Apple TV content no longer working

As of this morning, all of our Apple TV's stopped loading content from certain providers (some news apps, e.g. Bloomberg, Sky News).
The devices are correctly configured on the network, and have network and internet access (we have seen the traffic passing through our router), but simply will not load the content. We get the classic "An error occured loading this content" message all the time.
I've restarted, rebooted, and everything that I could possibly think of, and still it won't work.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for the quick responses.
I have pinged with speedtest several times when the download gets hung up. The results for my lowest result so far are download: 4.96 Mbps and upload 5.25 mbps
I Have not checked signal strength and noise, I will look into that in a little bit.
THis is problem has developed in the last few days. I have never experienced a problem before.
I Have not experienced the same issue with movies I have purchased as I have with movies I have rented.
thanks again for any assistance you can provide

Apple USB modem no longer works with Mountain Lion

Now that I've upgraded my iMac to Mountain Lion my Apple USB modem no longer works. Does anyone know of a software fix or have I just lost my faxing ability with this item and have to buy something else?

That's a very sad situation as the Official statement link above (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3152) states that the modem cannot be used with any Windows. So Apple thinks that people investing in the ability to Fax and relying in Apple's good product only deserves to throw out their modems (because now it is useless on any platform)...

APPLE DOCKING STATION NO LONGER WORKS WITH TOUCH 3G and 4G after ios 4.2.1

APPLE DOCKING STATION NO LONGER WORKS WITH TOUCH 3G and 4G after ios 4.2.1 update.
I have both of these touches. I updated both 3g and 4g to ios 4.2.1 and poof...no docking station support other than charging, no audio and no remote function. My av/cable works with the tv, and the headphone jack still outputs audio, just no auido through the Apple dock and hte remote is dead. I purchased the dock from the apple store last year and it was working with both ipod 3g and 4g grrrrr...
Is Apple now in the bug trade business?, trade one for another....
Anyone else have this problem?

My iPod Touch 3G running 4.2.1 works fine with the Apple docking station.
Perhaps you have a loose cable somewhere and/or a dead battery in your controller?

Existing Apple ID is not longer working with Face Time and Message on the iPhone after iOS 6

After the IOS 6 update on my iPhone the Apple ID is not longer working with Face Time and Message. Each time I try to log in I receive the message that the password or the user is not right. But they are, because on all other devices and all other parts of the iPhone (iCloud, AppStore, iTunes) they are working. Other Apple IDs are working fine.
What's wrong? Any idea?
Thanks

It sounds like you restored from an old back-up. Did you back-up just before your software update? It will use your last one and if your last back-up was a ywear old then it will use that one.
In general, if you are getting these messages on your iPhones select logout (when you get that Apple Id request) and then log back in with your newer ID.
Sorry for your losses.
Cheers

I recently installed Maverick as my OS. My external Apple Fax modem no longer works. I receive the message that the fax is offline. I repaired permissions, but still I have lost my fax capability. What needs to be done?

I recently updated to Maverick. My external Apple Fax Modem no longer works. I receive a message that it is not connected. What needs to be done. I have repaired permissions, and found no error.

Chances are it is a software-based modem. Update the drivers of the device to Mavericks-compatible driver from the vendor.

Apple TV remote no longer working, unpairing is giving me resolution screen, lost Remote app control as well.

I've been trying to sort this out for a while; somehow my Apple TV is no longer homesharing with the rest of my network. I had hoped to use my apple TV remote to re-activate the Remote Apps I have on my iPod, but the remote isn't responding. I've tried unpairing, but if I press menu-rewind for six seconds, it sends me to the resolution screen instead, and the white light flashes repeatedly - I can't get the remote to accept the resolution settings, or get the cursor to even so much as move. Extremely frustrating as I've been unable to make this work for a week and I don't drive (I'm disabled and housebound) so just popping into a shop somewhere to get it fixed is a slim-to-none chance of possibility.
I really hope there's a better solution!

all apple remotes work out of the box
borrow the remote from the neighbors kid Eric that he got with his appletv or imac or macbook or the likes it works
or buy a new remote it works
borrow Erics remote and use it to setup remote app on an ios device that works too

Finder's 'Search Contents' no longer working

I used to be able to use this to search for keywords in text files. Not the file-name, but the actual contents within the text file. It's no longer working. I'm wondering if perhaps FileVault is the problem? Can anyone else cross-verify this, or suggest possible solutions?

