I already have a wireless BT router but still I need an airplay together with apple TV?

I would like to buy apple TV. As I already have a wireless BT router Do I still need to purchase an airplay together with apple TV?

The router does not need to support AirPlay. It doesn't get involved. AirPlay is just a protocol that both end-devices (e.g., the Apple TV and an iPad) have to support. All the router sees is IP packets addressed to one or the other. The router does not get involved in the AirPlay protocol.

  • I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time  Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on  what other external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and  how to configure that disk

    I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time
    Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on
    what other
    external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and
    how to configure that disk.
    A complication that I need to resolve is the fact that I am using Vmware
    Fusion to be able to use Windows on my Mac. Now it seems that Time
    Machine is not backing up my files
    on that virtual Windows without additional configuration and my question
    is whether you can advise me here or whether this is only a matter for
    the Fusion virtual machine.

    If you want to use Time Capsule you can.. you simply bridge it and plug it into the existing router.. wireless can be either turned off or used to reinforce the existing wireless.. eg use 5ghz in the TC which is much faster than your 2.4ghz.
    You can also use a NAS.. many brands available but the top brands are synology, qnap and netgear readynas  series. These will all do Time Machine backups although how well always depends on Apple sticking to a standard. There are cheaper ones.. I bought a single disk zyxel which was rebadged and sold through my local supermarket. It actually works very well for TM at least on Snow Leopard. Major changes were made in Lion and again ML so do not instantly think it will work on later versions. I haven't tried it yet with those versions.
    Any external drive can be plugged into the mac. Use the one with the fastest connection or cheapest price according to your budget. USB2 drives are cheap and plentiful. But no where near as fast as USB3 or FW800. So just pick whichever suits the ports on your Mac. Interesting Apple finally moved to USB3 on their latest computers.
    TM should exclude the VM partition file.. it is useless backing it up from Mac OS side.. and will slow TM as it needs to backup that partition everyday for no purpose.. TM cannot see the files inside it to backup just the changes.
    You need to backup windows from windows. Use MSbackup to external drive.. if you have pro or ultimate versions you can backup to network drive. But MSbackup is a dog.. at least until the latest version it cannot restore the partition without first loading windows. There are about a zillion backup software versions for windows.. look up reviews and buy one which works for you. I use a free one Macrium Reflect which does full disk backups and is easy to restore.. to do incremental backups though you have to pay for it.

  • Using time capsule model A1409 and trying to use it as only backup. Already have Verizon wireless router. Do not know which cable port to use in back of time capsule. And also it is asking for password. Have tried all of mine and it will not work.

    Want to us my time capsule model A1409  as only backup. 2 TB hard drive.
    Already have Verizon wireless router. Do not want to use Time capsule as router, only back up for iMac.
    Do not know which cable port to use in back of time capsule to Ethernet port back of my iMac.
    And also it is asking for password for the server John Garland's Time Capsule so Time machine can access it..
    Have tried all of passwords can think of and none work.
    Held the reset button for one second on back of capsule and do not see if anything happened.
    What a conundrum.
    Appreciate any help to get this working.
    Thanks,
    John R

    I have a 2TB Timecapsule and really only use it for Time Machine backups. But the Wi-Fi side is used to sync my iPad at times.
    Mine is wiredup thus;
    Eth cable from iMac to modem (not the WAN port should you have one),  then eth cable from modem to T/Cap in the WAN port (bottom port with an O sign above it)
    I believe when its connected up you may have to set up a wireless network. Follow the instructions to set up Wi-Fi and Network
    and then give it a password. The WiFi icon should appear in the menu bar where you can switch it on or off.
    Its been sometime since I set it with the help of Apple Techs so I might be a bit rusty.

  • IPhone 5s can connect to wireless WIFI router but can not access internet.

    iPhone 5s can connect to wireless WIFI router but can not access internet at work. The admin says the router lets my iPhone connect to LAN, but the iPhone does not have server IP to access the internet. I entered the server IP and port number in the HTTP PROXY fields but I still can not access the web. Any ideas?
    TIA
    Rich

    You IT person should be able to sort this out.  But, they seems to be too busy or disinterested to do this.  Suggest you provide the it person with an iPhone to get interested.
    Any could be lots of things.
    The best you can do is to get access to the admin setup for networking on a pc?  The internet settings are all the same.  Only what names the manufactures change from OS to OS. Check and compare parameters.
    Phone works to internet at home, I assume?

    Hi, I have a wireless linksys router model WRT54G. what i want to do it´s configure a network in my home. I have 2 pc´s, a laptop an a desktop. what I should do to be able to share files,music,videos. between both computers? the laptop has Windows Vista, the desktop has Windows XP Professional. could you give me more details? step by step.   thank you really much.

    its really simple to set up a network, first make sure that all computers are in the same workgroup by right clicking on my computer, then properities, then computer name.
    there you can make the setting for the work group
    do not use the default one, create your own, do this for each computer.
    next thing is to choose any folder that you want to share and right click on it, select sharing, then check the two boxes to share this folder and the other one to allow others to make changes to this folder.
    doing this bypasses the trouble od setting up passwords for right now.
    you should not have the network up and running with folders being shared with all in that workgroup.
    you may want to check the manual for vesta as it may do things a bit differant that xp
    you could also run the create a network wizard in the xp system.

    HELP I have a wireless Linksys router WRT54G connected through my cable company broadband modem on a Mac. I have another computer to which I installed wireless capability because it didn't come with it. This required attching some piece of equipment to the back of the PC which enabled it to get on the internet without another cable modem. My question is this. If I get an iphone or a laptop(with built in wireless ability) will I automatically be able to go on the web because of the router on the Mac.

    yes certainly... if you get any wireless device in network that would certainly connects to a wireless n/w of router...

  • I have setup wireless at home but when I travel how do I find another wireless network?

    I have setup wireless at home, but when I travel, how do I find another wireless network?

    Depends on where you are. Most all hotels/motels have wireless. There are Internet cafes, libraries, Starbucks, and many other places providing WiFi service.
    In your iPad's Network settings you will usually find displayed all detected wireless systems. Not all of them may be usable unless they provide free access or you have a paid access membership. You should find this discussed in the user manual:

    I already have a acrobat pro subscription but instead of giving my the download button it gives me the subscribe now button

    Hi paulp,
    I've checked your account. It looks as though you purchased Acrobat outright (versus getting a subscription). Is that not what you thought you purchased?
    That order is currently processing, but once it goes through, you should get a confirmation email from Adobe with instructions for downloading your software. If you're logged on to http://cloud.acrobat.com/acrobat, then that page would be prompting you to subscribe (since you don't have a subscription).

  • Have existing wireless broadband router. Installing TC, shall I continue to use my router as before ?

    Have existing wireless broadband router. Installing TC, shall I continue to use my router as before ?

    Up to you.. the easiest setup is to bridge the TC and plug it into the existing router.. setup wireless in the TC to either act as a new network or complement the existing one.
