Apple TV not working since new Time Capsule...Sync

I bought myself a new 1TB Time Capsule yesterday and set it up fairly easily. However, I notice now that I cannot sync my TV to my iMac anymore. It says:
The Apple TV "Living Room Apple TV" is not repsonding.
Check that any firewall software running on this computer has been set to allow communication on port 3689.
Not sure what this means. I have 2 TV's in my flat. 1(160GB) which is wired to my TC and I sync my iTunes to it. The other (40GB) I stream wirelessly to. I have no problem with the streaming one but the message comes when I try to sync the 160GB one.
Anyone with any ideas?
Thanks..

I experienced the same issue with the replacement of an Airport with a 1TB Time Capsule.
FIX: Go to System Preferences/Security/Firewall, then select "Allow all incoming connections".
This was set to "Set access to specific services and applications" on my system when I experienced the same syncing error you reported.
Good luck !

  • Apple TV not working since new time capsule

    hi, i've a new 3TB Time Capsule, I have added it to my Apple Network (with an airport express and older Timecapsule as network extenders). All is fine with internet and back ups etc but my Apple TV's will not play any video over airplay, can you help pls? thanks very much.

    Does the apple TV have network access and can you access the itunes store from it??
    Is the issue just airplay or is it larger than that?
    If it has changed IP or something you might need to shutdown the whole network and all the computers and restart again. Make sure the ATV is available on the local network.
    Beyond that another user might be able to help more.. I don't use airplay.

  • Apple TV not working well with time capsule

    So, I have an apple time capsule which serves two functions: wifi base station and the repository for my massive iTunes library. I connect this via wifi to my Apple TV (not sure which generation it is). The media seems to play well when I play it on my computer, but the Apple TV has a very hard time playing it, sometimes not even showing pieces of media I know are there. Also, doing airplay from my computer or iPad to the Apple TV is very inconsistent. Also experience the same playing issue with netflix. I have recently resorted to watching most things on my iPad and experience no problems.
    Suggestions? One thing that comes to my mind is to do a factory settings reset on the Apple TV. Would that do anything?

    Hi zachfromind,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand you are having issues with content on your Apple TV. It sounds like you have everything set up correctly and you are very aware of how the content should be displayed and played. At this point yes, I would suggest restoring the Apple TV back to factory settings and then joining it back to your network and testing. It sounds like you are familiar with the process but you can use the following article for reference if needed.

  • External hard drive is not working on airport time capsule even after 7.7.2 firmware update.

    External hard drive is not working on airport time capsule even after 7.7.2 firmware update.
    I have the latest Airpor Time capsule 2gb. I specifically bought it so that I could have an external hardrive set up to wirelessly house my itunes library and movies. When i connect the drive, all i get is that the disk needs to be repaired.
    the drive can works fine when connected to the macbook pro and I have run the verify and repair features in disk utility. I have also reset the airport timecapsule as well following these changes and still no change.
    The 7.7.2 update says that it addressed the usb issue of not showing the drives but there are still problems as I cannot get it to appear.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    How is the hard drive formatted?
    Have you tried using a powered USB hub with the drive when it is connected to the Time Capsule?
    (The USB port on the Time Capsule is borderline as far as power is concerned....you may need to use a powered hub.....even if the hard drive has its own power supply)
    If the drive is formatted correctly....and....it has ample power, it will "show up" when you open AirPort Utility, click Edit, then click the Disks tab at the top of the next window.
    In the example below, my Time Capsule drive is named "Backups" and another drive named "WD Drive" is connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule.
    You should see the name of your Time Capsule drive (named "Data" unless you have changed the name) and the name of the USB drive if you perform the same check.
    What do you see?

  • One speaker is not working since long time

  • WiFi no longer working with new Time Capsule-can you help please?

    Hi all,
    Just received my new Time Capsule (TC). It was a little problematic setting up, but probably due to my now choosing to increase my security from WEP to WPA as the TC set-up assistant suggests. Since then, I have had numerous problems getting my other computers and now my iPhone to connect with WiFi.
    The problem is that despite entering all the new settings and WPA passwords for my connection with the TC, the iPhone will either momentarily recognize and go to wifi or simply stay on Edge.
    On the former, with wifi active, as soon as I go to iTunes, Safari or check email, it reverts to Edge. On the latter, despite resetting, entering password, or tapping Settings and selecting my wifi connection, it will NOT connect and stays on Edge.
    (Now, I'm on Edge! I'm bummed that with new hardware I have new problems that didn't exist before!)
    Can someone who had this same problem tell me how they resolved it.
    Here's the one clue I have, but would rather not resort to: When I first set up the TC, I had it on WEP with a WDS Network, and everything was working great and FAST! Now that I have increased the security—I will be backing up 3 computers to the TC—my iPhone and other computers seem to have intermittent or no wifi connection as a result.)

