Network test cannot connect to apple

I have been having fuzzy image issues with netflix so I hard wired the my Apple TV rather than wifi thinking that would solve it.  It did not.  Figured I would try to test network speed in general setting and found that after thinking for a minute or so it indicated it could not connect with apple and to try back later.  The connect does work because everything but the test streams fine other than the test.  My other Apple TV has the same network test problem.  Anyone else have similar issues?

Hi Timbo1026,
If your Apple TVs are having issues contacting an Apple Server over your network, you may find the following article helpful, especially if there is a router-level firewall active:

  • Your Apple TV is connected to your wi fi network but cannot connect to the internet.  Airplay logo not available on ipad3, iPod touch3g and showing intermittently in iTunes on windows laptop.  Switched ISP a few days ago.  Entered pass key info on all.

    I switched ISP a few days ago and had problems with airplay since.  After restarting and reinstalling and updating, re entering pass keys for new wi fi on everything,  Apple TV shows:  Your Apple TV is connected to your wi fi network but cannot connect to the Internet.  Ipad3 and iPod touch 3G have no airplay icon or get one briefly then it disappears again.  Same with itunes on windows laptop.
    Can anyone help?

    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 connects to the network but cannot connect to the internet.

    Apple TV connects to the network but cannot connect to the internet. Works on other Apple TV's we have just not this new one. Defective???  Thank you!

    This might help:
    Apple TV (2nd gen.) saw my wireless network but did not accept my password (gave a network error message). It fixed instantly doing this:
    Made a note of the Apple TV's MAC address. Get it by pressing Menu on the remote, then Settings > General > About. It's called "WiFi address."
    Use your browser on a network connected computer to go to your router settings (usually 192.168.1.1).
    Under "Wireless > Wireless MAC Filter" (or something similar) do these steps:
    Enable Wireless MAC filter
    Enable "Permit PCs listed below to access the wireless network"
    Enter the Apple TV's MAC address
    Click "Save Setting"
    When I did this the network connection immediately started working.
    Note: These instructions are based on a Cisco Wireless-N Broadband, model WRT160Nv2, firmware v2.0.02.

  • Both my apple TV and iTunes on my mac are turned on. My apple TV shows that it cannot connect to Apple, while the wireless network is working

    Both my apple TV and iTunes on my mac have the Home Sharing turned on. My Apple TV is configured to my wireless homw network, yet for some reason, I cannot connect to iTunes. I get a message that says: "cannot connect to Apple. Check your netwrok connect or try again". Is there any steps that I am missing?

    Are you trying to connect to iTunes on your mac/PC or the iTunes store.

  • NB200 Can connect to wireless networks, but cannot connect to the internet

    I have been able to connect my Win XP netbook to my secure wireless network at home, other people's networks and public networks like the library and McDonalds. This week I'm away from home and discovered that while I can still connect to a number of different wireless networks, I cannot connect to the internet using Internet Explorer.
    I've had this problem once before and fixed it by reinstalling Windows XP and all my other software. I have no idea why it has happened again. I'm hoping for a less drastic solution to the problem..?

    Hi Nakia,
    > I cannot connect to the internet using Internet Explorer.
    Have you tested other browsers like Mozilla Firefox and does this work?
    As MasterG wrote try to renew the IP address using the commend line.
    Last week I had a similar problem and I could solve it by updating the WLAN driver. Just remove the driver, restart the notebook and install the newest one. :)

  • IPhone update:  "Cannot connect to Apple Server"

    First time I got that message when I tried to update the iPhone software!   iTunes works fine, all downloads and updates.  Used the iTunes connectivity tests, all worked fine.  My security software and all setting haven't changed.  Nothing's changed.  Sync works fine.  When I plugged in my iPhone and started iTunes, it said an update is available, but then when I click update, it tries to connect to the server but then I get the message "cannot connect to apple server."  Help!  Thx

    I disagree with the above two posts.  It is probably the same issue as  described here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17784700#17784700
    Try adjusting the DNS servers on your PC to 8.8.8.8 and then trying it.

  • Hi, My problem is I cannot connect my apple tv to my account, the user name and password are definitely correct, I upgraded the software, reset the device, but no chance. What should I do?

    Hi, My problem is I cannot connect my apple tv to my account, the user name and password are definitely correct, I upgraded the software, reset the device, but no chance. What should I do?

