Looking for AppleTV2 Network Media Server

will the time capsule act as a media server for my apple tv or will it just back up my files? Looking for a good network media server thats not to pricey?

The only media server that will work with the Apple TV is iTunes on a computer.

  • Looking for Mac network professional to setup our small business network.

    I've installed OS X Server on an iMac within our office to act as a file server and also allow us to access files using a VPN.  Probably should have purchased a Mac Mini Server and will likely go that route in the end. 
    I'm computer savy, but little networks experience and just can't get this working correctly. If we had more time to dedicate to this and with help from this forum, I'm sure we could get it up and running.  The goal is to get a simple network going that will allow us to access files, etc in the field and at our home offices with the ability to grow as our business expands.
    At this time I'd really like to have someone just handle the setup of the network so we can get functionality asap.  I've done some searches and looked for a network professional in our area with experience in Mac networking within a business environment, but haven't had much luck.
    If anyone point me in a direction of someone that can help get this going I'd be forever greatful:)

    I'm not a rocket scientist but I do have a working mail server and website using a mini mac and os x server (Mavericks).
    It all begins with your DNS and I recommend you do use a mac mini with OS X Server as it's designed for that very purpose. You absolutely must get your DNS situation working first. There's a guy in this forum named Mr. Hoffman who is particularly useful (there are others) in this area. He has a website with lots of helpful advice and, in particular, this: http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1436.
    However, before you embark on that journey, this is what you'll basically need to do:
    You're going to need a public (external/public facing) DNS and a private (internal) DNS. Your private DNS (served by your os x server) needs to live behind some kind of hardware firewall/router to prevent the great unwashed and curious from venturing into places they probably shouldn't be venturing. It's port(s) should never be exposed to the outside world.
    Get a static IP from your ISP and register a domain name.
    Let your domain registrar provide the external DNS.
    You'll want to set up an internal DNS using OS X Server in the 10.0.0.0/16 subnet (it doesn't seem to let you use 10.0.0.0/8 and it really hates 192.168.0.0/24).
    The server itself will need to be "self-aware" by setting it's System Preferences > Network Preferences > DNS Server to 127.0.0.1.
    Of course, once you get the DNS working you'll want to turn on File Sharing and then (and only then) Open Directory. THen you can begin adding other services such as web, mail, vpn, etc...
    I'm sure there is lots more that I've missed but this should do for now. Good luck.

  • OS X keeps looking for missing network drive

    Hi there,
    I notice, I am not the first to ask the question, but is has not yet been answered and I'm a bit puzzled. I am using OS X 10.7 by now and ever since OS 10.6 I have noticed that - sometimes - finder seems to be looking for a network drive (a former time capsule) that is no longer mounted and available. Every once in a while I get the message that the drive "name" cannot be found.
    Where can I check to get rid of any references to that old drive? It must be mapped somehwere, alas, I don't know where.
    It is not in the startup items, I've checked there and there is no file sharing activated.
    Thanks in advance, Alex.

    I think this solved my problem, after having checked Console:

  • Although I'm connected to my WIFI network my computer keeps "looking for new networks" How can I stop it from doing so when I'm working at home and don't want another network?

    Although I'm connected to my Wi-Fi network my computer keeps "looking for new networks." How can I stop it from doing so when I'm working at home and don't want another network?

    You might want to update Safari to 3.12. I would empty the safari cache. (Safari>Empty Cache). Then quit Safari. System Preferences>Network>Show:Airport>TCP/IP. Insert the following into the DNS Servers box;
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    then hit apply. Now launch Safari. You should also try powering down modem, router and Mac and power up in 2 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

  • My wifi constantly switches between on and looking for other networks

    while I am on my wifi network and internet successfully I notice that it switches between saying WIFI ON and LOOKING FOR OTHER NETWORKS. How do I get it to stop looking for other networks because it is successfully already connected to the right one?

