Apple TV freeze then reboot when flipping through music

Hi,
I have an issue where my Apple TV freezes and then reboots when I flip thorugh the music files. The music is playing and I switch to the next song but it seems that if do this too fast repeatedly the unit feeezes and then reboots. It varies how many times I have to switch the song but approximately 10 times before it happens.
It only started happening after the newest update.

I'm having a similar problem. I stream my music collection from my computer hooked up to an external hard drive. For the last few days, apple tv freezes right after I choose "Shared Music". After some time it reboots ... but now I can't play music AT ALL! I have a very large music library and amusing the newest update too.

    Do you mean the "Slide to Unlock?"
    Assuming your phone isn't jailbroken, do the basic troubleshooting steps as needed (as described in the User Guide, Appendix B):

  • Apple TV freezes on screenlock when streaming Internet TV via iPhone 4. Difference in IOS5 vs IOS6?

    Hello everybody!
    I have an iPhone 4, upgraded to IOS 6.0.1 and a newly bought Apple TV with upgraded software. My iPhone 4 worksperfectly with the Apple TV with one exception: Streaming of Internet TV to Apple TV freezes when the iPhone is Auto-locked. As my iPhone is configured for business use, it is not possible to configure it to disable auto-lock, and as the longest auto-lock time is 5 minutes, watching TV is pretty annoying ....
    The strange thing, however, is that a friend of mine also has an iPhone 4, assumingly with the same business configuration, where the streaming of Internet TV continues (video and sound) also after the iPhone goes into auto-lock. In addition, he strongly claims that streaming Internet TV does not affect the battery consumption of the iPhone at all, indicating that the streaming does not physically goes through the iPhone, but directly from the router of the network to which the iPhone is connected (i.e. the streaming is only initiated by the iPhone, not relayed).
    Does this make any sense to you? Is this an IOS 5 vs. IOS 6 issue? How do I get uninterrupted Internet TV streaming from my iPhone? If relevant, I have a DLink DIR-655 router.
    In advance, thanks for all help.

    OK.  I turned all devices off, including router, then turned everything back on.  I also did a RESET and a RESTORE on my Apple TV, but still have the same problem.  I put my MacBook Pro right next to my Apple TV, and iStumber indicates I have a good wifi signal.  Any suggestions on what to check next?  Thx

  • Exporting pdf shows all the .ai layers when flipping through pages

    I'm building complicated illustrator files with vector and placed images and saving them as .ai files. Then I place then into my indesign file and export
    into a multiple page PDF.
    Unfortunately when I view the PDF, instead of just showing one flat image of the finished file, when I flip through pages it shows every layer until it finally loads. This is a very quick thing, but it is verydistracting when showing clients a pdf and they see every layer loading instead of just the flat file.
    I would prefer not exporting the ai files into a jpeg first then placing into indesign in order the flatten. Is there an easier way?
    Thanks!

    I take it you save as an AI file with the PDF Content enabled. One way would be to save as a PDF with AI editing enabled and use the Acrobat 5 level in the save dialog which doesn't allow layers. This PDF can be placed in ID and still be edited in Illustrator but will not have layers if they are important.

  • ITunes freezes then crash when accessing iTunes store

    I have this problem since a couple of weeks ago.
    When I try to go in the iTunes store, iTunes freezes, then it closes unexpectedly (it takes a couple of minutes to close).
    I don't get an error message but it slows down my computer a lot.
    iTunes version 10.3
    Using iPod Touch & iPhone 4 on it (crashes occur whenever my devices are connected or not)
    Windows XP (up-to-date)
    Videocard NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti (latest driver installed - 275.33)
    Antivirus bundle : Norton 360 Premier Edition (up-to-date)
    I tried searching for an answer, but the only things repeated as a solution is the "videocard driver" and mine is the latest NVIDIA version.
    So I'm lost and, let's say, very unhappy as I cannot search or download anything.
    Any help would be welcome.

    It seems that no one at Apple is willing to start working on this as I haven't had any feedback from them...
    This is disappointing.

  • TS4436 Why does my camera freeze then blur when I switch it to rear?

    My camera hasn't been working for over a year. It is starting to bother me because I cannot use the rear side of my camera. I have gone deeper into this problem and a lot of people have the same problem too. I went to apple a few weeks ago and they told me to reset. It did not change anything. I really want to get this fixed because I take a lot of photos and that's hard to do if your camera doesn't work. My camera freezes then turns blurry when I switch to rear. I want to solve this problem asap. Thank you.

