Connect apple tv to a Bose system, Connect apple tv to a Bose system

I have a Bose acoustimass 5 seriesIII system.  Does anyone know or can anyone suggest how it could be connected to this system?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your sound system has an optical input, the easiest way is just to connect it to the optical output on the Apple TV.

  • I have a Comcast system and am going through a Bose amp for sound.  The comcast box has an HDMI port which I've used for the Apple TV connection.  Nothing works! Help.

    Thanks.  Thought that would be the solution but for my wall mounted TV it's going to be a problem but many thanks for your reply.....

    Thanks for the reply. I tried but failed. There's no sound through the Home Theatre system ( Bose 3.2.1 GS). The audio audio always come through the TV which is connected to the ATV. Please help. Thanks

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

  • ITunes can no longer connect to my Airport Express, which is connected to a Bose Wave unit.

    Hi, This started about a month ago. iTunes still shows Airport Express as an option in the drop-down, but when I try to connect it searches and searches and doesn't connect. Airport Express is functioning for networking and Internet access purposes. Bose Wave unit is also (independently) working fine. They just don't seem to talk to each other anymore.
    What happened? How can I fix this?

    Yes.

    Because trying to do it wirelessly is not working...
    That's normal.  If you want to "extend" a network, an Airport can extend only a WiFi created by another Airport, not a non-Apple device.  The only wireless connection that you can make to the Motorola WiFi is a "join" for the purpose of providing an AirPlay connection.

  • I have trouble getting my new Apple TV 2 to work to the internet. I have an Imac with OsX 10.6.8 using a 3G modem to connect to the internet. I have a Time Capsule with Airport. I can't get the Apple TV to see my internet connection

    I have an Imac with OSX 10.6.8 dual intel core.
    Apple TV 2
    Timecapsule
    3G modem connected to iMac for internet access.
    I have tied to get Apple TV2 to see the inernet but it does not seem to see the inernet connection either via the Airport network or even if I connect it directly with a ethernet cable to the Timecapsule or the iMac.
    I have tired to set up Home Sharing but it doen't see the Itunes Store so no go.
    I don't have wired internet but it is probably something to do with using a 3G modem
    Any tips on how I can check if the TV coonect to internet and what to do about this problem?
    I was trying to connect my HD TV earlier using a WiFi USB modem but it could not see my iMac. Apple Support told me to buy an Apple TV but that is not helping as I can't see anything there either.

    Thank you so much Paul_31 for your suggestions, HUGELY appreciate the effort
    I have reset the printing system, a few times for good measure but nadda.
    I have also looked at getting the software from the Apple site after seeing that with Snow Leopard you should let the operating system lead the install not the manufacteurers software as it is most likely out of date.  I too found it wasn't there so I uninstalled the software got up the CLX_3300 series stuff then went from there with the USB cable.  It apparently hasn't worked either
    Unfortunately now after using the print utility to scan for a while that has now gone again on the last restart of the Mac.  I am so completely clueless
    The box says the printer is compatible, the place of purchase said it was compatible, the Samsung site says it is compatible.
    I think it's the set up of my Mac? Our maybe a glitch in the network settings?
    Thanks again

  • Can 23" cinema HD Display support Game systems connectivity

    I currently have my display connected to my MacBook but space is a factor at my dorm. Can I use my Apple 23" Cinema HD Display to connect my xbox 360? I bought a DVI to HDMI adapter but i get no picture. i also have a xbox VGA cable if i need to go that route. I figure digital to digital should give me a better picture, the an analog to digital. Can my 23" Cinema HD Display support game system connectivity or these older display were meant for Mac's Only?

    followup question... Does the 23" cinema HD Display support HDCP? Could that be the cause for a blank screen. the power light is solid. I when to Display settings and lower resolution on the monitor, still no picture?

  • Hi - my mac mini drops the internet after 30 seconds. If i reset in the diagnosics it works again but then drops it just the same. Its connected to my home network. All other apple devices are fine?

    I have a home network which services:
    Apple TV
    Air port express
    Mac book pro

    I have a mac Mini which will join the network and operates fine but keeps dropping the internet after 30 secods of connection?
    If I reset everything in the diagnostics box it will rejoin the network but then drops it again !!!

    I am having Macbook Pro, I have recently tried updating my operating system to OS Yosemite, but after that its giving problem in connecting to Wifi. The error is "Connection Time out Occurred". Its getting connected by Ethernet cable.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Some of these steps are only possible if you have control over the wireless router.
    Step 1
    Turn Wi-Fi off and back on.
    Step 2
    Restart the router and the computer. Many problems are solved that way.
    Step 3
    Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
    Step 4
    Run the Network Diagnostics assistant.
    Step 5
    In OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and fix the issues listed in the Summary, if any.
    Step 6
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Launch the Keychain Access 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.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
    Step 7
    You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
    Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    Potential sources of interference
    Step 8
    Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
    Step 9
    Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).

  • Before my PC had iTunes, I loaded Aps from store onto my daughter's PC with iPad connected. I indicated my email address and Apple password. Now I want to upgrade to next iPad but Aps in my iPad are not on my PC iTunes. Do I have to buy again to keep them

    I'm a new user of an iPad. Before my PC had iTunes (it does now), I loaded Aps from from the iStore using my daughter's PC with my iPad cable-connected. I indicated my email address and Apple password--not hers and paid for these Aps--receipts arrived via my email. Now I want to upgrade to 5.1 but the Aps now loaded on my iPad do not show up  on my PC iTunes library. When I click 'Upgrade' I get a warning message that says all Aps currently on the iPad will be obliterated in the process which of course I don't want to have happen because they're not showing up on my PC which presumably means my PC is not aware of what's on my iPad. Do I have to buy these same Aps again to keep them if I'm going to upgrade to 5.1, and how do I get my iTunes on my PC to back up the Aps currently loaded onto my iPad?

    You should be able to copy the apps (and any other iTunes purchases) over to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. And as long as apps remain available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to purchase them, you should be able to re-download them in the future : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    If you are already on iOS 5+ on your iPad then you should be able to update the iPad directly on the iPad via Settings > General > Software Update .

    I can't get FaceTime or iMessage to connect, I enter valid password (tested and works for Apple account) and it won't connect. I have checked all settings, upgrades iOS to 8.3 rebooted, changed Apple acount PW still wont connect. My internet connection is fine Safari works and I can access all sites. I have an iPad 2. Any help on this will be greatly appreciate.  iPad 2, iOS 8.3

    This is an ongoing problem as you will see by searching the forum. 
    Out of curiosity, do you have 2 step verification enabled?  It was recently extended to include iMessage & FaceTime & I'm wondering if it might be causing some of the issues that some users are experiencing.
