Using Apple Ipod HiFi with Apple TV / Need better remote

The TV I hooked up my Apple TV to is in a built in cabinet and there is not enough room for a stereo and speaker system. So, I took my Apple Ipod HiFi speaker and plugged it into the audio out plugs of the Apple TV. I can squeeze the Apple HiFi into the shelf above the TV and it fits great. The component outs on the Apple TV still go to my HDTV. It works great and I can listen to my music from Itunes on my Apple HiFi. The problem is the remote for the Apple HiFi is the same as the remote for Apple TV. So, if I have a song playing and I try to scroll for a new song, if I scroll down the volume on the Apple HiFi goes down. If I scroll up, the volume on the Apple HiFi goes up while I'm scrolling up. It seems like Apple should have a better remote solution to let you control the Apple TV and the Apple HiFi separately with the same remote. Anyone know how I could do this?

You can pair each remote with each device by pressing the menu + FF buttons down for 6 seconds, hold the remote close to each device, you might want to pair the  hifi in another location and bring it back afterwards to avoid confusion.

"It" being the iPod Classic I assume.
The iPod Classic does not have Bluetooth.
If the Bose wireless function is Bluetooth, then you could by a Bluetooth transmitter, designed for the Apple 30-pin dock connector. That takes the output from the iPod and sends it via Bluetooth. Power for the transmitter is taken from the iPod.

Can i use my ipod touch with airport express?

I will be staying in a hotel that only offers hard wire internet connection. Can I use my ipod touch with airport express to have have WiFi? I won't have my computer with me.
Thanks!

Yes, you can. However, you will not be able to administer the AirPort from the iPod Touch. Thus you would need to pre-configure the AirPort Express to work at the particular hotel that you will be staying at. Note: Most hotels now offer Wi-Fi in the rooms and the Express may not be necessary.

How do i use 2 ipod touches with 1 itunes account?

how do i use 2 ipod touches with 1 itunes account? can they share apps and music etc. I'm not very good at any tech so advise would be much appreciated.

Yes. You can sync an unlimited number of iDvies that you control to one iTunes library/account. If using the same iTunes library on the same comutr just make sure that yu go to the ap. music and other pane for the iPod in iTunes and select sycn selected items. Not the the whole library. That way each iPod can have it own contents.

HT1206 Can I use one iPod Touch with 2 accounts and download from both accounts?

Can I use one iPod Touch with 2 accounts? Can I download onto the one iPod from each account?

I havent seen anything confirming this but I suspect not. that would require you keep logging in and out of the two accounts since you can only sign in to one at once. In iTunes on your computer if you log into another iTunes account you can't log into another one for 90 days. As I say I've seen nothing confirming this on a mobile device, but I suspect it will be the same.

Using an Ipod Nano with a Mac OS X and a PC on Windows XP

Hello,
I have a MAC OS X at home and a PC with Windows XP at work. I have been using my Ipod Nano at home for quite a lon time, but I have tried to use it at work for the first time.
However, when I try to see the music content on my PC, it says that my Ipod is formatted for MAC and that I need to reformat it if I want to use it with the PC.
The problem is that if I reformat it, I will lose all its content and I am afraid to be obliged to reformat it when I want to connect it to my MAC again.
How can I do to be able to use my Ipod with my MAC and with my PC?
Thank you in advance for your help.

If your iPod is formatted for Mac it won't run natively on a PC because the Windows OS does not support the HFS Plus file system and therefore will not see the drive. Macs can read Windows drives so you could restore and format the iPod on a PC. Strictly speaking using a Windows formatted iPod on a Mac isn't supported however many people use one without any issue. iTunes will allow you to use an iPod formatted for Windows on a Mac; however, Apple currently only supports using the iPod shuffle in FAT32 format on Mac. Alternatively there are third party programs that will allow you to use a Mac formatted iPod on Windows, this is one for instance gets good reviews: XPlay 2
You can read another user's experience of using XPlay at this link: iPod on Mac and Windows

Can I use my iPod apps with a MacBook?

I'm in college and am trying to decide if I want to use an iPad or one of the MacBooks. I guess one of the big questions is can I use my existing iPod apps with the MacBooks or do I have to make separate purchases again for them? I also want to record my teachers' lectures... So that may also have a factor in this.
Sorry if this is in the wrong place... I'm new to the support forums. ^-^;

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
No, the iPod and the Mac have different operating systems; iOS and OS X respectively. The apps must be developed for the Specific OS. When the same app is for both platforms, they are actually two different apps and if you want both, then you have to buy both separately from their respective app stores.

IPod HiFi with other stereo components

I own a 60GB Video iPod and I have been thinking of getthing a new speaker system for it. I currently have an early iMotion speaker set that I found on ebay for real cheap.
I kind of want to find a speaker set up that will allow me to hook up my record player to it. Has anyone tried this with the iPod hifi yet?

Works great with any turntable that has a built-in preamp (line ouput). I use a Optimus (Radio Shack) LAB-1000. Just needed plug adapters. Sound balance and volume very normal. Its a kick!

I want to use my iPod Classic with my MacBook Pro, I am using it on my G5

I have me iPod Classic, on my G5. This is where all the content on the iPod is from. I want to be able to connect my iPod Classic to my MacBook Pro and be able to have the iPod show up, on the devices list where I could access all my music, playlists and podcasts. Where can I find information on how to do this?
Thanks in advance for reading and replying to my post.

If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer or with more than one library you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
Syncing Music to iPod
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

HT2864 Hi! is there a way of using my iPod nano with different Nike+ accounts?

Hi!
I no longer use my iPod for running since i now have my iPhone 4. I'd like to give it to my girlfriend who is just starting to run. But whenever i open iTunes (even with her account) it automatically connects to my NIke+ account and I can't find the way of linking it with my girlfriend's account.
Is there any way of doing so? Could anybody please help me?
Thxxxx

No. You can sync content directly from an iPod to another iPod or iPad. The content you wish to transfer needs to be in your iTunes library first.
