' button underneath, as opposed to 'Purchase' or 'Install'—this confirms that by using my Apple ID, my wife's iTunes library knows what purchases I've made. This is as you would expect.
Can anyone explain why the apps do not appear in my wife's iTunes' App tab?
Anyone got a solution?
I thought I was going about things the right way by setting her up as a separate user on my iMac, creating her own Apple ID for everything except iTunes Store purchases, and using my Apple ID for connecting to the iTunes Store.
Apologies that I don't have the links to the relevant forum postings that I used as my guides.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Tx.I have read wjosten's post on this thread but I don't think that is exactly the scenario I'm describing, nor is it what I'd like to have to do (sign my wife out, sign me in transfer/update apps, sign me out, sign me in).
That's the whole reason that I've configured her iTunes library to use my Apple ID. It should, I would have hoped, allow the apps bought on my Apple ID (that we both use in our respective iTunes libraries) to seamlessly, automatically appear in her iTunes library, and update when appropriate, for that matter. -
Problem using iPad mirroring with an Apple TV and 4:3 Projector
I'm a teacher and I've been using my iPad 2 in the classroom for about a year and a half. I would use Apple's VGA Adapter to connect to my projector, which worked fine. I just didn't like being tied down, and the dock connector would come loose very easily and lose connection to the projector, which interrupted the flow of the lesson.
So this summer, I got an Apple TV and a projector with an HDMI port so I could start using Airplay Mirroring to get the iPad screen onto the projector. But I'm having trouble with the aspect ratio. Forgive my drawing, but the genius at the Apple store had a hard time understanding my explanation, so I'm hoping this will help show what I mean.
My projector (ViewSonic DLP PJD5133) can be set to either a 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio (4:3, 800x600 is the native resolution). My projector screen in the front of the classroom is 4:3, so when the projector is set to 4:3, the image fills up the screen (which is what I want - it needs to be as big as possible so the entire class can see it clearly; plus it means all the output pixels are being used). When the projector is set to 16:9, the image is letterboxed (not ideal unless I'm showing a widescreen video or image).
The Apple TV's native aspect ratio is widescreen, and the iPad's native aspect ratio is 4:3, so if you use Airplay mirroring on a widescreen TV, the Apple TV will pillarbox the image (add horizontal black bars on each side), so that the image will not be stretched/distorted. (I know that it will show widescreen videos and a few widescreen-ready apps without the pillarbox, but the apps I use in class - Keynote, Noteshelf, etc. - don't fall in that category). The effect on my projector screen is a tiny 4:3 image taking up half the area it would have taken if I had used the VGA connection.
So in the Apple TV, I went to Settings>Audio & Video>TV resolution, and chose 800x600 60Hz (the max 4:3 resolution for my projector). Since the Apple TV is natively widescreen, it seems to accomplish this change be stretching the image vertically; but it basically works because the Apple TV home screen fills up the projector screen. However, when I turn on Airplay Mirroring on my iPad, the image does not fill up the screen. The Apple TV still puts a pillarbox on the image, so I end up with a distorted, square image of my iPad screen. It's the right height - the max 600 pixels for my projector - but it's not as wide as it should/could be.
Is there a setting that I'm missing? I understand that the Apple TV has to stretch its home screen image to accommodate the 4:3 resolution, but I think it should be smart enough to realize that if it's receiving a 4:3 image from the iPad and sending it out to a 4:3 TV, it doesn't need to pillarbox the image.
Before you answer - this is not a problem with the projector settings, and my Apple TV is not defective. You could simulate what's happening on your Apple TV, even if it's hooked up to a widescreen TV. In the Apple TV settings, change the TV Resolution to 800x600 as mentioned above (or any other of the 4:3 options). Now go to the Apple TV home screen, and note the amount of space the image is taking up on your screen (on a widescreen TV, it will be pillarboxed, and it will look like it's been squished horizontally). Then turn on Airplay mirroring on the iPad, and you'll see that the iPad image does not have the same width as the Apple TV home screen and it looks square/squished.
Also, while my projector does have a zoom function, it will not magnify the small iPad mirror image correctly (if I were to leave the Apple TV and projector on a 16:9 setting). It cuts off the top and sides. But even if it didn't crop the image, it's a digital zoom, so that option still won't fix the fact that I'm not getting a full 800x600 image on the projector. The same problem would apply if I were to move the projector farther away from the screen (so that the widescreen image takes up the full height of the projector screen, while spilling off the sides). I'll still have a lower resolution image, which isn't ideal since I'm often showing text on the screen through Keynote. Also, widescreen videos wouldn't fit on the screen, and I can't move the projector easily because it's fixed to the ceiling.
Sorry for the long explanation. Any ideas? I'd really appreciate some insight.We have the same problem, and not only with ipads. Macbook Air is doing something similar. it can only use airplay with 1080 and 720 resolution, so the image is squeezed on a 4:3 projector. We use AppleTV 3 and Mountain Lion OS. We use ATVPRO from Kanex.
Apple must get its act together and fix this, they promise gold and green forests, but nothing works.

when traveling in Europe, Im thinking of using a power converter with my apple charger(110-240) to make sure i dont burn out my ipad mini or iphone 5.
will that work?It is not necessary
Apple power supplies are made to use from 110 to 230 volts without any converter required
You will need adapters to get the pins to fit the wall sockets but that is it

Using another computer with iTunes to charge iPod
I have an 8gb 2nd gen ipod nano formatted for windows. Can I connect it to another windows computer and not have it automatically try to update and just charge it instead? Same goes for a mac? My music is on my desktop (PC) which is where I sync the ipod, but I also have a macbook and a sony laptop and I don't want my ipod to update with the music on the laptops. I just need to charge my ipod using the laptops.
ThanksYou can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7.3 installed hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys. On a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘ Apple) keys. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes 7.3 Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
However the safest thing to do if you want to connect to multiple computers regularly is to change the update preference to "Manually manage music and videos":
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
iPod 101: Fill 'er Up
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod -
HT2204 What is the best way to use iTunes Match with two Apple ID's that have purchased content?
Hello.
In my early years of using iOS devices i have unwittingly made the mistake of creating a second Apple ID for my second device. So now i have two Apple ID's with purchased content associated with them.
I have turned on iTunes Match with the account that has the bulk of my music linked to it. But my second account has maybe 150-200 songs (and lots of apps) that i really like and don't want to loose. Activating iTunes Match for the main account wiped these 150-200 songs off my iOS devices and replace them. Is it possible to have content from both my apple id's on my devices at the same time? Is it possible to combine the content from both of my accounts?I'll try to help a bit.
ITunes match space is different to icloud space. With iTunes match you get storage for 25,000 non iTunes purchased tracks and other than a limit for individual file size, there is no memory limit.
You can turn match on individuallyon each device (I have it turned off on my iPod but turned on on my iPad and iPhone). When you turn it on then you get access to all the tracks, and in my experience any playlists I create have transferred over very well. I understand that some people have had trouble with playlists though.
I'm not quite clear with exactly what you mean regarding cleaning up your library, but be careful about using Match for this. There is no guarantee that matched songs will be exactly the same version as your own copy, due to some mismatches, so you could find some problems there. Personall, I am cleaning up my library before matching, but I am rather particular about keeping my library the way I want it. If you aren't as fussed then match could be the answer.
Hope that helped.
