Apple tv just started showing I need to connect to itunes.

I can't as I do not have the cable needed. What can I do?

I may be wrong Karsten but the OP seems to be saying that the Apple TV is asking for the cable and hence it is that 'special situation' you refer to.

    Given the state your device is in you have already erased your old stuff. You have an image on the screen that says, "Connect to iTunes." That's what the image means. So you will need iTunes on your computer.

  • My ipad has just started showing 'no sim'

    My ipad has just started showing 'no sim', although it has worked perfectly with a sim for over a year. I had the SIM card replaced and the new one is shown as activated and ok. Any ideas as the problem obviously lies with the ipad?

    Try a reset.  Press and hold the On/Off and Home buttons simultaneously until you see the Apple logo, then release.  This may take up to 10 seconds.  This is the equivalent of a PC re-boot and you will not lose any data.

    I watched all the video tutorials, but I'm not clear on these parts.
    1. How to do a fade in / fade out title intro over the moving scene of the video?
    2. How to adjust the color to saturate / brighten / darken video scenes?
    3. How to make a credits page at end of video?
    4. Also, confused because I have only 2 image / audio clips for my very short video. The first video clip has the audio track with one sound graph displayed when enlarged. The second video clip has audio with 2 sound graph images stacked on top of each other saying R and L, right and left. The first audio clip does not have this, does not look like this. This is confusing. I thought both audio clips should look the same. What's up with this? Do I have something duplicated?
    5. Is there anyone here from South Orange County, California, USA, who would like to be of help to me via email, phone, Skype?
    6. I am a new Youtube Partner / Vlogger and it's taking me quite a while to get the hang of this so I appreciate any helpers.

  • My apple tv recently started showing only Internet, Computers and Settings as options

    My apple tv recently started showing only Internet, Computers, and Settings as options. Does anyone know where the Television and Movies went. Anyone else experiencing this issue? I want my MLB and Netflix!

    I had the loss of Internet after updating to 5.0.
    Only Computers and Settings are available.
    I tried through Ethernet cable, manual settings of the IP addresses etc. but no  result. still only Computers and settings.
    It communicates with internet for Home sharing etc. Checking the network through ATV is happening. Only problem is "internet " option is not visible.
    I have not changed any settongs in the wifi router during this process. The same ATV was working with all 3 options before update. will the update do any changes to WIFI Router in blocking DNS etc?
    Any advice will be ok.

  • HT1414 My ipod seems to have just died. It would not allow me to slide to open and then it went to a screen that showed a picture of connect to itunes. I did that and it gave me the option to restore so I did that and now I get nothing a black screen w/fa

    Just went to open my ipod and seems to have died. Worked fine this morning. Showed a pic of connect to itunes and did that and it said I needed to restore to factory settings so I did that and now nothing just black screen with faint apple in the back  ground will not turn off or on and itunes will not recognize it?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    my ipod keeps asking me to restore and when i do restore it just restarts and asks me to connect to itunes and starts again.please help its my sons bday and this is his present

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

    Then try restoring on another computer.
    Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    Dear Apple Support,
    Good day to you.
    This is to report the problem i encountered when i updated my Ipad mini to the new IOS 8.1..
    After the update my Ipad restart and after that it appears a picture that need to connect to itunes and need  to restore. So i connect it to itunes and wait to restore my ipad mini because it is not opening.
    After restoring it my ipad is now opening and it is like new that i need to set up again.
    I set up again until i reach the apple id and password.
    I put my below apple ID and password to unlock my ipad but it didn't work. The message i receive is "the apple ID cannot be used to unlock this Ipad.
    What will I do? Please help.

    Dear Leslie J.,
    Your Apple ID was used to sign in to iCloud and iMessage on an iPad mini named “Leslie Joye's iPad”.
    If you have not recently set up an iPad with your Apple ID, then you should change your Apple ID password. Learn more.

    1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
    2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
    Is your iPad working?
