Unable to stream Videos from Mac and IPad 3 to TV

My Apple TV (1.Generation) is starting to work bad after an update.
I am no longer able to stream videos from IMac nor IPad 3 or IPhone 4.
Can anybody give me a help.
Thanks.

Not sure if I'm missing something here. AirPlay is the newer audio video streaming technology Apple implemented into their devices. Airplay video from a computer requires a newer Mac running Mountian Lion and a 2G or higher ATV. Streaming video from iTunes to a 1G ATV still works, it is similar to AirPlay but is technically not the same thing.
Streaming video from an iPad or iPhone to an Apple TV is using AirPlay and also requires using a 2 or 3G ATV. These are hardware limitations no HDMI cable can fix.
If you can not stream video from iTunes by selecting it on your Apple TV you have a problem. If you are trying to send video to the ATV by selecting it on a device you need a new ATV and/or computer.

How can i stream video from mac os x 10 using roku to my tv?

how can i stream video from mac os x 10 using roku to my tv?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
OS X can't write in NTFS disks. If you want to write in NTFS drives, you have to use a third-party app like Paragon for NTFS, being this application the best one to write in those disks.
Another option is to format the external disk in FAT32 or exFAT on a PC, so you will be able to read and write in Macs and PCs without having to use third-party apps. Do it on a PC and copy the files of your external drive to the internal disk first

How do i copy The iMovie video from Mac, to iPad mini?

How do i copy The iMovie video from Mac, to iPad mini?

The easiest way is to firstly export the movie to iTunes (Share > iTunes), then sync the iPad Mini with iTunes. In iTunes, include your movie as an item to be synced. After syncing, on the iPad it will appear in the Videos app. That's how I do it for my wife's Mini.
If you need help with exporting or with syncing to iTunes, please post back.
I'm caught up with something else at the moment, otherwise I'd give you full instructions now (just wanted to get this to you quickly).

Streaming video from mac to mac and from mac to Apple tv

I just purchased a iMac i7 with Snow Leaopard. Until now I were able to stream video from my MAC to Apple TV and to my other MAC wirelessly.
From my new iMac I cannot stream. Not to Apple TV (via iTunes) or from MAC to MAC.
A bit annoying when it worked fine before I got new hardware and soft ware.
Network is through a Timecapsule. I can still stream video (720p) from my Powerbook to my Macbook Pro (Leopard).
This be a iTunes 9.1 issue also.
Anyone else had this kind of problems.

Some people forget that AppleTVs do not appear automatically in new iTunes libraries, especially if they originally configured it once a long time ago for another library.

Can't view photos or stream videos from websites on iPad 3

When I go to a website with safari, I can't stream video or view photo galleries. It tells me that I need adobo flash player. That is not supported for this device. How do I see photoographs or stream video from websites??

Jenpre.... keep your head down in that hurricane, and good luck. I hope it moves away soon for you all.
When I say "more modern", from what I've read many sites recognise that Flash can be a problem on mobile devices (phones and tablets) because it's very power hungry. So, if I understand things correctly, many sites are putting up html5 versions, which is supposed to be much easier on computers / devices. Quite oftne when I go to a site on my iPad it auto-diverts to the "mobile" version of the site, and I haven't found a single case where I can't see a video. To be truthful, even if not directed to a mobile version, I don't have much trouble with any of the sites I visit..... I can see most videos and pretty much all graphics, the same as I can on my Mac, which does run Flash.
Still, I'm sure a computing expert will know much more.
Good luck in that hurricane....
PS... there are quite a few good hurricane tracking Apps you know....

Making continuity calls from mac and ipad

Hi,
I'm not able to make calls from my mac and ipad. I get a message that says your iphone is not configured, but I have done all the procedure required for that. I'm guessing that facetime is required for this feature to work and I don't have facetime on my iphone since I bought it with carrier contract in UAE.
I'm having Macbook pro with retina mid 2014 (os x yosemite), iphone 5s (ios 8) and ipad mini (ios 8).
Please help me if there is a way to get around with that.
Cheers

If you do not have Facetime on your phone, then that particular feature will not work.
I would send feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
Requesting they look into alternatives for those who do not have access to Facetime.

Call from Mac and iPad - wifi requirements?

Hello all,
I can see on forums, that a LOT of people have problems with calling from their Macs and iPads using iPhone when on same wifi network.
All of "solutions" that are posted here or on apple help site is that you should restart your iphone, turn on and off cellular calls in facetime and it should work. Yes that is nice, but from technical point of wiew its useless as pair of winter boots on summer camp.
I made this thing working on my home network wifi, when I disabled all security permissions and allowed ports on my wifi router. Then it started working, I was able to call from my macbook pro (2014) and iPad Air.
The real problem is, that when I come to other wifi network, such as my work one, I am not able to get it to work. I have a possibility to configure every single wifi network in our company, but I am not able to get it to work. I have no idea why. I was sitting on it and testing it whole day, but with no end.
I think that there is one thing from Apple support we need and those are: SPECIFICS. Which port is it running on? What services is it usings? What should be accesible? I am sorry but one sentence which says "they only have to be on one wifi network" is not enough.
Please leave out comments how to fix this like: being in two networks, restarting devices, turning something on devices off or on and signing out and so on..
If someone else already figured this out, I would be eternaly grateful.
Thanks a lot!

