My apple tv recently started showing only Internet, Computers and Settings as options

My apple tv recently started showing only Internet, Computers, and Settings as options. Does anyone know where the Television and Movies went. Anyone else experiencing this issue? I want my MLB and Netflix!

I had the loss of Internet after updating to 5.0.
Only Computers and Settings are available.
I tried through Ethernet cable, manual settings of the IP addresses etc. but no  result. still only Computers and settings.
It communicates with internet for Home sharing etc. Checking the network through ATV is happening. Only problem is "internet " option is not visible.
I have not changed any settongs in the wifi router during this process. The same ATV was working with all 3 options before update. will the update do any changes to WIFI Router in blocking DNS etc?
Any advice will be ok.

  • My apple tv main menu no longer displays the "movies" section, just internet, computers, and settings. Does anyone know why or how to get it back up? Recently rented a movie directly through apple tv but can't see the movies section in main menu now.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check the location setting for the iTunes Store is correct.
    You might also try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router.
    If you are still having problems try a restore.

    Try restarting the Apple TV by removing all the cables for 60 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. Also try restarting your router.

  • My home page only displays computers and settings icons. No other icon. How can I get other icons?

    Looks like a sudden error being thrown up on many ATV2 units.  Yesterday, mine was fine and today I now only have 2 icons like so many other posters.
    No amounts of restarts or restores, disconnecting and reconnecting power, restarting routers, re-logging in to iTunes has any effect at all.

  • HT1551 Apple TV - can only see Computers and Settings options (no internet)

    sine the apple2 tv software was updated last week I can only see options for computers and settings
    whilst my internet connection is clearly working, I cannot access youtube or internet radio as there is no internet option
    any ideas how to fix this pls?

    My ATV3 has worked beautifully for the last week.  We woke up this morning to find this problem. Nothing weird happened over night - my entire network has been up all night with no resets or anything strange.
    The ATV3 accessing all of my Home Sharing content, so I know the network is fine (wired). Tried resetting and cycling power.  Tried changing locations/setting language.  Nothing. I even tried resetting my DSL Router, but to no avail.
    I've got nothing fancy going on with my location, short of being in Canada.
    Update: Oh, and I have a 2nd ATV3 downstairs, also on a wired connection.  Just found out that it, too, is exhibiting the same error.  Although, I'd left it in 'iTunes Match' last night and the first thing I saw when I started it up was "Error:  iTunes is Unavailable. Please try again later".  Plugged my old Popcorn Hour in and it, at least, is working fine.

  • HT1551 My Apple TV Home Only Has 'Computers' And 'Settings'. Isn't There Supposed To Be Youtube And Netflix And Stuff? I signed in to my iTunes account AND Connected to a wifi

    Before I updated my Apple TV, It had everything, 'YouTube' , 'Netflix' And the iTunes Store. I just updated it and connected to my WiFi network and signed in to my Itunes account. After that there wasnt anything in the home screen, execpt for 'computers' and 'settings'. Any help?

    This always implies the AppleTV is not seeing the internet when it starts up, as it seems to acquire available category content from there.
    Restart your router and unplug and restart your AppleTV - does that help?

  • My Apple TV menu keeps flickering between the standard menu and one that only has "Internet, Computers, and Settings" What is going on?

    I will be watching a movie or tv show and it will just quit working, reverting back to a three selection menu. Then it will go to the standard menu and back, doing this a few times. I cant seem to get it to stop and it didnt happen when i first got the ATV.

    I had this issue with both our Apple TVs and it turned out to be a bad router.
    The router was generating enough radio interference on the Wi-Fi channels the Apple TVs used that they could not hold the signal, and were constantly associating/disassociating with the bad router.
    I figured this out by monitoring the status logs on the Time Machine - Advanced tab, and seeing an associate/disassociate message every five seconds or so.
    Removing the bad router fixed the problem.

  • It only shows computers and settings

    Why does my Apple TV show sometimes only the computers and settings  on the screen?

    That means it is having trouble connecting to the network. Ensure location is set correctly, DNS should be set to automatic. Make sure your router is up to date. If on wifi try ethernet.

  • HT1551 I am only showing Computers and Settings.  Can't get back to Movies or any other media.

    Only displays Computers and Settings icons.  No media or other activities available.

    sounds like the appletv does not have a working connection to the network
    if you use wifi go in to the settings and choose your ssid and type in your password

  • I bought new apple tv but it only shows Computers and Settings. how can I bring up other options, specially Youtube?

    Alright, I found the issue. This is how I have resolved my issue. I hope it will help you.
    1. This issue could happen, if your apple TV doesnt have internet, connectivity to iTunes servers, or you haven't logged in to iTunes account in your apple TV
    2. Test the network on apple tv - General - settings - network - test network, Try to aviod using wifi use LAN cable, since we are trying to fix the issue.
    3. Set your exact location manually - Which city you are in from settings-General - Time Zone- choose your City currently you are in.
    4. Login to iTunes account - settings- iTunes Store- set your default store - for example I am in Mongolia but using my New Zealand account on Apple TV, in our case my Apple TV iTunes account location is New Zeland.
    5. If you are facing any issues to login to your iTunes account, That explains you have an issue with connectivity back to iTune servers, or sometimes it could be apple iTune servers may have problems. To verify which is one is the problem login to your itunes on your laptop or desktop for testing purposes, make sure you are using the same internet connection as your home apple TV is using.
    6. if you are able to login you should able to see all the available channels and full list on Apple TV.
    All the best..I just saved USD 29.00 but spend 5 hours...LOL..Its ok..its my Holiday spend with Apple TV.

  • I had to restore my iPhone 4s and now my recent calls show only phone numbers instead of the contact's name.  How can I restore the names to my recent calls list?

    Are the contact details in your contacts app, the phone app uses the contact app to put names against telephone numbers.

  • I have just connected my new apple tv, in the main menu I see only two icons; "computers" and "settings".  Where do I find the icons for internet, movies etc. We do not live in the US..

    I have just connected my new apple TV and in the main menu see only two icons: computers and settings.  How do I access the rest of the icons (internet, movies etc...)  We do not live in the US.  The unit has full WiFi access with no problems, I can access ITunes on my laptop via home sharing no problem.

    Glad that this solved your problem but if you searh past threads there are a LOT of people with identical problems.
    Reading through the threads my take is
    There seems to be something awry with wifi chipset. Typical symptoms are initially being able to connect to connect to a Wifi network then the connection is dropped. Then you see just the 'computers' and 'settings' icons on screen
    Power off, reset and factory restore doesnt seem to solve it
    Occasionally its nearby antenna cables etc causing interference
    One report with convincing evidence it was the HDMI cable, swapping to anotehr cable fixed the problem
    Plugging in ethernet works, this is purely a wifi issue
    Sometimes plugging in ethernet temporararily wakes up the wifi
    Many people seem to have exchanged their units only for the same thing to happen to the new unit a few weeks later. Just wondering if its a fomponent fail or heat issue.

  • Apple tv just started showing I need to connect to itunes.

    I can't as I do not have the cable needed. What can I do?

    I may be wrong Karsten but the OP seems to be saying that the Apple TV is asking for the cable and hence it is that 'special situation' you refer to.

    I assumed this is what the OP is seeing.

  • TS3798 My Apple TV Does NOT show the Internet menu option. Has all the other options but the Internet. I am connected to the Internet as I can  Rent, Buy ,etc..movies from the Apple Store...

    I have a first Genreation iPAD and just a new Apple TV, 3rd Generation. The Apple TV does not show the Internet menu option after booting up.

    There isn't one.
    AppleTV3 has icons for all the internet features.
