HT1600 apple tv latest update is asking me to plug to itunes.

I tried this morning to update my apple TV. I went through the process and then this huge itunes logo and lightening connector pic appeared on my screen, and its still on. i guess its asking me to connect to itunes, and now i can,t even get access to my apple TV. I dont know what to do. Can somebody help?

Same thing happend to me. I finally went to Best Buy and purchased another $20 cable (I have a box full of apple cables because they like to change them often). It's a USB to micro. I unpluged the apple tv and pluged in the cable. Then I plugged the power back in. I opened iTunes and ran the update. After 15 minutes, it gave an error. Then I unpluged the power from the Apple TV and ran the update again. Now it's ready for the login. But Wait. Now it's not accepting my password for the wireless network. I've wasted hours and still no success.

    Similar problem here.  iTunes11 notified me it was available.  However, auto-update failed.  So, I downloaded for manual update.  That failed with "permission" message.  I am administrator on this machine (WIN7).  I tried uninstalling old version, but it failed with same permission issue.  I now can't start iTunes... throws permission message.  So, I'm completely dead in the water.  Does this stuff get tested before it's shipped?

  • I updated to iOS 7.0.4 and on completion it asked me to plug into iTunes, why?

    I downloaded the new iOS 7.0.4 update to my iPhone 4S and on completion it is asking me to plug into iTunes! Why??

    Not clear what you mean by "on completion" or how you are being "asked to" connect to iTunes. 
    Usually this means that the update failed, with the phone crashing and entering recovery mode, requiring that you restore it using iTunes.  There are many reasons for this, the most common being that the phone was previously jailbroken.

    Does iTunes see your phone?
    Do you have a PC or a Mac?

  • Apple TV Latest Update Troubles Fixed - Sept 20th, 2013

    I found a micro USB cable from my wife's old, no iphone, phone charger. Plugged in the ATV to my iMac. Clicked Restore in iTunes and Boom! Fixed!
    I was locked out and It was a headache until I found that cord. I have no idea why I needed a cord in the first place. Wifi should of worked, but it kept telling me to plug into iTunes. Weird!

    i have huge box of cables--can't believe how many USB cables i have but no mini.  off to Best buy.  i have two ATVs.  one upgraded just fine and is in playing iradio.  I upgraded my Ipad 3 to IOS 7 first day too and no issues so i'm lucky i guess.  We'll see how this works  out but better than a 3 hour round trip to Apple store.

  • Iphone 4 unresponsive and flashes apple logo but itunes wont recognise it . when plugged into the mains it turns onto recovery mode and asks to be plugged into itunes, when i unplug it from the mains it turns straight off again

    please help! my iphone randomly went unresponsive, when plugged into itunes it flashes apple logo and itunes doesnt recognise it and when plugged into the mains its in recovery mode, asks to be connected to itunes, but immediately turns off when unplugged from mains

    You could try to do a hard reset, sometimes resetting the phone helps. Hold down the sleep/wake button on the top and the home button until you see the apple logo, this make take a minute or two but this might help.

  • Updated to 7.0.6 on my iPhone 5s and now my phone is all out of whack. It won't sync the new playlists I added after the update though when it's plugged into iTunes it says it's synced. Help please!

    So I updated my iPhone 5s to version 7.0.6 yesterday, and now my iPhone music isn't working properly. It won't sync the playlists that I added after the update though when it's plugged in on iTunes it says that the music is synced. When I select a song in a playlist on the phone it shuffles through the playlists for like 3 seconds and picks a totally different song to play. I tried reinstalling iTunes, I tried restoring the iPhone, is it just a bug with the update? Nothing works. Any solutions are welcome.

    DFU mode? How do I do that? So far the only thing I can do is hold down both buttons to power it on and nothing is on the screen and it wont reconize on my computer....

  • HT1600 Apple TV not updating?

    Hello everyone!
    I wanted to use the airplay mirroring feature of the 5.1 update but My Apple TV does not seem to want to update. The software is currently at 4.3, obviously it has not been updated in awhile. Every time I click to update the software it says there is no updates available. Researching online has not helped me with this issue
    This Apple TV was "inherited" from my older brother who is notorious for jail breaking his apple products. However, i am unsure if it is infact jail broken. I was hoping that I could do a quick restore of the Apple TV and everything would be fixed. But, to no avail did this work. Rather disappointing if you ask me. I have a MacBook Pro and I was also wondering if I could update it from there.
    Any and all information will be great!

    What is showing up on the main menu screen? To try a restore through your MBP grab a micro usb cable and connect via iTunes. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4367?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    If it is jailbroken that does open up the device to issues and you will not get support here or from Apple.

  • My Apple TV is showing a UBS connector to plug into iTunes on screen.  Occured after I updated Apple TV.  Doesnt work.

    After updated Apple TV, all I get is a screen showing a USB port connecting to iTunes.  After restarting several times, same screen comes up.  Power light is blinking on front.  What do I do?  Help!

    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)

  • I purchased a moive on apple tv (latest generation) and its not on my mac iTunes

    i purchased a movie on my apple tv but when i tried to transfer it to another device i didnt find it in my itunes mac pro. is there a way to transfer movies purchased on apple tv to my mac?

    I do not think so but you should be able to re download from the iTunes Store onto your MacBookPro then you can sync onto the other devices.
    This link should help

  • Apple TV not updating after new content is added to iTunes

    Whenever a new podcast is downloaded or a movie is added to iTunes I have to right click the ATV in the source list and tell it to sync before it become available on the ATV. The ATV's sync settings are set to custom with nothing selected so everything streams and nothing copies over.
    Is there a way to stream everything but have it automatically sync every time something new is added to iTunes?
    Thanks.

    To my knowledge the tv does automatically update itself, although it may not always be as often as you would like. I have 5 tv's all of which auto update and are set up pretty much the same as yours with custom sync but only sync photos and a very small amount of audio. Oddly enough we do have one of the tv's which will auto update immediately after adding content in itunes, ironically I find it a complete pain in the rear, as it will begin to update before I've actually finished updating itunes. (ie, if I add a movie, it will start to update the tv, but it does so before I get chance to add tags to the video, which then causes another update)
    The only difference I can see between this tv and the others is that it does have 2 movies synced to it, whereas all the others have none.

  • Phone is asking me to plug into iTunes when I power up

    Here is the problem....I unfortunately did not back up all my contacts and they are not saved on my sim card. When i was using my phone it turned off on me and I tried to power back on and instead of the phone turning back on like usual it put a symbol on the screen showing me I needed to plug my phone into iTunes so I did and it told that it had to do a restore and it will erase all my data, but before I went ahead with it I some how got it to turn on and work for a while but stupid me didn't back up my info. Now after using for about 4 hours it happened again so at this point I can not get it to work I have to do a restore. So I go ahead with it and it gets to the point where it says waiting for Iphone and never does anything else after that I left it on for 10 hours to see if it worked and did anything, NOTHING I can not figure out what to do? So at this point its trying to do something but then gets to the point where it needs the Iphone to talk back to the computer and never does anything......has anyone else had this problem and what do I do? I haven't had a phone for 3 days now HELPPP PLEASEEEEE

    I have the exact same problem.
