My Apple TV stalled during an update and now just shows an image of it being plugged into a USB. It won't complete the update and does nothing when I plug it into my Mac via USB.

2 Apple TVs. The first won't reboot, it stalled during an update and now shows a picture of a UBS plug. Ive tried to plug into my computer, nothing happens. At a standtill.
The second Apple TV works but only if I send something via Airplay. The remote no longer has any affect. The light on the front of the Apple TV blinks when I push a buttom on the remote but nothing happens.
Any Ideas? I am starting to think I need to replace them. Thanks.

Ok, with itunes open on the pc, plug one end of the usb cord into the computer, but not connected to the ipad.
now, press the power button on the ipad until it turns off.
Then, press and hold the home button on the ipad at the same you plug the usb cord into the ipad. DON'T LET GO OF THE HOME BUTTON.
Keep holding the home button until you see the recovery mode message pop on the itunes window.
When that happens, you should now be able to restore.

    i'm wondering if i can use my macbook pro to override the update that  is incomplete.

    What does this have to do with Classic operating systems?  They won't run on a Macbook anyway.

  • TS2755 Since updating my iPhone 5 to ios7 my phone has trouble sending iMessages. Sometimes it won't send the message and will not automatically send it as an SMS despite this option being selected in settings. It's happening with 3 other people I know to

    Since updating my iPhone 5 to ios7 my phone often fails to send iMessages. It won't automatically send as an SMS despite this being switched on in the settings section.  This is also happening wig my partners phone and my mothers phone.  I want to report it to Apple but I don't know how.
    Firstly, is there a way this can be reported to Apple so they can fix the bug? And secondly, does anyone have any suggestions in relation to fixing this problem?
    I usually love my phone but I am finding it unreliable at the moment and am wishing I didn't update it.

    Restart your phone.

  • Updated Iphone and now just showing an unknown error (14)

    I updated the most recent update for my iphone. Once it had finished updating, it came up with an unknow error. My iphone is just showing the sign saying i should plug it into itunes. it tells me i need to restore. i restore it and it just says the error again. i can restore it on my sisters laptop but it means i dont have any of my own numbers or mesages or pictures. i need all of this. can anyone help?

    when you tried to restore the iphone the first time it deleted every thing off the iphone. every time you sync, it destroys the old back up, and then makes a new backup. if you can get the iphone up and running you can try to put the back up back on. But the backup may be damaged too.
    Also have you checked your computer to see if any of the data is stored else where? (address book, ical, iphoto, itunes)
    some times even if the data is damaged you may be able to open the back up using a 3rd party back up viewer. http://news.softpedia.com/news/Freeware-App-Extracts-iPhone-Backups-for-Viewing- on-Your-Mac-97780.shtml

  • How do i fix a white screen on a 4th generation ipod touch? it will not let you press the home button and off button to reset it. it also does nothing when you plug it into the computer

    how do you fix a white screen on an ipod touch

    Try:

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My screen cracked and now just showing lines

    help me!!!what do i do??

    You will have to get it replaced one place or
    another. It more then likley will not be a warranty
    issue. You can call or go online and request repair,
    but in most cases it is because of user caused
    conditions.
    But it is not hard to get one replaced or even to do
    it yourself. There are several third party sites
    that can and will do it for you.
    Or you can like I said do it yourself. You can
    google some of the sites or I have used the following
    two and they have been pretty reliable.
    ifixipodsfast.com or ipodmods.com
    Hope this helps, and sorry your screen cracked. Not
    the endy of the world and for a little over 75
    dollars US you can get it repaired

  • I have updated my adobe plugin but FF continues to disable and won't complete the update. I can't use FF if it keeps doing this.

    I receive an error message and can't play videos on yahoo and a variety of sites. I click on FF to check for updates but it gets stuck "connecting with mozilla." I love FF, but I don't have time for solving these kind of problems.

    hello phxpuma, adobe has released a critical patch for a vulnerability in its flash plugin, which is reportedly already exploited in the wild. therefore firefox will block insecure versions from running by default on websites for your protection. https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/flash-player/apsb14-27.html https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/p794
    please update to Adobe Flash Player version 16.0.0.235 as soon as possible, which you can download from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html (use the windows-exe for plugin-based browsers).

  • I tried to update my 4s and after getting an error message it won't complete the update AND my computer is not recognizing it at all HELP!

  • I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac.  The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. Any tips on how to do this?

    I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac.  The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. I installed the current Bonjour printer services software on the Windows machine, and separately installed the driver software for the Epson printer on the WIndows machine.  Running the bonjour wizard, I get an alert saying 'I don't have sufficient access to my computer to connect to the selected printer'.
    The printer has 'sharing' turned on from the Mac end; this works with a Powerbook via the wireless connection.  Sharing is also turned on in the Windows printer control panel for this printer (under properties).  The Mac is a G5 running 10.5.8.  When I try to print a page from the Windows machine it gets hung in the print queue.
    Any advice how to proceed would be appreciated!

    No, if you have that picture it means the update went wrong and you need to restore via iTunes.
