Only Summary & Photo Tabs under the Apple T.V Devices, Help!

Hi to all,
from itunes main page when I select Apple TV from the column on the left hand side of the page under DEVICES, I only have 2 tabs! 1 is for 'summary' of apple tv which only shows Name, Capacity, Software Version and serial number at the top of the page and nothing else, as previously it showed more information than this, and the 2nd tab is for 'Photos'.
Apple TV also keeps disconnecting itself from itunes off my laptop.
I have new music on itunes but it will not stream to Apple TV
I know I have a temporary connection between the two devices as I can mess around the the photo settings.
Please can anyone help me out.
Thanks Lance Murdoch

you linked the appletv to itunes wrong.
2 tabs mean you have connected as a shared library only - which only provides streaming options.
remove the link and add this time as a primary connection, this will give you all the tabs and syncing options.

  • HT4236 i cant find the photo tab under the ipad at the left side

    i edit the pic in ulbums.
    now i want to move my albums to the pc.
    i read the support answer about it but i cant find  the photo tab on the left side under the ipad device.
    thanks

    It doesn't appear on the left-hand side, a Photos tab appears on the right-hand side of your computer's iTunes when you've selected the iPad 'device' on the left-hand side - but that is only used to copy photos to the iPad, not to copy them off.
    To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page -  on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard

  • No Photo tab under source list for 3rd generation ipod nano

    I have a 2nd generation ipod nano and recently purchased a 3rd generation ipod nano. I have the latest version of itunes, however, there is no photo tab under the source list. How am I supposed to import my photos?

    I am a brand new ipod user and I have not been able to find the summary, music videos and photos tabs. I have gone into every tab up on the Itunes tool bar and poked around but still can't find it. No such page opens up when I connect the nano. Can someone please help?
    Thanks in advance.

  • I have a MacBook pro. When I turn it on all I get is a grey screen with a small grey spinning thing under the apple. What can I do?

    Reinstall OS X.
    Reinstall Snow Leopard without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    ====================================
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is

  • Small white square appears after using "Preferences" under the Apple sign. It is on top of approx 3 app tabs which cannot be used.

    Using Mac version of FF ver 4. A small white rectangle appears under the Apple sign covering 3 app tabs after selecting and using Preferences. The rectangle is on top of the tabs so the tabs cannot be selected.

    If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them.  Let them deal w/it.

  • Devices ATV Listed, but Only Summary & Sync Tabs

    Hi, I have all my music/movies on my Apple TV from several months back.
    The ATV functions properly from the ATV.
    Now iTunes DEVICES lists my ATV, but only Summary and Photo tabs are shown.
    Cancel and Apply are grayed out.
    When I control-click on the TV under devices in iTunes is just reads "Turn Off Streaming".
    iTunes Preferences SHARING has "Share entire library" checked.
    tv< Settings> Computers does not show a 'connect to iTunes' option.
    It does show my correct Name Library with a locked icon, and another same Name Library live below "Add Shared iTunes Library".
    tv< Settings> Computers> Add Shared iTunes Library> "Connect to iTunes" option gives me five numbers to enter in iTunes which I've done twice now, but ATV still only shows only Summary and Photo tabs.
    The lower Name Library when selected says "Connected to iTunes" with unclear notes.
    *What am I missing - how to* get this ATV communicating with iTunes again (so I can update ATV with new songs)?
    +++++
    I have over 120gb of video/music on it so I would rather not have to reset the ATV and re upload everything.
    All updaters have been ran...

    I called 800 MY APPLE again and talked to another support specialist.
    This time I had connected via Ethernet hard wire and de-reauthorized the iTunes from the Mac.
    He put me on hold for 5 minutes and came and said his source told him to troubleshoot my wireless.
    I again told him:
    The wireless Airport Extreme takes my Apple TV out for Apple Updates, views Apple movie trailers off apple.com, views YouTube.com, and lists my ATV in iTunes> Devices if added as a streaming library OKAY.
    Regardless, I added, I am connected by Ethernet cable now -- all the above works through the Ethernet cable, too -- so HOW is it a wireless issue that my ATV is not showing under Devices?
    He agreed the wireless theory made no sense, but said that what he was told.
    I suggested one of the recent updates (2.02, 10.53, 7.62) broke my ATV because it was working fine a couple weeks ago.
    But, okay with wasting another minute on this...I did a Factory Restore on the AppleTV and it began working perfectly, of course that erased all my music/video.
    I spent the next 10 hours or so uploading my 120GB of music/video...
    +++
    BTW,
    Factory Restore reinstalls 1.0 (I had to update again to 2.0.2).
    Apple spec said the ATV is 10/100 Ethernet speed over the cable (but it seems a lot slower uploading my iTunes library).

  • Dear all, I have a MacBook Pro bought in April 2011. Last April, it got stuck while the wheel was spinning and I had to force it shut. That cost me my hard drive. Now, it's stuck again. I tried esc, cmd tab, moving the trackpad on the apple, but no. HELP!

