Mac won't stram media to ipad, xbox- though it used to

Hi there.
My first post here!
So, I did a clean install to my macbook pro a few days ago, running Lion. All is great, apart from the fact that I'm no longer able to stream media to my xbox or my ipad. I used Connect360 to stream stuff to my xbox before and it previously worked great and I used the boxee app on the ipad and boxee manager on the mac and that was working super too. But not since I reinstalled Lion.
Same applies to the Air Play app for ipad- all looks ok, appart from the fact that my mac doesn't appear on the app.
Basically, it all looks ok on the mac but the other devices don't see it!
The only thing I thought might be wrong, was the Little Snitch application on the mac, but it doesn't look like it's blocking anything important- and I tried quitting it, but that didn't work either.
Any ideas?

That's what I thought. That's not an error on the disk. Those are just messages created by developers and can be ignored.
What I can't figure out is how you went from repairing permissions to not being able to boot passed the gray screen...
Can you boot from your install disk and check the hard disk just in case?
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window where you see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is always 15% free disk space. Not enough disk space can cause directory corruption.

  • I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad.  Can I use the iPad as a monitor and keyboard for the Mac mini, either through the USB connection or thru Wi-Fi?

    I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad.  Can I use the iPad as a keyboard and screen for the Mac mini, using either the USB connector or Wi-Fi?

    I'm sorry, I should have said thru Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi.  I want to use the mini as a base station and the iPad like a laptop that I can sync when I'm home and carry with me when I travel.  Is is possible to hook these 2 up - iPad/mini, through Bluetooth?  I understand I need to use a regular monitor/keyboard/mouse on the initial install.

    They will replace it with a refurb of like kind if the problem is deemed to be hardware related and not caused by misue. They will probably try restoring the device and troubleshoot it on their own before they replace it for you .... And I'm talking about an Apple Store here.
    You should probably try this next.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

  • Mac won't open pages from iPad.

    I have emailed a pages document from my ipad, saved it on my mac and it wont open. It always has before the latest IOS version was installed on the ipad.
    It says i need a newer version and directs me to the app store.
    Software is all up to date on the Mac
    do i have to pay for a new version of pages? or should it be automatic to receive the new version so that the two are compatable?
    help please
    thanks

    As the system is not reporting any new software for my Mac pages, does this mean it won't be compatable with my iPad pages?
    And here is the kicker.... you need to update the whole Mac operating system first.
    You need to be running OSX 10.9, once you have downloaded this 'free' update, then you need to update pages to Pages 5.0
    Once this is done, then you can 'easily collaborate' with the iPad.
    What OS on the Mac are you running? (Check under the Apple drop down menu, then select "About this Mac")
    And What version of Pages are you using (Check under the Pages drop down menu, then select "About Pages")
    You need to be on OSX 10.9 and Pages 5.0
    Sadly Apple decided not to warn iPad users that they were taking collaboration away unless you update every Apple product in one go.

  • My Mac won't stop speaking the time even though I have turned it off. What can I do?

    I tried to turn off "Announce the time" in "Date & Time" preference pane in "System Preferences" on my Mac running 10.9.4. It is unchecked. Yet it is still speaking the time. What can I do to get it to stop? I have tried unchecking/checking closing System Preferences many times to no avail; it just keeps announcing the time. Any ideas?

    Have you tried a restart?

  • I installed OS Lion on my late 2009 Macbook and now I am having issues with WiFi.  When my computer goes to sleep my mac won't recognize my WiFi and I need to use the network assistant EVERYTIME to get on the internet.

    Very frustrated as my Macbook has been freezing a lot especially when streaming video online or sometimes just by being on a website with a lot of flash.  I've updated all my software and I have 4 gigs of ram.  I do have most of my 250 gig hard drive used up....coud this be an issue?

  • HT1918 Won't accept my Apple ID, even though I used it last night on iTunes, anyone else having this problem

    I'm trying to buy a video and I keep getting a message that says, "This Apple ID cannot be used for the iTunes Store." Anyone else having this problem? I just bought a movie last night without any problem.

    I am having the same problem. You are only able to purchased when you first open Itunes after the first purchase  the password and login details are no longer accepted by the itunes store. This has only happened after  I installed the latest Itunes (11.03 (42)) so I assume that it is a bug in the software that that corrupted something on my mac.
    On the bright side it means I do not give apple money

    For the update to run Aperture must be installed in the system Application folder and named simply Aperture, not Aperture3.2.2 or anything else.
    I don't know if this would also affect photo stream but if your Aperture is misnamed or installed in an incorrect location fixing that to see if it clears up the problem would be a good first step.

    Have an older 17 MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. Software update says everyting is current. Mac doesn't have iCloud, preferences still shows MobileMe. Just bought new iPhone 5S. Mac won't recognize phone, says I need newer version of iTunes. Have no problem with computer recognizing old phone 3 or 1-1/2 year old iPad. I suspect I need to update OS, but as software update isn't telling me to do so, can I? What version would I need to go to?