    Hold down the option key and select the Wi-Fi menu in the menu bar. What values are shown for the following?
    PHY Mode
    Channel
    Security
    Signal/Noise or RSSI
    Transmit Rate
    Please do not post the BSSID, as that information is private.
    Now hold down the option key again and select

  • HT2305 I am using an Iomega Home Network Media Server Cloud Edition. I need to know to how to install Bonjour to the Iomega so that it will run my TiVo Desktop Program to transfer media files to/from the TiVo units to/from the Home Network Drive.  Help ?

    TiVo support has already advised me that Bonjour Browser is needed so that the TiVo can communicate with the Iomega.  The Iomega already has installed Apples' AFP protocol.
    The only way that I can currently transfer or access any files on the Iomega Home Network Cloud Drive with TiVo is if the folder on the Iomega Drive is listed in the TiVo Desktop Plus software that runs the TiVo server. This means that my laptop has to be continually running non-stop for files to transfer or for me to access them.
    I am looking for a way where TiVo will recognize the Iomega Home Network Server just as it recognizes the other TiVo unit on my home network.  TiVo menus have a place for adding an app that is TiVo compatiable; however, I have not been able to find any.
    Can someone please help?  TiVo has advised me that there 3rd Party software out in tech world that is capable of running the Tivo Desktop Server better than the TiVo Desktop Server Plus program itself but I have been unable to locate it..
    Thanks

    Just had a look at this: http://www.ufsexplorer.com/inf_xfs_nas.php and decided it's more hassle than it's worth so going to restore my files the sloooowwww way. Anyone know a good way to sync data to the new drive?

  • Looking for an Image FTP server...

    We need to be able to do the following.
    1. Upload multiple files at once.
    2. Administrator can create password protected folders with either read/write or just read access.
    3. View thumbnails of images.
    4. The client must interface using a browser with no extensions installed.
    5. At least 20Gb of data space required.
    I've spent about a day looking for something with the above specs but as of yet, I havn't been able to find a service with exactly the same features above.
    Any ideas?

    Well, I left it vague because I didn't know if there was a solution like this that we could host on our own server or if this is only found on a "file hosting server."
    I'm open to a professional hosting solution...I just don't know of any.
    On the other hand, I suspect that there's a solution (Joomla?) that might have this functionality but I just haven't experimented with these open source solutions enough to know.
    FTP is not required.
    Our clients need to be able to access about 20GB worth of images. We have servers we can put these images on but we don't have the snappy web interface that would allow the client to view and download. Of course we'd need to then enforce rules for different clients in a variety of folders.
    The clients may need only 1 or all of the images.
    So far we've been giving our clients access to our ftp but that's rather messy and if they aren't comfortable installing or using an ftp client, they run into problems. They usually try to download things using windows explorer but using this is inconsistent and if they have no technical savy, they get confused and call our Sales Department. Sales then calls me and asks why I can't make it easier.
    In other words, they want the client to be able to view thumbnails of images that are available (something like Flickr).
    They want to be able to download large versions of those images.
    They want the interface to be web-based with no install
    I would be looking for a solution that offers multiple file uploads/downloads...
    Some of our clients need to upload so I would need to give some users write access (web-based) to unique folders/user.
    While other clients just need to get images; these wouldn't need write access.
    I've spent a day and a half looking on the web for a solution and can't seem to find exactly what I want. Any help on this is welcome.

  • Why is my wifi looking for a network all the time after working fine for over a year?

    My wifi is connected but it's running slow, it drops completely, netflix runs so slow than it drops..etc. I've had the cable people here twice, once I updated my speed to more than doubled my speed and then I bought a very expensive router. Why does my computer wifi keep looking for networks when its already connected? Also, I've notice that my computer is acting like I've had it for 10 years and I've only had for 1.5 yrs. It's slow! It crashes! I have to sign in twice! It takes for ever to load, then it falls asleep after only a few mins even when its plugged in with full power. I'm so sick of this mac! I'm ready to run over it with my mini van and go back to HP for good!
    Oh and the screen is unstable! willy nilly all over the place!

  • OSX LION SERVER on Mac Mini for a home media server?

