Apple tv - iTunes timing out with music

I upgraded apple tv last month.  Since then, when in itunes, music times out within 20 minutes.  I remain connected to my PC because my photos still play as the screen saver.  It happens every time.  Occasionally if I wait long enuf the music will start up.  I am on Win7 and assume that I am on gen2.  I bought the apple tv in late 2010.

I bought my Apple TV on January 2.  I am having the same problem.  I followed one suggestion that involved rebooting the AppleTV device.  That has partially helped by extending the time before my iTunes stops playing on AppleTV.  Can anyone help with this home sharing problem.
thanks!

  • Apple Script - Apple Event is Timing Out

    i am a novice at apple scripting. i have written an apple script for backing up my desktop to my iPod. i was able to do this based on the basic info in my "panther- the missing manual" book that i have. i have the basic script working but after about 2 minutes into the backup, my "Script Editor" icon in the toolbar starts bouncing and when i click on it, i get a window that says that the apple event has timed out. the backup continues and finishes without problems. however, i would like to edit the apple script to correct this issue and eliminate this error message. i have tried experimenting with applescript commands but i have not been able to find a good primer to learn the language. i need to add script that will allow the event to run for four minutes before it times out.
    anyone know the applescript wording to fix my error message?
    thanks

    Place the statements inside a block such as:

    thanks for getting back to me. i tried to use this additional script before, after and inside my original script and still was timing out.
    this is the last script i tried. the compiler compiles is fine. i just keep getting the "timeout" error message after two minutes. i have also tried your the additional script before the "tell" and after the "end tell". complies and runs fine in these other locations but still get the error message after two minutes.
    tell application "Finder"
    with timeout of 300 seconds
    --commands
    end timeout
    duplicate folder "Desktop" of folder "alan" of folder "users" of startup disk to disk "Encrypted iPod" with replacing
    end tell

  • Why did the new update for itunes wipe out my music library?

    Why did the new update for itunes wipe out my music library?

    Very vague question.
    It should not.
    There is no way to know with the vague question you asked and no information at all.

    iPhone 3G has received its last iOS update. If wallpapers behind the homescreen icons is such an important feature for you, you'll need a newer model iPhone.

  • I can't sync my music in itunes, itunes leaves out some musics in some playlist.

    I can't sync my music in itunes, itunes leaves out some musics in some playlist. For example, Even though a playlist have 9 music, itunes copies just one of them to my iphone.

    I'm only trying to sync 350 songs. When I click "sync" the process will start but it won't end in my iTunes. My iPhone's sync symbol dissapears and the sync symbol in iTunes in my PC is still there. The sync process that consits of 5-7 steps won't finish the last step and keeps "downloading Safari secure browsing data" (I don't know if this translation is correct, I'm Spanish and iTunes is set up in Spanish too)
    I've tried turning off Wi-Fi because some people got rid of this problem this way supposedly, but it didn't work at all

  • Is Apple going to come out with an iPod touch that has built in Wi-fi ?

    Apple should realy come out with an iPod Touch that has built in Wi-Fi. They iPod Touch could be just like a phone! I think everyone would upgrade to it.

    Yeah , but you can only connect to Wi-Fi if you have a router , which in my case , I dont have one . I already have a phone , but it would be nice for it to have built in Wi-Fi so I could use the Internet or Facetime with people ANYWHERE , even if the place I was at DID NOT have a router / Wi-Fi connection . They iPad has built in Wi-Fi , so why not have the iPod Touch have built in Wi-Fi ?(:

  • How can I merge two iTunes folder, one with music and the other without?

    Two years ago Apple support suggested moving my iTunes folder out of my Home folder to the HD level in order to share it across users. This is no longer necessary. How do I move my music back to my Home folder since now I have an Itunes folder at the HD level (along with application, library, system, users folders) and an Itunes folder under Music in my Home folder. For example both those itunes folders have a mobile application, album artwork, and previous itunes library subfolder as well as itunes library extras.itdb and itunes library genius.itdb. How do I merge them or which ones do I delete? The files in the mobile app folder in my Home folder have a newer "last modified" date. Currenty under Itunes-->Preferences-->Advanced, it says Itunes media location is /itunes/itunes media/ music. I assumes that is the HD level folder. What happens if I hit reset?
    I am using Itunes 10.6.3.
    Any help tailored to a novice would be great. Thanks.

