My Apple TV won't set the date and time! What can I do???

That means it's having trouble connecting to the network. Make sure location is set correctly. DNS should be set to automatic. Ensure router is up to date, reboot all devices. If on wifi try ethernet.

  • On the initial set up for apple tv it just sits there trying to set the date and time . it is a wireless setup and the ipaddress and router address is correct . I can't get by this screen

    On the initial set up for apple tv it just sits there trying to set the date and time . it is a wireless setup and the ipaddress and router address is correct . I can't get by this screen. The setting is on automatic and I have picked a city in my time zone yet it still tries to set a time and date but fails.
    thanks

    Make sure router is up to date. Try ethernet to rule out any wifi issues. Reboot ATV and router.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    A number of users have encountered this problem, for existing users the problem has largely been resolved by restarting the Apple TV. However since you are a new user it would be wise to check that your settings are correct to begin with. Ensure the router allows access over port 123 (TCP) and that you are using the DNS settings provided by the ISP and not your own.

    how to set the date and time in apple tv?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Also try restarting the router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
    If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
    If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

  • Setting the date and time on my Verve 450 answerin...

    I have set the time and date on all the handsets, but when we pick up a voicemail, the date and time on the message bears no relation to reality!  The instructions do not provide any advice on setting the date and time on the answering machine.

    Well after i change it it seems fine, but when i use it another time it has been changed.

  • Camileo P100 camcorder won't store the date and time

    My recently purchased camileo P100 camcorder won't store the date and time.
    Every time it is started it has to be reset as it returns to the default date.
    Has anybody else had this problem

    I've got the same problem and reported it allready to Toshiba support.
    Although I mentioned that there were allready more people who posted this problem, toshiba replied that they didn't receive such complaints. I was advised to return my camera to the reseller which I did'n do because I think it's a software problem so all the P100's have the same problem

  • How do I programatically set the date and time of my FP-2000 in LabVIEW RT?

    I checked out the following knowledgebase document which has a tool for setting the system time, but I also need to set the date:

    How can I do this?
    -Jim

    That is great, Steven. I also found a solution using GetSystemTime and SetSystemTime which are functions in kernel32.dll that get and set the system date-time. This function call worked on the FP-2000 that I have and should work on RT-Embeded systes, as well.

  • Why can't I set the date and time insert to the format I want?

    I would like the date to be formatted in the short form on my docs.  However whenever I insert date and Time it always come out  at the long form i.e.
    Monday, 15 April 2013.
    Right clicking allows me to edit it but the next time I inset it the long form re-appears.
    I've tried to do it via the system preferences > language and text > region > customise  route but the same thing thing happens.  I choose the short form at the top of the choices but it still comes out in the long form on the docs.
    Only a minor point but it is irritating 'cos it should be simple (probably is 'cept I'm a bit slow).
    I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.3
    Thanks
    W.

    Wilfred.   I found this in one of the More like this posts   >>>>>  opposite your first post.  It might apply if you are on Pages 08.   Insert Date/Time: Apple Support Communities
    I would never have thought of double or right clicking on the date itself.  I haven't tested it to see what formats exist.   One last suggestion, if we don't resolve it here, write a new post and put it in the iWork pages columns.   There you may meet up with the gurus in that persuasion.

  • HT1600 My apple tv does not uptdate the data and time and I can not get it to it

    Hello, my apple tv is just dead. It cannot update date and time and I dont have a wayt to access it.

    There isn't one.
    AppleTV3 has icons for all the internet features.

  • I "restored" my Apple TV and now it is 37 hours into the step, "activating the date and time"? I am stuck.

    My Apple TV stopped working while watching a Netflix show and the light on the box started blinking. It seemed like all I could do was "restore" which I did. Then in the process of restarting the Apple TV it said "activating the date and time".It has been stuck on this spot ever since (2 days). Everytime I turn the Apple TV back on to see where it is, it is still on this step. As for my choices on what I would call the main screen, I can either go to "Settings" or "Computers". All the numerous choices available (Netflix, Podcasts, NBA, MLB, You Tube, etc, etc) are not available..not even on the screen. This Apple TV box is pretty much useless at this point. Any advice??

        1.    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
        2.    Also try restarting the router.
        3.    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.

  • My laptop died last night and the date and time was set for 1/1/2000. I went to change the date and time and cannot. For some reason when i pull up system preferences it will not load date and time but will load other stuff. Please help.

    Last night my laptop died and the time and date was reset. I cannot acess date and time preferences to change it and my laptop is acting really weird. My CD drive is broken so there are no options to put in a cd. Please someone help i need my laptop for school and cannot afford another.

    Many system actions will misbehave, given an inaccurate date. Resetting the NVRAM and / or SMC will not fix it, and if the system has a preposterous date you may not be able to open System Preferences to correct it. This dilemma may or may not be addressed in a future OS X update.
    If you cannot open System Preferences you can reset your system date and time using Terminal.
    Please read everything that follows before proceeding. Write them down if necessary because the effects of setting a preposterous system date are unpredictable.
    Quit System Preferences, force quit if necessary: OS X: How to quit an unresponsive application using Force Quit
    Open Terminal - it is in your Utilities folder and looks like this
    You can find Terminal by using the Finder's Go menu and choosing Utilities, then double-click the Terminal icon.
    At the prompt, you will be typing a command resembling the following:
    sudo date mmddhhnnyyyy
    ... but you must substitute the actual date and time in the command that corresponds to the date format used for your location. In other words if your custom is to use a date like 8 February 2014 then reverse the mm and dd values.
    Substitute numerals in the above command according to the following:
    mm = month
    dd = date
    hh = hour (24 hour format)
    nn = minutes past the hour
    yyyy = year
    Each of those values must be two digits except for the year which can be two or four digits. As an example if the current date and time is February 8, 2014 at 9 PM your command will be the following:
    sudo date 020821002014
    or
    sudo date 0208210014
    Either one will work. If you enter nonsensical values the system will attempt to parse the entry correctly.
    To recover from your inability to use System Preferences to set the date and time, the value entered does not have to be precise, it just has to be approximate.
    Enter that command using the actual time and date for your location and in the appropriate format, then press the Return key. Terminal will ask for your Admin Password - the same one you use when you log in to your Mac. Type it and then press the Return key. What you type will not appear, not even with •••• characters.
    To determine if your change was effective just type the date command and press the Return key. Terminal will reply with the date and time. If it appears correct and in the correct format, you should be able to open System Preferences > Date & Time once again. Selecting the "Set time and date automatically" and choosing an appropriate time server will adjust your Mac's system clock to the precise time.

  • How do I import photos from a memory card that didn't have the date and time set yet?

    Aloha,
    So I got a new 5dmark 3 and I was shooting a wedding and didn't set the date and time before I started shooting. When I uploaded the images to Lightroom they uploaded all over the place and not in order. Is there a way to upload to lightroom and keep them in order?
    THanks so much,
    Eric

    You can change the sort order to filename. That's what I prefer to use, and it keeps my images in shooting order.
