Always have to re-boot Apple TV to use Airplay

Apple TV drops off the network, so I always have to reboot to use Airplay

That usually points to network interference. Use istumbler or netstumbler to verify.

    I have just created an apple id to use face time. However whenI try to log in I get the message 'email already verified' and then can't move on.
    Can anyone help please.

    You must create the account using an Apple device, a Mac (Lion or greater) or an IOS device (IOS5 or greater). Having done that you will be able to sign in from your Windows machine.
    FYI, iCal is an application that can display calendars from iCloud (and others) it is not a calendar itself, merely a calendar client. In Windows Outlook is the calendar client.

  • Always have Permission Errors running Apple Disk Utility

    I always have Permissions errors when running Apple Disk Utility. Even after a clean install (and restore of User prefs using Time Capsule).
    Most of the errors are "Repaired" but are still there if I "Repair Permissions" immediately again.
    Is this a problem that I can just ignore of should I try and rid my system of them?
    For example:   
    Permissions differ on “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support/Rem ote Desktop Message.app/Contents/Resources/pl.lproj/UIAgent.nib”; should be -rw-r--r-- ; they are drw-r--r-- .
    Repaired “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support/Rem ote Desktop Message.app/Contents/Resources/pl.lproj/UIAgent.nib”
    The above error will still be there if I re-repair.

    You can just ignore them all.

  • HT201343 If you have a Mac Pro and want to use airplay, this work great with an apple TV set up!

    Now like my iOS and MacBook Air I can use apple tv on my Mac Pro tower! Try before you buy!

    Yes count your self lucky.  AirPlay is extremely failure prone and very aggravating to most users.  Espeically if you do not have EXTREMELY high end networking hard ware if you are using WiFi.  If you insist on going down this road you can look into an app called AirPariot.  It might let you use AirPlay..... but again I wouldn't

  • No sound from apple tv when using airplay

    Hey,
    So here my problem, when I use airplay from my MBP(or iPhone)to my ATV2 audio will dropout. The song stil plays in iTunes(I can tell by the minute count) but no audio comes through my ATV2. Im using an ATT Uverse Cisco router, and all software is up to date.

    I occasionally have the same problem,I have found if I unplug the app tv it now works ok sometimes I have to hard reset the ipd iPhone for this to work in fact it did it a few hours ago and it's now working again.I hope this helps

  • Why do I always have to reboot my apple tv 2 to get it to work?

    Every time I turn my apple tv back on I have to reboot it. If I don't, the only options I see are Internet Computers and Settings. Once I reboot it I get the full options. This is really annoying and makes no sense. Any thoughts?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Sounds like you are losing connection to the internet to me, this could be your network settings or interference if you use wifi.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.

  • Why do i always have to sign into apple support communities

    cant it just keep me signed in all the time?  i have the username password stored, but everytime i visit i still have to sign in by clicking.

    I have a solution that is guaranteed to work - and I'm using it right now.
    1Password is a password manager plus that automatically saves all of your sensitive logins and passwords. I use it for forums like this, banking, and other accounts - online and other. The way it works is like this: when you go to a site that requires a password, 1Password will iniitially ask for your Apple password; after this, your passwords can be entered by going to a relevant site, clicking the 1Password icon, and pressing Enter. It saves a ton of time.
    If you've slept your machine, it will ask for your login again. But security with 1Password is very good, and it will work with Safari and Firefox.
    If this is helpful, poat here with your remarks!

  • Do I need to always have a keyboard and monitor connected to use as a home share device for movies and music?

    I have two MacBook airs and two Apple tv's. I want to set up a Mac mini and rip over 800 dvd's and 600cd's to it then use the apple tv's to veiw the movies and play songs. Just in my house not streaming over the net. I am looking at the Mac mini server with the 2 1 TB drives. I know I don't need the server but it is the drives I'm looking at. I want to set up the mini and then remove the key board and monitor.
    Does this sound right? Any better ideas?

    I'm running a mini with no monitor, and have had no problems.  I use Screen Sharing when I need to get into it, and for those rare occasions when I can't reach it via SS, I have a monitor that i'll pull out of storage to get everything back in working order.
    How are the two 1 TB drives configured?  If they're mirroring, then you may need more capacity if you're going to rip 800 DVDs. And while we're on the subject of drives, I can't tell from your comment if you're going to buy a Thunderbolt drive, but you should be able to get away with something much cheaper (and slower) like a USB2.0 drive.

  • HT204291 must u have to have an apple tv to use airplay?

    Hi
    Im getting a macbook air soon and my mums friend had airplay, and used her mac with the airplay.
    Im going to get airplay but I dont have an apple tv.
    Can I still do it?
    If so how?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    So far as I know, the Apple TV is the only device that accepts video airplay, however there are several 3rd party speaker solutions that support audio only.

  • Can I send live camcorder video from my iPhone 4S to Apple TV Gen3 using AirPlay Mirroring?

    Our bar band just purchased a couple TV sets to hang on light stands at our shows... we'd like to walk around with a handheld camcorder or iPhone and send that live video to the TV sets.   We are thinking of using an iPhone 4S and an Apple TV... connect the iPhone 4S to the Apple TV (Gen 3) via AirPlay Mirroring... then walk around the dance floor with the iPhone 4S using it's camcorder and display that live feed to the TV sets.
    Will this work?
    Is there a better way?   The other option we were thinking would involve some kind of wireless video transmitter and receiver.
    TIA,
    RossInGA

    Yes
    Is there a better way?   More than likely your best solution would be commercial equipment, mirroring live images works fine around my home, but may not work so well in other environments. The iPhone also shows the camera controls, but then again that could be a desired effect.

