  • Multiple Apple TVs in one house but one computer

    I just bought a second Apple TV for my house and only have one computer whose iTunes Library I would like to sync to both Apple TVs. But I don't see the second Apple TV in the device list. Just the first one. The new one does appear in the speaker pull down list on the lower right corner of iTunes and I can even use it as an external speaker for my iTunes library, but it has never appeared in the device list. Is there a limitation that only one Apple TV can sync to a library.
    All software is up to date, I've restarted everything several time, and nothing works. I've also unplugged the old one and still iTunes can't see the new one. Ideas?

    that won't provide syncing though (as it's a shared library). ??

  • Multiple Apple TVs with one iTunes Library

    I have searched this subject and found one thread that touches on the topic. It says that I should be able to "connect" five Apple TVs to my single iTunes library. I have on original Apple TV that connects to my iTunes library just fine. I just purchased a second ATV for my bedroom. It will go thru the setup process easily and will connect to the iTunes music store. When I browse the "My Movies" menu item it will show me all the movies that I converted with Handbrake from my DVD collection but none of the purchased content from the iTunes Store. When I browse the "My TV Shows" menu item I get a message that my iTunes library contains no content. (my TV shows library contains only content purchased from the iTunes store). This scenario only occurs if I connect to the iTunes library as a primary connection that allows syncing. If I add the iTunes library as a "shared library" I am able to see and stream ALL of the content from my iTunes library.
    Will an iTunes library only connect and sync with ONE ATV and do all secondary ATVs need to "share"?
    As a side note.....when I noticed this problem I thought there was a hardware problem with the ATV so I took it back to the apple store. When we connected it to their media library it gave the same message that "there was no content in the iTunes library". It would however successfully share as a streaming only connection. I was given a new ATV but the same problem as described above continues.

    It has been properly set up. I even purchased a TV show and a movie with it from the iTunes store that would play while still in the download phase but once the video was downloaded and synced back to my iTunes library it was no longer visible from the ATV.

  • Multiple apple tvs to one iTunes and iMac

    I installed  10 apple tvs in my office all linked to 1 iMac.
    I just found out that I can only access the iTunes on only 5 of the apple tvs.
    Is there a way to access all ten from one iMac using 2 iTunes accounts at the same time?. and how canister de authorize some of the apple tvs from the iTunes account ?

    Apple tv's always sync through itunes. you can either transfer content to a computer that you would have at each residence or sync content in Saskatoon and then move the apple tv to each residence. you could not add to the connect if you usually buy through itunes, but if you buy content on the apple tv itself then it should pose no problem, however if you buy content on the apple tv it will only be on that individual apple tv.

  • Syncing multiple Apple TVs on one account

    Hey All!
                I am considering getting two more Apple TVs for my house; one for the living room and one for my parents room.  I currently have an iPad, an iPod, an Apple TV, and one computer.  Can this be done?

  • Multiple Apple TVs to one Itunes

    We love our Apple TV and now that we can get movies in Canada, we are addicted. We have three homes. Our primary residence is in Saskatoon Canada and that is where we have our computer (DELL/Vista) with Itunes and an Apple TV. We also have a cottage 30 minutes outside of Saskatoon and my wife has recently purchased a Condo in Honolulu. If we were to buy Apple TVs for our cottage and our condo, is there any way to sync the movies, music, pictures we have on our Itunes in Saskatoon to these Apple TVs at our cottage and condo?
    Thx
    Ronn

  • I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same fam

    I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same family.

    Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
    A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
    Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
    Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice.

    Did they both show up before?

  • Audio problem with one episode of iTunes tv show on two apple tvs but audio works fine on same show on iMac

    I have a season pass to Dr Who and all 30+ other shows purchased on iTunes work great. Last night's episode (Hide) has a hissing sound so loud it drowns out all the audio in the show when i try to watch it on my Apple TV.  I then downloaded the episode to my iMac and my iPad and no audio issues there. However when I tried playing it shared from my iMac to the Apple TV and the audio problem was there again. Same thing happened when I tried to AirPlay from my iPad to Apple TV.
    I have two Apple TVs. One is latest model w latest upgrade, the other is generation before without latest upgrade. Same audio issue on both. I have tons of iTunes TV shows and movies and this is the only episode with an issue. Something is wrong with this file that causes it to screws up the audio on Apple TV.
    Has anyone else seen this kind of audio issue specific to just one TV episode or movie?  Anyone know support path for iTunes problems?

