Music playing randomly through apple tv

Why does music randomly start playing while browsing through apple tv

unlikely as the itunes server is an old mac mini g4 with 512mb of RAM, and runs flawlessly streaming all my content (music and SD/HD video).

    When i get in the car, if the audio is set on bluetooth the music will start playing automatically without me doing anything even if i don't have the music (itunes) running.

  • Recently I purchased a tv show on iTunes when playing it through apple TV it constantly renders while playing

    Recently I purchased a tv show on iTunes, when playing it through apple TV it constantly renders while playing on the Samsung tv which takes forever too watch.
    Hope someone can advise if I am doing something wrong.
    My laptop is directly under the tv however my modum is in another room so it is operating through Wifi.
    Thank you

    Restart all devices and the router to see if it helps.  May or may not.
    If you Purchased in iTunes on the laptop ensure you are playing back on AppleTV via the Computers icon not under the main TV Shows icon which will reload from the web.
    I would move the laptop away from the TV in case it's causing interference to teh wifi though clearly an AppleTv might have the same issue but is designed to sit next to the TV.
    If you were playing via Computers and it's still slow you could connect an ethernet cable between AppleTv and laptop, keep wifi on the laptop for internet via the router, and enable intrenet sharing over ethernet in System Preferences > Sharing so AppleTV can do an internet authorisation.  Hopefully restarting iTunes/router will just do the trick though.
    Do you have any non-Apple security software eg NetBarrier, if so try disabling to see if it was detecting AppleTV as an intrusion threat due to multiple connection attempts.

  • How can I transfer my music from an external hard drive to my Time Capsule and can I play it through apple TV?

    All my music is currently stored on an external hard drive, but I would like to transfer everything onto my Time Capsule, so that everything is backed up, what is the best way to do this?
    Is there a way I can then play all the content stored on the Time Capsule through apple tv without the need to clog up my macbook hard drive?

    Did you import the music on the external hard drive into your iTunes library on your new PC or point iTunes at the location of your library stored on the external hard drive?

  • Music plays slowly on Apple TV with Remote or Streaming from ATV

    When using Apple's Remote application on my iPhone or when selecting streamed playlists from my Apple TV the music plays slowly. It plays with no interruptions, what I mean is that the tempo is off. I do not have this problem when selecting and streaming through AirTunes to the AppleTV from my Mac Pro.
    This started to happen with iTunes8...
    Anyone else notice this? It is truly irritating to listen to music when it just isn't up to speed.

    I appreciate that in a pc environment with a full blown operating system you shouldn't really need to restart to diagnose faults, however I believe we are all going to need to get used to restarting consumer gadgets on a regular basis. I've been in the habit of restarting my phone every day for around five or six years now and I didn't stop when I got my iphone.

  • Mac Won't play sound through Apple TV

    So I've been using Apple TV with all my devices for quite some time now and it works great. One of the issues I constantly run into when using my 2012 Macbook Air  is if I open safari and navigate to a video, then decide I want to Air Play that video through Apple TV the video will carry over but the sound remains on my Mac. When I open sound preferences it gives me the option to select Apple TV as the output but it immediately, and automatically switches the sound output back to Mac Speakers. A reboot of the mac fixes this every time, but i'm wondering if there's an easier way to solve this problem that doesnt involve wasting time restarting my system..

    many repport that restarting their wifi router or updating it's firmware fix that issue

  • How do I play DVDs through Apple TV on my HD TV?

    I need some basic help please.
    I own a large collection of movie DVDs. These are conventional pre-recorded DVDs that I purchased in retail stores. I would like to play them on my flat screen HD TV.
    If I purchase Apple TV (don't currently own), what additional equipment will I need to be able to play my DVDs through Apple TV?   And, what are my options for physically or wirelessly connecting? 
    I have been researching this question, but the answers I find are not clear. Are there some writeups that would explain my options, configurations?
    Thank you,
    Dale

    There is currently no official way to do this.
    iTunes cannot rip DVDs as it can CDs to play across your local network.
    While there is software out there that can potentially rip DVD and convert to an AppleTV compatible format, this would potentially require circumventing encryption on DVDs on commercial DVDs - as such this could be technically illegal in your country and Apple's T&Cs for the forum therefore prevent discussions of methods of circumventing copy protection, even if for 'fair use' with DVDs you have purchased.
    The next Mac OS X version supposedly has Airplay to send computer video to AppleTV but whether it will work on all machines or just new ones (in a similar way to features not always working on older iPhones etc) we do not know.  Also we do not know if things like the DVD player app or certain website content will be precluded from Airplay if the copyright holder disables Airplay functionality in the website markup.