    Would a Mac Mini with Mac OS X Lion Server be a good alternative for a home multi media movie server?
    Has anyone done this?
    If so please give advice or success stories vs. HP Home Media Smart Server (i added a link to the HP server)
    http://www.hp.com/canada/products/landing/mediasmart/ex.html
    I would really rather use a Mac product but not sure what Apple offers and  if it will do the same or better than the HP Media Smart Server.
    Again, any advice would be great.
    Cheers,

    It would make a great server. Bonus over Apple TV for example is that you have access via both wired ethernet and wireless. Plus if you load tools from XBMC, Firecore and others you have a significant media server. Cost is right too.
    Many people are doing this - google mac mini media server or other for more info.
    Total downside to any windows based system - dealing with constant anti-virus, major security hassels, lack of true media integration and PITA to update, etc.
    You should be aware that Lion Server is not ready for prime time - it stil has significant issues if you are migrating from SNL 10.6.8. If you buy an apple fresh Lion Server mac mini you should have no problems.
    You'll probably be pleased.

    1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved. Make sure the box marked

    2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
    3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
    4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
    5. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
    6. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
    7. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
    8. Reset the System Management Controller.
    9. Reset the PRAM.
    10. Reinstall OS X.
    Updating to 10.9.2 did the trick. So I thought. Does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks!

  • What to delete for a barbones media server for the new ATV...

    I am buying one of the new ATVs and own a laptop, so I am "borrowing" my parents' old iMac PPC running 10.5.7. There isn't a whole lot of room on the hard drvie so I am wondering what I can delete that will give me the most bang for my buck. Language stuff, printer drivers, etc.
    I have gotten rid of the obvious stuff like an old iPhoto library, itunes library, documents, etc. I am now looking for additional stuff to dump. Thanks!

    have you considered getting an external HD to move the iTunes library to ?

  • Help me step by step for using Flash Media Server!

    Dear all!
    With reference to advertisement/introduction of in website (http://www.adobe.com/ ), I am writing to you to request some things bellows:
    My company would like build video streaming application on Website (and mobile in future), maybe something likes http://youtube.com . It is streaming: films, video clips with the different sizes which are stored in folder of server with high quality, powerful, secure, extendable, high-performance, highly scalable, and custom video solutions. After I went through the Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 of Adobe I see that it seem usefully with the streaming video application of my company. So that, before my company purchases the Flash Media Interactive 3.5 software we would like use trial the Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 software with full features, unlimited the end users, and full functions in few months. And  we hope you provide full Flash Media Interactive 3.5 software and guide clearly, more details and more focus for “how to use the Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 for matching with our application” during use trial. If we see this software which displays well the streaming video application and it matches with our application so that we will purchase this software immediately.
    Addition, did we have the encoder (video, film) software when we purchase full Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5? Because, I know that adobe media encoder CS4 supports for encoding video/film to FLV/F4V, but it is different software and do not package with Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 software. And do you have software to encode automatically video/film like flash media live encoder? Because I think that there are some troubles to use adobe media encoder CS4 for encoding video/film such as: sequential, so slow, non-auto encoding and occupies 100% CPU performance.
    Finally, adobe flash player 10 in Flash Media Interactive 3.5 has HD (+,-) feature. But I do not know to use it? Could you tell us more?
    Please give me your hotmail for chatting and reply us early!
    Thank for your prompt help!
    Sincerely,
    Thao Nguyen Thi,
    Online application Center
    Vietnam Data Communication Company – Center II (VDC2).
    Email: [email protected]

    Hi Thao Nguyen Thi,
    You could download the Flash Media Development Server for free which provides the complete feature set. The only limitation is on the number of connects (allows only 10). But you could use that to try out a scaled down deployment which might give you an idea on what factors to consider while scaling up while allowing you to try out the streaming aspects.
    There is also this helpful document http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/articles/fmis_largescale_deploy.html which gives a lot of useful information while going about the deployment.
    From what you say you seem to be interested to know the deployment of Video on Demand (VOD) streams.
    Thanks
    Mamata
