New Apple TV won't show video on new TV.  Old Apple TV worked fine.

I had two Apple TVs. One is hooked up via an HDMI to DVI cable to an old DLP TV. I wanted to see if the new one would work with the DLP TV. It did, and had no issues.
Then I hook it up to a 1-year-old TV via HDMI to HDMI. I get "Unsupported Video" on the display! I'm using the same setup as the old Apple TV to the same TV.
The white light is solid. I reset the AppleTV it flashed rapidly, and still does not work. If I unplug the cable, it says, "no device connected".
Again, old one works on the TV. New one does not.
What's the issue?

Thanks for the suggestion. I remember having issues with some video modes on the ATV1. I confirmed in the manual that my new TV does do 720p at 60Hz, and up to 1080p at 60Hz on the HDMI inputs.
I brought the ATV2 back to the old TV, and it works fine. Does not appear to be any way to select video modes on the ATV2, like there were on the ATV1. No way to select modes on the TV either.

  • Why won't some photos or videos sync to my iPad when they work fine with iPhoto and iTunes?

    Why won't some photos or videos sync to my iPad when they work fine with iPhoto and iTunes? Other photos taken with same camera sync fine from iPhoto while certain events are inexplicably incompatible. I've recently foundvthecsame occurrence with certain mp3s and videos from iTunes.

    For photos try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
    Not all video formats that work in iTunes are compatible with the iPad - the supported formats are (from http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/) :
    Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    Have you tried Advanced > Create iPad Version and then sync those versions to the iPad
    The iPad's supported audio formats are :
    HE-AAC (V1 and V2), AAC (8 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC (from iTunes Store), MP3 (8 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, and 4, Audible Enhanced Audio, AAX, and AAX+), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    It doesn't sound like you "changed" your Apple ID, sounds like you created a new one. Bad idea. All content bought with an Apple ID is forever tied to that ID. The ID that bought the content is the only ID that can update the content. Apple does not merge IDs not does Apple transfer content from one ID to another.

  • My apple tv worked fine till i got new Panasonic 55 plasma. now the tv doesnt recognized the hdmi unless i unplug and replug the apple tv.

    my gen 2 apple tv worked fine on my 5 yo Panasonic Viera with HDMI cable.
    i bought new 55 inch Panasonic and new hdmi cables.
    the apple tv works fine but...if i turn off the tv and leave it off for a while, then try to watch apple tv, the apple tv is off and no signal seen at the tv
    if i unplug and replug the apple tv it reboots and works fine on the tv
    i tried with three diff hdmi cables and three diff ports on the tv.. all same problem
    help

    After successfully logging onto your network, your tv screen should display a 5 digit passcode for you to enter into your mac. Does it do this.
    The tv should now have appeared in your device list in itunes and by clicking on the device you should be able to enter the passcode to register with itunes. Can you do this.
    I suspect you can do neither from what you have said but whilst I wouldn't be surprised if the later didn't happen, I'd be surprised that the former didn't.

  • Changed to a new BT Hub 4 but safari stopped working; message - "505 internal server error", yet internet and wifi on non appled devices working fine?

    Upgraded home router to the new BT Hub 4. Working fine for mail, but Safari cannot be accessed to bring up web browsing or any web sites. Message instead is "505 Internal Server Error" and then the IP address is listed in the search bar. Only effects my Apple devices, my other pc's using different browsers are working fine? Any suggestions please?

    my imac will not connect to wifi what so ever. i have tried 3 different routers and all my other apple devices work fine. when i take it to the genius bar it seems to work with apples instore wifi. thus leading the "geniuses" to say nothing is wrong.

    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Take all the applicable steps in this support article.  
    Step 2
    If you're running OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and take the remedial steps suggested in the summary that appears, if any. The program also generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
    Step 3
    If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. Continue if you find that Wi-Fi is faster with Bluetooth disabled.
    From that same menu, select Open Bluetooth Preferences. If the box labeled Discoverable is checked, uncheck it. Click the Advanced button, and in the sheet that opens, uncheck the top three boxes, if any are checked. Click OK. Enable Bluetooth and test again.
    If the application called "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" is running, quit it.
    Step 4
    This step will erase all your settings in the Network preference pane. Make a note of them before you begin, and recreate them afterwards. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the preference pane.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Step 6
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional — ask if you need guidance.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present. 
    Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • HT4623 I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine

    I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine.It is quite strange as well. Have you encountered this issue before?If yes then what's the solution?

    I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
    The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
    if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
    Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
    turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

    Hello Rattisate,
    Sorry to hear you are not able to connect to Wi-Fi on your MacBook Pro.  I would be concerned about this too.  You can find information on how to troubleshoot this in the following article:
    Troubleshooting Wi-Fi issues in OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628
    Follow the steps in the section labeled, "Symptom: My Mac does not connect to the Internet."
    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

    No one here said anything about an update or your device needing it.
    FYI, you are not addressing Apple here, we are all users like yourself.
    If the device is in recovery mode, the only option is to restore it.  All data on the device is gone.  This should not be an issue if the device has been used as designed and regularly synced/backed up.

    I have an existing new belkin modem router which works fine with quiet a few wired and wireless products in my house. My question is if i buy a time capsule can i put it in another room and wirelessly connect it to the belkin modem router, I would then just like my macbook pro and (imac future purchase) to wirelessly back up to it???????????

    Your will need to perform a Factory Default Reset on the TIme Capsule to clear out the current network settings and then reconfigure it to "join" your wireless network using the AirPort Utility setup application.
    To perform the Factory Default Reset on the Time Capsule....
    Pull the power cord from the back of the device
    Wait a few moments
    Hold in the reset button on the back of the Time Capsule and keep holding it an additional 8-10 seconds while you simultaneously plug the power cord back in to the Time Capsule
    Release the reset button after the hold period and allow 25-30 seconds for the Time Capsule to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
    On your Mac.....
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click Continue
    Follow the guided setup and choose the "join" option when it appears duriing the setup
    You will need to know the exact type of wireless security that the Belkin router is using to enter this information during the setup of the Belkin. Otherwise, the Time Capsule cannot join the network, and you will receive an error message after the configuration process.

  • I just installed a new WRT54G2 v1. It worked fine when I...

    I just installed a new WRT54G2 v1. It worked fine when I installed it two days ago. However now it seems to be searching for ip address, and in a loop. I can correct it by stopping and restarting DHCP services, then repairing the wireless wireless connection. However, this is a real pain since there are two desktops and one laptop using it. Does anyone have suggestions. I have the wireless adapters set to obtain IP address and DNS automatically. Is this the problem? Should I assign static addresses to each? Just searching for a solution so I don't have to go through the repair each time the pc's start up. Appreciate any help. Thanks

    I found at least part of my problem. On one desktop I found TCPIP V6, which, from what I have researched, is not needed - in fact, it causes problems on some networks. I unstalled it and the pc booted back up with active wireless Internet connection. I don't know if that was the only problem, but it at least temporarily solved that one.
