Atv not communication with iTunes

Ok, first, after downloading 8.2 and 10.5.7 my Atv wouldn't stay synced with iTunes for more than an hour or two at best. Miraculously, that problem seems to have resolved itself this week as I can't remember the last time I got the message that no TV shows were synced with my Atv.
Now, I can't rent movies. Everytime I try to rent one I get a screen saying the iTunes store is having trouble communicating with Atv. ***? I can't go a week without some sort of issue. I have restarted Atv as well as iTunes on my Mac to no avail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Yep, their servers must be down...can't rent from itunes off the PC either. That's pretty bad. I love how they don't even have an update page with status so we can save ourselves hours trying to solve the problem when it's on their end. Frustating!!!!

  • My addressbook is not communicating with iTunes!!HELP!!

    I can't sync my IOS devices with my last version of the address book! I updated my address book in my Macbook Pro OS X 10.6.8 and then it is not communicating with iTunes. I tried the 28 step troubleshooting to this issue, my iTunes cache is clean but still not syncronizing... Tried to use iCloud online to upload the vcf cards but in each group it losts a lot of contacts (and I don't know why, because they are far away from the iCloud limits...).

  • IPod not communicating with iTunes

    When I open iTunes a dialog box pops up saying "The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you?" To which I answer yes, click the "Continue" button and wait....iTunes then opens up and another dialog box opens saying the same thing "The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Please uninstall and reinstall iTunes" Tried this a couple of times but no success. And as instructed removed all the other apple programs as well (bonjour etc) Any help or ideas??? Its a gen 2 ipod nano

    hi eddie!
    The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software." I have uninstalled and reinstalled all software several times to no avail. I also tried many of the diagnostics on the Apple troubleshooting section website, but it still doesn't work.
    i'm just making sure that i know what you've tried already, before we try working through some of the exotic causes of this error message.
    it sounds like you've seen this document:
    iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes
    ... have you also checked up on this possibility?

  • My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore.  I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689"  firewall is off

    My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore.  I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689"  firewall is turned off.. Any ideas?

    Thanks Rudegar,
    I only synch and do not stream off of my 1st Gen AppleTV
    I will try with ethernet but will be a pain in the butt if i can not fix it with wifi for long term fix
    I may end up trying to do a named IP address vs DHCP for this appleTV (not sure if i can do both and do not want to remove DHCP as i have a bunch of sensors and other devices that I prefer to dynamically add to the network via DHCP vs. assign each one
    Will keep working on other fix options (factory reset, etc.)
    Thanks again

    What should I do?

    Communicate with iTunes? What does this mean? Tell us what you are seeing on your screen and what you then try to do?

  • IPhone 5 not syncing with iTunes 10.0.3

    My iPhone 5 (version iOS 6.1.4) is not syncing with iTunes 10.0.3 ?
    When I plug my iPhone 5 into my Mac Pro (version OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.3) the iPhone 5 syncs with iPhoto but not iTunes ?
    The phone 5 is being charged via the USB cable into the Mac Pro, I can import photos via iPhoto from the iPhone 5, but I can not get iTunes to sync with the iPhone.
    I have gone through all the steps in the "iPhone not appearing in iTunes" support assistant link with no luck:
    iPhone not appearing in iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/itunes/#section_1
    Does anyone have any suggestions ?

    I finally got iTunes to sync with my iPhone 5
    I followed the step by step instructions in this archived support article:
    Archived - Mac OS X v10.6: iOS device not recognized in iTunes after restart
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3540?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    If the issue remains, try these steps:
    Disconnect the device and quit iTunes.
    In the Finder, locate iTunes in the Applications folder and drag it to the Trash. (This will not remove any of your iTunes media or your iTunes library.)
    Choose Go > Go to Folder. Enter the following location into the text field that appears:
    /System/Library/Extensions
    Click Go.
    Locate the file "AppleMobileDevice.kext" and drag it to the Trash.
    Restart the Mac.
    In Finder, click the Go menu and then choose Go to Folder. Enter the following location into the text field that appears:
    /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks
    Click Go.
    Locate the folder "MobileDevice.framework" and drag it to the Trash.
    In Finder, click the Go menu and then choose Go to Folder. Enter the following location into the text field that appears:
    /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
    Click Go.
    Locate the file "com.apple.usbmuxd.plist~orig" and drag it to the trash. (Do not move the similarly named "com.apple.usbmuxd.plist" file to the Trash.)
    Restart the Mac.
    Download iTunes and reinstall it. Test to see if the issue persists. Then, restart your Mac a final time to confirm issue is still resolved.