    Your MacBook Pro can be updated to run Mac OS X "Snow Leopard". Buy it. That will enable you to run the latest iTunes version.

  • I am having trouble transfering any media from my windows 7 pc to my iPad 3. Currently using the latest version of iTunes n my windows pc but still the media won't appear on my devicewhen being transferred..

    I am having trouble transfering any media from my windows 7 pc to my iPad 3. Currently using the latest version of iTunes n my windows pc but still the media won't appear on my devicewhen being transferred..

    The window would open and I would get the hourglass cursor suggesting something was happening, but the Apple home page (default from the install) would not load, nor would any other page I tried (google, yahoo, cnn).
    Even though it's about a different application, I'd try the following document with that:
    iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    (Safari uses the same webkit engine to render web pages as iTunes uses to render the Store pages. So an issue that can cause the iTunes Store to blank can also cause a Safari for Windows application on the same PC to produce blank pages.)

  • My mac won't recognize an external monitor. The screen Goes Blue Once, then goes blue again and the second monitor just turns off. I am using an HDMI adapter to a visio TV. I also have my xbox on the tv. Can anyone Help??

    Lol, figured out the first part. Just for those who may be searching, when you click on the Display Preferences, and click on the arraingment tab... it not only shows where your two screens will be displayed, but the WHITE BAR at the top of one screen is the dock/toolbar. Click and hold to grab this and just slide it over to the screen you'd like it to be on.
    You have to release it IN the screen box, not on top of it... and it should pop right over to the new (or old) screen. At any rate, you can put the dock on either (or any) screen that you prefer.
    I am thinking of ordering more of these. Lol. 3 monitor setup seems like it would be crazy good.
    Still looking for the answer to keeping the new 16" screen on the right without switching between screen #s with that... not expose... Lion feature.
    Thanks. Hope my other question has an answer out here.

    just hooked up airport extreme. works on mac but won't allow phone or iPad on. how do i get them to connect?

    How old are the various devices? It could be possible for you to have configured a very new AirPort Extreme in a way that older iPhones and iPads could not access. For example, could you have set up the Extreme to use only 801.11n and 5GHz?

    FaceTime & Messages now won't open on my iPad. Now no toggle switch in settings. Log in with my Apple ID sends activation error message 'try again'. Both Apps work on my iPhone & Mac.Any help?

    Adjusting the date or time didn't do anything for me either. I'm guessing my two options are to either do the full restore from scratch and not apply any backup ... Or possibly wait for an iOS update that might resolve this issue.
    I'm not that much of an avid twitter user that I need it implemented natively in all my devices - so for now I'll probably value all my game save data, internal settings in apps e.t.c. over that functionality (or over the amount of work it would be to get me back to where I am now after a full wipe). I'll see what happens after the next iOS delta update. I'll reevaluate the full wipe after that if the issue hasn't been resolved

  • Mac won't access hard drive. Media is there.

    All my media is located on an external hard drive. The location is G:/iTunes/iTunes music when accessed from my Dell PC. I now want to give my Mac Book (older one) access to my music and ditch the PC. When I connect the hard drive it comes up on the Mac labeled as "MyBook", which is what I named it. I open iTunes, hold down the option key till it says "Choose itunes library." So far, so good. I click Choose Library. However, when I navigate to the external drive under Devices, and locate the iTunes folder  I get an error message stating "The iTunes Libray.itl file is locked, on a locked disc, or you do not have write permission for this file."
    Just for for the heck of it, I literally dragged all my music and movies to iTunes manually from the hard drive and dropped them into iTunes. They all reinstalled into iTunes and played fine but were placed onto the Mac's hard drive. Now my Mac's drive is basically entirely full. Also, none of the movies or media will let me make any changes to titles, sorting, etc. It's like the files are locked. Also, none of my PDFs, apps, or other stuff transferred.
    I also tried doing the same thing from Preferences in iTunes. Went to preferences, Advanced and the "iTunes Media folder location" box says: /users/user/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media. I clicked "Change" and again navigated to My Book, iTunes.
    Now in the location window it says: /Volumes/My Book/iTunes
    I hit OK. It says updating iTunes library.
    Then it comes up with "Would you like iTunes to move and rename the files....."
    I've ve tried hitting both yes and no.
    Nothing happens after this point. iTunes just stays blank with no media in it.
    How do I get my Mac to access my media on the hard drive without having to load everything into the Macs internal drive the way it worked on my PC?
    Latest version of iTunes.
    2 TB hard drive.
    Mac OS X. V 10.7.5

    Do you only have media on the external or is your whole iTunes library there?  A complete iTunes library is the  library files, supporting files and folders, and media files.  Media files are just media files.  Hint: Easiest is if it is the whole thing and portable.  It can be relocated when it is not together but it may involve a lot more steps with varying degrees of success.
