Not from MBP/MBA

I am able to Airplay music videos and movies to the AppleTV using my iPad. It does not work with my MBP or MBA. I have the square indicator with an arrow inside. The TV shows, sometimes, a still picture from the video and a rotating circle as if it was downloading or something. Any ideas?

How to move iTunes files from MBP to MBA?

I have an older MPB (mid-2009) and an new MBA (late-2010). Planning on getting a new MBA after Mountain Lion comes out sometime in July.
That means moving files from the MPB and the MBA over to the new MBA at some point.
In preparation of that I want to get all my iTunes files onto the current MBA. Trouble is that I have used both the MBP & MBA to import music or videos as well as purchases into iTunes on both.
Without totally screwing things up what is the best way to get iTunes files (purchased or imported) from one Mac to the other without losing or corrupting things?
I already have a problem that there are movies on my iPhone4 that will not remove even though they are not checked when I sync.
How do you join iTunes from 2 Mac's? Do you have to deauthorise one?
Thanks for any help. I don't want to get things more confused than they already are.

99% of downloads are from my US iTunes account so those rules should apply. What I'm wondering now is the comment about only 2 downloads.
The entire process is in advance of a new MBA. I had thought it would be easier to get things moved from the MPB over to the MBA before I got the new MBA. Now it seems maybe I should wait it out, get the new MBA then moved things from both the MBP and older MBA over to the new laptop.
Because Apple does changes to machines I have the older MBP with an older external HD that matches its connections. (Things from the MPB include transfers from the old MacBook). Then I have the MBA with its external HD using a different connection because it only has a USB.
With the new MBA I'll have maybe a completely different external HD because its connections are Thunderbolt.
See where I'm headed with this?
It's the process of getting everything from the old MBP & external, the new MBA & external ... all moved over to the mid-2012 MBA & external. Included in all of that is a huge amount in information. Music along is over 400 GB. Think we all are going to have the same issue as the Mac's upgraade and change.

MBP & MBA

Needlless to say that I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer. In any case I have a problem. I instlled and activated my MBP and my MBA on iCloud. This causes me two problems as iCloud changes each time I turn on either unit.
How can I cancel everything on one of the units? Right now I get an erroe about password, when I bring the MBA unit up. I do not want to use the MBA with iCloud.
All comments are welcome.

How can I delete iCloud from my MBA? This is driving me crazy.

Can't print from MBP to HP DeskJet Cxi

I have a new MacBook Pro and an older but not much used HP DeskJet Cxi. I can print from my old PowerBookk G4 but not from my MBP. Apple says HP doesn't offer a driver; HP says Apple doesn't offer a driver. Is there any way to use this printer with my MBP?

That's very strange. See if clearing the cache in Safari will make it work. I'll include the steps below. If that doesn't help, install a different browser, such as Opera, to see if that will print from pages that Safari won't. If it will, then something is wrong with Safari. If it doesn't print, then the web pages might have printing blocked. There are sites that are doing that for copyright reasons. Let me know what you find.
To clear the cache on Safari:
Open Settings.
Select Safari
Touch Clear Cache.
Select Clear.
Touch Clear Cookies.
Select Clear.
Touch Clear History.
Select Clear.

Loud popping streaming music from MBP to airport express

Streaming iTunes – airport express (air tunes) – av amp
Macbook Pro (MBP leopard) (all software updates installed)
AirPort Express Base Station 802. 11n (firmware 7.3.2)
Hi all
I am having a problem when playing music over air-tunes, (optical out) every so often, irrespective of file type and continuously throughout the music being played, I get a very loud popping/cracking noise outputted through the speakers,
This noise is severe enough to be causing damage to my speakers, so is making air-tunes unusable.
I also have a Macbook (leopard up to date) that dose not have this problem, which suggests that its not a problem with airport but with my MBP.
Things I have already tried.
Direct optical connection from MBP to av-amp (music plays fine)
Reinstallation of OSX 10.5.5 (full install e.g. reformat)
Reset of express base station
Rollback firmware of base station to 7.3
Set wireless security to none from wpa2
Tried all possible radio modes
Problem persists over both wireless and wired (gigabit) network cards on MBP
All programs off during testing except iTunes
Tried switching off processes in network utility (have not spent a lot of time on this as not sure/confident as to which are critical system processes).
It seems to me as this is happening with both network cards that this is not a
network hardware problem on the MBP but maybe a background process on MBP is intermittently some how causing a spike of interference.
Also leopard is a resent upgrade, I can’t be sure but I don’t think this problem
happened when I had osx 10.4 installed, certainly when I first setup air-tunes
under 10.4 the problem was not there.
Am about all out of ideas, so I would be very grateful for any input on this.
Kind Regards
Drew…

Anybody out there any ideas???
or perhaps someone hear can point me in the right direction to get some technical support.
Regards,