    Dear John,
    thank you for your prompt reply. After I sent the email, I left the wheel spinning to see if it would eventually stop. It didn't, but after a while the screen turned blue, so I decided to switch everything off with a forced shut-down. I could not restart with the OS DVDs because I am currently away from home, but fortunately everything was more or less fine after restarting. It then got stuck again, I forced it shut again, restarted again, and now it seem to work but I won't overdo it and will switch off smoothly after writing this (unless it gets stuck again). Last April I have replaced the HD, so it's now just under 6 months old. And, of course, since the crash occurred when I was abroad and had backed up just before I left, I have lost only a few days' work. Still, and I know this will make me hugely unpopular here, with my 5 previous laptops running on MS Windows I never had a problem. Which does not mean I loved the OS, or I would not have switched to Mac.
    Anyway, and this is the main reason for this message, thank you very much again for your speedy intervention.

  • I am wanting to import photos  from my imac to my ipad.  the help page directed me to open the photo button under the device listing on itunes.  There is not a photo button and I am connected to the computer.  It does show buttons for books, movies, etc.

    I want to import photos from iphoto to my ipad.  The help button said to press the photo button under the device list.  There isn't a photo button shown.  Could it be hidden?

    If you connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, on the right-hand side of iTunes (not on the left) there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders or albums/events to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.

  • Black frame around icons when highlighted - double commands under the apple

    when anything highlighted with a mouse click a black frame appears - also there are double commands under the apple menu - example
    shut down
    shut down
    restart
    restart
    I did every trick I could think of - safe, single user, open firmware reset-all, account cache, disc utility, - only one account is effected, other accounts are ok - Monday was first time, I was 1 hour away form rebuilding account when the problem went away, on its own - this morning its back on a different machine, again just one account - G5 running 10.4.8 - any ideas?

    Turn off

    While you're at it, go to the Keyboard&Mouse preferences>KeyboardShortcuts and uncheck the VoiceOver shortcut (Cmd-F5)

  • HT4236 I don't have Photo Tab under Devices in iTunes

    How to find it?

    You don't have a Photos tab on the left-hand side of iTunes, if you select the iPad 'device' on the left-hand side then you should see a Photos tab (along with Music, Movies, Apps etc) along the top on the right-hand side - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.

  • Is my computer covered under the apple care

    is my printer covered under the apple care

    Your Mac is only covered under AppleCare if you bought AppleCare. Otherwise it has a one year warranty starting with the day that you bought it.
    You printer is not covered by Apple, it will have whatever warranty that the manufacturer offers on their printers.

  • There is no longer a "close tab" under the file menu, so how do I go back to a previous page when the back button will not work?

    Often the back button will not work. I can find no "close tab" under the menus, which I think used to be there, and which is used with Internet Explorer to go to the previous page. How can I go back to the previous page with Firefox when the back button will not work?

    No you can't. Apple don't support downgrading of iOS.

  • Why wont my mac book turn on completly it just shows the start screen and under the appl theres a bar that keeps loading and when its done it just powers off  why is this happening??????

    Why won't my macbook air turn on completly just at the start up page and under the apple logo there's a bar that just loads and when its done loading the Mac just powers off this just happens over and over I'm afraid if I do any thing my pictures will be lost on the computer ???

    Hi jasonfromforthworth,
    Thanks for the question.  If you have updated to Yosemite, then the Apple Logo with the status bar is the expected behavior for when the computer starts up.  However, the powering off is not supposed to be happening ... so here are some steps to take if your MacBook Air won't turn on.
    OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262
    Starting up in Safe Mode
    Follow these steps to start up into Safe Mode.
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup sound, press and hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be pressed as soon as possible after startup, but not before the startup sound.
    Release the Shift key when you see the Apple logo appear on the screen.
    After the Apple logo appears, it may take longer than usual to reach the login screen. This is because your computer is performing a directory check as part of Safe Mode.
    To leave Safe Mode, restart your computer without pressing any keys during startup.
    Troubleshooting: My computer won't turn on - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/TS1367
    This article discusses what to do if your Mac won't turn on. To differentiate this from a display issue, be sure that when you press the power button:
    You don't hear a startup chime.
    You don't hear any fan or drive noise.
    There is no video on your built-in or external display
    If your computer has power but doesn't display any video, it may have one or more of these similar symptoms when you press the power button:
    You may hear a startup chime.
    You may hear fan or drive noise.
    You may see a light from the Sleep LED (if your Mac has one).
    Pressing the Caps Lock key on the keyboard causes it to light. 
    If any of these display-related conditions occur, see Troubleshooting: My computer has no video instead. Otherwise, continue with this article.
    If your computer won't turn on, try each of these steps:
    Verify you have a good connection from your Mac to the wall outlet by confirming the power cord and adapter if present are securely connected and plugged in. To check if the wall outlet is working, plug in a lamp or other electrical device.
    If the wall outlet is working and you continue to have no power try another power cord or adapter if available. If it works you may need a replacement cord or adapter. 
    Note: See Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters for further troubleshooting with MagSafe adapters.
    Disconnect all accessories that are plugged in to the computer, such as a printer, hub, or other mobile device.
    Reset the SMC.
    If you are still unable to start up your computer after trying each of these steps, visit an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for further diagnosis. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail Store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).Note: Diagnostic fees may apply for issues not covered under warranty or the AppleCare Protection Plan (APP).
