Problems with my "new" Apple TV

Hi,
First of all, excuse my english, I'm from Spain and I don't use to speak/write it.
I've bought a second hand Apple TV from someone in my company. The first thing I've did was complete fabric restore. After that, when I plugged it on, it starts correctly, but when I'm watching a sample music video o a movie trailer sometimes the image has little crashes (like cuts). It's strange, because before, de ATV downloads all the movie as I can see in the progress bar... The other thing I've noticed it's that I've tried to upgrade the firmware, it came with the 1.0 one (maybe those cuts are a firmware bug...), an error appear in the screen after it has downloaded the new firmware, just when I click with the remote in "apply upgrade now". Maybe I may try again...
Are these two things normal?
Thanks everybody!

The progress bar is not the whole video, just the video buffer filling, so if you have a slow connection (like me) you'll find it might stop and start despite the blue bar filling to the right.

What's the error message?
Could be AppleTv can't find the update server or something.

    I have a problem with my new Apple Air. It usually takes few seconds for the laptop to be untouched in order to be locked. So, sometimes when the screen starts to get dim in order to lock, I immediately touch the keypad to avoid locking the laptop, the result is a black screen appears with no responding to anything from pressing the keyboard to pressing the touchpad. It takes few minutes for the laptop to open again and then a message appears saying that there was a problem with the lock security.
    What is happening exactly?

    It sounds like your sleep timers are set to too low of a value.  Go to System Preferences -> Energy Saver and set both timers to longer times.  The computer sleep timer should be a longer time than the display sleep timer.

  • Homeshare login problems with my new Apple TV (2nd gen)

    My Apple ID is my first name, a space and then my last name. The problem is when I attempt to login, there is no space button (button is occupied by the "dot com" button). The underscore button and the dash button do not work. I spoke with tech support and they said I need to wait for a SW update but had no other info. Has anyone heard about any work-arounds? Any word on a SW update ETA?

    workaround would be to change your apple id so that it doesn't have a space

    no-one here will know as we are all just users like you.

  • HT201412 I have a problem connecting to the server (SSL problem) on my new Apple ipad.  I was supplied with a new ID password, but I am unable to get into my settings and email. Could someone please offer a suggestion?  Thanks!  A.A.

    I have a problem connecting to the server (SSL problem) on my new Apple Ipad (iOS6).  When submitting my Apple ID password, I am prevented from signing in to a secure connection due to an SSL problem.  Any suggestions ??  Thank you! 

    Sounds more like you have a problem with your apple id. For starters go to that page click manage my apple id and singn in. If you can't sign in reset password.
    https://appleid.apple.com
    if you can sign in there, try to sign in to itunes on your computer.

  • I have an old apple ID that is associated with an email I can no longer access, but over half of my apps are associated with this Apple ID. Any idea on how to reset the apps to go with my newer Apple ID without completely wiping my iPhone?

    I have an iPhone 4s. The email I need to use is completely locked because Windows believed someone else was trying to use my account (another reason Windows and I don't seem to get along). Anyway, I think my little sister may have accidentally clicked "Forgot my Password" while trying to download an app on my iPad that was under the same ID. So, an email was sent to my old hotmail account that is lockedried unlocking it, but the alternate email that was listed was an old one of my moms and she can't remember what her username was. I tried answering security questions on my Apple ID to maybe get my password to reset that way, but - since I made this account when I was about 12 or 13 - I can't even begin to remember what the answers to the security questions are. (And before anyone gets on a pedestal about how I was too young to be doing something like this, I did have parent supervision and wanted something like this of my own, so lets stick to the ACTUAL problem). So, main problem here. I now have about 30 app updates that are under an account I basically have no access to. I've deleted the apps from my home screen and tried downloading them with my new Apple ID, but it shows as if it's stored in the cloud and will only let me download it from the old Apple ID. Is there any possible way to dissociate my apps from my old ID and associate them with my newer one WITHOUT completely resetting my phone?

    You can not merge accounts.
    Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

    There certainly is a problem with itunes. I downloaded 9.2 and now it won't open. It won't recognize my iphone, either. I uninstalled it in the order recommended by the site, no joy. Deleted a configuration file, no joy. System Restore, no joy. All other software and hardware on the machine is working fine. I call AppleCare AND a local store, either they are completely clueless (which I doubt), or they have no idea how to fix it. I can't even back up my phone, or use the ipod. And since no one at Apple seems to care enough, I'll have to wait until the clamor is loud enough for them to even admit to a problem before I can use the ipod again.

