1st gen Apple tv and Zeppelin air

Hi, would my 1st gen Apple tv stream via AirPlay to a Zeppelin air? Thanks

In theory I would expect it to do so, but I would check with B&W if it behaves to all intents and purposes as an Airport Express does for Airtunes.
Hopefully someone with the combination will confirm.

Hi, I have the 1st gen apple tv and suddenly when trying to rent a movie I only see movie trailors or my movies. What do I do to see the rental interface??

hi i have the 1st gen apple tv and suddenly when trying to rent a movie i don't see the rental interface. i did a factory restore and now i see movie trailors and my movies but not rental option. any idea what could be wrong??

Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page. Some users have reported that Apple is aware of the issue. You can leave feedback for Apple at the link below.

Is it possible to run iTunes from a NAS hard drive so that the content is available to 1st Gen Apple TV and I can turn off my MacBook and still see the content of the library?

I have a first gen Apple TV with a 160 gig hard drive, it is nearly full with films and music, my iTunes library is well over 190 gig and climbing, the only way I can access all of my music and films is to have iTunes open on my Mac. I have now moved my library to a NAS device and I want to be able to run iTunes so that my entire library is available on the Apple TV without having to have my Mac switched on. So the first question I have, is this possible? Secondly, if it is possible how do you do it?
The ideal solution would be for iTunes to run from the NAS as I have already told iTunes my library is there.
Thank

You can certainly put your library on a flash drive, though I'd strongly, strongly recommend that you have another copy of your library elsewhere, as flash drives are easily lost, broken or corrupted. You cannot count on tracks always being available for redownload from the iTunes Store, if you have any such.
The easiest way to move your library is to just drag the entire iTunes folder (the _entire_ folder, _not_ just the iTunes Music folder) to your desired location. Then hold down the Shift key while launching iTunes. You'll be given a dialog box where you can select the iTunes library you want to use. Navigate to and select the iTunes folder in it's new location.
Note that this procedure assumes that all of your tracks are contained in the iTunes folder. If they're scattered around your volumes, moving them becomes much more complex. And don't launch iTunes with the flash drive not mounted or iTunes will default back to the internal drive. If it does, though, just mount the external drive and launch iTunes with the Shift key again.
Don't delete the tracks from the old location until you've confirmed that they're working correctly from the flash drive.
Regards.

1st gen Apple TV - synced photos not visible

I have my iTunes set to sync all my photos with my 1st gen Apple TV and this has worked flawlessly until today.
Although the "settings" tab on iTunes shows all my photos are synced, on the Apple TV when I go to my Photos tab I get the error message that "there are no photos on your Apple TV - to sync photos set up a connection with iTunes"
I do have a connection with iTunes - all my other media is synced, and according to iTunes the photos should be there too.
I'm at a loss as to what to do, and would be grateful for any advice.
Thanks in advance

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you tried de/re authorising your computer.

"Music Videos" under "Music" header on my 1st gen Apple TV menu is missing.

I no longer seem to have "Music Videos" under the "Music" header on my 1st gen Apple TV menu. This occurred about a month ago now (early October). Does anyone know why? I have worked with Apple Support and I have reset my device to factory settings to no avail...
I actually used this menu option often but I might have been the only person who did since I cannot find any information on it nor does anyone seem to know it even existed:)... I am more curious to find out what has happended now than expecting a fix for it.
I have had a rough couple months with my Apple products actually...:(
Thanks for taking the time to review.
Regards,
Roger Delorme.

Having the same issues.....I have two 1st Gen Apple TVs and neither are showing on the Remote App on any of my devices as of Dec 24th. Everything is connected to the same network, have most recent updates to Remote App, software of devices, itunes. Rebooted router, computer, apple tvs....deleted the app, reinstalled...turned off wifi and homesharing, then turned back on and the Remote App will only find my itunes library and not the Apple TVs. Any help would be appreciated.

If I can stream HD on my 1st gen Apple TV can I expect same from 2nd gen?

I just rented Legend of the Guardians in HD on my 1st gen Apple TV and it played instantly at 12pm on Sunday. My connection is 15 mbits according to DSLreports. Can I expect the same performance from Apple TV version 2? When I got the 1st generation Apple TV it sucked for streaming HD and now I never use it for that because the experience was so frustrating. I got an Apple TV 2 for Christmas and I'm trying to decide if I should return it before opening it. Netflix is the main appeal but I can get a bluray player that streams netflix, vudu and more for about the same price. More reliable HD streaming from Apple might be enough for me to keep it.

I have 3 Apple tv's one that is the 1st gen I think 40 gb one that is 160 gb and finally the streaming one. I think that the newer one for me seems to suffer maybe a little more interference than the 1st gen models. My fix with suggestion was to have it run on the 5GHZ side maybe it was interference I don't really know all I know that I can stream movies no problem. I do have cable service at 20 mbps it should have no problems but running at 2.4 I did have problems saying it would take hours before I could watch the movie.I download on Itunes HD movies.

How do I get Faces in iPhoto to appear on my 2ed gen Apple TV. The appear on my 1st gen Apple TV with Photos and Events.

How do I sync Faces in iphoto to iTunes and then to my 2ed gen Apple TV so I can show Events,Photos or Faces on my TV? On another TV which I have connected a 1st gen Apple TV all three appear, so some how the 1st gen is sync'ing with itunes but not so with the 2ed gen Apple TV as I ony get Events and Photos on the TV screen.

