Apple tv 2 AirPlay problem: doesn't see iPad or iPod

Hi,
I've a problem with my APple Tv 2.
The iPad doesn't see the Apple Tv, so I have to clear the setti gA about account and everything else and then everything workstation fine but not for long! If try the very Next day it doesn't works and i've to repeate tris annoying procedure once again!
Please help!

I'd still try to get rid of the coaster.
The cork is an insulator even if it feels warm it will prevent heat loss from the case of the Tivo below it, and will tend to keep heat in the sandstone above it which is conducting heat from AppleTV base.
I suspect the sandstone gets quite warm being in direct contact with the base of the AppleTV, but the heat can't go down through it's major surface area due to the cork insulating.
Some of my AppleTV's are of glass shelves - the heat will conduct into the glass but there's air below the glass that will keep it cooler - if there was a layer of cork underneath it would insulate against heat loss.
How about having 4 stacks of coins under each corner of the AppleTV to create an air-gap whilst minimising surface area (you could try 3 (2 front or back at corners, 1 in back/front center position, but might not be perfectly stable.
No harm trying.

  • Apple Unveils All-New iTunes U App for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch

    A colleague just told me about this announcement from Apple -
    Apple Unveils All-New iTunes U App for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch -
    http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2012/01/19Apple-Unveils-All-New-iTunes-U-App-for -iPad-iPhone-iPod-touch.html
    Do any fellow iTunes U administrators know anything about this? How is existing content presented in the new app? Would we need to change anything? How do we access / make available the new features?
    The new features sound fantastic but it would have been nice to have some warning. I appreciate that Apple has to keep specific details about developments confidential but it's slightly disconcerting that iTunes U administrators were not forewarned about this new development and that there has been no mention of it on this forum. Also - and at the risk of sounding like a broken record - it really would be helpful for iTunes U administrators to have a private forum (perhaps an add-on to Public Site Manager) where we could discuss issues and share ideas and best practice etc.

    Greetings Tom;
    I watched the Apple's Keynote presentation and I'm amazed!  I'm really excited about the possibilities this opens up for educators.  I, like you am still processing all of the information and sorting out the possibilities.
    Did you get the email about the Webcast on Wednesday the 25th at 10:00 AM PT that's going to cover the new iTunes U Corse Manager and how to publish through iTunes U Site Manager?  Hopefully this is available to you in the UK.  We'll keep in touch.  All the best...

  • No question, just a remark to say how upset I am that Apple still does not have flash player on iPad or iPod touch. Still upset not to be able to view my family's video on my iPad! Upset customer!

    This is a user to user forum, and Apple does not follow these discussions. But here is what Apple says about not having Flashplayer on iDevices:

    You can tell Apple your thoughts directly by using this link:

  • Apple TV and AirPlay Problems After Upgrade

    hello
    after upgrading my Apple TV 2 to version 5.0 the AirPlay icon disappeared from my iPad which is running iOS 5.1
    I spent about 2 hours with Apple support but nothing they could think of helped and they gave up
    I love my Apple TV but am wishing I never upgraded now!
    many thanks for any help

    The upgrade took that feature on my iphone4 but is still there on my ipad2

  • ITunes doesn't "see" iPad

    I have a new Macbook Pro 2.66 / 8 GB, 15" and an iPad and an iPhone. The problem is that every now and then - about once a day or so, iTunes doesn't see the iPad or iPhone when they are plugged in. The device starts charging but there is no indication that a sync is occuring.
    Following the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747 I reinstall iTunes and replace the AppleMobileDevice kexts and then things are fine, but after another day or so the problem occurs again. I have not been able to determine what might be causing that. Any idea?

    This totally does not address the problem. I have had my iPad for only a few days and I'm about to return it. I've been able to sync it once, after installing a new OS, then uninstalling iTunes... and then it just grabbed everything/apps from my iPod, most of which I would not have put on the new machine. Now I want to sync the apps I've purchased on the iPad and some music/movies and the computer doesn't "see" the iPad at all.
    Users should not have to wipe/restore the machine. If Apple insists on using iTunes as a portal for all things iPad, then iTunes needs a serious overhaul. It's a music tool now being used to hobble a much more dynamic machine.
    Anyhow - I like the iPad, but Apple isn't really letting me use it if I have to sync via iTunes, but iTunes isn't a functional tool.
    Thanks - please give me an option other than reinstalling iTunes many times a doy or returning my iPad.

  • Titanium OS X 10.4.11 doesn't see OS 6 iPod Touch or iPad 2d gen.