    I have similar problem, my apple tv which has always worked properly with my Samsung tv will no longer play any audio after the latest 5.1 upgrade. Very frustrating as it was working perfectly before. I am starting to not trust apple upgrades until proven for example ios6 on iPhone with that stupid map app instead of google maps.
    I just want to buy and hear my iTunes music and videos on my apple tv, could before cant now. Thank you apple. Time to pack up the apple tv and start torrenting without the ios-bs.
    Disheartened apple fan.

    Welcome to the  discussion forums.
    Try going to synching in the sources menu on your tv and selecting 'change itunes library', when it gives you the passcode check itunes to see if the tv is showing up as a new device, if so try entering the pass code. It may be that your tv is seeing itunes as a different library because of a recent upgrade.

  • Hello, my name is Karan Taneja and i have been a loyal Apple customer. I have been using Apple since it introduced iphone 4 and have been upgrading/buying every new phone Apple introduces after that. I was always happy and surprized to see Apple doing so

    Hello, my name is Karan Taneja and i have been a loyal Apple customer.
    I have been using Apple since it introduced iphone 4 and have been upgrading/buying every new phone Apple introduces after that.
    I was always happy and surprized to see Apple doing so good to its customers.
    Unfortunately, i experienced some thing really unprofessional and different this time.
    It begun suddenly one day when i tried to charge my phone, the phone was on silent mode and as usual the phone vibrated when i kept it for charge.
    After a few seconds the phone vibrated twice or thrice again when i re-inserted the cable thinking it might be loose.
    It continued to charge well when i left the room for 2 hours and finally when i returned i could see a damaged i phone 5
    lying on the floor and the phone vibrating continuously and i figured out there was a fault with the cable and the
    current wasnt flowing continuously due to which the phone continued to vibrate and fell off the shelf.
    Next day i took the iphone to Apple service centre at Saket which was closed.
    Thinking its August 15 and so the store might be closed i went back to home and waited for the next day but unfortunately could not turn up since
    i had to go to work on odd timings.
    I again went to the same service centre on 17th August 2013 and saw the service centre closed again when i tried to contact
    the other service centre and was informed about Saket's service centre already been shut down.
    There was no hoarding/ banner any kind of intimation for the customers.
    Since 18th August was Sunday and i was occupied on 19th August i went to service centre at Ansal Plaza Khel Gaon Marg on
    20th August 2013 to complaint about the Faulty Cable and the damaged caused to my iphone 5 due to the same.
    I very well explained the same to one of the person at the receiving desk at the service centre who accepted the cable
    but explained me that he doesnt have the authority to accept my iphone without permission from the technical support people
    who will be able to help me in that case and gave me the toll free number.
    i Tried to reach the toll free number and finally managed to get online with a technical support executives who too all my details and
    summary of the problem i experienced and finally kept me on hold for almost 10 minutes ormore after which he said he said that my
    case cannot be considered and while the discussion was on, the call was disconnected and i was left frustrated as i still was at the service centre
    but finally i left with no hope from Apple .
    I tried to reach again at the toll free number, and finally managed to talk to a well behaved person who assured me of considering my case and suggested
    me to go back to the service centre and advice the the person at the recieving end there to get me connected to the technical support team when i reach so that i could
    submit my phone but, since, it was already around 4:30 and the service centre was about to shut and due to traffic
    conditions all around i thought of visiting the service centre next day.
    On 21st August 2013, i went back to the service centre and spoke to the one of the store person who adviced the case to the manager Mr. Alok ( as i remember )
    who was really rude to tell me that i will have to call the technical support team on my own and then he will connect and that its not his work and all that .
    I finally connected to one of the senior technical support executives Mr.Mohamed Azharuddin K who understood my concern and spoke to the manager of the store to accept
    my iphone.
    My iphone was finally collected and i was assured i would get a call back next day from the service centre about the update.
    It was now 22nd August 2013, no update was given,no call was received, i tried to call the service centre at 12:30, they were unaware about my case and knew only about the cable and said will call me
    back very shortly.
    I called back at 2:30, still no update, at 4:30 i called back again when i was told that my case cannot be considered and i can collect my phone.
    Similar discussion was held with Mr.Mohamed Azharuddin K.
    I knew by the time i will reach the service centre would again close.
    He told me that my case cannot be considered since the cable was recieved in the dead condition and wasnt working at all unlike what i told him about the cable.
    On 23th August 2013, i went back to the service centre and collected my phone. When i asked about my old cable and told them that it was working and i wanted the technician
    to check it properly when i handed it over, they had no answer but to say its already shipped. I spoke to the manager who said that he never told any body that the cable
    was received in dead condition and he only conveyed to other authorities that the cable had fault .
    I finally dont know what to do and came back with the new cable.
    I just visited my time, petrol and parking charges in getting the cable replaced.
    If i calculated i have spent around 16 hours and 2000 worth of money in just getting the cable replaced and have a broken phone in hand.
    More than a weeks torture.
    Is that the way apple compensates for its fault ????????????????
    I will make sure that i never buy any thing from Apple and advice all the people i know to not trust Apple blindly.

    Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum.  Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is.  Apple is not here.  It's users, like you. 
    If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.
