HT200126 "TV Shows" icon missing from Apple TV Main Menu

It appears that the Apple TV software update 5.3 has removed the "TV Shows" icon from the main menu.  Now, I no longer have AppleTV access to the TV shows I have purchased and I am unable to search/purchase other TV shows.  Has anyone similar findings?
Note:  Parental Controls are confirmed to have not hidden the "TV Shows" icon; in fact, the "TV Shows" icon does not appear in my Apple TV's Parental Controls settings.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
There appears to be a large increase in this type of problem at this time, it seems that that there is a problem at Apple's end, but I couldn't at all be sure.
There are no issues being reported at Apple’s System Status page, but this status may yet be updated and it may be you need to try again a little later.
This isn't affecting me here in the UK, where exactly are you.
So far I have noted users in the following locations having similar problems:
USA
If this is a problem at Apple’s end, it rarely happens, however when it does only Apple can fix it. When this has occurred previously it has usually been resolved in a few hours or slightly more.

  • Photos disappearing from apple tv main menu

    I have two apple tvs connected to one itunes via apple n wireless. Works well with the exception that the "photos" selection on the apple tv main menu disappears and i have to unplug the apple tv to get it to come back?? I have enough room on the disk and when i make changes i use the apply function - it still disappears on both apple tv's. By the way i have tons of extra space on one of them as it now has a 120GB drive - very cool.
    Please help

    If you connect to your computer in 'Streaming mode' then you will not see the photos menu item as you can't stream photos.
    Just make sure that when you want to access your photos that you are using the Apple TV as the source (Go to the main menu, select Settings, then sources and select the Apple TV and not your computer)

  • Airplay Icon missing from iTunes 11.0.2.26 (PC) and Genius Sidebar

    After upgrading to iTunes 11.0.2.26 my Airplay icon is missing. I've tried the simple fix that reportedly works where you switch to mini player, see the Airplay icon and then it stays when you switch to normal mode.
    Firstly the icon does appear but it is grayed out and only pops up a volume control. It does not detect, display, or allow you to select output devices, Second, it is still missing from the normal size window.
    This has been tried with and without restarting iTunes as well as reinstalling iTunes. I'd go for a downgrade but then it fails to work with the new iPads at all. I discovered that with my first iPad mini where it required an iTunes upgrade.
    Genious Sidebar
    I figured Id just downgrade to 10.6.3 to get the genius sidebar back afterwards. WRONG, it will not synch or do anything without the newer versions of the iTunes software. Genius sidebar was the best thing about the software and they kept taking it away, brought it back for a few versions, then took it away again. It was and remains my favorite way to shop for new music. The remaining so called genius functions are just plain lame.

    Otherwise completely unresponsive! what can be done to revive apple tv?

    That is telling that the Apple TV is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. This is done by connecting to iTunes via micro USB.

  • Creative Cloud icon disappeared from Apple Tool Bar after I installed some CC updates. Does somebody know what the problem can be?

    Creative Cloud icon disappeared from Apple Tool Bar after I installed some CC updates. Does somebody know what the problem can be?

    I had a similar issue. I closed the Cloud icon, and when I went to open it again, it just died.
    I uninstalled Adobe Creative Cloud, went to the Adobe CC download page and requested a trial copy of PS, being sure to enter my CC name and password.  It then reinstalled Adobe Creative Cloud, and all is working again (I hope).

  • Search Tab Goes Missing from the Left-hand Menu

    Hi, I am using Spotify version 3.1.0.1117 in my trusty Toshiba Thrive (AT100) that runs Android version 4.0.4. I think it has just updated to the latest Spotify version and I notice that after initialising, the Search tab would go missing from the left-hand menu after browsing my playlists and not come back. The tab lists would start from Browse, and so on. Anybody else having similar problem? Any help is kindly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    The triangle next to the main Playlists folder is pointing down.
    I set up a subfolder for a few streaming radio stations. The missing (and non-missing) playlists have not been put into a subfolder. They are all smart playlists (I don't know if that makes a difference).
    I have the latest Itunes. Should I try re-installing?

  • When clicking on the Finder icon in the dock the Main Menu grays out ... what's wrong ... how do I fix?

    Product: iMac, OS X 10.9.5 (13F34)
    Processor: 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 32 GB 160 MHz DDr3
    Storage: 3.12 TB Fusion Drive
    PROBLEMS:
    1. When clicking on the Finder icon in the dock, the main menu grays out and the window with documents, applications etc., does not pop up.
    2. iMac is not showing up in iCloud.com and, not syncing with my MacBook Pro, iPad Mini and iPhone.
    This situation seemed to appear after doing updates on my iMac.
    TROUBLESHOOTING I'VE TRIED:
    1. rebooted,
    2. repaired permissions,
    3. booted in safe-mode and let the basic tests run then rebooted to normal mode. Afterwards, the problem seemed to be corrected, however, it re-appeared shortly thereafter and still exists.

