Apple TV 2nd gen won't boot up.

My Apple TV (2nd gen) won't boot up. It recently updated to the newest firmware. Now, it won't power on and all I get when I try to restore in iTunes is the blinking white led. I'd love some help

Why Does it need to wake the mac?

    It appears that this is due to firmware corruption and you can fix it by using the micro USB cable and hooking it to iTunes.  I have not tried it yet but supposedly several people were able to resolve their problem this way.  If you do try it, let me know.  I don't have the cable at this time.

  • I set up a new airport time capsule. Most devices work fine however now my apple tv 2nd gen won't work.

    I set up a new airport time capsule. Most devices connected fine however now my apple tv 2nd gen won't work. I turn it on and it searches for time and date but goes no further. I can't by pass it either. Any suggestions?

    Does that mean you cannot move it to the TC and plug in by ethernet? What does bypass mean?
    I would still move it closer to the TC.. and just trial it there. Range on some AC models for 2.4ghz is worse than old one. For some people.
    Another thing to try is fixed wireless channels.. one of the very few options still available in the AC model.. lock the 2.4ghz to 11, 6, 1 .. try it in that order.

    HI.
    I rented two movies on my apple TV 2nd gen. and they won't play.
    When we try to play them it tries to load it and then says there is a loading error and try again later, but it never works.

    Same issue. Apple has my $4.99 and I have no movie!

  • Apple TV 3gen won't play content from iTunes, Apple TV 2nd gen works fine same network

    Hi.
    Recently, after all the most recent Apple updates, my Apple TV 3rd gen won’t play content from iTunes on my Mac. I have an Apple TV 3nd gen  on the same network and it works fine. This problem started after the recent round of OS X updates( I am running 10.9.2 and iTunes 11.1.5. As my Apple TV3 was actually new and I took it to the Apple store where they kindly gave me a new one but the same thing happens. The Apple TV 3rd gen will play content through the onboard clients like Netflix, iTunes, Bloomberg.
    The Apple TV3rd gen won’t play anything form my computer’s iTunes library, whether or not it was purchased from the Itunes store or home movies from iPhone etc. I have restored the device a few times to no luck. I have even switched routers, same problem.
    Any thoughts ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Home sharing was configured and turned on. I can actually see all the content on my Mac. When I trry to play anything i just see the white spinning wheel on the black background.

  • Sky Go content won't play on Apple TV 2nd Gen

    I have a UK Sky Go account and can download video to iPad.  When I activate Airplay to Apple TV 2nd Gen it will not display. Apple TV works fine with iTunes downloaded content.
    Any options/ideas to get this working??

    While I am pretty sure I had tried it, I just did a little rearrangement within my stereo cabinet which resulted in moving the Apple TV to another shelf.  And of course unplugging it to move cables.   After powering it up and redoing some of the setup, the movie plays properly.   So maybe a power cycle was needed.   Or maybe the problem resolved itself and the power cycle just coincidently happened at the same time.   Either way, my problem has been resolved.

  • Apple TV (2nd gen) not showing up as a device in iTunes

    Hi all,
    I have this problem. The Apple TV (2nd gen) does not show up in iTunes under devices, and I really don't know why.
    Mac OSX 10.6.5
    iTunes 10.1
    AppleTV 2nd gen with latest update installed
    Network is a WiFi Airport Extreme (Mac and AppleTV are indeed on the same private network)
    Airplay works, home sharing works fine. Remote App on iPad and iPhone works.
    But the AppleTV is not showing up under devices.
    I had a 1st gen AppleTV which I reverted to "factory settings" before unplugging. The 2nd gen ATV had the same name as the 1st gen at the beginning, but I changed it afterwards figuring it might be related.
    Under iTunes > preferences I had the AppleTV tab. But I did read somewhere on Apple's site you have to "delete" the AppleTV from the list. So I did, and now the tab cannot be found anymore...
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you in advance.

    I seem to recall though that I have seen a screenshot somewhere on the web where iTunes showed the ATV 2nd gen as a device.
    Not seen that, but the old ones have a logo that look (to me) like the new one, or at least a small darker grey than they are - they show up nicely in the iPad/iPhone Remote app though
    If you are right it would be huge disappointment!
    I believe I am correct as I've got new/old AppleTVs connected to 3 Macs and a dual boot Mac Pro currently, and the new unit has never appearede under devices.
    .... I really HATE the interface organization right now. Why on planet earth do I have to go under "devices" -> "computer" -> "music" just to play some music?
    You, me and many other AppleTV 1 users. I think they'd finally got it right in 3.02 for AppleTV 1 which is a much nicer user interface. Basically now the majority of the top level columns are unused by many people who don't rent but want to playback theit iTunes media.
    I firmly believe Apple see this new AppleTV as a relatively cheap accessory for iPads/iPhones/iPods to show video/photos via Airplay on your TV without using a computer.
    Secondly it's a vehicle for pushing itunes Store rentals, but for the majority of worldwide users they can only get Movie rentals, and Netflix is of no use bar in a few countries (US/Canada).
    I would have much more preferred that a "music" tab (it also applies to all other tabs, movies, tv series and so on) and then just a list of all "home sharing" connected computers from which I could pick the one where the music is stored. Or even, and being Apple it surprises me they didn't implement it, just the list of the available music on my network, with a little tab indicating in which computer it is located.
    Yes that would make absolute sense - a dynamic list of available content based on connected libraries that changes as new libraries appeared on/left the local network.
    The new menu organisation is quite shoddy to me, ut many users new to AppleTV like it and rave about the devices not knowing what the old one could do - it's a good device don't get me wrong, but I still prefer the older units except for their power consumption and the fact I feel they are more likely to fail due to their high temps and mechanical hard drives.
    But here I'm venturing FAR off topic.
    Don't think so, it's a valid comment.