  • Z3 compact freezes and reboots constantly with large music collection on sd card.

    Hi 
    On adding my music collection(72GB) to the sd card via the usb cable, I've run into a pretty serious issue/bug with my z3 compact. This renders the phone useless.   All is well as long as I never reboot/shutdown the phone after adding music. I've successfully used the walkman app for a number of days with the full music colletion present.  Once the phone is shutdown,  on restart it gets hot, battery starts to drain significantly( +- 10% in about 4min) and it then freezes and reboots constantly. I've tried a number of things to attempt to recover.
    removing the sd card, leaving it out and restarting the phone
    removing the music files from the sd card 
    factory reset but keeping the music files on the sd card
    I've used mp3diags to scan my collection for broken files, there were some minor issues with id3 tags which I've corrected but no broken files. 
    None of these actions improved matters, the only solution seems to be to erase data from the sd card and factory reset the phone. Then add the files again. This is quite time consuming and very very frustrating.
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance 

    Have a look at this post....sounds very much like what you are experiencing dont you think

  • Apple tv freezes for milliseconds when I stream a movie.

    Hi all,
    I have bought an streaming package from the internet for some turkish football.
    When I am streaming this from my macbook air to my apple tv 3th generation (also updated to 5.1) it freezes for milliseconds and it keeps going on.
    Downgraden is not an option cause I had the problem there also. If i connect it trough an HDMI cable directly to my tv, it works great.
    Does anyone having the same problem?

    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)
    Restore the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Restore)

  • Apple Pay activated without permission when walking through library security doors.

    I would like to know why Apple Pay activated when I walked through the doors to my local public library. I believe this is being caused by the security system that keeps people from stealing books from the library as well as items from stores. Has anyone else experienced this? Could this be a security risk? I'm curious what Apple will have to say on this matter.

    Hi ..
    This being a user to user forum, it's hard to say whether or not your post will be read by a represenative from Apple. This community is moderated by Apple, that's all.
    But what you can do is provide feedback >  Apple - Apple Pay - Feedback
    Since you were not making a purchase, I doubt there was any security risk involved.

  • 23" Apple Cinema Displays gos black when routed through DVI extenders boxes

    I have an ATI radeon 9650 with two DVI ports. My new set up requires my Mac to be further than the dvi connector's present lenght to my 2 HD cinema displays. I purchased 2 DVI extender boxes. Once connected the Utilities does not show the displays as Cinema HD Displays. And worse yet they both go black and the power light blinks. When I hook up the 23" directly through DVI to the G5 both displays come on. However the one connected through the extender box still shows the wrong display profile.
    I have check and re-checked the cables, extender boxes, my graphic card and all seems to test out properly. I know this because I have another G5 with same specks that I have tested these hardwares on. Finally I thought it was my Bootup drive so I did a full erase and clean reinstall. the monitors worked fine for 10 minutes and then when I clicked on Displays in system pref window they both went black again. I can only conclude that the DVI extender box is somehow changing the signature of the HD Displays and the the system freaks out!
    THE MODEL OF THE DVI extenders are DAS 101,and 101R

    I am at my wits end. I need to get to work before I loose all my clients. PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP!
    PS total lenght of CAT5 DVI extenders from Mac to Display 15ft max

    Naelm G, I just read your first post a little more carefully. Is it true you are only trying to place the Cinema displays 15 feet away from the Mac? That's not very far. If you don't care about also extending the Firewire and USB, then you might be able to get away with a simple 10 foot DVI extension cable like this:
    http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?cid=102&cp_id=10209&cs_id=1020903&pid=2406&seq=1&format=2
    The combinded length of the Cinema's built-in cable plus the 10 foot extension cable will be more than 15 feet. This would be the cheapest way to go by far.
    Or if you want to extend the Firewire and USB along with the the video, then Gefen makes an extender that will do that:

  • Frequent hard freezes and reboots when gaming.

