Does the 1st gen apple tv have airplay?

I have a first gen apple tv and my ipad, iphone or mac doesn't see it. Can it be updated with airplay?

It is under the Advanced menu in Itunes. The menu item will state"Turn ON Home sharing " It will than ask you to enter your APPLE ID and password. It will look like this on a MAC, but it's not any different on the Windows version.As you can see mine is turned on.

    hi i have the 1st gen apple tv and suddenly when trying to rent a movie i don't see the rental interface. i did a factory restore and now i see movie trailors and my movies but not rental option. any idea what could be wrong??

    Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page. Some users have reported that Apple is aware of the issue. You can leave feedback for Apple at the link below.

  • How does the 1st gen appletv with the hard drive work?

    I want to know what the hard drive records and stores. Poscasts? Purchased media? Rented media? Your itunes media? Ripped DVD's?
    What does the hard drive hold media wise?
    Does the 1st gen have the same features as the 2nd, netflix, poscasts, PC media streaming?

    Does the 1st gen directly access podcasts without going thru itunes? Like the 2nd gen can do. Can the drive store podcasts?

  • Does the 1st generation apple wireless keyboard work with an iPad?

    Hi
    I want to get a keyboard for my iPad but I don't know if this one works with my iPad 2. Can someone help please??!!

    Should work just fine, I have a 1G Apple wireless keyboard and it connected just fine to my iPad 3.
    Any reason why you want to use a first generation Apple keyboard? They require 3 AA batteries and can drain them fairly fast. The second and present wireless keyboard only needs 2 AA's and the batteries last much longer. I use rechargeable batteries in my 2G keyboard as well and since my charger only charges batteries in pairs makes the 1G limited to alkaline batteries.

  • Does the New Aluminium Apple Remote have a Click Wheel, like an iPod nano?

    It looks like Click Wheel, but does it work the same way?

    No, the new Apple Remote uses 4 way directional buttons instead of a clickwheel.

    In addition...
    The 2nd gen will accept headphones with microphone.
    The 2nd gen has a volume control up/down button on the case.
    The 2nd gen has bluetooth capabilities which in theory will be enabled with the iPhone 3.0 software update.
    The 2nd gen can be obtained in a 32GB model as well as the 8GB and 16GB models.

  • HT1498 What has happened to movie rental in 1st gen Apple TV as the option has  disappeared ?

    Apple TV now only shows my movies and trailers. Does not seem to want to connect to iTunes Store. Is this Apple shutting down 1st gen Apple TV ?

    I suspect what you are ssing is a symptom of a wide-spread issue with ATV's right now [though looks to be primarily Gen 1 units].  There's an existing topic here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25524317#25524317
    Another thread suggested to click "I have this question too" in the thread above, and identify the generation of your device in a reply (As it may affect other generations as well.), so that it's all collected in one place.I was aslo suggested to submit the bug via the feedback page https://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html
    Looks like Apple sent out a Bad Easter Egg for us 1st gen'rs, but they appear to be working on it. At the very least they are aware of the issue. I doubt it was deliberate as there was no official notice of discontinuation of support.

  • How do I get Faces in iPhoto to appear on my 2ed gen Apple TV. The appear on my 1st gen Apple TV with Photos and Events.

    How do I sync Faces in iphoto to iTunes and then to my 2ed gen Apple TV so I can show Events,Photos or Faces on my TV? On another TV which I have connected a 1st gen Apple TV all three appear, so some how the 1st gen is sync'ing with itunes but not so with the 2ed gen Apple TV as I ony get Events and Photos on the TV screen.

    To choose which photos to show on your Apple TV
    File > HomeSharing > Choose Photos to share with Apple TV
    The dialogue box that opens lets you select what photos to send over

  • Why does my 1st gen iPad always turns itself off and goes back to the screen. Whether I'm reading news, iBooks, etc, suddenly it goes off.

    Why does my 1st gen iPad always turns itself off and goes back to the screen. Whether I'm reading news, iBooks, etc, suddenly it goes off.

    If that doesn't help, the battery may be dying and need replacement. See here (tap on Battery Replacement): http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
    Alternately, might consider start saving for a new iPad. The newest iPad 6 should come out in the next few months. When it does, sellers will want to get rid of old inventory with good deals.

  • Does the third generation iPod Nano have allot of problems with it?

    I was wondering if you think that there is an unusual ammount of defective iPod nanos, or iPod nanos with problems.
    I know that forums are mainly a support page, so I'm only going to see posts about PROBLEMS with the iPod, but i wanted some opinions.
    Should i wait to buy the new iPod nano, or should i go ahead and purchase?
    EDIT: Also, remember when steve annouced that the iPod Video could play songs with no song skip. I think it's called "continuous playback". Can the nano do that?
    And last of all, does the nano back scratch as easily as the 1st gen nanos?
    Thanks in advance,
    ZLH

    I am on my third Nano3 - the store replaced it without hesitation. This one is (knock on wood) working very well. If you are close to an Apple Store, the risk is low. And they ARE cool!
    They indicated that they had not had many returns, so it might have been just a bit of bad luck (after all, it is the 13th iPod in my family, and my 7th...)
    I have not tested the gapless play.
    I do wish, they had stayed with the Aluminum finish on the back. I never used a cover on my Nano 2, and it looks great. This one has the marring typical of polished SS backs. You can polish it out, of course.

  • Music Gone from 1st Gen Apple TV after iTunes upgrade to 10.1.1 (4)

    I use a 1st Gen Apple TV to store and play all my music throughout my home. It's perfect for that because I don't have to stream from my computer (as with 2nd Gen Apple TV) and can control the music from all over the house from the Remote App on my iPad and iPhone. After I upgraded to iTunes 10.1.1 this week I synced my Apple TV with my computer to add some new music to it from iTunes. All of my music promptly disappeared from my Apple TV. It may have still been there, but didn't show in iTunes on my computer or on my iPad or iPhone remote apps.
    My first thought was that I might have to do a restore on the Apple TV and then re-sync with my computer's iTunes. Before doing that, however, I simply re-synced all of my music to the Apple TV from my computer. It worked and now all of the music is available again.

    had the same problem once
    went to the appletv's settings and unlinked it with the computer
    let it do it's restart and clear synced data
    set it up to link with the same computer once more
    and let it sync the data once more
    haven't have issues since
    but described the solution to many in this forum who had the same issue
