I have apple TV 2 and I am on a network requiring a password.The apple tv has established a connection which was confirmed by my provider. however i cannot log on and my provider tells me I need a browser to request the password and id.

apple tv has connected to the network but it does not ask for a password therfore I cannot log on. MY provider confirmed that i am connected but says that i need a browser that will ask for my id and Password for the network so I can log on. please help.

AppleTV does not have a browser so it cannot connect to services requiring a browser based authentication to set up the connection.
It is designed to connect to standard wifi connections where the network name and password are entered in the network settings for AppleTV.
Browser based authentication systems only generally work with computers/smartphones or tablets.

  • Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

    Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

    You can't do that.
    And before you decide to store any music that you own on a computer at work, talk to your IT department. Many organizations do not permit it for legal reasons. Standard policies are that anything stored on company owned computers is the property of the company. It could not be legally stored on their machines unless you transfer the licenses and all copies, physical and digital, to the company, meaning you no longer own the music. If they were to be audited and could not prove that they own the music, they would be subject to copyright violation penalties. Just use your iPod when you're at the office if you want to listen to music.

    I have tried from so many forms. This is so frustrating. Thank for everyone/anyone who wants to help. So this is what happened: I had to uninstall my previous sqlserver 2012(which worked great) for some reason, and I uninstalled everything from that download.
    Then I installed the trial edition of sql server 2012 (64 Bit) and It wouldn't connect to the database. (Error mentioned above.) My local DB is COWBOYS. (COWBOYS is also my computer name.) After this, I have tried downloading sqlexpress and sqlserver 64bit
    many times and cannot connect to my local DB. 
    How do I connect to my Local DB? 
    Also, I think this might help: (When I run sqlserve.exe, which I was able to find in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\LocalDB\Binn, I get an error: Your SQL server installation is either corrupt or has been tampered with(Error getting
    instance ID from name). Please uninstall then re-run setup to correct this problem.
    I would happily re install it, if it wasn't my 20th time.
    I don't have any remote connections, I don't use username/password, only window authentication. I work mostly on visual studio, but without able to store /retrieve data, I don't know how to survive.
    May be the solution is very simple, but I am too frustrated. 
    Some of the things I have tried:
    From a command prompt, enter one of the following commands:
    net start "SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER)" OR 
    net start "SQL Server Agent(instancename)"(for instance)
    on my sql configuration, I cannot start anything because there is nothing there to start. I can post more details, if that would help. Also, some more details about the error:

    Any one that can help me, I will be greatful. Thank you so much. p.s. please ask me anything if you have any questions.

    It sounds like there are a couple things going on here.  First check if you have a successful install of SQL Server, then we'll figure out the connection issues.
    Can you launch SQL Server Configuration Manager and check for SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) if default instance or SQL Server (other name) if you've configured your instance as a named instance.  Once you find this, make sure the service is started. 
    If not started, try to start it and see if it throws an error.  If you get an error, post the error message your hitting.  If the service starts, you can then launch SSMS and try to connect.  If you have a default instance, you can use the machine
    name in the connection dialog.  Ex:  "COWBOYS" where Cowboys is the machine name.  However, if you named the SQL Server instance during install, you'll need to connect using the machine\instance format.  Ex:  COWBOYS\Romo (where Romo
    is the instance name you set during install).
    You can also look at the summary.txt file in the SQL Server setup error logs to see what happened on the most recent install.  Past install history is archived in the log folder if you need to dig those up to help troubleshoot, but the most
    recent one may help get to the bottom of it if there is an issue with setup detecting a prior instance that needs to be repaired.

  • A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.

    A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The
    server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26- Error:Locating Server\instance Specified)
    How Can i solve this?

    1. Make sure SQL Server Service is running
    2. If a named instance, make sure SQL Server browser service is running
    3. Make sure SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections
    4. Examine the SQL Server error log for messages confirming that SQL is listening on the expected network interfaces and ports
    5. Test server connectivity with PING from the client machine
    6. Test port connectivity using TELNET or PowerShell to the server and port (from step 4) from the client machine.  For example
    a. TELNET <server-name> 1433
    b. PowerShell: 1433 | % { echo ((new-object Net.Sockets.TcpClient).Connect("YourServerName",$_)) "server listening on TCP port $_" }
    7. Check firewall settings if step 5 or 6 connectivity test fails

    I synced my original Apple TV with my MacBook Pro which was stolen.  I now want to get the tunes on my Apple TV to my new macbook pro.  Is that possible?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are referring to the first generation Apple TV, then you cannot sync content which is stored on its hard drive back to iTunes.

  • My apple tv has a hardwire connection but the apps are all unavailable

    I have my apple tv connected to the internet via an ethernet cable and I can access iTunes and play videos and songs from my Apple account, however when I go to any of the apps, they all say that they are unavailable and that I should try again later. This has been going on for a couple of days. I have updated my software, and restated it multiple times. What do I do?

    Try a reset and if it persists a restore (this is done via settings)

  • How can I get songs to copy to my iPod when my computer is already authorized I get a message that states I cannot copy those songs because it tells me I need to authorize my computer?

    I get the following message when I sync my iPod Touch to my macbook in an attempt to copy songs to the iPod:
    Some of the items in the iTunes library, including “----------”, were not copied to the iPod “------------------- iPod” because you are not authorized for then on this computer. To authorize this computer for items purchased  from the iTunes Store, choose Store > Authorize This Computer
    Then when I go to the iTunes Store and authorize my computer, it tells me that it is already authorized. I sure would like to get those 45 songs onto my iPod.

    Hello jutrzopx,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Can you play those tracks, the tracks that you’re unable to sync to the iPod, in iTunes? Make sure that you’ve authorized the computer to play purchases from each Apple ID that you've used with the iTunes Store, as shown in the article linked below.
    iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
    Authorize using the correct account name
    The items you're trying to play might have been purchased using a different iTunes Store account. To determine which account was used to purchase an item, follow these steps:
    Select a purchased song in your library and choose File > Get Info.
    Click the Summary tab. Note the Account Name that appears in the list. This is the account name (Apple ID) you'll need to use when authorizing your computer to play this purchase.
    Note: The account name that appears is the one you used when purchasing the item and does not change if the account name (Apple ID) changes.
    If you've authorized the Apple ID that is shown in the Summary tab, you can check the purchase history for that Apple ID from Store > View My Account. If your purchase history does not reflect the purchase of the items in your iTunes library, consider any other Apple ID you may have created, and authorize the computer for your additional Apple ID.
    If you forgot the password to one of your accounts, you can recover it using Apple's password-recovery website.
    The article provides additional troubleshooting suggestions that may resolve the issue, If that doesn’t take care of it.

  • How do I merge my apple ID to my iCloud account (which was not created by the email sync offer from an OS device)

    I got an iphone.
    I created an iTunes account.
    When iCloud was release, I went to icloud.com and created myself an account.
    When I linked that account to my phone and wanted to sync the email, it ask me to choose an icloud ID. 
    Obviously, I want to use the account I created, but it wont let me use my username cause it was already taken...
    ''BY ME''
    So how do I merge it?
    ...or how do I delete this account and recreated with the ios email option?
    Thank you
    ''By the way, I noticed that I had a iTunes/iClouds sync + the single iCloud sync, wich double all of my infos (calender, notes, contacts, etc...) in the phone and it bugs me very much''

    You would have to delete your account from your device first, then change your Apple ID at http://appleid.apple.com (if not already happened) and then add your account again using your new email address.
