Powerbook TV question as well but a little different!?!?!

does anyone know how to record from TV to powerbook.
like say i wanted to record my halo games.
i know how to use my TV as another display but i mean its not like i cant display my XBOX and my powerbook at the same time. so i guess i need some sort of input to my PB but yeah any suggestions are welcome??!?!

You might be able to use the new Elgato eyeTV Hybrid to do this via a composite/S-Video connection as it supports game consoles.

  • Same old question, but a little different I think

    I see that there are many, many questions about how to manage multiple computers and iPhones.  To be honest, the answers leave me a little confused, as I have tried a couple of the suggestions and nothing has helped my specific situation.  So I apologize if I'm being repetitive but please bear with me.
    Until recently we had one desktop with one version of iTunes that had everyone's songs on it (we're a family of 4).  In the last few months everyone has gotten iPhones, and my daughter just got a laptop, and this is where the confusion begins.  Everyone used the main iTunes account to sync up with their devices, then we started creating new accounts and nobody can get what they need anymore.
    It looks like currently all music and apps are on my wife's iTunes account.  The rest of us have some smaller subsets based on what we were authorized to load back onto iTunes (desktop) after loading stuff from my wife's iTunes account.  I think ideally what I would like to be able to do is have four separate iTunes accounts - each accessible from our individual desktop accounts (and my daughter's also from her laptop).  I'd like to be able to take all the songs and apps from the main account & dole them out to who they belong to, then have each of our devices linked to our own iTunes account.  So everything separate, BUT then I'd like to have the ability to share songs or apps between our accounts through directories when we want to.
    Does any of this make sense?  I don't know if our needs are realistic in general, if I need to back everything up and start from scratch, or how I do any of this.  I feel kind of dense that I can't figure this out.  Any help that can be offered would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

  • Another DVD question, but a little different

    Is there anyway to get just a certain chapter of a DVD onto an iPod?

  • Same but a little different problem with iPod

    I installed my iPod shuffle and everything worked great. Then I tried to recharge it and now I have the same blinking light problem that everyone else has described. My difference is that my iPod is recognized in iTunes, but not recognized by Windows. My computer only shows it as a mass storage devise. When I try to restore the iPod, I get a "Firmware update failure. Disk write error" notice.
    Can someone please give me some direction??
    Thanks.

    Don't be concerned that Windows doesn't recognize your Shuffle. I support two Shuffles with my computer, and when they're plugged-in (one at a time) they only show up under Control Panel/System/Device Manager/Disk Storage/Apple iPod USB Device -- they're not assigned a drive letter. Now, are you trying to charge your Shuffle with iTunes open? If so, try charging with iTunes closed, and the Shuffle turned OFF. The Status light may flash for 30 seconds or so but then it should go steady.

  • Similar Wi Fi woes but a little different.

    I don't have a physical router (I'm using the built in Airport on my iMac) but can't connect to anything over my iPhone G3's (or my first gen iPhone) Wi Fi. I have Airport turned on on my iMac and it says it's connected to Apple Network ##### and has the IP of 10.0.1.2.
    My iPhone(s) join the network no problems and have similar IP's (different by 1 number). I've tried reseting the Network settings, renewing DHCP leases, typing new IP addresses etc. just about everything I can find on this discussion board (BTW, where did the search function go?) but nothing works. It seems like a lot of folks are having difficulty connecting via Wi Fi and maybe this is an Apple problem?
    When I reset the network settings or "forget this network" the IP number changes to one that starts with a 169.XXX number but within a few minutes will change to the 10.0.1.X number.
    Anyway, I thought I'd post here because it seems like most people experiencing Wi Fi issues are connecting through a router. No me, just my iMac. Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Joe

    More info in the vain hope that someone can help. I bought and installed FileMagnet (an app that allows you to put and store files of different types on your iPhone) and it uses Wi Fi to transfer files. I turned Wi Fi back on and FileMagnet worked flawlessly. I then tried to access the iTunes store but I get the same message as before. I also installed Apple's Remote and that won't work either. When I try it says Connecting to Library but then states that it Could Not Find Library.

  • I have just purchase Apple TV and uploaded my itunes from my pc to icloud, this has been shared to my ipad and i now have a little cloud with a red arrow next to all my tunes, so all would seem well, but on the apple tv nothing in music ? is it me?

    I have just purchased Apple TV and an ipad, i have uploaded my itunes to icloud from my pc and activated sharing, i now have all my tunes on the ipad and pc and all have a little cloud with a red arrow next to them so all seems well, but when i go on Apple TV, and i'm all signed in and all boxes checked, i click on music, my music, and all files are empty, should i not see my itunes and be able to play them from my apple TV, or have i misunderstood what the cloud is for.?
    Any answers please. Apple TV 3rd Gen,  Ipad Air.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't play music from the computer if there is none there. If you are using iTunes Match you should now be able to download and play all your music on the Apple TV from the music feature on the main page.

  • HT201272 I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there are less movies available there than there are in my i-Tunes account. I've done some looking around at questions from others, but haven't found an answer that works for me.

    I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there less movies available there than what is available in my i-Tunes library. I have 38 movies showing in my library but only 23 are showing in the Movies tab on the Apple TV. After researching this a little, there are only 23 movies showing under Purchased in the Quicklinks of my i-Tunes account. The majority of my collection are digital copy downloads that came from DVD purchases. Some of the missing movies were added in the past couple of months, the rest are a year-or-so old. I have done some looking around at questions from others, but I have not found an answer that will fix my situation. How do I update my library to get ALL of my movies to reflect that they were "Purchased"(as it says they were in their Properties)?

