Apple tv 3 airplay doesn't work properly on Itunes 10.6.1

So me and my dad recently bought the new apple tv and everything works fine except for a few things, he doesn't connect properly with Itunes so I can't use Airplay and Homesharing. Is there a solution for this? I've seen more discussions on the community but haven't discovered a good solution yet.
Another strange thing about airplay is that sometimes it does show up in itunes but you can't connect cause of unkown fault (-150006), sometimes it can't connect but it's trying to for a long time and the connection window just dissapears and you can try again but still nothing is going to change and in very rare occassions it works?
We've tried a lot of things: resetting wi-fi router, resetting and restarting apple tv, turning on and off wi-fi on macbook, restarting itunes or macbook, we've bought an ethernet cable but still that doesn't make any difference, I've turned firewall off but that didn't work either.
My dad went to a local authorised Apple reseller and the only thing they said is that it should work so that didn't help us much.
So what can we do about this?

Also, the solution of using an Ethernet cable is no good for me.  I live in a shared house, the router is in the landlords room.  So I can log into the router and make changes, I have also tried rebooting, and resetting the router.  But can not permanently use an ethernet cable.
Anyway, my friend is using his (unupgraded) apple tv just fine in the next room.
As I mentioned, it was just fine the way the router is now BEFORE the firmware upgrade.  Straight after it connects for a few minutes at most.  And in the last few hours it has refused to connect at all

  • EQ doesn't work properly in iTunes 7.0 or 7.01

    iTunes 7 isn't always swapping the EQ presets when different songs play, but I can't figure out what the pattern is. More often than not, iTunes selects the EQ preset of the song you choose to play, and then keeps that preset for the next song, even if it has a different preset.
    I've noticed that if the EQ is the selected window, it works properly. Also, if you skip through songs on iTunes manually, the EQ seems to change presets properly. However, if you just let iTunes play, the EQ seems to keep the preset of the first song played.
    Please fix this Apple!

    Larry,
    I try also with names:
    1. SAPBEXRefresh
    2. SAPBEXonrefresh
    3. Im_not_here
    The situation is the same. You only must put properly name in Workbook settings
    field "Invoke macro on refresh" (What you put there, that must be name of yours SUB Procedure)
    i.e.
    Sub Im_not_here(queryID As String, resultArea As Range)
    End Sub
    That mean that after you upgrade your system you can also use the same coding... Only check WB properties...
    Gimme my first forum points please....
    Did enybody know solution for my issue (VBA won't run on initial run)

    sounds more like Bluetooth rather than moue, but w/o knowing w/o posting mac model type/year we... will... not... know... what you have
    All computers are personal computers, a PC though is also "non-Apple" in common usage.
    Mac also is platform and OS.
    Very confused reading what you are trying to tell us.

  • HT1923 The sync function on my iPod Touch 3rd generation doesn't work properly.  My OS is up to date, but some of my podcasts won't transfer onto the iPod, and it won't delete ones I've already listened to.

    The sync function on my 3rd gen iPod Touch doesn't work properly.  It won't sync all the podcasts I've downloaded, and it won't delete ones I've listened to and deleted on iTunes.

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 &amp; above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • Site doesn't work properly

    Hi all, I'm PHP programmer, and i have some questions in my area. I have 3 Apple computers (MacBook Air, MacBook and MacBook Pro). There is one site, made by our group, that doesn't work properly on my MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, while other sites work excellent on that 2 computers. And what is more interesting, site, that doesn't work on my MacBook Pro and Air, WORKS on my windows computer, and WORKS on my MacBook. I tried to use this site from different internet provider, but problem was steel actual. I asked 2 of my friends to try this site on their MacBooks Pro - the same (it doesn't work properly, links don't open), but any other computer (under windows, or iPad, or my Macbook) can work with this site excellent. Can anybody help with this? Are there any specifications in program code to MacBook Air work with that site also excellent?

    It's working, after using Cyberduck to FTP.

  • Microsoft Outlook doesn't work properly since I updated to Mavericks?!

    Hello.. so yeah ever since I updated to Mavericks, Outlook from Microsoft Office 2011 doesn's work properly. It won't pop up with a window to either reply, forward or write a new e-mail and it gets annoying because I need it for work. So it's totally useless. I don't want to be deleting and installing MO again because my friend did it for me and I don't know all the registration details to prove it's legit or something and I don't want stuff deleted. Sooo.... can anyone help? I don't know how to get it to work, so frustrating!