  • Problems with playing movies through apple tv

    Our purchased movies stop playing through apple tv as soon as you use the internet on ipad or iMac

    We have unlimited internet,  never had any problems before with connection.  Have had apple tv for 12 months.
    The last two days, apple tv is only playing previews and other apple option such as podcasts and youtube etc, but will not play any of our purchased movies.  I have switched everything off at power source, including internet, restarted the the apple tv, logged out of apple id and logged back in.  Checked location setting, checked the definition settings.
    Nothing is working.  The loading icon just spins, but the movie does not appear to be able to load.
    I am able to load the movie on the lap top, but when I switch to apple tv, it reverts back to loading.
    PLEASE HELP!

  • Music Plays Randomly

    This has happened a few times, not all the time, but music would play randomly for no apparent reason. It's not from any application or iTunes. I closed all the programs down and the music would continue to play. Each time it's the same song. It happens when I'm working in the middle of a program or when I turn on the mac.
    I do not know where it's coming from or how to turn it off. Please help. Thanks.

  • Can't play music from ipad2 through Apple TV

    My ipad suddenly stopped playing music through airplay. It was working fine then I noticed the airplay icon had disappeared.I rebooted my ipad several times, made sure my apple tv was up to date and nothing. Movies and videos play fine, music not at all.

    Since yesterday, many AppleTV users around the world have been experiencing the same issue.  From what I've been able to tell from other postings, it's related to the Apple servers - they are being upgraded for the iCloud and many Apple TV users are getting the "Need to Authorize Computer" message when they try to play a TV show or movie.  Your iTunes movie RENTALS and MUSIC should still work though. 
    A get-around is to stream your TV shows and purchased movies.  To do that, start the movie or TV show in iTunes on your computer as if you are going to watch it on your computer.  Once it starts to play, click on the little icon in the lower right-hand corner (hover your mouse around the area to get it to show up)....and then click on "Apple TV" (one of the two options the little icon gives you).....that will start it streaming on your TV.  It's going to "push" it to your APple TV box rather than it being pulled there by Apple TV itself.

  • Music cuts out periodically while playing wirelessly through Apple TV

    I've got a new-generation Qwest modem/router, and the distance between the router and the Apple TV isn't that far, so I don't think that's the problem. I'm wondering whether it more likely is the slow processor or minimal 2GB of RAM in my aging, low-end PC. Thoughts? Similar experiences? Thanks much.

  • How do i play iTunes through apple tv by just using my macbook pro?

    I'm just looking to play operate music through my macbook and have the sound come out of my tv speakers via apple tv and airplay.

    That was kind of the answer i was looking for.  I figured out there is a button in the lower right of itunes to switch the output speakers, that is what i needed to find.  Thanks!

  • Why does't the music play externally through the dock speaker?

    I have a dock extension/apple lightning to 30-pin adapter so I can plug in my iPhone 5 into the dock/speaker, but whenever I try to play music, the music doesn't come out externally from the speaker of the dock. The radio works, but not the music. It also charges the phone too.

    It's my understanding that that adapter ( I have one) only supports charging the iphone. To play the audio, the new docks (not Apple) have a prong that inserts in the audio out jack (headset) of the iphone to get audio to the dock. This prong sticks up next to the lightning connector on the base. Older docks, and most ones made for the '5, don't have this prong. Your adapter limits you to charging only. The world is univerally cursing Apple for the move to the 'Lightning' connector.

  • Problem streaming music from Iphone through Apple TV2 to receiver

    I have an apple TV connected via Audio Optical cable to my receiver. When I play movies from my Iphone, the sound is fine. But when I want to play music, no sound is coming out. I start the music then select Apple TV as output but still nothing.

    Too whom it may interest, I found the cure. I unpluged the Apple TV2 from power and repluged it after 5 minutes and rebooted my Iphone 4. Problem solved.
