ATV Doesn't Update

I'm not sure what is up, but my atv downloads the update and then asks to upload now, check I click it, it just does a quick restart, like it can't install the update.
Any ideas?
It's a 40GB and there is nothing on the atv, I've wiped it clean.

Nope I tried that, restored it, but did the same thing when trying to update.

ATV 3.x Update & Issues

I've read enough comments now to know that the problems I'm experiencing are not at all unique.
The 3.x ATV software update absolutely *****.
What I want to know is why the heck Apple's engineers felt the need to make such radical changes, and why the heck pre-release testing did not catch all of these problems. Does the ATV team even use a Beta testing cycle? It seems unlikely these problems would have gotten through to production if the software had been thoroughly tested.
My setup includes the ATV connected to a Sony LCD TV via HDMI through an XtremeMac HDMI switch with digital audio output through a Bose home theater system.
I have the ATV synchronized with a Mac Mini such that unviewed movies are moved to the ATV and the entire music collection from iTunes is moved there as well. So most of the time when I'm using the ATV the Mac Mini does not even have to be awake. I also have the ATV linked to several other Macs in the house.
The problems I've experienced are:
1. The ATV is causing the Mac Mini to stay awake constantly. With the update to Snow Leopard and the previous ATV software version, the Mac OS "wake on access" feature was working flawlessly; now it isn't working at all.
2. When I listen to music, I turn the TV off since the sound is fed to the Bose system. But when I want to control the ATV and turn the TV on again, the ATV doesn't respond and provide a video signal unless I power cycle the HDMI switch.
3. When I attempt to use the remote, especially when the ATV hasn't been playing anything for a while, it takes too long to show the main menu screen AND it acts as if it "doesn't do" remote...i.e., there are huuuuuge lags of time between pressing a remote button and getting a response. This is especially true when moving left/right/left on the main menu...i.e., going from Movies to Music or back. When I move from Movies to Music, the response to the remote button presses take anywhere from 30 to 90 seconds to register; once the remote is being responded to within a category it works fairly quickly, but those initial delays are absolutely maddening.
I sure hope to see ATV 3.2 come out very soon to address all the issues Apple has created with the 3.0/3.1 release!
Meanwhile, if anybody knows how I can step backwards from 3.x to the last release of 2.x I'd love to have a pointer to those instructions.

Just to add to this - I have almost exactly the same setup as Mike incl HDMI switch etc. I have had all these problems the last couple of days and tried everything: connecting ATV directly to TV instead of through switch, swapping cables, power cycling the switch, restoring ATV to factory settings, changing the remote etc. None of these worked. Every time I switched to an alternative video input source, or switched off the TV, then the next time I wanted to see the ATV there was no video signal.
The ONLY thing that has worked was changing the HDMI output to 720p which I did by pure chance because I noticed after every reset of the ATV the system initially outputted 720p (spotted it in the corner of the TV screen) before attempting to go to 1080i which was the setting on the ATV.
Anyway, since I changed the resolution to 720p everything is working perfectly and I have tested all variations, switching everything off, etc and ATV works fine.
This is far from ideal and Apple needs to sort this out but at least it's a tolerable interim workaround.
Just logged on here to see others in similar situation so I thought I'd share.

ATV doesn't show up for syncing but does for streaming..

My ATV was sync'd successfully months ago with my iMac - but is not set up for auto sync.
Now I want to update the ATV library and want to sync again, but the ATV's Settings>Computers for the iMac sync'd library is greyed out and the ATV doesn't show up as a device on the iMac's iTunes panel. Here's a weird thing, though. If I click on 'Add Shared iTunes Library' on the ATV, the ATV immediately shows up in the iMac's iTunes devices panel. If I then enter the passcode, I can stream from the iMac ok - but, I really want to sync from it. (My MacBook behaves the same way - the ATV showing up for streaming, but disappears otherwise).
This proves I don't have a network connection problem, I guess, but why doesn't the iMac (or the MacBook) see the ATV normally? The iMac preferences are set to look for the ATV.
The ATV is wired into my TC router and the iMac/MacBook are wireless into the network. I updated the ATV software to 3.0.2 but it didn't affect the problem.

