HBO GO won't activate on Apple TV but it's activated on my MacBook Air

I just uploaded the newest version of Apple TV and when I go to HBO GO it tells me I need to activate HBO GO and gives me an activation code. I already have an active HBO GO account on my computer but I went ahead and followed the steps I was told. Once I finished the steps, my computer said "SUCCESS.... you may now start streaming HBO GO on your Apple TV". Yeah. Not. I went back to HBO GO on my Apple TV and the same thing happened again, I was prompted to activate. Now I have done literally everything I can think of and I have been doing this for four hours, I have read blogs, apple community, Apple TV help, HBO GO help, you name it and nothing. I have also done the following:
I made sure my Apple TV and HBO GO are on the same network...Check
I logged out of HBO GO and logged back in...Nothing
I restarted both my computer and my Apple TV...Nothing.
I restored my Apple TV to it's factory settings...Nothing
I restored my Apple TV to it's factory settings AND went through the activation process again...Nothing
My cable provider is AT&T UVerse and is compatible and offers HBO GO on Apple TV. So what the heck?????
Can somebody PLEASE help?? All I want to do is start watching Empire Boardwalk from the beginning and its not on Netflix yet and I can't get back to season one on my cable. Additionally my Airplay playback is really slow if I try to watch it on my computer through Airplay!
Trust me...I've tried it all.

Hello red_kls,
You have done a lot of troubleshooting that I would have provided you and I do not like passing people off but because you are still having issues, then you may want to contact HBO for additional support.

Even if it will run Mountain Lion it will not support Airplay Mirroing as it will not have the required hardware support.
You can try AirParrot which attempts to do the same in software.

I would like to know why Apple doesn't have Glossy Widescreen Display on MacBook Air

I would like to know why Apple doesn't have Glossy Widescreen Display on MacBook Air ?
MacBook Air looks like a "vintage" laptop with that horrible screen frame.

Apple may consider your suggestion if you suggest it to Apple directly.

Changed apple-ID password - cannot connect to icloud via macbook air but it works on iphone and itunes..

My Ipad got stolen soon after i updated in to ios7.
the idiot i am, i did not activate find my ipad, so i changed all my passwords, including the apple-id.
now i have the following problem:
on my iphone, everything works as usual.
however, i cannot connect to icloud via my macbook air, if i type in my password (and trust me i have already changed it a few times, it always works on the phone but not on the macbook) i get the following message: "Sie konnten aufgrund eines Kommunikationsproblems mit iCloud nicht angemeldet werden." which means more or less that i could not connect to icloud due to a communication problem.
does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
thank you!
regards

Sign out of iCloud, the sign in with the new ID/ Password.

Does apple make a black charging cable for a MacBook air?

Hi All,
I'm looking for a black charging cable for my new MacBook Air. I realize that this sounds like a ridiculous request, but my cat has an affinity for white cords. Anyone know where I can find one?

Bloody Cats,
I have a similar problem unfortunately they don't, the Patent protection on Apple's Mag Safe tech is mostly likely why you can buy a non Apple one.

I want to change the apple id on my iphone to match my MacBook Air

When I first set up my iphone I I share the ID with my spouse. Now I have a MacBook Air and set up a personal apple id. I'd like my phone to match it to Sync in the Cloud environnment. How can I reset my iphone apple id?

Do you mean your itunes id, icloud id or another id.
You should be able to use your itunes id (settings, store, sign in) on both devices wiothout any issues.
The only issue you would have if you want to use 2 different icloud id's, one on your pc and one on your phone and still sync via itunes.
If your wanting to merge your apple id's this may not be possible, definately not possible if they are itunes id's

How do I remove Apple Mail app from the dock on my Macbook Air, Maverick version?!?

I am using OS X version 10.9.2 (Maverick). The Apple Mail app is frozen and stuck on my dock. How do I remove it?!? The icon is active (light below) but I have quit the application. Also, I cannot open the application anymore either (I click to open, but nothing happens). Help!

I just tried trashing everything in the Mail package contents and restarting my Air. However, it says that Mail has cancelled restart and that I should try quitting Mail (which I have done, multiple times)..... Please help!

I have apple id but can't active my iphone

I have owned the account and have logged in on my Iphone 5s. But when upgrading to ios 8.0.2 and active on the screen when you can not log in even though I have logged in correctly
<Personal information edited by Host>

The help is the same for everyone. Apple will NOT help you circumvent the activation lock. Have the owner find his Apple ID and/or reset his password at:
https://appleid.apple.com/
If the "owner" is unable to do so, you will never be able to use that phone. Return it for a refund.