    The pros and cons of to CC or not to CC have been done to death
    Its a fact the CC model will work for some, especially newbies and small businesses.
    The risks associated with the CC model have been well documented.
    For long term users of CS perpetuals its generally a large hike up in cost compared to the upgrade system.
    Then there are the....... Adobe can rot it hell...... group who will never subscribe
    To each their own, you do the math to suit your cashflow whatever that is and then make an informed decision
    To those on the CC model, I'd like to offer some practical advice.........do not allow automatic updates.........make regular backups............develop an exit strategy of alternatives for when you can no longer afford the subscription costs............never ever assume that the Adobe update is bug free
    Enjoy your cloud

    Thank you for that post, and the advice. I just happen to be one of those who it does work for. I've been around long enough to know that CC isn't going to work for everyone(the large publishing/radio/web company I work for isn't upgrading to CC because of the costs involved). But it does for me as I potentially venture out into the full-time freelancing world and away from the more structured big office environment. I can't make decisions based on what is best for anyone else, or what will hurt or help Adobe. Just what affects me, and that's all.

  • My Powerbook will not power up, but I can hear the fan running...

    Please help!! My Powerbook will not power up, but I can hear the fan running when I press the power button to attempt to power it up. I just received a new power adapter because it wasn't working properly and it was doing this before and then it worked for a week and now it will not power up at all. It just starts the fan but nothing else turns on. When I plug the adapter, with the battery still connected, it will look as if it is charging but then the light on the plug turns from green to orange then off and doesn't power up at all. If I take the battery out and plug in the adapter, the light stays on but it does not power up except for the fan noise. Does anyone have any suggestions? I also followed the two articles listed online in regards to resetting the power setting and the command + alt + P + R as well. Nothing works. Thanks in advance.....

    Same here. If I start up with the power adapter attached, it starts up fine. If I try to start up from battery only, the fan comes on, the sleep light comes on but nothing else happens. I tried letting it sit that way for about 15 minutes and nothing changed. I tried attaching the power cord while in this mode and nothing changed. I tried the PMU reset a couple of times but nothing helps.
    This computer is just over 1 year old and I have not had any problems with the power cord (3rd party), the battery, or any problem like this before. It started after a proper shutdown last night and attempt to start without the power cord this afternoon.
    Any answers to this yet? I think I'll call on this and report any success to this discussion.

  • My iPhone will no longer pick-up the wifi at home(comcast). My mom used to have comcast and I used to connect there as well, but she changed to verison and I connect there, but no longer can get the comcast wi-fi at home.  the wi-fi settings are ok there,

    My iPhone will no longer picks-up the wifi at home(comcast). My mom used to have comcast and I used to connect there as well, but she changed to verison and I connect there, but no longer can get the comcast wi-fi at home.  The wi-fi settings are ok there, but blank at home now.  The phone's network settings are fine because I can join other wifi networks.  I've done a reset with no results.  Is there a manual way for me to restore the comcast wifi from the router?

    First thanks for the reply and second sorry about the confusion.  I was unable to get the full message out, but here's the problem:
    Like I had mentioned, for a long time both me and my Mom had comcast and as soon as I came into both dwellings the phone would automatically jump onto either wifi network.  Then a while ago she verison and used the same Belkin router.  So there was no problem and my phone jumped on her system as usual, but at some point something happened and when I got home I noticed that the phone asked to be put on my system.  I would input the password, but it would say "unable to connect" to the network.  I did the standard things like check the network settings on the phone itself and they were fine.  Then I did a reset (actually twice) with the same result.  It seems like the phone ability to pick-up wi-fi is ok because when I go to my University I can log-in with no problem.  The only thing I noticed is when I look at the settings (on the iPhone) for the router at home the whole thing is blank.  My question is: Is there a manual way to get the phone to pick-up my router?  I need to have it on my network at home because I use DocumentsToGo a lot.  Thanks again for your response again and I hope things are clear now.  Have a great day.

    I am having the same problems. My guess is that a lot of people are having the same problems and just living with it. Those of us who know where to go on the Internet come here to find a fix.
    It seems Verizon has some explaining to do. Maybe they should try Beta testing new software a little better. I would rather have to wait longer for something that works. I am sure that some manager or director said this is close enough, deploy it and we will see what happens. Well, you are seeing the problems. Time to fix your mistake.
    All of us are telling our friends about the problems. The longer this goes on, the more people we will tell about it.
    Wouldn't you rather us be telling our friends that their is an error in the new interface and that you are working hard to fix it?
    If you want to be up front about this, then just tell us. We are adults and can handle it. If you made a mistake, own up to it and give us some credit for doing your Beta testing in the field.
    Customer Service is all about telling the truth and if you made a mistake, admit it and lets move on with a fix. I do not want to be told again that I should be able to unplug it, power cycle it, try the on-board diagnostics, etc., etc.......
    I am going to be repsonding on a daily basis to keep this topic at the top of the list.
    Time to come clean. You will feel better Verizon.
    Let's talk tomorrow.

  • Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

    Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

    Thank you Joe - I tried this but it's only showing a teensy amount of music - the stuff on the second users account as opposed to the giagntic library on the 'main' account. I actually went to a Genius Bar and they said that apple doesn't really want you to share music between accounts - parents don't want to hear their kids music etc. Which seemed strange, but it might be the case sadly   Thanks anyway!
