Play netflix through IPhone onto PC or TV

I have a sattelite internet connection with limited bandwith. I have the 3GS Iphone with unlimited data. Is there a way I can use the Iphone to watch movies on my PC or TV to save my sattelite bandwidth for other uses?

I bought a cable and none of the streaming video apps work to the TV

Do I need Apple Tv to play Netflix from Iphone 4s to my hdmi tv?

Is Apple Tv needed to play Netflix content from my iphone 4s 7.1.2 to an hdmi tv?

Yes it is, the ATV is like an extension of your iDevice. Better yet, the ATV has its own Netflix app so you don't need your iPhone. Works like a charm.

How do I play netflix through my iPhone 4s on my tv

On my son's itouch it just asks him if he wants to display-out onto the tv but I can't figure out how to get my iphone to do the same thing.

We have been using a Rocketfish 30 pin cable to play movies from my son's iPod on the TV but it would not work with my iPhone 4S. I could not get helpful info online so I went to the store. Turns out iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S are not the same when it comes to these cables. I had to buy a "better" cable, about $41 with tax. I don't know the difference but it worked. We had a "Psych" marathon through my iPhone netflix account but watched it on my bigscreen TV instead of my laptop.

Why does some of my music not appear in my music app on the iPhone but I can search and play it through iPhone search?

A few albums and songs are in my iPhone 4S but don't appear in my music app, to play them, I must search for it using search iPhone

This seems like a very innocent post, but in digging more on the problem I've also seen this (some music recopies with every sync) with 9.1.1 level code. Apple Software Update said my system was fine, and iTunes itself also said it was up to date. However the reported code level is 9.1.1.11 rather than 9.1.1.12. After I manually downloaded and installed the most current .12 version, on 2 different machines btw, I noticed that the library needed to be updated yet again. Let me tell you that on a 1TB library this takes a long long time.
After another re-copy cycle, and did some more sync tests and this time I'm not getting the re-copy to happen, so the problem appears to be cleared up.
Again, issues like this are magnified significantly on systems with very large library.

Playing video through frontrow onto HDTV

I am wondering if I use frontrow to play a video, and I connect my computer to my HDTV with an HDMI cable, will it play show the same quality over the HDTV or can I expect some loss in quality? If there is loss, is there some better way to play videos over the tv?

TV screens, even HDTVs, don't always make the best computer displays. How big is your HDTV? Your MacBook's screen is 1280 x 800 in a 13" (diagonal) screen. This means you have approximately 100 pixels per inch. If your HDTV is running at full 1920 x 1080 (there are other resolutions for "HDTV") but it's 52" (diagonal) then you're only getting about 60 pixels per inch. The pixels themselves will be larger giving you a less crisp display.
Also, exactly what kinds of videos are you going to display? Purchased videos from iTunes? A DVD movie? An HD movie trailer from the QuickTime web site? A Blue-Ray movie? Higher resolution videos will give you a different experience. But the MacBook won't lower the quality of the original video you're playing to get it to display on an HDTV.
Personally, my iMac is connected to my HDTV and I use it as a DVR with my EyeTV Hybrid to get over-the-air HDTV. It's also used as my DVD player as it's also connected to my stereo for surround sound. I also download my purchased iTunes videos to that computer (the music is duplicated on both the MacBook and iMac, though). All three options look fantastic on my HDTV. I couldn't be happier with the quality. I don't do a whole lot of Front Row on the iMac since it only displays on the iMac's built-in screen unless you "mirror" the two displays and that doesn't always work correctly. But, with a MacBook, you could attach the computer to the HDTV, close the MacBook's screen and use the HDTV at full resolution as the only display. (You can wake the MacBook with the remote after closing it.) Your exact experience will depend on the TV and the types of videos you're playing.

Watching Netflix Through an Old Toshiba TV

Lets try this again...
I have a ten year old Toshiba TV (Model-SR32) that I would like to play Netflix through. I got an Apple Component cable which has the 5 (red,red,white,yellow,green and Blue) connectors which I hooked to the colorstream outlets on my TV and connected to my IPad. I am able to get audio but the picture is scrambled and completely unwatchable. The same cable works on our other HD TV so I think that the problem lies with the Toshiba. Are there any settings,either on the TV or the Ipad, that I need to change to remedy this situation. Would I have better luck with a Roku or is this model too outdated for this purpose?

What A/V cable setup are you using? The Apple branded setup that has a doc connector, etc or a simple generic cable that goes only into the headphone jack?
Either way however, up until the recent update to the Netflix App you could not use TV out from Netflix.
Are you using an iPhone4 ? The update above only applies to iP4.

Hi,
Already mentioned on the following post:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-Notebook-PC-Questions/VGA-on-laptop-HDMI-on-TV-needs-connected/m-...
You need a CONVERTER, not ADAPTER The setup:
The following list may help:
http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/sis.html?_kw=HDMI+To+VGA+COMPONENT+Adaptor+A+V+Digital+Converter
Laptop (VGA) ---- Converter from VGA to HDMI ------ TV
You also need sound, you can buy a converter with sound OR connect sound directly from laptop to TV.
Regards.

After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - whihc has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5.

After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - which has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5. Has been working fine up until update. Is there a fix for this? The car does not have usb

Here I come to save the daaaaaaaaaay!!!
Had the same issue with my Nissan Rogue 2011.
This listed below will fix it...
Go to General > Restrictions > CarPlay -- Make sure Carplay is DISABLED. (The new IOS 8 enables this on default)
Go to General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
The Nissan Rogue radio system was never designed to work with CarPlay. By default, CarPlay feature comes enabled when you install IOS 8. Suckz, right?
You're very welcome! Have a great day!
Sincerely,

I recently got an iphone 5S and my songs not purchased from iTunes are grayed out (phone only) and are skipped past when playing them through my iPhone.

