Since ATV Update, slideshow malfunctions

Updated ATV, now using slideshow with photo library (iTunes) leads to a malfunction. It takes forever to load my photo library. Then during the slideshow, only shows first 20-30 photos, then begins the slideshow again. This library has some 12,000 photos, but I'm only showing an album of 1800 photos. This is a new problem. Any ideas?

After further research, reset and restarted ATV and restarted iTunes. Now all is well. Sometimes just pulling the plug will work magic!

  • TS5150 No sound on ATV 2nd generation, since latest update.

    Since i updated my ATV 2nd generation to the latest version, i do not have any sound at all.
    I have tried many of the suggested fixes, but nothing works so far.
    I tried all the sound fixes proposed. including restoring the ATV to factory setting, but no luck so far.
    Any advice would be highly appreciated.

    My Razr Maxx BT quit working  with my car after the upgrade also. I am able to connect the older model phones like the LG EnV 3 to the car with no issues. The updates that are pushed to the phone render the BT useless on some vehicles. I have given up ever being able hands free in my vehicle again. The older the car gets, the more that the phone engineering is updated the further away you are from using BT in your vehicle. Until the engineers at Motorola figure out a way to keep this working with older vehicles (don't hold your breath) you may never have that again. Check your vehicle manufacturer website for compatible phones, in my case, if I go back to the dinosaur phone I would have hands free again. And by the way, a hard re-set probably would not work. It did not work for me.

  • Many problems since the update - help?

    Hi all,
    Let me start by saying that I am, for all intents and purposes, a huge Apple booster. I have a new 24" iMac. I have an Airport Extreme. I have an iBook G3 I use for travel (I'm a journalist) and recently handed down my old G3 iMac to my son after loading it up with RAM. I extoll Apple products because they are elegant and simple, and a pure pleasure to use.
    Unfortunately, this hasn't been my experience with Apple TV since the 2.0 update.
    My problems since the update include:
    1) My Apple TV regularly "hangs" when trying to connect to ATV content. About 50% of the time when I try to play a song or podcast or movie preview -- whatever -- instead of connecting to it, I'll get an "Accessing iTunes Store" message which, after about 30 seconds of the little spinning icon, will inevitably revert to "The iTunes Store is currently unavailable. Try again later." I have to "back out" of the submenu (e.g., "Movies" or "Podcasts" or "TV Shows"), and enter another, different submenu before it will connect. I've tried all combinations of Airport settings ( both 2.4 Ghz and 5Ghz N, mixed b/g/n), and many different channels, but this keeps on happening. I have troubleshot my network connection with my ISP, and have tested the integrity of the line at DSL Reports. The connection and line quality is fine. Connection strength: signal = 54; noise = 92. In other words, decent.
    2) When attempting to play HD Trailers, it is now hit and miss whether or not they will load. Instead of a blue progress bar, my screen goes black for about 15-20 seconds. (During this time, I cannot exit out of the action by pressing 'menu' on my Apple remote; it is effectively unresponsive.) After the 15 seconds or so are up, I get the following message: "Selected content is not available. Format is not recognized" -- or something close to this. After I exit, play an SD trailer, and then hit into the same trailer again, it will often (but not always) work.
    3) Album cover art flips often "stick" when turning, especially when playing songs with long, scrolling titles. (I spent a lot of time on the phone with an Apple TV Product Specialist and, after he replicated the issue, he passed on his findings to the Apple Engineering. It is, I was informed, not high on their list of priorities
    4) Unplugging and then replugging the ATV to reboot causes a small electrical spark. Needless to say, I don't tempt fate by doing this any more, and instead use the "-" and "menu" restart method.
    All in all, a very disappointing experience of late. Very un-Apple.
    By the way, connecting to YouTube videos and Flickr contacts ALWAYS works. No problems at all with any non-Apple site accessed through the ATV. So the problem lies with Apple.
    Is anyone else experiencing similar difficulties? I'm at my wit's end with this thing. Never thought I'd be saying that about an Apple product. But I want to try and solve it, so I'm asking for help. If nothing can be done, I'm going to ask Apple to replace it, or return it.
    Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

    That was a paraphrase. The exact words, I'm afraid, I didn't write down. I wish I had, though. It was truly a beautiful example of corporate bafflegab. Something like: "since this only affects the visual aspects of the unit and not its overall performance" -- I told the (very nice) product specialist that the Apple TV was pretty well ALL AND ONLY about visuals. (FWIW, he agreed.) Anyway...

