I'm an idiot--iPhoto videos??

bouldermac · Oct 19, 2010, 06:21 PM

So I shot some vid on my iPhone, import into iPhoto.

How do I access these on my ATV? They don't show up under My Photos, or anywhere else that I can find...??

TIA

they have to be in itunes to access through atv. i think you can go to iphoto and share to itunes.

The photos aren't in itunes are they?

nope photos can be streamed straight from iphoto.

Figured it out

You have to copy the videos from iphoto into itunes.

Stupid as hell, but I guess that is what you have to do until AirPlay...

You can drag and drop which helps.

so if you drag and drop, it must convert on the fly because it has to change from .mov to .mp4.

I don't think so because the Apple TV accepts .mov files too.
