apple tv showing wire to connect to itunes via mini usb cable which i dont have?

You need to get the cable to restore the ATV to factory settings, following the procedure here.
USB mini cables are available from many different sources; often even from local stores like CVS or Walgreens. They are inexpensive, as little as a few dollars online & around $5 from some local discount stores.

  • Software update failure, now phone frozen. Now screen only showing itunes logo and USB Cable on screen. Have I lost my backup?

    I just tried updating the most recent software on my 3GS (on my Mac) but it said the updated on my phone failed. Now my phone is frozen and only showing the itunes logo and USB cable. When I connect to the USB lead, its says: iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes.
    Have I lost all the data on my phone?
    What should I do?

  • Connecting my Touch via the USB cable

    I am connecting the Touch to my car via the usb cable as it has a built in ipod app. The car recognises the Touch and I can access all the menus and songs, select what I want to play and play the song, all from the car controls. The only problem is that the music plays from the Touch instead of through the car. Any ideas? It is a 32Gb Ipod Touch running 3.1.3. Any help appreciated.

    What Carolyn says is correct. You can, however, share an Internet connection with your iPhone wirelessly by turning in Internet sharing (found in System Preferences > Sharing.) If your MacBook Pro is already using a wireless connection, you can just connect to the same wireless network it is using.
    Best of luck.

  • The error message says that iPad cannot connect to iTunes because of a passcode, but I dont have a passcode.

    Please Help Me!!! I am really stuck.
    So I recently got an iPad 2 and everything was fine until I tried plugging it into my computer (which I didnt do when I got it). I had a passcode on it and the error message said that it cannot connect because of the passcode, so I unlocked it and hit try again and same error message. I then disabled the passcode and it still wont connect. Ive tried turning the computer off and back on, also tried turning the iPad on and back on. NOTHING IS WORKING!!! It is really frustrating because I need it for my study and it wont connect through iTunes, and because of that it wont connect to the computer at all!!! Please help me here, my partner and I are usually really good with this kind of suff and we cant work this out.. It has never happened to us before.. Please Help!!!!!

    If you cannot access the iPad because of the passcode, you have no choice but to restore it using the same steps that you would use if you forgot the passcode.

  • ATV3 not connecting to iTunes via micro USB

    So I have connected my micro USB to the ATV3 and Widows 8.1 installed driver software in order recognize, but it won't show in "This PC" or even in iTunes itself. I do have the power cord plugged into the ATV3 when trying to connect to PC. So why can't I see it?

    I'm assuming you followed the specific power instructions here:
    Restoring your Apple TV - Apple Support
    If so, try again with any superfluous USB devices/hubs disconnected.
    Also possible you have a power only microUSB cable that is used for charging but which does not tramsnit data.

    There is no where for the upgrade to 'Light Up'...I don't know what that means.  Once your phone is recognized, you can manually select 'Check for Update' if it isn't automatically prompting you.

    you could try forcing it into recovery mode by turning it off, hold the home button and plug it into iTunes at the same time, keep holding the home button until iTunes says its detected a device that needs to be updated or restored. Then restore.

  • My ipod is showing a disabled connect to itunes.  When I try to get support Apple asks for my serial number-but I can't do anything.

    My ipod touch is showing a disabled connect to itunes message.  I've tried to get some support on itunes, however, I can not turn the ipod on to get the serial number.

    Apple shuld not be required.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • Hi, i am having a problem in my ipad 2 , it is not showing main screen just showing a black blank screen in which downloading icon is only shwn which is continously and when i connect to itunes via windows 7 it showing this error (0xE8000065) can any one

    hi, i am having a problem in my ipad 2 , it is not showing main screen just showing a black blank screen in which downloading icon is only shwn which is continously and when i connect to itunes via windows 7 it showing this error (0xE8000065) can any one

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • Apple TV not able to connect to iTunes, try again later

    Is anyone receiving the message their Apple TV receiver cannot connect to iTunes and to try again later? I have the latest update and own a 3rd generation unit. this only occurs trying to play movies or shows I own. My music plays fine. On a side note even when my movies do play, I mostly receibe errors trying to play movies on the first try. I usually have to exit out to main menu and try again. It usually will play on a second attempt. Anyone else have this issue? It's just frustrating when you can't always access a movie you own. I guess that's the gamble with digital copies.

    The funny thing is all my other apps such as youtube and Netflix workEd perfectly fine during this time. Even after I said it was working, only a couple movies were playing. Others still couldn't connect. Had to do a second restart and a reboot on my phone. Strange

    Hello TommyElMorte,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    I recommend conncting the iPhone to the wall charger that it came with, and then reset it.
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • HT1551 Have not used Apple tv for ages,plugged in light flashing,screen is showing iTunes logo and USB cable

    Plugged in my Apple tv to tv and light flashing non stop.Tv screen showing iTunes logo and USB cable.Not responding to anything

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.
