Another Apple TV syncing/streaming fix

I've tried every fix in these forums during the past 5 months, and none of them worked. I have been having the same problems that other people have -- Apple TV disappearing in iTunes, sync errors, and streaming only working for a few minutes after a restart. Here is my set up...
iMac (wifi)
Macbook Pro (wifi)
Powerbook (wifi)
Apple TV (wifi)
Airport Extreme (b/g)
Here is what I did to fix the problem...
1. Changed my wifi channel number (I changed mine from 1 to 8)
2. Check whether you have multicasting turned on in your router. I heard Apple TV uses this to maintain connections with other computers on the network. I ensured mine was on and raised my setting from 2 to 5.5.
Everything has been working perfectly for 2 days! I can even click "Sync" in iTunes and it works! That has NEVER worked before.
As with the rest of the posts here, you may not find success with this one. I just wanted to throw my story into the mix with the hope that it can help a few others.

awesome! glad to hear you were able to find a remedy.
unfortunately the only multicast filtering my Linksys WRT54G-L does is filtering multicasts from the Internet port which is on a completely different subnet than the local net.
my problem may actually be more of a bug than a setting. last night while plugging and unplugging my ethernet cable the darned thing started working again. i tried to reproduce the results to no avail.
works fine if i go back to 2.0.
glad yours works though. there is hope!

Please help me.

If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

How do I sync my iphone 5 to another apple id then the initial one

how do I sync my iphone 5 to another apple id then the initial one

If you mean your iCloud Apple ID, you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your other ID. If you are signing back into the same account, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in. If you are changing accounts (by setting up a new account with a new ID), when you delete the account be sure to choose Keep on My iPhone. Then create the new account, turn on your data syncing and choose Merge to upload your data to the new account.
If you change accounts you will be assigned a new iCloud email address. You will also lose your photo stream. If you have any photos in your my photo stream album that are not saved to your camera roll that you want to keep, before deleting your orignal account, open the My Photo Steam album, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to keep, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.

Apple TV sync disrupts AirTunes streaming to airport express

Whenever my Apple TV is syncing with iTunes it disrupts my AirTunes stream to my airport express - the audio just stops playing.
Is there a way to fix this? Perhaps slow down the Apple TV sync so it doesn't suck up all the bandwidth so my airtunes stream keeps playing? Not sure if that's really the problem though.
Thanks for the help.

Yes, they ditched this useful feature with AppleTV2.

Will there be another softerware update SOON to fix the syncing issue iOS 6.14 caused?

Will Apple offer another update SOON that will FIX the syncing issues?
I have tried EVERYTHING: backups, restarting phone, uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes, etc. . NOTHING WORKS
I look forward to having my phone sync to my computer so I can save all my information on my external hard drive.
This issue has been occurring ever since I downloaded and updated the iOS 6.14 software.
Everyone is having this same issue, if anyone knows a way to "fix" it please let me know, if not. . . APPLE I need you to begin working on a solution. Thanks!

False.
You are not addressing Apple here. We are all Apple users, just like you.

How can I delete the incorrect apple id?

My itunes comes up with this when i try to download purchased songs: this devise is already associated with an apple id. this devise can be used with another apple id in 82 days. i need help to see if i can fix this problem please.

i have an iphone 4s i signed out of my itunes on the devise and my friend signed herself into ituned but i signed her out an myself back in but my purchased songs and tones cannot download. it gives me a message of:this device is already associated with an apple id. this device can be used with another apple id in 82 days! is there anyway for me to fix this or override something. im freaking out!!

Sorry: once a device has been authorised for a particular iTunes account you can't change it to another until 90 days have passed. This is to prevent people cirumventing the restrictions of purchases to one account from consteantly swopping between accounts. You will have to wait for the 82 remaining days, and there is no workaround.

I have a long-existing iPhone 4s with one apple id and started a job where I received a macbook with another apple id. how do i get my phone to sync with the Mac Pro and secondly how do i get my music on there?

No not bothered about sycing apps etc it is all about calendars and maybe notes. IN terms of how its done I just want it the easiest way and preferably so that if an entry is made on one calendar then it populates the other.
Thgius is beacuse I have my work diary on outlok, which I then link with my ical. I want to make sure that information is then shared with her.

When I go to update my apps another apple ID comes up. I tried signing out and signing back in. How can I fix this?

Was that other apple id used to purchase/download the app? If yes you will need to use that apple id and password to update the app. http://support.apple.com/kb/he37

How do I fix this error? 'This invitation to receive assigned content has already been accepted by another apple id'

I'm trying to send apps to the ipad.
To use VPP it says the user need to except the inventation.
WHen they try to, they get this error "This invitation to receive assigned content has already been accepted by another apple id"

I had this same issue as well.
I ended up calling Apple Support about the issue. After being on the phone for an hour and trying every thing to fix it, we determined that a certificate was messed up and the server had to be set up from scratch again. I had to reinstall the OS on the Mac Mini Server then reinstall the server app. After setting things back up again everything for user VPP enrollment and pushing apps works now.
My server was still in the testing stage so it wasn't a big deal for me to do.
Did you try removing the user from the program under the user account's About tab in profile manager? Or does the user not show that they're actually enrolled? (Mine wasn't showing they were enrolled but gave that error message you stated)
There is a way to remove Profile Manager content from the server using a Terminal command, i'd try to do that before completely re-doing the server.

I have recently had my MacBook Pro and iPad stolen so I have bought a new iPad, since syncing to my existing Apple ID account I keep getting another Apple ID popping up asking for the password. Does this mean that the owner of this appe ID have my stuff?

You should change your AppleID password NOW. And if it says it was registered under another AppleID, the thief has probably done it.

IOS6 and iphoto, iPad, Apple TV sync problem still unresolved. Turning on and off a few times have not helped. What should I do now? wait for an upgrade fix?

"&" is not the obvious bug/answer. Not sure what went wrong as I cannot select albums and events for sync. Situation is worse for iPad and Apple TV when error 1140 message popped up even before backup get completed.

Download and install the iPhoto 9.4.1 update, which was just released today. It may be the answer to your problems:

Be sure that neither iTunes nor iPhoto is running when you install the iPhoto 9.4.1 update. After installing the update, then restart iTunes and iPhoto. By default, "All photos" is selected. Change this (it's no longer grayed out) to "Selected albums..." and you should be OK.

Yes. Use the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes.

I just got an iphone 3GS and am trying to set up a game center account and it lets me log in with my apple id and password but when it come time to set up a nickname it tells me my email is already in use with another apple id. How do I fix this?

I have been trying to log in to the game center for 2 days now with no luck. I have an apple id and have never used game center before. It keeps telling me my email is already in use with another apple id and I have no idea how to get around this and would like to be able to play my games.

If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.
