Playlist is Music Not Recognized in Apple TV

Hello all,
At least with iTune 9.0, there is a built-in Podcasts, Music, etc. playlists. These don't seem to be recognized on the Apple TV (even with 3.0). Can someone else confirm this behavior? It seems the iPhone understands it but not Apple TV.
John

Think I've managed to recreate something like your issue.
Firstly I don't think it's just smart playlists, I think this might simply be a coincidence for you.
The devices list seems to play by a new set of rules under v 3.0, I'm not sure I fully understand the new rules just yet, but this is what I seem to see at the moment.
Only synced items appear in the device list
Playlists that don't have anything in them aren't synced
Playlists that have content in them from a content type that doesn't support playlists on the tv aren't shown under the device list.
Any playlist that contains mixed content type of which some content is of the type that doesn't support playlists on the tv causes the exclamation mark in the device list.

My Apple tv is not recognizing my Apple ID, what can i do?

My Apple tv is not recognizing my Apple ID, what can i do??

yeh me too. Everything seems to be working with my Thomson TG782T modem, it recognises the appletv on the wireless network, I can communicate with my itunes on my computer from the appletv menu system, my itunes library comes up on the appletv menu, but when trying to rent a movie it says that my password is not being recognised. Yet I can buy books from the itunes store using the same password from my ipad. I am at complete loss...my telecommunications company (Telstra) has no idea.
Do you think these little checks and changes to my password will help?

Try connecting your Mac to the Time Capsule with an Ethernet cable to see if that lets AirPort Utility "see" the Time Capsule.

You can only transfer purchases from iTunes on the iPad into iTunes on your computer. If you bought the music from another source, you need to use the source app to transfer the music, or you need a third party app to transfer the music.

Why is my computer not recognizing my apple id?

My husband purchased a MacBook Pro last week. We did the setup at the Apple Store and ever since have had continual problems with the computer recognizing, or in this case NOT recognizing, his Apple ID. The ID and password have been changed 3 times now. Is this a computer problem, an iCloud problem, or what? To be honest, I'm pretty frustrated right now and ready to pitch the whole thing out the window.

Sometimes, your Apple ID is actually "username" instead of "[email protected]" Try putting the username of your email instead of the actual address, and see if that works?

Music store not recognizing my apple id

i just bought a new computer- my old computer had crashed. i also bough a new ipod- a nano. i have purchased hundreds of dollars worth of music and i was hoping to put my music on my new ipod. i am not sure how to do this. but as a preliminary matter, when i try to sign on to th emusic store with my apple id- it says that my apple id has not been used with the music store. which is completely false. in fact, when i couldn't remember my password they sent it to me. i sent an email yesterday but have gotten no word- and i can't find a phone number for them. any suggestions? thanks!

Hi stephanie-dennis10,
Welcome to the Apple Support Community!
I understand that when your Apple ID and password are not working as expected it can be very frustrating. If you are getting Apple ID or password errors it may be necessary to reset your Apple ID password. Please use the attached link for help changing your password.
If you forgot your Apple ID password

Can't create playlist with music not on computer

Hi All,
I have tried a search and so far have not found an answer, hence the post.
New to iPod.
-Have successfully transferred all music to iPod from computer and CD collection
-I imported all CDs via IMPORT CD feature on iTunes, then deleted the imported music off of my computer once music was transferred to iPod.
I can drag a song to a playlist from iPod library if song exists on computer, but not if the song only exists on my iPod. Am I doing something wrong? I have 100s of CDs...there is no way I can leave all of my imported CDs on my computer hard drive.
Any help is appreciated...thanks!

Bob,
As Larry said already: it is NOT safe to have your music only on your iPod. Unless you can spare the time and import them all over again. Get an external drive. Solves your problem with storage and is a lot safer than having your music on the iPod alone. Read the posts of people with malfunctioning iPods and no back up of their music.

Music not recognized from old PC to new, what did i do wrong.

So i just got a new PC. I saved my entire Itunes file on an external hardrive. The music all transfers to the new PC and i loaded it into the newest Itunes. I authorized the new computer through Itunes and got all artwork. Now i cannot play songs or transfer music to my i-pod. I had to rboot the Ipod. so now i have an empty Ipod and a bunch of Music I cannot play. I've connested my Iphone and it seems to recognize it, but I'm afraid to connest it again until i trust the itunes to work. When I try to play a song it say cannot locate the original/
What did i do wrong? What can I do? I still have the old tower available to retreive Itunes
Thanks for any advice
MJ

The index page copied from the template is now reading the css. I did nothing other than shut down DW and open it again. Maybe it just takes a while for the process to complete. Am now creating more pages that are also not reading css. Will do the same and see if it all connects.