Streaming from MBP to Samsung TV WITH EXTERNAL SPKRS --AUDIO ISSUE

Hel
Using the Mini-Display adapater, MINI Displayport TO HDMI ADAPTER, I have been able to stream live car race from MBP directly to my Samsung HD TV.
Streamed picture is wonderful. To get audio from the live stream to come thru the external speakers, I used an audio cable (3.5mm pin that plugs to the MBP, with the RCA jacks plugged into the component's (the receiver) audio out sockets), but still I not yield the desired result.
Yesterday, I purchased an AUVIO® 6-Ft.Optical Audio Toslink™ Cable . To test this new cable, I live streamed an ESPN2 program to the TV--I was pleased that the sound did come thru the external speakers. After a few mintues of ESPN2 streaming, I navigated to YouTube but lost the sound to the external speakers. To troubleshoot, I returned to ESPN2 again, for the live stream (thinking maybe YouTube has an issue). Unfortuantely, there was no sound to the external speakers. Why it had worked properly only moments before and not now? I turned everything off and started from the beginning. No luck.
I went thru the MBP tools, settings, preferences, etc. Is there a setting I have overlooked?
Any and all help is appreciated
Sincerely,
FMW

OK, so I've done a couple things here and both point to the above post about having two devices doing AirPlay at once.
First things first.... I ran the Inssider tool and looked over my network. My signal seems to always be between 50 and 60. My router is on Ch 6 which seems to be the best choice. There's one other network on that channel, but it's a very low signal strength. The other ends of the spectrum are pretty well covered by other networks.
Does this shed any light on this problem?
Second - I hard wired my MacBook to the router, then screen shared to the Apple TV. It was up for at least 15 minutes. At some point, I looked over and it was no longer sharing, but the network *WASN'T* trashed like it normally gets. So it possibly got dropped for some other reason.
Third - I forgot that I have an Apple Airport Express that I normally use to stream music to a radio in my garage. However, this device can be used as a router. So I set it up this way and created a 2nd network. I only put the Macbook and the Apple TV on it. I've been streaming continuously for about 35 minutes now with no issues.
So it would seem that there's a firmware issue with this router that won't allow one device to Airplay to another device. Does anyone else have any other conclusions or suggestions? Otherwise, looks like I'll be treating myself to some new hardware after Christmas.
Thanks very much for your help!

I have a MBPro mid 2013 with 1 Thunderbolt port. Just bought a Mac monitor and want to daisy chain a PC monitor to it. Use a Mini DVI to VGA adapter from MBP to PC monitor. How do I daisy chain the 2 monitors?

Hall Palm Desert,
if your Mac monitor has Thunderbolt ports, and the PC monitor is on the end of the daisy chain, then you might be able to do it by connecting your PC monitor’s VGA cable to a Mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter (e.g. Apple, NewerTech), connecting that cable’s Mini DisplayPort end to one of the Mac monitor’s Thunderbolt ports, and then connecting a Thunderbolt cable between the other port on the Mac monitor and your MacBook Pro.

How do I move Notes from one account to another?

When I upgraded to Lion and ios5, all my Notes were on my Mac, iPhone and iPad, having been synched via USB and iTunes in the past. Some of these notes have been around for quite a while.
Later, I edited a few notes and became aware that the chnages have not been synched to other devices. It turns out that somehow I have two acconts for notes on my ios devices - they are
From My Mac - all the rest
ICloud - 2 notes
It seems that changes I make to notes that are in the From My Mac account do not get synched to the Mac or my other device. How can I change the account for those in the From My Mac account to the iCloudl account?

Only notes in the iCloud account will sync with iCloud. In order to move notes from other accounts you have to open each one, copy/paste the test into new notes created in the iCloud account, then delete the original in the other account.

How can I transfer "notes" from one icloud account to another, and other account questions

Hey,
I currently have 2 icloud accounts. (In total I have 4 seperate apple ids somehow, 1 @me.com, 1 @icloud.com, 1 @gmail.com, and 1 apple id. But that's a problem I'll talk about later).
Right now, all of my notes got deleted from my iphone, but they are on the icloud account A: (@me.com account's icloud.) When I reconnect this account to my iphone, the notes are there. However, when I turn off note syncing in my iphone's icloud settings, I'm not prompted to "keep data on iphone" (like I am prompted with contacts). Instead, they are just deleted from the iphone. So there's no way to connect the icloud account A, download the data, and reconnect icloud account B.
How can I get these notes from icloud account A to icloud account B (or just getting it from icloud account A to my iphone.)
And while I'm at it, how can I get the @icloud account that was linked with the @me.com account to get linked to the @gmail.com account.
Sorry if this is confusing.

Let me rephrase my comment... I used Windows to sync my data without icloud, we decided to switch to mac and purchased a $2000 osx driven machine only to find out apple has "secretly" disabled mobile sync services and replaced it with icloud syncing. There was NO documentation stating this fact before my purchase, it was only realized when users started running into syncing issues that apple disclosed mavericks no longers uses mobile syncing services and "requires you to use icloud to sync device information" on this forum.
They removed a integral part of my privacy without telling me, or warning me, before i spent money on non-refundable merchandice.
These are not mindless, I was forced into mavericks when i purchased a new mac... All other versions of OSX provide modile syncing services.
And I was not threatening lawsuit, i was stating a thought that this leavs apple open to a lawsuit for people who want their data kept private, they are FORCING the use of icloud now.

