Streaming from the Sync'd computer

Hello, I was under the impression that I can use the computer that is sync'd to Apple TV to also stream to Apple TV.
Just bought an Apple TV and I have it setup to do a custom sync in iTunes with my entire pictures, movies, and tv shows getting sync'd. I have the music section set not to sync.
When I go to Apple TV it says "There are no songs on your Apple TV. Set up a connection with iTunes, or purchase music fomr the iTunes store. If you already setup iTunes, make sure it is open on your computer."
The statement above to me imples that if I open my iTunes that I ought to see my music. Am I wrong?
Also the "show only synced items on my Apple TV" is not checked. I can successfully sync to Apple TV and I can also play music from iTunes by selecting Apple TV from the combo box in the lower right hand side of iTunes.
Thanks for any help, Scott

This is a bug in the latest Apple TV software.
I'm not sure where that idea has arisen from.
Your synced library should also stream anything that isn't synced.
There might be other reasons why streaming isn't working here, but it isn't the latest 2.1 software that is the direct cause. This could be one reason.

  • Is it possible to sync AND stream from the same iTunes library?

    Hi,
    I am having trouble in setting up sync AND stream from the same iTunes library.
    Config :
    Mac OS - Latest update 5/6/09
    iTunes - Latest update 5/6/09
    Apple TV - Latest update 5/6/09
    I am able to either sync OR Stream from my iTunes library but not sync AND stream from the same iTunes library
    Let's say i want to sync :
    Go to Apple TV > Settings > computer
    Add Library (Not shared for Syncing)
    Enter passcode in iTunes and select the items to sync
    After sync is complete
    You can see photo, music & video in My Photos, My Music & My Videos.
    Let's say now my Apple TV is full
    So like to stream some other content
    Now
    Go to Apple TV > Settings > computer
    Add SHARED Library
    Passcode is shown in apple TV but not able to Enter it in iTunes (click to set link is not there next to Apple TV item under devices)
    To get that you have to right click the apple tv from the devices and select don't sync.
    You will get a message saying that all content in apple TV will get deleted.
    If you say yes then only the passcode screen for streaming is presented.
    So i am not able to sync AND stream from the same iTunes library.
    Any idea?

    1. The checkbox for "show only synced content" should be unchecked
    yes
    2. No need to Add Shared Library
    correct
    3. After syncing is complete as per the steps said before, if i have to see a synced content i go to My Movies for streamed content i have to go to Shared Movies?
    no... both synced and streamed content show up all together. there is no way to tell what content is synced or streamed when looking at it on the appletv. it is seemless as in there is no difference in how it is presented.
    you also need to make sure you are using "custom sync" rather than "automatic sync", as you can't select the "show only synced content" box when using "automatic sync".

  • Syncing & Streaming from the same Library? - Noob question

    Good Evening - I have a silly noob question that I can't believe I can't find the answer to on my own: I have been trying to determine if it is possible to sync and stream from the same library simultaneously.
    I purchased the 40GB aTV and it has been syncing just fine with my Windows iTunes. I told it not to sync a few albums I never listen to so I wouldn't have issues with other songs or movies. I am upgrading to a new iMac and I am am going to re-rip many of my existing CD's to get them into a consistent audio quality of 192 AAC or above. This is going to push my library size to well over the 40GB limit in just music, not including any movies or TV shows I choose to pull in.
    The manual does not make it obvious (or I am not reading clearly) what happens to items that don't sync over - I assume they are still playable but will have to stream. Is there anyway to mark "preferred" albums or artists that should get synced and not streamed in case the iTunes library is unavailable for whatever reason?
    Also, when I change libraries is the aTV going to completely re-sync even though the music is must going to be migrated?
    Thanks for taking the time to answer these silly questions.

    That's not quite what I was looking for.
    My question remains, what happens to the items that can't be synced from my main library to my aTV? My library is just a smidge bigger than the available space on the aTV and not everything syncs over. Does that mean I won't be able to play those items not synced from my main library...
    As my library grows I don't want to have to choose what does and doesn't get synced from my library by mood. For example, every year my wife buys new christmas music - right now I could exclude it and everything else gets copied over, but come thanksgiving that stuff better be there for her and I don't want to choose other music or movies to remove.
    I guess I will just have to play to try it out.

  • Cannot access conflicts unable to retrieve contact information from the sync server.

    ITunes error message Cannot access conflicts unable to retrieve contact information from the sync server.