  • ATV Update

    Since I installed the latest atv update I can't play most of the music videos on my atv, all i get is sound and no picture. Any ideas?

    I have tried both sync and stream, i have also restarted and reinstalled atv software, it is just a problem with music videos. They play fine when i uninstall the latest update. Thanks for getting back to me

  • Issues with multiple things since Mavericks update

    I installed the Mavericks update and since, I have been having multiple problems with different things on my MacBook Pro 13"
    1. Printer issues: I have an HP officejet 6500 wireless printer (Officejet 6500 E709n Series), and now it's having major issues with printing, yet was working perfect prior to update. It will either cut out pages when printing PDF documents, or printing so slow that it has to take a break in between printing each document (an issue that all never occurred until update), to print documents back to back, it will stop after one document as though I have no other documents in queue to print, and pauses for an extremely long time (nearly a full minute, no exaggeration here, literally almost a full 60 seconds), something it's never done before this update. My Apps update even did an update to the HP software that is inside the Mac already to use printing (in other words, the mac doesn't need to have the HP software manually installed for it to work, it automatically sees the printer because it is connected to my wireless network just as my Macbook Pro which is also connected wirelessly to my network).
    2. Internet issues: am now unable to click on certain links in safari that I was able to use prior to the update, yet they will open fine inside of firefox with no issues, yet I cannot always switch between two different browsers to perform task online (literally have to start all over inside firefox while in the middle of something in safari). Also lots of websites no longer work correctly and I have to constantly clear history and cookies to attempt to use certain sites, at times it will help, other times it wont work period, yet the same exact site will work perfect in firefox (which I do not use, only on my system for use on certain sites for school because in safari prior to the update, I would have issues with only the class site and some links not working at all, no spinning wheel, no errors, just nothing, no response of any kind, basically worse than what it was before the update). Another issue, hit Ctrl+a to select inside Safari and it highlights, but then when you click out of the highlight, it comes back on it's own several times without you hitting anything, just click inside the screen on a blank space (no links, etc) with touchpad.
    3. System issues:  My system is way slower than what it was prior to the update, click on things and it wont respond at all, then minutes later will eventually respond or pops up the spinning color wheel, which it either never responds or takes an extremely long time to respond. And no matter how much I restart, it doesn't help anything. Even just to sit doing nothing, no clicking or usage on the system, and the color wheel pops up.
    4. Mail issues: Mail is now popping up completely blank messages that I have sent out, the person receives it with no issues, yet I cannot look at the message I sent neither in the inbox or the sent items when I need to look at them again, an issue not present prior to update. Also I an now having issues when receiving mail, sometimes it will check for mail and sometimes I have to manually click to make it check the server for mail, an issue not present prior to update as well.
    As of now, since I have had the chance to used the system since the update, these are the issues I have had, yet haven't had the chance to check other things, so there may be other issues that are occurring that I'm not aware of at the moment. I knew it would be a mistake to do this "free" update and did so anyway and now having one issue after the next with each application I open to use.
    Mac general info:
    Mac is one year old, purchased brand new, no shareware programs of any kind installed.
    Use for school and basic web surfing use.
    Do not install any programs onto system that I'm unsure are safe (basically programs for/from school/school websites only, or from the Mac Apps store only), not even programs like Skype, nor any windows based programs of any kind.
    Lots of free memory avail because I save everything onto external hard drives (purchased brand new as well, only 4months old) in case system crash occurs, only things on the system is Itunes music or pics from photo stream that sync to the system when Iphone connected.
    Mac system info:
    - Processor  2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
    - Memory  4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    - Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
    - Software  OS X 10.9

    For those needing help fixing their system and putting it back to Lion or Mountain Lion, this is what I have done to eliminate all my issues in about an hour (depending on your internet connection).
    Amazing thing, I just restored my computer back to Mountain Lion, and she's working perfect again, as I knew she would. E-mail popping into mailbox instantly as it should and did before the update, printer working fast as it was before update, no more freezing or glitches of any kind thankfully and finally. Here is the link that is through the Apple site to direct you on how to put your system back and get rid of Maverick's, that is assuming that is what you would like to do and also includes link for those wanting to try fixing the issue if that is your preference (most of this info is for those with mountain lion and some with the previousverisoin of OS X lion).
    If you want to keep Maverick's here is a good post on the apple discussion board to help you out:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6161
    If you just want to totally get rid of it and put back what you had before, this is the short version of how to do so:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353
    NOTE: This particular link has a lot of info on what to do for different situations, it is a bit lengthy, yet still very helpful.

