Does Apple TV ever go to sleep or standby?

Does Apple TV ever go to sleep or standby? I turned off my TV last night and when I turned it back on this morning it was still doing the same screen saver when I went to bed. Is that its standby mode?

Thanks... Mine is still on and I am at work all day. Oh well it can take a nap when I get home tonight.

  • Does Apple Canada have the worst customer support ever?

    Yes! Ask me why...
    I'm posting here a) to warn other Mac users what to expect if you ever need customer support and b) because there's no where you can actually e-mail comments to Apple, and trying to contact customer support has been fruitless (see below).
    Here's what happened to me...
    I bought my iBook just under three years ago - a few weeks ago, the logic board went. Now, because I purchased the computer less than three years ago, that's covered under the extended warranty for iBook logic boards (see here: http://www.apple.com/support/ibook/faq/).
    Simple, right? Well, I took my computer in to my local authorized service provider about three weeks ago. They confirmed the logic board was the problem... copied my receipt for the iBook to prove date of purchase... agreed that it was covered by the warranty.
    However, when they sent all this to Apple, their reply was that it was NOT covered because it was manufactured more than three years ago (although Apple's own website says it's purchase date - not manufacture date - that's important).
    I called Apple last Monday to find out what was going on. Spoke to a nice fellow named Kevin who said he'd look into it, and call me back the next day.
    Next day passed... no call. I called Kevin back left a message, and indicated I'd like to know what was going on.
    Wednesday passed... no call. By this point, I'm getting anxious - the service provider can't move ahead without authoriztion from Apple, Apple's not returning my calls (or the service provider's) to grant authorization.
    I tried Kevin again on Thursday. Left another message. No reply.
    Tried back on Friday morning. Left another message. Still no reply.
    Called customer support again Friday night. Antoine puts me hold for a half hour. I call back, explain that I've been on hold for half an hour, ask how long the wait should be. Antoine says two or three minutes. He puts me on hold again.
    For another ten minutes.
    I call back. Antoine explains that the reason I'm on hold is probably because customer service is closed. So why was I on hold for nearly an hour listening to terrible music? That's one of the mysteries of Apple customer support...
    So here I am, with a computer that's been in the shop nearly three weeks, that can't be repaired because Apple won't honour its warranty, and no way to even find out what's going on, because Apple's customer service is such an unnavigable maze.
    The sad thing is, I usually like Apples. I was even going to buy a new one this summer.
    Now - not a chance.
    The moral of the story? If you own an Apple, pray nothing ever goes wrong with it. If you expect your computer to ever need repairs, I'd suggest getting rid of your Apple now.
    If you're considering buying an Apple - consider again.
    As for me - from now on, make mine Microsoft.

    Does Apple Canada have the worst customer support ever?
    I doubt it.
    Seriously, would you like some help?
    Call back, and don't mess around with Customer Service. Immediately ask for Customer Relations. These are the people whose job it is to make an unhappy customer happy again. They aim to please.
    A polite, but seriously disappointed tone of voice is what you need, so take some deep breaths until you can achieve that.
    There was an article in the February, 2005, issue of Reader's Digest called "How to Complain." Please read these tips. Then call and tell Customer Relations your sad experience with Customer Service.
    How to Complain
    You call customer service to complain about a product, and you hang up angrier than when you started. That’s customer rage, a feeling experienced by millions of people with a major complaint, says Scott Broetzmann, president of an American firm that tells companies how to offer the best customer service. His secrets to getting good service:
    Have a goal
    If you want your product repaired, say so. Want an apology? Speak up.
    Keep it short
    Focus on one problem, and be succinct.
    Stick with it.
    You have to invest the time it takes. Don’t get what you want? Ask for a supervisor.
    Skip ultimatums
    Don’t threaten not to do business with them again. Why should they help you if you won’t buy from them in the future?
    Plead your case
    Many companies have information such as how much money you’ve spent with them and how often you complain. If you’re a good customer, they may be more willing to help.
    Be nice
    You’re unlikely to get what you want if you’re rude.
    Good luck!
    (P.S. Microsoft doesn't make computers; just the crappy OS that goes on them.)

  • Does Apple ever respond to these inquiries? There are many who lost their wi fi connection over the weekend.

