I can download a movie faster over my broadband connection using my ATV3 than the same movie over my LAN

I can't believe the poor performance of my networked iTunes setup. It has deteriorated over the past 12 months or so such that a purchased movie (HD Dark Knight Rises) can be downloaded from iTunes directly to my ATV3 faster than my n-based network at home even when i wire using 1Gb ethernet! My network connection is via cable, but it still utilises the sme WIFI connection to get to my ATV3 - How can this be?
I has seen various threads that talk about reseting the network, the ATV's, iTUnes, restarting my iMAC etc. none of which has any effect anymore (it did appear to previously).
I have iMAC to host iTunes, MacBook, 2 x ATV2 and 1 x ATV3, 2 x Airport Express for audio, 2 x iPad, 2 x iPod, 1 x iPhone 4S and 1 x iPhone 5 so it is safe to say that i am pretty heavily invested in Apple and I love the products but the more invested i become the more dissappointed. It is a real shame that regression testing does not seem to be high on their agenda these days.
If there are any bright ideas out there i would love to hear them cos i have run out for now..............
Thanks

From my Airport Extreme, throughout my network (other than my cable router) everything is Apple, I update when patches become available. I check using iStumblr what conflicts there might be. Basically, other than the network being in my house it is as close to being the defacto Apple setup as it could be (notwithstanding my applications which are not that numerous).
Furthermore why can the same network enable me to stream from the iTunes store the same movie across the same network faster than on my local LAN where the only difference is going to be the location from where the data is "served". Especially when everything has worked in the past.
You are correct though in many respects given that the term network is loosely attributed to everything from the cable through WIFI and the chipset and firmware. So generically it is likely to be the "network" or an attribute of it. It would appear however that my issues coincided with a firmware upgrade, I would be very happy to uninstall and go back to previous versions to solve my problem but it isn't possible and I have no intention of jailbreaking my devices. If I could then i would nail the problem and inform Apple of my findings.
So, given that I am entrely Apple, that I install all firmware updates across all products and that I check for network interference............
Hence the reason for the post.

Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo.

How can you tell how fast you are sampling when using digital inputs to the PCI6014

i am currently sampling information via th edigital inputs of teh PCI6014. However in order to perform FFT and even to use the "Amplitude and Phase Spectrum vi" i need to know my sampling rate so that i can wire this constant to dt.i have attached the Vi that i created as well as some sample data. can you please help me to configure it such that i obtain a correct display of amplitude and phase. thanks

Hello,
Thanks for contacting National Instruments.
I found some information that I feel will help you to calculate the sampling rate, so that you'll be able to use this constant in your VI. Please see the link below.

I buy all of our movies on our apple TV that is associated with my apple ID. I want to put a movie on my wife's new iPad but it gives me a 90 day warning that she won't be able to download anything. Do we really have to buy two copies of the same movie?

Do we really have to buy two copies of the same movie? There has to be a way for one family to share movies on all of our devices.

Ahh, thank you! What a pain in the neck. I figure I must have been signed into his account at some other point in time, maybe after... watching a movie..? [Though, that'd be the iTunes store, right? Not the App Store.] Anyway, some situation must've occured where I absentmindedly updated and iPhoto is now tied up with his account.
I'll go ahead and contact support to see if they can get me sorted. I suppose I can just ask him for his password, but.. oh, you know, it's a temporary solution and I guess I was just hoping to easily get iPhoto properly associated with myself again. Thank you!

I just bought a new Iphone and when I connected it to itunes and I downloaded the backup from my last device, now I can't pass this step and every time I connect it to itunes is the same thing.

And I can't download any app because problems with my account regarding the credit card but the information is correct and it says it is not!!!

You'll have to contact iTunes store support regarding your credit card information problem: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html. I'm not clear on what you're saying about your backup. Are you saying that when you connect to iTunes it's asking you to restore from backup even though you already have?

I have purchased a new iMac, with Safari 5.0.5, but it won't retain bookmarks, I thought I can download a new Safari from Apple. So I deleted Safari from the application folder.

I have purchased a new iMac, with Safari 5.0.5, but it won't retain bookmarks, I thought I can download a new Safari from Apple. So I deleted Safari from the application folder.
Then I tried to download Safari from Firefox but after finish download, what I got was a dmg file, with a pkg icon (an opened box) and it can't be installed. Same with Google Chrome.
My question is: how can I download Safari? And will it retain bookmarks?

Reinstall Safari from the Optional Installs.pkg on your Mac install disc that came with your iMac. Or in your case, you use Pacifist to extract the Safari app from the .dmg file.

Go to the webpage you want to bookmark. If you use tabs, you can open multiple webpages in tabs to bookmark them as a collection.
Choose Bookmarks > Add Bookmark, or Bookmarks > “Add Bookmarks for These Tabs.”
Type a name for the bookmark or collection in the dialog that appears.
Specify where you want to keep the bookmark or collection. You can add it to the bookmarks bar, the Bookmarks menu, or to a collection if you have created any.
Click Add.
To add a bookmark quickly, click the Add button in the toolbar, or drag the webpage’s icon from the address field to the bookmarks bar.
To see your bookmarks, choose Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks.

My wife and I both have the iPhone 4 and it's actually pretty simple. Add another user on your MBA (her) and she can use the other iTunes when she is logged in. The iTunes is empty and will erase her iPhone, so be sure that she syncs her iPhone, then back up her library onto a portable media device like I did (SD Card) and reload it onto her empty iTunes on your MBA before she attempts to sync with it.
Works well...

Can i transfer everything from one ipad to another so both have exactly the same things

Can i transfer everything from one ipad to another so both have exactly the same things?

Yes. Copy your apps and other iTunes purchases/downloads to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases if you have iTunes 11 on your computer), then backup up the first iPad and restore that backup onto the second iPad.
Backups and restores : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4079
Things that aren't included in a backup include the contents of the Music and Videos apps (but they should be on your computer's iTunes) and photos that were synced from a computer. Also you will need to enter your passwords (email, wifi, website) on the second iPad - they won't be restored onto a different device, only back onto the device that the backup came from.

After the newest update, i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?
TIA

Your System Details are showing Fun Web Products. Suggest you look in Add-ons - Extensions and Plug-ins, and Control Panel>Add/Remove programs or >(newer version) Programs and Features. You could also do a search of your computer.
Fun Web Products(associated with MyWebSearch) always seems to cause problems, Alexa does, too, but less often - there may be conflicts.
I'm not an expert on these two products. I'm afraid I can only alert you to the problems. Google will show you plenty of evidence of problems. You might also try the Search Firefox Help box above - a gold mine but it usually requires a lot of digging.
You can start Firefox in Safe Mode - Hold Shift Key down as you double click on the Firefox icon>ignore the page that opens>Continue. If that improves things you could do a little troubleshooting(Safe Mode, Problematic extensions etc), use default theme, -

I downloaded mountain lion on my laptop. Do I need to do the same on my Desktop and iPad or is the one download good for all 3, and how do I do that if it is?

I downloaded mountain lion on my laptop. Do I need to do the same on my Desktop and iPad or is the one download good for all 3, and how do I do that if it is?

If your desktop computer is one that supports Mountain Lion, you can either download it there or make a bootable jump drive with the installer on it -- assuming you haven't yet used the installer you downloaded to your laptop.
As for the iPad, it doesn't use the same OS as the Macs do; it uses iOS versions, so Mountain Lion won't work there.