    Thanks for the links, Limnos.
    If you are willing to continue helping, here's what I found.
    Just to clarify the two iTunes folders I am refering to are:
    username-->Music-->iTunes
    HD-->iTunes
    I am presuming each location has a full set of files as outlined in the above links?
    Not all the files are in both locations. Most are.
    - The Itunes folder in my home folder does not have itunes library.xml.
    - The Itunes folder in my home folder has a subfolder called Mobile Applications (username-->Music-->iTunes--> Mobile application). The Itunes folder at the HD level also has a Mobile Application folder but it is a subfolder of Itunes Media folder (HD-->iTunes--> iTunes Media-->Mobile applications) and has no files in it.
    - I do not have an iTunes Media in the iTunes folder in my home folder.
    - also the Itunes media folder (HD-->iTunes--> iTunes Media) has subfolders by type (books, movies, itunes u, music etc...) but the iTunes Media-->Music also has some of the same subfolders ( iTunes Media-->Music-->books, iTunes Media-->Music-->Movies, iTunes Media-->Music-->iTunes U). Is this normal repetition?
    You say:
    /itunes/itunes media/ music
    but it is important to note what comes before all that.
    There is nothing as far as I can tell before that first forward slash. Since the only iTunes Media folder I have is in the iTunes folder that resides at the HD level (HD-->iTunes--> iTunes Media folder) not the iTunes folder in my home folder (username-->Music-->iTunes) , I assume that's the one that holds the music.
    Keep iTunes media folder organized and Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library are both checked on
    Does that give more clarity into my problem?

  • Apple ID is timing out my session incessantly

    Hello,
    I have recently created a new Apple ID with my custom Google Apps email. I am trying to manage its settings (specifically trying to enable dual factor authentication) but it is timing out my session before I can do anything. If I'm lucky enough to enough make it to through clicking on "Password and Security", it will for-sure sign me out by the time I've entered my phone number. It's not just with Password and Security, I really can't do anything without it timing out my session. My sessions seem to last about 20 seconds. I will be surprised if I can even post this thread without it signing me out, so I'm going to copy it before I post it.
    If it means anything, I am on the latest iteration of OS X and I'm using Google Chrome. Also, this is not the first time I have had this issue, but I decided to finally do something about it. I know how much Apple values security but 20-second sessions? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Skip the step, you can correct it in the device Settings
    1. Settings > iCloud > Apple ID > Enter Apple ID
    2. Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID > Enter Apple ID
    3. Settings > FaceTime > On
    4. Settings > Messages > iMessage > On
    Basically this how you manually setup, on at a time, what the setup assistant does all at once and that should forgo the timing out problem

  • Trouble getting iTunes to sync with music on my external hard drive

    PLEASE HELP ME! I recently moved all of my music to my external hard drive to free up space on my computer. I have all the original files on my hard drive now, but (perhaps stupidly) deleted all the files from my actual computer. Now, I'm afraid I can't get all my ratings, last time played, number of plays, playlists, etc. back.
    This is basically what I did:
    1. Moved music from computer to External
    2. In my iTunes preferences menu, I changed my "iTunes Music Folder Location" to the same original folder on my external hard drive.
    My problem is that after I did that, iTunes didn't automatically add all my files back into the program. Now, it seems like I've got to add everything back one by one and everything without my customized info (#plays, recently played/added, rating, playlists, etc).
    Will someone please just talk to me about this since AppleCare represetatives refuse to deal with problems that have absolutely anything to do with products that aren't made by them....even though I bought the thing at an Apple Store. I'm not sure if I'm giving the right info...I just need someone to ask me the right questions! PLEASE!

    Here's Apple's method of moving your Music Folder:
    iTunes: Moving your iTunes Music folder
    It refers to iTunes 4 but works for iTunes 6. Notice step 14. Leave the iTunes Library & iTunes Music Library files in the ~/Music/iTunes folder on your internal HD. This is where iTunes, also other iLife apps, expect to find them.
    What are the iTunes library files?

  • Itunes timing out when trying to connect to store

    So I'm about to recieve an iphone in an hour or two and i'm a little upset because for the past hour i've tried to connect to the itunes store and everytime but once it has timed out. my internet is working fine and i can download my podcasts and play music fine. any troubleshooting i can do so i can connect and set up my new cell subscription?

  • Itunes timing out when updating

    I am trying to uo date iTunes to 8.0.2 and when i chick on "update" is goes through the motions with the system updater and after i chick "agree" on the terms and then a message pops up that says "A networking error has occurred: timed out (-1001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again." And yes, i am connected to the internet because i just updated Safari with the same updater. Suggestions?

    Before beginning the download, try temporarily disabling the antivirus, anti-adware, anti-spyware, and any other anti-whatever that is required and is running with that secure OS.

  • Facebook timed out with new Ios 4

    Hi,
    When I use my 3GS with wifi disabled, I can't access to facebook, Safari and other apps. I see the wheel turning and Then I have a message saying "timed out". I restore my 3GS, reinstall all the applications but nothing. All is working in wifi mode. Could you help me? Thanks

    Exactly the same happened to my iPhone 3GS. While Apple Service proposed to send the iPhone to repair centre I´ve found that the problem only happened with activated SIM card pin security check. Switching pin checking off and re-installing software again helped. There are other threads discussing similiar problems; maybe, it is a matter of the service provider (Vodafone in my case).