    Thank you for your help anyway. I wait for confirmation of somebody else just to make sure...
    Fair enough.

  • My MacAir 1st gen. won't boot after latest OS X Lion update.

    My MacAir 1st gen. won't boot after latest OS X Lion update. tried safe boot(didn't work) tried disk repair, said it was successful, but my mac won't start up. Just get white screen.  Also been having trouble with it overheating. Fan seems to work. But when it get too hot whole interface slows down.

    Yikes, I hope you have AppleCare on it still, I think it needs to be taken in, but as a last ditch effort...
    Have you done a PRAM reset, CMD+Option+p+r...

  • MacBook Pro Early 2011 - Airplay Mirroring only sends audio to Apple TV 2nd Gen

    Ok, I'm stumped by this one. I have a 15" MBP Early 2011 edition and an Apple TV 2nd Gen. Airplay Mirroring from my MBP to Apple TV only transmits the audio -- the MBP will resize the screen like it's connected to a 16:9 device, and Apple TV will show a black screen like it's about to pick up the video signal, but no video transmits. A couple of times, video started transmitting, but it was about 30 seconds delayed (?!) and extremely choppy. Both devices are connected wirelessly to a Linksys router with 5 GHz (wireless N) capabilities. The router has been configured to Apple's recommendations for Airplay Mirroring.
    A little more about my MacBook Pro:
    Early 2011 Model ID: MacBookPro8,2
    OS: 10.8.2 Mountain Lion
    CPU: Intel Core i7
      Processor Speed:          2 GHz
      Number of Processors:          1
      Total Number of Cores:          4
      L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
      L3 Cache:          6 MB
    Memory: 4 GB
    GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6490M, VRAM 256 MB Total
    This problem is driving me crazy! Airplay works flawlessly between my iPhone 5 and Apple TV, but not with a much more powerful laptop. Also, I tried Mirroring from a friend's 13" MacBook Pro, and it did the same thing.
    Any suggestions, tips, ideas, etc. to get this working is appreciated!

    your macbook dont support airplay mirror
    He has an Early-2011 MacBook Pro, which does meet the requirements. The issue is that it is running OS X 10.7.5 and needs to be upgraded to Mountain Lion to use mirroring.

  • 1 Apple TV 2nd Gen, Windows 7 Computer with multiple user accounts

    The issue that I am having is I have 1 Apple TV 2nd Gen and Windows 7 Computer with multiple user accounts.
    When I log onto my Windows user account, open up Itunes and turn on home sharing my Apple TV work perfect but if another family member switches to their Windows user account without logging me out, the home share shows up on Apple TV but it just says "Loading ... Library" and never loads.
    If we switch back to my user account, restart iTunes, everything is fine. Is there a way to keep my home share active in ATV2 across multiple user accounts? All of my video is under my account.

    You can home-share multiple libraries but only use one account at a time.

  • Is there a way to view private photos from Flickr on my Apple TV (2nd gen)?

    I've just started using Flickr as a central platform from which to view family photos, in part because of the number of ways there are to access them, e.g. iPhone, iPad, web, and Apple TV.
    Now, however, it appears the only way to get photos from Flickr to show up my Apple TV (2nd gen), is to make them public. I do not wish for all my photos to be public; is there any way around this restriction?

    I am not aware of any workarounds to this restriction.

  • If I initially rent and begin watching a movie on my Apple TV (2nd Gen) can I later change and finish watching it on my iMac (same iTunes account)?

    If I initially rent and begin watching a movie on my Apple TV (2nd Gen) can I later finish watching it on my iMac (registered with same iTunes account)?

    The other way to do this would be to download all your rentals onto the Mac, then you can choose watch them on the Mac or Airplay them to the ATV.
    At least that way you can switch back and forth as often as you like during the "watching" period AND have 1 month to begin watching it after you've downloaded it.

  • HT1600 I have an Apple TV 2nd Gen, iPad 2 and can't get the icon to appear when i swipe from left to right. What am I missing? I am able to get the 'Home sharing' 'user and password on my Mac.

    I have an Apple TV 2nd Gen, iPad 2 and can't get the icon to appear when i swipe from left to right. What am I missing?
    I am able to get the 'Home sharing' 'user and password on my Mac.
    Also using IPad 2 I am able to get the ITunes to accept the user name and same password as the Mac.
    However, the only way I can see the 'Home sharing; icon is in Music on the Ipad. When I tap on the Icon it asks for a password.
    When I give the same password, it is rejected.
    Help!!!!

    Personally I think the iOS devices are poor at reconnecting  - Airplay establishes that a link is available but when the iPhone/iPad has been away from the house and rejoins the network i think AppleTV already thinks it's connected with a different IP address and fails to recognise it has joined the network again with new credentials.
    Something along those lines anyway.
    I find that a combination of restarting AppleTV, router and iOS device tends to fix it, but not for everyone.