    Does Apple ever respond to these inquiries.  As far as I can tell or read, many people lost their ability to connect to their wi fi over the weekend and nothing I
    do fixes it.  So what shall I do next?

    This a user-to-user forum.  From the terms of use of this forum:

  • Does Apple ever actually do anything to improve re: user complaints? Wits end with Macbook Pro 15" wifi dropping constantly.

    I bought a 15" Macbook Pro nearing a year ago and I've regretted it since about after a week of owning it. It's on 5.1.7
    The wifi is terrible. Drops out daily. When it does, it usually takes at least a good 5 minutes and moving it to another position for it to work again. Sometimes longer. Often it'll do it back to back all night. I wish I could leave it most of the time, but I bought it to use when I wish and to work on. I also have to be about 20 meters or closer to the router to even have a chance at a connection. This is not the case with the Windows laptop in the same house. I can no longer use a laptop at my desk because it is too far away (about 5 metres further than the area it sometimes works)!
    Moved the router. Done all that nonsense. Still crap.
    It also struggles when I have as little as both Illustator, Photoshop and Safari open. Literally going insane with it.
    I am constantly looking up ways to fix it. This forum pops up on every search. What I don't understand is, SO many people have the same problem yet there seems to be no real solution. Does Apple ever answer? This forum seems to be pages and pages of the same problem with the same amount of 'help' from other members that in many cases either you have to be techy to understand what they are even talking about or they've tried it all and are left with the same problem anyway. Square 1.
    - It should be noted that the inner workings of tech bores me to no end. I already know too much about it but I'm just not interested. If I was, I'd have went to uni and studied it. I just want something that I bought to function properly. Why hasn't there been a hardware update if this is a known hardware issue? etc etc etc

    You have tried a different router or access point, correct?
    You have updated the firmware on the router, correct?
    You have tried different wireless security protocols on the router, correct?
    You have taken it a Genius Bar, correct?
    You have started from scratch and reinstalled a fresh system, correct?
    What troubleshooting have you done besides move the router.
    Does Apple ever answer?
    No.  These are user to user forums

  • Does Apple Ever Fix Anything Based On A Forum Post?

    While I'm a great fan of forums, and sharing the knowledge and experience of the community, I've known some companies that monitor forums and actually help fix problems posted. Does Apple ever do this? Or are they just too busy makin money...

    My observation is, I see a few technical employees post right after a new release when dozens of folks post about having the same problem.
    Like most companies, they prioritize bug fixes so the ones affecting the most customers get fixed first.
    But for the most parts, discussion moderators only watch the forums to make sure the TOS are followed.

  • Why does Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit no longer work with iOS8

    Why does Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit no longer work with iOS8?

    The kit is firmly inserted in thhe iPad's dock ? You could also try a reset and see if it's recognised after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    I haven't had problems using the kit with SD cards from Canon cameras . What capacity is the card, and it's an SD or SDHC card - if it's an SDXC card that's formatted as ExFAT then it won't be recognised

  • Ipad2 plus ipad air all of a sudden instantly goes back to home screen.doesnt matter what app i am using just when it decides to do it it does.apple tech has no answer or fix for me does anybody have any idea what is wrong

    ipad2 plus ipad air all of a sudden instantly goes back to home screen.doesnt matter what app i am using just when it decides to do it it does.apple tech has no answer or fix for me does anybody have any idea what is wrong

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Could also be not enough free space for the iPad to operate efficiently. With iOS 7 it is recommended that you have 15-20% of the storage space on the device free.  For a 16 GB device that is 2.4-3.2 GB free. For a 32 GB device that is 4.8-6.4 GB free. For a 64 GB device that is 9.6-12.8 GB free.
    If neither of these suggestions helps, Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • Why does my macbook pro "goes to sleep" when charging?

    Why does my macbook pro "goes to sleep" when charging? It is working fine without charging but once I attach the charger to my laptop, it just blacks out or goes to sleep mode and I can't wake it up unless I unpluck the charger.
    I read from threads that it is a logic board problem....How do I solve this problem?

    Try an SMC reset. Follow the method for "a battery you should not remove yourself."

  • Does apple have update to idvd so I can use Sony dcr-sx44 camcorder

    Does apple have an update to idvd so I can use sony dcr-sx44 camcorder?