  • My Apple TV (1st Gen) will not synch with iTunes on my Laptop

    I've been trying to do this for a while, it shouldn't be too difficult i think.
    All i want to do is synch all the content on my laptop with my Apple TV (and vice versa) so all the content including photos and home videos is the same on both my Apple TV and my laptop.
    Some points:
    There's enough hard drive space on both
    I'm using Windows 7 ultimate on my laptop
    The correct port exceptions have been added to Windows Firewall
    I have purchases on both my laptop and Apple TV from the iTunes store
    We're using a wireless network and it while it's possible to get them both cable wired, it would be a pain
    Home networking is set up in iTunes on my laptop
    I've set up my Apple TV to synch (not stream) with my account on my laptop
    Both iTunes and Apple TV are up to date with their downloads
    I think that's it - am i missing anything, or should this now just work?
    Cheers
    David

    As per the question, really...
    "My Apple TV (1st Gen) will not synch with iTunes on my Laptop"
    There's no error messages
    Only the films i've bought on my AppleTV appear on my AppleTV
    It's been synching for over 4 hours and hasnt got past the first film and the progress bar is not moving

  • Podcast List view not updated with iTunes 11.3.1.2

    Podcast List view not updated with iTunes 11.3.1.2
    Windows 7 Enterprise Service Pack 1 / Intel-i7 2.40 GHz / 8GB RAM / 64-bit
    iTunes 11.3.1.2
    After refreshing my Podcast list, some Podcasts with new episodes do not display the "Unplayed" blue dot.
    If the podcast "folder" is expanded by clicking the triangle, the new episodes are shown with a "Unplayed" blue dot.
    A new episode is shown in the My Podcast view, with the correct number of new episodes.
    The new episodes are displayed in the All Unplayed view.
    I've tried deleting all episodes and downloading new episodes from the iTunes Store.
    I've tried Unsubscribing and deleting the podcast, then Subscribing again from the iTunes Store.
    Neither attempt resolved the issue.
    I've seen this issue for a while, and was disappointed to find no change with the iTunes 11.3.1.2 update.

    it finally worked; got my Rush 24/7 downloaded, and it finally found my iPhone after switching from the USB 4 port Hub to a dedicated USB 2.0 slot on my laptop.

  • Iphone 4 will not sync with itunes on Windows 7 64 bit

    My iphone 4 will not sync with itunes on Windows 7 64 bit. My computer recognizes the iphone but Itunes does not. Any suggestions?

    First it told me to uninstall itunes and install a windows 64 bit version which I did, the phone still won't sync
    At the same time the itunes won't access the store
    I've never accessed the store before or synced the phone
    I live in a country without apple stores and geniuses so this is really the only way someone can help me

  • My Ipod will not sync with Itunes - PLEASE HELP

    I have a bunch of songs on my ipod that I have from my previous computer and they will not sync with Itunes on my new computer. I have authorized the computer, I have also selected the "transfer purchases from ipod" option, I have spent the last day reading through FAQs but have found no solution. How do I fix the problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

    The transfer purchases option only works with music purchased from iTunes and you don't say if this is the case.
    Here's some other option for Windows users.
    First, try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.

    Hello Christian,

  • My iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening.  My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud.

    my iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening.  My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud. However, when i change documents on my mac (documents that are supposed to be in the iCloud), the changes do not sync with my other devices nor with iCloud.  Even when i create new documents on my mac and save them to iCloud, all seems okay and i can access them from my mac, however they do not show up in the iCloud and i can't access them with my other devices.
    Most recent version of mountain lion updated over a month ago.  New iPad in use for over a month.
    thanks

    The same thing is happening to me, Mail was fine about an hour ago and now is rejecting correct password.  Typical when today I'm waiting some important emails!