    I'd like to move music I have on my Titanium OS X 10.4.11
    to my new OS 6 iPod touch & iPad 2d gen.
    Turned on Home Sharing. Titanium DOESN'T SEE iPod Touch.
    Titanium DID SEE and sync with 1st-generation iPod Touch.
    Any ideas: I have a large collection of my CDs that I copied to iTunes.
    I can't figure out how to get them onto my new iPod Touch (or 2nd Generation iPad)
    Thanks.

    For the next person who is hampered
    attempting to get their music files from
    their older computer onto an iOS 6 (or earlier) iPod:
    I found out HOW to get my music
    (which is on my Titanium OS X 10.4.11)
    onto my iOS 6 iPod.
    I E-Mailed the INDIVIDUAL MP4 files to myself
      (1 per E-Mail).
    I then opened the E-Mail on the new iPod.
    I then opened the music files in DROPBOX.
    Now I have access to my music.  Yay !
    Takes a bit of time doing,
    ONE E-Mail per EACH song,
      but I can now enjoy my music.
    Yahoooo !

  • Itunes doesn't see ipad - and I've tried all the remedies

    My ipad 2 (ios5) isn't recognised as a device in iTunes on my iMac (running 10.6.8). I've tried all the fixes that apple recommends and tried all the suggestions on forums - updated software, different cables, ports etc. Nothing works. Any ideas?

    Here is my standard reply so you can match it against what you have already done -
    Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
    Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
    Thirdly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
    Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs
    And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -

  • Itunes sees ipod, but doesn't see songs in ipod

    Hi there!
    I've updated itunes, updated and reset the ipod twice. Problem is that when I plug in the ipod, itunes will come up and it sees my ipod, but it won't show any of the content. If I drag songs from my library into my ipod icon, it will make like they're copying over, but when the ipod is disconnected i find that the songs haven't transferred.
    In short: itunes opens, recognizes my ipod by name, but wont' show the content, and won't allow new content to move to the ipod.
    It has worked before -- in fact, I have 10 gigs of mp3's on the ipod. I just can't get any more on (it's a new 30 gig ipod).
    I appreciate any help you might give!
    Thanks!

    I'm having the same problem! Any solutions?

  • Front Row doesn't see content on iPod

    Is there a way to configure Front Row to play back content that is on a connected iPod? I have videos and music on my iPod, and I would love to be able to play this content with front row.

    I don't know if I am allowed to say this on here...
    There is software available which allows you to copy all of the content from your iPod back onto your computer. The name of the software is eluding me now, but I'm sure I originally found this out on these forums. So do a search and maybe something will show up. It is possible though! (Not through the use of iTunes).
    I would also like to be able to browse iPod content through Front Row. I have all my music on my Mac Pro, and none of my laptop. So if I ever want to use Front Row with my laptop its quite pointless really... would be cool to see this happening!!
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • Flash Pro Doesn't See Ipad - Debugging

    Hi. I have both Flash Pro CS6 and CC. For some reason, under the debug heading the option "on device via USB" is always greyed out, completely unselectable. This is strange because I am able to publish perfectly fine from flash builder. Do I need to do something extra to make flash pro aware that I am connecting an ipad?

    can you see your usb connected device in a file browser?
    have you ticked install application on connected ios device in the air for ios settings panel?
    with flash cc, did you click the refresh device list debug>debug movie>on device via usb?

    If one of your Macs is earlier than 2012 model, you must use Legacy Airdrop for Mac to Mac connections. If you have one newer and one older, on the newer Mac, select the link that says something like, "not finding what you expect." That will put the new Mac into Legacy Airdrop.
    You cannot Airdrop between a "legacy" Mac and iOS.

  • IPhone doesn't see iPad charger

    Hi,
    My iPhone (first generation, purchased January 2008) does not recognize or respond to my iPad 2 charger when I plug it in.
    It's not a cord issue: the iPhone charges fine when I plug the cord into the iPhone charger or into a USB port. It's the same whether I use the cord that came with the iPhone or with the iPad 2 or with an old iPod cord. The iPhone recognizes and charges on the iPhone charger and random USB ports but not on the iPad 2 charger.
    On the other hand, my iPad 2 charges fine when connected to the iPad 2 charger, using any of the above cords. It will also charge via the iPhone adaptor (but not as quickly, of course).
    Any thoughts as to why this might be?
    Thanks!

    Settings - general - resets - reset network settings on your iphone.
    this will force the iphone to "forget" all your previous wifi access points and settings (WPA, WEP keys , etc) and you'll have to reenter them again.

    The the remaining items of the following, you may have to let the battery fully drain.
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
