HT1551 Apple tv no longer responding to remote ...

The apple tv has suddenly stopped responding to the remote. Cant navigate itunes or use main menu at all Not a problem with the remote - it works on macs and it still triggers reaction from sensor light on the box - but nothing happens. Reset box - no improvement The apple tv still responds to remote signal from iPad and iPhone and AirPlay still functions. Even photo stream still works But arrows and menu button not prompting any response. .... Any ideas ??

Ok solved by reading an earlier posted comment. Hit menu and LEFT arrow key until the paired signal appears. Not the menu and down key as suggested by apples own help site ... Thanks 'Snow'!

Apple TV no longer responds to Apple remote(s).

My Apple TV suddenly stopped responding to the remote. I tested this with 3 different Apple remotes I have, and none of them work. Pressing any button on the remote turns the Apple TV status light to yellow, but that's all I can get it to do.
I confirmed that the Apple TV isn't frozen (as I initially thought) since my Remote app on my iPhone works just fine, controlling everything on the Apple TV per usual.
I restarted the Apple TV three times, so that's not helping.
Anyone have any thoughts? I've browsed the forums and can't seem to find any remote issues.

Sounds like your tv has become paired with another remote.

My apple tv does not respond

My Apple TV no longer responds to the remote. Nor does the HDMI plug show as active on the input options on the TV. I changed the battery but still no response.
Help!

Try holding menu and left arrow buttons TOGETHER for 6 seconds on the remote.
Do you get anything on the TV from it currently?

Music player no longer responds on my iPod

I have an iPod Youch 3th gen. Since I upgraded to the latest iOS 5.1 my music player (the standard Apple one) no longer responds on my iPod. I get a blank screen for a couple of seconds and then quits. Synching with iTunes appears to work fine. The songs are still on my iPod (I can find them through searching in the generic search) but when clicking on them to play them, I get the same results as described above.
All other apps work fine.
Can anyone help ?

Try:
- Unsyncing and resyncing all the music
- Reset the iPod. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

Apple TV stopped responding to remote, tried everything, what now?

Tonight my husband and I sat down to watch our rented movie and strangely, the Apple TV didn't display any rented movies, and when I tried to connect to the iTunes store it said it was unavailable and to try again later. Promptly it stopped responding to the remote—not even to the Menu and - combo that is supposed to restart it. When I held those keys down, after about 5 seconds the light on the Apple TV unit turned amber, but nothing happened. I tried this several times and finally gave up. Then I unplugged/replugged the unit and held down the key combo while it restarted. It have me the option to run diagnostics, and at this point the remote started working again, so I ran the diagnostics (it says everything is OK), and then I chose the option to restart. Once it restarted and was on the main menu, it no longer responded to the remote again.
I have over 100 gigs of movies plus rented films on my Apple TV, so needless to say the LAST thing I want to do right now is to do a factory restore and wait DAYS and DAYS for all the data to get back on there (plus have my network hogged by the activity).
BTW I've tried both key combinations to pair and unpair the remote with no success. I'm so frustrated right now!! Is there ANYTHING else I can do?

Thanks for the suggestions, guys. I did the factory restore and the Apple TV is now responding correctly to the remote. However, I'm having a problem in iTunes now: the Apple TV appears in the list under Devices, but when I click on it, under Summary I only see the software version (2.1) and the serial number—no choices on syncing. The Cancel and Apply buttons at the bottom are grayed out. The only other tab is Photos, which allows me to choose photos to sync and offer the Apply button, but after I click it there is no choice anywhere to sync.
Very bizarre, no?
BTW I'm running the latest version of iTunes.

HT1595 Trying to connect my new apple tv to the wireless network. When I try to use the remote, the Apple TV doesn't respond (doesn't go to the next screen). Could this be caused by a weak wireless signal?

It is not properly connected to the network.
Make sure location is set correctly
DNS should be on auto (settings - general - network)
Try ethernet
Signal strength on device won't account for issues, you would need a network report from istumbler, netstumbler or similar. This will show accurate signal strength along with noise and nearby networks

Apple tv all of a sudden not responding to remote and will not pair

My apple TV will not respond to the aluminum remote it came with. I have tried pairing the remote again by holding the menu and the right button and will not work. I also have changed the battery. The apple tv was able to pair with the remote for my imac, but I would like to have separate remotes. Any ideas?

When I take out the battery of the aluminum remote and then put it back the Apple TV will respond with the 3 blinking lights as if it's not paired. But after a while the Apple TV light will not blink or respond to anything from the aluminum remote. Also, the remote worked fine for over a year.
Not sure if this info suggests anything different then a faulty remote, but just wanted to check.
Thanks for your help.

If they are the instructions I think you might have seen, they are for the Apple TV 2.
Unfortunately I think your Apple TV may have failed.
You might try removing ALL the cables for a while and trying again, but I think you may be out of luck.

Help! My apple TV doesn't respond to the remote. I've tried resetting by pressing the menu and rewind buttons for six seconds and it isn't working.

