If you were using iOS 7 beta it has expired. If you're a developer go to the Developer forums and downlad 7.0.2. If you aren't a developer you're going to have to find solutions elsewhere. There's a discussion on this here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5415804?tstart=0.

What is your operating system? Reader version? Are these local or online PDFs? If online, in what browser?

try another cable it's a std cable that most consumer electronic use
if that does not help then I would try to connect it by a microUSB cable to see if I could restore the firmware from a computer running itunes
if that does not help then I would say that the appletv have died

I am trying to export a video from Premiere Pro. I have both audio and video checked and the sequence is active but only the audio exports. There is no video at all. Can anyone tell me how to get the video to export. It was working fine until today.

Premiere Pro CC has been working fine until today. I have completed my sequence and it is active. I have both audio and video checked when I am exporting using H.264 with Match Source Hi bitrate. I am choosing entire sequence. The audio exports but the video and title does not. Can anyone tell me how to troubleshoot this so I can complete this project? Please!

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Hi there I have a iPhone 3G and it was with O2 but needed to go onto 3 network so someone on my local market unlocked it and the phone was working fine until I tried to update it through iTunes and it always now stops loading towards the end with an error is there a way to get the phone working again please.

Shame you had the iPhone hacked as O2 usually unlock their customers iPhones happily.
We cannot discuss your problem as it is in breach of the Ts&Cs you agreed to on registering
However hint ....you have probably trashed it

I have Iphone 4 it was work fine in my country (bahrain) i went to UK and i change sim card to O2 and when i came back it doesn't work in my country i think because i update the carrier in Uk its my carrier now 10.0 and the others in my country is 9.0

We had the same problem, but figure out the solution.
You MUST have at least 1 song added to your ITUNE! After you add a free song, then everything else should work as normal!
Hope this helps!

IPhone 4S was working fine until recenty after updating the software to the 5.1 version

My iPhone 4s was working fine until I recently updated the software to version 5.1, now it locks up on nearly any screen and reverts back to the main screen. Even in settings, if I go in a few tabs in settings all of a sudden it takes me back to the main screen. I have done a total reset on the phone and it has not helped.
Also, it is now completely frying the battery goes from 100% to 35% in about 4 hours. I have killed all apps running and it is still hot and using up the battery.

I have done all of the above suggested restart, reset and restores using iTunes and without. No luck.
What I have found is that under Settings; General; About; Diagnostics & Usage; there is an error message populating every single minute that says low memory. It appears that the reset back to the main screen coincides with this error message. I have very little data stored on the phone, 13 Gig available.
How does one go about emptying this memory?

Hi F1N5G10,
Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you don't have the AirPlay option on your iOS devices. Restarting your Apple TV and iOS devices was a good first step, and you can find some additional tips to guide your troubleshooting at this link:

I bought a factory unlocked iphone 4s. it was working fine but when i upgraded it to iOS 5.1 it gave me "no sim" message. so when i tried to restore the iphone setting it is giving me now "ICCID: unknown" message please help. any ideas?

i bought a factory unlocked iphone 4s. it was working fine but when i upgraded it to iOS 5.1 it gave me "no sim" message.
so i tried then to restore the iphone using itunes but it got worse it is giving me now "ICCID: unknown" message please help. any ideas?

Please define "factory unlocked". The term is basically meaningless. iPhones are sold either carrier locked or unlocked. Some carriers will unlock them after a period of time upon meeting certain requirements and paying a fee.
There are lots of places that will "factory unlock" an iPhone. This basically translates to "hack". This can cause permanent damage to the phone. Best case scenario is these phones will re-lock to the original carrier on an update or restore. Worst case it they become expensive bricks.
ICCID unknown indicates a critical failure. There is no way to resolve this other than taking it in to Apple and getting the phone replaced. It's very possible that the phone was hacked and attempting to update has now killed it.
Where, EXACTLY, did you get this phone?

So I just bought an iPhone 5s and Touch ID was working fine until the software update is that a bug ? Because I don't think my home button broke

Have not heard of that but here is what I would do - test after each step to see if the problem is solved
1. Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
2. If that does not work - back up to iTunes and restore to factory settings
3. Check to see if the problem is resolved before restoring from backup

I did get a "server busy" message when I loaded quicktime, but I'm not sure if it is related or not since I've been seeing that over the last couple of days, I can't remember if it came before iTunes stopped working or not. That message reads "This action cannot be completed because the other program is busy. Choose 'switch to' to activate the busy program and correct the problem." My options then are to choose switch to or retry. When I press "switch to" my Start menu opens, and nothing appears to happen when I select retry.
that's an odd sort of a message (or series of messages).
hmmmmm. let's try an experiment aimed at working out if there's a program interfering with the QuickTime (which is in turn causing grief with your iTunes).
try a selective startup using MSCONFIG, with just the itunes and QuickTime background processes enabled, as per the following document:
Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows
does QT open without the strange message after the selective startup?
does iTunes launch properly?

- Charge the iPod for half an hour. Then reset the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- if still not working, connect to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod, restore the iPod.
- If still problem, place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod. For recovery mod see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

After the restore did the phone work properly for a while? Say, a day or so?
If so it is possible you have an app that doesn't let go of memory properly. I reboot my iPhone ( hold sleep/wake and hole till you see the apple logo) every few days. This resets the memory. The iPhone OS has doesn't seem to mange memory very well yet. So a reboot will help with that. I have had my phone almost slow to a stop before I started rebooting. Always reboot after installing a new app. Also do you close all pages in Safari when you are done? This is a good practice. Safari will run in the background and use processor time and drain your battery quicker. Create a new blank page then close all others when you are done browsing for a while. I have also found that certain web site that have animated images like weather maps will turn the phone into molasses. As soon as i close that page it gets faster.
If all of the above have no effect then as Tamara said it is time for a trip to the Genius bar.
Good luck