If you last synced months ago, is there any possibility you've made a major iMac change like reinstalling the OS, or thta you might have synced using a different user on the imac? Could you have created a new iTunes library under that user, eg moving one to an external drive, as a new iTunes library would be different.
As you say network seems ok.
If the library name is there but greyed out AppleTV/iTunes are not detecting this is the same library for some reason.
Also check in iTunes Preferences - under the AppleTV tab - how many AppleTV's are listed 'known' to iTunes (connected or not)?
If you can navigate to the greyed out sync library (top entry of the lot in Computers) and try to select it you could remove it as the sync library, then remove the streaming entry below and try to re-add it as a sync library once more - this will however wipe AppleTV content to prepare for a fresh sync.

Doesn't update iCloud ID

My iPhone 3gS, iOS 6.0.1, doesn't update iCloud ID, while it's done on the others Apple device.
Settings >>> iCloud: I have the previous Id, so iCloud on iPhone does't work.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

Code doesn't update when uploading new files to website.

code doesn't update when uploading new files to website. I was using an old DW version for a long time then forced to upgrade when I bought my MacBook Pro. Now when I make changes to my pages and link to new files etc on my harddrive, when i upload the pages it won't image because the code still points to harddrive (this did not used to be a problem)... I manually changed the code on the web host site to point to the site and it loaded fine. But now my files on my harddrive also point to the web host files and now don't image on my computer. I never had to worry about this so far and wonder if the new version has a setting I'm supposed to be aware of so that I can design on my hardrive and upload and it knows that the files are being uploaded with it? Ugh hpe this makes sense - I'm NOT a webs designer and the new DW is way more than I use in it's technology.

TS4083 Is there a way or a setting my folders in Mail to automatically update across all devices? if I transfer an email to a folder for follow-up on my PC, my folder in Mail on my iPhone doesn't update until I actually go into the folder and update manua

Is there a way (or a setting) for my individual folders in Mail to automatically update across all devices? For example, if I transfer an email to a folder for follow-up on my PC - say 10th of the following month - the same folder in Mail on my iPhone doesn't update until I actually go into the folder and update manually. Interestingly though, if I create a new folder on any of my devices they automatically appear on the other devices so it is just the actual contents that I am referring to here. Appreciate any help or guidance.
Regards
Justin

You can turn mail off in the settings but then you can't use it for anything, including the "test" that you want to perform.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Account Name>Mail>Off. That totally turns off the mail account.
As long as mail is turned on and you launch the app, it will look for an download new mail.

ITunes 10.6 doesn't update illustrations

Hi everyone, since the last two itunes updates i can´t make any changes to my music in my iphone 4s.
I can´t change details in songs or iTunes doesn't update illustrations.
What i'm doing wrong? I'm not a new apple user so...
any help? Thx

Yep. I assume I have the same problem and it's kind of ticking me off. I haven't tried deselecting the convert higher bit rate songs option because I have a lot of music... But ever since the latest iTunes update, I have found that trying to get artwork assigned to albums on my iPad or iPhone is nearly impossible.

TS3920 I have a problem after I lock my iphone or it is automatically locked , the time doesn't update. It just freezes at the last time of locking. Please help , it is iphone 5 running iOS7.1

I have a problem after I lock my iphone or it is automatically locked , the time doesn't update. It just freezes at the last time of locking. Please help , it is iphone 5 running iOS7.1
I check with my service provider as well as I synchronized with iTunes , changed time manually with the right time zone. Unfortunately the problem keeps showing

Hi Courcoul
Thanks for stepping by
To tell the truth I forgot to mention that I already did what you said, even more I tried all "reset" options including:
Reset all settings
Erase All content and settings
Reset Network settings
Etc
Even
Reset location and Privacy
It keeps showing the problem

My iTunes doesn't keep track of my listening history anymore. It doesn't update play counts and default "Recently Played" playlist.

