Why doesn't my apple TV 2 see my new photo albums right away?

When I create a new photo album to iPhoto, I can't figure out how to get it to show up on Apple TV right away.  It eventually does, but never right away, sometimes it takes days...  The same happens with new events when I import new photos into iPhoto.  Homesharing is ON, and iPhoto preferences is set to 'share entire library'.

iTunes/AppleTV's seem unpredictable about how they update content availability.
I added some Amazon MP3s to itunes last night but they failed to appear on my AppleTV1, even after a restart, until I restarted iTunes.
I think that in reality AppleTV just isn't mad aware that new things have been added to itunes/iPhoto as oftem/quickly as you'd like.
Usually restarting iTunes and AppleTV sorts it.

  • HT1657 I had rented a movie on my IPhone5 and after downloading almost all of it, I get an error that there is no enough space. Why doesn't the store check to see if I have enough free space before proceeeding with the order?

    How do I get a refund?

    Well, with apps genneraly you do get told ahead of time. I'm not sure of the current algorithm with movies though.
    Why not just clear up some space? You can check your usage in your settings btw.

  • Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    That's odd. Does this mean that you want to have the request or that you can't see the photos even though you enabled it over the privacy/photos?
    If you enable it - it's not necessary to get the request. If you want the request the safest way to get it back is to reset the privacy settings by going to iPad settings/General/Reset/Reset Location & Privacy
    thanks,

  • Why won't my apple tv sync with my new macbook pro, they are both on the same wifi signal

    why won't my apple tv sync with my new macbook pro, they are both on the same wifi signal.

    Not sure of what? In your second response you said the issue was with airplay. You were also having issues connecting laptop to computer, which points to a laptop connectivity issue. I simply asked if home sharing was an issue as well, since that will confirm the laptop as the cause. Your response that home sharing is on doesn't really help since that doesn't itself have a bearing on airplay nor does it answer the question in regards to if home sharing is working on Apple TV
    If you have a further question you will need to be specific.

  • When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"?

    When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"? IE always saved photos in the "Photos" file and documents in the "Documents" file. Firefox makes me choose every time. Very annoying.

    How about if Firefox is programmed like IE in this ONE thing...
    When saving files from internet sources, if the file ends in a typical photo extension such as .jpg, .bmp, .tif etc. it defaults to save it in your PHOTOS folder.
    When saving anything like a .doc, .pdf etc. it defaults to save it to your DOCUMENTS.
    You could still change it to 'desktop' if that if really where you want all your photos and documents... or some other folder that you decide, but DEFAULTS to the LOGICAL folder.
    I have carpal tunnel SO bad that even typing this suggestion is painful and having to make the extra click along with moving the mouse EVERY time I want to save something is painful.
    ALSO, I shouldn't need a bunch of ADDONS to accomplish this. I tried downloading one and it did nothing. The problem still exists.

  • How do I create new photo albums in iphone? why isn't it organized like in the iPad?

    How do I create new photo albums in iphone? why isn't it organized like in the iPad?

    You can't create new albums on the iPad either. The user interface looks different, but the functionality is essentially the same.
    The route is to create new albums on the desktop, and then sync via iTunes.

  • Within Facebook, I have '6' photo albums.  On my iPad Air or my iPhone 4S, when I go into Photos, select a photo to send to Facebook, I only see '2' Facebook photo albums listed!  Thoughts on how I can get my 'I' devices to recognize all '6' FB albums?

    OMG, I totally did not see the edit button at the top right corner of the Albums window/page.
    Selecting that, then selecting the album BIKE brought up the RED button to the left of the album and ta-da, delete.
    Sometimes I seek so hard I do not see.

  • When I select a netflix movie on my iPad and push it to my apple TV, why doesn't the Apple TV take over the streaming, so that I can then use my iPad for other things?

    From what I can tell, when I select the movie and hit the airplay button to move it to the apple TV, my iPad is still doing all the work of streaming the movie.  Why can't the apple TV take over the heavy work at this point?  I'd like to be able to use my iPad as more of a remote with an awesome interface for the apple TV.  The netflix app on iPad is great, and the easiest way to browse movies, and pushing them to the apple TV is fantastic, but once the movie starts, I want to use my iPad for other things!!!  Can this be put on the "to do" list for devs?

    Have you tried the Remote app on iPhone/iPad to control AppleTV, do searches etc?  Should be easier than the remote alone and this does not involve Airplay.
    Please note, only users read/comment here  - your idea is quite sensible in my view (maybe have a 'Continue viewing on AppleTV' option or something.  I doubt this would be high on Apple's roadmap but send them feedback here:

  • Hi, Lately many times my MBP15 shuts down a few second after waking up from sleep mode. Any ideas why? I think it happens everytime I try to open safari right away...