    Irving Gonzales,
    If your computers are 802.11N capable, you might want to try an advanced setup that might help your Time Machine speeds some. I have not personally tested it, so it is just a personal theory at this point.
    First, in a mixed environment the 802.11N clients all get slowed down.
    First, configure the TC for 802.11N only.
    Second, connect the Airport Express via ethernet to the Time Capsule
    Third, configure the Airport Express for bridged mode (doesn't give out IP addresses), and for its own wireless network with a different name than the Time Capsule.
    Have any 802.11b/g clients like the iPhone join the Airport Express' network.
    Thank you,
    Nathan C.

  • Apple TV not working with new softwear iOS 7, Apple TV not working with new softwear iOS 7

    Since updated softwear on iPad to 7.0 Apple TV not working?

    I had a similar issue, without the actual error message. If you can't get it running at all, you will be forced to do what I, and many others have done over the past 24 hours. You can restore your Apple TV to factory settings (you will then have to enter your ID, passwords, etc., to connect everything again--sigh--) by obtianing a Micro-USB cable (found one today at Best Buy for 5 bucks, available other places that sell electronics, etc.) disconnect your Apple TV, and connect it via the micro usb cable (which attaches in the back of the ATV) to your computer, plug the ATV power cord into the wall and open iTUnes. You can click the Apple TV on the left side of iTunes and click restore--it will not take too long on a decent internet connection, and it will automatically install the software update (you have no choice on this, BTW, you can't go back to the previous software, as Apple only supplies the new software online (sadly).  Your ATV 3 should work and you can put it back to your TV and re-enter all your info and enjoy the new features. But if you are like me, you won't enjoy AirPlay, something seems to be wrong with that if you use an iPhone or iPad and have updated to IOS7--not sure which is the problem, or both, but be prepared for a little more frustration, but at least your ATV 3 will "work" mostly as it did before.
    I hope this helps, it is frustrating, but it is resolveable with a little bit of time--not that I'm happy about it, either.

  • Time machine not connecting with new time capsule

    Will someone please help? I have just recently joined the MAC family and purchased a new Macbook along with a new time capsule. It took unbelievably long to get things running (ie wireless access with 2 other PC based desktops and a PC laptop and shared network printing with an USB connected printer to the time capsule)- I thought macs were supposed to be easy?! Anyways, the only thing that I cannot figure out is how to properly set up time machine. I follow the instructions and turn time machine on, choose my backup disc (which is the time capsule), but when I click "use for backup", I keep getting the "connection failed- server may not exist or it is not operational at this time. Check the server name or IP address and your network connection and try again" What am I supposed to do now? What is there to check when all of the other computers are able to access the internet (including the Macbook) and wirelessly print. The stupid timecapsule router function is working but the backup portion of it is not???!!!! Please help someone who is about to give the mac and the time capsule to the first person walking down the street - it has been a frustrating 2 days.

    First, restart the Time Capsule by disconnecting the power adapter and reconnecting it. If other devices on the network can see it, you can skip this step.
    From the menu bar, select
               ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the window and authenticate to unlock the settings, if necessary. Click the Advanced button, then select the TCP/IP tab in the sheet that drops down. Click
              Renew DHCP lease.
    Try again to back up.
    If you still can't, open the Time Machine preference pane and delete the TC from the list of backup destinations. You may have to unlock the settings by clicking the lock icon in order to do this. Then add it back.

