Cannot get new Apple TV to send audio to my 2 year old Dennon Receiver, tried HDMI and digial optical cable.  Any suggestions?

Just purchased Apple TV.  HDMI works fine direct to Sony TV, but want audio through my Dennon Receiver and speakers.  Tried the digital optical cable, no sound.  Connect Apple Tv HDMI directly to Receiver, no sound or picuture.  Ops manual indicates this is suppose to work.  Contact Apple support and they offered no solutions?  My son has similar system and it works fine via HDMI.  What am I missing?

I am far from an expert but recently connected my tv, directv receiver and Apple TV to a Pioneer Surround Sound Receiver and was pleased that it worked.  Here are some things I read as I was setting all this up:
1.  TV must have an HDMI ARC input for it to support audio.  You would connect the HDMI output from the receiver to this HDMI ARC input on your tv.  My tv manual , (Sony Bravia tv) did not mention an HDMI ARC input nor was it marked that way on the tv's HDMI input on the back but I used HDMI 1 and it works.  If you don't have HDMU ARC, you probably already know you have to use a digital optical connection.
2.  Regardless of whether you use HDMI or digital optical connections, there are still some settings you have to make on the tv and receiver for audio.  Consult your tv and receiver manuals for these settings.

  • Cannot get new Apple wireless keyboard to pair

    I've followed the "how to" document but it does not work -- I'm assuming those instructions applied to the previous generation apple wireless keyboard, but not the new aluminum series.
    When I "Add new connection" (either Express or Custom mode) a dialogue box pops up asking me to enter a PIN on the keyboard and press enter. I enter the number given, but I get an error message that authentication "went wrong." I've heard that I need to enter a PIN of 0000 for the keyboard to work, but the Toshiba Bluetooth stack doesn't seem to want to let me choose my own PIN - it always chooses for me.
    I have uninstalled the Toshiba stack and tried the XP SP2 stack -- it works with the new apple keyboard when a PIN of 0000 is used. Unfortunately, the XP SP2 stack doesn't have the other profiles I need so I can't really use it.
    Has anyone figured this out?

    So you have entered the according PIN code into the Bluetooth keyboard (not the PC keyboard ! ) and "Link Level Security" was enabled - Is this correct ?
    Which Apple keyboard model do you use ?

  • Games won't open, keep getting message that it can't connect to Games Center even when opened thru same; reset and reboot not help; any suggestions?

    I keep getting messages that the games cannot connect to the game center.  Even when I try to open using the "play" incon in the Game Center, I get the same message.  The message refuses to do anything when I press either "cancel" or "retry,", it just sits there and the game won't open when it appears.
    I have tried resetting the IPad, turning it off/on; re-syncing, etc., and nothing seems to work.   Can any one suggest a way to get the stupid Game Center message to close or some other method to open the game?
    Thanks.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

    Cannot get the Apple.. what?
    Model and actual device you are talking about?
    Apple covers a pretty huge range.. If you mean extreme.. did you reset it to factory and start over.. that is always necessary when you change a network. You cannot pick up a router from one home and network and plonk it into another and have it work.. aint gonna happen.
    You also need to power down any pure cable modem for 20min or so to get it to forget the old MAC address that captured the IP so the Apple ??? has a chance to work.

  • Cannot get new token due to device offline state. Id error 40760

    Hi,
    I have a Blackberry Curve 9380 
    i can't go in my app world, the message says: Cannot get new token due to device offline state id error 40760
    what should i do?
    btw, i'm french
    thanks!

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
    1) Register HRT
    KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
    Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
    2) Resend Service Books
    KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
    3) Reboot
    With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
    See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    If not, then please try this sequence:
    1) Remove AppWorld from your BB
    KB10040 How to view or remove installed applications on a BlackBerry smartphone
    If it requests that you reboot the BB, do so
    2) Do a Batt-Pull reboot (power on, remove battery, wait, insert battery, wait), even if redundant to the one you did in step 1.
    3) Install (on your BB) a fresh copy of AppWorld
    http://blackberry.com/appworld/download
    Again, if it requests to reboot, do so.
    4) Do another Batt-Pull reboot
    5) See if it now works.
    Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
    Good luck!

  • Cannot get to Apple TV menu

    WWhen I turn on Apple TV, my television blinks "no signal". I have checked my connections and I am connected to my wireless signal. I've unplugged Apple TV and plugged in again.  Now the television screen goes "no signal" to Apple picture" to no signal, and keeps doing this. Yet I cannot get the Apple TV menu to show up. What do I try next?

    Sounds like it's run into a firmware problem.

    i bought  recently a second hand apple i phone 4s but now i cannot creat new apple id .

    I suspect you're referring to the 3 free iCloud account limit on an iOS device. If so, there's no way around this. Once that limit is reached, you'll have to create the iCloud account on another iOS device or computer, then setup that account on your phone.

  • I cannot get new apps on my iPad 1

    I cannot get new apps on my iPad 1

    Ok...... Do you have a question for us? Perhaps you could start by explaining what's happening when you try to download apps. What error messages are you getting? What troubleshooting steps have you already tried?
    Please note that the original iPad can't be updated beyond iOS 5.1.1. Apps that require a later version of iOS won't work on your device.
    Best of luck.

    Hi, I have a problem with getting my apple Id working for me. It's been 2 months since it happened and Apple failed to act. I can tell my story proerly, but am not sure, you guys can help, so I just copy my message to them today, I am trying to get it across all the places around to pay their attention. This is a desperate move, so if you are not the right people to help me to get my message accross, may be you can advise where can I go.
    Thank you, and sorry for the language.

    I am sorry to say that, but your security makes my life miserable – it’s been 2 months since my Apple ID account got stuck, and since then I cannot update 37 applications (to date), i.e. most of my applications. Half of them I bought. I also paid for iCloud, and it is not working. I paid money and I am stuck with old applications and no iCloud. Your security *****. Your service ***** too. It took your service 1 month to finally understand why this happened to me, and it took me tens of emails to you and 3 hours of telephone conversation to find out the reason for my problem. And the problem is still not fixed. NOT FIXED. You just leave your customer – the one who paid you money and spent so much time with you trying to help you help me – and nothing. You tell me:  “Vitas, Stick your stinky iphone in your *** and enjoy life, we do not care!” *************.
    It is ******* outrageous, and you should know that,  guys. Get into the ******* database and correct the bug. Get someone in the partners-telephone carriers company (it is Orange as carreer and Cellcom as seller of the phone)  authorized to Identify me in personal encounter in one of the branches in Israel (where I live) and make sure it is really me, and get the ******* system accept my password and let me use my phone.
    Otherwise **** off. None of my friends will get my advise to buy an iphone or any of apple products. And I think you should be very attentive to cases like this, guys. Do your work for the money we pay, or disappear. There are many others eager to take your place, and if the problem is not fixed I will eventually go to the others. My patience is lost, and as soon as I can afford another phone I will change it. AND I WILL TRY TO GIVE BAAAAAD PUBLICITY TO APPLE – I am threatening here, so ACT NOW.

    Well, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
    So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542
    If someone knows how to fix this and make firefox launch normally, please reply! Thank you
