Is there a way I can use my macbook to project the audio and visual on my apple tv?

I just purchase an apple tv. It was my goal to use the apple tv to match video tutorials of a certian website onto my tv. I am now realizing that I do not think this is possible correct? To clarify it is a website that is vimeo, youtube, or anything like that; hence, I can not just log into my account to one of those apps an start watching.
I assuming my only option is purchase one of the those RCA cables that would transmit what is on my macbook into the tv, correct?
I am amazed that that airplay does not exist exist for a macbook unless its through itunes...

then this does it

    If you use the LiveSDK to authenticate the user and specify the wl.signin scope, when the user signs into your app and provides consent to single sign-in when they can go to any Microsoft Account supported app or website they will not have to enter their

  • Is there any way I can use my macbook pro as a second monitor?

    I want to connect it to my Mac Pro, I have two video cards and was hoping I could just run a VGA cable between the two.
    Thanks,

    With Mac OS X v10.5 and later, you can connect to another computer on your network and display that computer’s screen on your computer. While you share the computer’s screen, you can control what happens on that computer, such as opening documents or applications, opening, moving, or closing windows, and even shutting down the computer.
    You can also share your computer’s screen with another computer on your network.
    Mac OS X: Screen Sharing
    If you can connect each computer to the Internet without changing cables, you already have the infrastructure needed for Screen Sharing. (File Sharing as well it turns out.)
    All you need to do is use System Preferences to allow it, and specify who can connect and how much control they get.

    Whether a WiFi connection, especially using an older 2.4GHz-only Router can give you good results is a separable issue. Using the mouse when there is a lot of lag is truly vexing.

  • My friend wants to put music on their iPhone 5C but they do not have a laptop with iTunes that hasn't been associated with another iPhone/iPod. Is there any way they can skip linking their phone to the iTunes and JUST get the music?

    The iPhone has not been associated with any iTunes as I was a little scard to connect it to mine as I do not want all my friend's apps on my phone. Also, we use different apple IDs so would we be able to have two apple IDs associated with one computer?
    SO CONFUSED.
    Please help!

    Your friend can get a new Apple Id for themselves, and create a different account on one of the laptops. Then put all their music in a separate iTunes library, and sync the phone to that particular library.
    This will keep there music separate from your library and their brother's library.
    Just make another User on your computer for your friend to store their music in.

  • Is there any way i can alter my macbook to get the keyboard to light up?

    I recently bought my MacBook and didn't know that lit up keyboard was an option. i am so disappointed, is there anything i can do aside from replacing it to get a light up keyboard?

    If you have a unibody model, it's probably possible, but it would be costly to replace the keyboard.
    There are flexible LED lights you can get that plug into the USB port. They don't take much power and shine on your keys.

  • I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog.  Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

    I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog.  Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It's do-able, but I don't think it's a great idea.
    DVI
    Some users with DVI have managed to get their TV's to work with DVI-HDMI cables. DVI carries no audio, so alternative connections need to be explored to enable audio. DVI doesn't necessarily support HDCP as well as other standards used by HDMI (which may or may not be an issue)
    Analogue
    There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
    HDCP
    HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Resolution and aspect ratio
    I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2), 720p/1080p (Apple TV 3)

    Hi champrider,
    You can use an application such as Apple Remote Desktop to control your iMac remotely. See this article -

    This help page will provide you with some other useful resources for Apple Remote Desktop -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ?

    is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ? because i dont have that much memory and i wanted my external hard drive to be the source for my music files and not my computer.

    Many users keep their iTunes libraries on external drives. You just have to remember to connect and power up the drive before launching iTunes.

  • I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create>pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
    As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
    Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
    n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
    As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
    Be well...

  • Is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches

    I am a Chinese student,I am doing some research on OLAP.
    I'm in the initial stages of evaluating BI Beans for my research. We have previously not used Oracle in house.
    In attempting to use BI Beans, the first thing you must do is install the latest patches against the Oracle database. Unfortunately, the patches are only available for people with a suport contract.
    Is there any way I can get these patches without a support contract, or is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches?
    thanks alot,

    You must have a valid support contract to access Metalink. You could try contacting your local support centre and ask if they could make the patches available to you.

  • Is there any way I can use Skype Number with Viber...

    Hello. With my Skype Number is there any way I can use it with Viber? So I give my Skype NUmber to a friend and they add me on Viber? Or do I have to divert my skype numebr to my actual number?

    Hi, if you give your Skype number to your friend they can make a Viber Out call to that number if they have some viber credit. Calls to landlines are usually cheap but it depends where in the world your friend is calling from.
    Have you got a Viber account too ? Viber to Viber over the Internet is free, like Skype to Skype being free. Persoanally I have both networks now.
    Viber is on smartphones, some feature phones and there's a desktop app too. Your Viber account is based upon the mobile number you register and Viber recognises phone numbers of your contacts to see if they're registered on Viber too.

    Allan,
    If you get your album artwork from the iTunes Store, it is stored in the folder iTunes/Artwork in an encrypted ".itc2" file.  There may be tools out there to extract it, but it is generally much easier to get the art via a web search in JPG format to use in projects.

    Continuity requires OS X and iOS. At least one of the devices you mention is lacking those... So no.