    What Apple wants from his customers?
    1) I've paid my iPhone 4S 900 euros;
    2) I'm used to buy music and apps from iTunes store;
    3) my iCloud space costs 32 euros per year
    and, like me, millions of customers around the world!
    and Apple does not allow me (and many others) to use the internet traffic for which I (we) pay my (our) provider, that's not among those that directly sell iPhone??? Is this your idea of a really unblocked device as you falsely declsre from the pages of Apple online store ?!? Shame on you!
    If I had know that the 7.1 led to this I'd never updated my iPhone. No one (Apple and the sites that live because of her) told about this issue in their enthusiastic comments on the new, updated version, of iOS. Shame on you!
    This would claim a class action against such a behaviour!
    I'm disgusted
    thank you

  • HT4623 My iPhone 4S speaker suddently doesn't work properly from one week ago? How I can do? 4s is still under warranty?

    My iPhone 4S speaker suddently doesn't work properly from one week ago? How I can do? 4s is still under warranty?

    Have you tried any troubleshooting steps, like resetting you iPhone, for example?  Or restoring it?
    If not by all means do so because your problem could be caused by software glitches that could be solved resetting or restoring.
    Warranty is for one year from date of purchase and two years if you bought Apple Care at the time of purchase. If your iPhone has a hardware issue within warranty, it would be replaced by Apple.  If it is already out of warranty, you might be eligible for an out of warranty replacement where you pay a much lower amount but this varies according to the country and currency, so it is better to check with Apple or with an authorized reseller.

  • Safari doesn't work properly with Ebay

    Safari doesn't work properly when listing items on Ebay. Fix it.

    Hi Occo
    I would rather Apple updates Safari
    Then tell Apple, this a user to user forum, although I don't think Apple will update just for your problem as hardly anybody is experiencing the same issue, just a couple on this troubleshooting forum.
    this IS NOT A EBAY PROBLEM
    Please don't use all caps, it is considered shouting. No this may well not be an ebay problem, but it is not a Safari issue either, it is an issue on your Safari and on your computer. Everyone I know has no trouble with ebay at all. In fact Safari 4.0.4 has made it even faster to log in and browse, buy etc.
    id rather apple fixed their software
    Again, tell Apple, not us, through the Apple feedback page or file a bug report. They will update Safari if and when they decide, but it will not be to fix what is not broken.
    Im sure there would be similiar sites that arent compatible with safari
    I agree, as stated before that some sites are just lazy in updating their coding, usually not the high traffic sites though. Other sites only update their code for Windows IE and forget the rest of the world. Firefox, Opera, Camino etc. also can't access some sites.
    So in conclusion, try Safari and OSX maintenance and if that fails, then try an archive and install. Because there is nothing wrong with Safari 4.0.4 and ebay, or else this forum would be inundated with thousands upon thousands of users complaining and that is not the case.
    Cheers and Good Luck

  • Sorting albums by year doesn't work properly in new iTunes 11.

    Sorting albums by year doesn't work properly in new iTunes 11.
    See the screenshots below.
    There's a kind of albums. Double CD in one set. Queen "The Works" 1984, for example.
    First CD is the original release and the second one is bonus CD for the original album's reissue in 2011.
    iTunes 10 took year info from track 1 of CD1 for "sort album by year" function.
    But new iTunes 11 takes the highest value of year in the album's track list.
    Same things with additional bonus tracks for the album's reissues.
    See the screenshot of Madonna "Like a Virgin" 1984 album.
    So my collection is in a huge mess after last update to iTunes 11.
    It's a big problem. And must be solved to the next update.

    I noticed this too, and I think it gets even more complicated when you think about the difference between how you want Re-releases to be ordered: based upon the intial release year (like you have described above), and Compilations or Greatest Hits: where you want them to be sorted by when the albums were actually released. iTunes 11 seems to just grab the date of the most recently released song on an album. This worked fine for 2/3 of my Compilation albums, because they just happened to be released the same year as the latest song on each album.
    Compilation example (released: 2003, latest song on album: 1969):
    This is what I submitted to Apple as feedback:
    This issue is actually aimed at  iTunes 11, but 10.6.3 is the most recent version number I could select in the drop-down menu.
    As with normal albums, iTunes 11 puts a release year next to "Various Artists" in Albums > Expanded View (and also in the Songs and Genre Tabs). However, iTunes seems to produce this number by looking for the last released song on the album. This has worked fine for 2/3 of my compilations, but the third one is a 60s compilation released in 2003. It displays "1969" next to "Various Artists" and there are no tags available in Get Info to change this. This also happens to greatest hits collections.
    When selecting View > View Options > "Artist" then "Year" in Album view, and View > View Options > "Year" in Artist and Genre view, the above issue causes compilations, greatest hits collections, and re-releases (Although users may want re-releases to be listed in order of original release) to be sorted in the wrong order.
    Considering iTunes 11 has added this feature (in previous iTunes versions, "Year" would only appear next to individual tracks), it is a shame an "Album Year" or "Sort Album Year" hasn't been added to the Get Info options.
    As is, the only solution I can think of is to change all track years to the release year of the album.
    I imagine this might be a bit of an edge case, and not something the majority of iTunes users would care about, but then again, I could imagine a fair number of musicphiles wanting control over this metadata.
