Apple TV HDMI 1.4 compliance for Ethernet

I have a 3rd Gen Apple TV.  I understand it is HDMI 1.4 compliant.  I am about to get a new AV Receiver which is 1.4 HDMI compliant and this will be connected to the internet via an ethernet cable.  The question I have is, if I connect the Apple TV to the receiver with a 1.4 HDMI cable (which has inbuilt ethernet) will there then be no need to connect another ethernet cable to the Apple TV?  i.e. the apple TV will be able to get access to the internet via the AV Receiver?

Would have thought that any 1.4 device could do it.  I'm hoping at least my 1.4 tv will be able to get it's internet via the receiver...it's been a long time since 1.4 arrived after all!

  • I have a Samsung HD TV and I purchased a Mini Display port to HDMI Adapter today. For some strange reason I get no display on my HD tv. I even tried switching a few HDMI cables and nothing popped up. I made sure my computer was updated. Help pls

    I have a Samsung HD TV and I purchased a Mini Display port to HDMI Adapter today. For some strange reason I get no display on my HD tv. I even tried switching a few HDMI cables and nothing popped up. I made sure my computer performed all software updates, and I even tried calling Apple Support. They just told me to keep trying different hdmi cables and see if anything pops up. Does anybody know what the problem is? My HDMI cable is from "rocketfish" also my display port is too.

    You may have the screen refresh rate set higher than the TV is generally able to track reliably. It may be able to get there most times, but occasionally loses sync because it is out of its nominal range.
    I suggest you sit down with the manual for the TV and find out what resolutions at what refresh rates it intends to support through VGA, and make sure your screen settings are near (or below) those limits.

  • Apple TV  - HDMI or Component

    Please forgive me If the issue I have raised is one that has been discussed at length previously. I am new to all things Apple and new to discussion forums.
    I am now the owner of an Apple TV.
    I intend to use it with my Panasonic HD ready plasma. However, I am currently using all three of the HDMI ports - A Humax freesat HD PVR, a Panasonic BD player and a PS3. Of which I use the PS3 the least.
    What connection is the best for Apple TV? HDMI or Component?
    Should I simply connect the Apple TV via Component - without having to reconnect anything else.
    Or should I hook up the Apple TV via HDMI and re-connect the PS3 via component?
    Sorry for being a muppet!
    Any help on this issue would be appreciated.

    If you have a 1080p24 television (a.k.a. TrueHD), then I would advise keeping the PS3 on HDMI and using component for the AppleTV. The reason for this is that the PS3 can play movies and games at full 1080p, whereas the HD content on the AppleTV is heavily compressed in comparison and limited to 720p. As far as I can see, the only benefit you get by running the AppleTV in 1080p mode is when viewing high resolution photos.
    I have also had many problems using the AppleTV in 1080p mode with an HDMI cable and my Sony Bravia 1080p24 LCD television. When I try and play a video, I get a blank screen until I reset the ATV. The only way I have managed to prevent this from happening is by using a component cable and switching to 720p mode.

  • Apple TV Hdmi intermittent

    I purchased sky fly 007 and played on my Apple TV on the same date. The first viewing 
    Was perfectly ok and no problem at all. I tried to watch the movie again after three days
    Of purchase but giving me an intermittent interruptions. It looks like it won't work after you
    Pay the bill.

  • Photos displaying 16:9 through Apple TV HDMI ??? How do it ?

    How can I display photos in 16:9 on a SONY Bravia through a HDMI connection from the 160GB Apple TV ?
    I was surprised today when I used my iPod Photo on a widescreen TV for a slideshow, and even without HDMI connection, the photos displayed in all screen (16:9).
    In my Sony Bravia the photos displayed through the Apple Tv (HDMI connection), use less screen.
    Why is that ?