I recently got an iphone 5S and my songs not purchased from iTunes are grayed out (phone only) and are skipped past when playing them through my iPhone. i have tried the following:
1) Removing all music from phone and resynced to iTunes PC library.
2) Erased phone and restored from back up
3) Erased phone and started as a new iPhone
4) Reformated the music files in my library that weren't playing
5) Deleted songs from iPhone and computer and re-imported CDs
6) Tried to redownload my COMPLETE MUSIC LIBRARY from iCloud.
7) I have also turned it off and turned it back on several times
8) I tried syncing through my macbook (only moved partial songs to it to see if it would even work).
9) I have tried to get Siri to play them, did not work.
10) All music does play fine on my iPod Touch 3rd (iOS6 i think) gen and iTunes on Mac and PC
11) I added a CD to my roommates iTunes and it plays on their iPhone 5S but not mine.
After all of these things it is now WORSE!!! My iTunes purchased songs are now experiencing the same issue along with some (not all) of the original music files that were skipping and grayed out. My conclusion is i have no clue at this point! I have done everything i have found online in EVERY discussion, i have spent over 60 hours trying to get this to work and i am asking myself, i bought this product why am having to fix this when it worked just fine on my iPod touch (3rd Gen) and iPod Classic!!!! PLEASE APPLE FIX THIS ISSUE FOR US!!!!

I had this problem too after i upgdatd to OS X Mavericks... only the songs on my iphone 5s that i purchased from itunes would play.
i read something about it being a syncing issue. when you plug your phone into your computer with the usb cable, the person said to switch from automatic syncing of itunes to the "manual" option. mine was already set to manual so i wasn't sure anything would work. BUT, when i plugged my phone into my computer, it started to sync all of my music on my phone again (top of itunes bar where song playing/time is listed said "now syncing 123/534 songs to x's iphone"). once that was completed, i checked the music app on my iphone and everything was back to normal!
so, i would suggest setting your music syncing settings to manual if you haven't tried that yet!
hope this helps!

IPhone 4 using iOS 6.0.1 will not play music through my car stereo

I have an iPhone 4 since it became available on Verizon's network. I have had no issues with my phone since I began using it. I own a 2008 VW Rabbit with the optional iPhone/iPod docking station to play music through the car's stereo. I purchased a docking extention cable because my phone would not fit on the docking connector properly due to my phone case. Everything has been working beautifully, sans the charging feature, until a few weeks ago. Normally, I would start the iPod app, load the song or playlist I want to play, and plug it in to begin hearing my music. However, recently the music stopped playing through my car speakers and only played through the built-in speakers on my phone once plugged into the docking station. I have tried hard-rebooting (holding home button/sleep button at same time until Apple logo appears), soft rebooting (holding sleep button to slide power off), exiting all open apps, opening/closing iPod app, changing different settings through the Settings app, etc. I am at my wits' end. I use my phone to listen to my loaded music, Pandora and Slacker Radio. It has gotten really boring listening to local radio during my commutes. Please Community, help me!

i have same problem in UK - my phone no longer works with my car cable - it will charge the phone, my ipad works fine, as does my old itouch so I know that the cable is ok. It comes up with no connection even though it is charging it. It used to be fine I dont understand why this would happen?

HT201401 My iphone 4 wont play sound through the internal speaker. Will play if I hook up headphones. I have reset it, restored it, and it does the same thing.

My iphone 4 wont play sound through the internal speaker. Will play if I hook up headphones. I have reset it, restored it, and it does the same thing. I can still hear when i make calls too. The the output button only says dock connector or apple tv.

If the phone has ever gotten wet it may be damaged. It may also have dirt or a bent pin in the dock connector or the earphone jack. Try cleaning the dock connector and inspecting it with a magnifying glass. Try inserting and removing the earphone plug several times. If you have restored it and that did not fix the problem damage is the most likely cause.

IPhone 4 stops playing music through AUX and/or Bluetooth

I recently updated to 5.1.1 and my phone will stop playing music through the headphone/AUX jack. Pulling out the cord and plugging it back in reinitiates the music, but it will stop soon afterwards again. The song is still playing (becauseplay icon still up). Thought it was a problem with the cord, but other iPhones (not updated--friends phones) work just fine for long periods with no interruption.
I checked out the headphone jack looking for lint or debris and did not find any, so I did a restore. After restore of phone same problem, random cutting out using the headphone jack.
This morning it is doing the same cutting out while playing music with my Bluetooth Bose speaker... so I tested it with my physical stereo system dock, again, music cuts out...
What is going on with my phone?
(Keep in mind that I've tested all my music devices--Bluetooth speaker, physical stereo dock, and car aux jack/cord with other NON-updated iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S with no problems like the one I am having.)
Thank you.

I can confirm that I have exactly the same issue - music cuts out when using headphones. Sometimes it goes from play to stop and I can click play to start it again. Other times it stops (but is still playing) and I have to unplug and plug the headphone jack in again. Seemed tgo start after turnign on iTunes Match - Although the songs that stop are not in the cloud - they are on my phone. I have disabled itunes match to see if that will help and will report back...

I have the djay app on my ipad and i want to record the set i'm playing on my iphone through garageband. i need to take the sound from the headphone jack of the ipad, as the 30pin connector will be used to connect to the DJLive accessory. Is this possibl?

When i get in the car, if the audio is set on bluetooth the music will start playing automatically without me doing anything even if i don't have the music (itunes) running.