  • Problems with the new Pages.

    Hi everyone.
    I wonder if i am the only one experiencing a little problem with the new Pages?
    My problem is that every other time i want to correct the font lets say trying to underline or make the font fatter using the hotkeys "Command+B" or "Command+U" or "Command+I", or even changing it manually in "formats" my font gets stuck, and i have to copy-paste text from another pages-file into my old one to get et back to normal.
    Anyone else tried this?
    Martin.

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
    Thanks for your help though!

    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - requires SSL:

    The Quick Answer
    Follow the instructions below to set up IMAP1 access in most email clients.
    Google Apps users, please follow the default instructions unless otherwise noted, replacing 'your_domain.com' with your actual domain2 name.
    this is all greek to me. WHAT IS STARTTLS? On the first page of Apple set up there is a TLS certificate and it is marked NONE- should I change it to the long APPLE CERT option?  The next page under ADVANCED: THERE IS A BOX SSL MARKED.  Then IMAP Path Prefix - I put stmp.gmail.com.. is that right?  Port 993 can  use this one? as 456 doesn't work and 587 said it wasn't safe.  Under AUTHENTICATION I used PASSWORD.  Should I have used external client cert TLS?
    Please help me set this up securely. Thanks

  • Hy, I have a problem with a new iPad Mini.

    Hy, I have a problem with a new iPad Mini.
    When I try to use the cameras, it doesn't work.
    I get to take 3-4 pictures and after that all I see is the shutter.
    It happends even if just start the camera app, or the facetime app, after 4-5s.
    I've reinstalled IOS 6.1 but nothing changed.
    It is a new ipad. What can I do?

    Ok, Orange Romania changed my iPad mini but now I have another problem.
    I bought the iPad mini on 01/feb/2013, took it to service on 06/feb/2013, and got another ipad mini on 12/feb/2013.
    But the new ipad mini keeps requesting the password for some user [email protected], and it does it from the first day of activation. This is suspect for me, so I checked it's serial with selfsolve.apple.com and it shows "Estimated Expiration Date: January 31, 2014" and since it has one year free service I am worried the iPad mini wasn't new.
    Please help.

  • Problems With My New Macbook

    I bought my white Macbook early February and since then i have come aross a couple of problems, so i am posting here to see if anyone else has experienced my first problem and to warn you all of the second;
    - My headphone out only plays out of the left headphone unless I turn the volume right up which causes the right ear to distort profusely.
    - The highly rated "Incase" Neoprene Sleeve I bought with it has left black stains on the sides and looking at other threads it seems that it is only the newer Macbooks that suffer with the problem with the case.
    My macbook is now with the apple repair guys for a few days to sort the headphone problem out and the person I spoke to recommended getting a new case.
    I just think it's ridiculous that they advertise the case with picture of a white macbook when it actually stains them..
    Let me know if you have experiences similar problems with the new macbooks..
    Regards,
    Martin

    I have tried multiple sets of headphones which work fine with my ipod and i still have the same problem and I get the same problem when playing music through itunes, frontrow, myspace and purevolume.
    Whilst i was on the phone to apple support they led me through a few different ways of resolving the problem easily i.e going into system preferences and checking that the pan is centered, restarting the mac by pressing 4 keys at the same time etc. and none of that fixed the problem.
    Hmm it seems that no one else has had a similar problem to this.. maybe i just got a faulty unit.. I should get my macbook back from the repair guys either today or monday so i'll find out then exactly what the problem was.
    Thank you all for your input!

  • I have a problem with my new ipad air 64g with cellular. When I off my ipad for a long period of time ( around 2 hours), my ipad air freeze. Nothing is showing on screen with any button except by pressing reboot (home   on/off button)

    I have a 64GB iPad Air WiFi+Cellular (Verizon), and I don't see the issues you are describing.  First I would suggest that you update your iPad to the newest iOS update.  If that doesn't help, then you may want to schedule an appointment at an Apple Genius Bar.  If you go this route, I suggest that you let the iPad sleep for long enough for the problem to arise before you go to your appointment.

    I downloaded apps with one appleid on my iphone.  When my account was disabled I set up a new appleid & account.  Now I cannot update apps on my iphone that were downloaded with original appleid when I login with my new apple id.  What do I need to do?

    You can write into support and ask for help reenabling the account through this link here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    Since the applications were purchased on the older account, you will need to log into that account to update them. The newer account will not recognize the purchases because they are not a part of the purchase history for the specific account.
