Revised: can I stream internet content from a cell phone network to the apple tv?

So I am trying to stream internet content from my iphone (phone network) to the Apple TV. I currently do not have internet at my house. What I do have is a macbook pro, airport express, ipad (wifi only), and of course iphone and apple tv. So is there a way to configure these devices to somehow stream my phone content to my apple tv. As of now the only way to connect the iphone to the apple tv is through wifi; the bluetooth that apple tv supports is elementary and will not support this connection. When the iphone is on a wifi network it automatically tries to use it for internet content. So 1 option would have to be a work around for making the iphone use the cell phone network for pulling internet content and using the wifi to broadcast this content to the apple tv. Another option would be to connect the iphone with the macbook pro via bluetooth (somehow) and then mirror the macbook pro to the apple tv via the wifi network setup with the airport express. ANY IDEAS?

You wouldnt be able to to use both networks at the same time. Either need to connect the Apple TV to the cell network (which will require a lot of data and impact battery life) or get a home plan and broadcast over the local network (wifi)

Can't stream HD content from iMac to Apple TV - help pls!

Hi.
Until a few days ago everything worked fine but now I can't stream HD movies from my iMac iTunes library to my Apple TV or iPad.
My library is recognized just fine, I can access all the films - but when I try to play them all I get is the dreaded waiting circle which just circles forever without any movie playing. SD content will play but only after a loooong wait - but forget HD films. They just circle forever - in a few cases they will play for a few seconds and then halt.
As mentioned, I have the same issue on my iPad Mini 2, so it might not solely be an ATV problem but rather a Yosemite / iTunes issue? Not sure.
The facts:
I have changed nothing in my setup from a few days ago when everything worked fine and until now when nothing does.
I have rebooted my router.
I have rebooted my iMac and made sure Yosemite is updated.
I have factory reset my ATV3 and updated it to the latest firmware
I have renamed my iMac iTunes library as was suggested by someone in another thread.
I have tested my network speed and it's fine (30 MB down / 7 up)
Still it doesn't work :-(
Can anyone help? This is so annoying - it's like the transmission speed has gone way down between my imac and ATV and iPad.

For what it's worth this is my story, Apple TV on which I now rely totally for my entertainment started getting sluggish a few weeks/months? ago, both the one in the bedroom and in the living room. Loading was desperate the spinning wheel driving me to distraction, I did all the usual reset the settings, rebooted the Mac, repaired the disk and kicked the cat, brief respite and then back to the dreaded whirligig of death.
This evening I tried something different, my Airport Extreme handles 2.4 and 5GHz so I ran Wireless Diagnostics (hold down option key whilst clicking on wi-fi symbol) (then go to window in menu bar and select scan) and ran a scan.
The scan identified the best channels for both frequencies, I selected these as opposed to automatic and all was well, average time to load and start a movie 20 seconds.
Try it I hope it works for you I have had so much help from the Apple communities for so many years I hope I can give a little back.

IPod speaker/dock that can wirelessly stream internet radio from our Apple TV?

Our Apple TV 2 is downstairs. I use it to listen to internet radio streams all day. I'd love a speaker system for upstairs that can dock and play iPods, but also stream internet radio from the Apple TV downstairs. Does such a product exist? TIA for any pointers.

Your church services presumably have a specific internet address which you view in a browser?
If so and you have a fairly new iMac you could start playback on the iMac in a browser and use Airplay Mirroring to send a 'copy' of what is on-screen to your TV using AppleTV to display it. The same would apply to modern iPhones (4s and later) and newer iPads provided the phone can play them in a browser (maybe not if the stream id Flash based).
AirPlay Mirroring
Requires a second-generation Apple TV or later. Supports the following Mac models:
iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
AppleTV does not have an internet browser. It is primarily a device to play content from your local iTunes library or from iTunes store via the internet (purchases or rentals). It does have certain 'channels' like YouTube, Netflix etc which you are probably not interested in.
AppleTV needs to be connected to the same network as the iMac.
If your iMac is too old for Airplay Mirroring, something like AirParrot might work in software.

TS2972 I am having problems streaming content from iTunes on my computer to the Apple TV.

I cannot stream content from iTunes on my computer to my Apple TV (latest model).
I have checked the following -
iTunes Version 11.1.5.5
No Windows updates outstanding for the computer
Home Sharing is turned on in both iTunes and the Apple TV
The wireless network appears to be OK
iTunes connects to the Store so the computer is OK
the Apple TV connects to external content - You Tube etc
I have opened up TCP/IP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 in the McAfee Firewall
When I turn on the Apple TV and check the Computer Icon, I get the following message -
"To access your iTunes library on Apple TV, turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer using "..the Apple ID...".
Where to next?

Well, after 1 hour of phone support and 90 minutes of on-line support, McAfee finally resolved the problem.
If anyone else has a similar problem, tell McAfee to look at Service Request 1443603280.

HT4557 question! do you have to actually be at home, like using the same wi-fi network as the computer? or can you stream this music from somewhere else? and does the computer need to be one?

for example, can you be using another wi-fi network, for example in another country? and still stream music from my mac to ipad for free? and does the mac have to be on?

