TS3623 ATV3 massive streaming issues?

Hello,
For 4 days, we have been experiencing massive streaming issues with downloading content from itunes to ATV but also to other devices such as iphone, ipad and PC. Not only media content downloads present issues but also app updates. My full home set up has been checked and tested. Downlod speeds are in excess of 15mbps.
We are located in Bavaria, south Germany.
Is apple facing serious server problems as in the summer 2012? Or is it a software update problem? Is there an ETA for a fix?
Thanks & Kind regards,
Tim

Massive stability issues - Disk Utility repair failed, hardware test failed

Hi,
I am having massive stability issues. The installer will not install anything, programs are quitting randomly, and it is getting very annoying!
I read through a lot of posts and I have attempted to:
Repair my disk using the install cd: but that failed.
I did a Hardware test: but i had an error relating to fonts (?), couldn't see anything on the screen and I couldn't do anything.
Is there something else I could do that I haven't tried?
I have had my PB for a little over a year and have had no issues like this before. All of these issues seemed to start when I was playing a game and it suddenly just quit; I then couldn't go back into the game or re-install the game.
Help!!
12" Powerbook G4 1.5Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.6) 768 RAM

Hi, Dan.
You wrote: "Repair my disk using the install cd: but that failed."That's a big problem. You won't get very far until the problems noted by Repair Disk, the function I presume you ran based on your description, are sorted out. It's possible the hard drive has failed.
If the Apple Hardware Test failed, that's another significant problem. If it produces messages you can read that describe the failure, write them down. The machine may need to be serviced by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
As to your next steps, first run the procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified to see what's up with your disk and if anything can be done to correct that.
Good luck!

Major streaming issue!

Hey Guys,
I am having major streaming issues with my Macbook and Apple TV. Here is a detailed overview of my setup.
Netgear 802.11G Router
SSID off
WEP 128 Bit hex key
DHCP
Wireless devices
Powerbook G4
Macbook
Apple TV
iPod Touch
XP laptop
Wired device
XP desktop
All these devices are able to access the wireless network fine - and have no problem connecting to the internet.
Apple TV is running SW 2.0 - I don't know if the same issue would have occurred in SW 1.0 as I did the SW upgrade on it straight away (getting close to a system reset though)
I am able to see the Apple TV in iTunes 7.6 and have all the details of my Apple TV.
When I try to play any of "my movies" I sometimes get an error saying can't recognize file type or something along those lines - or it just gets stuck on a black screen with the buffering "spinning gear" winding till the Apple TV goes in to the screen saver.
I tried on many different resolutions but it did not fix the issue.
The same thing happens with TV Shows and Podcasts - haven't tried YouTube just yet.
I am able to play movie trailers though both standard definition and high definition.
Another thing to mention is the load up of the Apple TV is very jittering and stutters.
The thing that makes me wonder is I ran it on another Netgear G router network earlier today and everything went fine - and I was able to playback videos that I am not able to do now - which kind of makes me look at the network - but the fact that HD trailers load almost instantly and play fine makes me think perhaps Apple TV? The fact it doesn't load smoothly concerns me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just removed Apple TV from iTunes and cleared an connections in "Computer" tab of Apple TV and reset everything - still the same issue.
Apple TV loads very jittery and it doesn't load video files to playback - but it does playback music and movie trailers. I am guessing it has no problems with the trailers as that is not something that gets accessed via the Macbook. Really starting to think this could be a bandwidth issue know, just weird that it was all hunky dory on another G network! Besides all my laptops get full reception where the Apple TV is situated and I can't think of any interference in the position that it is in.
Any other ideas people - don't want to have to shell out for a base station just right now.

Photo Stream issue. Photo Stream shows 263 photos when viewed on the iMac, 289 when viewed on the iPad and 327 when viewed on the iPhone. How can this be?

YouTube streaming issues

Is anyone else having YouTube streaming issues? I can only get about 5-10 seconds of video to play. Then if I try to restart the video it doesn't play at all. It's been this way for a couple of days now. It doesn't matter which wifi network I'm on either. I read the videos are going through an Apple proxy server so I wonder if the server is having issues since it used to work just fine.
I have a new 8GB 3g touch with about 1.5 GB of free space. All other Internet apps work fine.
-posted from my touch using Safari.

Restored and setup as a brand new iPad - same issue.
Likely the app itself,
Other apps such as twitch.tv / Air video HD etc stream without issue (even with the screen auto locking
I'll bring this up with Google.

