I would connect it by usb to the computer and restore the firmware from itunes

  • How to connect new Apple TV to analogue amplifier?

    Hi,
    I can use HDMI to connect 2nd gen Apple TV to my HDTV, but would like to use separate stereo speakers. These speakers are connected to an amplifier that only has analogue inputs (no digital optical or HDMI). What is the easiest workaround for this?
    Thanks.

    Does your TV have analog out? If so, that's probably the easiest way. If not, you may be out of luck.

  • HT204053 When I try to login to my apple ID on my iphone 4 to use facetime, it will not work and tells me to check my connection?  I have even tried creating a new apple ID but the same message appears

    When I try to log onto my Apple ID to use facetime, it will not work and tells me to check my connection.  I have even tried creating a new apple ID but the same message appears.  I do not understand why this is happening, could anyone help me resolve this issue it is very frusterating that I can not enable facetime or imessage.

    I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.

  • New apple tv will not connect

    I have just installed my new apple TV, but I cannot get contact with the apple servers.
    I'm using a wired network, and it automatically get's IP and DNS, but when I try to upgrade or connect to iTunes, it tell me to try later.
    I have seen others suggest manually to change the DNS, and have tryed a few of the suggested IP's but the same result.
    Have also restared my router.
    So what should I try next?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • New Apple TV will not connect to WiFI.

    I have a brand new Apple TV. When I first set it up it connected to my Airport Extrement WiFi with no problem. A few hours later it will not connect to any WiFi. It does not see any WiFi available. I have rest it. Reset my WiFi. Nothing works.

    ZHall55,
    Regarding the update issue: I have seen other users saying they cannot update with the ethernet cable but has worked when they have removed the cable and updated using WiFI, then reconnected the ethernet and it worked fine.  Try it and see.
    regards

  • New Apple Tv will not connect with iPad Air 2

    My new Apple TV will not recognize my iPad Air or Air 2, but will recognize all other devices in the house (iPhone 5c, 5s,  6, iPad mini, MacBook, etc).  What am I missing that the new Airs will not connect? All software is up to date. they are on same network.

    Also, make sure that all devices are on the same Wi-Fi network (e.g. not on a "guest" connection), and verify the ATV settings to see that AirPlay (and HomeSharing while you're at it) are turned on.

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
    Thanks for your help though!

  • My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired and i have forgotten the password that was attached to it! I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac?! HELP!

    My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired and i have forgotten the password that was attached to it! I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac with all my pictures etc on!?! HELP!

    My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired
    They don't expire. As far as anyone knows Apple IDs live on forever - if you forgot its password use https://iforgot.apple.com. Good luck with the answers to whatever security questions it asks.
    ... I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac with all my pictures etc on!?!
    Right! That's the reason you do not create a new Apple ID.
    As far as Apple is concerned a new Apple ID is a completely different user, with absolutely, positively no access to anything available to any other Apple ID.
    Concentrate your efforts on resetting the password to your old Apple ID. It has not expired, and is the only way to use all your existing iTunes purchases, App Store purchases, computer authorizations... etc. Forget about the new Apple ID you just created.

  • Hi I just got my new Apple TV and I cant figure out how to connect it with My MacBook Air (11-inch, Late 2010- Processor  1.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) OSX Version 10.8

    Hi
    Hi I just got my new Apple TV and I cant figure out how to connect it with My MacBook Air (11-inch, Late 2010- Processor  1.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) OSX Version 10.8

    Are you referring to mirroring or you just unable to set up homesharing.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

    Hi, stig2013. 
    I would recommend the steps in the article below.  See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If you are receiving an error message, find the exact error number that you recieved in the article below and process the steps. 
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