    I got this advice from Gator5000e on Apple Supposrt Communities:
    I use Windows 7 so the path to find this file
    might be different under a different OS.
    Close iTunes. Search on the words "conflicts.synconflicts".
    I renamed it  to conflictsold.synconflicts the .synconflicts is the extension so you can't
    rename that.
    Then restarted Windows. As a test I made changes to a note in NOTES on each device. Then connected them one at a time to my computer which has iTunes 10 and Runs Windows 7, it worked !

  • While using the airport express can I listen to music streaming from the Internet?

    While using the airport express can I listen to music streaming from the Internet?

    The music must be in your iTunes library.
    Or, you can try to add a special application like Airfoil that may allow you to stream any audio signal on your computer to the AirPort Express. It might work.

  • Minimum requirements to stream from and sync to?

    I am considering purchasing an AppleTV and was hoping to use my old 533MHz G4 PowerMac as the "host" for my media. I'm running Tiger Server on it with a wire connection to my AirPort Extreme (802.11n). I know the PowerMac itself can't play the HD video based on iTunes 9 requirements but I am hoping I can plug my 1TB drive into it and still stream from and sync back to it.
    Any thoughts on the possibility this will work?

    as long as you can get the latest and greatest iTunes running on it, it should work fine...
    Min Rec for iTunes..
    Macintosh Software
    Mac OS X version 10.4.11 or later; Mac OS X version 10.5 or later is required to play an iTunes LP or iTunes Extras
    QuickTime 7.6 or later
    Support for HE-AAC requires QuickTime 7.6.4 and Mac OS X version 10.5 or later
    Safari 4 or later
    200MB of available disk space

  • Can two programs recive the same stream from the same port?

    I am sending a video from a server to my client on port 23456.
    On my client I am running a videoreciver that shows the video, and I also want to run a program that receives the strem with datagramSocket and writes out statistics.. Is this possible? or wil I get: can't open local dataport..
    do I have to runn it one by one.. and maybe send the vide two times?

    What you should do is just layer the functionalities, so that you have one class that reads the stream from the port and buffers it. You can then have multiple clients that read this buffered stream.

  • Error while executing SSIS package - Error: 4014, Severity:20, State: 11. A fatal error occurred while reading the input stream from the network. The session will be terminated (input error: 109, output error: 0)

    Hi,
    We are getting the following error when running our SSIS packages on Microsoft SQL Server 2012 R2 on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1:
    Error: 4014, Severity:20, State: 11.   A fatal error occurred while reading the input stream from the network. The session will be terminated (input error: 109, output error: 0)
    SQL Server Data Tools and SQL Server Database Engine reside on the same server.
    We tried the following:
    Disabling TCP Chimney Offload
    Installed Windows Server 2008 SP1
    Splitting our SSIS code into multiple steps so it is not all one large continuous operation
    The error occurs during a BulkDataLoad task.
    Other options we are investigating with the engineering team (out-sourced, so delayed responses):
    Firewall configurations (everything is local, so this should not make a difference)
    Disabling the anti-virus scanner
    Are there other things we can try?
    Any insight is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi HenryKwan,
    Based on the current information, the issue can be caused by many reasons. Please refer to the following tips:
    Install the latest hotfix based on your SQL Server version. Ps: there is no SQL Server 2012 R2 version.
    Change the MaxConcurrentExecutables property from -1 to another one based on the MAXDOP. For example, 8.
    Set "RetainSameConnection" Property to FALSE on the all the connection managers.
    Reference:
    https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/774370/ssis-packages-abort-with-unexpected-termination-message
    If the issue is still existed, as Jakub suggested, please provide us more information about this issue.
    Thanks,

  • How to get file input stream from the client machine by JSF Fileupload API?

    Dear Friends,
    How to get the file input stream from the client machine by JSF HtmlFileupload or fileupload API. At present, if i execute the file upload code in the client machine, it is able to get the local path of the file and looking for the file in server machine. So i am getting FileNotFoundException.
    E.g., If a file is located at client machine at following location means "C:\Test\Test.txt",
    uploadClass.getFileuploadComponent().getFilename().toString() returns "C:\Test\Test.txt". But it is looking for that file in server and throwing FileNotFoundException.
    Please post your replies soon.
    Thanks,
    JP

    Depends on which version of JSF you're using. If JSF 1.2, I wouldn't even bother trying to hack this into JSF itself unless you can use something like Seam 2 or richfaces.
    http://docs.jboss.org/richfaces/latest_3_3_X/en/devguide/html/rich_fileUpload.html
    http://docs.jboss.org/seam/2.2.1.CR3/reference/en-US/html/controls.html#d0e29259 (look for s:fileUpload)
    But if I were you, a simple non-jsf form with a servlet works best for taking file uploads.
    As for JSF 2.0, there are other ways of getting it done.

