Error 15006 when streaming movies

When I want to stream movies from my PC I choose "Apple TV" in iTunes and after a few minutes I get an error named 15006 "unknown error during connection to Apple TV". Any solution to this problem ?
Harald

Alos worth restarting routers, itunes and AppleTV - if AppleTV was originally detected and has since restarted or woken the router may have assigned a different IP address - it shouldn;t matter in theory but itunes might be trying to talk to AppleTV at an address it's no longer using.
Playback via Airplay in iTunes and direct playback selection onscreen from AppleTV use different communication protocols.

Airport Express error (-15006) when trying to connect as a remote speaker?

I use an Airport Express (g) to port music to my stereo.
Recently it stopped working and although the green light is on (ie connected) when I try and connect iTunes to it gives me the waiting bar and then error (-15006).
I've tried doing a 'hard' reset on the unit and reconfiguring it but no change.
Is it broken or is this a software/setup issue?
Thanks,
Dan.

After reading dozens of reports about this issue in this forum I found my solution and I want to thank everybody for their contribution. Here is what I did. I think this can help many of you that are having your airport not recognized by airport utility:
1- connect your aiport express to your computer with an ethernet cable
2- while mantaining your aiport express connected to your computer by this cable do a factory reset (see apple support to learn how to do this simple procedure)
3- at this time you will see a steady ambar light in your airport express
4- launch airport utility and wait 30-50 seconds
5- airport express should now appear with factory settings ready to be setup
If you have an Airport Extreme base station and want your airport express joining your network follow the above procedure and TURN ON airport in your Mac in order you can access your airport express through airport utility.
I hope this help you. My airport express (n) is working again with firmware 7.4.1 that many people claim to have a bug as is air tunes. My house is a 2 story building and this airport is on the top floor where te network could be problematic but it is not.
Regards,
Jose

iTunes Store: Error (-50) when downloading purchased videos
Last Modified on: April 24, 2007
Article: 303887
Symptom
The following alerts may appear when trying to download purchased videos from the iTunes Store:
"There was an error downloading your purchased music. An unknown error occurred (-50)."
This can happen when the connection timeout occurs while downloading purchased video content from the iTunes Store.
Products affected
iTunes Store
iTunes for Windows
iTunes for Mac OS X
Purchased video content
Solution
Deleting the cached video files of the download, and starting the download again from the beginning, often will resolve this issue.
To find the cached video downloads:
Navigate to the downloads folder on your system. This folder can be found in the following locations:
Mac:
~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Downloads
Note: The tilde (~) refers to your Home directory.
Windows Vista:
\Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Downloads\
Windows XP and 2000:
\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Downloads\
Locate the folder that contains the cached video file for this purchase.
In Windows Vista, the folder will be named for the purchased video, and the name will end with .tmp.
Example: The Dundies.tmp
In Windows XP and Windows 2000, the folder will be named for the purchased video, and the name will end with .m4v.tmp.
Example: The Dundies.m4v.tmp
Move the .tmp folder for the affected purchased video to the Trash or Recycle Bin.
Open iTunes.
From the Store menu, choose Check for Purchases.
Enter your account name and password and click the Check button.

AirPlay error 15006 when attempting to play from iTunes

I am using a 2011 MacBook Pro running OS X 10.7.4 an iTunes 10.6.1.
My wireless network consists of a Xfinity/Arris TG852G/CT modem/router and a AirPort Express (firmware v 7.6.1). I have firewall turned off on the router and on my Mac.
Whenever I attempt to play via AirTunes from my iTunes on my MacBook Pro I get the following error message:
An unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device “AirPort Express”.
The strange thing is that I am able play music via AirPlay from my iPad or iPhone with no issues.
I've tried resetting the AirPort Express multiple times and rebooting everything (Mac, Router, AirPort Express). Still this issue persists. (I have also tried using different AirPort Express, same results).
Any suggestions?

