Movies Left on Apple TV - how to delete some but not all.
hello, I recently purchased an apple tv that had a 750gb hd installed, I use it for boxee usage and using Nito TV to watch avi files ahtt I ftp to the unit and watch. When I purchased the past user left about 100 older movies on it...
1. I have not sync'd with my IMAC itunes but want to delete several of the movies but leave some of them on it.
2. Is there anyway I can delete some (I found the mp4 files on the \mnt\Media\"f folders" on the unit but
3. aside from viewing those via preview and being able to determine which movie is which then delete, is there a way to then remove the "movie info" from the "my movies" after deleting one of these files ?
thanks for any replies in advance....

you bought a hacked modified appletv, and as such you cannot expect to get support from an official apple forum for it.
the only advice i can suggest to you is to factory restore the appletv to return it back to official supported software.

I reinstalled my computer's operating system. How do I transfer music from my Ipod to my music library? It transfered some, but not all my music. I authorized the computer, but it did not help.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases.
The ipod is not a backup device.
You need to copy everything back using your backup copy. -
The send buttin is greyed out when I try to text some but not all people from my iPod Touch. This happens even when they have iPhone 4s. Any ideas why and how I can fix this?
This issue can be caused by the McAfee SiteAdvisor extension.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

My iPhone 5 has lost some, but not all messages. How do I retrieve them?
My iPhone5 has lost some, but not all messages. How can I retrieve them? I did try to reset, but it did not work.
An iPhone cannot "dump" or "lose" those features.
They can be turned off in Settings > General > Restrictions or blocked by an Exchange Admin when an Exchange profile is loaded. -

I have 1 itunes account, 2 iphones- want to share some but not all media- how?
iPhone is SO easy to use, but this in iTunes has me stumped. My husband won't sync his phone because he doesn't want ALL of my apps, contact info, music, etc. But SOME of the apps and music we do want to share... from what I understand I can do this with separate libraries, but is that just for music? Would I set up "his," 'hers" and "both" libraries? How can I set this up so that when he syncs or updates, he only gets the ones he wants/already has on his iphone? Sorry for the dumb question, but I appreciate any advice!
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Photostream doesn't use up your allocated iCloud space, it only adds photos that were taken after photostream was activated, older photos will need to be added manually. It only keeps photos for 30 days up to a limit of 1,000.
Back ups are best done through iTunes.
Your best strategy would be to have photo stream on your Mac automatically import photo's from photostream, that way they are saved to your iPhoto library and can be synced to any of your devices at any time, long after the 30 day/1,000 photo limit has passed. -
Not much more to add other than it is quite frustrating. It's forcing me to move my bookmarks over to Safari. Essentially, when I am on a website, and I try to access secondary information, Firefox crashes.
...to add insult to injury, it crashed when I tried to validate my Firefox account. I had to go to Safari to do this!!!

Since I have a new iMac and now use Mountain Lion, I am observing that TV shows purchased in iTunes sometimes download in a Quicktime format that will not open in iTunes. In some but not all cases, I right click "open in" and select iTunes and then it will play. However, this doesn't always work. When I open in Quicktime and try to export to iTunes, that won't work. When I try Wundershare's Video conversation program, it won't even accept the file. What's going on here? Any ideas? Please reply [email protected] with any suggestions.
KathyThanks for the help Ricky.
I did put my iPod into DFU and iTunes recognized it in restore mode. After restore I am back where I was before - iTunes cannot connect because of an unknown error.
I have installed Jailbreak to see if I can bypass itunes but haven't succeeded. I can't get my computer to recopgnize the iPod as a device.
I'll take it to a Genius bar next time I am in the area of one. Until then I'll probably continue to try hacks to get it connected.

How to clear some and not all recent calls?
Is it possible to clear just some of the recent calls in the list that the phone provides?

Yes. Really.
They likely did not miss it. They either have much more important priorities or simply chose not to provide it. -
2 different iphones have the same Apple ID, how can I change the apple ID on one of them but not delete the other iphone's data and media?
You don't have to do anything with the first iPod that you don't use anymore. If you are planning on keeping it, put in a drawer in your house and forget about it.
You don't need a second account to use with the new iPod. I use one Appl e ID and iTunes library for two iPods, and two iPad. I have different content on all four devices. You can select exactly what you want to sync to each device and it can be different content on all devices. -
Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on my computer but i cannot move them over to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help
well first make sure that when you click on the name of your iphone on the left hand side of itunes that you go to the app and music tab and check mark the sync apps and sync music. then try clicking apply in the bottom right hand corner. then if not try doing it again after going to prefrences in the top menu and going to devices tab and click reset sync history if that doesnt work with music try and drop and drag to the name of your iphone, lastly if that doesnt work you can try restoring from a backup from before you updated. it will keep the new software but put everything that was on your phone when you created the backup back onto your phone.

I am getting a lot of static when using Brookstone wireless headphones and watching movies on the Apple TV. I know it is not headphones, because they work fine when I switch it to cable TV, then the sound is clear with no static. Any suggestions? Which wireless headphones work best with the apple TV?
Ok so I've been doing more testing. It's all videos on the iTunes store. Anytime I try to download a podcast or stream it or anything it's super slow. To download an episode of Diggnation it tells me over 2 hours to download but the time keeps climbing and I just stop the transfer.
Some people said it's an Open DNS thing? Maybe it is but it's not computer specific and I couldn't find a way to change the DNS settings in my Airport, only on each computer. I tried deleting PLists and restoring my Apple TV and restoring my Airport and nothing is working.
I don't know if it an issue with me, my ISP or Apple. Anyone else experiencing this problem? -

How to delete some date in target table at a mapping?
I extract date from source tabel into target table,
but before extract date I want to delete some date from target?
how to do?Just to change a bit of terminology in the reply, within the mapping, click on operator properties and choose TRUNCATE/INSERT.
Note that truncate is dependent on constraints, so you probably must disable those before doing this. You can of course do DELETE/INSERT...

On your iPhone 4S/5 or iPad 2 or 3, double-click the Home Button to view your recently-used apps.
Swipe all the way to the right to until you see the icon.
Note: If the icon does not appear, go to the "If AirPlay Mirroring is not visible or available on your mobile iOS device" section.
Tap the icon to see the list of available AirPlay devices.
Enable AirPlay Mirroring in this menu by tapping on an available Apple TV, then sliding the Mirroring slider to ON.
