I just got Apple TV today. Please help.
I can't connect the Remote App to the Apple TV. I just wanted to stream from the phone to the device. My computer is not wireless. My apple tv sits next to my router. If I plug the router into the ATV it does see my computer itunes but then the ATV is not on WIFI and I assumed that was why the remote app would not connect. I unplugged the network connection to the ATV and setup it up wireless but the app still does not find the device. Please help. Thanks in advance.

First, temporarily forget about the Remote app and use the silver remote that came with the ATV. We'll worry about the Remote app later.

Power up the ATV and go to settings/network (or something like that, I forget the exact wording) and set up your WiFi network connection. Then connect your iPhone to the same WiFi network and you'll be good to go. On the iPhone, you should see the Airplay icon (see below). You use that icon to select the ATV.

Wha? How in the world do you do that? The ATV has an HDMI connector but the router has Ethernet connectors.

I was thinking maybe iOS 7 on wednesday would fix it but I'm not sure?
Have you restarted your device?
Have you reset your device?
Have you done ANY troubleshooting on your own yet?
Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails (or you haven't tried a dang thing yet)
Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.
Relaunch the App and try again.
Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem. -
New iPod Nano 6th generation just got it going today. It is fully charged but shuts off a few seconds into a song, what do I do?
I received mine yesterday as replacement for 1st generation and yes I had exactly the same problem.
I don't think it is anything to do with headphone plug [jack].
I played around with the settings and have just managed to listen to three hours without problem.
Music settings; shake to shuttle off, sound check off, double click - play/pause, audio cross fade and group compilation on. Can't be all these but trial and error as to which one - unfortunately it came without instructions.
The only other thing was that I had it in pocket while i was moving whereas yesterday I was sat at desk with nano at rest.

cont contact apple server error please help with ipad touch 4. im just fed up with apple please help me because why is it only apple with these kind of problems?
If you mean updae server
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Otherwise what server are you talking about -
My Iphone got wet and now when I turn it on it will not go past the apple logo. Please help.
Hi,
My Iphone got wet and now when I turn it on it will not go past the apple logo. Please help.Take it in for service or most likely out of warranty replacement. Water damage voids your warranty so you will need to pay towards the replacement.
Cheers

I restarted my iPad, but it is stuck on the apple logo. Please help.
If a reset doesn't work, you will have to try and force the iPad into Recovery Mode (data will be lost)
1. Turn off iPad
2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad -

Just got Apple TV yesterday. Was so pleased with the ease of setup. It all works nicely with my Sony Bravia TV. But I decided I hated that little ATV remote and saw where I could get Remote App for my iPad. Trying to get that setup. I hope I can make my issue clear. I can get control of my iTunes library from my MBP but what I really want is the main ATV screen so I can get into Netflix. I setup a Netflix acct and want the ease of browsing thru my iPad on my tv screen using Remote App. I changed to that in my ATV settings but my ATV remote is still controlling. When I go into Remote App on my iPad, I don't know how to find the ATV main screen. Can anyone help.
ATV 3rd genAppleTv cannot use external drives. The USB port is for diagnostics.
Dismantling AppleTV will invalidate any warranty, and you can't just swap a larger drive for the existing one. It needs more work/preparation and may cost you money in equipment/tools.
Yes there are unofficial guides/tutorials out there that describe how to do it but you will require a fair amount of knowledge to get it done using command line software tools.
Frankly the easiest thing - that's also designed to work - is to stream your media from a USB drive attached to your computer. Many of us do it, and provided your network connection is ok it works fine.
I have my itunes libray on an external drive, and stream 95% of stuff to several 40GB AppleTVs. Unless you can't run the computer frequently, the 160GB isn't that much more beneficial, and i have one but mainly stream to it.

Just got iphone 5s today but fingerprint wont complete just keeps saying try again - has anyone else had this problem?
Hey Lewis1306,
Thanks for the question, and congrats on the new iPhone 5s!
I understand you are experiencing issues with Touch ID. The following article provides some troubleshooting steps that may be helpful:
iPhone 5s: Using Touch ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5883
Resolving issues with Touch ID
1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iOS.
2. Ensure that your fingers and the Home button are clean and dry.*
Note: Cover the Home button completely. Don't tap too quickly, don't press down hard, and don't move your finger while Touch ID is scanning. Make sure that your finger touches the metal ring around the Home button.
3. If you are using a protective case or screen protector, it must leave the Home button and the surrounding ring completely unobscured. If it doesn't, remove the case or screen protector and try again.
4. Tap Settings > General > Touch ID & Passcode > Touch ID and verify that:
- iPhone Unlock or iTunes & App Store is enabled.
- One or more fingerprints have been enrolled.
5. If one finger isn't working, tap Edit in Settings > General > Touch ID & Passcode > Touch ID > Edit to delete and then reenroll the finger.
6. If that finger still isn't working, try enrolling a different finger.
7. If you are unable to enroll any of your fingers, take your iPhone 5s to an Apple Retail Store, Apple Authorized Service Provider, or contact AppleCare for further assistance.
* Moisture, lotions, sweat, oils, cuts, or dry skin may affect fingerprint recognition. Certain activities can also temporarily affect fingerprint recognition, including exercising, showering, swimming, cooking, or other conditions or changes that affect your fingerprint.
Thanks,
Matt M. -
My iPad has been stolen. Someone broke into my house on Tuesday. I have already tried locking it through icloud. I have reported this to the authorities but they cannot do much unless I give them the serial number to the iPad. With the serial number they can put it into a database and send that inormation to pawn shops, so i the theie tries to pawn it, the pawn shop employeee can convscate the iPad and hand it over to the authorites. I need the serial number to report it to the authorities. I dont have the box it came in or the receipt and its not on my itunes on the computer because I didnt use it or music, just pictures. Can someone please help??? btw, some words are misspelled becasue the letter that comes ater the letter E, doesnt work on my keybord.

I don't know my rescue email and security password.i just added an alternative email address but it doesn't send there....also I just added 25$ on iTunes.please help!
The reset link will only send reset info to your rescue email address, an alternate email address is not used for account security. If you don't know what your rescue email address is (you won't be able to view/change it until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to view and/or change your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 -