If you do not have Facetime on your phone, then that particular feature will not work.

Unabled to stream video from iPad with AirPlay

I'm having some difficulties getting video to stream from an iPad to my 2nd generation AppleTV over AirPlay. The iPad is able to stream audio just fine, but does not stream video through the built-in Video app.
When selecting to play the video to the Apple TV, the iPad screen stops playing the video and changes to the Gray screen that says the video is playing to the AppleTV, however it is not playing to the TV.
Both devices are running the most up-to-date software revisions. I have tried plugging the AppleTV into the router via ethernet cable to ensure that it's not a wireless problem, but this does not change anything. The only possible reason I am able to think of is that the wireless network these devices are using are not connected to the Internet.
If anyone else has suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks

I'm running iTunes on my iMac, using an Airport Extreme, and two Airport Express's..one configured as a repeater, and the other as a remote speaker. I'm using an ATV1 running 24/7 as an audio server, broadcasting music to the Airport Express. I have an ATV2 in my bedroom connected to the big screen there. That's the one that does not forward video from my iPhone 3GS to the ATV2, ONLY audio? Is it possible, that the system can't support the ATV1 running AirTunes w/remote speakers, AND AirPlay on an ATV2 simultaneously??
BTW, I found that the song title that popped up in the title box happened to be the tune that my iTunes on the iMac happened to be sitting on (wasn't playing though). It put that in the same box on the screen as the Movie title I was playing from the iPhone 3GS over AirPlay? Sure that's not a bug?

Fuzzy previews / thumbnails and blank videos from iPhone and iPad imports

When I sync and download images from both my iPad and iPhone the thumbnails / previews are showing up fuzzy and I also am unable to play the downloaded videos.
Any thoughts? Thanks!
Please see screenshot below:

Your screenshot does not show for me, sorry. Can you please try to post it again?
What is the pixel size of your iPhone images and iPad images? Do you have an iPad 3 with a large pixel size 2592 × 1936 (5.0 MP) or an earlier version with lower pixel size? Then the images might display fuzzy on a large screen.
How do you transfer the images from your IOS devices? Photo Stream? Connect using USB?
also am unable to play the downloaded videos
Is that a recent problem? Did they play previously?
Regards

How to stream content from Mac or Ipad to ATV Gen 1

I have an unlocked ATV Gen 1 ( just bought 2nd hand ) and I want to stream content from either my MacBookAir or my ( Jailbroken ) Ipad 2 to the ATV which is connected to my nice big TV.
I can view all the integral stuff in ATV and also view/listen to movies/music in Itunes.
I really want to view BBC TV which is streaming on my MBA or Ipad onto the ATV.
How can I achieve this?
I've dabbled with Airshare ( a Cydia app ) on the Ipad but that doesn't seem to work.
Of course, I can run a HDMI cable directly from the MBA/Ipad to the ordinary TV and throw away the ATV but I want to do it wirelessly.
Surely this is achievable with ATV?
Thx,

Mr Churchill, I assume that you are talking about "live broadcasts" when you assert that I can't stream 'anything'?
Of course, I can 'stream' videos/music/podcasts/photos which are in my Itunes library of any of my devices to the ATV .
I'm pretty sure that I have read postings where content displayed on an IOS device can be mirrored in Audio/VDO to the ATV.
If this only realates to content contained within ITunes then confirmation will be regarded as the correct answer ( if not the one I wanted ).
Can someone pls assist

Unable to stream movies from mac

This problem is making my AppleTV almost unusable.
Never had a problem playing movies stored on my iTunes on my MacBook Pro on the AppleTV until the last update. Now when I attempt to select a movie, it takes upwards of 10 minutes for the movie to start playing.
I've done all the basic troubleshooting I've seen online. I have an Airport Extreme on the network running 802.11n, the signal strength on the AppleTV is excellent, the MacBook Pro has excellent signal strength (all wireless), I've checked for updates, verified network settings. Not sure what else to do. I used to have no problems at all watching movies on the AppleTV, now it's painful.
I have crappy Satellite Internet, but have had that for years, although I can stream a video from youtube over my Satellite Internet better than watching a video stored on my Mac.

I'm having a similar problem with my rented movies. I rented a movie from my iMac, and am trying to view it on my Apple TV, and I'm getting the error message that the content could not be loaded. I get the flower petal circle indicator, then the screen switches to what looks like the movie starting (the movie time indicator is now at the bottom of the screen), and then I get the error message.

Streaming videos from hulu and the like

Two days ago my mac just wouldn't stream videos anymore. I'm not sure if it is me or the internet. I have had them check the connection and they can't find anything wrong. I have updated everything (flash, etc) to be sure that isn't the issue. Anyone have any thoughts on what could be happening? I don't have cable, so my computer and I need to reach a conclusion to this issue.

Sorry, should have added that my movies and tv shows are on an external hard drive connected to my mac mini. They are not in iTunes and I can stream them to my iPad using air video but need to now if I can get them on my TV using Apple TV.........or do i need to put them in iTunes first ?

See this Help page: Transfer media to your iOS device
You can either upload the videos using iTunes or using Photos Library (Beta). If you have Photos Library (Beta) enabled, you cannot upload using iTunes.