Doesn't work for me, still get this and then everything you described:
Never get Orange home broadband is my advice!

i just fixed this for my setup
I am running macOSX 10.8.2
my airport utility is 6.1
I have an Airport extreme connected through ethernet to my modem
i then have my aiport express downstairs bridged to my extreme through wifi
first go to your airport utilitie's "internet" tab
Then click advanced
I just set both of my airport devices to "configure IPV6 Automatically"
with the IPV6 mode of "Native"
Make sure they are both set up this way
thats it, it works now
Good luck

Unknown Error -150000 when streaming music to Apple TV from an iMac

Hi,
I have a -150000 unknown error on my iMac G4 (ITUNES SERVER) when I try to stream music to my Apple TV over WI FI. If I use an ethernet connection - there is no problem. I can also select and play the iMac's music VIA the Apple TV interface using WI FI.
To summarise
iTunes Server to Apple TV via WI FI -- Does not work
Apple TV to iTunes Server via WI FI -- Works
iTunes to Apple TV via Ethernet -- Works
A MacBook to Apple TV via WI FI/ Ethernet -- Works
A Macbook to the iTunes server to Apple TV via WI FI -- Works
so I can select and play music from my iTunes server via my MacBook and play it on the Apple TV, I just can't do it directly. I have done all the patches etc. All macs have iTunes 8.02 Leopard 10.56 ( they recently been updated, but the problem existed prior to updates ) and Apple TV is now on 2.1 .. it has been on 2.3 without success.
I do think there is something within the iTunes Server settings.
This iMac (iTunes Server) has over 80 DAYS of music -- some 15,000 long classical music pieces. The music is stored on an external 3TB hard drive. This is only about a 3rd of my collection. I still need to add more. Would this be a problem?
Also most of the music was imported from an iTunes library that was originally created using iTunes 7.0. I did not have a problem then. I am tempted to go back to iTunes 7.0, but I think this will not be possible.
Many thanks in advance for any help and / or suggestions

I believe this issue has to do with firewall settings. I set up my ATV on Thursday. After I finally got around the port 3689 error (by taking my firewalls down), everything, including AirTunes, was working. However, when I re-established the firewall by customizing the port permissions, AirTunes would not work. Today I took the firewall down again and amazingly AirTunes worked. The fix - I had to open the firewall software and allow iTunes to allow iTunes.exe to allow outgoing TCP/UDP traffic.
Hope this helps. I am a PC user, but perhaps this will point MAC users in the right direction as well. Good Luck.

Web video plays on iPhone but gets error message when sent to Apple TV via AirPlay

I belong to a fee-based subscription video site. Videos play perfectly on my iMac, iPhone 4S, and iPad 1. However, when I try to play them on my Apple TV by sending them via AirPlay from my iPhone or iPad, I get the "An error occurred loading this content. Try again later." message. Videos from all other sites (YouTube, Facebook, other subscription sites) all work fine. I've tried restating, resetting, unplugging the Apple TV, cable router, and Airport Extreme. This problem affects both my Apple TV 2 and Apple TV 3. Any ideas why I'm having this trouble with video from this one site? Is there some kind of video format that works on an iPhone but not an Apple TV? Is the site perhaps purposely preventing AirPlay streaming?

Hairpants: I have the exact same problem with my iPhone, but only on certain Apple TV's. YouTube (via Safari) and TED (app) both play at home fine, but I get the "error occurred loading this content" on the ATV at work. Very frustrating.
Winston: I wouldn't think an app wouldn't "block" AirPlay, but rather wouldn't build support into the app. But I am not an app developer, so I'm just guessing. Example: the new YouTube app only support audio over AirPlay, not video. You don't get an error on your ATV, it just doesn't push the video data.

