Apple TV strange display prob when in iTunes

Have a strange problem tonight. Looking on iTunes for a movie as soon as I went into the movie purchase/rent/trailer screen it kept going black or flickering screen.
It didn't happen on main screen but happened in all iTunes screens!?! Reset, unplugged AppleTV but the same. The settings haven't changed or anything for that matter
anyone have similiar problem? Very confused. TV is fine as normal TV etc ok
anyone? It's connected by HDMI to a 720P TV

How can it only happen n iTunes store bit though? Why does the handshake HDCP only affect my TV then not in main menu etc?
It's interesting that you have this problem with the replacement ATV on one of your TVs but not the other, and I'm assuming that you didn't have it with the original ATV. It's this kind of inconsistency in performance from one unit to the next that leads me to suspect fundamental problems with the ATV design itself.
In any case, you should call AppleCare again. The amount of work an ATV owner has to go through to get them to work properly is absurd. Apple should be ashamed of this product. Make them replace it again, and keep doing so until you get one that works as advertised.

  • HELP"apple application support not found when installing itunes after a hard drive crash and replace

    HELP"   error "apple application support not found" when downloading itunes after a hard drive crash and replacement????

    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Strange error message when starting ITunes, ITunes doesn't recognise devices for wifi sync

    I have other wifi problems with my IMac running Mountain Lion but this is the most annoying. When I start ITunes it doesn't recognise that I have my IPhone 5 and my IPad 2 sitting connected to the same wifi network and waiting to sync.
    In the Console I get this error exactly when ITunes starts up:

    Google search has explained to me that this is related to Bonjour but nothing further. I have done the 'usual' - booted in safe mode, repaired permissions, updated software, reinstalled Mountain Lion via Disc Recovery, restarted my modem etc.
    Before I just wipe the hard drive and start again from scratch, maybe there's something obvious I'm not doing? Every other device in the house (2 x Iphones, 2 x Ipads, 1 Apple TV, 2 wifi radios and 1 other IMac desktop) have no problems with the wifi network.

    I am having similar issue.  Getting these same 24 error messages everytime I start iTunes. Sharing is already off.

  • Can't verify Apple ID. Get -50 when opening iTunes and error 5002

    Hi everyone.
    I recently had to replace the harddrive on my Macbook Pro. I went to download an app today from the App Store and it wouldn't let me log-in with my Apple ID. I opened iTunes to authorize my Macbook and experienced two different error messages:
    -When I first opened iTunes, I received an "Unknown Error" message (-50)
    -When I attempted to log-in and authorize my Mac with my existing Apple ID, it told me "...could not complete iTunes Store request. An unknown error occured (5002).
    Did a little bit of searching and found one troubleshoot guide for the (-50) error message that told me to delete my iTunes downloads folder and relaunch. However, when I went to delete this folder I found that it didn't even exist. All that's present is one folder for a Podcast I had downloaded.
    Any help?

    Do not mind this post anymore, I have resolved the issue!

  • Only displays apple logo, only displays that when plugged in.

    When plugged in my iPod touch 3gen only displays the Apple logo. When not plugged in it does not turn on.
    I have tried the reset method of holding the home and lock button.  When pluged in the logo dissapears and comes back,  when not plugged in the screen flash black for a second.

    Next try the remaining actions of:
    - 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.
    - 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 would like to stream music via Bluetooth to my car but the display will switch itself off after a preset time. Is there a way to disable the screen from doing this similar to the way the Maps application does?

  • Airport Express Problems when using Apple 27 " cinema display with Macbook

    I have recently got an apple cinema 27" display and when I connect it to my macbook and wake the computer up I cannot connect to the airport network. I can connect to wlan-ap, whatever that is, but my wifi barely sees my network. When I re-awaken the computer in normal mode, without he cinema display, the network can be connected to easily. Also, when I run the airport utility while using the cinema screen, you cannot see the airport express, but without the screen, you can.
    This is a weird wifi problem,=.
    Any help is appreciated.

  • 13" MacBook Pro and Apple 27" LED Display Not Sleeping Properly

    I recently purchased a new 13" MacBook Pro (MacBookPro8,1) and a 27" Apple LED Cinema Display. When they are connected the computer occasionally has a problem being put to sleep. When clicking sleep, the monitor will take a little while to shut off, but in about 10 seconds, it will turn back on. Immediately when turning on, the image on the screen is quite scrambled (it does correct itself). Usually, if I attempt to put it to sleep multiple times, it will end up working. When it does go to sleep (correctly), the screen will turn off much faster than the times where it doesn't sleep.
    Anyone else have a similar issue they found a fix to? When speaking to Apple support, they thought it was part of an issue with 10.6.6, however, the update to 10.6.7 did not solve the issue.
    PS - I keep my MacBook Pro lid closed when using the display.

    By the way, please be aware of a scam - iyogi 
    Online Technical Support - Call (AU Toll Free) 1-800-029-076.
      www.iyogi.com/Apple-Support
    I saw Apple support and called the number, it ended when I was asked to pay to fix my problem.
    I'm not aware of the company, but from what you said I don't see how that's a scam. The advert clearly only says the call is free, not the support. Why should they give free technical support?

    Is your 2.6 the CTO upgrade from the high end 2.3 15"?
    Yes, both will work under OSX and Windows. One note, when you boot Windows, you need to unplug the USB from the LED Cinema display or Windows will not boot. Once booted, then plug the USB back in to regain brightness, etc controls.

  • AFter updating to iTunes 11, my first generation Apple TV no longer automatically syncs when I open iTtunes nor does it display its playlists in iTunes.

    AFter updating to iTunes 11 my first generation Apple TV wasn't displayed any longer in iTunes. I had to relink it and after that it no longer automatically sysnc when I open iTunes, nor does it display its play lists. It still has its photos and play lists and it is linked up for streaming but does not sync as it used to do. Is it possible iTunes 11 doesn't support first generation Apple TV the same way it used to.?

    Yes, the first generation model still works with iTunes 11. It sounds as though you have set it up as a streaming only library.
    Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.