OS Lucinity wrote:
Also, .as files are actionscript docs.
Unfortunately extensions alone are not always unique file type identifiers, especially short ones that may have had origins in the "dot plus three" restrictions of DOS. OS X uses multiple criteria to make a 'best guess' at the file type, including filename extensions, Finder info, & even OS 9 style type & creator codes if present. It compares this info to type identifiers in application bundles registered with launch services (which determines which if any apps appear in the "Open with" Finder contextual menu popup & the choices in the "Get Info" window).
Thus, what Finder shows for "Kind" can vary depending on the applications installed & the metadata associated with the file at the time of creation or re-saving it.
Also, some apps include mdimporters in their bundles or installers. It may be that the mdimporter of the 'parent' app of the actionscript docs (if included) isn't playing well with the latest Leopard update, or that the file type isn't being recognized by launch services properly. (This is a simplification of a complex topic that frankly I do not completely understand as well as I would like.)
Anyway, it may be that an update to the app, reinstalling it, or rebuilding the launch services database may cause the contents of these files to be indexed again without need of a third party importer. Or, the third party importer may be a simpler or more effective solution for you.
I wish I could be more definite about this, but perhaps someone else with a better grasp of the topic can suggest the best way to go.

Apple TV / Homeshare no longer working

I've got a 2nd generation Apple TV which has been working perfectly well for nearly a year. It's got the 5.1.1. update. iTunes has the 11.0 update and is on an iMac running OS X 10.7.5
Since yesterday, whenever I go to the Computer menu, Apple TV keeps telling me that I need to switch Homeshare on in iTunes and won't progress beyond that. However Homeshare IS turned on in both iTunes and Apple TV. I cannot see my libraries for music/tv/film at all and it also says it cannot find my photostream.
I have all the latest software updates. I've tried switching homeshare off and back on again in both iTunes and Apple TV. I've tried rebooting both the Apple TV and my iMac and also rebooted my router for good measure. Nothing has worked.
The only thing I can think of that has changed between Apple TV working perfectly and now not working at all is the upgrade of iTunes to 11.0 and looking over on the iTunes board there seems to be one **** of a lot of issues with homeshare.
Where's Apple to comment on/fix this? As it stands, my Apple TV is an ususable chunk of plastic.

Thanks for the quick responses.

Apple Start page no longer works with Safari 1.3.2?

I just set up an iBook G3 with Mac OS X 10.3.9, with all updates, and opened Safari, which is set to got to the Apple Start page initially:
http://www.apple.com/startpage
Safari loads the page, but two areas are blank: the "Hot News Headlines" in the middle of the page, and the "iTunes Movie Trailers" on the left side. No content appears in these areas. If I click on the "All" next to "Hot News Headlines" a page of html-code text appears.
When I load this page in Firefox or Camino, these areas have the expected content: text in "Hot News Headlines" and a picture in "iTunes Movie Trailers".
I know Safari 1.3.2 is pretty old now, and cannot be upgraded to anything later, since it's integrated with 10.3.9; for this reason I recommend using a more current browser such as Camino or Firefox with this System. But I was just wondering: has anyone else seen this behavior? Is Apple's own web page now too much for Safari 1.x to handle?

Hi HandyMac,
Yes, Safari v1.3.2 is quite dated by today's standards. And yes, the Apple StartPage doesn't work for me either 100% on Safari v1.3.2.
Most Panther users have migrated to Camino. FireFox 2 is no longer updated for Panther either.
On Panther I use Opera and SeaMonkey.

Prestage content no longer working after SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 update

I run SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 on a Windows 2008 R2 server.
I upgraded to CU1 in June, and today is the first time I've attempted to pre-stage a package since then. After pre-staging my package and getting the content out to the target DP, I went to properties of the DP, checked the box "Enable this
distribution point for prestage content", then hit Ok.
Next I went to distribute the content to the DP, however after going thru the wizard, nothing changes. There is no pending status, waiting on prestage content, that I had seen in the past when doing this task. I can go in and run the wizard
again, and the target DP shows up in the list, like I'd never initiated the push before.
Normal (non-prestaged) distributions work fine.
In troubleshooting this, I also noticed that I looking at the site status of the target DP, there are no status message entries for since I upgraded to CU1 (for that matter, none of my DP's have any entries since CU1). I did see a similar issue like
this in the forums
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/9491c2b1-37e6-46e3-9bb0-c5d673490d8a/component-status-not-updating-since-upgrade-from-sccm2012-sp1-cu3-to-sccm2012-r2?forum=configmanagergeneral but I don't have a backed up stat.mgr\retry inbox, it's empty.
I think this is related to why I can no longer prestage content, but I can't seem to find a reason for it. The fixes for R2 CU2 don't mention my issue here either
Anyone else seeing this?

