Using AppleTV offline
I have two AppleTV2 units and use them on a wi-fi network for in-house sharing of video media. I have a Hughesnet satellite Internet connection with a limited Fair Access Policy bandwidth threshold of 550MB. The AppleTV units appear to be draining 200 - 300 MB per day of bandwidth for, I imagine, updating the iTunes store info. Since I do not use AppleTV to download media from the internet I'm wondering if there is a way to configure them to be on my home WiFi network without being online. I have been manually unplugging them for now, but it is not the elegant solution I'm hoping for.

That's a tough one. Maybe set them as a private static IP address and don't specify a Gateway address? That is a lot of data being downloaded though. Have you unplugged them when not in use and checked to see if the usage is still there? As long as your router shares/publishes a Public IP address to your network, they will try to get to it

How do I use Airplay to watch a movie stored on my iPad on my TV using appleTV? For example. I downloaded a rental from Amazon onto my iPad and I want to watch it on my TV that has appleTV hooked up to it...
OR can I watch movies from my amazon library on the appleTV directly?Amazon has blocked the ability to airplay

Hi,
I developed a web application using HTML5-Offline Application Cache mechanism. Inspite of deleting the cache as mentioned in the above steps, Firefox still maintains a copy of the page in it's cache. Also, a serious bug is, even though we delete all temp files used by Firefox, and open the previously cached page, it displays it correctly, but upon refreshing/reloading it again shows the previous version of the page maintained in the cache.

[email protected]We have had this issue many, many times before including on the latest 3.6 rev. It appears that when the applicationCache has an update triggered by a new manifest file, the browser may still use only its local network cache to check for updates to the files in the manifest, instead of forcing an HTTP request and revalidating both the browser cache and the applicationCache versions of the cached file (seems there is more than one). I have to assume this is a browser bug, as one should not have to frig with server Cache-Control headers and such to get this to work as expected (and even then it still doesn't sometimes).
The only thing that seems to fix the problem is setting network.http.use-cache to false (default is true) in about:config . This helps my case because we only ever run offline (applicationCache driven) apps in the affected browser (our managed mobile apps platform), but it will otherwise slow down your browser experience considerably. -
How Do I Add 2nd Monitor using AppleTV?
I use a mid - 2012 Mac Pro; run Mavericks MacOS X 10.9.5.
1. I would like to know how to connect my SONY TV as a second monitor wirelessly using AppleTV.
2. Once 2nd monitor is connected:
3. What do I do to use the cursor and keyboard on the 2nd monitor?
4. How do I reply to an answered question for more info, or to thank someone?Hey again Angel,
It is the latter:
If your Mac supports AirPlay Mirroring, an AirPlay Mirroring status icon appears in the menu bar when an Apple TV is on the same network as your Mac.
OS X Mavericks: Wirelessly mirror your Mac screen to your HDTV
https://support.apple.com/kb/PH14375
So the AirPlay icon will only be seen on your Mac when an Apple TV is present on the same network as your Mac. You may also be interested in more information about AirPlay, which can be found here:

Have 5 hd tvs, need to stream audio/video to tvs. Thinking of using AppleTV..
My wife is opening a pediatric dental office. We are placing LCD TVs above each chair for kids to watch TV during their visit.
I will have 5 TVs over 5 chairs. Nothing more than power to the TV is hardwired.
Questions:
Using AppleTV can I use the same Apple Username/ID for all AppleTV units?
Can I use the same Netflix ID on multiple AppleTV units?
Can multiple AppleTV units stream from one Airport?
Is there any other questions I should be asking?
Thanks!!gp2 wrote:
My thought is to have a wireless N network dedicated to the ATVs. Basically there would be 5 ATVs and one beefy machine with ITunes and Movies purchased to support them. I cant imagine 5 ATVs streaming would put a dent in a dedicated N wireless network.
Should be ok in theory but in practice you''l only know when you try.
I was curious about the need for Internet connectivity, seems that is a must.
If it's copy protected material, then yes.
My thought with the external drive was to download the movie files to 5 drives and connect each to an ATV. This would eliminate the machine and wireless network cost. BUT it seems that this is not supported...
Correct, not supported. -
How to save and use videos Offline
Hi
I have been searching for this since yesterday but no luck. Can anyone please mention how can I save a video that I am watching on my Air app to my harddisc so that I can use it offline?
Thanks in advance
ADA reporting sucks badly.
Recently some user have deleted imp files on a unix server.
If you see who all logged in Unix, it shows DA server name for all users logged via DA.
user logged in via normal VPN, clearly shows the machine name for user but not in DA.
There is no option to select time and see who all was logged in during that time in DA?
under "access details" it only shows the name of DC but not the actual server name that user would have accessed. (what is the use of this option then - useless)
search box dont work, I tried putting every IP but yields no results. -

