My apple tv died after update

Black screen and white light flash slow on appletv??

Similar problem: Said yes to an update; after update only Computers and Settings logo on screen, updated again via traditional iTunes method and got everything back except for Settings. Anytime I select a specific settings menu such as "General" screen goes black.  Can only get back to main menu by pressing menu key on remote twice.   Lesson learned: only allow an update if there's a major upgrade offered by Apple.  They just don't test these updates thoroughly enough before releasing.

  • My iphone4 died after updated ios 5.01.

    My iphone4 died after updated ios 5.01. Yesterday, when I charged my iphone, iturn showed new software update. I clicked "update".After finished update,my iphone show the apple log only. I couldn't turn on and turn off my iphone. The iturn can't recognize my iphone.Who can help me to solve the problem. Thanks!

    The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer or cloud service regularly.  Your contacts will be in whatever program/service you have chosen to sync.
    If you have failed to sync your contacts then they are likely gone.
    You can try restoring from backup.
    You should be transferring any purchases made on the iphone to your computer regularly.  Just sync them back.  if you have failed to do this, then redownload them:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • ATV died after updating

    I have a brand new ATV, was setting itt up to my TV and network and iMac, and everything worked fine.
    Then I selected update, and it took a looong time but finished in the end after more than 30mins (I have a download speed on my network around 40MB/s).
    But after updating the ATV box just died, the LED is completely off.
    Yhen I tried reboot with power cycling, and after there came a screen picture wich I interpreted as I need to connecting with the USB cable - and I am not able to do anything with thw remote or anything. I do not have this micro-USB cable - any suggestions anyone?

    Sadly, you need to get the micro-usb cable to get the Apple TV to work again. It happened to my Apple TV 3, and I had to run down to Radio Shack to buy one. It was about $13 for the shortest one they had, but it ended up working and restoring the unit once you plug it in to your computer. That's better than going out and purchasing a new Apple TV for $99.

  • Do Apple products die after a given time?

    My iMac is three and a half years old and keeps freezing! Will not boot consistently, after waking from sleep the Apps running are non functional. Engineers don't know why?? Also, my Time Capsule died after two years and I had to buy another. Could have had 4/5 PC's for the money!!
    These problems have caused me much loss of time/money not to mention the inconvenience and potential loss of data.
    I have recommended iMac and other Apple products to large numbers of people, whom I hope don't have the same problems as me. My confidence in Apple has taken a huge dent. It seems that the only way the engineers can fix the machine to keep changing components!! In the meantime, I can't get on with my endeavours to make a living.

    Engineers don't know why??
    You've had this in for a proper diagnosis? Who are the "engineers?"
    You may have several concurrent issues. But we need more specifics to be able to help.
    In the meantime, Applejack may help. At the prompt, type in "applejack AUTO" and let it run through its agenda.

    The first boot after will be slower than usual and it may take several restarts for you to see the benefits, if any.
    You should also run the Hardware Test in extended.

  • SmartWatch 2 died after update with Sony Update Service

    After problems with Call Handling app after update of my xperia z ultra to Kitkat 4.4.4. I was told by support to repair my firmware using PC Companion. It didn't help. Afterwards I was instructed to update my SW2 firmware with Sony Update Service (SUS).
    I downloaded SUS and installed on my PC and followed the instructions. It said that the SW2 already has latest version. I clicked continue and after 40% it failed saying that there was an error with connection click retry or contact support. I tried several times - all attempts failed.
    After I tried turning on my SW2 but it was dead. And any other steps didn't help to turn it on.
    Nearest Service center is in Moscow, I live in Astana, Kazakhstan. So I am not even sure if they can help us even if I spend my time and money to take it there.
    So the bottom line is - never use SUS to update your watches, folks.

    ello everybody
    The problem is solved by Sony
    You will find an update for smartwatch 2
    This update will solve our problem
    Have fun

  • My 5800 is died after updating the software

    Guys,

    According to this:

    Softbank does not offer unlocking of iphones.
    Your iphone is carrier locked to Softbank and cannot be activated with any other carrier in any other county.

