New User: ATV not showing up in iTunes and computer/ATV uses same IP addrs

At my apartment we have a shared wifi network that has open access to everyone in the complex. I connect through a Dlink DWA-130 Wireless N USB Adapter.
The ATV connected to the network right away, but nothing would load. I got the IP address from my computer and manually put into ATV and now I'm online, but my computer can't connect. I tested the IP address ATV created and manually put it into my computer and it doesn't connect to the internet.
Should I buy a router to connect ATV to my computer and the internet connection? Why would the IP address that ATV created not work?
I have an eMAc with 10.5.6 and all the settings in iTunes are correct.
Thanks in advance.

I think it is my internet provider and not the ATV. I'll call them and see what they think and post the solution.
Thanks again.
You may be better having a word with your network administrator first to confirm your internet access conforms with this document.

    First of all does, the iPod power on okay? 
    Have you tried plugging the iPod into a different USB ports, preferably a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC tower (these are directly soldered onto the motherboard and receive much high outputs of power than the ones on the front).
    What about a different USB sync cable?
    What shows up on the iPod's screen when you connect it?  Does it charge at all?  Maybe try resetting it with it still connected to your PC.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

    i phone 4s not showing up in itunes and is not charging alson when u plug usb cable in computer

    it could be the cord. i have that same issue with my phone and it was the cord. you're not supposed to store the usb cord (or any other electrical cord) in a bunched up manner. anyway, i played around with my cord by bending it in different directions and now the cord works and my phone is recognized again. if all else fails, best to buy a new cord.

    hi, my 120gb ipod classic is not showing up in itunes, and everything is gone.
    how do i format it on microsoft ' format portable audio player ' ?
    the device has just installed necessary drivers to microsoft upon plugging in
    like a say though, not showing up in itunes still
    before it recently had this failure, it had shown up as corrupted and that it needed restoring (but i was holding off, as i manually managed all music and was hoping for a way to back it all up, to no avail)
    first time posting here, would appreciate a quick answer because tempted to just click the 'restore device defaults' option
    Many thanks

  • Artwork is not showing up on iTunes and on my iphone.

    Artwork is not showing up on iTunes and on my iphone.  Why is this?

    I am having the same problem, i edited everything multiple times, sometime my album artwork will show up and then disappear after time. I have tried everything, even wiping my ipads music library and changing each file to AAC format, the artwork remains in my itunes when i pull up a song but as soon as i transfer the music to my ipad, everything loads successfully...EXCEPT the album artwork. Really annoying!! I really wish i could find an answer before I load all of my music back on and just give up on the search for answers,
    please get in touch with me if you find out how to fix this and i will do the same for you.

    replacement iphone does not show up on itunes and I cannot sync

    You can't have an iMac PPC (PowerPC) if you loaded Snow Leopard.  iMac Intel are the only Macs that are compatible with 10.6.   So the first thing wrong you are doing is posting in the wrong forum, or giving us misinformation.
    Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to find out exactly what you are running.  A G5 is a PowerPC.  Intel is Intel.
    Also look at the operating system in that window and update your profile.
    What version of iTunes do you have?
    Has the iPad ever shown before on this machine?   Once we have your correct info, I'll ask a moderator move this thread.

  • ATV not showing up in iTunes

    My ATV is not showing up in iTunes. ATV is working correctly on the television. search for ATV is set in pref of itunes. ATV shows up in choice possibility of itunes speaker choice (right bottom). Reinstalled itunes still no joy.
    Any suggestions to get ATV displayed again in itunes
    Iemke

    When I first hooked up my ATV, it came up under devices in iTunes, and I started syncing my videos on to it. For whatever reason it was taking ridiculously long to sync, so I figured I'd cancel and just sync a couple just to test it out. The second I changed my syncing preferences and went to click apply, the ATV disappeared from iTunes, never to be seen again. I've restored the ATV to it's factory settings, done software updates, rebooted my Mac numerous times, and still have nothing. Looks like we are all in a similar boat and any sort of help would be greatly appreciated.

    I just spoke with Apple Tech. Apparently, you can not transfer a movie that was purchased on the appletv over to the computer. This seems odd to me, but that is the information I have just received.
    i think you've been given wrong information then.
    afaik, as long as the movie is not HD, you can sync them back to itunes (just the same as purchasing tv shows - and i know this works as i do it).

    Same issue here:
    I have iTunes installed on a PC running under Vista x64 (Windows )
    Tried all the tips suggested by apple help:

    Won't work.
    Windows Vista x64 does recognizes my iPhone 4S as a Camera.
    I can connect my ipod nano without problems to my PC, not my iPhone 4S
    When I connect my iPhone 4S to a PC running under Win XP, connecting to iTunes works without problems.
    I suspect Win Vista x64 to be the problem, but can't solve the problem!

