My Apple TV is not streaming proper

Jeg har lige købt apple tv 3. generation. Jeg bruger den til at streame TV fra min Macbook pro, men Apple TV gør det ikke ordentlig. Den hopper i streamingen, som om internethastigheden ikke er høj nok. Men min internethastighed er målt til at være 14 mbits/sek som burde være tilstrækkeligt. Alle mine andre enheder arbejder fint med internettet. Er der nogen der har oplevet samme problem eler nogen der har en løsning?

this looks like a clogged network.
How are you connecting MBA and Apple TV?
If both are on WiFi - try to connect Apple TV via cable to your router (if possible). This will improve the newtrok bandwidth.

TS3623 Apple TV3 will not stream movies

My Apple TV3 will not stream movies and it takes a very long time for music to stream from my MacBook. I readjusted the resolution settings and it was the same thing. It gives me an "error occurred loading this content; try again later" message after spending several minutes of buffering after I try to play movies.
I have high speed 15 mbps Mediacom internet, which has never had any issues. I called Mediacom and they said my connectivity was excellent. I have reset my router/modem/AppleTV to no avail. My homesharing is on and I have followed all other recommendations I could find on Apple forums concerning this same issue.
I am going to return this product for a Roku if I am not offerred a solution on the matter.
Apple, I hope you realize this is not an isolated incident.

From where? Internet or local iTunes library?

I appreciate your frustration, but remember we are fellow users here, and you are not talkingto Apple support directly.
If you are connected via wifi try using ethernet if you can to rule out a wifi issue.
My AppleTVs are very stable with internet or LAN streaming 99% of the time, but since yesterday they have all behaved oddly - weird!

My apple tv is not streaming video without stopping

When streaming films from my mac air to apple TV the internet steaming is non stop
But the apple TV stopped while it is buffering.
So although the film runs without stopping on the Mac Air screen it keeps stopping when being mirrord on the HD Tv via the Aplle TV.
It seems like the Apple TV is not keeping up with the video feed from the mac air
Please advise?

My apple tv is not streaming from my itunes since my last update but streams movie previews so i know it is communicating to the internet any advice. P.S. i have already unplugged everythign and reset everything already so i need better advice.

It steams movie previews so i know it is connected to the internet and it sees my movies but when i click on them to play they take unusually long and then if they start they just dont load. I have had this unit for a year and have not had any problems till now. The last update changed the look and then it wont stream it is very frustrating. any advice will be appreciated. I have already unplugged everything and reset everything and still nothing.

Just look through the list of posts - you will see many people asking the same question. My father and i (different households) have the same issue. Apple techs want to blame it on interference or firewalls, BUT everything was working before the update so that is just a blow off answer. Apple needs to fix this.

Apple Tv will not stream all photos in a file

Apple TV has stoped showing all photos in files/albums. Also having issues with streaming movies from Netflixs. This has not a problem during first two months. After an update these problems showed up. Did not correct with lastest update a few days ago

Welcome to the Apple community.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

Apple tv will not stream more than one song maybe two

My Apple TV will not stream itunes matched.

iTunes is turned on, matched and works on my iPad, but not on the Apple TV. When I go to the music part of the menu, There is a message that Apple TV is setting up iTunes match. It has been this was for many days. It did take hours for Match to wrok on my Mac. I've let this run overnight several times. I play music from my computer when I want music, but shouldn't Match work?

Well, I restarted my Apple TV and it set up matching just fine...don't know what the problem was, but it working now.

TS2972 Apple TV is not connected to the network?

After installing the latest Apple TV firmware update 5.1.1 (5433), my Apple TV will not stream music from my iTunes over the wifi network. After 15 - 120 seconds of music, the streaming stops and I get the "Apple TV is not connected to the network" message. My iPhoto is still streaming pictures and I can go to Radio and stream content.
In the "About" screen. I have 4 out of 5 bars of signal, but the IP Address number and wi-fi network name drop out randomly. I have reset and restored several times to no avail. I have reset my router several times and powered down/restarted several times. The Genius Bar folks have no answers except purchase a new one.
The system has worked perfectly until the December update.
Any answers?

