ATV not custom syncing ever since iTunes update??

Alright- I've had a few problems with my ATV here and there- but for the most part, I've figured them out without too much headache. Now with the last iTunes update (8.0) it is telling me that I may have a port glitch within my firewall software for the AppleTV on my cpu... So what's happening is when my cpu is on, my ATV will automatically sync as usual which is great- I can run everything fine- no problems; However, if I try to custom sync any content- add or remove- it will give me the error message I described above. I'm not necessarily the best at networking glitches... but I checked my Network Utility and did a port scan on my IP and it said that the port that the AppleTV was looking for was open... any clues on the best way of solving this? Should I try a factory restart to reset this issue or will this not be the right step to solve this?
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance... =-)

Thank you Winston for your quick reply =-)
Well, I am set up for file sharing with my wife's MacBook... but it is rarely ever on, and requires user login to connect the two... no remote access or anything running. We do have a PC in the house that shares the network- but no file sharing going on. As far as the 3rd party apps, everything on our cpu is essentially stock off the shelf- no virus software or other network interferences- my cpu is tied to my router via ethernet cable and my other 2 cpu's and AppleTV are protected via WEP on my home network. The only thing I have changed on my cpu is the location of my iTunes Library to a TB external hard drive for storage purposes. Otherwise everything is as it was when it was taken off of the shelf. So I'm not sure if a 3rd party device is interfering here since my AppleTV is otherwise working fine (renting movies occasionally, youTube, etc.), if I did have any problems on that front- I'd think maybe it messed up the settings with my router, but I don't think that is the case here. I hope this gives you a little more of an idea of the network I have... any direction you can give me is very much appreciated.
Thanks again in advance,
Steve

  • Apple tv3 not seeing homeshared PC since itunes update

    My 2 Apple tv 3 devices worked perfectly with homeshare until I updated itunes on my W7 laptop.
    Now they do not recognise the PC. I've checked identities, restarted all hardware including my router, shut down firewalls etc. etc. nothing works.
    Netflix, mirroring etc. all work perfectly.
    When will this be resolved?

    Steve Join the club. Read to the right of this page under more like this. Its not just you. Tons of people are complaining the same thing and having the same problems. Some have to uncheck the box(homeshare) and check it again to see it. Me, its when itunes is closed or computer asleep. I have to restart itunes to see it everytime i load up the apple tv(pc). Macbook i have to close itunes and restart it to see it. Its an apple thing to fix(has to be). No Deff Solution Yet!

  • Ever since I updated iTunes my iPods will not sync with my cars

    Ever since I updated iTunes my iPods will not sync with my cars.I have a 30g and 60g 5th gen iPods that I use in my two car. In my cars I have a dealer installed integration module so that I can navigate my I pods play list artist and song titles using the radio itself. Ever since that last iTunes update 7.3.1. I no longer am able to use this feature. I used my sister’s 30g iPod that she did has not updated and the system works fine. Can someone help me with this problem.

    I have had an Alpine head unit in my car with the ipod connection for about a year and it has worked fine until recently. Now I get an error message on the ipod that reads, "The currently attached accessory is not supported by this ipod." I have tried connecting a buddy's ipod to my car stereo, and his still works fine with it. I've done the 5 R's, tried going back to an older version of itunes as Alpine suggested. My next step will be going to the Apple store with an appointment, seeing what they say.

  • HT1386 Why am i unable to sync my ipod ever since i updated to iTunes 11.1.4?

    Ever since i updated to the new version of itunes 11.1.4, I'm unable to sync my ipod because it does not appear on my devices. Was wondering if i could get any help on that?

    Follow step 5 in this article, http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538. Updating the driver should do the trick.

  • Itunes won't register my Iphone 5's existence when the computer does ever since I updated, HELP!

    After trying practically everything the apple sync troubleshooting page, Itunes still will not give me the phone icon to explore the files on my iphone ever since i updated to the new itunes. I can explore my pictures on the phone through my file explorer on my laptop, but as for itunes, absolutely nothing. My phone's only flaws are a broken power button and a few scratches. HELP!

    I can't even establish the first initial connection with the USB cable that would allow me to sync via wifi. When I plug my phone in, the computer registers it, and I can explore using the file explorer on my computer, and I have deleted, re installed, and restarted iTunes, but no matter what I do, Itunes doesn't even register on the diagnostics that I have a phone plugged in.

