Necessary to have Toslink for Apple TV?

I'm planning to get the 2nd Gen Apple TV but I came across something called the Toslink cable and did some reading online though but ain't sure is it necessary to have for Apple TV? Any advise? Will it affect the sound output as in no sound? Thanks

What's receiver? Can I have it directly to tv via hdmi?
Toslink gives separate audio out over optical fibre for people who connect AppleTV via HDMI to the TV rather than to an AV amp/receiver - they can run HDMI to the TV and have sound/audio there, but can also run optical to the hi-fi/surround system to get better stereo or surround sound.
If you have an amp/reciever capable of HDMI input you probably don't need optical, but older ones won't have it.

  • I had to uninstall my itunes because it said a file was missing, now i am unalble to reinstall because it says I do not have permission for Apple Mobile device? Any ideas

    during my last update I got an error message saying my apple mobile device did not have permissions. I also had a message about a missing file. I tried repairing in the control panel and I then uninstalled my itunes then tried to reinstall it to fix the missing file. I am unable to reinstall on( my hp computer) because I keep getting the apple mobile device cannot download message. I have had itunes for several years without a problem. Any ideas????

    it wont install because it says the network resourse im trying to use is unavailable
    Which particular .msi file (or files) does the message (or messages) go on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

  • Is it necessary to have 64GB for the iPad with Retina display.

    I am interested in getting the iPad with Retina Display.  I wonder if 32GB is enough, on the iPad 1st generation 16 GB was fine, but with double the resolution I wonder if I should double the size. 
    Is it worth getting the Retina Display?
    Thanks for your input

    The higher resolution is hardly the overwhelming factor that contributes to reduction of storage capacity on the iPad. It is the number of apps, movies, TV Shows and things like that that take up the storage.
    I have a 64GB iPad 3 with 170 apps, 2 HD movies, a couple of TV shows, 900 + photos, about 350 songs, several magazines in Newsstand and I have used about 21GB of the storage on the device.
    IMO - the retina display is spectacular and well worth it.

    Try the suggestion in this link. Although it's addressed for Windows XP systems, it may work on Vista too. If that does not work out, you might want to get in touch with support for further assistance.

  • IWeb '08 (2.0) Constructive Ideas For Apple?...

    In an effort to be more constructive, I suggest these two things as a better way to bring old content into iWeb '08. If you have suggestions for Apple concerning the performance of, or issues with, iWeb '08 (2.0) post them here. Maybe we can think of some things they didn't...
    Maybe Apple could do a download from site recovery/update tool/option? After the Domain file is corrupted, and if there is no backup, allow the user to download their previous work from their .Mac website into the Domain file.
    Why not just use the contents of the Sites folder on the users iDisk to update the new Domain file instead of relying on the cluttered, bloated old Domain file? It's just web pages, scripts and elements...
    Hey Apple! Listening?!? The above ideas are yours to have free of charge!!! Please just make iWeb 2.0 work for everyone! Please...
    Sincerely,
    An iWeb '08 Mass Distribution Beta Tester?

    Apple will "listen" to your feedback via this form...

    The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x

    Do this first...
    Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...

    If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

    After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...
    Next...
    Upgrade to Mountain Lion
    With Regard to ML...  Check here for compatibility of 3rd party Software you may be using... Also note that Rosetta is no longer supported in Lion and Mountain Lion...

    You should also consider more RAM... Get the Maximum you can for your Mac...

  • I just wanna know if it is necessary to have a wifi connection to stream from Ipad to apple tv?

    If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)

  • What fonts are necessary for Apple email?

    I use Extensis Fusion 6 for font management and was shuffling some things for around for best practices. Anyhow, I've removed a font(s) that are specifically required for Apple email to run properly. They haven't been trashed, just moved (temporarily) to the desktop.
    Now, I'm not able to use my email. It opens, but crashes shortly after opening. I'm wondering if anyone knows what the required fonts are for email to run properly. I've likely removed an Apple typestyle that is required.
    I can use gmail and am able to go onto the web in a variety of browsers. The issue is just with Apple email and it occurred after I moved the fonts out.
    I'm currently reading my email on my laptop and forwarding any required files to my desktop via gmail. But this isn't very efficient.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for your quick reply. Yes, I know that replacing the fonts back into the folder would be the easiest thing to do. Seeing as how I have many, many fonts I would prefer only to replace the necessary ones. IF there is a list somewhere on the Apple site that people are aware of which identifies the necessary fonts for Apple mail, I would prefer to drop only those ones back into the folder.
    To be honest, I think the removal of Marker Felt is causing the issue. It may be that I drop the typestyles back in one at a time. But again, if a list is out there?
    Thanks again.

  • HT2589 We have purchase 5 apple minis and would like them all on one account.  That way we can monitor the use of these units.  they will be used strickly for a business application.  can I use one account in itunes or must i have multiple.

    Not going to happen the way you want it to.
    When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
    Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.
