Apple TV not connecting to network

My Apple TV does not appear to be connecting to the network and says it is trying to set time and date. My kids lost the apple remote so we have been using the iPhone or iPad as the remote, but now the Apple TV isn't visible. Is there a way to fix this without an apple remote?

Scan the Support Community sites and you will find: Apple TV losing connection is prevalent. The many postings point out the problem occurs with:-
1 Apple TV1,2and 3;
2 with different brands of router including Airport Extreme;
3 with current and past versions of iTunes;
4 after varying periods of working well.....minutes, hours, days;
5 losing connection with Home Sharing and losing Airplay;
6 whether the router and Apple TV are in same room or separated by distance;
7 after trying innumerable posted 'fixes';
8 after exchanging for a new Apple TV;
9 with all the recent operating systems -Mountain Lion, Lion, Snow Leopard, Leopard and Lion.
10 when it loses wifi, the ATV will work immediately if you plug in the ethernet cable.....Steve Jobs called the ATV a hobby, but Apple products are supposed to be better than this.
I suspect frustrated readers just give up trying, rather than find a fix, which is why I invite readers to please don't post a fix until you check it works for at least a week.

Apple tv not connected to network?

any ideas how to solve this, it's driving me loco
cheers

A few people have reported that they have been able to do this successfully. You need to have Internet sharing and iTunes sharing turned on in the System Preferences. It also doesn't hurt to turn on File Sharing and Remote Apple Events.

Hey X300X,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with iMessages. The following article may help to resolve your issue:

You may also want to reset your network settings:
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: this will delete any network related settings (saved Wi-Fi passwords, etc), it will not erase any content from your device.
Thanks,

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

ATV not connecting to network

Help please....
aTV will not connect to network. I have reconfigured but no changes, previously no problems - sync'd movie and when attempting to play received msg that not authorised to play. Since then could not connect.
Have tried all sources of help, save going to apple store - forum last resort.

Same thing here. I upgraded to a Dual-Band Time Capsule. I have a MacBook Air which hops on perfectly to the -n network, but Apple TV refuses to see it. It CAN connect to the -g network (which my iPhone uses as well). When i set the ATV to stream, and then go to shared music, it just freezes. "run diagnostics" says everything is working fine. I even did a factory restore and then upgraded the software. same thing.
makes me think it's the ATV, not the network or the Time Capsule, since everything else is working ok. Any ideas? i'm at the point where i'll probably just buy a new ATV to test whether i have a faulty unit.

My iphone 4s will not connect to networks. the button is greyed out and cannot turn o. I have reset the network settings and it still does not work - any ideas?

Thank you I tried the reset again did not fix- I think I am down to calling Apple and paying for a tech - phone company says it is a software problem. I just updated to 8.1.3 - I thought the update might fix it.

I had no problem with my IPad 3 connecting to my wi-fi but for some reason lately it tell me can not connect to network. I reset both my wifi and my ipad and I still get the same error.

I've had my IPad 3 for awhile and had no problems with it. The other day I went to connect to my wi-fi and it told me could not connect to network. It recognizes my wi-fi but won't connect. I have shut off my wi-fi and still the same problem. Today I reset my ipad back to factory and when I get to the wifi setup I still get unable to join the network. What is wrong

Dont use a password to connect the ipad and try if unable to join happens try another network. After that it is a repair. Now most likely it is the password on router. typically you access your router with http://192.168.1.1/ BUT it may be different if you changed it or your router uses different one.

HP Color LaserJet CP1520nw will not connect to network (time out repeatedly)

My HP LaserJet CP1520nw won't connet to my wireless router upon installation, no many how many times I've been asked to connect it to the computer via a USB printer cable. I uninstalled and reinstalled all software, and each time I try to set it up for wireless connectivity by connecting my computer and the printer via a USB printer cable, it gets to 99% installed on the progress bar and sits there until it times out. I suspect one of the follow but am open to other ideas from those more knowledgeable:
1. Is the printer locked onto some old, initial configuration from a previous wireless network that needs to be purged of addresses, etc. before it can accept the new ones?
2. Could my WPA WPA2 PSK AES encrytion be messing it up? Are the modern firmware and updates designed to accept these ? I never have gotten to a screen where it asks for my encyption key or even a WPS pass phrase. What to do if so?
3. Could Church Lady be correct and that it is Satan preventing the installation? If so, what icons does he use to watch out for and will my Norton anti-virus and malware quarantine him to Hell automatically or does it require manual enforcement?

