Music streaming turns off when I turn off TV

I use AppleTV to stream music to my stereo. The device is plugged into TV via HDMI and using the digital out to connect to my amp. Works great when my TV is on and I can listen to my music over my speakers.
Problem is that once I turn TV off, the music stops.
Does AppleTV need to have TV to be on to work as streaming device. Doesn't seem to make sense.
Anyone have a fix for me?

If you have an A/V Receiver (Amp) your Apple TV and TV should both be connected to the Receiver via HDMI. You don't need the optical cable unless you have a very old receiver without HDMI support. This will allow you to use the Apple TV completely independant of the TV.
In any case make sure that on the TV HDMI Control is turned off, so it won't turn off your amp when turning off the TV.

  • My iPad screen is totally frozen with a message box asking me to go to photo stream settings but when either option (ignore or settings) is selected nothing happens. I can't turn off the device either because the screen won't respond. Help please

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo.

  • Photo Stream turns off with restart

    Ever since I turned on Photo Stream, I've had this problem where every time I restart my computer, Photo Stream turns off in iPhoto.  If I quit iPhoto and re-open it without restarting my computer, Photo Stream keeps running just fine.  I only have the issue when I actually shut my computer off.  I'm running iPhoto 9.3 and OSX 10.7.4.
    I've been doing some research to try and find a solution, and I keep coming up with two tips.  The first is to go into Library-->Application Support and delete the iLifeAssetManagement folder.  The second is to to into Library-->Preferences and delete the com.apple.iLifePhotoStream files.  I've tried both, and so far neither has solved the problem.
    Does anyone have any other suggestions about how I could fix this issue?

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto, reset the preferences including PhotoStream and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup

  • I downloaded music from iTunes onto my iPad. I enabled iTunes Match on my PC (where most of my music is stored). When I turned on iTunes Match on iPad it said the iPad music library would be replaced.How do I use iTunes Match without losing  iPad music.

    I bought music from iTunes and downloaded it to my iPad. I have enabled iTunes Match on my PC (where most of my music is stored). When I turned on iTunes Match on iPad it said "iTunes Match will replace the music library" on my iPad. All of my iPad music is saved on iCloud, and some of my PC music is on iCloud. If I use iTunes Match will the music previously downloaded on my iPad be lost?
    Thanks!!

    You need to either sync the iPad with iTunes so it will transfer the purchases to the iTunes library or download them from the purchase history. Then let iTM work on the "new" tracks in the library then all the music will be available on the iPad.

  • MacBook Pro. Was Streaming radio. When came back to computer it appeared to have shut off. Now can't get it to respond in any way.

    MacBook Pro. Was Streaming radio. When came back to computer it appeared to have shut off. Now can't get it to respond in any way. Now that you can't remove the battery, I don't know how to get it to quit, although it doesn't appear to be making any noise, so might have quit on it's own.  Any ideas? Thanks!

    I honestly don't remember what it came with though I do remember having two drives so long ago.  Since then I've had to replace them with newer, faster ones, and just didn't really need a second drive.  I don't copy cds, I just need something to read DVDS (which the current one doesn't seem to want to do) and occasionally burn something.
    I bought the MacPro becuase I am a tireless multitasker, having super memory eating programs on at all times.  Right now I am working in Photoshop while watching a movie, with two P2P programs open, two chat programs and surfing the internet, with two monitors active so I can see everything.. I can't imagine the average pc doing this wthout blowing up   Mac Pros are the ultimate computer for those that like to do a lot at once.
    The speed and memory capacity of the Mac Pro make it the best computer hands down to handle a mind that can't be satisfied with doing just one thing at a time!
    And six years after buying it, it can still eat the average pc for breakfast  How's that for great?

    I bought a ipod 5th gen 32gig off a road side peddler for $175. It was working when I bought it. I wonted to remove his music and stuff off of it so I restored it with itunes and now it wont let me activate it. I do not have his info and I do not know how to get in touch with him I have had third gen ipods and never had any problums like this before Help!!!

