  • Apple TV is working but no picture.

    Apple TV not working properly. My iphone remote sees it, so does iTunes. I can even add content to it via iTunes. But no matter how I try to reset it all I get is a big red screen once it boots completely. I get the Apple logo while the amber light is blinking then nothing and then the red screen. What is going on??? I have tried to unplug it and re plug it again with no luck. I have also reset it through the remote control, no luck.
    It has been connected via HDMI since I purchased it and it was working flawlessly before the 3.0 upgrade.

    I suspect you've already tried these steps:
    If your TV screen appears fuzzy or black (you see no video)
    * When you connect power, check to make sure the LED turns on. If the LED is not on, then verify with a known good power outlet or connect something else to the outlet you're using for Apple TV and make sure it works (such as a lamp or clock).
    * Make sure you're using the correct video cables and that they are connected firmly to Apple TV and to your TV.
    * Make sure the input setting you've selected on your TV matches the input you have your video cables connected to. See the documentation that came with your TV for more information.
    * If you are connected via HDMI, try unplugging and replugging your HDMI cable.
    * If HDMI isn't working for you - then try component instead. Read more about HDMI vs component video.
    If your TV screen still appears fuzzy or black, you may need to select a video mode your TV supports.
    To select a video mode:
    1. Press and hold both Menu and Menu up/scroll on the Apple Remote for about 6 seconds. Apple TV will cycle through different display resolutions.
    2. When Apple TV reaches an acceptable display resolution and "If you can see the Apple logo, select OK" appears on your TV screen, press the Play button on the Remote.

  • HT3180 My Apple TV turns on but no image on TV screen

    My Apple TV has been unplug over 30 sec. or restart by using 3,4 button on remote but still no image on TV screen. The LED light blinking for a while and turn on for long without blinking. No image shown on screen.
    I have used for several times from new without problem on previous.

    You may need to grab a micro usb cable and restore in iTunes.

  • TS5148 Apple TV turns on with no picture...pulling power only solution

    Every time I switch to my Apple TV I get a blank screen on the TV an no amount of button pushing or TV "changes" fixes it. Only fix is to pull the power plug on the ATV.
    Ideas?

    Sorry, I updated another thread I was a part of but didn't update my own thread.....ughhh!
    I updated all of my ATV 2's and 3's to the latest firmware when it was released and have been problem free since. I do believe the major issue of not being able to connect after a period of inactivity has been corrected with the latest ATV firmware.
    I can look at my network connection table using "netstat -an" in a CMD window and I do not see the massive number of connections I saw before the update.
    Here is a link to the other thread I was referring to above:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19952545#19952545
    Have you applied the latest firmware updates to your ATV 3's?

  • HT4437 I have sound but no picture using my Apple TV

    I am trying to watch sky sports from my iPad using the Apple TV, I have sound but no picture?

    When I first turn it on I have sound and picture. After a couple min screen goes black but there is sound. Doesn't matter what I'm watching, Netflix, Hulu, movies from iTunes. We have unplugged, rebooted and prayed to the Aplle TV. Sometimes it works, sometimes no. I see people are having trouble since update.

  • TS3595 Greetings.When T connect ipod touch 4 gen.to computer,picture of an apple comes on but no picture of a connection.So I can't communicate with computer.

    When I connect ipod touch(4th gen.) to desk top computer,picture of an apple comes on but no picture of a connection.But computer makes a sound .Thank you.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)