    I think it happens everytime I try to open safari right away, but I'm not sure. After shutting down it automatically restarts and gives me a message Ÿour computer had to shut down because of a problem, press any key to restart..." and when it comes on again it gives me an option to send an error report to apple.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Yeah your Mac is having a Kernel Panic and the option to Restart the system when that happens is checked. So the system Restarts Automatically. Uncheck that option. For some unknown reason it is located in the Energy Saver applet in System Preferences.
    As to the ROOT cause it could be software or hardware problems. There should be a Kernel Panic report in the console logs.
    But if you do a search of these forum you'll find many that are having these restarts waking from sleep. So it would seem to be a hardware problem.

  • Why doesn't my apple tv show up in my source list on itunes?

    I purchased a movie and then realized it didnt sync on my apple tv. So I go to my computer to see that the apple tv isn't listed in the sources. So far I have unplugged the apple tv, restarted it, restarted my computer, made sure all available updates have been downloaded, and also factory restored my apple tv.....still it doesn't show up.
    So how do I get my apple tv to show up in my source list?

  • Why doesn't the apple store give the same 3 year guarantee that John Lewis gives

    Hello!
    It would appear that John Lewis are also selling the new macbook pros for the same price as the apple store, but with a 3 year guarntee (presumably you would also get the 1 year warranty provided by Apple too), why does the Apple Store not also give a 3 year guarntee?
    Kind regards

    AppleCare IS an extended warranty.

  • Why doesn't the Apple support communities homepage work with an iPad?

    You can't scroll. Why would apple create a site that doesn't work as intended using one of their own products?

    That was fast and it works!  I never knew you could do this.  Learn something every day!  Thanks !  Does this always work for scrolling in situations like this or does the page need to encoded in some way?

  • Why doesn't com.apple.IE.client.exeshut down when Mobile Me finishes sync?

    Since upgrading to iTunes 9.1.0.74 a couple of days ago, the com.apple.IE.client.exe process, which starts during the Calendars phase of a Mobile Me manual sync process, fails to shut down when the sync process is complete. The Calendars phase now runs 5-10 minutes even when there are no Calendar changes. While it runs, com.apple.IE.client.exe runs at 50% of the CPU, and memory usage climbs continuously. It reaches about 2 GB (2,000,000 K in Windows Task Manager!) by the time the sync process completes.
    However, com.apple.IE.client.exe _doesn't end_ even though the sync is complete. Instead, it keeps running at 50% CPU. Somewhere around 2.1 to 2.2 GB of memory usage it reports: "com.apple.IE.client.exe - Application Error. The exception Breakpoint. A breakpoint has been reached. (0x80000003) occurred in the application at location 0x0c90120E."
    This has occurred at the end of four Mobile Me syncs now. Upon selecting OK to end the application, everything else seems fine.
    I see other posts regarding the com.apple.IE.client.exe process in the latest iTunes update, but no clear resolution. I tried Apple Mobile Me chat, and replicated the problem twice while on-line, but their only recommendation (after verifying that my only Outlook COM add-on is the iTunes add-on) was to reinstall iTunes and Mobile Me, and if that didn't work, to create another user and see if the sync problem occurred there. Since that user would have no Outlook data to sync, this suggestion wasn't very helpful.

    As am experiment, I just ran a Mobile Me manual sync, but first I de-selected Bookmarks, and synced just Contacts and Calendars. com.apple.IE.client.exe did NOT start at the beginning of the Calendars sync phase (as it had in the four previous syncs since upgrading to iTunes 9.1.0.79). In fact, it did not start at all, the Calendars sync phase finished quickly and the entire sync process finished in less than a minute.
    The apparent conclusion is that com.apple.IE.client.exe is used to sync IE bookmarks with Mobile Me, it starts (for some unknown reason) at the beginning of the Calendars sync phase if Bookmarks are being synced (not at the beginning of the Bookmarks sync phase), it delays the Calendars sync phase significantly (but not the Bookmarks sync phase), and it has some sort of serious memory leak problem that balloons its memory usage past 2 GB.

  • Why can't my apple tv 2 see my macbook itunes libraries with home sharing enabled on both devices?  Same Apple id.

    I cannot see my macbook pro snow leopard 10.6.8 itunes libraries on my apple tv 2.  i have disabled and re-enabled home sharing on both devices using the same Apple ID.  I used to be able to see it but not anymore.  There has been a router upgrade to Linksys E2000 but i haven't been able to find anything that would inhibit home sharing.

    Switched back to the old D-Link and all is available.  Looking for solutions from Linksys.