IS07 Car Music Bluetooth Streaming Issue - Help Needed

I drive an Audi A1 which I have owned from new 11 months ago. I updated my iPhone 5 to the IS 7.0.4 around 1 month ago and since doing that I now have streaming issues in my car. The connection is via bluetooth, and the music is streamed from my iPhone, however since the update the music cuts out, skips and pauses............
I took the car to a service centre today where it was confirmed a known issue within the Audi network.
So how do we go around this? What do I need in order to stream music without the interference? I am pretty sure Apple wouldn't want to pay my car invoice for the added extras that I purchased in order for me to enjoy my music so surely there must be a way around this?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

This is not about law, it's about software/hardware. But since you're bringing it up, when Siri was introduced for the iPhone 4s, there was a man in a car using siri with his apple earplugs. I searched for law about this in my country (Netherlands) and it's not forbidden.
Now back to my issue: I want to use a headphone to listen to music and I want to make a call through bluetooth. Iphone doesn't remember I was listening to the music through the headphone. Issue, right?

Massive stability issues. Firefox crashes often.

Ever since Firefox updated to the latest version, I've been having massive stability issues. I downgraded back to version 19, but it is still very unstable. I have to force-quit often when it becomes unresponsive - a dozen times a day or more.
Things I have tried:
- Updating all plugins.
- Scrubbing my registry.
- Clean install/reinstall.
- Deleting tracking cookies.
- Scanning for viruses and spyware.
- Downgrading to previous version.
I want to continue using Firefox, but this has gotten unbearable.

ITunes & iRadio streaming issues, why?

Hello from Miami,
All this week I have been experianceing issues with either my iTunes Store giving me iTunes store errors windows along with the iRadio player acting up also. I have contacted apple support to clear caches along with anything else that needs clearing out. Well tonight the issues returned, I have to make an educated guess and say it's not at my end.
Has anyone else experianced similar issues, update me.
Thank you

I was the originator of my post the other night.. "iTunes & iRadio Streaming issues, Why?" posted on October 19th. It is that another person chimed in on my topic, paulie74".
I do not feel I was lectured, I was simply stating how you treated this other apple user, "paulie74" by stating the following. You said,
"Also ranting about quality control will not help your cause, I use both and have absolutely no issues as do millions of others."
Being positive and not being unhelpful is not what these forums are about, then you also mentioned,
"perhaps you should read the Terms of Use you agreed to", I know the terms of these forums and those of the Apple company, I am not new to Apple, and would respectfully suggest that you be more constructive regarding your comments and not expresses yourself in a way that upsets others.
And yes, I will forward all this onto Apple, for I trust they will do what's right as always.
Thank you,
Mohegan

Streaming issues MacBook Air -- Apple TV ?

Hello everybody.
Does or did anyone of you eperience the same streaming issue with an macbook air mid 12 and an apple tv3?
Only streaming from this device, any other will work proper (such as iPhone4 , iPad 2, etc.).
The issue is:
- streaming aborted
- after 30-45 mins of video streaming - video only
- apple tv not reachable
- apple tv has no internet connection / content, etc
- macbook gets very hot in the top left corner (wifi module?)
- no airplay, mirroring etc. works any more with the mentioned device
- only restar of apple tv helps
Both devices are connected via the same WIFI/router. Network type (5GHz or what ever) is unknown due to the fact that I've forgotten my router password. I thought this is where I am probably able to check some things... (I am soving my password stuff right now with my provider).
so...any ideas?
forum search and google-it did not work (for me). open to any suggestions.
many thanks in advance :-)

Hey mathezmichal,
Congratulations on the purchase of your Apple TV. The resources below will help you troubleshoot the issue you are having AirPlay, specifically streaming video from the MacBook Air. Since YouTube is one of the channels on the Apple TV, I would suggest accessing the videos directly for that particular service.

ATV3 stops streaming after 20 seconds

Seems like anything I try to watch, whether trying to stream from my iPhone to watching movie trailers, everything stops at about 20 seconds in, then pauses indefinitely.
My download sipped is around 14.4Mps on comcast through my router and AirPort Extreme.
Any ideas? Should I try a restore or reset?
My ATV2 streams fine @ 720dpi. Even if I lower the resolution on the ATV3 to 720, it still doesn't work. Also getting a lot of spinning circles while it attempts to connect to the Apple Store when switching to different trailers.

Hello Jim,
I would recommend restarting the Apple TV

2nd Gen Mac Mini, iTunes Streaming issues

Feeling flushed I've replaced my ATV1, 1st gen Time Capsule and Mac Mini and moved them down to the retirement home we're working on.
One of the reasons I replaced the Mac Mini was everytime I booted up I had to run diagnostics to get the airport running effeiciently . However, in the other place still using the TC as the wireless router it appeared to working much better. Then I added the old ATV1. Again for a week things were great.
Then...... while streaming music to the ATV1 and an Airport Express upstairs I noticed it started coughing and cutting out. I'd have to reconnect the speakers (ATV1 in the same room & AE upstairs) and restart the track. After experimenting what seems to be happening is:
When playing iTunes to the ATV1 and AE Speakers if I trying and download something large it cuts out, and if open Airport Utility or iStumbler (checking the power on each device for wireless power) it coughs badly recovering intermitantly. I can internet to my hearts content without any problems and up load massive documents to iDisk without interupting the music????
Apart from the AE ('n') they are all 'g' devices. iStumbler is showing relatively low signal strength for TC (41% ish about 20 feet away) and the AE (19% immediately upstairs above the Mini). As we're on the beach the only two other neighbours signals are showing and are really weak.... so the 'noise' is almost nothing.
In a wireless network siutation does the Mini talk directly to the speakers or does it have to go through the TC?? Is the Mini card dying or is it the TC? Caould I use another AE ('n') plugged into the Mini as the wirelss card?
Or is it the ATV1 dragging the signal down?
sigh... it was all going so well......

