Keep seeing the message, "Unable to connect to Apple TV." -- help?

I keep seeing this in the upper-right part of the screen:
Unfortunately, there's no message in the notification center, and there's no (apparent) message in Console. I literally have no idea why I keep seeing the message, and it's quite annoying.
Currently using a MBPr via. 802.11ac TimeCapsule. The Apple TV3 I have connects wirelessly to a last-gen Airport Extreme (and that's connected to the Time Capsule via. extended wireless). Signal strength is excellent for all devices.
Any ideas?

Open AirPort Utility (in your Applications > Utilities folder). Click on each device shown there (e.g., Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme). Make sure they are running the latest firmware. They will warn you if they are not once you click on them.

Why do I keep getting the message "Unable to connect to Imap server you may have exceeded the maximum number of connections to this server.

I already tried reducing the maximum number of connections to 1, but I'm still receiving the message. Is there anything else I can do?
My computer is a Mac mini running OSX 10.9.5. Firefox is version 34.0.5.

Ok, IMAP server almost universally allow multiple connections. Thunderbird as you would have observed uses 5 if they are available. As Airmail suggested, iphones just use more and more until they exhaust the available connections. There is no set maximum option.
However there are other things that can consume connections and some may surprise you.
Anti spam tools such as mail washer
Anti virus programs in their anti spam or anti phishing roles
Web mail.
The wife sharing the same account on her laptop.
That is from the top of my head. So could any of those apply.

Try "resetting" the iPad...
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

My iPhone 4 is unable to upload photos from the camera roll onto facebook. Keep getting the message "unable to upload now"

My iPhone 4 is unable to upload photos from the camera roll onto facebook. I keep getting the message "unable to upload now, try later"

I suffer same. AppleCare can't seem to solve the problem. I did a restore from backup. Then I did a restore as new phone (virgin). Then I did a restore as a new device and then backed up from a stored backup (which does not replace media). To no avail. Some days it works fine, and on others it's extremely bothersome. The major symptoms:
1. It can take 5+ seconds to delete a photo.
2. It can take 10+ seconds for the camera app to activate. In many instances, the moment is long gone.
3. Switching from camera to video can take 5+ seconds.
4. Saving a photo that's been optimized in iOS 5 can take 30 seconds. Absurd.
Note that Photos and Camera aren't the only affected applications. What'sApp can have the same issues on occasion. Voice Memos don't respond like they should, either. I suspect that there's some behind-the-scenes operations with network feed to which iOS gives its full attention (contrary to the UX getting full attention is is historically the case). This makes the user interface painfully slow at times — and, as most of us here would agree — painfully annoying. This might have to do with changes designed around iCloud, but I'm not even (yet) using it.
The bottom line is that what used to be a quick, pretty good phone camera is now totally lackluster and unreliable for fast shots. Sometimes I think Apple spends too much time worrying about form and not enough about function.

HT2480 I keep getting the message "unable to verify account information" how do I fix this? It happened out of no where and I tried re-entering the exchange info and it won't stop giving me the message...any ideas?!?

I already reset network settings like someone suggested, but still cannot get my exchange acct to work.

I'm having the same problem but with high speed access.
Anyone know the answer?

Receive the message "unable to connect to itunes store" when trying to install updates for my apps

trying to install updates available for a number of app on my phon and keep getting the same message "unable to connect to itunes store"............

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Accessing Thunderbird help, Firefox gives the message "Unable to connected to datebase! Too many connectors."

When I access Thunderbird Help, Firefox give the following message: "Unable to connect to database! Too many connectors." Other Thunderbird Help selections work OK.

Sorry, the Mozilla Messaging forum isn't associated with this Firefox support forum. Sounds like that forum is very busy or is having server problems. All I can say is to try it later when it may not as busy, or a server problem is corrected.
Or you could try the Thunderbird support forum over here. <br />

In iBooks I keep getting the message failed to load resource is missing HELP!!!

In iBooks I keep getting the message failed to load because the requested resource is missing, tried deleting but still happens I can open it on my iPhone 5, but not on my iPad mini, please HELP!!!

Okay I figured out my problem. When you use the "add another email" option in FaceTime (or iMessage now), it associates that email address with your Apple ID account that you logged in under.
The Apple ID that I'm using for FaceTime isn't the same as the one iMessage defaulted to. I didn't noticed that. Once I switched iMessage to use my other Apple ID, it let me register. What's odd though is that iMessage doesn't recognize my email address as valid when I try to send myself a test message. When I logged out and into a different Apple ID, it did recognize it as registered though. Odd.
So Basically make sure the email address you are trying to register isn't listed as an alternate email address (or primary) on another Apple ID account.

I am trying to connect my new ipad to my BT Home Hub but keep getting the message unable to join the network, Any advice?

I am trying to connect my new ipad to my BT Home Hub but keep getting a message saying that I am unable to join the Home Hub network. Any advice?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

HELP!!!! I've tried to purchase and download a new app only to keep getting the message "can't connect to iTunes store. It's getting very frustrating! My Internet is working and I've downloaded apps prior to this one - what is goin on with machine!?!?!

I keep getting an error message "can not connect to the iTunes stores" - what gives.

Microsoft does not currently have a Mac App Store version of Microsoft Office. So any apps that you find in the Mac App Store that sound like those programs are probably helper programs by third-party developers. The only way to get Office for Mac is directly from Microsoft on their website.

Netflix- works fine until I select "play" for an item. Then the message "unable to connect" 104 appears. This is puzzeling as Apple TV is already connected and working fine up to this step.

Things were woking fine, then for no reason the connection to Netflix got crazy. Netflix appears on screen and performs everything as though it is connected to Netflix. The menu options display and I am allowed to select a movie to play. Once I enter the play window frame I press the play command on the remote and get a "unable to connect with Netflix" message 104. Tried contacting Netflix but that is impossible too. Any suggestions?

I am getting the same problem since the last upgrade. Both Netflix and Apple blame the other, no one wants to help... Apples best solution so far is to replace the apple tv box....