  • APPLE: Please take videos OUT of music folder!!!!

    Apple, you're killing me on space. I love that I can download videos but please let me store them in a folder OUTSIDE the music folder!!! I simply cannot store all the music and videos in one place.
    I have 83 GBs of music in my music folder. I have a 160 GB external hard drive, 83 GB use for music, 34 GB for photos (in iPhoto)...bring it up to 117 for my 'current' iLife programs. I downloaded one 30 min episode of a program yesterday and that alone was 115 mb. Downloading a hour program would be 230 mb. If I downloaded the entire first season of Desperate Housewives, for example, 5.29 GB... Closing the game even tighter on my 160 GB hard drive!!
    You simply MUST allow users to set a default folder for videos elsewhere and take it OUTSIDE the music folder!!

    Steve hello,
    You say
    I don't quite understand why more people aren't sympathetic to what Christopher is saying.
    When someone's understanding of what is happening and what is not is flawed, it is hard to make sense of it all... now do not get me wrong as I have no axe to grind but your own understanding is not quite right as well... I will explain...
    Apple's current system of saving other media (in this case video) to the MUSIC folder makes storage difficult..
    Think of another file, say an Appleworks document, you create it and you save it... where do you save it ?... the program will suggest somewhere based upon file type but you choose where it goes in the end...
    The same basic principles are at work here in iTunes... you create it (rip) and you save it (location ?) the only change is you decide in advance where you want files stored by setting the location for newly added files in the preference settings...
    the result is exactly the same as all other files on your computer...
    and as I said earlier "when ripping or importing files a copy is automatically placed in the nominated location, you have no say in this...
    if the nominated location folder is not available a copy will be placed in the home iTunes Music folder and if that is missing a new one will be created and they will be put there..
    I fail to see where the perceived problem exists...
    for example, If it worked the other way ... you set a music file to download and you are not available when it has finished downloading, where does the computer put the file ?
    this should be looked upon as a 'god-send' as any files handled by iTunes will be saved with no further input from the user necessary... you have chosen where with two clicks, in advance.
    A thought: whilst it may seem like a good idea to have a command setting in iTunes preferences that locates Music files in this folder and videos in another and movies in yet another one, let alone all the podcasts etc. and other things of the future... it will get very crowded and in a crowded place things can and do get confusing...let's hope they keep it simple... and user freindly
    Finally Steve what do you mean by this statement ?
    We cannot split our iTunes music Library between two drives (or partitions)..
    Why not thousands of other do this all the time including me...
    take care Steve .... TP

  • "Connection timed out" with HttpClient.

    Hi,
    My goal is to consume a web service using Apache AXIS. This web service uses Integrated Windows Authentication.
    I use IE have configured Proxy server address and Proxy server port using IE's Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections Tab -> LAN Settings -> Proxy serer.
    If type the webservice endpoint address of the form http://239.271.380.120/serveme/WS.asmx in my browser then I see in my browser "You are not authorized to view this page .. HTTP Error 401.2 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to server configuration. Internet Information Services (IIS)" but there is another client in another network who is getting a login dialog to enter domain\\username and password when he types the web service endpoint address in the browser. This makes me think that either the so called another client is in the same domain as the web service provider and I am not.
    Anway, I tried to write standalone HttpClient (I use commons-httpclient-3.0-rc3, commons-codec-1.3, commons-logging-1.0.4) program NTCredentialsClient.java like below :
    NTCredentialsClient.java
    import org.apache.commons.httpclient.*;
    import org.apache.commons.httpclient.auth.*;
    import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.*;
    public class NTCredentialsClient {
         public static void main(String args[]) {
              HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
              NTCredentials credentials = new NTCredentials("user1", "password1", "MYDESKTOP", "domain1");
              AuthScope authScope = new AuthScope("20.222.335.37", 3128);
              client.getState().setCredentials(authScope, credentials);
              //client.getState().setCredentials(AuthScope.ANY, credentials);
              GetMethod get = new GetMethod("http://239.271.380.120/serveme/WS.asmx");
              get.setDoAuthentication(true);
              try {
                   int status = client.executeMethod(get);
                   System.out.println(status);
                   get.getResponseBodyAsStream();
                   // print the status and response
                    System.out.println(status + "\n" + get.getResponseBodyAsString());
              catch (Exception e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
              finally {
                   get.releaseConnection();
    ------------------------------------------------------------------In the above program, user1, password1, domain1 are details given by my service provider and

    You will need to define your proxy settings. In java, these are provided as system properties:
    System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", "<proxy>");
    System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", "<port>");
    If your proxy uses HTTP authentication, you will need to define a few more system properties, which I don't know off the top of my head. This should actually get you connected with the web server, but as for the 302 error, you'll probably need to contact the system administrator.
    Cheers
    Todd.