My iTunes doesn't keep track of my listening history anymore. It doesn't update play counts and default "Recently Played" playlist. But it still tracking plays from my iPhone and syncing them.
I've tried to repair it with setup file. Nothing's changed.
Can you help me with that?
NOTE: Now I tried disabling the crossfade feature and it worked, started to count again. But I like crossfade, I don't want to keep it off.

I think I got this figured out. The playcount does update, but not how the previous iPod models update their playcount. Instead of immediately updating the playcount right after you finish the song like the older iPod models, iPod Touch keeps the updates in memory. The next time you connect to iTunes it'll sync those playcounts in memory to the actual songs itself, effectively updating the playcount of the songs only after connecting to iTunes. I have set my syncing manually. That's why after connecting to iTunes, my playcounts are updated. BUT it doesn't solve the mystery of my Smart Playlist. Even though in iTunes, the correct songs are listed, in the iPod Touch, it shows the old playlist.
Don't you just hate that? It was working fine before on non-iPod touch models. Now we have to live with this new bug. I just hope when they release software 2.0 it fixes these bugs and that they *give it for free!* People shouldn't be charged on something they should have gotten as a support!

Game center doesn't update leaderboard scores after reinstaling apps

I had few games with some nice achievements and scores.
I have deleted my games from my iPhone.
After some time Ive decided to instal some of them again.
My achievements and best scores were automatically imported into Game Center and the games.
It was cool and it was what I've expected.
The problem is i.e. when I play minigore and get some nice points the leaderboard doesn't update. There are my old scores but none of them are appearing after reinstalling the game.
Simply I still see some great scores in ALL but TODAY and THIS WEEK just doesnt show my new scores even when it's high.
Other game doesn't connect to game center at all. It shows WELCOME AGAIN QAYIN but doesn't update nor scores nighter achievements.
Does anyone has similar problem?
Any solutions either simply wait till update cause it is a bug?
Thnx...
Kai

I'm experiencing the same issue

My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. Please help.

My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. In the past when I have updated successfully, the spinning circle would show me an indicator of time left on the update. I no longer have this Indicator. The circle just spins and times out and nothing happens. I've reset the iPad in the settings menu, reset the router, logged in and out of Apple id, powered ithe iPad off and on, and tried a couple other "fixes" that I've read online. So far no luck. AAny help would be greatly appreciated. Much thanks!

How much free space do you have? If it is low, installers may not be able to run properly.

Moving files doesn't update Flash Skins in DW CS 4?

Hello,
on a page I've got a flash movie (.swf with skin (via
importing/converting a qt in adobe media encoder, then importing
video into flash, adding a skin, them exporting to site folder an
opening in DW CS4).
it works fine in the browsers.
now when I want to change the position of the page in my site
folder (move it into different folder) DW asks me if to update
links, I click okay, but it doesn't update the code/links whatever
(to show me the skin for controlling the movie). What have I
forgotten to consider? Maybe alsready at exporting the file(s) from
Flash?
Thanks in advance,
beatrice

(I will assume you're using the FLVPlayback component in
Flash)
The .swf that holds the url of the flv (let's call that
player.swf for
now) uses whatever link you give it. You can give it a root
relative
location so it will work from anywhere on your site.
/videos/flvs/film1.flv for example.
And, depending on the object/embed code generated, you should
be able
to edit that in the code view in DW. Something like
&streamname=/videos/flvs/film1
And you can then store player.swf in a different location.
/media/swfs/player.swf for example.
I think DW will update links to player.swf if you move
player.swf to a
different location, but I don't know if it will update
object/embed
code.
However, it seems that .swf files created with the
FLVPlayback
component are hard-coded to look for the skin file in the
current
location - that is, the location of the html file with the
object/embed
code.