    If other episodes play Dolby Digital fine this could be a file encoding problem - they sometimes get it wrong.
    I suggest you all contact Apple about the problem via itunes store support here:

  • Multiple Apple TVs on the same network

    I teach at a school and have used an Apple TV in conjunction with my iPad for presentations. I find it invaluable. Other teachers at my school would like to do the same, but I'm told by our tech support that multiple Apple TVs on the same network cause problems. When I ask them what problems, they aren't sure. They just tell me that other school have experienced problems. Other than a wifi bandwidth problem, I can't imagine what kind of problem it would be. A collegue of mine wants to jump onboard but desn't want to make waves. Does anyone know of any problems?

    I have two Apple TV's, one in the living room and one in the bedroom... however, the living room is the only one that my iphone Remote APP is connecting with... I've named/tagged the two ATV's hoping that the Remote APP would provide me the option on which one to control, but it doesn't....
    I've confirmed that home sharing is "on" with in all devices "settings"...
    Any suggestions?

  • How to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with one iTunes account

    We recently received iPad 2's for Christmas and was looking for some advice on how to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with One iTunes Account (Apple Id).  I have created or attached other e-mail addresses to our apple id but do not know how to use them on the new devices.  Our home MacBook Pro uses our main apple id for FaceTime.  The iPads have been setup with the main apple id w/o being able to use FaceTime and iMessage.
    Please Help...
    I appreciate the help and support.

    P and V-
    If you are trying to connect to someone with a different Apple ID, I think all the devices should work, but one at a time.
    The problem is when you try to connect between two with the same Apple ID.  Once the calling device tries to make the connection, it finds the second device to be "busy".  That is where each needs to use a different E-Mail address when setting it up.
    On iOS devices, when you press the Home button to exit an App, the App may still be active in the background, even when the device is sleeping.  If FaceTime or iMessage is merely being active that way, it may be enough to "tie up" the E-Mail address.
    From the Home screen, double click your Home button.  You will see a list of recent Apps along the bottom of the screen.  Press and hold on one of them until they start to wiggle.  You will then see a red minus sign on each.  Pressing the minus sign will remove an App from the list, and stop it from working in the background.  (Click the Home button to stop the wiggling, and again to hide the recent Apps.)

  • Multiple Apple TVs - affect on school broadband

    Hello, I am new to this forum. The school I support now has several Ipads and Apple TVs and the number is growing. Does any one know what impact this may have on broadband. Does using multiple Apple Tvs affect speed etc? Any information re any technical issues of using Apple TV in school would be much appreciated.

    Yes, internal use (iPad to Apple TV) will not affect brodband connectivity.
    The signal from iPad needs to go to WiFi router (or access point) and then back to Apple TV. So it is a bit over kill in busy environments. To easy the WiFi traffic it is advisable to wire Apple TV via ethernet port - this hat to be on the same LAN (VLAN) as the WiFi network.
    Let me know if you have more questions.

  • Two Apple TVs. One going, the other not. Why?

    I have 2 Apple TVs. One 720 the other 1080. The 720 is working fine and will operate at either TV.
    The 1080 will not work at either TV.
    I go to set it up and I get all the screens including passwords, itunes account etc, but cannot get on to my network.
    The DNS.Router, Password etc settings are identical on both Apple TVs.
    I tried all avenues using my wi fi connected to my Apple TVs, to no avail.
    Trouble shooting from Apple and from Forums I have followed all the advice.
    Currently I am downloading as per instructions from my Mac Book Pro via micro USB.
    It has been running for two hours or more, still shows another 13 hours to run. BTW I do have ADSL 2 Broadband which is usually quite fast for anything else to download.
    Several times I have done this as after several hours it pops up the message "Cannot Contact Server at this time".
    So I start again.
    Also going through the check list from the iTunes Help  on the tool bar, I am getting a message "Take to Apple for Service".
    My guess is that the Apple TV is faulty and needs to be either replaced or serviced.
    Alhough I do not know how this could be done as it seems to be a solid "puck" like device and completly sealed.
    My 720 Apple TV has been performing without fault since new, I can upgrade my iTunes each time a new one comes out (the latest one is installed) or a new IOS from Apple is installed (currently IOS 10.8.2 Mountin Lion).
    Apple TV is a great add on for my computer and home entertainment, but I am sick of wasting my time trying to work through this glitch...

    Thanks for the response - I'm on Mac OS 10.4.11 I did rename my Apple TVs - so the names are different.
    Also, sometimes my second Apple TV isn't showing on my iTunes either. This is very frustrating!
    I'm also on a dual 2.3 GHZ PowerPC G5 (not an intel version). iTunes software version 7.6.2 (9)