  • I have an older ipod...ever since I updated the itunes software my ipod no longer works in my car.  my car is a 2013 mercedes E350.  Is there a way to go back to an older version of the itunes software?

    I have an older ipod...ever since I updated the itunes software my ipod no longer works in my car.  my car is a 2013 mercedes E350.  Is there a way to go back to an older version of the itunes software?

    If it's an older iPod, its software is not being updated by Apple.  So, I don't see how updating iTunes would make the iPod not work with the car's audio system, since iTunes just updates the song files (not how the iPod operates).
    Does the iPod work by itself (play songs), when disconnected from the computer and iTunes?

  • HT5318 Ever since I updated what looked like iTunes 10.6.1 my computer has been corrupted with Malware, which has filled up all available space on my hard drive.  What do I do to get rid of the Malware?

    Ever since I updated what looked like iTunes 10.6.1 my computer has been corrupted with Malware, which has filled up all available space on my hard drive.  What do I do to get rid of the Malware?

    First, reboot. That will temporarily free up some space. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB free for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data.
    Use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space.
    Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To really see everything, you have to run it as root.
    First, back up all data if you haven't already done so. No matter what happens, you should be able to restore your system to the state it was in at the time of that backup.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    After installing ODS in the Applications folder, drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. When you're done with it, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • Ever since I updated the operating system, itune doesn't play music on iphone 4. if it plays, it plays only one song and gets stuck.

    Ever since I updated the operating system, itune doesn't play music on iphone 4. If it plays, it plays only one song and gets stuck. I've tried to reconnect to the computer to see whethere there has been missing portion during the upgrade... but not really. does anyone have the same issue?

    What does "gets stuck" mean?
    It repeats?
    It stops playing?
    Have you tried the basics from the manual?  Restart.  Reset.  Restore.

    ever since I updated my iPod software my iPod will not connect to the app store and won't let me download anything. help

    Hook it up to your computer and open itunes. try to download hte apps via your computer. Every time you update hte software you have to reagree to the itunes terms of service. Sometimes it's hard to get it to come up on the device, but is easier on a computer.

  • Ever since I updated to Yosemite my mac book pro keeps asking for Apple Id and password but will not accept them

    Ever since I updated to Yosemite my mac book pro keeps asking for Apple Id and password but will not accept them.  What can I do?

    Try the advice here. I had the same problem and it worked for me.
    You have to delete the "SC Info" folder from /Users/Shared. You will have to use Terminal to enable you to see this folder first. Make sure iTunes is not running when you delete the "SC Info" folder
    There is an article from Apple on this here. The "SC Info" folder contains iTunes authorization information.
    I did this two weeks ago and iTunes accepted by login. I haven't been asked for my AppleID or password since.

  • Help, My iphone can't load any of the downloaded application ever since i updated my phone last night through itunes!! And its telling me that it is error 1004!

    HELP!! My iphone 4 can't load any of the downloaded application such as Facebook and games etc ever since i updated my phone last night through itunes and it indicates that it has an error 1004.
    Anyone has any idea how to fix this ?

    If the error occurred during the update you need to redo the update, as it corrupted something on your phone. Knowledge Base article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275 says:
    Error 1004 and 1013: This error may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being blocked, redirected, or interrupted.  Adjust your hosts file or security software to ensure that connections to gs.apple.com are not blocked. If the issue persists, try restoring on another computer with a known-good connection. If this restore is successful, you will need to contact whoever supports your install of the operating system and security software installed on your computer for assistance. If your hosts file redirects requests to gs.apple.com, you may choose to follow Can't connect to the iTunes Store, in the "The 'hosts' file may be blocking the iTunes Store" section.
    This usually happens if you have used a hacking program like Tinyumbrella on your computer sometime in the past.

    Ever since I updated my iphone 4 to 5.1.1, I am not able to send more than one picture at a time in a text message. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Yes, I know the photos stored on the device... But which app are you accessing the photos with? Which app do you want to be able to highlight more than one pic at a time in?
    There are literally thosands of apps that access the iOS Photo Library - which one(s) are you using?

    iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update.  I have done recommendedl trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail. Can I go back to earlier version of itunes or restore computer to fix?

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?