This will be due to a network issue, which can come at any time
Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
If on wifi try Ethernet
To see a status of the network go to istumbler, netstumbler or similar to get a report. Look for signal strength, noise, nearby networks

Apple TV - really not useful for streaming

I bought an Apple TV last week - I have 400GB of Apple Lossless audio files stored on my PC, and a number of TV shows in MPEG2 format, extracted from my Humax digital recorder.
The size of my media library means that syncing to the Apple TV's paltry 40GB HDD isn't an option, so I'm forced to use the ATV by streaming from iTunes.
First problem - whenever I shut down iTunes and turn off my PC (at night, for example) and restart it, ATV completely fails to be able to reconnect to the same library. Every time, I have to remove Apple TV from iTunes, go into the Sources menu on ATV, connect to iTunes, go back to my PC, enter the new passcode, and then streaming comes back up. This is, frankly, ludicrous. My Roku SoundBridge manages to remember a connection when the server PC shuts down - why can't ATV?
As I already have a SoundBridge, one of the main reasons for wanting an ATV was to get album art. But if you are streaming, ATV only seems to display album art that is embedded in each individual file - it can't make use of the iTunes album art feature, where artwork is stored separately to avoid bloat on the audio files.
Finally, the restricted choice of video codecs is ludicrous. I have video stored as DVD-standard MPEG2 program streams, but iTunes won't accept that, and QuickTime won't even convert it.
I wondered why, when I bought the ATV from the Apple Store in Bluewater, that the sales assistant told me, without my asking, that I had 14 days to bring it back in if I wasn't happy. I've never been told that in that past when buying anything - it does suggest a lack of confidence in the product. That said, I shall be taking advantage of it - the ATV is going back. I may buy another one in a few years when Apple have actually finished it...

• MPEG-4 Part 10 (H.264) is in no way an inferior
quality format. It is in fact far superior to MPEG-2,
offering either smaller file size (better
compression) for the same quality or greater quality
for the same file size. It is the standard for HD-DVD
& BluRay, for most HD satellite services, & for most
terrestrial broadcasting (except in the US, where it
is being considered as an upgrade to MPEG-2 for
ATSC).
If you are truly concerned about file size or
quality, this is the format you should be using, not
MPEG-2.
A fair point - however, I do not believe that it is possible to convert MPEG-2 to MPEG-4/H.264 with no loss of quality. While MPEG-4 may well be a more efficient codec, not supporting native MPEG-2 results in lower quality DVD-sourced material, and I would contend that DVD is currently by far the largest source for content that people might want to display on their AppleTV.
• Apple TV is not sold as a media server but as
iTunes for your TV. You seem annoyed that the product
isn't something it doesn't claim to be. This makes as
much sense as complaining that a car you bought can't
fly.
Errr - no. I don't expect it to be a media server; I expect it to be a media client, which is what it is sold as. The fact that it ships with a limited size hard drive and then fails to offer full functionality as a client in a streaming system is my major complaint. It does indeed claim to be "iTunes for your TV", but what it actually is is "iTunes for your TV, as long as your combined audio and video library is no bigger than 30GB". (And yes, I do mean 30GB - it would appear that 10GB of the drive isn't actually usable for media files.)
• Providing MPEG-2 support is a necessity for any
standard DVD player, & for that reason the cost of
its license is built into every player on the planet,
including those in computers. However, that license
only grants one right: to decode DVD content coming
from the player. To do anything else, you need a
license with more rights. If you don't like this
licensing arrangement, complain to the licensing
authority (& good luck with that), not to Apple. The
latter makes as much sense as complaining to Apple
about Windows licensing arrangements.
Other vendors of competing products have included MPEG-2 codecs and (presumably) the appropriate license. It is technically possible to run the MPEG-2 codec on AppleTV, as hackers have already managed to do so. To avoid including this capability because Apple weren't willing to negotiate a license is ludicrous. The MPEG-2 codec is available from Apple as a QT plugin for $20 - an MPEG-2 license would not have added significantly to the cost of an Apple TV.
• If you feel the Pinnacle ShowCenter 200 better
suits your needs, why not just buy it instead & skip
the rant? This is a support forum intended for help
with & discussion of the features of Apple TV. It is
a good resource if you are interested in pre-purchase
information or resolving post-purchase issues. It is
not a support forum for emotional release issues
(venting). There is nothing wrong with that -- in its
proper place, it's probably healthy -- but this just
isn't that kind of place.
Fair point, but in that case, would someone like to correct either of my assumptions (if they are indeed incorrect):
1. A streaming connection to AppleTV is broken to the point that it must be deleted and reinstated from scratch if the server PC is shut down and restarted.
2. A streaming connection to AppleTV cannot display album art from the iTunes database unless that art is also embedded in every audio file streamed.
Nowhere in any of the publicity for AppleTV does it suggest that you get reduced functionality when streaming compared to when syncing, and yet on these two points, it is (as far as I can tell) deficient. If all I wanted was a 30GB media library connected to my TV, I'd have plugged in my iPod - if AppleTV does not offer full functionality in a streaming environment, I can't see what it's for, which is why I'm a little peeved.

