Apple TV, HD TV and Bose 18 System

I recently upgraded to the 2nd gen. Apple TV and have connected the HDMI cable from the Apple TV to the HDMI plug on the HDTV. The picture and sound are fine between the TV and AppleTV with this connection.
Whats the problem then?
Well, I want the sound to be coming from my Bose 18 system, not through the TV (like the first generation Apple TV). I have connected an optical cable from the Apple TV to the Bose system, however cannot seem to get the sound coming through the Bose system.
Do I need different cabling for this?
Hope someone out there has a similar issue.
Thanks

Naish,
Check in the Bose settings. It has a setting to associate the Optical input with one of the video input ports. I found that the default was OFF. Just turn it on and associate with AUX or some other port.
Regards,

  • I cannot pick up any Bluetooth divides on my ipad3 I have tried my ipohone4s and Bose music system and it won't recognise either?.

    Many thanks lllaass,
    The Touch Copy third party software for PC's is the way to go it seems and although the demo is free, if you have over 100 songs then it costs £15 to buy the software which seems not a lot to pay for peace of mind. and restoring your iTunes library back to how it was.

  • How to connect Apple TV to projector and home theater system?

    I have an Optoma HD20 projector that I have a long hdmi cable connected to and plugged that into my Apple TV. I also have an older home theater system that does not have an optical audio input. So I bought an adapter to go from optical audio to RCA cables. When I get it all plugged in and turned on I can't even get the video on my screen. What am I missing?
    This is the adapter...

    Darn. Ok. Then do you have any suggestions for other options to connect the two? My projector is mounted to the middle of the ceiling with a whole for the wires that go along inside the ceiling to the other side of the room.

  • How do I set upmy Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time.  I can use one or the other, but not both.

    how do I set up my Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time.  I can use one or the other, but not both.  From systems Preferences I must select one or the other.  I want both to work all the time.

    Hi,
    I would recommend you to use 0FI_AP_4 rather using both, particularly for many reasons -
    1. DS: 0FI_AP_4  replaces DataSource 0FI_AP_3 and still uses the same extraction structure. For more details refer to the OSS note 410797.
    2. You can run the 0FI_AP_4 independent of any other FI datasources like 0FI_AR_4 and 0FI_GL_4 or even 0FI_GL_14. For more details refer to the OSS note: 551044.
    3. Map the 0FI_AP_4 to DSO: 0FIAP_O03 (or create a Z one as per your requirement).
    4. Load the same to a InfoCube (0FIAP_C03).
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Have you tried closing all apps via the iPad's multitasking bar and then doing a soft-reset and seeing that helps ? To close all apps :
    iOS 7: double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag each app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
    iOS 6 and below : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • We got a new Apple TV for Christmas and it works wonderful. However, my question is this. We are on a satelitte internet system and our bandwidth is limited. Can anyone tell me what effect it will have on using up my 10 megs of bandwidth?

    We got a new Apple TV for Christmas and it works wonderful. However, my question is this. We are on a satelitte internet system and our bandwidth is limited. Can anyone tell me what effect it will have on using up my 10 megs of bandwidth? If I run over the 10 mgs, the service either slows way down until it is reset on the first of the next month or I have to purchase additional bandwidth and it can get expensive.
    Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    If you only have a 10MB limit on the Internet connection you might as well not have Internet access and certainly should not attempt to stream anything.
    If the limit is 10GB, then you will need to be careful with streaming as most video is 1-3GB for a one hour show.

  • HT5517 I want to photo stream pix from my iMac to apple tv. When I try to enter the iCloud account name and password, the systems tells me that terms of service have changed and won't let me proceed. What's that about.

    I want to photo stream pix from my iMac to apple tv. When I try to enter the iCloud account name and password, the systems tells me that terms of service have changed and won't let me proceed. What's that about?

    You need to reset the password for the "old" account, and then use that to turn off iCloud.  Then you will be able to sign in with your new ID.
    You can reset your password at iForgot.apple.com.
    If you don't know the answers to the security questions, you will need to start there.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    -If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com.  Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE:  This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
    -If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address.  Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security.  You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

    Hi jaredfox06,
    If I understand the issue correctly, you have recently purchased a used iPhone and you do not see your Apple TV in the control center in order to AirPlay.  To troubleshoot this issue please follow the steps outlined below.
    Try these steps first
    Make sure that you have the latest software on your iOS device and Apple TV.
    Make sure that both devices have Wi-Fi turned on.
    On your iOS device, go to Settings > Wi-Fi.
    On your Apple TV, go to Settings > General > Network.
    If you're trying to use peer-to-peer AirPlay, make sure that both devices have Bluetooth turned on.
    On your iOS device, go to Settings > Bluetooth.
    On your Apple TV, go to Settings > General > Bluetooth.
         If you don't see AirPlay in Control Center
    When an AirPlay-enabled device is available, you'll see AirPlay in Control Center on your iOS device.
    If you don't, try these steps:
    Restart your iOS device and Apple TV.
    Connect both devices to the same Wi-Fi network.
    On your iOS device, go to Settings > Wi-Fi.
    On your Apple TV, go to Settings > General > Network. If your Apple TV is connected using Ethernet, make sure that it’s plugged in to the router you're using for Wi-Fi.
    On your Apple TV, make sure that AirPlay is turned on. Go to Settings > AirPlay.

    Have a good one,

  • I have an ATV 1 which is connected to my Bose Lifestyle System.  I just expanded the system and connected a second AMP for the expansion.  Can I connect the ATV 1 to the aux jacks (RCA Cables) of the expansion amp?  Thanks

    I have an ATV 1 which is connected to my Bose Lifestyle System.  I just expanded the system outdoors using a second Bose System Amp.  Does anyone know if I'm able to connect my ATV 1 to the Bose expansion module in addition to keeping it connected to my main Lifestyle System using RCA cables?  The new amp has RCA input jacks for auxiliary inputs.  Thank you.

  • IPhone 3GS and Nissan 2010 Bose Sound System Issue

    I have a 2010 Nissan Altima Coupe with a Bose sound system and iPod intergration. Until recently everything worked well with my iPhone 3G S, however now on occasion, the iPod function stops dead in the middle of a book or sound. When I turn the power on an off, the car iPod system is still locked. The other functions of the sound system like regular and sattellite radio work fine. When I disconnent the iPhone there is a "Check Device" message on the car system screen. The only way to unfreeze the system is to turn of the ignition and restart the car. It seemed to start doing this after I installed the iPhone iOS4 upgrade last month. Anyone else seeing this?

    Same here. Brand new Nissan Altima Coupe with the Bose PY05F premium sound system. Stuttering, staggering and flat out freezes up.
