If this is a 1st generation Apple TV, then there is a widespread and ongoing issue with the 1st generation units and the iTunes store. Apple is working on it, all we can do is wait. If you want more info, or want work-arounds to get local content playing again nicely, search the forums here, as there are several threads discussing the issue.

How can I make it easier to enter iTunes password on iPhone?
It's a big pain to have to keep re-entering the iTunes password on the iPhone when buying apps (even free ones!). It's even more of a nuisance now because the Apple ID is imposing the use of strong passwords, ie min 8 characters, mix of cases, letters/numbers and punctuation. This is a lot of touchpad keystrokes and error-prone.
I had previously changed to a simple (weak) password in order to make it more practical to use the iTunes store on my iPhone but this is no longer an option because (a) I have the same password for iTunes and for Apple ID and (b) Apple ID is now imposing mandatory strong passwords.
My question is:
Is there a way to make entering the iTunes password on iPhone easier, eg by one-time saving it; or by allowing a different p/w for iTunes and Apple ID; or some other means? As far as I can gather, the iTunes accoundt and the Apple ID have to be the same (and therefore the password the same) but maybe that's not the case?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,

No.
Blame the hackers for forcing Apple to impose these changes. We live in a world where folks are constantly trying to steal your account info. -

I can't reset my itunes password
I can't reset my iTunes password because my recovery email is no longer a working email. Can anyone please advise?
Hello there, thegasclan.
When you have to reset your iTunes password, and your primary email is no longer a functional email address, the following Knowledge Base article offers up the available options:
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
Since you may not know your password and you may not have setup a Recovery Key with two-step verification, your next step is likely to be the following:

Make sure that you’re entering the correct Apple ID. In most cases, your Apple ID is also the primary email address of your Apple ID account. If these steps didn't help you change your password, contact Apple Support.

After changing the iTunes password is it possible to reset it to what I was using previously?
Recently reset my iTunes password. Would now like to change it back to what I was using, but iTunes prevents this. Any way to re-use it?
Very easy, but you will lose all your data. Just follow these steps:
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes
Plug your USB cable into your computer.
Turn your iPhone off by holding the power button down until you see "slide to power off". Do as instructed. WAIT UNTIL PHONE IS OFF.
Now press and hold the Home button while reconnecting the USB cable to your iPhone. After iPhone is connected it should power on the device.
Continue holding the Home button, you will see the Apple logo appear and then finally a "Connect to iTunes" will be displayed, now is the time to release the Home button. You will then see the following image: -
Reset itunes password forgot security questions
I need to reset my iTunes password but unfortunately I don't remember the answers to my security questions, I set up this account like five years ago. Anyone know how to get around this?
Dear, rrhickson
The point of the security questions, are the last resort of access to your account. They should be questions which won't change in the future (i.e your best friend) but will always stay the same. LONG STORY SHORT.
There is no possible way.
UNLESS....
You could contact apple will your case, and they may ask for annother form of indentification such as They Debit/Credit/Bank Card relate with your account, If you used it for itunes though. OR possibly the code from a pre-paid card. But these can be easily aqquired by a hacker.
You just have to contact apple and see wat they say.
Many Thanks

HT1911 Cannot reset iTunes password
I cannot reset my iTunes password. If I select "email authentication" then no email arrives. If I select "answer security questions" then it tells me that I have my own Birthday wrong. I have spent days on this and can't figure out where to get support and ther Apple guy I managed to get on the phone was worse than useless.
I somehow ended up with two iTunes accounts (one with a short user name and one with an email address) so I can log in on some of my devices but not others - hence I am able to post this under my email account.
Argh - I am so frustrated by Apple security.
Can anyone please help?
Thankx,
HanaBest to contact support now for a manual reset. Make sure to mention everything you did for faster resolution.

How do redeem my gift card code after I reset my ITune password? It shows no gift card listed and I no longer have that gift card but still have a balance on it.
With iOS 7 you will have to provide the password for the old ID in order to delete the existing account from your iPad. If you can't do this, contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Produces & Services>Apple ID>iTunes Store, App Store or Mac App Store>Disabled Apple ID.
As far as your missing contacts, when you get the password for the old ID reset, sign in with the ID and your new password at icloud.com and check to see if your contacts are there. If they are, export them as a vCard as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606. You can then import this vCard to your new account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605. -
