How do I play video from photostream on apple TV?

PhotoStream is now available on my applet TV and the notes on the upgrade said I could play video from my Photo Stream. However the Photo Stream on the apple TV only presents photos for viewing. Any idea on how to get it to show my videos?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately that's not possible.

Playing video from MacBook Pro to TV (Like iPod)

Hi, I have an iPod Video, with the cables that I can plug from the 3.5mm jack to the a/v ports on my tv and play video on my iPod...
I'm just wondering if there's anyway to just use this cable to plug from my MacBook Pro straight to my TV a/v ports and play the video, instead of having to import them to my iPod first...
They are MP4's and already in iTunes, I COULD just upload them to my ipod but i'd like to know if it's possible to just go straight from the computer.
Cheers..

i gave up on the apple ones, for me they weren't comfy, didn't sound good, kept falling out when i ran, were easily damaged if the volume was too high, and leaked sound like crazy which is annoying to everyone around
really not apple's finest piece of design
instead i now use some sony in-ear ones, mdr-ex71, it took a few days to get used to the fit but they have much better sound quality, are more comfortable, don't fall out, let enough outside noise in to be safe in the street, and don't leak sound - in fact when i wear them i'm sometimes annoyed by the sound leaking from someone else wearing apple's crappy earbuds!

Play video from apple tv and audio from macbook , its possible, please ?

play video from apple tv and audio from macbook , its possible, please ?
because i dont have airport and i have a micro plugged to my speakers

If you mean "can I play a video file's video part via AppleTV and the audio part via the Macbook" then the answer is no.
You could probably play the video on AppleTv and also play it on the Macbook and output the audio, but you would have to do this manually, and 2 applications accessing the same video file might cause stuttering playback issues. Additionally you'd have to manually sync the audio and lip sync problems are annoying at the best of times.
If you mean "can I watch a video from AppleTV and play separate music via iTunes on the Macbook", then the answer is yes.

How do I play video from my macbook pro to my tv?

How do I play video from my macbook pro to my tv?

What model MacBook Pro do you have? On my late 2011, I used to use a Mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter to get video and audio from my Mac to my television. I used this adapter from Monoprice. Worked great - I just no longer use it because I bought a 27" monitor.
You can also use AirPlay mirroring if you've the right MBP and an Apple TV - but the wired method works, too.

Why doesn't my MacBook Air play videos smoothly even through Apple TV 3rd gen and 8MBPS connection?

Mine is a new MacBook Air and new Apple TV 3rd Gen, however whenever I try to play videos from my Mac Air, the videos are choppy. My internet connection is 8MBPS and both my devices connect on the Ethernet, not cabled. Please help as the Apple TV doesnt play Youtube videos either.

From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Test.
If you use a FireWire audio interface, disconnect it and test again.

Play video from external HD to Apple TV

I would like to play videos from an external drive to the Apple TV.
The workarounds I've seen all involve moving the entire iTunes library to the external drive. I want to keep all my music on the internal HD but the videos on the external HD.
Suggestions?

Launch iTunes on your computer
Mac - iTunes > Preferences > Advanced
PC - Edit > Preferences > Advanced
Uncheck 'Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library'
This will allow you to drag and drop videos from the external drive to iTunes without copying to the internal drive. Once in iTunes you should be able to watch them on your Apple TV
Hope that helps

I have just bought a MacBook Air and i cannot play videos from the internet as it asks for a flash player to be installed i try to download Adobe flash player and it will not allow me to do so?

Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

I canon play video from my ipad through my Apple TV after downloading ios7 any idea why?

Is there any reason I can't play video from my ipad through Apple TV after downloading ios7?

Home sharing isn't working either
Which is why you can not use the remote app. Did you turn on home sharing on your computer and on ATV?
eve though they have the same Apple ID.
Did you enter the ApplieID in the home sharing login though? Or just in for the iTunes store, or iCloud, or photo sharing, or something else?
Home sharing isn't working either, I can't play or transmit any video from my iPad to the Apple TV because it doesn't recognize it
That would be AirPlay, not homesharing. THey are not related. Did you enable air play on all the devices?
Have you run the network test tools on ATV? Can ATV access the iTunes store, Netflix, etc?

How to transfer video from macbook to ipad2

How to transfer video from macbook to ipad2

Haryati-
I found your question while researching another one on the same topic. I found it hard to believe that iPad videos could not be transfered to a computer!
I made a short video on my iPad 2. It showed up in the Photos camera roll.
Running iPhoto and connecting the iPad to my Mac Pro, I selected the iPad under DEVICES. The video was at the end of the photos, I selected it and clicked on "Import Selected". I then dragged the imported video to my desktop and it played in QuickTime Player when I double-clicked it.
Then I tried it with Aperture. The dragged copy appeared to play in QuickTime Player, but the screen was black. However an Exported Version played correctly.

Streaming video from Macbook Pro to 46 inch LCD

I am trying to stream video from my 13 inch Macbook Pro to my 46 inch Samsung LCD TV. I am using a HDMI cable to a DVI cable to attach the computer. When I play videos from iTunes, the picture looks great, however when I am streaming video from an internet site such as Netflix, the picture is not great (it almost looks pixilated). I am wondering, is this an issue with my computer (video card, etc) or does it have to do with my internet connection (I currently have the lower DSL connection)? Is there any other way to make the picture look better? Thanks for your help.

Yes, forget streaming that way, .....the ANSWER youre looking for is the APP BEAMER
you cannot stream youtube, rather ON COMPUTER video and movie files.
free trial to test it

for streaming elsewise, use VLC STREAMER
One of the most handy APPS for entertainment ever made.

Playing videos from iTunes onto a TV from my iPad

Can I play videos from iTunes onto a TV from my iPad. All I seem to be able to get is the music when I connect via an HDMI cable or wirelessly to apple TV.
Thanks
Terry

I have sorted now. Play through video app not music. Easy when you know how!!!

Playing video from iPad to TV

I bought the AV cable at the Apple store yesterday and tried it out. I can play
video from the Video app, the Netflix app, and the YouTube app without a
problem. But I can't play anything from the ABC app or the Hulu Plus app (the
free stuff - I'm not subscribed yet) or the HGTV app. I get sound, but no
picture. Anyone know why? Am I doing something wrong?

I just tried to watch from the ABC Player on the TV, doesn't work. The app description in the app store doesn't indecate you can watch it on a TV. And there nowhere on the app to switch viewing from the iPad to the TV. So, I would say you can't view this on a TV.

Firefox only can't play videos from Hamster web site

Firefox plays videos from every other site but Hamster. IE and Chrome have no problems playing videos from this site

Hi .
Make sure your OS X software is up to date.
Click the Apple  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update.
Or, open System Preferences > App Store > Check Now
If your Mac is up to date, most news websites require Flash.
Back to System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
Click: Check Now