    Try this:
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings  (or for network connection issues 'reset network settings').
    (no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).

    get error message when trying to sync iphone to puter that says"cannot connect because apple mobile divise is not started? what do i do?

    Restart your computer and the iPhone. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo. It is safe to do, there should be no content loss. It is the same as rebooting your computer.

  • HT5457 When Open passbook in my iPhone 4S and tapped on the App Store it says cannot connect to apple iTunes Store. What am I doing wrong?

    I updated my iPhone 4S with the new iOs 6. It was successfully installed, but when I open passbook app and tapped App Store I get this message saying cannot connect to apple iTunes Store . What did I do wrong?

    Try connecting to your Mac or PC and using iTunes to sync your iPhone. Disconnect your iPhone after syncing, make sure in Settings>iTunes&AppStore you have your Apple ID and password entered, and launch App Store and sign in. It should work now, but do not sign out from App Store. There seems to be a bug that prevents us from signing in again after signing out.

  • I cannot connect my apple trackpad to my iMac using Mavericks.

    Ok, I am reading A LOT of issues with Mavericks. I am tempted toi go back to lion or snow leapord. This is shameful on Apple's part. Safari is unuseable. hard drives drop on setstart
    And now I cannot connect my apple track pad. No matter what I do, It will not connect. I have read re-installing the OS will work, which means I have to re-install everytghing. Not happy. At this rate I might as well run windows 8.

    um... having to update most of the system software is still incredibly time consuming, and I already did it once. Problem persists. Mavericks is fail. Period. The ONLY thing that made paying the premium for a mac WAS the OS. Now? Taking this heap back tomorrow and getting a PC. If I have to trouble shoot this much it would be better if I save money and can play games. Apparently with the death of Jobs so to does the OS die.

  • IPad Air wifi works but Safari returns message cannot connect to Apple server?

    using iPad Air wifi works but Safari returns message cannot connect to Apple server? (Friends iPad otherwise couldn't post!)

    Many thanks for contacting me Carolyn. However the wifi was working fine and I found the solution from this posting:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/25449630
    So resetting the iPad by holding down the Home and Sleep buttons together to reset it did the job.

  • I cannot connect to Apple store, my WIFI is ok, i already made an apple id and verified thru e-mail. Please let me know the possible possibilities whyt i cannot connect

    I cannot connect to Apple store, my WIFI is ok, i already made an apple id and verified thru e-mail. Please let me know the possible reasons why i cannot connect to apple store?

    You need to first disable your antivirus and security programs and see if you can load the itunes store then. If so you know its antivirus blocking you.
    Secondly due to xmas the itunes store is seeing a HUGE amount of people who got new ipods and/or gift cards. Yes Im sure apple tried to prepare for this but they can only estimate how many extra people they will have. Also SOME ISPs in local areas are limiting access for there costomers to the itunes store to save on overloads on there servers. Far as all this goes (If this is why your not able to connect) it should normalize after new years when people go back to work and school. Seems alot of people post about this issue during peak times which are normally between 8pm and around 10 pm when most people are on

  • HT1595 Apple tv will connect to the network but cannot connect to the Internet

    My apple tv is connecting to my network but it says it cannot connect to the Internet. I've already tried restarting everything and I've also connected it to my portable mifi network with same results. Anybody have any ideas?

    This is what the MAC address clone looks like:
    Should I enable it?  If so, should I put something in the MAC Address?  What?  I was able to connect it thru my MiFi, but not my home network.  Until today, it's been connected to my home network for about 8 months with no problem.  Haven't used it for a while...not since I got a new router.

  • When I am connected to a network, I cannot connect to anything.  If I go off the network, then I can connect.  Help!

    When I am connected to my network at home, I cannot connect to anything, but when I am on 3G, I can connect to all my aps.  Help?

    From what I can understand, this pretty much means that either your WiFi antenna in your iPhone is messed up, your your wireless router has no access to an internet connection.
    If you are able to connect to your wireless connection from different devices, then your should probably include information like that in your post. Are you able to connect to any other wireless networks from your iPhone? If not, then my best guess would be that this is due to a faulty WiFi antenna and I would recommend sending your device into Apple or taking it to your nearest Apple Store.
    Hope this helped.
