Serious help with "Syncing selectable content" please...

This is a fairly large concern for me right now regarding my Apple TV since I didn't really buy ATV to stream anything, so I would be so grateful for some help because the Apple sources I've consulted doesn't go into detail on this feature.
I have my ATV set for everything (movies/TV Shows/etc.) to "Sync selected content" because I don't have enough space on my Macs' HD to fit all my video content on it at once, so what I'm doing is Syncing it to ATV's hard drive to store it for future watches and then deleting it off of my Mac's HD. Well I synced the 1st movie well and fine (took a bit, but that's another whole thing) looked really good and played great so I stopped it very pleased and took it off of my HD on my Mac and started to sync the next movie. Well now the 1st movie is gone. Great. I'm syncing selectable conent, why is it still mirroring my iTunes library? This should work like Manually updating an iPod where I don't need to have everything in my iTunes for it to be on my iPod HD; correct? I mean ATV has a 40gb hard drive for a reason: so that I can store content locally on it. Some help ASAP would be great. I'm a bit confused and frustrated right now. Thank you all.

That's not how it works. It's more like the hard drive on the AppleTV is a temporary holding place for material that is in your iTunes library. The intention is to allow you to play stuff without having your computer turned on all the time. But it is assumed that all the material is stored in your library.

  • Needing help with syncing without erasing PLEASE!!

    My computer had to be reset to factory settings. I re-downloaded itunes and attempted to sync my ipad but it says it will erase my ipad & replace with whats in the itunes since it is synced with another library. This is the same computer that it was synced with originally but as i said i had to reset it. I have transfered all my purchases but I have a lot of music and some movies that i didnt purchase that i would like to keep. I checked the manually manage music box but it still says the same thing. Can anyone help please???!!!!

    You should be able to:
    Disable automatic syncing of devices (Edit > Preferences > Devices)
    Backup the device to the new installation (Right-click device > Back Up)
    Transfer your purchases into your authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in the apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

    I had written a select query as below :
    select single vkorg abgru from ZADS into it_rej.

    What should be my select query here?
    Please suggest....
    Any suggestion will be apprecaiated!

  • I need help with a SELECT query - help!

    Hello, I need help with a select statement.
    I have a table with 2 fields as shown below
    Name | Type
    John | 1
    John | 2
    John | 3
    Paul | 1
    Paul | 2
    Paul | 3
    Mark | 1
    Mark | 2
    I need a query that returns everything where the name has type 1 or 2 but not type 3. So in the example above the qery should bring back all the "Mark" records.
    Thanks,
    Ian

    Or, if the types are sequential from 1 upwards you could simply do:-
    SQL> create table t as
      2  select 'John' as name, 1 as type from dual union
      3  select 'John',2 from dual union
      4  select 'John',3 from dual union
      5  select 'Paul',1 from dual union
      6  select 'Paul',2 from dual union
      7  select 'Paul',3 from dual union
      8  select 'Paul',4 from dual union
      9  select 'Mark',1 from dual union
    10  select 'Mark',2 from dual;
    Table created.
    SQL> select name
      2  from t
      3  group by name
      4  having count(*) <= 2;
    NAME
    Mark
    SQL>Or another alternative if they aren't sequential:
    SQL> ed
    Wrote file afiedt.buf
      1  select name from (
      2    select name, max(type) t

  • Need help with syncing, PLEASE

    Need to sync 2 iphones (one a 4g other a 3g) each one to a separate computer (wife's desktop with win 7, I have a laptop win vista) and I have only one itune account. I would like to be able to sync all apps to each phone, BUT I only want to sync her contact/address book to hers and only my contacts /address book to my phone.
    Is it POSSIBLE?
    Any suggestion and help will be appreciated...
    Don

    Since all 3rd party apps are available in the iTunes library on your computer and you are sharing the same iTunes account, she can sync iTunes content only with iTunes on your computer - music, movies, tv shows, and 3rd party apps without syncing contacts with a supported address book application on your computer. She won't have sync contacts selected under the Info tab for her iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your computer. She can sync contacts only with a supported address book application on her computer. She won't have Sync Music, Sync Movies, Sync TV Shows, and Sync Apps under these tabs for her iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on her computer.

  • Help with syncing photos please

    Ok, so iam having problems with syncing a folder from my computer to my iphone. Once done syncing the photos it makes 2 albums on my iphone, one with the name of my folder and one with the name "Photo Library" they both have the same photos on them, how do I get the unwanted one off?

    This is normal and cannot be changed.
    All photos transferred to the iPhone are stored and will be available in the iPhone's Photo Library.
    If you transfer 3 folder names or albums that contain photos say 10 photos each, it will be as follows:
    Photo Library (30)
    Photo Album 1 (10)
    Photo Album 2 (10)
    Photo Album 3 (10)
    With the Photo Album names to be whatever you name the folders which contain the photos transferred to your iPhone.
    This way you can view all photos available in all albums by selecting the iPhone's Photo Library or view the photos available in a particular folder or album only by selecting the album.
    Photos in the folders or albums are not duplicated. They include a pointer to the original photo contained in the iPhone's Photo Library.

