Is there or can Microsoft develop a app for smart TVs so you can stream from Windows Media Center

I have used Windows Media Center for years to record TV programs and have even sertup my kids Xbox 360 as an extender.  I've recently purchased a smart TV which allows me to steam music and home videoes from Windows media player but ofcourse the .wtv
files will not play.  Would it be possible to develop an app for Smart TVs and other devices so they can be used as extenders.  I'm sure many people would be willing to pay for the app.  I've tried some 3rd party extenders and not been
happy with there performance and I'd like to not need another box and remote.  I'm sure these new TVs have the ability to do it will microsoft allow them too? 

Hi,
I agree with S.Sengupta.
You may contact the support of the smart TVs and request a tool to match Windows media player.
Hope it helps.

    Hi mom2sibes,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    With Home Sharing, you can stream music to your iPad. To transfer the songs to your device, sync it with iTunes. See this article for the steps:

    You may also be able to download the songs to your iPad using the steps in this article:

  • I have FaceTime on my macbook pro but want to add it to my Mac pro.  Since I've already purchased the app, it won't allow me to purchase it again.  Can I use the app for both computers?  How can I access FaceTime for this computer v. 10.6.8?

    I have FaceTime on my Macbook Pro but want to add it to my Mac Pro v. 10.6.8.  Since I've previously purchased it in the app store, it won't allow me to purchase it again.  Can I use the same app for both of my computers?  If so, how do I access the app to download it?

    If you upgrade to Lion it comes bundeled with it!
    To get it on your Mac Pro just copy the aplication from the aplication folder on your MacBook.  You can do this via a thumb drive or over a local network connection.

  • Can't find IPhone app for Calendar view when you turn on the phone - anyone

    I read about (can't remember where) an Iphone app that allows you to choose your calendar view as the thing you see when the phone is turned on before you slide the arrow to the right to open everything up; meaning, you can just press the top button or the bottom screen button and immediately see your calendar. Does anyone know what this app is called? I can't find it anywhere! Thanks!

    The Health app is a default app and cannot be deleted. Search for the Health app by touching the screen and sliding your finger down to reveal Spotlight search. Type in Health and the Health app should come up. That means its on your iPhone somewhere.

  • Can I develop an App or a Game for PC on MacBook Air?

    I want to be a game programmer. And I love Apple. Now I'm learning C++. With Microsoft Visual C++, I can program a software. But I want a MacBook Air. Please help me. Can I create a game on MacBook Air (2012 Model). I know that I can develop a game for iOS only on Mac. But can I develop for PC. My PC is not good. Or can I develop a game for OSX on MB air? Please........., help me!

    No, we can't rename apps. You can report the grammatical error to the developers if you like and see if they release an update to put things right.

  • Trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings

    trying to update apps on iphone and getting error message, there is not enough available local storage to download these items. you can manage your local device storage usage in settings. What am I to do?

    The storage you purchased is in the cloud, and doesn't do anything with your pad.  Your problem is simply that you have too much content on your pad.   Go to settings, general, usage, and it will show you how much space you have avaliable on your pad.  If you let the screen sit for a while, all the apps will be displayed, and you can see how much stuff you have associated with each.
    You have to no option but to delete some of the content on your pad.  Videos, comics, pitcures and some music files use a lot of space.   The cloud allows you to leave stuff there, so you can get it when you need it.

  • Can I develop JMS apps using J2SE 1.4.1 SDK?

    I am using a Mac using OSX that supports J2SE 1.4.1 (but not J2EE). Can I develop JMS apps on this platform?
    Thanks for your time.
    (I have searched this forum before I leaped into wasting anyones time, but have not found any answer)

    You will need JMS combined with your j2se and a JMS implementation(like mqseries). Thats it. No need of j2ee. You can use them in Mac using OSX.
    Please refer samples in sun for sample jms programs.

  • How can I distribute an app for specific customers only

    I have developed an app that our customers can take to a remote site, input data at the site, then return to the office and upload their data to software that they purchased from us.  This app would be useless to anybody that does not have our software.
     We could put it in the App Store but anybody could download it (not that it would do them any good).  We would like to have an easy way for our customers to obtain the app (like the Store), but not just make it available to anybody.  It is
    free to our customers since they already have a license for our software.   
    I am aware of the enterprise sideloading option but that seems problematic as well and your own documentation says to use the store if you are deploying to users outside your company: "Enterprise
    apps usually fall into one of two categories: apps you deploy to users outside of your company (including customers and business partners), and apps you deploy only to users within your company.  If
    you want to make your app available to people outside of your company, your best option is to list the app in the Windows Store. "
    In addition, with enterprise sideloading, there seems to be some sort of licensing requirement and you have to purchase 100 of them?  Why is there a licensing fee if you can upload your app to the store and customers can get it for free?  Our customers
    are not going to want to purchase 100 licenses since they only need a handful and we are not going to provide them either.  So, back to the Windows Store.
    There should be some sort of Store option that maybe requires a password to access and download the app, plus provides a category that is actually suitable for enterprise apps (the categories in the store are very limited and none seem applicable).  
    Anyhow, I'm hoping you can help clear this up for us.
    Thank you,
    Karen Healey

    Just look to the next thread!I did that after I replied to the last person to ask this question. I spotted this thread:

    Not much there, but apparently people are trying to hack it together using JavaFX 2 already. I believe I read an article where Oracle itself had given a presentation about a JavaFX2 app on an iPhone; I believe the gist of it is that they want to make it so you can bundle the Java runtime with your application, which makes it legal to sell a Java application through the appstore.

    Most MP3 capable devices should play OverDrive MP3 Audiobooks.
    If you intend to transfer OverDrive MP3 Audiobooks to an Apple® device, note the following…
    iTunes® v9.0.2 (or newer) is required.
    The Apple device must be formatted for use with Microsoft® Windows®.
    The iTunes setting 'Manually manage music…' must be enabled for the device before you can complete the transfer. Adjust this setting in iTunes as follows…
    Connect the iPod® to your computer.
    If it does not launch automatically, open iTunes v9.0.2 (or newer).
    In iTunes, locate the device in the left vertical navigation panel (under heading 'DEVICES'), and click the device.
    The 'Summary' screen is displayed. 
    Place a checkmark next to 'Manually manage music…'.
    Click the 'Apply' button.
    The iTunes 'Summary' screen refreshes, and the changes are saved.
    If desired, close iTunes.

  • When i try to open the iPhoto app, i getting a message "you can't open the application because it is not supported on this type of mac"

    when i try to open the iPhoto app, i getting a message "you can't open the application because it is not supported on this type of mac"

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
    For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    *Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
