Setting up Apple TV with direct tv and surround sound from stereo

I am just setting up.  I don't have a audio cord that leaves my tv.  It is in seperate room.  Audio leaves dish box to audio.  Only getting sound on tv speakers, not surround speakers

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I assume you are saying you can't connect to iTunes regardless of how you set it up.
Do you have any internet services working on the Apple TV.

    when you open the app store scroll down to the bottom it will display the apple id currently in use, change it to your normal apple id email

  • How are businesses handling the "APPLE LOCK" on company cell phones when an employee leaves and their phone is unusable because the euipment was set up on the employee's personal Apple Account with their ID and password?

    How are businesses handling the "APPLE LOCK" on company cell phones when an employee leaves and their phone is unusable because the euipment was set up on the employee's personal Apple Account with their ID and password?  When an employee leaves a business and the company has purchased the equipment, the company should have the rights to reissue the equipment and Apple should provide an alternative to unlock the equipment from the employee's personal APPLE account and password so the company (that purchased the equipment) can reissue the line and equipment to another employee.

    If you can prove ownership to Apple, they may be able to help you.
    The best way of handing things would be strong policies requiring that the equipment be turned in in a usable state. i.e. not activation locked. Failing this, the employee should be charged the cost of the replacement phone. Held from their final paycheck if required.

  • HT5706 I am trying to set up Apple TV with my Uverse WiFi, but I get errors when entering my password.  One site said that Apple TV doesn't work with WPA which Uverse uses.  Is there anyway around this or will Uverse and Apple TV just not work together.

    Trying to set up Apple TV with ATT Uverse.  I get errors when trying to enter my WiFi password.  One site says that Apple TV doesn't work with Uverse because it uses WPA for encryption.  If true, does that mean Uverse subscribers cannot use Apple TV?

    No, that's a rather silly conclusion.
    There are two options:
    stop using the crappy router provided by the ISP.
    Physically connect the ATV to the router via Ethernet.

  • How can I set up company ipads with preloaded apps and files?

    I want to set up multiple ipads with preloaded apps and files before handing them out to employees.  We intendend the employee to be able to install their own content on the device using their own itunes account.  When I attempted to connected to a pc using a personal account my the content obtained by the company account was prompted to be removed.  Was this done incorrectly?  Is there a way I can set up company ipads with preloaded apps and files so that they don't get removed when the user connects them to another computer with another itunes account?
    Right now we are looking to have the employee use their own itunes account and reimburse the expense for the needed apps, but this could be an issue if they leave the company and the device is reassigned.

    Yes this is possible. I've been using Apple Configurator to do this (you could also use iTunes to restore backups). The trick is, you need to tell the end user not to sync apps within his/her iTunes on his/her computer. You will need to instruct the end user to download apps OTA using the App Store on the iPad rather than with iTunes on his/her computer. If the user tries to sync apps on his/her computer, it will wipe out apps that you installed. However if the user downloads apps OTA, your apps and the user downloaded apps will both stay on the iPad.
    When you hand the iPad to the user, be sure to log out of your company Apple ID on the iPad at Settings -> Store and have them sign in with their personal Apple ID. That way it is all set for them to download apps under their own Apple ID.

    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

    Are you wanting to import iCal to the MacBook Air. Since iCloud doesn't work with 10.6 OSX you probably don't have any data in iCloud yet?

  • Mavericks will not sync Apple Contacts with Google, Linkedin, and Facebook?

    I just upgraded to Mavericks. Here is what I find shocking...
    1. Mavericks will NOT sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    2. During the upgrade, Mavericks linked some of my Apple Contact cards with Google Contacts, but not all of them. It need to be clarified that linking is not syncing. Worse, it corrupted data, and deleted some of the contacts on Google Contacts.
    3. Similarly, Apple Contacts will not sync with Linkedin or Facebook Contacts.
    4. When I contacted Apple, Level 1 support had not idea and assumed that adding a Google Account with automatically sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts as it did in OS Mountain Lion. Level 2 support did not have much of an idea either, but called me this morning to say that the matter has been escalated, and confirmed that OS X Maverick does NOT sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts.
    CAUTION before upgrading to Mavericks:
    5. Your Google Contacts / Android devices will not be updated by Apple Contacts, and vice-versa.
    6. Your Facebook / Linkedin contats will not be updated by Apple Contacts, and vice-versa.
    The workaround:
    7. Before upgrade, ensure that your Mountain Lion or earlier address book in synced with Google Contacts.
    8. After upgrade, go to Contacts > Preferences > General > Default Account, and choose your Google Account as your default account. You will now add New Contact (or update existing Google Contacts) in Google Contacts, which your android devices can sync with. You will also see your Google Contacts in Apple Contacts. However, Apple Contacts will NOT sync with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    Welcome to Mavericks...

    With all due respect @McFly_Marty, kindly do not mislead readers. As funny as it may sound, but you have been taken for a royal ride by Apple Support. Keep in mind that the tough taskmaster Steve Jobs, is no longer there, and it is no surprise that Apple’s innovations are sliding.
    You probably have chosen Google as your default account under "Contacts > Preferences > General > Default Account”.
    Now, when you add New Contact (or update existing Google Contacts) in Google Contacts, you will also see your Google Contacts in Apple Contacts. However, Apple Contacts will NOT sync with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    Try disabling your Google account in Apple Contacts, and all your new contacts are no longer in Apple contacts. Therefore Apple contacts is not syncing with Google Contacts.
    Therefore, read the following from my original post again.
    “1. Mavericks will NOT sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    4. When I contacted Apple, Level 1 support had no idea and assumed that adding a Google Account will automatically sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts as it did in OS Mountain Lion.

  • Is the apple laptop with 4gb ram and i5 better than other laptop with 6gb ram and i5

    is the apple laptop with 4gb ram and i5 better than other laptop with 6gb ram and i5

    Well it depends on the age.     http://www.everymac.com/ should help you identify the age of the two models.
    Apple may use two processors called i5, but newer models have different optimizations than older models.
    The processor is usually not the main affect on speed.  RAM helps, but barely unless everything is on an SSD already.   Hard drive speed is usually the limiting factor of speed on computers.   eSATA hard drives with higher RPM can often yield the fastest results because notebook hard drives tend to be slower that are not SSD, but for those you need either Express/34 or Thunderbolt based adapters.

    how to delete forecast entries with zero current and original qty from a particular forecast set which span across multiple forecasts

    Hi,
    There is no way to delete those records selectively from front end.
    The best possible way is to delete the records from MRP_FORECAST_DATES tables from backend.
    Hope that helps!!

  • When booting up get flashing apple folder with question mark and no sign, why?

    When booting up get flashing apple folder with question mark and no sign, why?  Computer will not open up.  I have tried resetting the Pram.  I can access the hard drive from another computer holding down the t key when starting up the Macbook Pro.  What to do next?

    The cable connecting the HDD to the logic board may be faulty.  If the internal HDD can boot the MBP when in an external enclosure, that will confirm this issue.  If not, the HDD may need to be replaced.
    Ciao.
