  • Pictures from apple tv to imac

    I have a first generation apple tv with all my pictures on it.  I was synching with a PC and the hard drive failed.  Is there a way to synch backwards from Apple TV for photos to my new IMAC?

    Firstly do not sync with a new Mac as it will delete the content from the AppleTV.
    Next, the bad news is that AppleTV is not storage/backup and there's no official way to get stuff off it.
    Your options are:
    1 - Dismantle it, remove the hard drive (2.5" PATA) and add connect to the Mac and copy (copy don't alter anything on it) files off the partitions to look for your media.
    2 - Google unofficial AppleTV hacks/modifications, install one and access AppleTv via Terminal to copy stuff over if you can find it.
    Sorry to say neither option is straightforward, and if you're not a Terminal/SSH guru the brute force method may be best though would invalidate any warranty.

  • Can I get a data recovery from Apple if my iMac was in the hard drive replacement programme and I wasn't notified about it?

    Basically my iMac just crashed and I searched on Google for replacing my hard drive and came across the iMac 1TB Seagate Hard Drive Replacement Program at http://www.apple.com/support/imac-harddrive/
    Which is that Apple is asking all 2009 - 2011 iMac users to return their iMac for a free hard drive replacement because it currently has a fault in it. After entering in my serial number, I see that my iMac is elegible for a replacement.
    I did register my iMac with Apple, but I didn't receive any email about this program and I lost all my recent data because of the faulty hard drive. I never had an issue before with the drive so this just happened out of the blue.
    Is it possible to get a free data recovery from Apple for this? I find that it was a lack of communication that I lost most of my data.

    I completely understand that it's my responsibility to back up my data but I have it set to every 2nd month, not on a weekly or daily basis to back up the data.
    Apple might not be in data recovery business but could they not acquire a third party to do this?
    This is what happened:
    It was on sleep overnight and when I tried waking it, it was lagging badly. So I shut it down and restarted it. I phoned into techincal support to find out whats wrong, but they were giving me advice to reset the params etc. But i think it made it worse because it didnt want to get passed the white start up screen.
    So I phoned back to ask if it's a usual issue with my version of iMac and the man replied that it isn't common and that I should run the disk utility to check the hard drives health.
    I installed Mountain Lion on a USB and started the disk utility. Then it highlighted in red that it's a hardware fault and cannot be repaired by the disk utility. Therefore the hard drive has a serious fault with it.
    That's when I Google'd for a replacement drive and came across the program. The techincal guy didn't even tell me about it or anything.
    If I knew about this sooner, I would have taken it in for a replacement.

  • Can I stream films from Apple TV to multiple tv's?

    I have a new Apple Tv which is connected to my tv via HDMI in my living room. Is it possible to stream a film to tv's in other rooms? I have an airport express in the bedroom with I use as a wifi extender. I use an Apple Time Capsule as my main wifi router. Can airport express stream video content to a connected tv?
    Questions, questions I know but any help forth coming would be greatly received
    Thanks

    No. You would need an Apple TV for each HDTV.

  • HT1349 It's impossible to contact anyone from Apple helpdesk. You get sent from pillar to post only to hit a brick wall. I need some help as my Audiobooks have disappeared from my library. Been trying for 2 days to get help but can't get through to anyone

    Apple help service is crap. I've been trying to contact someone for 2 days now and can't get through to anyone. My audiobooks have disappeared from my Library - I paid a lot of money for these! None of the 'contact us' buttons get me through to anyone, you get sent electronically from pillar to post and end up hitting a brick wall.What a disgusting service - they can't even design a simple way of contacting them. I thought microsoft were bad but Apple are even worse!

    the thing is i never threw away the project plus i have a copy of it lol... it has something to do with me moving the folder im just sure of it. because when i checked the trash when i tried to delete that new folder, its there.... thats the only thing i deleted from the event library window. then the other projects that were useless that i threw away. should i restore those? i havent emptied my trash.
    also i could never find where it saves everything... so i just did a search... (im not a very techy guy) plus im unsure how to back it up... if its a feature in the program then i havent figured it out yet...
    but i think if i put the "final cut projects" folder back where i took it from it should be fine. im THINKING thats the case. the only problem is i dont know where i got it from. sounds silly i know but i found the folder from doing a search in finder.

  • How do you delete a rented film from Apple TV before the expiry date?

    I rented out a film, but I don't want it to stay on the Apple TV, I have just bought it, but cannot delete it, there is no trash can on the screen, SOMEONE HELP!?

    Have you watched it?
    If so it'll expire in 24-48 hours anyway.  If not start play and stop and it'll do the same rather than sitting there for 30 days.
    Accidental rental or something?

  • Transfer purchased HD iTunes movie from Apple TV to iMac

    Hello,
    If I purchase a HD movie from iTunes can it be transferred to my iMac? Then, I would like to take that copy and put on my Macbook (with USB stick?) which is in turn synced to a second Apple TV. All of my hardware shares the same iTunes account.
    If I can't do this with HD movies, can I do it with standard format?
    Thanks in advance.

    to expand on my previous post:
    If I purchase a HD movie from iTunes can it be transferred to my iMac?
    again, yes. iTunes should be set up as a syncing library, though. purchases made on the TV should sync back to the synced iTunes library automatically on the next sync.
    Then, I would like to take that copy and put on my Macbook (with USB stick?)
    either using a USB stick or via your network. you could also set up _*Home Sharing*_ on both Macs.

