On the initial set up for apple tv it just sits there trying to set the date and time . it is a wireless setup and the ipaddress and router address is correct . I can't get by this screen. The setting is on automatic and I have picked a city in my time zone yet it still tries to set a time and date but fails.
thanks

Make sure router is up to date. Try ethernet to rule out any wifi issues. Reboot ATV and router.

Have you tried resetting the device?
Hold down the home and lock buttons until you see an Apple Logo, then release the buttons.
If that doesn't work, you should check to see if you have a backup because you may have to restore your device.

You can remove the Airplay password from the Settings menu on your AppleTV.

I set up my new HP Descjet 3054A . I had a problem becouse Apple give me CD as a driver. The thing was that CD wasn good for this printer becouse it was old software:) I had to go to Apple store so the specialist had to download me he wright driver. Becouse I didnt wannet to screw this up . When he downloaded driver I fired it up at house and thingworks perfect. The thing is when you download all the software from HP side . Then you have to connect your MAC to printer via USB . Fallow the instructions it should works. Worked for me. Good Luck!

Does your question involve iPhoto in some way?

HT201401 The screen on my IPhone 4 states that MyCloud hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks and needs to be plugged in, locked, and set to WI-FI connection. I can't get past this screen to do this. Help!

I am unable to get past this screen in order to take care of this. I plug it in nightly. Wouldn't it just back-up ICloud then?

I have the same problem now in iphone 4S, can't pass the message or restart my phone, screen is locked in the message nothing else can be done....

Updated today and am stuck at itunes cable screen. phone is locked down, can't get past this screen.

I updated iTunes today, my phone was connected to my Windows computer and I got a screen telling me iTunes didn't update.
I downloaded iTunes again, and I restarted my computer and connected phone to it, iTunes doesn't come up nor does it see my phone. Should I reset my phone?

Hello ellenfromelpaso,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I see that your iPhone is displaying a connect to iTunes screen, and it is not being recognized by iTunes on your PC. If this is the case, then I'd like you to please follow the first article below for the issue where your iPhone is not being recognized. Once that issue is resolved, you may then proceed with restoring your iPhone.

I am just now setting up my ipad2 and it wont connect to my wireless network. I can't get it to do anything--it is just sitting there trying to connect. Help!

Hi,
I've gone through some of the set-up and now cannot move forward past the Internet connection screen. It won't connect nor allow me to do anything now that I've entered my password???
Thanks!

No, you did what i suggested. If it asks for the password, then you are talking to the router. That is a good sign. Some folks dont get that far. What is happening now, is the security in the router is not accepting what you are inputting from the pad, or there is some setting in the router blocking your access.
With all the time you have spent on this, and re reading the previous posts, it sounds like you have done everything that i can think of.
Maybe the trip to costco is the answer, and if so, sorry i wasted your time.
Are you comfortable enough with your router to open its contro
Panel up and look at the settings? If so, take a peek. Some routers are set to only allow new devices that are identifed by mac adress. Others, in the securit section, may have a block turned on. But if either of those were the case, you would know, because you would have set it up that way.
If you are an experimenter, try turning off the wifi security entirely, and see if you can join the net work. If you can, then you will have confirmed that the isue js tied directly to theway the router and pad were trying to negotiate the security.
If you can join if it is open, then reset to the lowest type of security you can, get it owrking, then keep moving up until you find the block point.
Glad it is a holiday weekend, so maybe you have the time to **** with it.

I can't get my phone to register appl id for facetime/imessage: It just sits there and does nothing. This is annoying and I'm using my phone as an ipod in Japan since it won't transfer carriers, how do I fix this?

My phone is unable to transfer over here in Japan, so I am using it as an ipod while I have a new phone. It wont register my apple id for facetime or anything though, am I supposed to get an email with a link or something?

activation of imessage requires the ability to send an SMS message to a number commencing with +44. Do you have the ability to send international text messageswhile in Japan?

Did you take a backup in between taking the photos and deleting them ? If you did then try restoring to that backup (you will need to restore the whole iPad, you can't just do the Photos app) and they should be put back.

When you create new albums directly on your iPad and 'copy' photos into them you are effectively just creating pointers to the orginal photos, you aren't creating copies of the photos - so if you then delete the original photo you will also be deleting all pointers to and therefore be removing it from all albums that you've copied it into (you should have got a warning when deleting the photo that that would happen).

I downloaded the newest version of iTunes, and now I cannot open the iTunes store. It just sits there and says it's loading for hours, but does nothing.

I downloaded the most recent version of iTunes, and now the iTunes store won't open. It just sits there and says 'accessing iTunes store for hours, but does nothing.

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 n above) - START>PROGRAMS>ACCESSORIES>Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

No, this should be the number one thing you are concerned about.
Until you get this sorted, there is a good chance you may simply lose everything.
Do you hav ean external drive?
If so copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder to the external drive.
Then you can delete /Music/iTunes/ empty the trash and recover this space.
Do this then Apple menu > Software update.
Restart the computer
Then post back.
