Network not able to set date and time

Live outside of US and have my new Apple TV set to my Air Express WiFi network but I have not found a way to set the date and time. I have set my region time zone but stll no luck. I cannot move forward with the installation until I resove this problem. So far my Apple TV is only good for Air Play of my Spotify music and YouTube. Without date and time can't even set iTunes. Help!

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.

  • Not able to set date and time

    I have a problem with automatic date and time will not initiate. I have wireless connection verified; my DHCP is properly configured, the latest i-Tunes software update, homesharing ID matched with computer and security firewall verified configured properly for allowing all incoming connections. Second Apple TV 2 bought in past two days where it will not update wirelessly. Is this a port problem, NTP, or related to software update that went wrong?
    Contacted router vendor to troubleshoot their device. Verified with my computer, the wireless router works. Has anyone seen this problem before?
       Thanks!

    If you have previously been able to use your Apple TV without this problem, you might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for a 30 seconds. if this doesn't help try a restore.

  • Not able to adjust date and time - format does not permit

    Hello,
    I just scanned one old photo as a JPG and then imported it to Aperture 2, I renamed the file 1976-07-01_01.jpg based on the date the pic was taken. Then I tried to adjust the date and time in Aperture but got this error window:
    "Unable to adjust master file
    Aperture was not able to adjust the date and time of the master file "pic.jpg" because it has a format that does not permit date modification."
    What next?

    I am having a similar problem. The time is off by 12 hours exactly (ahead). When I touch date and time, screen goes black for less than a second and then reverts to main screen with all of the icons. I have first generation touch and just noticed this problem. All of the software is up to date. Any one know of a fix for this?

  • Not able to adjust Date and Time

    For about a month now I haven't been able to manually adjust the time and date. Everything else on my iPod works fine... but when I click to change time and date it just goes black for about one second then goes back to the main menu. I don't think anything has been added to it that is unsafe.. but to be sure I scanned all my folders that are on my iPod and then scanned my entire computer. Nothing came up in the scan.
    I do have the most up to date version of the software that is out.
    It currently says that it is Friday, February 23, 2007 at 5:33pm. It changed it's time and date on it's own... I can't correct it.
    So if anyone knows how to fix this please tell me how.

  • HT1595 My apple tv stuck at setting date and time. Also when connecting yo network doesn't ask for network password

    My apple tv stuck at setting date and time. Also when connecting yo network doesn't ask for network password

    I just went through this last night. (Aug 15, 2013)
    What I did to get back up and running. This is not the first time I have lost the network connection with my Apple TV 3
    Products effected: Apple TV 3 and Home Sharing (My Apple TV 1 was not effected)
    Power down (unplug) the Apple TV and power down your router ( in my case, it is a FIOS router, flipping the on/off works fine).
    Power both items back up.
    At this point, I usually can reenter my Apple ID and PW. and reconnect Home Sharing.  But for some reason I was unable to reconnect last night but was able to get it reconnected in the morning. I was jut to tired to deal with it last night.
    A new issue that is was able to fix after a good nights sleep.
    I did figure out, (after trying to reenter my ID and PW many times and having it tell me that my ID and PW was wrong), that when using the Apple TV on screen keypad to type in the user ID. DO NOT use the ".com" keypad button. Instead type out each character for .com. ( or what ever ending you use for your ID account.)
    Once I typed out my full ID and PW. everything is back to 100%

  • Can not set date and time

  • Stuck on "setting date and time" page-tried hitting menu to reset network, but it stays on the setting date and time page.  Any advice?

    Anyone know how to fix this? It's reading the remote because the light is flashing when I click on many, but it's staying on the "setting date and time" page.  Any workaround here would be great.  Thanks peeps!

    This is indication of a network issue... .ensure that the DNS settings are set to Automatic.
    If the ATV is not responding to the remote, start by unplugging the device then plugging it back in.  If it still fails to respond, restore via iTunes on the computer.

  • "RT Set date and time" does not set seconds in UTC mode

    Hallo,
    I tried to set the time on my cRio 9012 with the function settimeUTC which is used by the "Set Date and Time" vi. But the seconds I enter are ADDED to the current time and not set as new value.
    Even the vi shows this behaviour: I set up a vi in which the time is set in a loop (100ms delay) and read again. When I set local time the clock stops (as expected) but when I set the UTC time the seconds keep on running...
    Can anybody help me with that problem???
    Thanks
    Florian
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Andreas,
    well it does not matter if I set a time zone in the MAX or not. In my example I was working on UTC + 0 but even when I set it to my local time (UTC + 1) I get the same behaviour modified by one hour.
    My LabView Version is 8.5. In in the MAX under Software-> LabView-RealTime it says that I am using 8.5.0.
    I suspect  that the settime.out which is installed on the cRio is probably the root of the problem as VxWorks itself does not offer a function (at least I did not find one) to convert from broken down system time to system time in seconds. There only exist one to convert from broken down local time to system time in seconds ( mktime() ). The reverse function is available for both cases: gmtime() and localtime(). I also did not find a way to find out the offset of the local time. So I have to use the library function settimeUTC() from settime.out.
    As I offered I can send you the settime.out file from my cRio for reference or maybe you can tell me how to find out what the version of the file is. It seems not to be an ELF file as I looked inside it to find some timestamp or version info...
    Thanks so far

  • TS4268 I changed set date and time automatically to "no" and I was able to activate iMessage. This seems contrary to all the troubleshooting discussions I've been reading.

    Is there any definitive info on this subject?