Does the Apple Snow Leopard install USB work with any macbook air?

Hi guys and girls,
Im changing the hard drive in my MBA 2008 A1237 from the 80GB HDD to the 64GB SSD. Ive seen a Snow Leopard install usb on ebay for £15 so ive brought it.... but I was wondering if it would actuly work with my particular Air?
As my perivouse exspriance tells me that some install DVDs are tied to cirent products such as my iMac install dvd wont work on my Macbook..
Thanks
Firky

The OS X Lion Thumb Drive isn't being sold by Apple, so you need Snow Leopard. Buy Snow Leopard from Apple and use the USB SuperDrive to do it. Then, open Apple menu > Software Update and install the most recent version. If you don't want to spend more money, stay in Snow Leopard, but if you want Lion, call Apple to purchase Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

RE Apple Mail on Yosemite 10.10.3 on MacBook Air

Actually have something positive to report, I think. On Maverick 10.9.4 version before the update to Yosemite, if I deleted from anyplace but the inbox,
then that mail item was also deleted from the folder I have copied it to in On My Mac folders. With Yosemite 10.10.3 (it appears that) if item deleted
and even when trash emptied with this item in it, the item still remains in the folder it was saved into On My Mac. I don't think I am mistaken about this positive development. I loved Outlook Express that worked this way, where I could clean out everything everywhere but still store mail, according to my own labeled folders; now Yosemite 10.10.3 seems to be doing this, when Maverick didn't. I'm happy with this. Am I correct, do others find this also or am I missing something?
Happy to be happy about Yosemite upgrade in this regard, for if what i believe i am observing is correct, it would mean I could empty out inbox,
sent and trash completely, and only save mail that I am interested in, into folders with names that I create. Am I correct? Don't want to be
'sorry later' for aspect not understood now. Would appreciate confirmation that the way I am experiencing this is accurate and others experience too.

That is how mine works.

Can i trust a mail from apple.dk@voila.fr. I vun a MacBook air in a competision on the Internet?

I vun a MacBook air in a competision on the Internet?

Probably not. Computers are not given away to just anyone out of the blue. Sounds phishy to me. Reminds me of the Nigerian wanting to give you a boatload of money.
Did you enter the compitition from some place you know? If not don't trust it
Do you know who is at that email address? If no then don't trust it
Is the email asking for personal information? If yes don't trust it
Is there a link in the email linking to some other third party? If yes, don't trust it

Messages and FaceTime just won't activate on my iPad Air all of a sudden; tried a LOT of solutions

About two weeks ago, my iPad Air was spontaneously signed out of Messages and FaceTime when I was using it to browse the web while on the bus, connected via Personal Hotspot on my iPhone. Since then, I haven’t been able to sign in to either Messages or FaceTime. I can still sign in to my iCloud account as normal for other things like contact and bookmark syncing. It’s just Messages and FaceTime that refuse to activate.
The error messages I receive vary between the following:
“An error occurred during activation. Try again."
“Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again."
“Verification failed - The connection to iCloud timed out."
“Unable to contact the iMessage server. Try again."
This iPad Air is a replacement from Apple (quite possibly a refurbished one) that I received in November 2014, after the previous model developed a malfunctioning touchscreen in one corner. It’s worth mentioning that my iPhone and Mac are completely unaffected by any issues, and can also be signed in and out of Messages and FaceTime without a hitch.
I’ve tried an awful lot of things in an attempt to get Messages and FaceTime to sign in successfully on the iPad Air, none of which have worked, and many of which I have tried multiple times.[1]
Things I have tried in an attempt to activate Messages and FaceTime
connecting to different wifi in multiple locations (work and home) and Personal Hotspot from iPhone
signing into Messages and FaceTime with different Apple IDs (these won’t activate Messages and FaceTime either)
wiping iPad with normal restore
wiping iPad with DFU restore
resetting network settings (both after fresh install and after backup restore)
restoring from an October 2014 backup (still have to sign into Messages and FaceTime, still don’t work)
turning off the automatic timezone setting and setting the date and time manually, even though it was correct anyway
deselecting phone number and @me.com so purely using @icloud.com to sign in
running the activation process through VPN connections via London and New York
changing DNS on wifi to 8.8.8.8
updating to iOS 8.2 beta 4
I would love to hear from anybody who can provide the solution as to why Messages and FaceTime just won’t activate. Apple won't provide free support on this as the iPad is now out of warranty.
