Apple TV (3rd gen) won't turn on...please help

My Apple TV (3rd gen) won't connect to my TV. It blinks 3 times, so i tried to reset it, but nothing happened. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem. Thanks.

Can someone please help me? My apple tv (3rd gen) continues to blink 3 times and won't respond. I've tried doing different things that I've read through the manuel & forms: (1) holding down menu and FF for 6 seconds to pair the remote (2) unplugging the apple tv and waiting 30 seconds
After apple tv was unplugged, it looked fine when it turned back on...but, once again the same problem remains and my apple tv remote will not work.
Hopefully, someone can help me solve this problem.
Thanks.

    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 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.

  • Apple TV 3rd Gen - Won't use iTunes Movie Start Time

    I've went into the info options under a movie in my iTunes library, and changed the start time. But when playing back on my Apple TV from the beginning, it does not start at that time? Is this functionality not transferred to the Apple TV? I have a 3rd gen, and I would like to know a way I can either chop the beginning to this film off without re-encoding, or if there is a way my Apple TV will recognize my start position set up for specific iTunes movies..?

    AFAIK? is that iTunes conversion? I tried earlier to create an Apple TV format video from the video source in iTunes and had a set in point, it did not clip the beginning...
    I do know that if you do this same process with audio it will clip the beginning, I do this for ringtones... If anyone finds a solution besides having to re-export, would be great!
    I love my Apple TV I just wish it all worked more fluidly, has some glitches here and there and these things should go both ways..

  • Ipod Touch 3rd gen 8gb Wont turn On! help

    hi guys, I Have a Ipod touch 3rd Gen and A 4th gen. I Was using my 3rd gen  and i put it down and Came back and it Wouldnt turn on. I Assumed the battery was dead so i plugged it into my charger. Nothing Happened. I Plugged it into my Computer and Nothing Happened. Please Help

    Your iPod is actually a 2G iPod Touch.  There was never an 8 GB 3G iPod Touch.  As for your issue of it now turning on or responding, see this Apple support document.

  • My Ipod Touch (4th gen) Won't turn on. Help!

    Okay, so I did that thing everyone said to do. I connected it to Itunes, held the Power and Home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds. But it won't work!!!!! And, my Ipod won't show up on my computer... at all! I think it might be the battery, but I'm not sure.
    Help, anyone? Please? This has been going on for months. I even bought a new cord, and it worked for about a week but now it is just dead. It won't turn on or anything.. and it's not the cord. The cord still works to charge other Ipods.
    HELP??
    I miss my Ipod :[

    Charge it overnight with a known good charger.  USB ports are notoriously bad.  Hopefully you have an Apple wall-mount charger.
    If that does not resolve the situation, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • MacBook Air won't turn on :( please help me !

    A few weeks ago I dropped my Macbook air on tiles (not from a very high distance at all) and the next day when I turned it on it worked fine. Then after a few days it randomly shut down twice so I shut it down for a few hours and after that it worked fine again. Then the next day it shut down randomly again so I asked my bf to help and I think he downloaded a software or something on it without telling me because I always tell him not to download anything. when I tried turnin it on again it made a noise like a big fan (I'm not sure if this was before or after my be touched it) and now it won't turn on at all   the charger still works because the light is green when I plug it in. I also noticed that there is a crack on the bottom which may have been from dropping It. Im going away this afternoon and won't be able to take it to an Apple store until I get back but if anyone can please tell me what might be wrong  with it and if it's hard to fix/ expensive to fix or fixable at all can you please let me know ! I will appreciate it so much !!

    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

  • My MacBook Pro shutdown after it said my USB was draining to much power and now won't turn on please help

    Hi my MacBook will not turn on after it said my USB was draining to much power, and it shut down and now won't turn back on please help

    USB power management is part of the SMC (system management controller).  Try to reset SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Then get a self-powered USB external hub.  It takes power from a wall socket and saves the MBP power system.  Starting at $20 at BestBuy and similar stores.

  • TS3274 My iPad mini won't turn on please help

    Please help

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • My iPod Touch won't turn on, PLEASE HELP ME!

    Well, my iPod Touch 2G won't turn on, after I tried restoring the firmware, iTunes automatically closed during the restore.
    After that, my iPod doesn't turn on, doesn't go into DFU mode, not in recovery mode. What do I do?
    Sorry for the poor English.

    Try the basic troubleshooting steps.
    Also, try downloading RecBoot and see if that will kick it back in recovery mode,

  • My i phone is switching between white screen with logo to blue won't turn on please help !!!

    I updated my i Phone 5 a week or so ago, my screen was sticking on certain apps or just closing them unexpected. So i decided to give it a breather when i went to the gym, now it switches between the white screen & blue screen but wont turn back on. I have recently moved to spain from the uk & have no access to an Apple store close to me. I am devastated as i have paid for it to be factory unlocked & now i have no phone, I restored the phone already but no change. Can somebody please help me.
    Seb

    well if you've droped it before you've probably damaged the hardware. The only thing we can tell you is that you need to take it to apple and let them look at it.