Hi @Marvalina1968,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that your HP Color LaserJet CP1520nw will not connect to network with Windows 7. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!
First to answer your questions:
It is possible the printer could be locked to an old configuration and needs to be reset.
I don't think your WPA WPA2 PSK AES encrytion could be messing it up, unless you got some really strange characters in your password.
Your Norton antivirus, could possible be causing the installation to fail.
Please take a look through the following guides:
'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the HP Printer Will Not Print.
Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.
If the guides do not resolve the issue, please try the following:
Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Disable any antivirus programs. Disable antivirus software.
Disable any firewall programs. Turn Windows Firewall on or off.
Re-install the software. HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
Hope this solves your problem, and have a good day!

Not connected to network although it is connected wirelessly

I have a HP Photosmart 7510 All in one printer. I can print from computers wirelessly but it says not connected to network when i try to use web services, facebook, or efax. I cant even run an update because if no internet connection. i have tried rebooting routers and printer. Nothing else has issues with internet with router. I have also tried typing in the Ip address in the web address bar but when i go to networking it is asking for admin user name and password that i do not know. How can i fix this issue? I have downloaded drivers and software from HP site also.

Hi @Sniper187
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I gather that you have encountered some difficulties with your Photosmart 7510 printer.
I have included a link to a post by @PrintApper regarding the Printables titled HP Apps Service Retired on several printers. It has the information regarding the apps on your printer. I have also included a link to a post by @PrintApper regarding eFax titled eFax users - please read. It has the information regarding the eFax feature.

Hi,
How do you connect the printer to the XP machine ? If USB, you need to make that machine as a Print server. Please try this:

Galaxy Nexus Not connecting to network

Good Evening,
I just received a replacement phone for Galaxy Nexus. The phone is not connecting to network. I am able to connect to wifi but unable to make calls or send texts since having the phone activated last night. When I was in the store last night I was able to receive and send a few text messages but since then haven't been able to communicate using my phone. I don't know if this an issue with the service in the area North Attleboro, MA or with my phone. Been on hold for 20 minutes with customer service.
Thank you,
James

Thanks for the additional information jdeguilio!
No issues noted for North Attleboro. Please reprogram and test. To reprogram please pull the SIM card for one minute, then reinsert and power off/on. I see that you are using the same SIM from previous phone and this should not be a problem; however, if you accidentally touched the golden portion of the SIM card that could cause some issues. If reprogramming does not improve, try a new SIM card. You can get one for free at any Verizon Wireless http://bit.ly/3SdsA corporate store.

Error: EPrint not Enabled, Also: Printer not connected to Network

I have been using this printer and EFax until recently when EFax wont work. I am connected to Network, I can use printer for printing from laptop, IPAD and Iphone. Have good connection. When I attempt to send EFAX, I get "Your printer is not connected to Network" Then I am told to enable EPrint, IT IS enabled. Printer is great, EFax wont work.

This reply may be late for this user, but it might be helpful for any current users.
I managed to change the modem's IP address to match that of the printer. In my case the printer worked fine wirelessly until I moved to a new place and installed a new modem. Here is what I did to solve the problem:
1. At the printer, click on the wireless button, wireless settings, print network configuration page. This will print a page with the printer's IP address (in my case: 192.168.0.13)
2. I accessed my modem via the internet browser, typing 192.168.1.1 (this is one of the default addresses (192.168.0.1 is also common). Default user and password is admin (usually). There I changed the modem's IP address to 192.168.0.1 and the range to start at 192.168.0.13 (my printer's IP address).
3. I saved the settings (the modem will reboot and you will be offline, it may take some 20 seconds before the modem is visible again).
4. Reconnect to the modem and check if internet is still working. Then try to install the printer again.
This worked for me after I read several other postings.
Good luck!

I recently changed my wifi password at home and now my iphone will not connect. It will not ask me for a password just says will not connect to network. Advice on how to get iphone to ask network password for wifi?

I recently changed my wifi password at home and now my iphone will not connect. It will not ask me for a password just says will not connect to network. Advice on how to get iphone to ask network password for wifi?

First, try tapping on the network in the Wi-Fi settings and then tap "forget this network". Then reselect the network in the main Wi-Fi settings screen and see if will then ask for a password. If not, try resetting the Network Settings in the General -> Reset section and then reconnecting to your W-iFi.
Hope this helps.
