Apple tv is not recognizing my apple id..what can i do?

I am setting up my Apple TV homesharing. When I put in my apple ID and password it says that it does not exist or the password is wrong. I have been putting in the same username and password that I use on iTunes so I am not sure what else to do.

yeh me too. Everything seems to be working with my Thomson TG782T modem, it recognises the appletv on the wireless network, I can communicate with my itunes on my computer from the appletv menu system, my itunes library comes up on the appletv menu, but when trying to rent a movie it says that my password is not being recognised. Yet I can buy books from the itunes store using the same password from my ipad. I am at complete loss...my telecommunications company (Telstra) has no idea.
Do you think these little checks and changes to my password will help?

  • OS X 10.3.9 not recognizing my ipod! What can I upgrade to to fix t

    Mainly all I use my computer for is Itunes and the internet. Since my software is so old, I can no longer take music from itunes and put on my ipod and my safari browser closes out unexpectedly from certain website. Mainly I want to solve my Itunes/Ipod problem becausethats really all I need to do.
    I have an iBook G4, 1.07 GHz PowerPC G4, 256 MB Built-In, Mac OS X 10.3.9
    What can I do so I can utilize Itunes and my ipod without buying a new Mac????

    Welcome To  Discussions JDuggan!
    "...iBook G4, 1.07 GHz..."
    Is the 1.07 GHz correct or should it be 1.0 GHz?
    As the install disc is easier to locate and less expensive than Tiger 10.4.x, I suggest you upgrade to Leopard 10.5.x.
    The iBook G4/1.0 GHz supports the Leopard System Requirements.
    The posted RAM System Requirement is the bare minimum. For optimum performance, more is recommended.
    The Full Retail Version, of the Leopard Install DVD, can be purchased at The Apple Store (U.S.).
    If you know what to look for, a Full Retail Version, of the Leopard Install DVD, can also be purchased, at some online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, FastMac, HardCore Mac, etc.
    Be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
    Leopard ison DVD.
    The discs should look exactly like the images in the above links, and not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on them.
    Caveat Emptor!
    If any are presently available, examine these items very carefully, and if in doubt, ask questions of the seller before purchase!
    Leopard On eBay
    If Leopard 10.5.x is installed, use the Mac OS X 10.5.7 Update.

  • My apple tv remote play button is not working so i can not access anything...what can i do?

    My remote will not work on Apple TV. The play button does not play so I can not access any content. What can I do?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.

    Hi billzundel17,
    If you are having an issue with your Apple TV telling you it can not play HDCP content, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): About Apple TV and HDCP - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • I have an Apple Air Book and I am very satisfied with it except there are video that I cannot see.  The reason is that Quick Time will not support the video.  What can I do to be able to get these videos?

    I have an Apple Air Book and I am very satisfied with it except there are video that I cannot see.  The reason is that Quick Time will not support the video.  What can I do to be able to get these videos?  I have all ready download Adobe Flash Player and installed it but it has not effect.

    Get Flip4Mac (for Windows Media videos):
    http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.asp?prodid=flip4mac wmv
    And Perian for everything else:
    http://perian.org/
    You should be able to play most videos with QuickTime player once both are installed.

    Im using somebodies apple id..
    That is the problem. You are supposed to use your own Apple ID. If the person who owns the ID is not a user of your computer and will install the apps with the ID on the computer for you, you need to buy the apps with your own Apple ID and install them instead of the versions that you do not own.

  • I turned my Ipad off and when I tried to turn it back on, only the apple displays and it will not go past that.  What can I do to get it to come back on?  It won't acknowledge it when I plug it in either.

  • My ipod video is not recognized by the computer what should i do/

    my ipod video is not recognized by the computer what should i do?

    What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue?  Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
    What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?
    How to reset iPod
    Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
    Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

  • HT6001 the version 11.1.4 of iTunes not working good because it's not recognizing my iPhone and I can't do anything.

    the version 11.1.4 of iTunes not working good because it's not recognizing my iPhone and I can't do anything.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (If this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • TS3694 My ipad can not be restored because it is not recognized by itunes.  What do I do?

    My Ipad isnt allowing me to charge it.  It shows red and the lightening bolt.  It then shows me the message to hook up to itunes.  When i do that, I am getting a message that says the ipad needs to be restored.  When I attempt to restore, itunes is not recognizing the ipad.  what next?

    Not charging:
    1. Try a reset
    2. Clean docking port with clean tooth brush
    3. Try another wall socket
    4. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)
    5. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger)