    You should be able to do this via the iPad directly.  Open the Photos application and the forward arrow, then select all of the photos you want to delete and click the red delete button.

  • How could I play and transmit a stream from the same camera

    How could I play and transmit a stream from the same camera?

    Hi,
    As I said, you can use the method getVisualComponent() of the Processor to get a preview Window.
    You create a Processor, prepare it to generate an appropriate output DataSource for what you want to do (saving, TXing, etc).
    Then, for this Processor you extract an AWT Component where the stream will be previewed using the method getVisualComponent().
    Some of the player examples in the JMF guide use this technique. I'm still not write my own player. I'm using an adaptation of the RTPPlayer, but I'm planning to use the above technique to create a Player where I can apply some effects to the stream and then save it if the user wants to.
    If someone already did that, please, correct me if my procedure isn't right!
    By the way, thanks for your help! I was using the DataSource returned from Manager.createCloneableDataSource only to create the clones. I was feeding my main Processor with the original DataSource. That was the problem!

  • Conflict Resolver Sync Error - Unable to retrieve conflict information from the sync server

    So I have been using iTunes with my iPhone 3GS and now my iPhone 4 to sync with my Outlook for many years now  and it has been flawless.
    I recently bought a new iPad and started syncing it as well.
    Now as of late, after every 2 or 3 syncs, I get an error from iTunes displaying the Conflict Resolver and it says there are 42 sync conflicts.
    When I try use the Review Now button it shows up and the issues are between my iPhone and Outlook and are only related to contacts.
    As soon as I try to choose which record to resolve, the window immediately disappears without giving me a chance to finish and I get another dialog window with the error:
    Unable to retrieve conflict information from the sync server.
    Please try again the next time the conflict resolver window is presented.
    When I try to sync again it seems to be fine.  But then after I sync my iPad and theny iPhone again it shows up and it still won't let me resolve the conflicts.
    I have tried the following:
    1) Rest Sync History on all devices
    2) I have had iTunes replace all the contacts on the iPad from iTunes
    3) I have changed the conflict resolver to only notify when 50% of the data will be changed
    I have had no such luck.
    If I add a contact to Outlook or to my iPhone and then sync it seems to be syncing the new addtions correctly.  However, I cannot get this issue with this 42 conflicts resolved for some reason.  This has been going on for a month now.

    Here is the solution. 
    Rationale: You want to be able to have the dates on your items (notes, contacts) on your iphone to be the same as on outlook.  This will eliminate any sync conflicts.  You will also notice that if you modify something on the iphone and sync, you will lose the modification you made.
    Steps:
    1) In outlook, export the data (contacts, notes) to a CSV file
    2) Delete you notes/contacts in outlook
    3) Sync your iphone and select replace information on this iPhone (in iTunes)
    4) Now your contacts and notes will be empty on both your iPhone and Outlook
    5) Now import your contacts and notes from the CSV files back into outlook.  What this does is put the current date and time on every individual item
    6) Sync your iPhone to iTunes normally
    7) everything will work correctly now with no sync issues and no conflicts.

  • Since I put my music on the cloud, I cannot access it without downloading each song individually. I thought I was going to be able to stream from the cloud without downloading.

    Since I put my music on the cloud, I cannot access it without downloading each song individually. I thought I was going to be able to stream from the cloud without downloading. Each download takes over a minute and I have 2000 songs! How can I just listen to my music again without downloading each and every song??? BTW, I purchased the iPhone 5S hoping that this issue would be solved with more memory - it's not. At this point I just want to remove the whole cloud-thing from my phone and go back to only having the songs on one device, no download required except the original iTunes purchase. How do I do this???

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It sounds as though you misunderstood the purpose of iTunes Match. You still need to have the content on the device to play it.
    However it's effectively no different than before in that you keep your most played content on your phone but are able to download stuff you rarely play should you ever wish to.
    There's no value whatsoever in iTunes Match unless your library doesn't fit on your phone.
