APPLE TV 2nd GENERATION WON'T WORK IN BRAZIL

I just bought the new version of AppleTV. I have the old one as well and it
works flawless.
But this new version is not working as fine as the salesman told me at Apple
Store Miami Beach (Lincoln Road).
I bought this one so I could watch Apple TV at my folks place in Brazil.
Since I live in the US, I logged in my iTunes Store as soon as I got to
Brazil to visit them. The thing is, I can access the option to rent a movie,
but whenever I try to rent it, there's a message saying that there's a
problem with iTUnes Store and asks me to try again later. The salesman
guaranteed me that the AppleTV would work in Brazil with my US Account (but
I could only rent movies). What should I do ? Is it really a problem with
iTunes Store or all that proxy thing (that I was told it would not happen).

I would guess this is a restriction of your internet service in the UAE - A lot of middle eastern countries are restricted. Get yourself a router that support VPN, purchase a subscription to StrongVPN and then you will appear to be in the UK.
Hope that helps

I set up a new airport time capsule. Most devices work fine however now my apple tv 2nd gen won't work.

I set up a new airport time capsule. Most devices connected fine however now my apple tv 2nd gen won't work. I turn it on and it searches for time and date but goes no further. I can't by pass it either. Any suggestions?

I can't by pass it either. Any suggestions?
Does that mean you cannot move it to the TC and plug in by ethernet? What does bypass mean?
I would still move it closer to the TC.. and just trial it there. Range on some AC models for 2.4ghz is worse than old one. For some people.
Another thing to try is fixed wireless channels.. one of the very few options still available in the AC model.. lock the 2.4ghz to 11, 6, 1 .. try it in that order.

Apple TV (2nd generation) won't play my rented movies?

I have a apple tv (2nd generation) that I bought in the UK last October. Whe in the UK it was working perfectly but now that I have taken it back to the UAE to use, I cannot play any of my rented movies. I am able to rent the movie using my UK account but when I try to play it, the movie doesnt load and takes me back to the homepage. Very frustrating! Can anybody please help. Apple support have confirmed that my location is not an issue so I am stuck for suggestions

IPod Shuffle, 2nd generation won't work with Windows 8

My Windows 8 operating system does not recognize my 2nd generation iPod Shuffle in My Computer. My iTunes does not list a device, and my new songs won't sync. I see a lot of posts relatng to problems with the 2nd generation shuffle and new software. My problem may be Windows 8. Any ideas?

i have a ipod 2nd generation and haven't used it for 3 months or more. and now that I try to turn it on, it won't turn on. I have tried charging it for 2 hours and still the screen stays black. need help. what do I do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 another cable
- 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.

Can I use my imac remote for Apple tv 2nd generation

Apple tv 2nd generation is not working. HAve tried all the resets and a new battery but to no avail. Just wondered if I can use my remote from my iMac as a replacment.

Yes, Any apple remote should work.

My Ipod touch 2nd generation won't turn on.

My Ipod touch 2nd generation won't turn on, except when I plug it in. When it's plugged in, it works fine, but when I unplug it, the screen turns black. The secont i plug it in again, it shows the apple logo as if i shut it down. When unplugged, it is unresponsive, i've tried everything with the home button and power button, doesn't move, it's just black. I've reset the Ipod, I know it is not a software issue. Sometimes it works, but as soon as i push the sleep button it doesn't turn back on till plugged back in. The battery's bad, but it can still last up to 30 minutes. I don't think it's worth buying a new battery, may as well buy an Ipod 5. (pretty cool)

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

Macbook pro Retina not recognizing my Apple TV 2nd generation

My new MBR Retina won't recognize ma apple Tv 2nd generation. The airplay mirroring is working through itunes music and videos.

I have the exact same problem. I can send to speakers and I can send videos to my apple tv2 (YES!!!!! LATEST EVERYTHING!!! SHEESH) It's a retina macbook pro.
OSX 10.7.4 (tried update got "Up to date."
Apple TV2 = Model= MC572LL/A
iOS for AppleTV2 = 5.0.2
Tried to update apple tv "Your software is up to date"
SO!!!!!!!!!!
someone please tell me something other than "Are you up to date?"
I am ready to use my fists at this point...
I tried going to sys set>displays and NOTHING
I tried going to "taskbar" and there's no airplay icon.
Again, I CAN airplay through itunes but I CANNOT do full system mirroring...