  • Mac wakes up for Ethernet network administrator access, goes to sleep again

    I'm running Mac OS X 10.4.6 on an iMac G5, and the OS is set up such that it presents a login prompt after the Mac is witched on from standby mode. If one does not start to type in a password, the machine goes back into standby mode after a dozen seconds or so, which is helpful e.g. in case I have hit the keyboard by accident.
    However, there are situations when I don't want this to happen. For instance, I own a SqueezeBox v5 device, which will wake also the Mac when I turn it on via its remote control (I assume via "Wake for Ethernet network administrator access"). However, since I do type on the Mac keyboard in this case, but use the Squeezebox remote control instead, the Mac decides to turn itself off again. I'm also facing this with utilities that try to wake up my Mac at a certain time to perform their functions (e.g. with Audio Hijack Pro).
    So my question is, is there any way to tell Mac OS X not to fall back into standby mode when woken up by another mechanism than normal keyboard typing, via some configuration file or similar. Turning off the keyword prompt entirely is not a tolerable option for me in this case.
    Thanks for any help on this,
    Christian
    iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)
      Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    The 'wake for ethernet network administrator access' does not mean 'wake on any old ethernet traffic you like'.
    In other words you can't just try to hit any service you choose - if the machine is asleep then it doesn't even have an IP address that's going to listen to your hit.
    How it works is via a special broadcast protocol sent from another machine on the LAN. The packet is sent to the machine's hardware MAC address (and therefore doesn't need any services to be running on the machine). When the hardware detects the packet it wakes up the machine.
    There are a few utilities that will send the relevant packets to wake a machine. Apple Remote Desktop has it, but so do free utilities like WakeOnLAN.

    Hi Rob - thanks so much for your help!  Could you tell me what "air sever or reflector apps." are? and where can I look for information about them?
    Do you use them on the Ipad or on the PC?
    Do I need a cable too and which one?
    Sorry... I am not very technical as you can see, thanks for your help.

  • Does Apple TV require a monitor connection for boot up?

    I'm trying to use ATV as an audio server only (no video) controlled via the Apple remote application on my iPhone for connection to a distributed audio system in my house. I have connected the ATV to a Plasma TV via HDMI for configuration and connection to my wireless network and everything has synchronized and is working properly. I then unplug the ATV and move it to a new location for distributed audio purposes only and the ATV is not connecting back to the network. I have no monitor located anywhere near the new connection point so I only have RCA audio capables attached between the ATV and my distributed audio system (Russound CAV 6.6) My question is this: Does ATV require a monitor be connected to complete the boot up process and connect back to the network?

    yes multiple libraries (the file that has location of content) but a single centralized storage location for content... but i thought that's what you wanted in each zone? if not you could just have multiple accounts, enable iTunes sharing to the other accounts and then airTunes from those accounts to the appleTVs (if that works haven't tried it)... could only do audio this way since video iTunes sharing only works from computer to computer.
    me and my wife have separate accounts on our G5 desktop. so we each can have our own playlists, podcast etc but as far as actual content... thats on one location that we can both access and we share that. music for both accounts is in a shared folder on an internal drive and movies are on an external drive that we both have access to as well. we have nothing in our iTunes folders except our podcasts that we subscribe to. this way there is no duplication of content. we also have a mac mini in a bedroom that has nothing on it... everything there (movies, music etc) is access via iTunes sharing from my or my wife's (usually mine... since all the movies are added on my account)... so in this way you do have centralized storage.. and you also have the flexibility of having different content if that's what you'd like. i think people have gotten into trouble when they've tried to use the same library and iTunes folder for multiple account and ended with corrupted library file..

  • When I try to long into Icloud my Apple ID is valid but not for ICloud account, how do I set up my account if I cannot sign in?

    How do I set up my ICloud account when my Apple ID is not set up for ICloud?

    You have to first create your account on an Apple device.  You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC by signing with your Apple ID.  You can only sign into an existing iCloud account on a PC.  You first have to create your iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

  • Why won't Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the contract was honored and I am still an AT

