ITunes and Apple TV not playing well with one another?

I updated to the latest version of iTunes and can no longer "share" any more with Apple TV. When I do get it to work,which is seldom, it will do so only very briefly before stopping in the middle of a song.  Even then, the transmission is of poor quality.  Any ideas why?

  • Since my IPOD Touch upgraded to IOS 8.1.2 it will not play well with my 2013 Charger's UConnect entertainment system. It will not build a library so I can not Browse or Shuffle. The only thing Is there a fix for UConnect issue?

    Since my IPOD Touch upgraded to IOS 8.1.2 it will not play well with my 2013 Charger's UConnect entertainment system. It will not build a library so I can not Browse or Shuffle. The only thing it does is list all the songs alphabetically when connected via USB.

    - Contact the manufacturer/go to their support site.
    - Sometimes this works
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    Sometimes and ISO update breaks compatibioity and a firmware update the the dock is required or an iOS update is required.
    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.

  • I downloaded a song to my itunes and it will not play.  How do I get it to work?

    I downloaded a song off of itunes and it will not play but indicates that it is downloaded.  Any thoughts on how to get it to work?

    Hi randybratton,
    If a specific song that was purchased on your iPhone won't transfer to iTunes on your computer, you may want to try redownloading it directly to your computer from the iTunes Store. You may find the following article helpful:

  • Can I get an older release of Firefox? 36.0 does not play well with Windows 7.

    Firefox 36.0.4 does not play well with Windows 7. If it opens at all, it freezes within a minute so the screen goes pale and I get the classic spinning circle of death. Then the header says (not responding).
    Ideally I would like to drop back to version 32 or 33, but 34 and 35 had fewer problems.
    Can I find older versions anywhere?

    You can [[Install an older version of Firefox]] any time. But which will cause significant security risk. So If you can't use the latest version of Firefox, we recommend that you use the latest version of another browser.
    If the latest version of Firefox is causing problems for you or you just don't like something about it, please give us feedback about it here:
    [https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback/ Submit your feedback and suggestions about Firefox]
    Anyway head for the ftp for older version but please be careful with these: ftp://ftp.eu.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/

  • I downloaded a show on itunes and it will not play the last 15 minutes.  It just stops and can't go any further.  How do I fix this?

    I downloaded a show on itunes and it will not play the last 15 minutes.  It just stops and will not go any further.  What can I do?  I am using a pc.

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • HT1657 I downloaded a film for rental from itunes and it will not play properly,why?

    I rented a film last evening The book of Kells and it will not play properly.  My computer has more than enough memory or whatever it needs and I am using an account I have used in the past with success.  The films starts, then stops, then speeds ahead like it is not successfully loaded.  Any suggestions?

    Where did you download it to and is it a purchase or rental.

  • Apple TV not working well with time capsule

    So, I have an apple time capsule which serves two functions: wifi base station and the repository for my massive iTunes library. I connect this via wifi to my Apple TV (not sure which generation it is). The media seems to play well when I play it on my computer, but the Apple TV has a very hard time playing it, sometimes not even showing pieces of media I know are there. Also, doing airplay from my computer or iPad to the Apple TV is very inconsistent. Also experience the same playing issue with netflix. I have recently resorted to watching most things on my iPad and experience no problems.
    Suggestions? One thing that comes to my mind is to do a factory settings reset on the Apple TV. Would that do anything?

    Hi zachfromind,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand you are having issues with content on your Apple TV. It sounds like you have everything set up correctly and you are very aware of how the content should be displayed and played. At this point yes, I would suggest restoring the Apple TV back to factory settings and then joining it back to your network and testing. It sounds like you are familiar with the process but you can use the following article for reference if needed.

  • I bought a movie on itunes and it will not play even after re-downloading it.

    I bought a movie on itunes, it would not play. I contacted apple support people, and they told me to delete and re download it, I did that and it still will not play, I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if my itunes isn't up to date, or maybe it's because I'm not trying to play it on an apple device. Whatever the case me be, I just really want to watch this movie, or get a refund.

    You should be able to play films on windows computers, if it wasn't compatible with it (e.g. you should have got an error if you tried to buy an HD film on non-HD compatible computer).
    The current version of iTunes is 11.4 - you can see if there are any updates available via the Help > Check For Updates menu option.
    Or you can download the current version of iTunes from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    What happens when you try to play the film, and do other videos that you have in your iTunes play ok ?
    If you can't get it to play but other videos play ok then contact iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

  • I purchased a movie on iTunes, and it is not playing

    I recently purchased the 2009 Star Trek movie on my iTunes account in SD. After the download of the movie was completed, I tried to play the movie. When I hit play on the movie, a window popped up saying that I had to sign into my account to authorize my computer to play the movie. When I did log in, I get another pop up window saying that this computer is already authorized to play the movie, yet it still does not play the movie. What's going on and how can I fix it?

  • IPod does not play well with left speaker

    I have tried several ear buds as well as stereo's for playback with my iPod. The left speaker plays at about 1/2 as loud as the right speaker in all these devices. This has happened with 2 seperate iPods. I've downloaded songs from 2 seperate PC's to the iPod and still get the same results. Has anyone else experienced this?

    hmm mine does the same thing from time to time but with the right speaker...I thought it was the car stereo I was playing it through but I've tried a few sets of headphones to discover that it must be the ipod itself.
    I've discovered that this is an intermittant problem - the ipod will either work fine or produce only 20% of volume throught the right speaker. The problem doesn't come and go while you're listening to it, but when you turn the thing off and come back to play music or video later - it either works correctly or it doesn't.

  • Safari and 1passwords are not playing well together since updates??

    Safari will not allow me to enter websites with 1passwords.  When I input the password it reverts back to enter you pasword.  I have updated to all of the newest versions and Safari is still not working.  I am having no issues with Firefox.  Been exchanging emails with Agilebits and have sent them two diagnostic reports, still no one has an answer??  Can anyone help? 

    Some people are having some problems although some fixed it with the following solution.
    Go here https://agilebits.com/extensions/mac/index.html
    Check the checkbox "Allow beta extensions"
    and download the recent version of 1password for Safari.
    Clean Up & Reset Safari by doing the following:
    Many times corrupt application resources are the reason for an application's slow performance. Safari has a variety of these, and Apple has conveniently enabled quick resetting of these resources through the "Reset Safari..." option in the "Safari" menu. Despite this, some people may wish to still reset Safari's resources manually. To do this, Quit Safati and locate and remove the files in the following folders:
    /username/Library/Cookies/
    /username/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/
    /username/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari/
    Then remove the following from the /username/Library/Safari/ folder:
    Downloads.plist
    Form Values
    History.plist
    HistoryIndex.sk
    LastSession.plist
    LocalStorage (folder)
    TopSites.plist
    WebpageIcons.db
    Delete caches
    Safari enables you to remove its cache from the "Reset Safari" option; however, you can use a third-party cache cleaning utility built for your operating system to remove all system caches to clear any faults with them that might be affecting Safari. Several of these utilities are: OnyX
    Get Onyx at: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/11582/onyx

  • Aluminum Apple Remote not working well with Keynote '09 v.5.0.4

    I have an i7 17" MBP and I purchased the aluminum remote to go with it. I do training/presentations for a living and generally halfway through various presentations, the remote will stop controlling them. Sometimes if I restart Keynote it will work again. Sometimes I have to reboot the computer. Other times it just doesn't work at all.
    I can use it with my 2007 G4 17" MBP, but I haven't used it enough to see if it develops the same issues as the i7.
    I've gone to Preferences > Security > General and tried to pair the remote with the laptop, but holding down the Menu and Next keys at the same time for a few seconds...or minutes... does not bring up the "paired" graphic. I've tried the Menu button and every other key, just to be sure, with the same lack of result.
    What the hey? (And, no, "Disable remote control infrared receiver" is not selected.)

    I have the white remote stop working on my new 15"MBP occasionally too. Same as you described in the post, it happens pretty randomly. I can get it back to work doing a unpair/pair under system preference panel though. It ***** but better than restarting the computer like you did, try that next time, just takes seconds...
    after reading your post I guess I'll give up on trying to buy a aluminum remote. Logitech R400 looks very promising, if you give presentation all the time it might worth the investment.
    cheers!