    If you already have iDVD then run Software Update, if there are any updates available for iDVD they will be posted. While that doesn't answer your question directly it is your best option. Looking at the software specifications for the camera it doesn't look like it was ever intended to work with OS X. This is what I found on Sony's website:
    Software
    Supplied Software : PMB Ver.5.0 Supports Windows XP Service Pack3 (SP3)(32bit), Windows Vista Service Pack2 (SP2) (32bit), Windows 7, 64-bit editions and Starter (Edition) are not supported. Not supported by Mac OS.
    Operating System Compatibility : "Windows XP SP3 * /Windows Vista SP2 ** /Windows7 * 64-bit editions and Starter (Edition) are not supported.The Windows Image Mastering API(IMAPI)Ver.2.0 or later is required to use the function for creating discs. ** Starter (Edition) are not supported. Standard installation is required. Operation is not assured if the above OS has been upgraded or in a multi-boot environment. "
    I suspect a camera upgrade may be what you need to do.

    Does Apple TV actually shut off when you switch back to regular TV?  Or do you have to sign out?  How do you sign out?  Or is there another way to shut it off?  Thanks!

    No, you need to go into the settings and select sleep now.
    You can also press/hold the select (centre) button on the remote for 5 seconds.

  • Does Apple Plan To Help Anybody w/ Their SuperDrive Problems

    I see a lot of questions from people who spent good money for a superdrive and are unable to use it BUT NO ANSWERS. Does apple even read these forums? This is totally unacceptable. I want all the possible answers to all SuperDrive Problems NOW. Get on it, Apple. Stop making new ipods and start helping people with the broken junk that you gave them in exchange for hard cold cash.

    First let's start by saying that we are all sorry you are having a problem with your SuperDrive.
    That being said there are a couple of things that you must understand.
    First we all have had one or more issues with the capability of the Superdrive in one sence or another,
    You must also understand that the Software that comes with the Superdrive is ENTRY LEVEL. It is far from the top of the line in burning software.
    The ease of use with the better software is daylight and dark in comparisson for most users.
    The supplied software is cumbersome and difficult for some users to navigate through, not being used to it.
    In comparison the better software gives you very informative choices of DATA, AUDIO, VIDEO, Likewise it gives you the choice of PC only, Mac only, or PC, and Mac compatible. Not all Media on the market is compatible with all burners and visa versa.
    DVD can be confusing at best without doing some research.
    Most users assume they can just put in media and click and wa-la they have a copy, Sorry to say this isn't the case.
    There are very few step by step instructions on the use of Drive capabilitys and the use there of. I contend this is by design by the entire Industry. Read my response to this post.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=264696&tstart=0
    Lastly, To my knowledge there are no Apple Butt Boys on these fourms, and none of us are here but for one purpose.
    To help one another with our problems.
    Rather then to go through the hassle of contacting Apple for every little problem we have that for the most part are self induced.
    If you have a specific problem, all you have to do is give as much detail as you can to your problem and there are hundreds of very very sharp people on here that have forgot more than you or I could ever hope to know that are willing to take there time to help. Don

  • How does apple know what the fault is with my iphone?

  • Does apple iTunes pre authorize your debit card when trying to download a free application?

    Does apple iTunes pre authorize your debit card when trying to download a free application?

    This has been a constant gripe of mine. No, Apple doesn't pre-authorise for free apps, but your account must be "ok" to download a free app.
    I use a pre-paid debit card for all my online purchases, simply to ensure nobody gets more than they're entitled to. But the only issue I've ever had is with Apple's pre-authorisation. Generally when purchasing an app, I'll check the balance on my card first to ensure I've enough. But inevitably Apple will pre-authorise €1.98. This sometimes has the effect of setting the debit card account into the red when Apple attempts to take the amount for the app. So I'm left with an app I haven't paid for (no issue there) and 2 unpaids on the card. The problem is that when my kids come to me looking for yet another free app, I can't download because my Apple account is not in order. A real pain.
    The solution though is simple. Set up another account without a card and use that to download free apps until such time as I'm ready to put money on the debit card and sort out the account.
    Basically, Apple shoots itself in the foot with constant pre-authorisations.
    I've been onto support several times about this, but they seem to give stock answers tha don't address the issue. Oh we'll.
