Streaming itunes from iOS device to mac computer's speaker

I acquired a good Logitech laptop speaker and wonder how I can stream itunes music wirelessly from my ipod touch to my MacBook Pro. There is lots of software doing it the other way round.

In case you're wondering where the File menu is (at least in the Windows version), you have to press Alt to access it; not sure why it's hidden in that way.

My router and access point reboots when trying to stream content from iOS devices or mac to my apple tv.

the zycel N series access point and cisco router reboots when i try to stream or mirror onto apple tv using air play. What can be the cause of the problem?

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Log out and log back in. Any change?
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

HT201302 How to importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to my computer with Windows 8?

myHow to importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to computer with Windows 8?
Nothing indicating iPhone 4s folder for images and videos in Win 8 anymore after plugged in USB cable to PC with the iPhone 4s. Nothing pop up anymore asking if I want to backup photos / videos to my PC (used to pop up in Win 7).
Where can I find this folder in iPhone 4s?
Thks!!

You can do it via your computer's iTunes. If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

HT201302 iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer, but I want to reverse the process and copy images from my desktop Windows PC to my new iPad Mini. Is this possible in some more direct way than through copying several

Instead of copying images (jpgs, etc) from my iPad Mini to my desktop PC, I'd like to do the opposite, that is, copy existing images from my PC files to my Mini without going through a multi-email process which involves resizing the images by experiment.
I hope someday Adobe Lightroom can add this feature, but I'll settle for some simple transfer, perhaps by cable between my PC and my Mini.

Stream Video From A Device to Mac Mini

Is it possible to capture a VGA display from some other device like a GPS, TV, etc. with a VGA output and display it on a Mac Mini in real time?

You would need an external capture card for recording live video streams.
Since the mini has to have an external display, why not use it?

How can iTune-synched photos be deleted from iOS devices if the iTunes computer is no longer available?

How can iTunes-synched photos be deleted from iOS devices if the iTunes computer is no longer available?
This can happen because the iOS device is on travels distant from the iTunes computer, because the iTunes computer is on travels distant from the iOS device, because the iTunes computer has failed permanently, because the iTunes computer has been stolen, etc.

KRDHarris-
The only possibility I can think of, is to consult with an Apple Store Genius. See if there is some kind of Apple proprietary software or diagnostic tool that can do it.
I do not think you want to, but you could go to Settings-General-Reset-Erase All Content and Settings. If you decided to do that, you might be able to restore from a previous backup when you get home.

How To : Sync playlists from iOS device back to itunes - Windows

How To : How To : Sync playlists from iOS device back to itunes - Windows (May work on Mac too)
NOTE - THIS WILL ONLY WORK IF YOU HAVE THE MUSIC FILES ON THE COMPUTER ALREADY
If your like me and format your computers only to discover that you've lost all those time consuming playlists that you spent hours on, well your in luck.
Without any Third-Pary programs it's possible to save those awesome playlists, and pull them back from the blink of oblivion.
Step 1 - Connect iDevice to your computer and then open iTunes.
Step 2 - Locate your iDevice on the left side bar on iTunes under the heading 'Devices', click the arrow on the left of the devices name and select a playlist.
Step 3 - Right-Click the selected playlist and choose 'Export playlist', Save it as a Text file.
Step 4 - In iTunes, up the top click 'File' then locate Library, move across to 'Import Playlist...', Select the playlist you just created and click open.
Step 5 - Your playlist will appear on the left side bar under the heading 'Playlists', Select the playlist and attempt to play one of the songs contained.
Step 6 - You would have been prompted that iTunes doesnt see the file, select 'Locate' and then go to the location of your music and locate the file.
(Sorry dont have an image for this one due to having all my music already found)
Step 7 - Doing this once will find all the music in the playlist given that it's in a similar location of the song you found.
Congrats you have successfully moved a playlist back from oblivion

There's a different method.
1. On iTunes -> Devices -> <your device> -> Summary -> Check Manually manage music and videos.
2. On iTunes -> Devices -> <your device> -> Summary -> uncheck Manually manage music and videos.
done.