    Go to the Finder's General preference pane and reset the New Finder windows show: option.  Try changing it to some other folder, try it and then back again.
    If that doesn't jump start it try moving the com.apple.finder.plist file from your Home/Library/Preferences folder to the Desktop, reboot and then reset the Finder preferences.
    For Mavericks and Yosemite go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check the location setting for the iTunes Store is correct.
    You might also try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router.
    If you are still having problems try a restore.

  • Apple TV 3: TV Shows icon missing

    Hello, as I was looking at the home screen of my Apple TV 3 (with latest software, 5.1.1 (5433)) the TV Shows icon disappeared.  This happened just a few moments ago.
    I now only have Movies, Music, Computers and Settings on the top row of icons.
    I live in the UK and I am using an iTunes UK account.
    I have tried restarting the Apple TV, and signing out and back in to my iTunes account but neither action has fixed the problem.
    Any suggestions?

    Is it possible any of you rented a movie within the last 48 hours?
    I rented a movie for the first time ever yesterday then an hour or 2 ago when I went into movies it only showed that rental.
    I rebooted then it showed the rest of my movies but still no TV shows.
    Wonder if the rental I did has anything to do with the issue at the moment.

  • HT1551 Tv programmes icon missing on Apple TV

    My tv programmes icon is missing on my Apple TV?

    There are reports of TV Shows and/or Movies missing from users screens, initially it looked like this might be an issue in the UK only, but it may well be more widespread. It appears to be an issue that can't be fixed by the user, you will need to wait until this is resolved by Apple.
    If you have other icons missing you may have an entirely different issue.

  • Icon missing from System Preference on MacBook Pro. Please Help

    If you're running the OS version in your profile, you never had that icon. Assuming the profile is wrong, do as follows.
    Select
    View ▹ Customize...
    from the System Preferences menu bar. If the missing icon appears, check the box next to it, or click Show All. Then click Done.

  • Bootcamp Icon missing from system tray...

    On the 1st computer (iMac) that I installed BootCamp with Win 7, I have an icon in the lower left system tray for changing the booting choice.
    Today I installed BootCamp on my wife's new Mac Mini and the icon is missing from the system tray. While it was about 6 weeks ago that I put BootCamp on my iMac, I don't remember doing anything that cause the Windows system tray to display the boot choice icon for BootCamp/Win 7.
    Anyone have an idea about how I can get that icon to appear on the Mac Mini.
    Both systems are running Snow Leopard with the latest software.

    Macaby there are two separate components of Boot Camp. First is Assistant which runs on the Mac side of things from OS X. It creates/deletes the Windows partition which is necessary to install Windows. Next the Boot Camp Panel software which is installed once you have successfully installed and are running Windows. It allows tweaking of the Apple hardware from within Windows. It is installed using the OS X disc and does not jeopardize your installed Windows OS in any way. This disc also contains the hardware driver necessary to optimize the hardware in Windows. In my experience this disc has never started via autorun so you will most likely have to locate the Boot Camp folder and run the setup.exe file manually.
    Don't know how much your wife uses Windows but if it's running well enough then you may want to leave it alone. Check device manager in Windows for any red or yellow punctuation marks. This will indicate a potential driver issue in Windows. Also check the Windows Experience Index for performance issues. A 1 anywhere indicates a driver issue. If you have no driver issues and Windows is running well enough you may want to leave it at that.

  • Help please....phone icon missing from screen suddenly

    Hi,suddenly I looked at my home screen and it seemed different. I noticed that the phone option is missing from the bottom of the home screen. It is usually down with the icons "mail" "safari" and "ipod". Where did it go and how can I get it back???? Thanks...

    Hello szabc,
    Welcome to the Discussions Boards!
    ride1992 is correct. You may have moved the Phone icon to another page of your home screen. Fortunately the Phone icon is not one that can be deleted - only moved. Information for editing or resetting your home screen is found in the pages ride1992 mentioned.

  • Photos Beta Icon Missing from iCloud

    Starting yesterday I've tried to access the Photos beta through my iCloud account on a registered device (Macbook).
    On Chrome, the icon for Photos beta is present, but clicking in it only resulted in an error message.... Which I was just about to paste but now the icon is missing completely. The icon is also missing from Safari.
    Any thoughts or solutions from anyone else experience this? I am also told periodically by my 6 plus that the library hasn't synced in xx number of days, but I see from the forums that this another issue.
    Thanks.

    I'm getting the same problem in Safari.
    Have you sent the error report to Apple? Perhaps it will help to get the problem fixed.
    The beta page - https://beta.icloud.com  is giving the same error as https://www.icloud.com
    Perhaps this is a good sign, that Apple is working on the next release of iCloud Photo Library (Beta).
