Is an apple device the only device I can download music to?

Yes, you are right. iTunes only works with Apple Devices.

Is apple tv the only item that can be connected to a tv for airplay to work? Looking for something smaller for the office

Is apple tv the only item that can be connected to a tv for airplay to work? Looking for something smaller for the office

How big do you believe an ATV is? They are tiny compared to most devices.
The ATV is the only AirPlay receiver, short of an actual AV receiver with AirPlay support, but those are MUCH larger.

How do I set up my iTunes to stream through a sony str-dn1030 receiver that states I can do so? Is apple tv the only way I can do this or can I do it wirelessly?

Any help or direction?

Absolutely. See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5922
It mentions the Apple TV and Airport Express but the process is the same from iTunes. Note that with third-party devices you can only stream audio, not video.

Because it is more far-reaching than just turning the phone off and back on, it completely takes out anything in volatile memory, etc. I do reset mine if I notice problems such as no email coming in, text message issues, etc. but the same thing could probably be accomplished by just turning the phone off and on in your case.
Thanks deggie, I think I get it now. Volatile memory (I had to look it up!) is memory that is lost on loss of power, so it's as you say... I'm not achieving anything on a normally functioning iPhone as on-off achieves the same result!... Thanks

HT2589 I already have 2 devices on one apple ID account and want to add apple TV. How do I add another device on an existing apple ID account so that I can download movies from the cloud to any of 3 devices?

how do I add another device on to my apple ID account so that I can download movies etc.. from my icloud to any of the 3 devices on the account? I already have my iphone and ipad on the account and for some reason my 3rd device (apple TV) dropped off. If you can help, greatly appreciated!!

Hello there, HannaGriffin.
Since the Apple TV (1st Generation) is the only one that has storage, I would recommend the following Knowledge Base articles for troubleshooting issues with authorization:

My MacBook was wiped of all my music and everything else, and now my iTouch is the only device with my entire music database. My iTouch is old. (Version 6.1.6, Model number: MC547LL/A) Is there any way I can put all the music on my iTouch onto my Mac

My MacBook was wiped of all my music and everything else, and now my iTouch is the only device with my entire music database. My iTouch is old. (Version 6.1.6, Model number: MC547LL/A) Is there any way I can put all the music on my iTouch back onto my MacBook? I hate that I could lose my entire music library by dropping my iTouch in the toilet.
I've tried to plug in my iTouch into my MacBook, but I can't seem to give the music-transfusion without subscribing to iTunes Match or just completely wiping my iTouch.
PLEASE HELP MEEEEE

Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself independently backed up against loss. To use a device with a different setup you transfer the old library from a computer or a backup directly to the new setup, not the device to the library. Media syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

There's an article that Apple has acknowledged this issue. They recommend turning off imessages, reset all settings and then reactivate imessages.
If that doesn't work, you may just have to wait until they release an update, which should be pretty soon.

TS1538 My iTunes, after a short time, decides not to be able to recognize my devices, the only thing that fixes it is a re-install of itunes. it is getting irritating as this will be the 7th time i have had to do it. Any solutions?

The info that was on the old iPhone can only be retreived either by restoring from iCloud/iTunes back up or syncing from iCloud. You need to chek these places and if nothing is there then I'm sorry that data is gone and you will only have the back ups you see.
But check iTunes back ups:

Mac

This is the message I get when connecting a camera on binoculars to ipad. Is there a work around the camera will also load to a SD card

There are a few options:
1. If your camera supports it, you can try a low power mode, or picture transfer mode so it does not attempt to charge from the iPad. some cameras have this.
2. You can add a powered USB hub between the iPad and the camera, so the camera uses the usb hub's power instead of trying to charge from the iPad.
3. You can get the SD card reader and read the photos direcltly off of the card instead of through the camera.

I forgot my Apple ID security question answers and cannot contact iTunes support by phone. The only way I can ask for help is via email. How can I make that happen?             Thanks

Hi! So I haven't used iTunes in a few months but I just got an iTunes gift card and want to make a purchase. iTunes redeemed it just fine but now that I want to make a purchase I am having problems. I can't remember my security question answers and iTunes is requesting them. I have two other verified emails but the are NOT rescue emails. I can't contact iTunes over the phone because my phone lines are out and are going to be out for a long time. The only way I can contact them is by email. How can I do this? Is there an easy way to just reset all my security questions? Please help a girl out. I just want my music!
Thanks so much

HT201343 When I mirror my macbook pro to my apple tv the only thing that shows up is one video that's on my desktop. How can I watch something that's online on my laptop, on my apple tv?

When I mirror my macbook pro to my apple tv the only thing that shows up is one video that's on my desktop. How can I watch something that's online on my laptop, on my apple tv?

Are you using mirroring or using airplay within iTunes? If you are truly mirroring then you can view anything that is displayed on your computer through Apple Tv
Or provide more info on your issue

I bought an unlocked iphone 5 with 32mb especially so I could use any wireless carrier that I wanted to. Why does apple hold me prisoner to use only the carriers that apple wants????? The only thing I can't do is send and receive picture messaging.

I specifically bought and paid for an unlocked iphone 5 from APPLE so that I could use any wireless carrier I wanted to. I have been paying ATT WAYYY too much money the last 20 years. But for some reason APPLE wants to keep me from using any wireless carrier - and I can only use the carriers that APPLE will let me. WHY???? I paid my money!! I expected a lot more than I got. The only thing I can't do is send or received picture messages, but it makes me so Mad that I can';t do that!!!

If you bought an unlocked iPhone then it will work with any carrier but will work only under the restrictions or requirements the carrier sets for its customers. Apple has nothing to do with that. You are describing a problem of restricted access created by the carrer. If you cannot carry out the functions you want, talk to the carrier and see what limits they are placing on you. An unlocked iPhone is fully capable of all functions the carrer allows.

I came to Apple Store fix my iPad and they told me the only thing they can replace it for $254 but I forgot to ask Wich iPad they would replace it with I have the iPad 1

I concur with Ralph; while you can get your iPad replaced, I likewise suggest you consider putting the money toward a newer iPad. Apple has some good deals on refurbished iPads in the online Apple Store you could check out. Depending on what is wrong with your current iPad, you might be able to sell it to someone for parts - eBay is the most likely venue - and recoup some additional money to put toward a newer iPad. I'd recommend a 3rd-generation iPad if you can afford it, though the iPad 2 will still run the most recent version of iOS.
