Apple tv not working with panosonic TH-50PX75U old.

Apple tv not working with a 3-4 year old Panasonic TH50PX75U tv, works fine on all other tv's in the house. HDMI cables seem to be fine they work with the DVD and DVR. Ratio is set to auto, apple logo on screen when booting up then Goes away. Seen twice for a split,nano second the apple tv menu on screen. Then in upper left corner of tv a grey box appears with HDMI 2 appears. any help would be great... Thanks in advance, Tom

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.

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

Apple tv not working with my tv

I have 3 TVs at home,and apple tv is only working with one tv,I have tried everything with the other 2 TVs but it's not working

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check that the HDMI cable is correctly seated at both ends.
Try disconnecting the cable and connecting it again.
Try another HDMI cable.
Make sure your TV supports 720p
Make sure your TV supports HDCP

Apple Mail not working with IMAP account

I have been using Entourage for my email with several IMAP email accounts. SOme of the accounts I was getting occasional errors so I thought I would try Apple Mail.
I am able to successfully set up the accounts in Mail (i.e. it successfully logs into server) however it does not get any of the mail nor does it get any of the mail folders that are on the IMAP server (viewing email using Web Mail or even going back to Entourage shows the emails on the account). Are there any special (hidden) tricks that I need to do to get Mail to work with a standard IMAP mail server?

I have a very similar problem. Apparently IMAP access is better than POP3. Well IMAP slows my Mac to a complete stop whereas POP3 is seamless. I deleted my POP3 mailboxes after successfully accessing my GMail accounts via IMAP, then it slowed down.
I've deleted the IMAP accounts a few times, but each time a new account is created it forces me to accept IMAP with no option for POP3. The help file also contains no information on POP3.
I get about 50 emails everyday and my usual point of email access has just become redundant, I must now rely on email via my browser and .
I made this change because the iPhone does not sync downloaded emails with Apple Mail. In Mail on my Mac, the one GMail inbox I have setup says there are 11 unread which it eventually shows yet none appear unread. I'll have to rely on web-based email until this is resolved.
Can anyone help with these IMAP access problems?

Non Apple Apps not working with Not.Centre

I've restored my iphone 4 twice now, each time I've started a new phone and gone through the set up on the phone. I've tested my mail app, messages app and reminders app and they work faultless with Not.Centre but when I downloaded Twitter Inc. from the app store and got an @ reply, I didn't get a notification. I've gone through all the settings, in both the Settings App and even within Twitter itself and have TURNED ON all notifications but still nothing.
I'm not going to restore again, it's just a waste of time. Does anybody have a fix for this?
Cheers.

Hi Groovy32,
So after the iOS update all Apple apps work fine but no non-Apple apps work? I just updated my iPhone 6 Plus last night and haven't seen an issue so let's go further with troubleshooting as in
If an app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open - Apple Support
For example, check for App updates, try installing another app or deleting and reinstalling one that's not working.

Apple tv not working with itunes match

I bought Apple Tv last week and also bought the Itunes match , but whenever i open music on my apple tv , it says
"Itunes Match "
" Setting up your apple tv to stream music from itunes match . This may take a few minutes,depending on the size of your library and internet connection speed "
i have already turned on itunes match on my Apple Tv and computer . Still its not working .

I had a similar issue. As of September 29, 2014. After setting up iTunes Match on my Mac through iTunes, iTunes Match was not working on Apple TV. The weird thing was that it worked on my iPhone 5 and Late 2013 iMac. Strangely Apple TV was the newest device. I and the newest OSs available for all my devices (iMac, iPhone and Apple TV - either OS X 10.9.5 and/or iOS 8.0.2).
I called Apple Support and spoke with someone who had me log out of and back into my Apple account through Apple TV. I was then prompted to activate iTunes Match on Apple TV (3rd Generation).
That fixed the problem for me.
Be advised that you need to remember your Apple TV password in order to sign back in. Apple TV does not cache Apple ID passwords.
I suggested to the Rep that they need to make the process much simpler via a way to Refresh iTunes or, at least, add Keychain to Apple TV so that I did not have to go through this again. I suggest other users make the same requests through Apple Feedback for Apple TV.

APPLE CHARGER NOT WORKING WITH IOS5

Hello,
      Upgraded ipad 1 to ios5. Apple charger, A1357, no longer works.
     I get this message:    "not charging" in upper right corner.
     When I use my tripp lite power strip with usb port, I get : Charging is not supported with this acessory.
     It will be hard to use this ipad if I cannot hook it up to power.
     18% power remaining.

I should add that the tripp lite charger was working before as well.

Apple WiFi not working with pc

My airport extreme 802.11n wifi works fine with my apple products but I also need to use with my pc and that is not working. Any ideas?

First, does your PC have any issues connecting to other Wi-Fi networks or just the one being provided by the AirPort Extreme?
If just the Extreme, what is its current wireless encryption set for? WEP, WPA, or WPA2. Can the PC's wireless and operating system support all of these?

Apple Remote not working with Mac Mini

Hi there,
I woke up to quite a strange problem today... My Apple Remote is no longer working with my Mac Mini! I tried all the controls, including launching front row, and the volume controls - but no go...
I even tried it in Windows BootCamp under iTunes, but it still wouldn't work..
I tried pairing it in System preferences, but again, it wouldn't recognise my apple remote when i held down the Menu+fast forward keys for 5 seconds...
The weird thing is, it works fine with my iMac on another floor (out of plain sight from my Mini..), and it isn't paired with the iMac or anything...
Any idea what the problem might be? Thanks in advance!

So you got a dead remote or a dead battery. Call AppleCare and it will be taken care of. What's the big deal? These things happen from time to time.

Apple id not working with ipod

I'm getting really frustrated. My Apple ID is NOT working for my ipod touch. Yet no problems on my iphone and ipad. Always getting the error "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again"
My network is just fine. Anyone have ideas as to what might be the problem and how I can resolve this??

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- Try when connected to another network

Apple mail not working with cox

it stopped working on the MBP and the ipad. Got it working working with Cox on the MBP (but) the ipad smtp authentication on the ipad does not have a selection of NONE which cox requires. Anybody solved this? My wife is having the same problem on her ipad. She has a new ipad mini and I have the old ipad one.
Thanks

You can't have no SMTP server, mail wouldn't work. You need to have something. If I recall correctly, I used to be in a Cox internet area up until a couple of years ago, you have to use their outgoing SMTP server. It's not very hard to do.
Setttings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Accounts (iCloud)>Account>Advanced(Mail)>Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)>Add Server>Put in host name (mail.cox.net, I believe) without user name or password.
That should work.
