Apple TV on display times out

Apple TV display times out after a period of time.

Hi TonyWash,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Is the Apple TV timing out while you are Home Sharing, using Airplay with a device, or working directly from the Apple TV menu? Without knowing the specifics, I'll provide some basic troubleshooting for your Apple TV:
One of the first troubleshooting steps is on Page 26 of the Apple TV User Guide:
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1607/en_US/apple_tv_3rd_gen_setup.pdf
Try resetting your equipment by disconnecting Apple TV, your TV, your wireless networking equipment or base station, and your router
from the power outlet. Wait 30 seconds, and then reconnect everything.
Additional troubleshooting steps can be found here:
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

I hope this information helps ....

Under Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and Boot Camp, my 27 inch Apple LED Cinema Display checks out as a Generic PnP Monitor and is shown as NOT HDCP compliant. I haven't been able to find any kind of an .inf file to use. Does anyone have a solution?

Under Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and Boot Camp, my 27 inch Apple LED Cinema Display checks out as a Generic PnP Monitor and is shown as NOT HDCP compliant. I haven't been able to find any kind of an .inf file to use. Does anyone have a solution? Or is Apple's implementation of HDCP (if it's there) incomplete?

I am having this same issue. Im not sure if this is the cause but I think this is keeping PowerDVD Ultra 11 from playing back Bluray under Windows 7 / Bootcamp

Apple Mail fetch repeatedly times out

This is not a specific Lion problem but has continued under Lion, it's related to Apple Mail. On each of our 4 Macs our mail fetch from our ISP frequently times out on all POP email accounts, repeatedly asking for a password even though the password is clearly stored in Mail preferences and Keychain. Sometimes I find that the POP email passwords are deleted from Mail, although they are always there in the Keychain. It only happens with POP, not IMAP etc. Needless to say our ISP has been vague and unhelpful. Any suggestions?

Even if it happens from outside their network, your mail still uses the same settings for servers and ports as to what you put into the settings. So, it's still routed through them regardless of the network your on. That why I suggested it may be the cause. Like I said, the same problem went on with ATT for many months.
There were many thoughts also on how mac mail was talking to the ISP, but in my case wasn't the problem. If you open up connection doctor in mail and test the connections from time to time, it failed in many cases. Sometimes, it failed constantly.
And since you've said it happens outside your network, that should eliminate your router.
So, you may want to talk with your ISP support group and ask them if they are making any changes to ports or servers. And if you haven't, check their website and search for mail server and port settings for mac to make sure you have the latest.
And I do understand that it's probably a wasted effort because most of the time they won't know what's going on.
I feel your pain.

Apple TV Video Signal Times Out

That's the best way I can describe it. Since installing the latest firmware (allowing rentals, new UI, etc.) if I turn off my TV (panasonic plasma) then turn it back on after a couple of hours the monitor reads "no signal". The only way to get it back (that I've found) is to reboot my Apple TV. I'm using HDMI out for the video connection (direct to monitor) and fiber for the audio (to receiver).
Anyone seeing this behavior and/or know a better solution than unplugging and plugging in the apple TV unit over and over?

Thanks for the reply. Neither switching the TV input nor the apple TV remote will 'wake up' the apple TV signal. The only thing that seems to work is power cycling the apple TV.
An example: Before this last SW update I could turn off my TV and receiver (say after watching a movie), come back in a couple of hours, turn the TV and receiver back on and there would be my apple TV screen saver and I could nav around etc. Now, when I turn everything back on I just get the 'no signal' indicator on my TV - nothing I've found short of power cycling will bring it back.
Any other thoughts?

Ichat times out when trying to sign in

I am in Europe for the year and haven't been able to get my ichat to sign on in my new apartment. I am not good with computers and do not know where to begin with trouble shooting this problem. I have done a lot of reading on sign in problems, but I don't know enough about my internet/computer configuration to make changes. iChat does work when I try to sign on at a different location (university), so I don't think the problem is with the program itself.
This is what I know:
I am using built-in Ethernet TCP/IP that I have configured manually. Other than iChat (or my apple mail which also times out before succesfully signing in), my internet works without problems. Following iChat help, I tried to ports on my firewall, but the firewall wasn't activated.
Any help you can give me is most appreciated. This is really driving me crazy.
Thanks!

Hi!
Thank you so much for your help! Changing the port on iChat did the trick. Perhaps that is the problem that is happening with my mail as well. You don't happen to have another suggestion about which port I should use to correct that problem, do you? Thanks again for the help, it is much appreciated!
Best!

