Can I connect Apple TV 1st generation to Ipad 2 wirelessly on my home network

can I connect my 1st generation Apple TV to my Ipad 2 wirelessly with my home wireless router and if so can anyone advise how to do this. 

I believe the first generation Apple TV cannot use AirPlay, which would be a problem.

Using AirPlay
First generation Apple TV appears to work with a Mac, but not an i-Device.

  • HOW TO CONNECT MY APPLE TV 1ST GENERATION TO ITUNES

    i just got an Apple Tv 1st Generation without cables. i want to connect it to my Mac and sync it with Itunes. Which cable should i get to be able to do that

    If you want to transfer something off AppleTV to iTunes you can only do that for iTunes store purchases made on AppleTV, and only if they've never synced back to itunes before - when AppleTV appears in iTunes if you right click on the icon there may be a transfer purchases option.
    Annoyingly there has never been a way to use AppleTV 1 as storage like an external drive to salvage video/music/photos by manually copying them to the computer - doing so would entail hacking or dismantling AppleTV to access the drive directly and even then might be less than straightforward.
    The USB port on AppleTV1 is not for connecting/transfer of data but for 'diagnostic purposes'.

  • HT4437 Can I use AirPlay for Apple TV 1st generation

    Is it possible to stream from iPad or iPhone to Apple TV 1st generation.

    No, Airplay does not work on AppleTV 1.  The software does not handle the protocol.
    While Apple TV 1 can handle the Airtunes protocol for audio, current iOS versions seems to ignore this from apps like Music.
    Your only option for audio on current iOS I've found is to use Remote app to control an itunes library for music and use 'Airplay' to the AppleTV for the music - iTunes still allows Airplay devices output for audio.
    You could also control AppleTV connected to a Sync or Share iTunes library using Remore but of course computer needs to be running.

  • HT1784 In iTunes my Apple tv (1st Generation) only shows Summary and photos so I can no longer load a movie and sync to the Apple tv. Anybody else experienced options now missing ?

    I used my Apple tv (1st generation) to load films on iTunes and then sync to my Aplle tv. In iTunes I now can only see Summary and Photos and therefore lost the ability to load a film and then sync to the Apple tv. Anybody else experienced this with ? Cannot find any options to resolve this.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your library has become a secondary (streaming only) library only (it is possible to turn syncing off by ctrl-clicking on the Apple TV listing in the device list and choosing 'Turn Off Syncing" from the contextual menu) and you need to reconnect your library as a primary 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.

  • I have an apple tv 1st generation, and there is a setting for airtunes. can someone tell me what this is and how to use it?

    I have an apple tv 1st generation, and there is a setting for airtunes. can someone tell me what this is and how to use it?

    I've looked at that, but on my PC, "look for remote speakers connected with airtunes" isn't an option.
    The only options I get are "prevent ipods [etc] from syncing automatically" , "warn me when [X %] of the data on this computer will be changed" and "forget all remotes". Its also got a list of backups I have saved, as well as a button to reset sync history.
    When I am playing a song, the "airplay" button isn't even visible.
    I am sure that the apple tv setting is on as well. Is there anything else you can help me with?

  • Apple TV 1st generation- can't seem to transfer rented Itune movies from my Mac to the Apple TV

    Apple TV 1st generation- can't seem to transfer rented Itune movies from my Mac to the Apple TV

    You need to establish if it was 1080p or 720p HD you downloaded.
    If it's 1080p it will not play at all on AppleTV1 - the hardware is not powerful enough to decode 1080p h264 (or 720p above 25fps).  When AppleTv1 came out most items were SD only and with time more 720p HD stuff became available.  1080p content cm after AppleTV 1 and 2 were replaced by AppleTV 3.
    AppleTV2 can process but not display 1080p - it is stuck to 720p output.
    AppleTV1 could only process 720p max, but could always upscale on output to 1080p!
    Your iTunes Preference should determine what quality you are downloading/renting.

  • Why can't I sync videos in my iPhoto library to Apple TV (1st generation)

    Why can't I sync videos in my iPhoto library to Apple TV (1st generation)?

    If it's already in iTunes, you can reconver the video to an even more friendly iTunes format using iTunes' built in converter.  Highlight the video in iTunes and choose Advanced -> Create iPod or iPhone version from the menu bar.
    When the video(s) has/have finished converting, configure them to sync to your iPod.

