    The Mac App Store has apps for Mac computers. The iTunes Store does not. You must be running 10.6.8 or later to access the App Store. The App Store is on your computer in the Applications folder and on the Dock.

  • Airtunes on iTunes 8.1 for Mac fails with AppleTV

    I'm stumped. Airtunes works in every case, EXCEPT iTunes 8.1 for Mac to Apple TV. It worked before the iTunes 8.1 update or the Apple TV 2.3.1 update, which I applied within a week, and did not try in between.
    SYMPTOM
    Apple TV Airtunes show as speakers in iTunes as they did before. I can select them, but immediately after it defaults to the previous selection. I can use Airtunes over my Airport Express just fine. I can do Apple TV to Apple TV Airtunes, and that works. I can even use Windows iTunes on my Mac on Windows XP, and that works fine. In other words, same networking, different issues.
    Here's what I've got:
    One Airport Express, v7.4.1
    Two Apple TVs, version 2.3.1, connected by Ethernet
    Two Macs, OSX 10.5.6, iTunes 8.1 (50)
    One Windows XP virtual machine on VMWare Fusion, running iTunes 8.1
    Setup is networked via Apple Airport Extreme, and a 10/100 hub
    Combination I've tried:
    Mac iTunes 8.1 to Apple TV: NO
    Windows iTunes 8.1 to Apple TV: Yes
    Apple TV to Apple TV: Yes
    Mac itunes, Windows iTunes or Apple TV to Airport Express: Yes
    Troubleshooting:
    Power cycled Apple TV
    Turned off Airtunes, turned back on on Apple TV
    Removed registration on Apple TV for all itunes libraries
    Setup Apple TV again with iTunes library.
    Any ideas?

    Yes, that's exactly the problem I have. I have done additional troubleshooting.
    I used another drive to bring up an alternate Mac OS X on my iMac. I tried 8.0.2, it worked. I then upgraded to 8.1. That worked as well. I tried creating a new account on my two machines that don't work, and that failed.
    So then I tried removing iTunes, using these steps:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224
    I also removed my iTunes library on my laptop, which contains nothing. Even after completely removing iTunes and my library, I still could not connect to the Apple TV using Airtunes.
    It doesn't appear many other users have the same problem, including my brother who has a similar setup. At this point, I'm wondering if some sort of third-party software may be interfering. Here's the software I have installed on my machine that might have modified the Kernel:
    VMWare Fusion
    FireFox
    Lotus Mobility Connect
    Lotus Notes
    Aperture
    Final Cut Express
    HP Printer software
    Microsoft Office 2008
    Open Office
    Omnifocus
    SuperDuper
    Java - forgot what I did, but I needed to install a Java package to get a browser-based application to work months ago.
    These are the only programs I have installed on both machines. Do you have any of these programs in common?

  • The itunes store works for everything except apps, how do I fix this??

    the itunes store works for books, music etc but NOT apps - how do I fix this?  I downloaded the latest version and that did not help.

    Are you looking for apps for your computer ( he Mac app store) or apps for your ipod/iphone/ipad ( itunes app store)?

  • I am missing the iTunes Store Tabs for Music, Movies, and TV Shows.  How do I add them?

    I am missing the iTunes Store Tabs for Music, Movies, and TV shows.  How do I add them?
    It is very strange especially not having the Music Tab.  I desperately want to download music...
    Please help, anyone please, thank you.

    To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
    Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
    You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
    The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
    To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
    To go back to your question; you cannot merge accounts, but perhaps using one account for iCloud and the other for iTunes will resolve the majority of the reasons you needed to merge to begin with.

  • How do I get an App store icon for Mac on my dashboard

    how do I get an App store icon for Mac on my dashboard

    Are you on 10.6.8 or Lion? It should have been placed there automatically during the install; otherwise, simply go to your Applications folder and drag the icon to the dock.
    If you're not on one of those OS versions, post back with your version.

  • Can't finish watching iTunes rental movie after pausing - can't restart movie via Settings - iTunes Store - Check for Rentals?

    I rented a movie from itunes using Apple tv. Half way through, I paused it and then accidentally hit menu instead of play. i was  directed to settings - iTunes store- check for rentals and now its just spinning and i can't watch the rest of the movie.

    Backing out of the movie can cause it to be flushed from the system as it is not stored. There seems to be a bug with the check for rentals function, try logging out and back into your account.

  • HT1918 cannot change my email account that the iTunes store uses for my login

    cannot change my email account that the iTunes store uses for my login

    What happens when you try to change it ? You should be able to change by logging into your account on this page : http://appleid.apple.com
    Or via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes
    You might then need to log out of your account on any devices (iPad, iPhone, IPod Touch) that you have and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them.

    You can download it (it's just a file) but you won't be able to install/run it with 10.5.8.

  • When i open ibook, the iTunes store asks for my password. it goes away when i press cancel or when i put in my password. why is this happening?

    When I open IBook, the ITunes store asks for my password.  It goes away when I press cancel or enter my password.  It seems unnecessary to me.  Why is it doing this?  I already paid for the book. 

    If you are trying to update information for your apple id then go to appleid.apple.com and click on manage your apple ID... you'll probably have to enter your old email address/password

  • Movie Downloads from iTunes Store won't play on my Mac or iPhone

    Have just downloaded my Star Trek digital copy from the iTunes store; it is sitting on my Mac's hard drive as a .m4v file of nearly 2Gb; seems OK. However, if I click on 'play' in iTunes it shows a progress bar playing in iTunes & in the separate movie window I get a blank screen & no sound. I then sync'ed it with my iPhone & when I go into the iPod on the iPhone & play the movie I get the error "This movie could not be played". I have some podcasts on the Mac & iPhone & they work OK on both platforms.
    Now I understood that the .m4v format was alright to play on both my Mac & on the iPhone but it's not working for me...anyone encountered this before / got any ideas pls?
    Appreciate any help thx...Brooke.

    Same issue. I've been buying TV shows and movies on iTunes for a long time and copying them to my iPhone to watch on my TV. A few days ago, I tried to move a rented movie to my iPhone the same way I always did, click the "move" button next to the movie under the movies tab for the iPhone in iTunes when iPhone was connected and then click "apply". It would do a quick sync without copying anything.
    I thought I had a bum file, so I e-mailed Apple support and they reset the purchase so that I could redownload, which I'm doing now.
    But my recently downloaded episodes of Lost will also not copy to my iPhone. AND they will not even play on my iMac. When I try to play them, it shows only a grey screen with a progress bar. TV shows and movies purchased and downloaded weeks or months ago still play fine.
    No changes have been made to my system. After the rented movie didn't play and copy, I did a update check and downloaded and installed the latest versions of iTunes and the iPhone firmware. That didn't fix it. I have the newest versions of the Quicktime and iTunes. The computer is authorized for these purchases. The iPhone is authorized.
    I've looked at similar threads and have not found a solution. I'm stumped. If anyone has a solution let me know.

  • How can i use my apple ID with the itune store over my windows laptop

    how can i use my apple ID with the itune store over my windows laptop

    If you don't have iTunes installed on your laptop then you can download and install it from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    You can then log into your account on it via the Store > Sign In menu option (on iTunes 11 on a PC you can get the menus to show via control-B) :
    And you can then select the Store on the left-hand sidebar (you can enable the sidebar via control-S), and then browse items in the store and buy them by clickin on their price.
