Unable to Choose Photos with Apple TV

I am trying to "Choose Photos to Share with Apple TV". However, I get the following error message
Photos folder syncing has been disabled for the Apple TV “” because the folder “(Unknown)” cannot be found.
Any help would be apprecited.

Since the problem you are having is with iTunes this would be better posted there.  Is this a first generation ATV?  From the error it sounds like the option is selected to sync ATV with photos from a specific folder, and iTunes is not able to find that folder.  If you look what folder is selected.  Have you checked to see if that folder is present?

  • Sharing photos with Apple TV

    Since updating to iTunes v.11.3 I have been unable to share my Aperture photos with my Apple TV. After Home Sharing has been turned on I try to choose which photos to share. The Photos Sharing Preferences window opens and the little gear begins to turn and turn and turn and turn... It never shows my photos lists.
    I've tried repairing permissions, rebooting my computer, quiting and restarting iTunes, and quiting and restarting Home Sharing.
    Any ideas!

    I've solved the problem.
    In Photos, Select Preferences.  In the General Tab, make sure that the path to your external Photos library shows in the Library Location.  Then click on the Use as System Library Photo Library button.
    In iTunes 12.1.12, you will now be able to select your specific albums as before.
    I updated my Apple TVs to the latest updates.
    The specific photo albums can be accessed in Apple TV now.

  • Unable to download photos to Apple Store

    unable to upload photos to AppleStore.  Keeps stating there is an error.  I have tried a lot of things but no success!

    Please explain with some detail - the Apple store is either the online store for computers, etc. or the app store is where you purchase software. You usually do not upload photos to the store.

  • How can i see photos with apple tv from my time capsule files?

    I have photos in my time capsule and i want to display them on my apple tv without a computer. Some sort of browsing in my time capsule from apple tv. Both are in the same wifi net, which uses time capsule as basis,

    Unfortunately, you cannot do that. In order to share photos with your Apple TV, you need to select them through the advanced menu of iTunes on your computer.

  • Problem syncing photos with Apple TV and iPod

    Ever since I connected my Apple TV I have had problems syncing photos with both my iPod and my Apple TV.
    The Apple TV gives me an error (no desciption) when I try to sync photos. The iPod gives me an error 39.
    iPhotos is working fine. I rebuilt the library using the rebuild library feature and this has not fixed the problem.
    I also rebuilt my iTunes library without success in fixing the problem.
    How does it sync? Is there some kind of syncing file I need to delete that may be corrupt?
    Does anyone have any ideas about what I could try?

    Just a suggestion,
    for a speedier and better informed reply, post your question in the AppleTV forums.

  • Share photos with Apple TV

    Trying to share some photos from the new Photos OS X app through my Apple TV (3rd gen).  With iPhotos, I used to just use the photo stream, but now Photo Stream is no longer available with Photos (at least I can't find it if it does exist).
    I can select a "shared album", but I would like to create a shared album, just for the Apple TV and no one else.  Currently to create a shared album, you need to share it with "someone" in contacts, or am I missing something fundemental?
    Help would be appreciated
    THX

    I was able to finally get photos shared to my Apple TV (3rd gen) by creating a shared album and leaving the invite box open.  All I did was name the album and then click Create.  Photos then creates a little cloud called "Activity" and a folder called "Photos" in the sidebar under "Shared" that shows the photos you have added. 
    Now the odd thing is that I added about 50 photos to that album....and now it's up to 272 photos!  I have not added more, it's growing on it's own!?!  Not sure what it's doing really, but it's getting bigger as I type!  It's now over 300!  It's....IT'S ALIVE!!!! 
    But I still don't see Photos in iTunes to be shared via Home Sharing.  Am I doing something wrong?
    Create a shared album
    Select the photos and video clips you want to share.
    Click the Share button in the toolbar and choose iCloud Photo Sharing, then click New Shared Album.
    Type a name for the shared album, then type the email addresses of the people you want to share the album with.
    Not really sure why Apple changed this, I personally don't want my photos on the cloud.  This seems like a huge step backwards to me.

  • What are the options for viewing photos with Apple TV 2?

    I have an old Apple TV, and load the family photos on the Apple TV itself. On the Apple TV 2, I know you can connect to MobileMe and Flickr.
    Aside from MobileMe and Flickr, are there other options for viewing photos on the new Apple TV? Can you stream them from a Mac, or can you stream them from an iPhone/iPad?
    If so, how is this initiated from the Apple TV, Mac, or iPhone/iPad?

    You can stream from a Mac via itunes selection (iPhoto events or a folder) - it has 8GB of solid state temporary storage, but quite how things are cached/flushed from here is a bit of a mystery - you cannot say designate 2GB to hold photos or prioritise photos over other material.
    Even rentals seem to flush if you've watched them and they haven't expired - relative fell asleep during a rental yesterday so i suggested she watched it today and it downloaded from scratch again, and the AppleTV hadn't had anything but music playing in the interim. Silly this really. There's a post on another section where someone used 17GB of their data allowance to watch a HD movie as it kept reloading!
    Yes you can stream photos from iPod/iPad using Airplay, but to be honest i don't think ATV2 offers that much over ATV1 for photos (yet anyway), and in some ways it's inferior.
    ATV2 is far more responsive/uses less power etc but I'm not convinced you get anything groundbeaking unless you have a lot of guests who could use it via Airplay from their iphones (and with ipads currently without cameras, photos would have to come from somewhere else in the first place).

  • Having trouble with opening homesharing for photos with apple TV

    Everytime I open homesharing for apple TV in Itunes I just get the grey spinning wheel.  I have my photos on the wireless time capsule with wifi

    I've also noticed this started happening... Its something with iTunes, because both my old Apple TV's and my iPhone and iPad all show multiple events for the same event... Lots of them! So many its hard to tell what to sync now. When I click on any of my devices photos tab in iTunes they are all exactly the same. Not sure how to fix it...

  • Unable to log on with apple ID - error message "an unknown error has occurred"

    When I try and log on to apple website using my apple ID, I get an error message saying "an unknown error has occurred".  How can I fix this?
    I've changed my password several times and was able to successfully make a purchase from Itunes using new password, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

    For whatever reason, I can now log in to the apps store with one of  my ids. It says my other account no longer exists so I can not update pages and numbers. It will not let me rebuy these programs under the working account because my computer recognizes that I bought them before.

  • Syncing photos with apple tv

    I have all of my photos stored on an external hard drive and cannot get atv to sync them. This used to work but since upgrading to leopard I can no longer sync the photos on the external hard drive. The sync symbol is rolling in itunes and I get no error message or symbol, but the photos are not on atv. Has anyone had trouble syncing photos stored on an external hard drive?

    I have tried turning off all firewalls with no luck. Then I tried setting all firewalls to specifically allow I-Tunes, still no luck. My photos are stored in separate files on the external hard drive but I am not sure how to check permission on the external hard drive. And I am not sure about creating a second library. How would I do this?