  • Photosmart C4780 won't work with new Time Capsule

    All of our household machines (2 MacBooks and 1 iMac) worked just fine to print wirelessly to our HP Photosmart C4780 with our time capsule, 1TB. The hard drive on that failed, and we replaced it with a new 2 TB model. Everything runs fine off the new wireless network except for the printer. The printer is not hooked to the Time Capsule, and I don't want it to be as it's in an odd location. The printer worked just fine before, off by itself in a corner, not hooked to any computers or Time Capsule. We are running OS 10.8 on 2 machines and OS 10.6 on another. I've read every troubleshooting article and community post I can find, trying everything, and no luck. I've restarted everything. I've reset the printer network settings. I've deleted all printers from the computers, but in every case, the printer cannot be detected on the wireless network. I run the Print & Scan utility in System Preferences, and the printer is not located. I run the HP Setup Assistant, and it can't find the printer. If I hook it up via USB to any machine it works fine, and I even tried running the HP Setup Assistant to setup wireless via USB, and that can't find the wireless network either. The Time Capsule is on all default settings, exept I changed the name and  password. Neither has any special characters. I tried the suggestion of channel 11 and that didn't work. I printed out the wireless network test report, and the Network Name (SSID) Found diagnostic failed. I printed out the HP Network Configuration Page and it says network Offline, URL for embedded web server is http://0.0.0.0, and the 802.11 Wireless status is Disconnected. At the bottom where it lists the Number of 802.11 networks discovered, my home wireless network is at the top of the list. I know wireless is enabled on my printer because I've disabled and enabled it, plus the blue light is on above the wireless icon.
    I cannot think of anything else to try and I'm about to launch the printer out the window! Please help in any way.

    You're close. After opening Airport Utility/TimeCapsule/Edit, look at the bar at the TOP of the page for Airport Utility, not at the top of the inset box. That Base Station drop down has the WP Printer option. I'm using 6.3.2. Try that.

  • HP 6500 printer not working anymore via Time Capsule

    I used a Linksys access point, and all my printers and Airport Express were working fine.
    But since I swapped my Linksys WRT160N v2 access point with the Apple Time Capsule, my HP 6500 printer cannot be installed anymore on my iMac.
    I have a very flat network :
    Telenet router connected to internet, other side : wired Time Capsule (and then wireless to my iMac, iPhones, iPad and Airport Express), wired ethernet switch with wired Brother Laser printer and wired HP 6500 printer.  All having fixed IP addresses (except of course the iPhones and iPad). 
    When adding the HP printer the iMac system finds the printer as "Officejet 6500 E710n-z (59F608)", but gives an error "Unable to communicate with the printer".
    And to make it totally weird : I'm perfectly able to address the printer from the iMac via ip address in Safari !!
    No double IP addresses are used in the network : swapped the network already several times with different tools.
    Regaring the Airport Express, I cannot set it up again, the light flashes and is not recognised anymore.
    My biggest concern is the HP printer ... weird ...
    Please advise !
    tx a million

    Did you completely remove all earlier instances of the printer and even its drivers. If not do so.. after reboot of the iMac download direct from HP any new drivers they may have and reinstall. We have seen it on other occasions.. it is very stubborn if it has any previous setup or drivers.
    When you swap the two routers.. are you keeping the old IP addressing scheme.. ie moving TC from its default 10.0.1.1 to the Linksys standard 192.168.1.1 .. as occasionally again.. devices can sometimes be finiky off their default.

  • Apple TV not working with new 23" cinema display

    OK so I finally found a functional use for my new Apple TV, which has been sitting unused in my living room. My MacBook Pro already connects to the HD projector in there, so Mac TV is just less functionality and redundant.
    I decided the only use I have for a keyboardless Mac interface for just music, podcasts, photos, and videos is the bathtub.
    Being the Mac fanboy that I am, I wanted the solution to be all Apple.
    So I headed down to my local Apple Store with the intention of buying a new 23" Cinema Display for my Apple TV and an iPod HiFi for the sound. I was dismayed to see them showing off the Apple TV on Sony LCD TVs. Why wouldn't Apple want to sell people a triple-play package and have it set up as a demo? After all, they weren't selling the Sony TVs anyway.
    But my first sign of trouble was the very nice store employee who didn't know if the Apple TV would work on a cinema display. But he definitely wanted to find out when I got home. Searching here, I found posts that seem to confirm that it would work, but the actual source is related to an older ADC cinema display, not the new ones.
    I set everything up and used a Toslink-minijack adapter to run the optical digital audio from the Apple TV to the iPod Hifi. I used an HDMI-DVI-D adapter to connect the cinema display to the Apple TV. I powered it all up.
    I got the white Apple logo on the screen, then everything went black. I used the Menu and + keys on the remote for 6 seconds to cycle through the resolutions. Still all black. I used the Menu and - keys on the remote to reset to factory settings. Again booted into blackness.
    Interestingly, while using the + and - keys on the Apple TV remote, the iPod HiFi volume was lowered and raised simultaneously with the moving of the menu selections in Apple TV (I could hear the clicks). What this means is, 2 remotes, each paired to each device, will be needed for proper operation. This is why having too simple a remote is lame.
    At this point I am dead in the bathtub water. I drop more money on Apple than it costs to get a new iMac (which is plan B) just so I can give the Apple TV a shot in my bathroom. But it all doesn't fit seemlessly together on first try.
    Any suggestions? Could the HDMI-DVI-D adapter be blocking the HDCP signal needed to display an image? Is DVI-D the wrong adapter to use? Any help is appreciated.