    OS X: About OS X Recovery (also from apple support directly and includes some instructions just the same as previous links above):

    Just in case you aren't sure what it will all look like as you are doing things, this is a link to show you a few pics of what you will see  as you as you are going through the process, it can be helpful for those who aren't sure what they are doing or how to do things at all:

    I hope this helps someone, it was amazing for me and my system is working perfect again like it was, battery life is way better went from like 3 hours to like 5 (not on full charge by the way, after it sat for a while doing the online update which took a while so that's saying something alone, huge improvement). I plan to wait a while before attempting to reinstall Maverick's, long enough for them to fix the bugs.

  • In ical, only since the update, when I look at the day view, I can no longer scroll down indefinitely; it stops at one day only

    Since the update, when I use ical , and am on the day view, I no longer can scroll down through multiple days; it stops at one day only. Seems like a poor design change. Any idea how to reverse this?

  • TS3771 My iTunes U no longer works since the update, an error message pops up saying that "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed the tutorial that suggests to change to from 64 to 32 bit and it didn't

    iTunes U video files no longer work on my computer since i update to Mavericks. The following message appears on the screen "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed a tutorial that suggested to go to Applications/iTunes/Get Info and change to 32 bit. Now my iTunes does not open at all, it says it requires 64 bit. I am a bit confused and disappointed. What should I do to get it fixed? Buy a new MacBook?

    Marcello, I am having the same problem.  When following the advice of many in the community to start iTunes in 32-bit mode, I get the following error after I have done so:
    I am running 10.9.2 on a mac mini. 
    I am hoping this will be fixed or at least a solid answer could be given that iTunes will no longer support certain types of media going foward.

  • I have 3 iTunes libraries on my one one computer and since I updated to the new version I can no longer see who's library I am in. It used to show at the top of iTunes the name of the library I was in.  Is there a way I can tell which library I am in?

    No. Frequently the apps take up more storage space on the iPod that the file download size.

    I have an older ipod...ever since I updated the itunes software my ipod no longer works in my car.  my car is a 2013 mercedes E350.  Is there a way to go back to an older version of the itunes software?

    If it's an older iPod, its software is not being updated by Apple.  So, I don't see how updating iTunes would make the iPod not work with the car's audio system, since iTunes just updates the song files (not how the iPod operates).
    Does the iPod work by itself (play songs), when disconnected from the computer and iTunes?

  • Cannot log in to icloud on my phone since I updated to latest ios.

    I cannot sign in to iCloud since I update to the newest software on my iPhone. It keeps asking me to reset my password, which I have done several times. Nothing seems to work. I think I may have two different accounts.

    You are getting this message because you are attempting to create an iCloud account on a PC.  You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account on your PC.
    If you have a 4S, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your Apple ID to create your account.  Then sign in with the same ID on the iCloud control panel on your PC.  It should be accepted this time.

  • My iphone wont let me scroll down on facbook walls since  the update this morning?

    my iphone wont let me scroll down on facbook walls since  the update this morning? does anyone know how to fix this ive foiund a few people on google today its happened to?

    I suspect the error message you saw earlier said something like "the maximum number of free iCloud accounts have already been created" or something similar, which is often associated with a 403 error.
    When you get that message it means that three iCloud accounts have already been created on your device and you cannot create another one.  This often happens when you purchase a used device and the previous owner already used up all of the alloted iCloud accounts on it.  When this happens, all you can do is either re-use one of the accounts previously created or create a new account on another iOS device or Mac when you have one.

  • I restarted my Firefox this morning and it automatically updated to version 9.0.1. Since that update, I am unable to open Firefox - it is giving no response.

    I restarted my Firefox this morning and it automatically updated to version 9.0.1. Since that update, I am unable to open Firefox. When I try to open it (and this is on a Mac), it does not respond and freezes with a white screen, the tab says "connecting...," and there are no bookmarks or anything showing on the browser. It does not respond at all - I cannot even click into the navigation to change any of the preferences. Please, someone help! Not having Firefox is killing me!

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