Apple tv is not recognizing my apple id and password

My serial number is not recognized by Apple support

Anyone know why Apple Support page does not recognize my serial number even if I do an edit copy, edit paste?

John,
My iMac is six months old. I have contacted Apple Support on numerous occasions, but recently, I have not been able to use the proper method for scheduling a phone call because the Support web site rejects my serial number. I do an edit copy edit paste from the Apple logo, about my Mac, but it gets rejected. I have tried everything from re-typing the serial number manually to substituting zero for O. Nothing works.
If I call Apple Support directly, they recognize my machine immediately.
Got any new ideas?
Jim

Serial number not recognized by Apple website. Need help to get a charger replaced.

I have a MacBook Pro (Build13A603) that recently started having trouble charging. It looks like there is a short in my power adapter. I purchased it from a Best Buy, and my extended warranty from there has already run out. I do not have Apple Care. I know sometimes Apple is able and/or willing to help out in these types of situations, but I have been trying to contact Apple Care, and when I try to provide my serial number the website does not recognize it. I have used the one from 'About This Mac' as well as the one laser etched on the bottom of my computer. Any other ideas how I may be able to get in touch with them to see if they just might replace the charger for me? The closest store to me is over 60 minutes away so any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

Have you tried to verify your MBP serial number here:
https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
Check it in System Information>Hardware Overview.
You MBP requires an 85w charger. OWC sells them for less than Apple:

Lightroom 4.1 exported JPEG files are not recognized by Apple Preview App

I just started using Lightroom 4.1 Trial version (coming from Aperture). I exported JPEG versions of some images using an ICC profile. On my iMac running Lion 10.7.5 the pictures do not show a thumbnail, the file on the desktop just shows "JPEG". I could not open the file with the Preview App, but I am able to open it with DPP (Canon software)? Also the file shows that it has 0 x 0 dimentions when I click Get Info even though it is about 25 Megs in size?
The message I get is
"The file “Edit-739820120223Canon EOS 7D.jpg” could not be opened.
It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize."
Does anyone know why this is hapening?
Is it a know issue between Adobe and Apple?
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks for help in advance.

25MB is quite a large filesize for a JPG, and this might be either quite a lot of pixels saved at a very "high" quality (not very much compressed), or it may be an extremely large number of pixels saved with medium compression.
While the technical spec of the JPG format imposes an absolute limit on maximum width and height pixel dimensions, some software employs a lower limit above which it considers the file to be invalid. Different programs, different limits, sometimes.
I have encountered this (for example) with pano stitched images using the full resolution of a large number of component shots - where JPG output could not be made, or if made, could not even be viewed as a whole by my standard image viewer (though TIFF was still OK even at still larger sizes).
If Lightroom has been set to a large printed size AND to a high ppi resolution, it is easy to get into very high numbers and very large output files. One should IMO at least question the utility and benefit of using very high ratios of upsampling from a standard digital photo - which may happen in some cases as a result of using the same output settings regardless, when spreading the same data across both small and large scales. If the file that was imported into LR really does provide an unusually high number of pixels expressing lots of detail, then that will better deserve such a capacious output file. Otherwise, each part of the file may merely show a very highly detailed representation, of a very blurry nothing-much-in-particular.
If the JPG has exceeded the viewer's size limits, a reported width and height of 0 may represent an error message, in effect - not actual reality.

Final Cut Serial number not recognized on Apple website

Hello,
When I try to log into the apple site to get the pro applications update for FC Studio, the system gives me this error message:
"The serial number you entered is not valid. See the materials that came with your product for the correct serial number. Use uppercase letters when entering your serial number."
I have tried every combination (dashes, no dashes, etc.) and I still cannot log in. I have already registered my version of FCP with Apple and cannot find any clear way to contact a human being at Apple to discuss this problem.
My friend is also having this problem and he just bought Final Cut Studio 3.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Make sure you're interpreting zeros and Os correctly. If the SN has an uppercase o and you enter a zero, it will not accept it and vice versa. Unfortunately, Apple uses a sans serif font for the SN, which makes it difficult to differentiate certain characters.
You can call AppleCare at 1-800-APL-CARE and explain your problem. Maybe if you offered to fax your serial number page from the FCS package, it would help. That's what I did for a support client of mine one time.
