Does anyone else have problems streaming video

Apple TV. It takes a very long time to stream video content. Is there something I can do to speed up streaming

As I said, our wifi connection speed tests at 48 mbps (capable of 50 but actually tests at 48) in the room the ATV is in.  We don't have wired connection availabe in that room, but may consider having it installed as part of a remodel.  However, it hardly seems worth a high dollar install for a 100 wifi device that cannot function wirelessly.  In the meantime we will use the phones for the itunes movies we wish to view.  I have been a big apple fan, and have 2 imacs, 2 macbooks, 2 iphones and an ipad.  The ATV has been a disappointment that wouldn't be a big deal (just replace with Roku) if it was not for the movie money waste.  Seems nonsensical I can stream from my phone to the device in the same room over same network, but not use the device directly.  It only gets the spinning wheel of death.

  • Does anyone else have problems with the new macbook pro trackpad?

    I exchanged my new macbook pro last week because there was a major trackpad lag. Every time I put it to sleep and woke it up, the trackpad would delay 5 or more seconds. I took it in to the Apple store and they said it could be a software issue and I exchanged it. However, I just opened up this one up from the package today, and there's still a lag. Does anyone else have problems with that? I don't want to exchange it again, so is there something I can do?

    Also, is it mandatory to run software updates when you first turn on your computer?

  • Does anyone else have pixelating poor video streaming on iPad 2?

    Hi I was wondering if anyone else has poor pixelating video streaming on iPad 2? Anytime I try to watch a video with much movement like any type of sports, like baseball and basketball the quality is poor with a lot of pixelating and blurry video. This is on the web browsing or in any of the Internet apps. Does this happen to anyone else? Just got it yesterday and have heard some people say that the quality of the MLB videos is near hd like watching tv. I appreciate anyone's help on this. Please let me know. Thanks.

    Yes, I would still say it's a slow down due to either a moderate to high volume of internet traffic on the Time/Warner servers (depending of course on the time of day or day of the week) plus, maybe since this is a sports (baseball) website, it could be a slow down because of amount of internet trafiic to that site and, possibly, more people viewingthe same streaming content as you.
    Also, if you have other people sharing the WiFi signal in your house and using the internet (via Wifi) this could, also, be another factor in your data connection speeds and slowdowns.
    That's usually the cause for either different levels of streaming pixelization or data buffering issues.
    No doubt about it!
    Hopefully your streaming experience will be better in the near future.
    If you use other video streaming services, (like Netflix, Hulu/Hulu Plus, Amazon, Crackle, etc.) try viewing streaming content from those sites to see if your video streaming quality improves
    Good Luck and Have fun with your iPad!

  • Does anyone else have problems with iTunes 10.3.1 BETA?, Does anyone else have problems with iTunes 10.3.1 BETA?

    Installed iTunes 10.3.1 on Mac and then all tunes vanished from my iPhone 4.  I hooked the phone to the Mac and Synced them together and everything returned to iPhone.  Next morning the problem was back.  I had to delete iTunes and reinstall an older version from my Time Machine backup.  It now appears to be working.  Has anyone else had problems with this?

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes for Mac forums.
    BTW, iTunes 10.3.1 is not a beta release. Only the iTunes in the Cloud service is beta.

  • Does anyone else have problems with built in website url links in a PDF not working in iBooks?

    I have several magazine PDF files that have lots of website url links built in to them.
    When I click the links when viewing the PDFs via iBooks they often don't work.
    However, the exact same PDF when viewing/clicking using other PDF apps like GoodReader work perfectly fine.
    Nothing else is different except which app I am using to view the PDFs.
    Anyone?

    It would appear iBook app doesn't support hyperlinks except within a document.

  • Does anyone else have problems with retina screens? My eyes are constantly hurting and my eyesight is getting worse in a short period of time.

    I've been using high quality retina screens for about nine months now and my vision has gone downhill quickly. I got my first ever prescription for eye glasses and my eyes are constantly strained. High resolution screens also cause other problems with my normal work flow as a web designer but that is a whole other topic.

    try turning down the brightness, If i even have it past half way my eyes hurt. maybe it'll help

  • Does anyone else have problems with iphone chargers breaking?

    I got my Iphone 5 in feburary. Since then I'm on my fourth charger. This is just insane. I am the proud owner of every generation ipad, 1 macbook, 2 imacs, 3 ipods, 2 apple tv's and obviously iphones. The iphone seems to be the only thing that breaks expect i had to spend $70 replacing the macbook charger once. My question is am I the only one having this problem. I talked to a couple people who had the same issue and even switched phones because of it..
    Today I was out spending another $20 on a cord. When I say break I mean you need to hold the charger cord in a certain angle for it to charge.. Apple needs to address this issue and come up with a new cord design.. My tracphone cords still work from 7 years ago...

    I'm not having problems.  However, if the basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the user guide (restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new) fail to resolve your issue, then you have a hardware problem and you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

  • Does anyone else have problems opening iTunes 12.1.2.27?

    Apple's Software Update asked me to update Yosemite to 10.10.3 and iTunes to 12.1.2.27 today.  I do so and restarted, and the "Software Update" window underneath the Apple icon seems to indicate it worked (it shows as having been updated).  The Get Info box on iTunes says it is version 12.1.2.27.
    However, iTunes will not open. I actually redownloaded it and got the same result. The icon appears to want to open (i.e., the "ripple" emanating from the center of the icon shows) but nothing happens. The behavior is the same whether I press Cmd-O select "Open" from the Finder's file menu. Any suggestions?

    I had the same problem.
    I thought installing iTunes again would solve it. It didn't. I first had to just delete the iTunes.app in the Applications folder. Don't remove any preferences or anything. For me it really worked with just deleting the iTunes.app and then reinstalling.
    I followed these steps from user Ben.d on this forum.
    Download iTunes from https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Open the Terminal
    Run "sudo rm -r /Applications/iTunes.app"
    Re-install iTunes
    Now it runs again smoothly.

  • Does anyone else have this video problem?!?!?

    So, This is ATV #2. The first one got sent back because during play, after 30 mins, TV would go black. ATV light would still be on, but no audio, video......Also when in standby, no audio/video would work when We brought it out of standby.
    ATV #2 didn't have any problems...... Till now. Now it plays, but like the last one, when in standby, doesn't want to come out....No audio/video..... At first thinking it was the ATV, but could it be the tv?
    I have a 46" Sony Bravia...Everything else works fine on the TV. Does anyone else have this problem of it not waking up from standby????
    It's driving me crazy!!! Any help or advice will be much appreciated!!!!!!

    Next time it happens switch to a different input on the TV, then switch back and see if you have video, or turn the TV off and then turn it back on again. It's possible it could be the TV, for example, if it ignores the input after a certain period of inactivity and fails to detect when the ATV comes out of standby. It could be an HDMI issue between the ATV and your TV. A number of people have experienced HDMI anomalies with specific make and model TVs.

  • After the newest update, i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    after the newest update ( iso 7) , i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
    As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
    I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
    Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?
    TIA