Thanks that's really helpful.
Sorry; aren't the old Mini, TC and ATV1 all g and the new AX n? Same principle though. I thought the AX was allegedly b/g/n compatible?
Should have know the AX might be the prob. I had an issue with one here. It was too near the ATV1 and was interfering with its visibility. When I seperated them further (distance) the both became visible and signals improved. The trouble is because of the house construction I need a boost upstairs. The AX works great for internet extension.
Did I read somewhere someone reset an AX for g only?
Cheers.

Pulseaudio streaming issues

Hello,
I've got a little problem with pulse and the network streaming feature, but haven't found any solutions yet.
I'm trying to stream audio from my Linux laptop to my Windows pc. That's working fine!
When playing music with vlc, everything works well. But when playing something else (for example youtube), the sound is massively stuttering!
I think that's an issue on the client side, when i'm playing both sources together (music over flc and an youtube video), the video is stuttering and the music does not.

KylaR10 I tried several issues to fix it, but looks like if you disable your airplay it will work properly. When I had first the problem and couldn't solve it, I hacked it my Apple TV and installed a jailbreak version. The same problem developed again. So I restored it to the latest OS that's out from Apple and the same problem developed. So I tried disabling the Air Play and haven't had a single problem since.

IOS 8.1 massive battery issue

Since I've been updating my 5s with latest 8.1, my 5s now facing a battery drainage problem!! Massive! I've been charged full 100% battery and with only 1 hour while playing slight wechat only, it draining like **** until 70%.. And heating like oven!! This never happen before! Even before i've been playing with heavy use of wechat, beetalk, games and video, it still remain 84%.. Now it's draining like water leaking.... iOS 7 is always better 1001% compare to iOS 8.. There is always a new problems!! U guys solved 10 problems/bugs, but again u guys will create 2 to 3 new problems!! What's wrong with Apple nowaday?! Think about to moving on to Samsung!

I'm also seeing something like this. I believe I may have isolated one issue that Apple have verbally acknowledged: Re: Did iOS8.1 fixed the battery draining and heating problem with iPhone 5s?
However i wonder if it's more general. Just a few hours browsing on my phone with very little running in the background uses a lot of battery. I go to use settings and it tells me that Safari has used 45% of th battery in a few hours. This never happened on ios7.
After each release of iOS there is usually a load of people moaning about battery life who don't understand the options of how their phone works but it does feel like there is a genuine issue here. A lot of the noise seems to be coming from iPhone5S owners, I wonder if the more General wifi issues are causing problems elsewhere......
i Don't suspect it will be that long before we see a patch.

Apple TV started having streaming issues with Netflix

Several days ago my Apple TV is no longer providing consistent streaming throught Netflix. Before that, I had great streaming through all content for many months.
Issues, configuration and some actions already taken:
Video quality starts suffering, then some pauses/buffering begins.
I have tried the same Netflix account, content and network to trace the issue and found out through my Macbook Air and iPad and the streaming is excellent.
My Apple TV is connected to my ISP through an Ethernet cable at 200 Mbps (tested @ Speedtest.net)
I already restarted several times, and restored once my Apple TV.
Software is updated since it became available.
Yesterday, I found a post which recommended to manually setup my DNS to 008.008.008.008 which I did and worked great at that time, but todays problems are back with that fixed DNS and with Auto setup.
I hove someone here can help me with some further advice, or perhaps Apple very soon releases a fix. Seems that the latest update improved Airplay consistency to deliver both video and audio and not only video, but might have broken Netflix streaming.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, I'm having the exact same issue since the latest update. I thought it was my internet connection but it worked perfectly fine in my ipad and macbook air.
I also have 2 Apple TV's and the problem is in both of them. I really hope apple fixes this issue ASAP.
In the meantime, if you wanna watch your netflix content on your apple tv with good streaming and you have an iPad/iPhone with netflix on it. I recommend Airplay mirroring the iOS device and then opening netflix, it will airplay the video content and the iphone/ipad screen will function as a remote control with all the settings and stuff...its kinda cool...the only bad thing is that you can't turn off the iPad/iPhone screen or it will pause the movie.
i hope this works for you while apple fixes this issue.