Updated to Lion and now iTunes and Apple TV 2 no longer work

I "upgraded" to Lion today and now iTunes won't work and neither will my Apple TV 2. I click on media in iTunes and nothing happens. More than that, though, there's something strange going on with the metadata because movie posters are vanishing and reappearing. At the Apple TV end I get a lot of "Error Occurred Loading This Content" messages, but when it does actually decide to play a file only a couple of seconds of it load and then it freezes up.
This has been great. Upgrade the OS and now I can't listen to music or watch movies anymore.
I reinstalled iTunes, but nothing changed. I rebooted my router and nada. It woulda been cool if someone had actually tested this OS before it was sent out to disable Macs everywhere...
-Rob

I believe there's some kind of sleep problem with my RAID array going on here. I had to switch the RAID array to the Firewire connection because Lion didn't like my eSata card. Now accessing media on the RAID array seems to be something that takes time to "wake up" the array, though I don't have any sleep modes enabled.

Apple TV rentals no longer working

I have a 3rd gen Apple TV which has worked flawlessly for all apps, movie rentals and purchases up until a few days ago. Now when you rent a movie there is perpetual spinning during the "loading" screen. It typically I goes on to say "ready to play in 1 minute." it will say this for an indefinite period of time. if I do get the movie to start playing it will typically pause to load for extended periods of time as well while I am watching.
Some notes:
this is only happens with rentals, I can play movies on Netflix, Hulu and any other apps.
My network is fine, everything pings with appropriate speeds and everything else works perfectly
i have reset my apple tv
i I have restored my Apple TV
does anyone have any suggestions?

Apple wireless keyboard no longer working with boot camp Windows 7

Hi,
I've had Boot Camp installed for about half a year now with no problems.
Yesterday my wireless keyboard stopped working with it, it also appears that bluetooth isn't in the device manager or in the control panel, it could no linger detect either my magic mouse or keyboard despite having fresh new batteries. They do however still work with my Mac OSX partition. It also lets me hold down alt to choose which OS to boot into on startup however when it gets to the log in screen for windows the keyboard stopped working.
I've tried unpairing them in OSX then trying it in Windows but like I said bluethooth doesnt even appear to be there and it wont detect them. I've also tried reinstalling the apple drivers twice, still doesn't work.
If it helps I have a early 2011 iMac 21.5inch and it's Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
Thanks,
Dan

This may be just a Boot Camp issue, if no one here can help you may also want to post in the Boot Camp forum.

Using windows XP. After replacing a bad keyboard apple special keys no longer work with Boot Camp 3.2

My Original keyboard (MB110LL/A) was damaged. I recieved a new keyboard (MB110LL/B) from the Apple Store online. Now none of the special Apple keys, volume up, volume down, eject, etc. work anymore. I have Boot Camp 3.3 installed on Windows XP. Boot Camp 3.3 requires Windows 7. I cannot get a replacement (MB110LL/A) keyboard anywhere.

Adding to the above: I also tried plugging in an Microsoft USB keyboard at the point when Windows freezes at the Windows log-in screen. The keyboard is not recognized and the only way I can leave this screen is to power-off the computer.

My Apple ID is no longer working, what is the cause and solution to getting it back?

A few days ago, my Apple ID stopped working. over the last week, i have been trying to recover thru the normal website process. There are two options on the website - have a temp password sent to your email OR answer a security question in my case BIRTHDATE. When requesting they send a temp password, the procuess would seem to complete, but I never got an email (not in 'junk' folder either). When entering the answer to the secret question, that did not work either.
We have been trying many different tactics and nothing has worked...until today.
We decided to try establishing a new Apple ID. AND we used the same ID. It accepted it! We are now facing issues with finishing the set up of the account thru iStore, we are hung up on the credit card entry (we are living overseas, but entering with valid US credit cards).
Not so concerned about the latter issue. I am worried that we were able to re-establish an Apple ID using the original. The system is treating it as if it never existed.
I've gone thru the community support site, and it seems like others have had similar issues, but in the threads I've read, there never seems to be a resolution to the issue.
Help!

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know some details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what fixes have you tried?
where is you library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?