    When ATV is setting date and time, and hangs there, it usually indicate there isn't a network connection.  Is your router still working, is the Internet for all the other computers on the same network working?  Have you tried changing from WiFi connection to Ethernet or vice versa?

  • Can not set date and time on a new Apple TV

    can not set date and time in a new appletv

    Hello lfsalas55,
    You may need to verify that TCP port 123 on your router is open and available for use by your Apple TV.

  • Trying to setup my new ATV and it won't set date and time, and won't allow me to log in with my apple ID.

    Trying to setup my new ATV and it won't set date and time, and won't allow me to log in with my apple ID to homeshare OR to test te network, which I know is correct since I changed it. I live in an apartment complex and the router is in my roommates room. ANY suggestions? I'm at the point where I may return this because it has been nothing but a hassle. I'm very annoyed and just want the product that I paid for to actually work.
    The ABOUT section says Network Time: Skipped (reachable) and Activation: Failed (skipped)
    I'm also using my MacBook Pro as the homesharing with iTunes up to date.

    I had a similar issue wuth my new Apple TV.  If you (or your roommate) are able to change the router firewall settings, do that first.  I don't know the ports that you need, except that 123 is one of them (to set the time).  Then restart the Apple TV.  See if that will get you through the activation process.  I actually ended up restoring mine to factory settings, but I'm not sure if that step was really necessary.
    I understand your frustration, though.  Getting the Apple TV to work was such a pain -- it almost feels like it is not really an Apple product.

  • Keychain problem and "Set date and time automatically"

    Something very strange appened to me today. I spent a few hours to get it through.
    All starts when I decided to open System Preferences and *set date and time manually* (I lost date and time because I left my PowerBook without its battery for an hour). At the next login, Leopard was no more able to access keychain's stored passwords, even if all items on Keychain Access were right there. Everytime I tried to read one item's password, a pop-up window reminded me that I had not the right to do it. As soon as I set back "date and time" on automatic (time.euro.apple.com - for me) all became normal (all iCal reminders appeared at on time) and all services started to get their passwords from the stored list.
    Sorry for my English (I'm from Italy).
    Someone got the same issue?

    That looks like the correct IP address for the Apple NTP. Not sure why your AEBS is not getting the time stamp.
    Would you mind double-checking the following setting, using the AirPort Admin Utility?
    AirPort Tab - Base Station Options: Logging/NTP
    - Set Date & Time Automatically: time.apple.com (checked)
    Is it possible that you have UDP blocked on port 123? Is your AEBS connected to another Internet router?

  • Set date and time

    I recently updated the apple tv .It was fine after the update although i did not use it as i was on my way out after the update.Days later when i put in on it cant seem to open itunes.reason being network time cannot be updated.i tried sighning out and now i cant sighn in.I tried reset that just brings me to a halt on screen that says activating setting date and time.Does any one know whats going on.Is the time server down ? Or something .Itune store sighn in works well in my pc ,ipad and other devices no problem.
    And i tried putting off all firewalls in router but no luck.
    Its connected wirelessly to the same router which normally works
    Any idea guys

    HI
    I have tried everything possible such as router firewall settings changing DNS servers using WIFI and ETHERNET nothing works.Waited for more updates nothing so far.The only solution is to down grade the firmware through itunes .Using now 5.0.2 works like a charm .Don't wait any longer just search apple forum for procedure and follow.Use a mac better.It takes only 5 minutes for the process.All you need is a mac or windows pc,usb cable,the type that goes behind the apple tv,(I used a blackberry bold 9900 original cable),software known as ipsw.YOU DONT NEED TO POWER THE APPLE TV WHILE DOING THIS.IT WILL LIGHT THE LED FROM PC POWER.GO TO https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4419016?start=0&tstart=0  Read procedure written by cwlown .JUST MAKE SURE FOR MAC HOLD OPTION KEY DOWN THEN CLICK RESTORE .POINT TO THE DOWNLODED ipsw AND RUN.FOR WINDOWS HOLD SHIFT THEN CLICK RESTORE .POINT TO Ipsw download and run.There is no neen to unzip or extract ipsw.I had a problem when using windows xp ipsw did not show up as an upgradeable firmware therefore could not run it.I did not want to waste time and used the mac instead.I think renaming the ipsw in windows could have cleared the problem.Another thing is after the downgrade itunes will say that your APPLE TV is restored to its factory defaults don't worry the job is done ,check your software on the APPLE TV THROUGH your tv LOCATED at general then about.SETTING up the ATV first connect the wifi or lan cable select location first THEN sign in.

  • Set Date and Time Automatically...doesn't

    We've noticed that the setting to automatically synchronize date and time to Apple's time server doesn't work if the system preference is 'locked'
    In other words, if the user that's logged in currently, isn't an admin user, then the machine doesn't set the date and time automatically.
    As soon as you unlock the system preference by clicking the padlock at the bottom, the date and time sync as they should.
    Anyone else noticed this?

    We do want the clock correct. The issue here is that the internal clocks drift - as I understand it, this is the one of the main reasons behind using a network time server.
    With the Date and time preferences set to 'Set date and time automatically', the but with the lock at the bottom corner locked- it's as though being locked is preventing the automatic date and time settings from updating.
    But the preference is checked on, and so the clock should be 'resetting' itself as necessary.
    To give an example- say the machine has been off for a while, and unplugged. This will cause the machine not to know what the Date and Time is. When the machine starts up, the preference should kick in, and the machine should 'Update date and time' automatically.
    But it doesn't. So long as that padlock is locked, even though the preference is checked on, the machine will not alter the date and time - until the padlock is unlocked.