You could use something like Splashtop Remote Desktop on your Mac and iPad. This streams your Mac's desktop to your iPad so you can have full access to everything on your Mac anywhere in the world, as long as your Mac is turned on and connected to a network and your iPad has a data connection. It can stream full audio and video from your Mac. It is not exactly home sharing but it does what you want fairly well, with the added bonus of being able to use your Mac from anywhere. Search for Splashtop on the App store for more information. It normally sells for around $10 but is frequently on sale for as low as 99c, so have a look and see if it's for you while you wait for it to go on sale. I can confirm this works as I use it daily to work on my Mac from my iPad while at work.

I HAVE AN IPAD 2 WITH WIFI ONLY, CAN I GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM ANY SMARTPHONE, OR DO I NEED A SPECIFIC PHONE FOR THIS?

i ave an ipad 2 with wifi only, can i get internet access from any cell phone, or do i need a specific phone or type of phone

I received an iPad 2 for Christmas (the 1st Apple item I've ever owned!) and own a Nokia N95 8GB mobile (that's pretty much on its last legs/ready to die any day).
On the Nokia I've got 2 apps (downloaded from/via Nokia's 'Ovi' app store): JoikuSpot & HandyWi. Both are the free versions.
I've not used HandyWi much - if at all - but JoikuSpot has been great. Basically, it creates a wifi hotspot (as pjl123 mentioned) in a couple of straightforward steps, and allows a few devices to be connected. It displays who/what is connected at a given time - so you can check if the guy having coffee behind you is piggybacking your hotspot or not! - data packets sent received etc.
The paid version has the benefit of allowing you to secure the hotspot and other security features. Their website is www.joiku.com, FYI.
Given how slow behind the 8 ball Nokia has been, their phones are getting cheaper and cheaper - given Joiku's meant to work with Nokia S60, Symbian ^3, Maemo, Meego & Sony Ericsson S60, this might be a cost effective option.
Ps. Ah! One more thing - Joiku's website specifies that 3G must be used; that WAP will not work. Good luck, enjoy!

TableView cellfactory set style based on content from another cell

I'm trying to figure out how to set the color of the current cell based on the content from another cell or property in the class that contains the row content. I looked at the following thinking I can use this but the table position method is not longer there.
((Person) t.getTableView().getItems().get(t.getTablePosition().getRow())).setLastName(t.getNewValue()); // from a oracle tableview javafx example
I would like to:
if (((Person) t.getTableView().getItems().get(t.getTablePosition().getRow())).getRowError())
cell.setStyle("..."); // Set the color of the cell content
Is there away to get the underlying object from the setcellfactory call method?

Does
t.getTableView().getItems().get(getIndex())give you access to the object represented in the current row? The getIndex() method is a TableCell method (inherited from IndexedCell).

My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incredible 2 cell phone and I can not transfer my photos from my cell phoen to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can no longer do so. i havenot upgraded to any new software.

My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incrdible 2 cell phone and therefore I can not transfer any photos from my cell phone to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can not do so now. I have not upgraded to any new software. My USB cable is plugged in properly and I just get an error message -- "No Android Device Found". What could be the problem?

I had the same issue with the Galaxy S4 trying to see what the hype was about and was my first and last android phone. With that being said unfortunately it is a hit or miss with the Mac recognizing an android device or not. It worked perfectly fine the first time around and then it stopped working for no apparent reason. Through trial and error nothing I did solved the issue. I did however plug it in my Mac and left it connected for about 30-40 min to charge for a bit and all of the sudden it recognizes the phone. So I just launched Android File Transfer and everything else became fluid after that. I have no explanation as to why it happened that way, but what I gathered from this is maybe you just have to let it sit for a minute while plugged in before the Mac recognizes it, after all they are opposing software. On a side note this is why I will always be an apple user, Iphones and the like never have this problem

I stream Internet raidiot from iPad air to Bluetooth speakers. Can anyone suggest the best EQ app to use to enhance the sound.
THanks

Yeah, I know I can restore it, but I might as well go ahead and try. I just finished a backup for icloud and itunes to make sure, I'll go ahead and restore it and set it up as new and see how that works. Seems like I have no other options at this point, I'd still like to know what they did with the Download tab in itunes store, if they removed it or if I'm just overlooking it.

Can I stream hbo go from iphone to apple tv

I want to know if I can view hbo go app from iphone and have it stream to my apple tv? I tried to use the hdmi plug adapter to plug into tv and the app won't support it, so I thought maybe I can stream it. Does anyone know?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
No
Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues).
I have created a User Tip to list Apps that have been tested with Video Airplay, if you have any Apps that you have tested please email me and I'll add them to the User Tip.

Can I stream showtime anytime from my ipad to apple tv?

Can I stream showtime anytime from my ipad to apple tv?

Can you get it to your iPad? You can try using AirPlay but it usally blocks copyrighted content, so the video might not come though.