  • Apple adressbook failures after update to Lion

    Recently I updated my MacBookPro from SnowLeo 10.6.7 to Lion 10.7.4. by downloading the Lion software from App Store. I followed the instructions and finally it seemed to function properly.
    In the beginning I had some issues making backups with time machine but believe I could resolve them.
    At present, I do have problems with my Apple address book. It contains all my files (from the original address book) but individual files do not open and the original address book does not work anymore under LION. I see the names listed on the left side of the "new" address book and when I click on a name it does not appear on the right side of the book. It looks like the right side is "frozen".
    I would appreciate any idea how I can solve this issue. Thanks.

    Don't know about being "slow" - I've always felt it was slow.  I could run Office XP (maybe 2000 - not sure) on an 133 mhz Pentium and it was faster than Numbers on my late 2008 Aluminum MB.
    But I've had other issues under Lion with it.  It seems whenever I first go to my spreadsheets after the computer has been asleep - even if it is some time after waking it up - and start to enter some numbers, I'll get a beep and see that what I tried to type didn't come out right and I have to do it again.
    I was wondering if it was something to do with the auto-save versions maybe kicking in when I first start to enter info, but before I finish the first entry.

  • Apple TV blinking after update today no picture

    got new update for Apple TV now it is blinking with no picture or sound......september 2013

    hi,
    I tried restarting several times, without success.
    I tried to downgrade over iTunes to 4.3 ... but got always an error.
    Restoring over iTunes seems to work but made no changes, version 4.4 stays, the box is functioning, it boots, is searching for the time but finds noch wifi ... by pressing menu on the remote I come to the overview... if I try to search manually in network options, the list where wifis should appear stays empty.
    So wifi is dead. And that after an update?

  • Apple product unreadable after updating Itunes 11.1.5

    I need serious help because I'm having this problem for almost a month.
    Last month I updated my Itunes to 11.1.5 and after I updated it. NONE of my Apple products is detectable by Itunes and it's really annoying because I can't update my playlist.
    I have followed all this steps given by the apple website and NONE OF THEM WORKED.
    1. Update iTunes
    2. Check the USB cable
    3. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    4. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service
    5. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
    6. Check for third-party software conflicts

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version):
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, see if iTunes will launch without the error now.
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Apple ID invalid after update and reset

    Background: Update indicated on phone, so my son did the update. Then, once updated, it wouldn't work properly. He said it told him to reset the phone (or it might have been YouTube that told him. He's 14, so who knows?). Anyway, he reset the phone, and it wouldn't accept his Apple ID. It's been the same since the day I gave it to him. Apple support said to restore again, so I did. Still showing a shorter ID than he has. To top it off, the phone has disappeared from his cloud, but his iPod is still there. He can sign in on the computer with his ID, but not his phone. Any ideas on a fix? I'm confused.

    Yeah. That's what I thought as well when I saw what happened. I've been using other Apple devices since before and this was actually the first time I had this kind of problem. Unfortunately, I no longer have any documents that would support my purchase because I just moved to a different place and there's a great chance that the receipt had been lost in the process. Anyhow, thanks for the response. This might sound persistent but I might want to call customer service when I get the time and see if there are any questions/verification that they could ask me to help resolve my concern. After all, I paid for it and I was just able to use it less than 2 years. *sigh

  • Why would old apple id save after updates

    After downlaoding updates, my ipad reverted back to the old apple id and password.  I am not able to change back to my new apple id.  Any suggestions?

    In order to update apps yo have to sing into the account that purchased them. It appears that you are update more than one app at  one time and they were purchased from more than one account. You have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
    You go to Settings>Store to sign out and  sing into an different account.

  • My iPhone 4 died after updating to the new software

    Hi all,
    I was just wondering if this had happened to anyone else, two days ago i tried to upgrade my iPhone to the new software, 4.2, and my iPhone literally died on me! Now all that appears on my iPhone's screen is the connect to iTunes sign. When i do connect it, a message comes up saying my iPhone is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. Unfortunately though every time I try this the restore fails. I have called apple support and now have to go up to the Apple Store in Sydney and get them to give me a new phone. As i said above i was wondering if anyone else has ever had this problem.
    Cheers

    Hey ! Today I tried to make the update for my iPhone 4 and it died. I get the same type of message your getting and nothing will make it respond or set it back to the normal settings. Did you call apple? did you get a new phone? were you able to fix it? I'm really disappointed on apple and iphone.
    if you were to read the ops original post he said hes getting a new phone....
