HT1551 Unable to reset apple tv

I have restarted my apple tv by the apple remote and by unplugging it.  Both times it flashes its lightt and then the apple sign comes on the tv and then goes away, but nothing follows that. I have tried it several times with no luck. I unplugged the HDMI and the Power Cord and then waited a minute and plugged it back in, no response.  Any ideas?

Try holding menu and up arrow together for 6 secs to cycle screen resolutions in case it's firing up to an unusable one.
If no joy, you may need to restore:

  • TS3988 iPhone Disabled, iCloud id locked, Couldn't access/reset apple id!

    Hi there! I had created an apple id 2 months back. I logged in into icloud in my iPhone4S using that id and FIND MY IPHONE was enabled.
    Some days after I handed the iphone to my one of the relatives, it's display got damaged! As the iphone was passcode locked, they pressed so many wrong passwords causing iPhone to be disabled for some thousands of years!
    I tried restoring it. Restoring was successful but asked me to provide apple id and corresponding password.
    I couldn't remember the password
    I tired very hard to remember other things to reset apple id password, but couldn't!
    I think the iphone is now gonna be just a show piece and I am very sad with that!
    I can't login or reset apple id/password. But I can provide apple my iPhone's IMEI number, it's MAC address, currently associated apple id, last login date(tentative) and other details.
    Can anybody give me a way out or apple, can you please help me to activate my iPhone? I will be thank full to you!
    Waiting a reply ...

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • Unable to restore Apple TV

    Do we need a original Mircro-USB cable from Apple in order to restore tye Apple TV through iTunes? As I have tried using a cable from my portable hard drive but it keep telling me that my network got problem or unable to contact Apple Store !!! Thanks.

    You can restore by going to settings - general - reset (and selecting restore). However, if you only see the image of USB or Apple logo then the device is in recovery mode and needs to be restored through iTunes
    Make sure there are no VPNs running, check firewall and any security software installed. Try Ethernet to rule out wifi issues

  • How to reset apple ID on ipad

    I have a ipad, iphone, and imac. I just changed my apple id login. I was able to get my iphone working correctely, but I am unable to reset my ipad to the new apple id login. It is stuck in the old apple id login name, and is greyed out so I am unable to type the new one in. I also tried to type the old password for the old apple id and it no longer works. So I am unable to login to icloud on my ipad.

    Furthermore, I cannot do anything with my ipad cause it keeps asking me for the old password which doesn't work so its locked in that. I was able to reset the ipad but that didn't work. I tried to reset and erase completely but it won't let me do it cause it asks for the old password.

  • I am unable to reset my iphone

    I am unable to reset my iphone

    This is a reset... press the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Is that what you are trying to do?

  • HT1212 Hi, I am unable to reset all settings.. I don't remember the pass code.. I am able to reset network settings and other settings. Can someone please gelp

    Hi, I am unable to reset all settings.. I don't remember the pass code.. I am able to reset network settings and other settings. Can someone please help

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
    You may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode
