Itunes on Apple TV will not give me an HD option only SD

I can get my ipad to give me the HD option but when I try to rent/buy a movie on my Apple TV through itunes it doesn't offer it. Any ideas?.

Go into settings - iTunes. Make sure it is set to HD

Apple TV will not give me a "password sign in" for iTunes even though it recognizes that my password is wrong (it's new). Help!

Hi letjimdoit,
If you are unable to get to the screen that allows you to enter your password on your Apple TV, you may want to first try restarting the Apple TV. Use the steps in this aricle -

If the same issue continues after restart, you may want to restore the Apple TV. See this article -

HT204400 I used my apple tv wirelessly and it worked fine,then I plugged an Ethernet wire into the Apple TV to move it and could not it to connect. When I unplugged Ethernet wire it will not give me a wireless option. How do I get that back?

If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    1.    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    2.    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    3.    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    4.    Open iTunes.
    5.    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

Itunes and Apple computer will not recognize ipod nano. What do I do?

I have an ipod nano that I bought last year. It has worked fine. Over the last couple weeks, although charging, my computer will not show it in itunes nor recognize it in the finder. I tried placing my usb cord with my Nano on my girlfriends computer and it showed up there but will still not show up on mine. Any answers?

Hmm.. I just checked again trying to put my Nano onto my girlfriends G5. It actually doesn't always show up. At first it didn't and then as I fiddled around with the setting (not changing anything generally) it came on. Hmm.... And then before I could look at it in itunes it went off. Said "Device Removal blah blah blah". Hmm... Then I couldn't get it on again. itunes actually wasn't responding and the ball kept spinning. Then I restarted itunes but it wouldn't come on. I tried the finder but that began to spin too and didn't stop. Even iCal wouldn't come on. So I restarted the computer.

Airplay will not give me "iphone" speaker option?

When in my Itunes and I try to change my speaker to "Iphone" it will only give "Dock Connector" and Airport express, why will it not give "iphone" as a speaker option?

Because you can only Stream videos and music from your iTunes library to an Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation), or music to an AirPort Express or compatible third-party device.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Apple Maps does not give directions via Bluetooth

I have a iPhone 5 with IOS7.0.4 installed. Apple maps will not give me voice directions via Bluetooth in my car. I have tried to do this in several cars but it doesn't work. Google Maps attaches itself to To Bluetooth and gives voice directions over the cars speaker system every time.
Is there a setting I am missing?

I have just returned from a trip across Italy in a brand new Suzuki hire car. It had a bluetooth audio system and after some fiddling I got the setup working really well.
Pairing was not easy (the car came with no manual). After much trial and error I got my iPhone 4S (OS 7.1.2) paired (You get the car's audio device into 'pairing mode' at the same time looking at your iPhone's 'Settings Bluetooth window for a new device to appear. You then enter the passcode given by the car into the phone. You can check that its paired: A message should come up on the car, the iphone says connected against the new device. And starting a track playing in 'music' it should then be played over the speakers - if not there is a menu on the phone which enables you to select the car's device.
If your Apple Maps directions are working fine on the phone's internal speaker (enter start & destination, press Route, then Start), then they should now work over the car's audio system. Furthermore;
- Each time a direction is given the music track gets muted
- Likewise phone calls should also mute out the music (not sure about the directions tho - didn't get any calls in Italy!)
- On this car, the music started playing automatically thereafter from my phone every time I got into the car! I thought this initially extremely cool, because on my car back home (a Parrot kit) it takes a while to get it going.
A couple of 'glitches' which someone on here may know the answer to!
- Whilst you can select options for the volume of the directions : Loud / medium/ low, changing the volume of the music also softened the directions. I was in the car with four others and getting everything 'right' proved a bit of a challenge
- When returning to Naples we got given a wrong address which sent us to the wrong place (with a flight to catch after) putting everyone into a panic:- 'Switch the bloody music off!" I was told! . I tried to but found this hard to achieve without also killing the directions (which we were relying on).
Note that we only had one phone paired! Each setup varies with regards multiple phones and how to switch between them. This is a headache in our family, as we have 5 iPhones and everyone drives. Multiple phones are often not handled well.

I am trying to activate new qualitative research software. When I attempt to activate it my Apple Air will not allow it and gives an error message saying we cannot verify the identity of the developer of the software

The developer isn't recognized by the App Store, so your Mac is trying to protect you in case the program is malware. As long as you are sure it isn't, follow this procedure:
In the Finder, locate the app you want to open.Don’t use Launchpad to do this. Launchpad doesn’t allow you to access the shortcut menu.
Press the Control key, then click the app icon.
Choose Open from the shortcut menu.
Click Open.The app is saved as an exception to your security settings, and you will be able to open it in the future by double-clicking it, just like any registered app.
OS X Mavericks: Open an app from an unidentified developer

TS1368 My apple ID will not let me into iTunes. Please help.

Would somebody help me find out why my verified Apple ID will not allow me into the iTunes Store? Thank you for your help.

To use iCloud, you will have to change your AppleID to an email address - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621
The old AppleID rules used to allow you to use any name you wished, but that was stopped a long time ago, and iCloud will not accept such an AppleID, so you will either need to change it, or create a new AppleID just for iCloud.
BTW, the apps you are downloading have nothing to do with iCloud or your iCloud account. The cloud icon in the App and iTunes stores merely indicates the app lives "in the cloud" as the storefront is an entirely internet based service.

TS3623 Apple TV will not play rented movies. Says it is being played on another device, which it is not. Downloaded movie via iTunes on my iMac.

Apple TV will not play rented movies. Says it is being played on another device, which it is not. Downloaded movie via iTunes on my iMac.
I've tried restoring the TV, updating my iTunes - nothing is working. It is definitely not playing on my computer.

Sign in to your iTunes account settings on the computer (click on the AppleID top right if you're actually signed in).
In your purchase list find the purchase and use the 'Report a problem' link to tell the store.
Assume you've not moved the rental to another device where it resides but is not being played.

Apple TV3 will not load a movie I have rented. When I go to Settings/iTunes store/rented movies it still will not load.

HT203180 Apple/ITunes, needs to let people know BEFOREhand that HD movies WILL NOT transfer to iPods. Purchase ONLY SD, NOT HD if you want to transfer them! What a pain to find this out AFTER purchasing 11 movies in HD!

Itunes movies in HD will NOT transfer to IPODS. Apple/Ipod need to make customers aware of this little "glitch" before they purchase HD movies, not after purchasing 11 of them and not being able to transfer them. Watching on the computer is not my first choice!

I am not sure if this will help - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3209.

How to link apple tv to itunes on macbook. apple tv will not play on tv.

Do I have a defective unit? Apple TV will not come on the tv or my macbook, my itunes on my macbook will not recognize it. Used several different HDMI cables and tried in all the differnt ports on the tv. Power light will come on the unit but will not show on either my tv or laptop.

The only way to get an ATV recognized on a computer is to physically plug it in via USB, has that been tried?
With the ATV connected to the tv, were all inputs toggled through on the tv? Not just physically moving the HDMI cable from one port to another.