To choose which photos to show on your Apple TV
File > HomeSharing > Choose Photos to share with Apple TV
The dialogue box that opens lets you select what photos to send over

HT1551 1st Gen Apple TV - Remote worked fine yesterday and today acts like it is unpaired. Is it possible to pair it again without a working remote?

My 1st Gen Apple TV remote worked fine yesterday and today acts like it is unpaired (amber flash when I hit a button). Is there a way to pair it or another remote now?
Thanks.

A 5 GHz network cannot reach as far as a 2.4 GHz one, nor is it able to penetrate walls and the like anywhere near as well, it is not therefor always an ideal solution. It can help avoid interference from neighbouring networks but it may not avoid interference from other household appliances. You might want to try another wifi channel or even temporarily move the Apple TV closer to the AP for diagnostics.

Music Gone from 1st Gen Apple TV after iTunes upgrade to 10.1.1 (4)

I use a 1st Gen Apple TV to store and play all my music throughout my home. It's perfect for that because I don't have to stream from my computer (as with 2nd Gen Apple TV) and can control the music from all over the house from the Remote App on my iPad and iPhone. After I upgraded to iTunes 10.1.1 this week I synced my Apple TV with my computer to add some new music to it from iTunes. All of my music promptly disappeared from my Apple TV. It may have still been there, but didn't show in iTunes on my computer or on my iPad or iPhone remote apps.
My first thought was that I might have to do a restore on the Apple TV and then re-sync with my computer's iTunes. Before doing that, however, I simply re-synced all of my music to the Apple TV from my computer. It worked and now all of the music is available again.

had the same problem once
went to the appletv's settings and unlinked it with the computer
let it do it's restart and clear synced data
set it up to link with the same computer once more
and let it sync the data once more
haven't have issues since
but described the solution to many in this forum who had the same issue

HT3296 How do I navigate 1st gen Apple TV without ANY remote?

How do I (or can I) navigate 1st gen Apple TV without being able to use any remote?

You can use Remote app on an iOS device, however it needs to have ben configured first and that would entail using an Apple Remote.
If you have lost or do not have an Apple remote the new silver remote works with all units.
Some 3rd party programmable remotes may also have codes to use with other devices like AppleTV.

1st gen Apple TV - SD TV - no color

I'm seeing only b&w with my 1st gen Apple TV connected to an SD TV through a component to composite converter. Why don't I have color?

Thanks for your response.
I was actually wondering about iTunes updates, not Apple TV. The problem is that iTunes does not show tabs for syncing my 1st Gen. Apple TV. I wonder if the problem is in iTunes.
My Apple TV does still remember music and photos that were previously synced, but I can't re-sync to add new music and photos.
I am worried that if I unlink and re-sync, I won't be able to get anything back, and will be limited only to streaming.
Thoughts?

1st gen apple tv.

I have a 1st gen apple tv. I have always and only streamed from my 1T TC. What has heppened is: it follows menus to the selected movie and when i select the movie, the 1st 1 second of video plays and then freezes. The audio continues for i don't know how long because i stop it. I have tried to sync a movie to it (wirelessly) and it tells me i have to open port 336(?)
1. Anyone know how i can fix the streaming? or how to open a port so i can try syncing...
I'd rather stream as i have 100's of movies to stream

Applications>Utilities>Terminal
sudo ipfw add allow ip from 336 to 336
sudo reboot
If this does not work, try connecting the Apple TV to the Time Capsule via ethernet.
WARNING
Before entering sudo reboot, save any open files. You will lose all changes during the reboot.
You will need an admin password. The characters will not show when entering the password.
Also, you could go to Settings>Computers>Your Library.
Then go to Settings>Computers>Add iTunes Library. A code will be displayed. In iTunes, go to iTunes>Prefrences>Apple TV>Remove.
After that, restart iTunes. Your Apple TV should appear under Devices. Select it and enter the code.
If that doesn't work, I don't know what will.

HT1498 What has happened to movie rental in 1st gen Apple TV as the option has disappeared ?

Apple TV now only shows my movies and trailers. Does not seem to want to connect to iTunes Store. Is this Apple shutting down 1st gen Apple TV ?

I suspect what you are ssing is a symptom of a wide-spread issue with ATV's right now [though looks to be primarily Gen 1 units]. There's an existing topic here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25524317#25524317
Another thread suggested to click "I have this question too" in the thread above, and identify the generation of your device in a reply (As it may affect other generations as well.), so that it's all collected in one place.I was aslo suggested to submit the bug via the feedback page https://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html
Looks like Apple sent out a Bad Easter Egg for us 1st gen'rs, but they appear to be working on it. At the very least they are aware of the issue. I doubt it was deliberate as there was no official notice of discontinuation of support.

I have a ipod 1st gen, its frozen and wont back up. comes up with error code 1 can someone please help.

Hello! i tried to install OS5 in my 1st gen IPAD (16gb) and it froze in the process. My IPad still runs normally (on OS 4) EXCEPT itunes cannot recognize, sync or even charge my IPad!

hello! i tried to install OS5 in my 1st gen IPAD (16gb) and it froze in the process. My IPad still runs normally (on OS 4) EXCEPT itunes cannot recognize, sync or even charge my IPad!

That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...