Downloading 2.2.1 update times out and error message

Trying to download 2.2.1 update. It says it will take 2 hours (about 220 MB). Then about 45 minutes into download it says session has timed out. Check network connection or try again later.
Anyone know how I can remedy this and complete download?
Thanks!
Charlie

Another question. When it says "try again later". Would the download be faster if I tried in the middle of the night when/if the apple site is not so busy? Or am I totally off the mark and that has nothing to do with the time issue?
Is 2 hours normal for the 220 mg 2.2.1 download? Is there a reason the connection times out after 45 minutes of a 2 hr. download? Is that the apple site doing the time out or my ISP?
Sorry for all the questions. There are apps I want to download that need the 2.2.1 and I am only at my buddies house with WiFi on the weekends.
Thanks,
Charlie

New Display coming out with a higher contrast ratio & response time?

Is there a New 30" or better Display coming out with a higher contrast ratio & response time?
I'm very used to using crt monitors and the quality of the current 30inch is nice but blacks are not quite as black and colors are not as rich.
Apple seems to be right on with what they have. Just hoping for an update to their displays soon.
Thanks ahead for your reply.

Apple reseller in Sydney today said that new Apple HD displays are 6- 8 weeks away and that Apple is running down stocks of the existing displays.
No idea of the veracity of this claim, just what I was told.

HT5219 Apple thunderbolt display blacks out and blinks

Hi,
I have a macbook pro (2.5GHz Intel core i7, 16GB RAM and 10.8.5) for which I use Apple Thunderbolt display as my extended monitor and almost everyday after connecting my external monitor for 3 or 4 hours, Apple thunderbolt display blacks out and starts blinking or displaying weird colors on every blink.
To stop it from doing that, I have to disconnect and reconnect my thunderbolt display.
Is this is universal problem or something wrong with my macbook pro ?

I've got two 27" Thunderbolt displays hooked up to my Mac Pro. Both displays blank out irregularly multiple times per hour.
I've exchanged one of the displays for a brand new display and the problem continues.
I've updated both displays using the firmware update a few months back and the problem continues.
I'm using separate Thunderbolt cables rather than the built-in cables and the problem continues.
Bullocks.

Displaying "Your Session is going to time out , Extend or Close" dialog ?

Hi!
we have a requirement to display a warning message to users just (1 minute) before the session is going to time out, and ask the user if he wants to extend the session or close the session( in which case we close the browser window). We have come up with a probable solution but would like to know what other people are doing/will do in similar scenarios.
Here is what we came up with:
1. On every page load we set/update a cookie which is meant to track the session time out. And we have a javascript timer that counts down user's inactivity. If any PPR occurs on the page, then we plan to add a hook to the PPR javascript calls so that we can update the time out cookie not only on page load/refreash but also on every PPR call made to the server.
We have a worry that we are doing everything on the client side solely depending on javascript.Is our approach in the right direction? Is there any better way to achieve the same? Are there any pitfalls/security issues involved in our design?
2. I have read in some articles/forum threads that we can poll the server on a regualr interval to find out the time remaining for the session to expire and once we get time to last minute we can display a javascript popup to the user. But I have a doubt that wouldn't polling itself refresh the user activity on the server and reset the session timeout to normal on every poll? In that case wouldn't we always get the same time-remaining info for every poll? Have I mis-understood some thing here? can some one explain how to implement the session time out based on polling to the server?
3. Any new ideas are welcome!
Thanks and Regards,
Samba

Hi,
well, if you use the af:poll command then the session will never expire because from a server point of view the user frequently sends a request. So if you prefer this option then you will have to expire the session programmatically calling invalidate() on the session
javaScript is the only option I can imagine that works without polling.

HT204053 Our family has several apple devices, iPad, touch, and now iMac, our original iTunes are all under a different apple id. do we keep our own accounts even in cloud? do we all have access to each others media? (First time out with all this..)

Our family has several apple devices, iPad, touch, and now iMac, our original iTunes are all under a different apple id. do we keep our own accounts even in cloud? do we all have access to each others media? (First time out with all this..)

There is no problem about using one ID for iTunes, iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match, and another for iCloud and its email and syncing facilities. This way you can all use the same iTunes account but have separate emails and calendars etc.

Can't get anymore brightness out of Older 23" Apple Cinema HD Display

Hey guys,
So I'm trying to match an older monitor (Apple Cinema Display HD 23" circa 2002-04...I know) to a newer iMac.
Currently attached using ADC->DVI->Thunderbolt.
In comparison, the iMac is much brighter. I'm guessing due to the fact that it's newer and sexier.
So just wondering if there's anyway to get anymore brightness out of the older monitor or has it reached its limitations? I've set the brightness as high as it can go via display preferences.
I know these are completely diferrent displays and decades of release, just wondering if I'm missing something.
If only I could afford that 4K...
Thanks for your help!

The Apple Cinema Display requires Mac OS X v10.2 or later, and one of the following systems:
—Power Mac G4 with an NVIDIA GeForce2 MX, GeForce3, GeForce4 MX, or GeForce4 Titanium graphics card; or with an ATI Radeon 7500, 9000 Pro, or 9700 Pro graphics card.
No connection problems- ADC or DVI
No resolution problems- 1920x1200 will show after connected
