AppleTV Connected/Won't Turn On

I'm trying to connect and use AppleTV on my SONY TV. All connections were made as per instructions. Using the AppleTV Remote, I can't seem to turn on AppleTV and have it show on my SONY Screen.

Is the white LED on the front of the AppleTV illuminated? If it's off you won't be able to see it. The LED is an AppleTV's only overt sign of life, other than the signal carried by its HDMI cable to your TV. VoiceOver audio will speak to you and provide setup instructions, even if you can't see any video.
It sounds as though you may need to tell your TV to use that input.
If it's brand new you can certainly contact Apple and have them walk you through its setup. It's free. To contact Apple use the Contact Us link below.

I try to restore it and then it says something went wrong and it won't work. So I've been without my phone for a couple days now. It gives me error code (29). The phone almost reboots and then 3/4 of the way through it gives me the error message.

If using windows...

My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. What should I do?

I've had my screen replaced once by some stooges. What should I do?

When it says place the iPod in recoverymode use one of these programs.

ITouch Won't Turn On, Connect to iTunes, or Connect to My Computer...

Hi, I recently tried restoring my iPod Touch. After forcing it into DFU mode (Holding down both buttons until the Apple and Cable sign appears)I was not able to continue restoring it with iTunes. iTunes picked up my iPod in DFU mode and says what it normally says, "iTunes has detected and iPod in restore mode. You must restore it for it to work with iTunes", it then brought me to the iPod Touch screen where it has the tabs 'Music', 'Videos', 'Pictures', etc. and where all you can press is Restore. FROM THIS POINT I clicked on My Music by mistake. Now I can't get back to that screen so I can finish restoring. My iPod won't turn on, as in it's completely off, and won't connect to my computer, as in it doesn't make the 'Beeping' sound when I plug it in or shows up in My Computer.
Much help would be appreciated. I've considered sending in my iTouch for repair or maybe a replacment but Apple's repair form is not working at the moment. There is no Apple Store close to where I live, which is in a small town in ND. I've tried the following with no success.
Re-Installed iTunes
Unplug and Replug my iTouch
Tried different USB ports (All 2.0)
Restarted computer

He makes no mention what so ever if he tried to force restore it again after the first attempt.
He said when he forced the restore he hit "My Music" in error then his PC hung and his iPod would no longer be detected by the PC. He never said he tried the force restore a second time.
Why the **** did you even post if you don't have anything of value to add to the conversation anyway.

Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your device is in recovery mode you will need to restore the device.

HT4061 We just updated our mom's iPhone 4, and now it won't turn on. When it does, it says "iTunes" and wants me to connect to it. Nothing I do makes it go away, and I can't get it to turn on. Help!

I just updated my mom's Iphone 4, and now it won't turn on. When it does, there is a "itunes" icon, with the cord picture, which is asking me to connect to Itunes, I believe. Can't get past this screen to even turn it on. What do I do without having to restore her entire phone, which I have no idea how to do that?

You need to restore using the recovery mode described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 and may need to do that more than once to succeed.

I tried to update my phone last night. When I woke up, it said it needed to be connected to iTunes. I restored my phone and now it won't turn on and keeps saying it needs to be connected to iTunes.

I was working on my iPad 1 and it turned off and now it won't turn back on. It was 50% charged and even when I connect it to be charged it still won't turn on. Is there a reset button?

I was working on my iPad and it turned off suddenly and now it won't turn back on. It was at least 50% charged and when I tried to connect the charger it still will not come on. Is there a reset button?

Thank you so much! It worked, I was reading around and saw this has happened to a number of iPad users. Thank you for your prompt response, I was so worried I broke it or something.

If wjosten's tip doesn't work try plugging it into a USB charger (not through your computer), wait about 30 seconds and it should come on. If it doesn't remove the cord from the phone and keep trying this. I've had this same issue and found a combination of the reset & charging cable tends to work. Sometimes it takes about 5 minutes for the phone to respond.
Best of luck.

My IPAD said it became "disabled" yesterday and told me to "try again" in 36 minutes. It's been 12 hours and now it won't turn on. When I try, it flashes a screen showing an ICON indicating connect to ITunes. Help! How do I reset?

My IPad indicated yesterday that it was "disabled" and told me to "try again" in 30 minutes. It's been over 15 hours and it won't turn on. When I try to turn it on, it gives me an Icon message indicating that I need to connect the Ipad to a ITunes. How do I reset or "enable" it to begin working again? Thanks very much.

You will probably have to restore via Recovery Mode as suggested above. The passcode locked you out (I assume) and you can't bypass it in order to restore the conventional way. Read the instructions here.

The Find my iPhone service option is given to you when you first set up the device. If you just reset it, you may have been given that option. So, in other words, the service may have been enabled even if you didn't realize it. You can then go to www.icloud.com and click on Find my iPhone, and have it play a sound. Or, you can use the Find my iPhone app on your mom's iPhone, but the service would still need to be turned on on your iPod.
Unlike Compukid said, Apple will not assist in locating a lost device without the Find my iPhone service.
I found that out 2 years ago, it's just that I thought Apple might have changed that.