    Why won't Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the 2  year contract was honored and I continued to be an AT&T customer with an iPhone 4. I wanted my old 3gs unlocked so my daughter could use it overseas when she is deployed. AT&T service over there *****, the international plan was not worth it. The individual SIM cards per country are much more reliable and cheaper. Teslestial in Iraq and Afghanistan, Telecom in Croatia,Vodafphone in Germany and Italy.  Why Apple will not unlock these phones for our military to utilize is incomprehensible to me.  These young men and women are fighting for these Apple people to go to work every day, safe, to live lives they have become accustom to yet releasing a phone to use on another network they can't do at least for the military.... WHY APPLE??  WHY?   A good excuse not some of the many lame excuses I have received on the phone many times. AT&T states it is Apple that will not allow them to unlock the phones...  Please tell me why?  All I want Is my daughter to have a phone I trust, to be able to call me when she is given the free time to do so and I trust the apple phone.
    Apple, please reconsider your stance on this issue.  I am having a hard time understanding why you will not unlock the iPhone. 
    A simple code could allow me to talk to my daughter while fighting for our country the Great USA.  Apple should be on the front line and enabling those fighting for our life, liberty and pursuit of happiness to use unlocked phones on reliable local GSM networks.
    I honestly hope that someone who has some sort of authority to begin allowing the release of unlock codes, and not forcing people to unlock their phones with some program produced by some hack just to be able to use your wonderful phone.  That is is in a nutshell, People love the iPhone so much that they want the ability to use it on the most reliable GSM carrier available to them.  That should be a major compliment. Even men and women on the front line want your phone. I agree, my service is not the best where I live either, love the GSM technology so stay with it, but if I had the ability to change to the other GSM network that has much better coverage in this area of the country I would change. To change now I would not have my iPhone and that I will not part with. 
    Apple, please reconsider opening up the lock code and allow your gem of a phone to be used by many more people in many more areas and most importantly overseas fighting for our country.  I know if this is really thought about Apple would understand and come to the conclusion to release the unlock codes, and stop the people from hacking in to use the iPhone on other networks.
    I would love for my daughter to be able to use my iPhone 3gs while fighting for our Free country.
    A response would be appreciated.
    Thank you.
    An Apple customer for 10 years, phones and computers.
    P

    Defiled:
    I did sign a two year contract and completed that contract. The 3gs is no longer in service. My daughter is going overseas to protect you and your family. I was attempting to find a way for her to have a reliable phone that could offer her some connection with home as she travels through the middle east.  She travels in missions all over.
    At&T unlocks other phones of theirs why not the iPhone?  AT&T says that Apple will not give them the code, it is not the carrier.  If I would have known this situation would have come up I would have bought and unlocked 3gs phone"Deggie" .  My main complaint is that Apple has not good excuse as to why they will not allow their phones to be unlocked from services well, AT&T .  I bought the phone full price, completed the contract terms, even went for and iPhone 4 with another2 year contract, along with owning an apple computer... I love the product.  My main issue is give me a good answer as to why you won't allow a phone to be unlocked. It doesn't hurt Apple, People still have to buy the phones from them, and use their App store and iTunes.
    Sorry, just upset about my daughter heading over there, boots on the ground, and just pray she will be safe. Would have liked to facetime her while she is in the airports and in specific areas allowed for that.
    Please don't come down on me for asking this question. I understand all the contracts etc.... but to single out the iPhone specifically to not unlock after contract is over does not seem fair.
    Thank you for your responses.

  • I could not get my iPhone 5 which purchased in Australia repaired by apple in the US. Guys from apple retail store verified a replacement for me and asked to call apple care. However, apple care said they cannot get it fixed nor repaired.

    My iPhone 5 got some defects and I went to a apple reatil store yesterday. The guy from the genius bar told me that he verified a replacement for me. And I need to call 1-800-apple care to finish that process. I called apple care and one of the senior supervisors told me that I have to send it back to Australia (where I bought this iPhone) to get it repaired. Turns out I could not solve the problem after a apple store vist and several calls. I just want to know if there any way to solve this. This iPhone is a factory unlocked one that purchased in an apple retail store in Melbourne at the day it was first released. And my experience today is not what I can tell as fair. I will be really appreciate for any helps and advices. Thanks.

    Warranty on iPhone is not international, but valid only in country of
    original sale. Since you purchased the iPhone in Australia, your warranty
    is valid only in Australia. You must either personally return the iPhone
    to Australia for evaluation and possible replacement or sent it to someone
    in Australia to take into Apple for the evaluation. Apple will not accept
    international shipments for repair nor will Apple ship out of the country
    after replacement.
    Sorry to be the bearer of this news, but it is the way iPhone warranty and
    replacement has always worked.