Apple TV syncs but does not stream- Article: TS1447 not helpful

My content does not stream from my Mirror Door computer. I have read the article listed above but System Preferences, Sharing does not offer the firewall setup posted, even though it was posted December 08.
When I first set this up it worked fine now it syncs and does not stream. I have hard rebooted the Apple TV, I have disconnected it from my current iTunes and then went through the process of re-associating it with my iTunes. All are most recent versions. Everything works fine except for the portion of streaming from my computer. I have not a clue! Any ideas? Is there a preference file I should delete?
Setup: Mirror Door connected to the new Extreme N.
*The Sharing panel does not have a Firewall option.*
This is the article:
Apple TV: Data does not sync or stream after entering passcode
Last Modified: December 02, 2008
Article: TS1447
Old Article: 305287
Symptoms
Once you have entered the passcode from the Apple TV on your Mac or PC to establish a syncing or streaming connection, the sync or steam of content may not work.
Products Affected
Apple TV
Resolution
This can result from a firewall being enabled on your Mac or PC. If you have a firewall enabled, please make the following adjustments:
On a PC
Make sure the firewall is configured to allow TCP connections on port 3689. This will allow the transfer of content for syncing and or streaming to your Apple TV. If you use Windows Firewall, see "iTunes for Windows: Music Sharing With Windows Internet Connection Firewall " for detailed steps. If you use other firewall software, check the documentation for that software on how to open port 3689.
On a Mac
Open the Sharing System Preference (choose Apple > System Preferences and then choose View > Sharing).
Click on Firewall.
In the "Allow" field make sure the "iTunes Music Sharing" check box is checked. This will allow the transfer of content for syncing and or streaming to your Apple TV.
If you use other firewall or internet protection software, check the documentation for that software on how to open TCP connections on port 3689.
Note: If you use "fast user switching" on a Mac with firewall enabled you'll need to enable additional ports to allow streaming to Apple TV. If you don't, only the first user will be able to stream to Apple TV. For one additional user enable TCP port 49152. For each additional user, open the next incremental port (49153 for three users, 49154 for four users, 49155 for five users, etc.).
Follow these steps to add the necessary ports:
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
From the View menu, choose Sharing.
Click the Firewall tab.
Click New.
From the Port Name pop-up menu, choose Other.
In the TCP Port Number(s) field, type in:
491452, 49153
This example allows for a total of three users. If you need more, enter the additional number(s) as described in the note above. If you need fewer, just enter the first number.
In the Description field type in: Extra Apple TV streams
Click OK.

Click on the greyed out library and a dialogue telling you the library is unavailable will appear with an option to disconnect, I haven't actually tried this since if it does what I think it does it will delete my registration.
You may want to try the 'change library' option I mentioned before for the synced library, it may avoid you having to resync everything over.
Sync and stream are initiated from different ends, streaming doesn't work because you have changed your libraries and the tv no longer recognises them. I assume you moved your libraries over to your new mac, when you sync from itunes it uses the info from before you moved it and of course the tv is still the same tv so itunes recognises it and it will sync.

TS2972 Itunes Library will not stream to apple TV

I can find my itunes library on my apple TV, but it will not stream. it just continues to buffer, and does not load the movie. Is there a way to fix this? Everything used to work just fine before today.

Solution:
I had the same problem. Apple TV worked, because I could stream the BBC iplayer from my iPad, it was just iTunes that was the problem. However, I just downloaded the latest Apple TV update and bingo!

Lost newly purchased Iphone5, Reported complain in police station but not getting proper responce. Can apple help me out for this?

Oh, don't worry. I know exactly. I'm a retired law enforcement officer after 30 years. I didn't mean for them to allow you to use the Internet, I meant for them to assign an officer to try and track the device for the victim. Again, that would require the victim to provide their Apple ID and password, which most would not want to provide.
Pinging the phone as you mention is only when there is probable cause and that is done through the carrier.
I'm glad to see someone also understand that a stolen cell phone is not as important to law enforcement as it is to the victim. It is unfortunate as smartphones get more expensive. Hopefully as iOS 7 makes it debut later this year, the work Apple has done will have some impact on smartphone theft. Other manufactures and carriers are starting to improve here in the states. It never was something carriers worryed about with blacklisting. This is where they were a step ahead in Europe.

ITunes will not stream vidoe audio to Apple Hi-Fi speakers

Hi - Using iTunes, I am able to stream music and podcast audio to my Apple Hi-Fi speakers via Airport Express. However, VidoeCast, TV Shows and purchased movies will not stream... am I doing something wrong? Is there a workaround?

Try turning IPv6 ON in your network preferences - this is helping SOME people with this problem. It won't help you at all if your network router doesn't do IPv6.
To turn on: go to Network Preferences, select the interface you use, under teh TCP/IP tab click 'Configure IPv6', and choose 'Automatic'. Save changes.