  • New screen from Apple in my iMac 24", and burn-in problems already?

    Is there an engineering or manufacturing problem with the 24" iMac screens?
    My last screen was replaced under warranty a month ago because of dimming/banding problems. It also had burn-in issues from early on, but I lived with them. However, I didn't expect a brand new screen to have such severe burn-in problems right from the start.
    Here's what Apple says: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2807 . In summary, they tell you that your problem is leaving images/text in the same place too long. Duh! But interestingly enough, I don't have the same burn-in problems on my PC laptop or cheap HP external monitor.
    I spend hours at a time doing development, and often I'll have an IDE open that has a source tree on a left panel. That widget of text and icons won't change much, and I won't be moving my IDE window around because I have it maximized. It is a normal pattern of use that I can't really avoid.
    Is this also a problem on the Apple external monitors? What about on their laptops? Must I move to a Mini with a Dell monitor? Are iMacs only intended for lightweight users that spend an hour or two each day shuffling windows around and watching TV?

    In addition to my (now archived) thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1979518&tstart=0
    I just had my screen changed under apple care. Excellent option, happy I got it, no hassle, but took three weeks to order and replace the display at the service center. It seems to be a known issue with numerous iMacs, to my surprise also with the latest models, and I have seen this problem on quite a number of iMacs, all over the world, only on the alu models. Though I cannot say for sure what the problem is, I have now installed smcFanControl to increase the minimum speed of the on board fans. Also, as I was suggested by the apple technician, have a screen saver for a few minutes before turning off the display (Energy Saver) to prevent any possible burn ins, (while I remain convinced this is not my problem).
    Keeping my fingers crossed my problem will not re-appear, or that it WILL re-appear before the end of the 3 year apple care.

  • After Ordering OSX Snow From Apple For My iMac To Install Win 7 64 bit

    Customer Support knew I was trying to install Windows7 64 bit when they told me I need OSX Snow Leopard for my iMac in order to do so. I bought the software and it was delivered today. I installed Windows 7 successfully (64 bit) and when I went to install the Boot Camp 3.1 drivers it said I needed Boot Camp 3.0 drivers first. I tried to install those and found out that is when my iMac Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHZ processor cannot handle 64 bit Windows.
    I have already partitioned my HD with Boot Camp 50/50. Is the only solution to uninstall Windows 7 64? How do I do that? Does anyone know if Windows 7 64 bit can be run on an I Mac early 2008 24"?

    do you have SP1 integrated in Win7 instillation disk?

  • Can't get sound on a movie purchased from apple tv

  • Rented film, fully downloaded (eventually) press play now then screen goes to authorizing, then goes black blank, no film , repeated process 3 times, still no joy. first and last time I rent a film with Apple, how do I get my money back ? Thanks

    Rented film from Apple TV  fully downloaded (eventually) press play now then screen goes to authorizing for 10 mins, then goes black blank, no film , repeated process 3 times, still no joy. first and last time I rent a film with Apple, how do I get my money back ? Thanks

    First, that cannot be an iBook G4 as that machine cannot run Snow Leopard let alone Mountain Lion.  To run Snow Leopard it has to be an Intel processor, not a G4.  What does it show as the Model Identifier in About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Model Identifier?
    Second, if you have erased the hard drive there should not be remnants of any prior content.  Even though Disk Warrior is saying nothing is wrong with the hard drive, it sounds as though there are problems.  You may want to consider simply replacing the hard drive so there are no questions about faults.  A good source is OWC, http://www.macsales.com where they also have on-line videos showing how to do the replacement.
    Third, you could also try again to restart using the Snow Leopard DVD/CD and use Disk Utility on that install disk to erase again, and do it a couple times, then try to install.  If it continues to refuse, then it sounds as though there is a fault with the hard drive.

  • I recieved a scam email from apple. then sent me the same email using my own email account. how do I report this to apple. can't find any contact details.

    hi over the past month have received maybe 5 scam emails from apple.
    I opened one the other day cause I thought well maybe it is from apple.
    went through the steps and it was  amazed at how well they did at copying apple website. you could even go to the apple shop page from their page!
    what set me off that it was fake was that I tried to open the other apple pages along the top and it wouldn't let me. so I opened my own apple page and logged in. and realised that they don't ask for your bank details in your Apple ID account.
    anyways so now what has happened is I got an email today " from myself" with this same scam email. it is as if they have hacked my email account and sending me these emails. I want to report this to apple but am unable to find any contact details apart from call back options. does any one have any advice on this.

    I've had that same exact issue, I received the first e-mail claiming to be from Apple last night (though over the past week I've received two other scam e-mails from different addresses claiming that my bank transactions have been aborted). It said it was from my own address, and I checked it closely to make sure it wasn't a spoof account but found it was indeed my own e-mail address. Five minutes ago I changed my password, and I have just now received a second e-mail exactly the same, still coming from my own account. My best guess at an explanation is that it may have been sent before I changed my password and there was just a delay in the message sending, resulting in it coming through after changing my password.
    I've now forwarded the e-mail on as an attachment to the [email protected] address, however this still doesn't help me with regards to stopping these e-mails. It concerns me that even though I changed my password they still possibly have access to my account. I tried checking my account activity but as opening the mail app on my iPhone is considered as a log in and I check it almost twice an hour, it's impossible to tell which could possible be an intruder logging in.
