Really impossible to watch shows on websites?

Lots of websites (networks like cbs.com, hulu.com if not using Hulu Plus, etc.) allow you to watch full-content episodes of recent TV shows, streamed to the browser. I know the iPad doesn't do Flash, but I still feel like I must be missing something - surely a device this popular has some way of consuming this content?!? Am I missing the right app or some other trick, or are iPad users really barred from this content?

Not saying there is everything under the sun, but there are many choices for TV shows. All in the App Store

HT204289 Can I use AirPlay to stream shows from websites like TVO and then watch them on my AppleTV?

I would like to know if I can stream shows from websites like TVO or Treehouse using my iPad and then watch them on my Appletv using AirPlay.

Hello zvolkert,
It sounds like you would like to be able to play audio to a set of wired speakers connected to your computer and a set of AirPlay speakers. Currently, this feature is available through iTunes 10 or later on a computer.
If you click the AirPlay icon in iTunes 10 or later, you will get a window like this:

On Demand WATCHED shows no longer are highlited as WATCHED

All of the shows and series that I have watched over the past couple years are now showing as no longer watched. This is an issue when going back to series where I have forgotten where I am in a certain season.   I liked the ability to just look on the ON DEMAND page for movies to scan thru the icons and quickly identify the WATCHED shows.   I called support and they were going to send some type of signal down the line to refresh but has not worked yet.   Anyone else with this issue....i know it may be trivial....but I really liked it.    Thanks for any help!

Hey BooLoo welcome to my nightmare.    I notice Comcast GWEN is answering some concerns or Comcast TED where are you?    This continues to annoy me as things stay watched briefly then turn on later and it does not stay watched.
I am convinced this feature that has gone away is wide spread but I am also convinced that most do not care I guess and are too busy to worry about it. I admit I get a bit A...L or OC about things like this but it is a very convenient feature to keep track of where you are in a multi season series and I like to be able to skim right past a movie if I watched it when searching On Demand.
At my age I sometimes forget when I have watched a particular movie or episode.   Please acknowledge what is going on Gwen or Ted.
I was getting the same thing myself, my notifications were on. I turned them off and turned them back on and the watched symbol was where it should be.

How can I add a column to show the website (web site) of an rss feed?

I've got a lot of rss feeds coming into thunderbird. I organized some into folders, but also have a folder for several rss feeds as they adress the same topics and I prefer not to browse through 25 separate folders. However, the sender doesn't always make it clear which blog it's from, so I'd like to add a column which shows the website of the rss feed. (sender is often: [email protected], and there are different writers for a single blog who themselve have their own blog as well, so can't sort on sender name either).
When opening an rss feed, it displays in the header: web site (with the space) and then the web adress. This is what I'd like to be able to see in my columns.
I didn't see an option yet to customize columns, nor did I find an addon that does this.
Does anyone know a solution?

Thanks, that seems to work. I'm struggling to place the lightbox at the top of the page however - when I click the trigger I want the menu image to display anchored to the top of the page, but there's always a gap as it centers the image. Help is appreciated!

What cable do you need to watch shows from your macbook to your HDTV?

What cable do you need to watch shows on your macbook to your HDTV?

Depends on which MacBook Pro you have and what kind of TV you have.
If you're MacBook Pro is 2010 or 2010, and your TV has an HDMI input, then get this adapter. It should be easy.

I edited my web site. Now in Firefox I see the HTML language, in IE and Safari I see the website. What do I need to do to have all 3 browsers show the website

I updated my website by doing some basic editing. Upon completion of the editing I checked out the website on IE and Safari and Firefox to make sure the changes looked the way I wanted them. On IE and Safari everything was fine, however, on Firefox the browser did not show my website it showed the basic HTML document. I am thinking there must be some code that Firefox got hung up on, but I have no idea how to figure out what firefox does not like and still keep the other browsers happy.

Unclear what you mean by "store" an incomplete SMS. The Messages app will return to the state you left it as long as you haven't restarted the phone.

When I watch YouTube videos on my iPhone 5 it sometimes suddenly drops in quality so much the whole video goes blurry and it's almost impossible to watch anything??

Apple TV flickers while watching shows

While watching shows on Netflix my Apple TV flickers constantly during every show.

What causes my TV screen to flicker when I'm watching Apple TV?

Firefox does not show full websites

Suddenly, Firefox does not show complete websites. IE does just fine.
Here's sample:
http://i40.tinypic.com/lboxv.jpg
What do we do? Some sites show fine, some like this - a list view, or whatever. And it's not online issue, as like I said - IE shows same sites just fine.

Hello ukrkoz, if you have the same issue again try to clear cookies and cache. Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

Thank you.

Watching vidoes on websites

When I try to watch videos on websites, it tells me that I have to install a flash player. But when I try to download it Safari tells me I cant download it. Any suggestions? Thank You!

Welcome to the forums.
You cannot watch flash videos in Safari currently. Perhaps in a few months (after the SDK is released) we may have some browsers that are capable of it.
In the meantime if there are flash videos you want to play on your iPhone you can convert them on your computer to MPEG4 and save them as any other video.

Watching videos from websites or email

Is there any way to download and watch videos from websites or email on the iPhone? When I click the link it says Safari cannot download the file. Just wondering if there is an update or application I can download.
Thanks in advance,
Keith.

Not currently, the videos you're trying to watch are most likely flash and the safari browser for the iPhone just doesn't support it.... Its possible that its not flash and the video just happens to be a codec that the phone doesn't recognize. But so far, the only video from websites that ever worked on the iPhone we're quicktime videos. Lol no surprise there.
Anyways, I hope I've helped.
Take care!

IPhone wont sync watched shows correctly.

I have my iPhone set to sync the most recent 5 uwatched shows of a series. I watch one of those 5 on my Apple TV, which makes the show appear as watched on iTunes. Next time I sync the iPhone, it marks that show as watched, but doesn't sync the next unwatched show--it just keeps the same 5 shows (watched and unwatched).
The only way I can seem to get around this is to go into iTunes and mark the watched shows as unwatched, then mark them again as watched. The next sync then correctly gives me the 5 most recent unwatched.
Has anyone else noticed this? And is there a fix? Something is very wrong here.

never heard of perian. its a quicktime player? would this help?
Give Allan's advice a try. I'm curious to see how that works for you.
4GB RAM could be part of the issue. Open Activity Monitor, select System Memory and see what it says for Page ins, Page outs, and Swap used.
Perian isn't a necessity, but those three together usually cover all the different formats you might encounter.