  • Help with image selection/fade

    Hi, I'm using Flash 8 and I'm a newbie to actionscript.
    I have to create a flash document that will allow me to swap
    out colors, patterns, and hardware on our collars. I found a thread
    posted
    here
    that was pretty much what I was looking for. I altered the files to
    use my images, so I have the transitions working for colors. When
    you select an image from one set of buttons, I would like that
    image to stay put while you make your selection from the second set
    of buttons. Right now, you can click on button 1 in the top left
    corner to select a small collar and as soon as you click the large
    button 1 on the right, the small image disappears and vice versa.
    How would I make the small collar selection stay put when you
    click on the large collar buttons?
    In the end I will want it to work like
    this
    Could someone look at my
    file and see if
    they can give me some insight as to what is wrong?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your response. I wanted to show you the latest
    files to
    get some feedback on the best route to go. Will your method work
    for the color buttons rollovers in this as well. I'm really stuck
    at this point and could use some serious help.
    What I want to happen is this:
    When you roll over a color swatch: the black outline around
    the color swatch fades in
    When you click and release: the collar image changes and the
    black outline around the color swatch stays on until you click
    another color swatch
    When you rollout: the outline fades out unless the swatch was
    clicked.
    Please look at the files to see what is happening now.
    I could really use some help. If you don't have time to check
    out the files, I also attached the code to review if that is
    faster.
    Thanks,

  • Need help with threads?.. please check my approach!!

    Hello frnds,
    I am trying to write a program.. who monitors my external tool.. please check my way of doing it.. as whenever i write programs having thread.. i end up goosy.. :(
    first let me tell.. what I want from program.. I have to start an external tool.. on separate thread.. (as it takes some time).. then it takes some arguments(3 arguments).. from file.. so i read the file.. and have to run tool.. continously.. until there are arguments left.. in file.. or.. user has stopped it by pressing STOP button..
    I have to put a marker in file too.. so that.. if program started again.. file is read from marker postion.. !!
    Hope I make clear.. what am trying to do!!
    My approach is like..
    1. Have two buttons.. START and STOP on Frame..
    START--> pressed
    2. check marker("$" sign.. placed in beginning of file during start).. on file..
         read File from marker.. got 3 arg.. pass it to tool.. and run it.. (on separate thread).. put marker.. (for next reading)
         Step 2.. continously..
    3. STOP--> pressed
         until last thread.. stops.. keep running the tool.. and when last thread stops.. stop reading any more arguments..
    Question is:
    1. Should i read file again and again.. ?.. or read it once after "$" sign.. store data in array.. and once stopped pressed.. read file again.. and put marker ("$" sign) at last read line..
    2. how should i know when my thread has stopped.. so I start tool again??.. am totally confused.. !!
    please modify my approach.. if u find anything odd..
    Thanks a lot in advance

    Hello,
    I have no experience with threads or with having more than run "program" in a single java file. All my java files have the same structure. This master.java looks something like this:
    ---master.java---------------------------------------------------
    import java.sql.*;
    import...
    public class Master {
    public static void main(String args []) throws SQLException, IOException {
    //create connection pool here
    while (true) { // start loop here (each loop takes about five minutes)
    // set values of variables
    // select a slave process to run (from a list of slave programs)
    execute selected slave program
    // check for loop exit value
    } // end while loop
    System.out.println("Program Complete");
    } catch (Exception e) {
    System.out.println("Error: " + e);
    } finally {
    if (rSet1 != null)
    try { rSet1.close(); } catch( SQLException ignore ) { /* ignored */ }
    connection.close();
    -------end master.java--------------------------------------------------------
    This master.java program will run continuously for days or weeks, each time through the loop starting another slave process which runs for five minutes to up to an hour, which means there may be ten to twenty of these slave processes running simultaneously.
    I believe threads is the best way to do this, but I don't know where to locate these slave programs: either inside the master.java program or separate slave.java files? I will need help with either method.
    Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  • Need help with flash player installation please !!!!

    Hello,
    I need help with my flash player installation because every time I access a movie this is the message I receive. 
    This content on Xfinity TV is not available for viewing with Chrome's "Incognito" mode. To play this video using Chrome, please view this page without "Incognito" mode.
    Still having problems? Try resetting your Flash player license.

    Incognito mode is a Google Chrome setting when you open a new window (Cmd+Shift+N on a Mac Ctrl+Shift+N on Windows) It opens a "private" window with no cookies and no tracking. The problem with it is that when you disable cookies, your license files are not sent to the site (whetehr it's YouTube or xFinity or any other that uses license files for paid content)  and it treats you as if you're a first time visitor. Paid videos won't play wihtout the cookies sending the license file info.
    This isn't a Flash Player setting. It's in Chrome. I did some research and according to Google, "Incignito" mode is off by default, and can ONLY be activate by the keyboard shortcut. There IS a way to disable it from the registry http://dev.chromium.org/administrators/policy-list-3#IncognitoModeAvailability

  • Serious trouble with syncing

    A few weeks ago I've discovered that my 8G Nano won't sync after I plug it in, it will just freeze and do nothing - it will sync automaically when it's first plugged in, but if I want to sync it again I have to unplugg it and then plugg in again.
    And today it converted all my music to a select playlist because I had no free space, and now I can't reset or restore it. It says that "all playlists no longer exist" and everytime I unplugg it and plugg in again, the settings will be just the same, with the select playlist.
    What can I do??

    Hi,
    Thanks for the response.
    Well, I have it turned on, if that's what you mean. On both the phone and the computer (when phone is hooked up) I have the message that the last time I synced was 9/17/13. Every once in a while, while charging the phone overnight, with wireless on, I get a message saying that in order for iCloud backup to work the phone must be plugged in and connected to a wireless network. Apparently there is a failure to communicate with the mother ship, despite my following instructions.
    My suspicion is that this failure is related to the failure to sync with iTunes, but I'm just guessing.
