Apple tv search turns sound on iTunes
issue: search on AppleTV engages iTunes to play music on my computer.
troubleshooting step: tried muting the computer, and Apple TV search overrides the mute, and the sound comes back on for music.
• is there a setting in preferences for iTunes, AppleTV or System Preferences that needs to be turned off?
specs:
itunes version 12.0.1.26
OS 10.9.5 Mavericks
2010 MacBook
2012 Apple TV
the new appletv is not supposed to show up in itunes, it uses HomeSharing to connect to itunes.
you cannot sync anything to the new appletv as it has no user storage, everything has to stream to it.
the new appletv has no music store as you cannot buy anything on it, you can only rent movies and tv shows.

My Apple TV controller turns on the iTunes on my Mac.
My Apple TV controller activates ITunes on my Mac. When I am navigating thru Netflix this is very annoying to have music coming on & off, I don't have home sharing enabled. Is there a trick to stopping this?
Yes, turn off the infrared receiver of your Mac in System Preferences. Your Mac is responding to the remote.
The option to turn it off is in the System security settings panel. -
Hello can some please help I am trying to watch my HBO go on my apple tv I have sound no picture. I can watch my iTunes videos and youtube on my airplay with my ipad and everything is updated so I know it works. But not on HBO go, Max go, showtime go.
What you want to do does not work with an iPd running iOS 5. See the screenshot.
The latest update for HBO GO does allow for AirPlay on Apple TV - sound and video - but only on devices running iOS 6 and Apple TV running 5.1.1 or later - according to the app description. -
iPod nano 3rd gen. Apple logo remains on screen and iTunes doesn't recognise it's plugged in, I can't even turn it off. I've tried to get to disc menu but when I hold the 'menu and select button' it reboots and then doesn't recognise the select and play button to show the tick. I'm helpless.
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.

I have just reset my my iPhone 4s and it is stuck on the apple screen, not being recognised by iTunes and fully charged, any ideas how to get it to turn on properly?
Hi Cjroyle,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand that your iPhone will not boot past the Apple logo on the screen. To troubleshoot this issue I'd like you to please follow the steps in the article below.

I have 2 apple tv's but my playlists only show up on one; can I get them to show up on both? I have home sharing turned on and itunes match.
If you are attempting to share to both at the same time, you can't.
Are you selecting the second AppleTV in home sharing options on the MBP. Are all devices signed in for Home Sharing with the same AppleID?
You will also find some additional things to check here: Troubleshooting Home Sharing -

I'm all Mac across the board: iPhone 5, Macbook Pro, Apple TV etc. I can't get the movies I've purchased on my Apple TV to appear in my iTunes library for viewing… Any suggestions? I have iTunes Match turned on and everything.
Thanks Terence! I can see iTunes library from neither iPhoto or iMovie . I'll check on iTunes forum.

You mention doing all of the above, what would that be exactly?

Apple TV says turn on homesharing on computer to access my music library. When I go to the menu in iTunes it says turn off homesharing. So homesharing is on but it won't work. Why ?

When using spotlight search my phone will not show all text messages with a common word even though I have not deleted any messages from my phone and I have the message search turned on in settings under spotlight search. The search only shows the messages that are recent within the past day or so. Why won't it show the other messages when I search for them even using a specific word that I know was in the message I'm searching for.
Hello ChiomaM,
It sounds like you are not getting notifications for new text messages that are coming in, and you must manually check the app. I recommend checking the Notification settings to see if they are configured correctly:
iOS: Understanding notifications
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
iOS apps can provide three types of notifications:
Sounds: An audible alert plays.
Alerts/Banners: An alert or banner appears on the screen.
Badges: An image or number appears on the application icon.
You can view which apps provide notifications and adjust notification settings using Settings > Notification Center. For additional information, refer to the user guide for your device.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

No sound in itunes or firefox after upgrade imac
I have just upgraded to OS X Yosemite and now I have no sound in itunes or Firefox, its playing in Safari and skype and local programs
Hello katecurr,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with system audio. You may want to consider a PRAM reset to address the issues you've described:
A small amount of your computer’s memory, called “parameter random-access memory” or PRAM, stores certain settings in a location that OS X can access quickly. The particular settings that are stored depend on your type of Mac and the types of devices connected to it. The settings include your designated startup disk, display resolution, speaker volume, and other information.
Note: To print these instructions, open Help Viewer’s Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear), then choose Print.
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Option, Command (⌘), P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on your Mac.
Immediately press and hold the Option-Command-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.Continue holding the keys down until your Mac restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