Error message when streaming BBC iPlayer via iPad

I'm using ATV (v7.0.3) to view BBC iPlayer (v 4.5.0.64) content via an iPad Mini Retina 2 (IOS 8.1.3) so everything is up to date.
I can watch programmes directly on the iPad from BBC iPlayer either by streaming or downloading. Both work OK.
When I try to watch streamed content via Apple TV via Airplay, I get a message "An error occurred loading this content. Try again later." Every time. If I mirror, the quality is very pixelated, juddery and keeps stopping, so is really unwatchable.
I can successfully download programmes to the iPad but when I watch via ATV, it just keeps stopping, showing the spinning disk. I have to go back and start it playing again. Sometimes it stops every few minutes, sometimes it will play for longer, but it is very frustrating.
We have watched TV programmes Airplayed from other apps, including Netflix app, with no problems. We watch Netflix and Youtube direct on ATV which works flawlessly.
We do use a VPN service (for BBC iPlayer and for Netflix) but that shouldn't really affect anything.
I can't understand why it plays perfectly on the iPad but not on ATV. Any ideas please? I see that this question has been addressed before but never adequately answered, and not in the last year.
Thanks.

Of course it will, using anything other than what is supplied by your ISP is going to introduce streaming issues

Mac goes to sleep even when streaming to Apple TV?!

Hello everyone,
I just recently bought the Apple TV (3rd gen) to compliment my rMBP and am loving it.
I keep iTunes open with my Mac on, especially when I know I'm going to be streaming. However, my Mac seems to doze off half way through streaming a TV show, or a movie (usually something with a long play time). Macs have always just connected and "worked" for me so it seems strange that the ATV wouldn't just wake my Mac when I select Home Sharing.
If the show stops playing, sometimes if I go back and select Home Sharing again it will wake my Mac.. but often I get this message:
"Turn On Home Sharing in iTunes
To access your iTunes library on Apple TV, turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer using <email>."
My Mac's energy savings are set to sleep after 1 hour, it's always plugged in. iTunes is always open. Do I have to set energy savings to 'always on' if I want it to serve the ATV whenever In want? I thought the ATV would be clever enough to wake the Mac when it wants something, which would save a lot of energy - and as I said it does work on occasion. As I have a connected USB hard drive I'm trying to do it this way instead of having an always-on NAS.
I should probably add that I'm using an AirPort Extreme with the correct firmware required to have the whole wake-over-wifi stuff.
Advice please :o)

seems to be a bug. What I have done is set my computer to necer sleep and the display to sleep after 3 mins
This way the Apple TV works but I do not have a bright Computer system shining at me while I am watching TV

Error -15000 when streaming to AirPort Express base stations

I have the latest iTunes 8.0.2
The firmware updated to the latest in AirPort Express
PC: Windowds XP, SP2
When I try to stream music to AirPort Express from Itunes I get Error -15000
I have tried everything according to the support pages with no success. In some support pages the solution is only for Mac. How do I solve this problem for PC with Windows XP?

Welcome to the discussions forum divonka.
I realize those documents refer to OS X, but I'd suggest your problem is similar. Try disabling your Windows firewall. If that works, find a way to open UDP port 5353 as explained in this document. Hope it helps!

Home Sharing streams music from iTunes on a Mac or PC to Apple TV, an iPad, iPhone, etc.

Internet not working on Mac computers when streaming on Apple TV...

Hi Everyone,
Strange issue...
Apple TV works great. Internet connection works great. Router connection works great on all devices: MacBook Pro, Mac Mini (wired Ethernet), and Apple TV. Whenever I start streaming content on the Apple TV such as Netflix or iTunes movie rental, the internet stops working on computers. As soon as I back out of the movie on the AppleTV, the internet resumes working on the computer.
What the? Any ideas?

Same issue. Using 2011 iMac, time capsule, and Apple TV. Start streaming and the iMac Internet stops. Usually just safari; other wifi still functions, iMessage, email, etc. iPad works fine even when the iMac stops working.
Any software fixes? Or easy reset in safari to change dns or likewise? Using safari reset doesn't do the trick. Thanks.