  • New motherboard ATV not showing up in itunes

    I have a "new" computer in that the motherboard had to be replaced, along with the hard drive... I can't get my Apple TV to show in devices in itunes. In itunes prefs I have "look for apple tvs" checked. The ATV is connected to my wireless network. Any ideas how I can see my ATV in devices? I'm running OS 10.5.8 and my ATV software is up to date.

    Settings>Computers on AppleTV
    The top entry is the sync library - change this and anything on AppleTV will be wiped in preparation for a new sync.
    Lower entries are streaming libraries.
    The new motherboard/hard drive will be a 'different itunes library to the one you preiously used hence why AppleTv doesn't show up - you need to set it up for the 'different' computer.
    Authorisation is equally as fussy - my MacMini failed so I removed the hard drive to try and deauthorise the computer, but booting from another device it knew it was a differnet machine so i couldn't deauthorise it.

  • New User Mailbox not showing up in GAL - Created wrong?

    I have a strange issue that is causing me angst and making me argue with my network manager.  Here's the lowdown.  Please shed some light on it if you can.
    Every place I have worked prior to my current company I would do the following steps to create a new user (new employee).  In AD I would
    copy an existing user with the same/similar permissions, distro list membership, etc...  Then go into
    EMC and create a new mailbox for an existing user
    and link it to the new AD object I had just created.  This always worked for me.  Here it doesn't.  When I do it that way, the new user mailbox does not get added to the GAL.  If you go to
    All Users they show up.  I have read several articles about using cached mode and if I turn it off the user will show up.  Unfortunately most of our employees are in the field for long periods of time so we need to run in cached mode.
    The way the network manager wants them created (and this way works) is to create a new user mailbox for a
    new user in EMC which also creates the AD object.  Then I have to go back to AD and manually add the user to permissions groups, distro lists, add profile settings, etc...  Very tedious and manual process.  
    Can someone help me understand why doing it my way, which I have done for years on other networks, is not working here?  Since we are using cached mode do I have to create the user object and mailbox the way he does it?

    I believe the way you are doing it and the way he is doing it is doing exactly the same thing as far as when it shows up in the GAL.  The problem sounds like exactly what you said in that you are using cached mode which uses an Offline Address Book
    (OAB).  If you look in EMC under Organization Configuration/Mailbox/Offline Address Book, you will see the update schedule.  What happens is when you create the account it shows up in the address book right away however it only shows up in the OAB
    when that updater runs.  Even after that is done, the outlook client needs to go out and download the OAB file, which happens 24 hours from the time it last downloaded the OAB.  I'm not sure if there is a fix for your problem as it appears to be
    by design.  Perhaps your old company may have been running in online mode?  You may want to look at
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841273/en-us for more details.
    Q1: What is cached mode?
    A1: Cached mode is the new default configuration for Outlook. It provides an experience that is similar to the offline configuration in earlier versions of Outlook. When you are running in cached mode, your Exchange mailbox is synchronized to a local
    file (an .ost file), and the offline address list from your Exchange computer is synchronized to a collection of files (.oab files) on your client computer. Outlook directly accesses the .ost file and the .oab files on your hard disk instead of communicating
    directly with your server or servers. Therefore, network communication between Outlook and Exchange is significantly reduced.
    Q2: Why does cached mode generate an offline address book?
    A2: The offline address book  contains a set of all the properties of a user (such as e-mail addresses and names) that Outlook requires. With an offline address book, Outlook does not have to connect to the global catalog to resolve names, nor
    does it have to open a person’s details record. Instead, Outlook easily obtains this information from the local offline address book.
    Q5: How frequently is the offline address book updated on the Outlook client?
    A5: If left constantly running, Outlook in cached mode automatically updates the offline address book on the client every 24 hours. The 24-hour time period is measured from the time that the offline address book was last downloaded successfully. For
    example, if you complete an offline address book download at 09:00 today, Outlook will start the offline address book download the next day at approximately 09:00. Therefore, different people will receive updates at different, random times.
    Note The default setting on the Exchange computer is to generate an offline address book differential file every morning at 04:00. For a change that is made in Active Directory to reach the client computer, the following events must occur:
    The change must be picked up by the Exchange computer that generates the offline address book files. This can take several hours. At worst, it can take 24 hours. This variable will be referred to as "x."
    The Outlook clients must download the offline address book updates every 24 hours. This update can take several hours. At  worst, it can take 24 hours. This variable will be referred to as "y."
    The update reaches the client machines x+y hours later. It would be rare for a client to ever experience a 48-hour delay or more unless there were some Active Directory or public folder replication issues.
