    There is nothing to transfer.
    Simply select the movie under the Computers option on the ATV.

  • Problem trying to watch iTunes movie with powerbook g4

    My 867 g4 is doing the equivalent of a stutter when I try to watch the godfather (downloaded from iTunes) on it. The picture and sound keep momentarily stopping and starting again. I've got the original hard drive and 384 gb of ram.
    Do I need to upgrade the computer?

    Hi, Erik. I don't watch movies on my Powerbook or download them from the iTunes Store, so I'm certainly no expert on the possible causes of your problem. But here are some thoughts for whatever they may be worth:
    You have pretty minimal RAM installed to support any demanding use of the Powerbook in Tiger, so adding RAM is my first thought.
    Because watching a movie is a pretty demanding use, you may want to make sure no other applications or processes are running on the computer while you're doing it. In addition to quitting all other applications, try turning off BlueTooth and Airport (if you have them) and disconnecting any USB peripheral devices, some of which may occasionally exchange packets of information with the Mac even when they're not in use. Post back and let us know whether these steps make any difference.
    I presume you've downloaded the movie to your internal hard drive and are playing it from there rather than from any other drive - is that correct?

    iv unistalled flash, iv checked plug ins it just wont work,

    It would have been a great help to know precisely what Mac you have, so some of the following may not apply:
    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.
    (If you are running Mavericks: After years of fighting malware and exploits facilitated through Adobe's Flash Player, the company is taking advantage of Apple's new App Sandbox feature to restrict malicious code from running outside of Safari in OS X Mavericks.)
    * 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 (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
    When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
    If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
    You can also try these illustrated instructions from C F McBlob to perform a full "clean install", which will resolve the "Blocked Plug-in" message when trying to update via the GUI updater from Adobe.
    Use the FULL installer for 12.0.0.44:  Flash Player 12 (Mac OS X)
    And the instructons are here: Snow Leopard Clean Install.pdf
    (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.

    Having trouble trying to install itunes 10.5. Receive message saying 'There is a problem with this installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be found. Please contact product vendor'

    Managed to get the installation sorted. Go to Control Panel, and where you have a list of all installed programs, repair all the Apple/Itunes related programs. Installation worked fine after that. Hopefully it helps you out too!

    I have the new iPad3 with Verizon.  I am constantly having problems trying to connect to 3G.  I had no problems like this with my older iPad and AT&T as the carrier.  In fact, I find that if I cannot connect via Verizon, I can pick up my original iPad and connect right away !  Anyone else having this problem?

    I fixed the problem. Sorry apple for wondering if it was on your end.
    These are what helped me:

  • Having problems trying to get my security question and answer sent to my email and it is not showing  up

    having problems trying to get my security question and answer sent to my email and it is not showing  up

    Do you mean that the reset link won't show on your account or that the email doesn't arrive on your rescue email address ?
    The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions), or you aren't receiving the email to it (you've checked the spam folder on the account and tried clicking the reset link again) then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

  • How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance

    How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance downloading it again, especially because (believe it or not) I added it to my phone because that's precisely where I wanted it!! Any help much appreciated

    FYI I had to put this link into firefox to reply - because **** back safari just wouldn't register my clicks to any of the links on the post... Despite reloadeing and even restarting my computer. Totally annoying and a massive pain in the ***.
    But in terms of my initial query; thanks for responding. But no, this is NOT the cause of the problem. I have auto sync and sync over wifi activated, but have also selected manually manage music and videos. Plus, all of my music and videos are on my macbook, absolutely all of it, so if it my phone was syncing with my macbook everything would still be on the phone. Life would be peachy if my phone jsut copied everything that was on my macbook, but unfortuantely it keeps deleting tracks for no apparent reason.
    Any thoughts greatly welcomed, because at the moment i can only conclude that my iphone is crap.

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings

    I'm trying to watch a movie from my iPad on my tv with Hdmi  cable.  Do I need to do anything to the tv to make this work?

    Not really. Using the correct Digital Av adapter and connecting the iPad to the Tv through one of its HDMI ports is all it takes. Of course making sure the correct input is selected in the Video source selection on the TV.