STILL NO DAMNED ICON!!!!
I want my $3,000 back!!!!!!!

Itunes crashes on addition of artwork to movie folder and apple tv (2nd generation) will not see itunes while itunes plays playlist over wireless network to airport express??

I have 4 non apple pc exhibiting same issue. Whether you have ten movies on board the pc or 500 on external storage Itunes locks up after you "get info" and try to add video cover from IMDB whether the art is in my pictures on PC or off USB key / external storage. Very frustrating to the extent that I bought a macbook thinking that it may be a non apple issue and bingo same issue whether films on macbook or on nas/ external usb. Effectively itunes may be made to crash by adding artwork!
2nd Issue noticed at weekend I have a small music library of approx. 35gb music in itunes music folder when a playlist was being played within itunes and airplay was selected to an airport express that is connected to distributed music system in house all works well during party. Guest have access to DJ app via remote app or control of content being player. My kids disappeared into the front room and while playlist on notices 2 things. The ipod touch ( 4 mths old) would not connect to apple tv player 2nd generation while airplay on to music system and the infra red remote remote worked fine but apple tv would not see video files in itunes while airplay on. When airplay disabled all absolutley fine , re- enabled airplay and apple tv bumped again. I have a wireless N router and have successfully had 2 apple tv 2nd generation working off itunes video files without issue. There are delays but both are seen in remote app and both players see itunes folders. I would have thought video streaming to apple tv players sucked up more bandwidth that one airplay to airport express and one apple tv 2nd gen.
Anyone experienced same

OK - I managed to fix this. Will document for others.
I started to think it was a firewall thing. So I turned off both my Windows 7 firewall and my BT Home hub firewall. It started working!
So turned back on the BT home hub firewall - still working. So it must be a windows 7 firewall.
Went in and checked that Itunes was there as an exception... Yep. So why still not working?
Found out that the entry in my Windows 7 firewall said I-Tunes - but when you looked at the details button it wasnt pointing to a program - it was just blank.
So added a new entry and pointed that at the I-Tunes exe file.
Now all working...

Apple TV 2nd generation purchases not showing in iTunes

I just got the Apple TV 2nd generation for Christmas. I just last week purchased on the Apple TV the old movie Footloose and the new movie Footloose. I can see them and play them all I want on the apple tv but they don't appear in iTunes on my computer (either in movies or in purchased on apple tv).
On the apple tv they don't appear in my library but when i go into movies and search purchased, they appear there and there is a little cloud next to it.
I can see my itunes movie library on the apple tv.
My apple tv is connected to my computer and the apple id for both my apple tv and computer is the same.
Why is this happening? Shouldn't I be able to see my purchases on my apple tv in itunes so that I can download the movie to itunes and put on my ipad or iphone for viwing?

Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes. Then, try going to the menu item "store" (i think that's it, not at my computer) and "check for available downloads." If that works great, if not, go to the iTunes Store within iTunes, look on the right for the new Purchased section. You should be able to download your media from there. After the download(s) complete they will be seen in iTunes and Apple TV via the Computer > Movies sections.

Can I use apple tv 2nd generation in the philippines?

I bought an apple tv 2nd generation in US and I'w like to know if it will work in the Philippines. My apple ID is also from Philippines.
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes the Apple TV will work in the Philippines although you may need to change the power cord or plug.
Unfortunately the Philippines store doesn't have movies or TV shows, so you couldn't use those particular features with your account.

Nano (2nd generation) won't recognize toggle switch

My iPod Nano (2nd generation) won't recognize the toggle switch. I've done ALL of the suggested remedies...reboot...restore factory settings...reboot plugged into a power source....nothing works.
iTunes recognizes the Nano (thus I was able to restore factory settings) and I'm able to manipulate all of the settings while in iTunes, but the Nano doesn't seem to recognize the toggle switch. I after rebooting, I can get to the first screen asking which language, but the lock icon is showing that it's in the locked position no matter how much I toggle it on and off. Since the toggle is always in the locked position, the only thing I can do with the scroll wheel is reboot.
I have no idea what to try next.
Help?

Sorry I could not have brought better news. I still have an 80 GB iPod Video that I feel the same about!

If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.