    I've been having some problems with freezing in World of Warcraft in recent months, but it seems to have gotten a lot more frequent in the past couple of days. It also affects the Star Wars:Empire at War game that I just acquired as a gift. In both cases, it's usually a freeze of the game, with only the mouse moving, and game music continuing to play for a while, but there's no way out except for the power button(if I leave iTunes running in the background, it still plays). Sometimes, the screen goes totally blank and the sound stutters. Also sometimes, there's video tearing problems, with long lines and triangles poking out of things, but that seems to be unrelated to whether or not it freezes. (I can clear up the visual problems in WoW by putting it in a window, then back, but only temporarily)
    2 days ago, we updated from 10.4.10 to 10.4.11, and now I can't seem to use WoW at all; it just freezes up too fast to even say anything to people in game.
    Any suggestions? The freezes are usually only in games, but only games stress the system that much. I've also started seeing the occasional problem when web browsing, but very rarely.
    We thought it might be a memory problem at one time, but we're up to 2GB now, 2 1 GB modules. I'm not certain if this machine uses main memory for video memory.

    If you do not have the AHT disk than you can always take out the third party RAM for testing purposes. If you are looking at a re-install of the system anyway then you might as well upgrade to Leopard. If you do purchase Leopard, when you boot up to the install dvd, before you run the installer, open up Disk Utility from the Utilities menu at the top and Repair the Disk. If it fails to repair do not try and update the system until you have fixed it. You will either need to get a third party utility like Disk Warrior to repair it or you will need to reformat the drive before installing the system. If it passes Repair Disk then first try an Archive Install of the system. When you get to the point where you choose the drive to install the system, before you install click on the options button. Then select Archive Install and preserve User and Network data. Keep in mind if you end up erasing and reformatting the drive you will loose all of your data that was on the drive.

  • Suddenly, system produces a "microsoft image writer," freezes, then crashes when I try to print from a web page. This is new, just past week or so.

    For the past week or two, when I desire to print from a web page or email and hit the "print" command, instead of my printer name the printer window displays 'microsoft document image writer." Then it asks me to save (in which case it appears in my documents) or print to file. Then, if it works, it produces a window with an image of the page. And once or twice, I can then print. But usually, it produces a blank screen, an endless hourglass, a "not responding" message, and then the blue screen of death.

  • Safari regularly freezes then quits when streaming Netflix

    With great regularity, when I stream a Netflix movie using Safari, in full screen mode, I'll get pauses of a few seconds after 45 minutes or so. The pauses get more severe (longer, like 5 seconds) until Safari quits. Then I restart it and watch the rest of the movie OK.

  • Lumia 800 reboots when listening to music while th...

    I am noticing this after applying the latest update.
    If the phone is being charged, and at the same time music is being played (using the headset), the Lumia 800 seems to reboot after about every 10-15 minutes. Can confirm and reproduce this on my phone. Is this generally an issue, or only a problem with my handset?

    Hi,
    I have read some post in Microsoft Answers on this issue. Seems like problem occurs when you play songs using Smart DJ mix with incomplete metadata(album artworks, bios..etc).
    If songs in your collection cannot be recognized to by Zune Marketplace it forces the phone to reboot. I can give workarounds:
    * Before syncing/adding music to your phone download all the metadata and exclude those who lacks.
    * On your phone don't connect to zune if listening to those music not recognized by Zune Marketplace. That is going to phone Settings>Applications>music+videos toggle Connect to Zune to Off.
    I am really disappointed on my Lumia 800, now I am working for my moneyback.
    It appears that NokiaMS still not finished with WPBeta.
    Nokia I didn't sign-up as a Beta tester. I am no guinea pig.

  • Ipad 4 Retina display keeps freezing and reboots

    the past week my Ipad 4 has been having problems with freezing and rebooting. I deleted a game app which I thought was the problem and now when I use my email app it will start to freeze then reboot. Of course my warranty has just run out when this happened. I have tried the stadard things up to resetting but not a complete restore yet. Sometimes when rebooting it will hang and I get pixilation etc. This is very frustrating any ideas? IOS 7.04. 32GB.

    Did the standard things include Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings? You could have a corrupt setting that is causing problems. You won't lose any data, but it takes some time to enter all of the device settings again and you will have to do that if you reset all settings.
    If that doesn't work, then you probably should backup, restore to factory settings and them restore from the backup. If that fails, then the next step is to restore as new and not from the backup, them rebuild the iPad by adding your apps and content methodically looking for any signs of further problems.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