    I've not been convinced a monitor will work with the tv, but I have to accept the word of those that have had success. I'm not so certain that a monitor is a suitable first choice, maybe if you have one lying around OK, but to buy one instead of a tv is not only a very expensive alternative but even if it works you will have no way of controlling the brightness etc.
    Any suggestions? Could the HDMI-DVI-D adapter be blocking the HDCP signal needed to display an image? Is DVI-D the wrong adapter to use?
    Possibly, Did you ever manage to repeat getting the apple logo or indeed anything even if only for a few seconds. DVI-D or DVI-I would be the right connector, don't use a DVI-A

  • I used the protection plan on my iMac, but it is not working for my Time Capsule...

    I recently bought the Apple Care Protection Plan and I got my iMac registered for it.  However, I cannot get my Time Capsule, purchased months before the Protection Plan, registered.  I did type the serial numbers of both the Plan and the device correctly, but the site cannot register the Time Capsule, I keep getting a system error.  Is there a way that I can get the Plan on my Time Capsule too?  I could buy another Plan, but I don't think I should spend another $200.00 if it's not necessary.  Can anyone explain why my Time Capsule cannot be registered with the plan?

    That's correct; it's covered, but you can't register it separately for some reason.  (I went through this with Apple a couple of years ago myself.)
    Just keep your receipts, preferably with the serial number, in case you ever have a problem.

  • My MacBook Pro's  airport Utility will not recognize my new time capsule.

    My name is Sam. I am not very computer savvy, but I am trying everything I can to get this time capsule to work. I have a MacBook Pro that has been getting the internet via a DSL connection. I am using a Versa Express VER170P dsl modem. I do NOT get wireless internet with this router. I bought the time capsule based on advice that I would be able to use it to get internet wirelessly in my condo. I have plugged the printer into the usb port, I have plugged my internet cord into the WAN slot and plugged the power cord into the wall. The TC shows the green light, but my Airport utility just scans indefinitely never finding it. Can anyone help? If so, please use basic terms. =)
    Thanks,
    Sam

    Hi and welcome to the discussions.
    The green light is a good sign so far.
    Try connecting an ethernet cable from one of the LAN ports (there are 3 of them)on your Time Capsule directly to your MacBook Pro and then see if this helps AirPort Utility locate your Time Capsule to you can configure it.
    If no luck, try shutting down your system and restarting. Modem first for a few minutes, then Time Capsule until you have the green light, then your computer.
    Once you have the Time Capsule configured, and you are ready to make your first backup, keep the ethernet connection to Time Capsule as there is a lot of data to be copied and it will go faster and more reliably with this connection. Subsequent backups will normally be much smaller and quicker, so you could use wireless for these if your prefer.

  • Facebook app not working since new update

    Ever since I installed the new update for the phone about 2 weeks ago my FB app won't work anymore. It pops up with an error message. It's the FB app that came with the phone. I can still access everything else. I'm also having more trouble with my advanced task killer since the update. Everytime I open it theres a ton of apps running that I haven't touched so I switched my settings to the "crazy" auto-kill level but it's still not working. Help please...

    For Facebook,  search the market for Facebook for Android.  This is the updated version of the stock Facebook.  It will save over the Facebook app that is currently installed(it won't erase your data) plus this will alert you when there are new app updates.
    For your tasktiller, Froyo has a decent task killer built in.  There are always small tasks that happen in the background for different apps.  I find that my battery lasts a little longer after I uninstall advanced task killer.
    I hope this helped. Have a good day.