Can I use AppleTV with a monitor only?
I no longer have cable TV access (not enough value for its cost).
Can I use AppleTV with just a wide screen monitor?Personally I'd go for a TV rather than a monitor as the monitor resolutions will not necessarily tie in with the expected AppleTv output resolutions 480p/576p/720p/1080i or 1080p. An HD ready TV with a lower than fullHD panel is still likely to work better than a monitor not suite designed for 16:9 signals, though the boundaries are becoming blurred.
Take a look at the AppleTV specs as content playback is more limited for video than you might realise without files in the appropriate format, and a MacMini might be worth considering with Front Row.

IPad use for offline PDF submit
For iPad use, is there yet any way to use the offline PDF formfiller with the active "submit" button to send responses back to the FormsCentral server? Ipad use is key for my field sales team. The "submit" button is missing when the PDF is opened through Adobe Reader (mobile) on the iPad (iPad4 iOS 7.1). Is this because iPads do not have "Flash" and is there any workaround?
Hi;
You have two options for "offline" PDF workflow with the iPad.
One is to use an Acrobat Email workflow, not collecting responses in FormsCentral but adding a Submit button in Acrobat to email the form responses to you. When users fill out the PDF and click Submit it will queue the email, when online again those emails would be sent and you'd get the responses.
Using FormsCentral is a little more work in the offline case, see this response from Genevieve where she describes how to do it: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5339644#5339644
That info aside, the Submit button in a FormsCentral PDF should work fine in Adobe Reader Mobile for iOS. Are you sure users are opening the PDF in Adobe Reader mobile? The Submit button would be missing if Preview was used to view the PDF on the iPad.
Thanks,

My experience using Mail offline (e.g. on a plane) have been less than satisfactory. In particular, I have too recurring problems.
This first one is that when I'm offline and click on 'send' to send a message, I always get the following dialog:
http://img.skitch.com/20090212-b2g884bgafnxa6mfrsu2inr68w.jpg
At first blush, I suppose that makes sense. Mail is telling me that I can't send the message right now, etc. But if you are writing 20-30 messages, it gets a little tedious having to tell Mail the same thing again and again, especially since it takes a few seconds and then interrupts whatever you are doing next to inform you.
Any suggestions for work-arounds or solutions on this one?
Second problem is that when I get back online, Mail is very busy for a while (1/2 hour or so), and I get about a dozen of these messages:
http://img.skitch.com/20090212-txtpjhatmbyr16qan48gfsgey3.jpg
I'm never quite sure what it was that I did offline that can't be executed now that I'm online, or what is going to happen now. Was it files that I moved to other folders? Was it messages that I sent? Did they get sent?
Suggestions, thoughts, recommendations, etc. very welcome.
Thanks!This thread answers (or at least helps mitigate) the second half of my question:

i have an ipad mini and have started online course.documents sent to Dropbox. Mixture of word documents, zip files and powerpoint. Need to be able to use documents offline. any suggestions on suitable app that would enable me to transfer documents and work with them off line?
Depends on what you mean by "work with them offline". If you mean store the documents so you can access them if not connected to the internet, you already have it: DropBox.you can download files from the cloud an use them offline. You will need an app to handle the zip files: I use File Manager, but there are others. File Manager also intergrates with dropbox, Google Drive, and iCloud. If you only need to read them, these apps will take care of that for you.
As for editing, there are a few options. All have their limitations.
Some possible apps to look at:
Pages, Numbers (Apple)
Document (by Savy soda)
document 2 go
Quickoffice
CloudOn
Smart Office

I cannot show photos from my iPad on my tv using AppleTV
I am not able to show photos from my iPad on my TV using AppleTV-2.
When I show my photos on my iPad and I click th AppleTV icon, choose AppleTV, it then asks for my Airplay-password. I enter it and click ok. Then nothing happens for a few seconds but then it is asking for my airplay-password over and over again.
What is wrong? What do I wrong?Try turning off the airplay password on your Apple TV, playing a few slides and then try re-enabling your password if you wish to use it.

Sound not working after using AppleTV
I used AppleTV the other day with my MacBook Pro and everything worked find while I was using it. However, I want to watch something on my laptop now, and my sound is not working. The volume is grayed out in the menu and whenever I try to use my volume buttons to turn it back on, nothing happens. I think my laptop still thinks it is connected to AirPlay, but it isn't. And even when I would disconnect from AirPlay but keep AppleTV on, the volume was still grayed out. Please let me know if there is a way to fix this, as I find my self unable to.