Strange issue in ListBox - Showing the 'id' contents and not from 'Values'.

Hi,
I have created a custom table control that looks exactly like in 'Partner Tab' of Sales Order. It has Partner type, Partner, Name etc columns. For 'Partner type' column, I am calling function module 'VRM_SET_VALUES' so it shows as 'Sold-to party' , Ship-to Party' instead of SP, WE etc. This works fine.
However, before I display this table control, in PBO, I am populating Partner Type and partner # and passing it to table control columns. It should show like 'Sold-To party' in 'Partner type' column and '0000014' in 'Partner' column. I see Partner # populated correctly, however, instead of showing 'Sold-To party' in 'Partner type' column , it is showing like SP, which is the 'id' value from function module 'VRM_SET_VALUES' . What should I do so it shows the description(content from 'Values' and
not from 'id' ) ?
Niranjan

Thanks for the response.
I had tried converting to text and pass from Internal table to Table control on screen in PBO, however, the width of the column is only 2 characters, so it will display just 2 characters text.
I am wondering how SAP is able to code to show TEXT in 'Partner tab' in Sales Order. I have pasted the contents below from 'Partner tab' of sales order. I debugged the code in program SAPLV09C and screen 1000 and somehow they are populating the text as shown in 'PARTNER FUNCTION' below instead of codes like SH, SP. If I press F1 on field, I see SDPARTNERLIST-PARVW as the field name and the width is 2 characters.

HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop

HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop. I get an error stating "unable to communicate with printer"

Hi Melatina66,
Welcome to the HP Support forums. I understand that when trying to print from your laptop that you get a communication error message.
To better assist you, would you please provide some further information:
1)       How is the printer connected (USB cable, ethernet or wireless)?
2)      When you installed the printer on your laptop did you set it up with a USB cable? If yes, did you switch the connection type on the laptop from USB cable to ethernet/wireless?
3)      What version of Windows operating system are you running on the laptop (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8, etc)?
4)      When printing from your iPhone are you using Apple's AirPrint or HP's ePrint app?
Thank you.

Selective Deletion from Infocube Only (Not from Aggregates)

Hi,
For the Selective Deletion, i used the FM 'RSDRD_SEL_DELETION' in program. But this FM deletes the data first from Infocube then from aggregate.Because of this, deletion took more time to delete and adjust the Aggregate.
I need an way in which i can delete the data from Infocube only and after i reach to my reconcile period then i will deactivate and actiavted the aggregate, so the data will be consistent in Infocube and aggregate.
is there any to Delete(Selective Deletion) the data only from the Infocube not from its aggregate (for the Performance Point of View)?
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Himanshu.

Hi
You can try manual selective deletion which will delete data from cube only. check out the below thread.
steps fro selective deletion for cubes and ODS
If you want to delete data from FM only, then try to deactivate your aggregates before you start your selective deletion.
Once deletion is done, you can reload the aggregates

Delete contacts from icloud, but not from iphone

I want to delete all my contacts and calendar appointments from iCloud, but not from my iphone, and i still want to have iCloud turned on in the future.
I have tried to delete the iCloud account from my iphone but when i log in to iCloud.com from a computer the contacts are still there even though i deleted the iCloud account.
How do i remove these things only from iCloud?

I fixed it, i had to turn off the syncing of the contacts and the calendar on the phone and then delete them from iCloud. Obviously if i turn on the syncing of these items again the contacts and calendar appointments will reappear in iCloud.
So problem solved.

I need to delete files from my iMac hard drive, but not from my other devices (that are sync. to iCloud). How do I do this?? My Mac is a 24-inch Mid 2007 running on Mountain Lion. Thanks for your help.

I have recently recieved messages indicating that my start up disc is almost full. Consequently I need to remove some files from my hard drive. I've backed up my hard drive onto a NAS system & onto an external harddrive. The problem now, is that whenever I try to delete a file, a message comes up saying that if I remove this file from my hard disc it will remove it from all my other devices that are syn. to it. How do I remove a file (movies) from my iMac but not from other devices.
Thanks for your help
Robert

You're right - this question has nothing to do with iSync!
You're best bet would be to buy yourself an external Firewire or USB 2.0 hard-disk. There's no way you'll get 150gb onto an 80gb drive - certainly not in an instantly accessible way.
Your new Mac would've had the Migration Assistant appear during the initial OS install. This allows you to connect your new and old Mac together via a Firewire cable and automatically transfer your important files from old Mac to new.
Once you've all the files off your old Mac, re-format it and re-install the OS that came with it. If you boot up the Mac from the OS install DVD, there is an option to re-format the HD and install the OS.