  • HT3199 I have an apple TV 1st generation - it froze downloading a trailer and had to be unplugged.  Since then I cannot access the apple tv menu.  When I run diagnostics it says it is operating properly but will not factory restore.  What can I try?

    have an apple TV 1st generation - it froze downloading a trailer and had to be unplugged.  Since then I cannot access the apple tv menu.  When I run diagnostics it says it is operating properly but will not factory restore.  What can I try?

    Apologies, I was looking at the wrong schematic for the Apple TV 1. There isn't a button. So lets try this instead...
    Remove the power cord and wait 20 seconds.
    Plug it back in and let it boot (Give it 10 minutes, it's being tempremental)
    Try and navigate to the the advanced menu and do a factory restore
    If that doesn't work then if you are using the white remote hold down the menu button for six seconds and release this should bring up a hidden menu which will allow you to access the advanced configuration settings.
    Again, if this fails there isn't much to do than tap it with a hammer to see if that fixes it (hard to believe how many times that actually works. (No responsibility taken if it breaks!, but at least you'd have a good reason to buy Apple TV 3)

  • I have Apple TV, 1st generation.  Just got a Netflix account on iphone but cannot get it on my tv.  Can anyone help me?

    I have Apple TV, 1st generation.  Just got a Netflix account on iPhone.  There is no Netflix logo on my TV.  When I go to the Internet option, only YouTube and Radio are on the drop down menu.  WiFi is properly configured.  Updates downloaded.  How do I get Netflix on this tv?  This 1st gen. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Sorry it was bad news - the ATV 1's were fine machines in their day and still work well.
    Newer features like Airplay, Netflix support, playbcak of purchases from teh 'cloud' etc are only on AppleTV 2 or 3.

  • My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?

    My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?

    I had the same thing happen to me.  It's a bug in iPhoto 9.4.2.
    The first time you run iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, it "updates the iPhoto library".  This sometimes tickles a bug where iTunes can see all your iPhoto albums, but iTunes thinks they are empty.  Since iTunes thinks all your albums are empty, it dutifully deletes any photos from your synced iOS devices.
    It's easy to tell if this is the problem you are seeing.  Open iTunes and go to the photos sync panel for one of your iOS devices.  If you have multiple albums checked, but iTunes shows a total of 0 photos, then you have the problem.
    I spent an hour with an Apple Genius.  he couldn't find any mention of this problem in their internal support system.  His recomendation was to reinstall the operating the system.  I suspect that this won't solve it.
    The only solution I have found is to restore iPhoto 9.4.1 and the corresponding iPhoto library from your backups.
    I would refrain from upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2 until Apple has a fix for this issue.

  • HT1515 How can I use Airport Express (1st generation) with OS X Mavricks?

    How can I use Airport Express (1st Generation) with OS X Mavericks?

    1st Generation AirPort Express will work fine with Mavericks.
    Are you sure that you have a 1st Gen Express?
    Check the model number on the side of the Express. 1st Gen is A1264.
    If you see A1084 or A1088, these are much older versions of the Express that were sold long before Apple began to use the Generation naming with "n" wireless devices in 2007.
    Mavericks will not support the A1084 or A1088. Use another Mac running Leopard, Snow Leopard, or a PC if you need to administer the older Express.

  • Apple TV 1st Generation: Update failed. Apple tv could not be updated

    Hello,
    I have a problem with my apple TV 1st Generation.
    I did a Factory Restore and now i have
    Software Version 2.0.2
    Software Build 120
    OS Build Version 8N5461
    EFI Version 00DA.B04
    GF Version 3.1.0/2.9.50
    I wanna upgrade the Apple TV to Software Version 3.0.2 which is the last but all i get after downloading and installing the update is the same message
    Update failed. Apple tv could not be updated. Make a Factory Restore
    I have made over 20 Factory Restores but the same message all the time.
    I changed the dns server to 8.8.8.8 and 208.067.222.222 but no luck with any of these solutions.
    Can somebody help me please, so i can update my Apple TV.
    Thanks in advance.

    I have already tried to update Apple TV by cable and I still have the same result.
    I still can't update it.
    Any other solution?
    The most annoying thing is that it downloads the update and when it starts installation of 3.0.2 then the message appears.
    Can this be Apple's servers problem or Apple's TV problem?