    Either get the Apple ID and password from him to activate the iPod
    iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
    or have him remote remove the device from his account
    Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
    or return it for a refund.
    Otherwise you have an expensive, thin brick

  • Last few seconds of stream cut off when recording a live stream

    Hello,
    I'm having a problem with recording a live webcam stream. The last few seconds of the stream is getting cut off.
    The recording is stopped with the following piece of code:
                vid.attachCamera(null);
                vid.clear();
                ns.attachCamera(null);
                ns.attachAudio(null);
                ns.pause();
    What could be causing this? Is the stream cut off too soon? Is the client unable to send buffered data to the server?
    Kind regards,
    FY

    Thanks, I'll consider using ns.publish(false) . I've also managed to solve it using ns.close()

  • HT201317 Cant get Camera Roll or Photo Stream images off my iphone 4

    Cant get Camera Roll or Photo Stream images off my iphone 4.  Ive got everything turned on to support the icloud function and my itunes shows syncing, but nothing. Any ideas what Im missing?  Thanks A Million!

    You can delete them from your phone by opening the album that contains them, tap Edit, tap the photos you want to delete, the tap Delete.  You can also import camera roll photos to your computer and delete them after importing as explained in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

  • Help! I can't delete music or videos off my iPhone! iOS 8.0.2

    I have an iPhone 5s that I updated to iOS 8 and my storage is full and I can't delete any music or videos off of it.  I turned off iTunes Match, turned off Show All Videos and Show All Music and try swiping the remaining videos and music off but it won't even swipe to show delete.  Went to Usage --> Manage Storage and Music or Videos won't even show up there, so I can't delete from there either.  I've even tried resetting all the settings twice. No luck. I updated to iOS 8.0.2 and the same issue is happening.  Please help!

    I have been dealing with this same problem on both my iPhone and iPad ever since iOS 8 was released. I can't remove any music or videos. I was hoping that with iOS 8.1 this issue would be resolved, but no. Going to Usage -> Manage Storage still doesn't provide access to Video like it used to in iOS 7 and earlier versions. Selecting Manage Storage gives a list of items you can delete files from but not Video. Apple needs to return the Video (or Music) option to Manage Storage to users can clear their storage.
    As it stands, the only way I have been able to clear my storage once it is full after watching several TV show episodes or movies bought on iTunes on my iPad is to restore it as a new iPad. This is ridiculous. There must be an easier way to clear storage of videos.
    Thanks for any help!

  • End of stream or off-line message?

    When you stop live streaming, is there a way to have the client player present an end of stream or off-line message?
    Right now when I stop streaming, the client plays the last part of the stream and then just buffers endlessly.

    something like this?
    conn = new NetConnection();
    conn.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onStatus);
    private function onStatus(e:NetStatusEvent):void {
       switch(e.info.code) {
       case "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound":
       //some code
       break;
       case "NetStream.Play.Stop":
       //some code
       break;

  • I have all my music in iTunes and have "Music Match" turned on.  Apparently, I also have music on my iPhone 5.  I need to free up space on my iPhone.  If I delete the music on my phone, will it still be available to me on my phone via the cloud?

    The same is true for photo's.  I have too many photo's on my phone taking up space.  Now I realize I can remove a lot of the photo's via sync options, but ...

    This can happen if iTunes gets confused about what is and isn't on the device. These steps should resolve.
    Backup the device.
    Restore as a new device.
    Restore the backup made earlier.

  • Just bought an apple tv and it wont stream music from my imac. when i click on the apple tv music icon it goes straight into the itunes store and so i can only access the music i have bought from itunes not the music i have stored in itunes on my computer

    i just bought an apple tv and it wont stream music from my imac. when i click on the apple tv music icon it accesses the itunes store and brings up only that music i have purchased from apple instead of all the music i have stored in itunes on my imac.

    The music icon will only access your purchased music. You need to go to the computer icon. It must be on and running iTunes, and home-sharing enabled in order for it to be accessible to Apple TV