Understandable.

Oops. I think I answered this above. I think it is the
FLVPlayback
component that creates a hard-coded path to the current
directory.

Again, you can store the player .swf files anywhere, and the
.flv files
anywhere, but AFAIK, the skin .swf files must be in the same
folders as
the .html files that reference them.
There's a chance that somebody in the Flash forums has
created a work-
around, but I haven't been there in a while.
I haven't tested, but you /might/ be able to set a BASE href
element to
get around it. Of course, all other links in that page would
need to be
root relative after doing so.
Another method (if supported by your host) might be using
.htaccess
with a rewrite directive.
If you're feeling adventurous, you can edit (a copy of) the
FLVPlayback
component or one or more of its actionscript files found in
the
Flash configuration folder.

AS3 swf doesn't update variables set via javascript

Can't figure this one out: I've got a C4 project with 2 slides. First slide has a button that executes a Javascript call:
SetStringVariable("myVar");
Where myVar is an internal C4 user variable with a default value of "Hello World".
The second slide has myVar being displayed in a text caption.
I publish the swf (AS3) and add this javascript function to the .htm file:
function SetStringVariable(n)
     document.getElementById('Captivate').SetVariable(n, "I set my variable!");
     alert("my var: " + document.getElementById('Captivate').GetVariable(n));
When you run the project on the web, the alert comes up with "I set my variable!" but the caption on slide 2 still says "Hello World". Not sure why this occurs since I've just done a round trip with the variable. It's as if C4 assigns the variable behind the scenes, but the UI doesn't update. This does not occur if the C4 project is published in AS2.
Anyone experience this? Any workarounds? I'd like to be able to use the SetVariable function in AS3 projects.
TIA,
Jim Leichliter

Steve Howard noted that you can edit the CaptivateMainTimeline.as file typically located C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 4\ActionScript 3.0\.
First, I added an external callback:
try{
               if((ExternalInterface.available == true) && (parent==stage))
                    myTrace("ExternalInterface is available");
                    ExternalInterface.addCallback("cpSetValue", cpSetValue);
                    ExternalInterface.addCallback("cpGetValue", cpGetValue);
                    ExternalInterface.addCallback("mycpSetValue", mycpSetValue);
                    ExternalInterface.addCallback("mycpSetValue2", mycpSetValue2);
                    ExternalInterface.addCallback("cpSetValueJim", cpSetValueJim);
Then I wrote my handler for the callback function which was a slight modification to the cpSetValue function that was already there:
     //JBL: For External Interface setting any type of value
          public function cpSetValueJim(variable:String, val):void
          //myTrace("cpSetValue variable1 " + variable + " ; val " + val);
          var arr:Array = variable.split(".");
          var ref = this;
          for(var i=0; i < arr.length -1; i++)
               ref = ref[arr[i]];
          ref[ arr[arr.length -1] ] = val; // This works fine for numbers, booleans and strings
Just make sure you publish your project in AS3.
You can place some js in a captivate button:
SetStringVariable("NameOfYourUserVariable");
Modify the published .htm file by placing in this js function.
function SetStringVariable(n)
     document.getElementById('Captivate').cpSetValueJim(n, "I set my variable!");
     alert("my var: " + document.getElementById('Captivate').GetVariable(n));
That's powerful stuff. Thanks Steve (ACE) for pointing this out! This opens up a whole new world of possibilities.

My Calendar doesn't update with iPhone sync even though it then updates my iPad

My Calendar on my iMac doesn't update when syncing with iPhone (the most updated device on my Calender), even though it then updates after I sync my iPad? By this I mean it updates the system on my iMac because it then passes it onto my iPad. Help PLEASE??????

Might help if you stated which App this was.
In the email iTunes receipt that you receive there is a Report a Problem link with which you can communicate a problem with each purchase to Apple.
