Apple tv so slow playing movies from iTunes

What can I do to speed up my ATV when I play movies stored on my Mac Book (iTunes)?
This never was an issue, and now it loads and loads.  rebooting, unplugging and restarting the router/modem/ATV/Mac still doesn't work?
I saw a similar thread, but no apple experts added any comments so I thought I would try again.

That would indicate an issue with your wireless network. I would check for interference using istumbler as that is the most common, and especially since the one connected via Ethernet is fine

  • Problems playing movie from itunes

    when showing a movie from itunes on my LCD projector I receive the following message This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).

    Greetings out2sea5,
    In order to play HD video content purchased from iTunes all the components of your system, including your projector, must support the HDCP standard. See this article for reference -

  • Playing movies from iTunes store on another computer

    I am admittedly new to iTunes, but I was wondering if I can access my purchases on another computer? Or is what I downloaded from the store only downloaded onto one specific computer and inaccessible again from the store without repurchasing it? I downloaded a few movies onto my mac but I wanted to burn the movies from my Dell onto a DVD. Can I do that without saving the movies from my mac onto a flash drive and transferring the files to my Dell?

    To view on another computer you need to transfer the file to the other computer. Add the file to iTunes on that computer. If iTunes on the second computer is authorized with the same account as the first one, the file will play.

  • Apple TV won't stream movies from itunes since installing latest update

    I recently updated my Apple TV and have since been unable to stream movies from my iTunes library. Itunes and all other software is up to date. I even downloaded Mountain Lion OS just in case. Netflix and movie trailers work fine. Streaming from my computer seems to be the only problem.

    I have since purchased a new apple tv which had worked fine until the update was offered. I downloaded the update and the problem happens again on a brand new machine.
    Since then I have spent 2 hrs on the phone with apple without results. Followed by an hour on the phone with Linksys checking network issues. I was just wondering if this is a problem for anyone else? It's not a single device so it has to be a problem with the update intalled.
    Linksys believes the update corrupted the apple tv's firmware. Has anyone else been experiencing problems?

  • Apple TV 3 not playing music from iTunes Match.

    Hi Peeps,
    I am unable to access music on iTunes Match on ATV 3.  However Match works fine on my Windows based PC and my iPhone 5.
    I can see all albums and artwork on ATV 3 but when I select to play I get "An error occurred loading this content". Netflix and other app previews etc work fine.
    The software is up to date and I have tried restoring and re-booting with no success.
    Can anyone help???

    Hi Winston,
    Thanks for getting back to me my problem is playinhg music from ATV3
    I have tried restarting the router but no change.
    However the ATV3 has the artist, cover artwork etc. but does not seem to be able to play (stream) and I still get the error message.
    My iphone and PC currently play music from Match on the same network as the ATV3. I am even able to airplay music from laptop to ATV3 but not directly from ATV3.
    So thanks for your help but this has not fixed the problem. I have never had these problems before.

  • Apple Genius Deleted my Play Counts from iTunes

    Today I went to the apple store to fix why my music wasn't syncing between my iPad and Macbook Pro.  Well they clicked something and it deleted all my playcounts.  Shows none of my music has been played since March 2013.  What a disappointment.  I don't know if there is anyway to go back and undo this, does anyone know?

    Having the same problem.  Not all of my play counts are reset but about 100 have been 'adjusted' downward, some to zero.  Last played data show the date they were played but counts are off.  I had just synced with iTunes Match, deleted a track that wouldn't play, 'this computer is not authorized to play this song', and redownloaded the track.  Subsequently, a playlist that was only populated with that particular track suddenly had ~100 additional songs listed.  Pretty frustrating.

  • Apple tv won't stream movies from itunes

    I have just setup my Apple tv and it was working fine, but then I synced it with my macbook via ethernet and now the apple tv says it's not connected to itunes. However, when we go into settings it does say the network is connected, signal strength is strong. Please help.

    I'd hang fire for a while, it looks like iTMS Australia is having some issues currently.

  • Apple TV won't load or play movies from my MBP library (through both airplay and homesharing), but will from my mac mini. Help!

    I have been using my apple TV seamlessly with all my apple products (Mac Mini, iphone, MBP, ipad). Everything worked perfectly until recently (I noticed the issue about 3 weeks ago), when the apple TV won't load and play any movies from my iTunes library located on my MBP. The Library loads, and I can see everything, but as soon as I press play, the spinning load icon appears and doesn't stop. Same when I play movie from itunes directly and send it via airplay. Desktop mirroring no problem.
    I have checked, and films are being played perfectly from my other devices, as does airplay and mirroring

    Hello Tourneurm,
    Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.
    This article might be of use for your issue.
    Troubleshooting Home Sharing

    Section 8 seems to be most applicable.
    8. Cannot access my library when my computer is asleep
    For Apple TV to access your library while the host computer is asleep, "Wake for network access" must be turned on.
    Open System Preferences > Energy Saver and select (enable) the "Wake for network access" option.
    In addition, the network that the host computer and the Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation) is connected to must support Wake on Demand feature. This works by partnering with a service running on your AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule called Bonjour Sleep Proxy.

  • Streaming HD movies from Itunes to Apple TV 2

    Hello all,
    I am having an issue streaming HD (m4v) movies from iTunes to my Apple TV 2. First off, I am able to stream Netflix flawlessly using my Apple TV. The HD Movies from ITunes glitches\lags every 20-25 seconds. Here is my setup.
    Router: Apple Airport Extreme, using 5ghz band
    Laptop: Macbook Pro
    Any suggestions? I have tried turning off Dolby Digital in the Apple TV Settings, but did not help.
    Thanks,
    Dustin

    I was having the same error. I switched Audio Language to default and Dolby Digital to 'on' and I finally can see the video, but with no sound...
    I tried MKVTools and Handbrake, AC3 passthru for audio on both, iTunes plays nice, but Apple TV doesn't. Any other solution?
