So a little more investigation, I can stream videos from the amazon app to the Apple TV. Anything I've downloaded for offline viewing doesn't work. Airplay should just send the video signal to my TV, why it has an issue with downloaded shows I'm not sure. Due to my aforementioned internet issues...

I can't get airplay to work. It will work just fine, quickly and easily, with the photos app. I can play videos and display pictures easily. I can't get any video to play from iTunes or the Amazon instant video app. I've tried with the internet turned on and with it turned off. It simply won't...

Ok perfect. I apreeciate the help guys.

According to the link it says "Make sure that both devices have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth turned on. If you want to stream iTunes Store content, you also need an Internet connection" . If I'm using a peer to peer connection I'm guessing as long as wifi is turned on to the Apple TV (but blocked from...

I have a limited data connection at home. It is however unmetered between the hours 12am-5pm. I'm thinking of buying an Apple TV strictly for airplay purposes. I can download movies and tv shows using Amazon Prime on my iPad during the unmetered hours and use airplay to watch them when...

I have found some uses where the mouse is actually better suited. Usually if something requires very precise control but thankfully that's been pretty limited. Finding the "3 fingers to drag" on the trackpad has been a life saver for me. By far my favorite gesture.

I've been using the Magic Mouse for a week now. I love the gestures on the mouse but overall i'm not a fan. It's just not comfortable to use for any prolonged period of time. It's too slim and just not form fitting. I really like the track pad and that's what i've been using most of the time. My...

I did try one at the store a few weeks ago before I bought one. It was definitely vibrating. My last hope with this one was there was a setting or something simple I was missing.

Ok, I think it's defective then. The force touch works, meaning it will do what I expect force touch to do, I just get no vibration or haptic feedback from the magic trackpad 2. Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you for the tip! I'm fairly tech savvy so I'll figure everything out. I asked in the peripherals forum but maybe someone will see this sooner, I bought the Magic Trackpad 2 and there's not haptic feed back with it. I just want to make sure I'm not missing a setting before I return it. I...

Google has been my friend that's for sure. So far the only thing I've found myself missing was the Windows "snapping" tool. I read there's a 3rd party app that can replicate that so I might look into that later. Something I noticed right away is how much better iTunes runs on the Mac versus...

I bought the Magic Trackpad 2 for my iMac. I'm not feeling any vibration with it. I'm supposed to feel something when I force click right? I hear an audible clicking when I tap on it but that's it and I think that's just from the device itself. I'm thinking the haptic motor in it is defective. I...

That's what's being advertised at the moment. I'm reserving judgement until we get closer to the finished product. It does seem like a stupid thing to have not work together. Hopefully it's something they've already figured out.

my first iMac is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. My wife got a new PC at Christmas time. I tried to convince her to look at Mac's but she refused and said she had too many programs that worked with Windows. Good luck with yours. i'm hoping after she gets her hands on mine she'll rethink her decision.

Thank you! It's scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. I'm very excited. This will be my first time away from Windows so I'm curious to see how this goes.

Re: What are your thoughts on today's iOS 10 announcement? I thought that exact same thing. im honestly not that worried about it personally but I can see that being a huge concern for some people.

At least that's pretty small. We get a small amount of data a month (15 gigs), but it's un-metered between the hours of 12am-5am. So even small updates like this have to wait until after midnight usually. I of course work in the morning so staying up late to do updates isn't always feasible...

Gotcha. Ok. Thanks for answering. I assumed that's how it was but I had held out a slimmer of hope that everything would be updated at the time of building the machine.

I bought my first ever Mac today. A late 2015 iMac. I have a limited data plan at home so getting and setting up a new computer can be a pain when everything needs to be updated and software downloaded. I ordered Logic Pro x with my Mac hoping to save on downloading that at home later. So my...

I am just the slightest bit nervous because there are a lot of forum posts out in the wild about 3rd party ram causing issues. I'm going to buy the standard 8 gigs from Apple and bump it to 16 aftermarket to start with and then go from there.
