ITunes sees AppleTV 3 as Iphone when trying to restore

Having trouble with NBA not streaming and Netflix not searching. Tried to restore with ATV controls and it downloaded latest (its already up to date) but said restore  was unsuccessful. Tried with iTunes but it sees it as an iPhone in restore mode, seems like bad idea to click restore in those circumstancesHave an ATV2 on same network with none of these problems.

Are you sure you have the latest version of iTunes (10.4.1)? Has the phone ever been jailbroken or hacked in any way, including installation of iOS 5? Has your COMPUTER ever been used to unlock, hack or jailbreak ANY Apple device (not just the phone with the problem)?

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

  • When trying to restore my iphone 3 i get error 1015, please help?

    Hi,
    When trying to restore my iphone I got an error 1015 and it says the iphone cannot be restored. What should I do next?

    This Error is often received when the iPhone has the iPad baseband installed. So iTunes sees a higher number in your iPhone and gives downgrade Error 1015, because iPad baseband is numerically higher than iPhone 3G baseband. You will have to search the Web for the complete fix which in now available.

  • Updated iPad 1 to IOS 5. When trying to restore my iPad from my backup it gets half way through and the iPad reboots and iTunes says "An error occurred while restoring this iPad (-1)"

    Updated iPad 1 to IOS 5. When trying to restore my iPad from my backup it gets half way through and the iPad reboots and iTunes says "An error occurred while restoring this iPad (-1)"
    I have tried to restore my contacts and company data at least 20 times and every time half way through THE iPAD REBOOTS! When it boots back up it is at the brand new iPad screen.
    This makes me angry as I do not use the iPad for fun and games. I use it for business. My company data and records for the last year are gone. ALL of my out standing customer invoices are gone. ALL payments received are gone! ALL Business contacts and emails ARE GONE! All my company, personal email accounts and settings ARE GONE!
    What am I supposed to do now? In 6 hours I have to get on the road and conduct business with a empty blank factory out of the box iPad. How am I supposed to know who owes me money or who has paid their bills Apple? All of my meetings and calendar dates are GONE!
    Everything was supposed to be backed up and restored after the update!
    Question???WHY DID YOU MAKE THIS UPDATE WIPE OUT ALL SETTINGS AND APPS ON THE iPAD??? All the other updates left everything on the iPad intact and ONLY upgraded the IOS,and when it was done everything was still there.
    Yes! I have done everything. Rebooted computer, checked for updates, Hard booted iPad, Factory restored iPad to ios 5 twice, tried every usb port I have, unplugged all other usb components.
    Everytime half way through "Restoring iPad from backup..." The iPad turns off shows a spinning circle then shows the Apple logo and takes me to the brand new iPad setup screen.
    Apple, you have no idea the level of stress you have created today.....

    Check the console app to see if there are any error messages. I had one app showing an issue (Pet Hotel) the error was (truncated):
    ERROR: Restore message response: 102 rename error: File name too long (63) at path "/var/mobile/Library/SafeHarbor/com.pocketgems.tappethotel/Container/Documents/ savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHis tory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGa meHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/sa vedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHisto ry/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGame History/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/save dGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory /savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHi story/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedG ameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/s avedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHist ory/savedGameHistory/1313349538-pocket_gems_crash_report.txt" (MBErrorDomain/102)
    I manually snyc'ed that particular app and then re-ran the restore and am now the proud owner of a working iphone. Not sure it is the same problem or app but looking in the console was the key!

  • Iphone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore, only option available now is to "restore and update" however this will not work, how can you restore from a backup once in recovery mode and only option is "restore and upgrade"? Please help!

    iPhone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore it. Now the only option iTunes allows is for "restore & upgrade", it is not offer an option to restore from a backup, says that must first do the upgrade, when attempting to do the upgrade the iPhone won't accept it.
    How can I restore from a back up in recovery mode when the only option is "restore and upgrade"?
    Please help.

    You don't you must restore your phone first and then you will have the option to restore from your backup.

  • HT4623 when trying to restore my iphone error 2001 pops up. Will not get out of recovery mode

    Battery got extremely hot one day while battery was 100%. When i noticed it was hot battery started draining really fast within 5 min it was dead. Hooked up to computer to charge but would not turn on. Itunes plug in screen pops up and iunes says needs to be restored, but when i try to restore it error 2001 keeps popping up. That was on a mac book, when trying to restore on pc error 21 pops up. Any ideas?

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

    My ex's Apple ID plus password request keeps coming up on my iPhone when trying to download Apps, how do I get rid of it please?

    Tks heaps for that, had a look at Store and ITunes sections, not overly helpful unless I am missing something.
    My issue is that on my computer she would update her iPhone with Software updates via iTunes.
    I have gone and deleted her backups that were still sitting on there.
    If I want to update my Apps on my iPhone when due her Apple ID and password request will come up as an option to use that account if I knew the password and it's synced from my Computer even though she has been gone 7 months now. Is it a syncing issue or is her Apple ID stored in my iTunes backups somehow and keeps coming back? Do I need to de-authorize her account from my Computer?

    You saved my life. I tried everything, even manipulating the host file on your PC, but still failed with the restore. Tried on 3 different PCs, at least 20 times, all in vein.
    Then, as u suggested I turned off the firewall, and it immediately solved my problem,
    Now my iPad has been restored, thanks to you. I was about to take it to the service to have it repaired, but now I don't need it.
    Thank you again.

  • TS3694 I am getting 1015 error message when trying to restore iphone 3Gs

    I am getting error message when trying to restore iphone 3gs

    If this is your phone, it appears that you had either loaded the iOS 7 beta on it and it is now expired or you are not trying to restore the phone correctly. Did you attempt to update using something other than the standard procedure in iTunes? You cannot install a custom iOS file.