My apple TV is not responding to the remote. I've tried pressing the menu and rewind buttons for six seconds and no response, I've also tried changing the battery and that hasn't done anything either. Not sure what else to do!

Have you tried disconnecting the power chord on the Apple TV for a few seconds, and then plugging it back in to restart the Apple TV? There may be a glitch with the ATV, and not the remote.

Screen Sharing No Longer Responds from Master Machine

For a long time, I have used screen sharing from my iMac to control my Mac Mini on the TV. Now, I can connect to screen sharing but the Mac Mini no longer responds to any commands from the iMac.
Another factor that may have contributed to this:
I use Hippo Remote to control the Mac Mini as my home theatre PC. This also has worked fine for a long time. Now, however, it can hardly get a connection anymore and when it does, I have no control over the Mac Mini any more. I've emailed their tech support but with little result.
The only other thing I know of is that I'm running two video server clients on my iMac to provide remote access to video files via my iPhone or iPad. I don't think those should interfere with the Mac Mini though.
Has anyone else run into this? Know of any solutions?
I've tried reboots, turning off the Hippo Remote VNC server on the Mac Mini, and other servers but nothing is getting me what I used to have.

Apple Tech guys and girls do not post in these User-to-User forums.
On a Specific day there was a problem with the SNATMAP server and everyone had issues with iChat Video and Audio chats.
The Original Poster did not seem to make it to the other threads at the same time.
I informed him that there had been a issue and that it seemed sorted for most people and asked if he still had an issue.
On the basis he said he was working - the problem and cause of that problem have been dealt with.
At which point do you not get that, in this thread, the issue discussed is sorted for the original poster and that you should move on ?
I will be quite happy to discuss your issues in your thread.

I can not make people mark their threads as finished.
It also does not mean that the issue does not arise for you.
What I am saying that in this context the solution will not suit your situation.
An External event (SNATMAP Down) to all parties caused the problem he had and a second External event (SNATMAP up) solved it.
AS SNATMAP has not fallen over recently you have another problem and it is not related to this one.
I hope this is clear enough for you.

My iphone 4 is no longer responding to swipes

My iphone 4 is no longer responding to swipes, but it also won't receive calls or receives pings from Icloud. However it is recognized and can be synced to Itunes. I just can't access my phone anyone have any idea what the problem is? I restored it with a fresh restore, can't get it to swipe. I call it, it is unreachable. I thought it was the digitizer, but i feel like the digitizer wouldn't disable it from receiving calls. Any help would be appreciated it, was trying to hold out on this phone before i got a new phone.

You clearly did not notice that you have joined a USER TO USER COMMUNITY FORUM
This is NOT Apple ,Apple do not read nor do they therefore respond
So if you would like to wind your neck in ........................
try a reset of iPhone and then a restore,best, as new and if it then functions correctly try restoring with your backup

"Apple TV is not responding" [ATV1] after 10.7.3 upgrade

Yesterday I purchased a movie on the Apple TV and then tried to sync it back to my Macintosh and got the error "Apple TV is not responding. Check that any firewall software running on this computer has been set to allow communication on port 3689." Having recently upgraded Lion to 10.7.3 I do not know if the root cause of this problem is Lion 10.7.3 or iTunes 10.5.3.
I first verified that the Apple TV was working fine and then for good measure unplugged it and re-plugged it and it came up fine. It is connected via Ethernet, so I knew that the wireless network could not be the source of the problem. I hadn't changed any security settings on my Mac recently, but to verify that the Firewall settings were not the problem I turned off the Firewall, and that still did not resolve the problem.
Finally I was able to solve the problem from within iTunes by doing the following:
- In iTunes right-click on the Apple TV icon in the sidebar under DEVICES to display the context menu.
- In the context menu there should be an option to Transfer Purchases from "Apple TV". Select that option.
- The recently purchased content on the ATV will then be transferred to the Macintosh. And after that you will be able to sync content back to the Apple TV again.
Regards

FCS 3 is working as usual for me, although FCP did re-profile the RT Extreme settings and took a couple of seconds longer to start up the first time after updating. What else have you installed or updated?
I was also on the 10.7.3 beta. It did not change anything in the behaviour of FCS 3 there either.

My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore. I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689" firewall is off

My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore. I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689" firewall is turned off.. Any ideas?

Thanks Rudegar,
I only synch and do not stream off of my 1st Gen AppleTV
I will try with ethernet but will be a pain in the butt if i can not fix it with wifi for long term fix
I may end up trying to do a named IP address vs DHCP for this appleTV (not sure if i can do both and do not want to remove DHCP as i have a bunch of sensors and other devices that I prefer to dynamically add to the network via DHCP vs. assign each one
Will keep working on other fix options (factory reset, etc.)
Thanks again

Can't start up my ipod 5thG and stay remining the logo of apple for too long don't know how to do????

can't start up my ipod 5thG and stay remining the logo of apple for too long don't know how to do????

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