Recovering photos from iOS back to Mac or windows

hi, my wife and I were recently burglarized and the robbers got both our macbook pros, which were not backed up
they they did not get our iPads or iPhones, however. i sync all my photos on my computer to both my iPad and iphone, is there a way I can get the photos off my iPad and back to a computer without having to select each one and email it or something tedious like that?

Be careful and do not sync the iPhone and iPad with iTunes, until you have downloaded the synced photos. Syncing again with a different computer will erase the photos. Also, do not enable iCloud Photo Library (Beta), if your devices have been upgraded to iOS 8, because enabling the iCloud Photo Library (Beta) will immediately delete the synced photos.
is there a way I can get the photos off my iPad and back to a computer without having to select each one and email it or something tedious like that?
Apple recommends only the "Something tedious" (iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support) , so try the third party apps.
You can't reimport pictures synced from your computer to your device back to your computer. You can only import pictures in the Camera Roll or Saved Photos from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device:
Email them from the device to yourself.
Copy them from the emails to your computer.
On iPhone and iPod touch using iOS 5 and iOS 6, all synced photos will appear in a unified category called photo library.
You could also try to share the photos to a shared photo stream, if your iPhone and iPad support that.

Add / Delete Photos from iOS device

Why won't iPhoto allow me to manage my iOS devices (iPad2, iPhone 4) like an external drive where I can Drag & Drop files into the deivce from my MacBook Air laptop - or, highlight a photo / video file on the iOS device in the iPhoto Browser and click "Delete"??!!
Currently I see that iPhoto will take images OFF the iOS device (placing them on my laptop using DROPBOX???????? Why?), but I cannot place an image ONTO the phone from my laptop with Drag & Drop, NOR can I highlight an image in the "Device" gallery from iPhoto and simply click "Delete".
Should be simple enough.

From the iPhoto help:
Sync photos and video clips using iTunes
Connect your iOS device to your computer.Note: If Wi-Fi syncing is on in iTunes, you don’t need to connect the device to your computer, but they both need to be on the same Wi-Fi network, and the computer needs to be on. For more information on Wi-Fi syncing with iTunes, see your device’s user guide.
In iTunes, select your device (below Devices), and click Photos at the top of the window.
Select “Sync Photos from” and select the photos you want to sync to your device.On a Mac, selecting an album or event organizes the photos as an album or event in iPhoto.On a Windows computer, selecting a folder organizes the photos as an album in iPhoto.
If you want to sync video clips, select the “Include videos” checkbox.
Click Apply, and click Sync.
When the sync is complete, click next to your device, and disconnect your device.

Can I search email archive on iCloud server from iOS device, or can I only search what it has downloaded locally?

Can I search email archive on iCloud server from iOS device, or can I only search what it has downloaded locally?
I currently have an iPhone and iPad, and am soon changing over to a Mac. When that happen I'd like to try to see what I can migrate over from the Google ecosystem to the iCloud ecosystem.
1) Currently I have the Gmail iOS app (a webapp container) that can search server-side of several years of email archive. Can iCloud do this using the iOS native mail application? Or is the search just limited to what the device has downloaded locally?
2) Do I have to use a @me.com address for the full iCloud email sync to take place between server, Mac, and iOS devices?
Believe it or not I've read quite a bit about the iCloud services, but the answers to these questions were far from clear. Many thanks for the help.

2) iCloud only syncs email between .me/.mac addresses. For other accounts like google, you set up the account in the mail app and if they're IMAP accounts, you can sync between the google server and any devices you have defined that account on.
I'm not absolutely sure about 1) since I haven't had to search going back years - I use MailSteward for that on the mac. On my iPhone/iPad, when I go into a mailbox and the emails are not immediately available, it downloads them. I suspect for a search, you need the emails downloaded.

Shoeb, hi.
Thanks for replying and apologies for my tardiness in responding. I have just completed a re-creation of my web page using CSS/HTML rather than XML/XSLT and now I find that when saving in MHT format the watermark/background image is saved, which is nice, but trying to save it as 'webpage complete' under 'save as' in the browser still does not work. (For those who are new to Firefox, MHT files are not supported by the browser, but using the FF extention UnMHT one can open such files and save web documents as MHT files, meaning no accompanying folder is required to properly view the file.)
