Turn Off Netflix/Apple TV Audio Description?

When I began the new season of a show I was watching on Netflix, an audio description of the show suddenly started playing. I have searched high and low trying to figure out if it was AppleTV, Netflix, my remote (Harmony), or my TV (a Sharp Aquos) that suddenly decided I needed that feature. So far, no luck. Does anyone have a solution?

Hey you guys, Me too, It just happened to me right now, was trying to watch New Girl (can't live without Jess Day, but we all know this by now...) season two to be exact, and it started doing this annoying narrating thing, totally turns me off by the way (in a Schmidt voice) "we build this Schmidtty on tootsie roll"... Lol
has anybody come up with a solution to this, or I'll just have to bare with it for the next two episodes... (I have watched all three seasons for the third time now) But still need it to be perfect every time I watch!!!! Thanks...

How can i turn off my apple tv

how can I turn off my apple tv? i can't , i don't know how...

You don't. Just don't use it for a while and it will go to sleep, but it cannot be completely turned off (aside from unplugging it).

Is there a need to turn off my Apple TV when I'm using it? If so, how do I turn it off?

Kappy,
I know you said that my Apple TV shuts itself off after about an hours idle time but mine only shuts itself off radomly maybe one every two days even when the TV has been off and the iMack has been off over night. My wife and I both have iPhones and she has an iPad which may be causing the Apple to stay on. Don't know. Incidentally, my Apple TV shows my iMack iPhoto pictures and albums great. Still a little concerned that it doesn't shut off after some idle time.

HT200154 how do you turn off the apple TV box? There doesn't seem to be an off button. The status light stays on.

Usually, when you put it to sleep mode, the status light will turn off. To put it into sleep mode, go to Settings.
If you want it completely off, then I guess the only way to do it is to pull the electric plug.

How do I turn off my apple tv?

Well, now I've tried the method of holding the "select" button down for five seconds or longer, and it doesn't turn the machine off (or standby).
This is not a big deal, more a matter of curiosity and maybe I want to be like the big boys who sell universal remotes and program something to control it myself someday (yeah, whatever).

How do I turn off my Apple TV?

Interesting and really helpful! I just discovered the newest AppleTV was causing my Free To Air digital TV signal to cut out when it came back to live (the AppleTV). I was panicking a bit over the last couple of days wondering why the TV signal was disappearing ... with the Olympics coverage coming up.
Now when I put the AppleTV to sleep the TV signal comes back.
The AppleTV has its own HDMI port connection ... not sure how it coming to life causes the Digital TV signal to crap out.

HT1586 is there a way to turn off my apple tv not going to stand by mode

is there a way to turn off my apple tv not going to stand by mode

The Apple TV will go into standby mode. You would have to unplug it for it. The device uses very little power so there shouldn't be a need to do this.

Is it possible to turn off the Apple dock completely?

I was wondering if it was possible to turn off the Apple dock completely without causing irreparable damage to my system. I am considering using Drag Thing, but when I am using it the functionality seems redundant with the Apple dock, also using both programs in tandem uses up more precious memory. The Drag Thing website links to the following tutorial as a solution:
http://www.creativemac.com/2003/02_feb/tutorials/dockdead2030225.htm
But it was published a long time ago, and I don't want to do anything rash that would damage my system, I mean I don't dislike the Apple dock enough to do that. Thanks in advance for the consideration and suggestions.

I could only discover an option to hide the dock from within Drag Thing. I am looking to make the dock disappear completely. Drag Thing does not officially support this option, giving this answer in the Q & A section of their website:
"*It is possible, but I wouldn't recommend it. Since people often ask how to do it anyway, here's a good tutorial I found on how to kill the Dock by Kevin Schmitt. This may have unforseen side effects however, which is why I've not documented the procedure myself, or added an option for this in DragThing. I keep the Dock hidden off the bottom of the screen on my own Mac.*"
Is the dock so embedded within the Finder's operations that killing it will affect system performance?

Turning off the apple tv voice

How do I turn off the Apple TV "voice?"

Hey Fortovia,
Thanks for the question. I understand you wish to turn off VoiceOver on your Apple TV. The following article outlines how to navigate to the Accessibility menu, where you can enable or disable VoiceOver:
Apple TV (2nd generation): How to enable VoiceOver
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4466
If VoiceOver becomes disabled on your Apple TV, you can use these steps to enable VoiceOver again.
1. Press and hold the Menu button for five (5) seconds. This will return you to the main menu screen of the Apple TV.
2. Press the Down button one time. This ensures that you are at the top-level of the menu.
3. Press the Right button until you hear a Stop or "Bonk" sound; you are on the Settings menu.
4. Press the Up button until you hear the Stop sound indicating you are at the first menu item; this is the General menu.
5. Press the Select button.
6. Press the Down until you hear the Stop sound.
7. Press the Up button two times. You should be on the Accessibility menu.
8. Then press the Select button twice. This will select VoiceOver and enable it.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Turn off the Apple TV

How does one turn off the Apple TV during a presentation so that the audience doesn't see the "Apple" stuff after the presentation?
JAS

I believe the last menu item under Setttings is "Sleep" (you may need to scroll down to see it) That should do what you want.
(Heck if doesn't, just unplug it).

Ow do you turn off the apple tv after watching a movie

how do you turn off the apple tv after watching a movie

It never actually powers off but will go into idle/sleep state as Kate suggests.
To be honest it uses under 6W of power when in use, less when not so it may not be a huge problem, though I suppose every little helps when it comes to saving power.

How to turn off receiving apple support communities emails

how to turn off receiving apple support communities emails on imac and ipad?

In addition ,you can go to Your Stuff - Profile- Manage Email Notifications (in the upper right hand Actions box) - either check individual threads to remove or click in the top box which will check all the threads and then click on Remove Email Notifications.
Also check the tutorial for managing email subscriptions
You might also make sure that you haven't subscribed to one of the communities by mistake.
Go to the community that you are receiving the emails from and the same box called "Actions" will appear there just like it does next to the individual question. Make sure that you are not reciveing email notifications for that community. Probably the community where you asked your question. Typically that is what causes people to get 100's of email notifications. I think that this is not included in the tutorial so a lot of people miss it.

When I drag a synchonised clip to timeline, can I turn off the video's audio track only without breaking apart clips?

I have preparred many clips by synchonising them with audio recorded on H4N - and have these in keywords.
When I drag them to the timeline, do I have to break apart each clip item to turn off the video's audio track or is there a shortcut to doing this?

For each clip you can go to the audio portion of inspector and uncheck/disable the tracks you don't desire. That would take longer than Tom's method, but I think the audio won't show up as a blank later on.

The question was the phone is under water - not muffled nor low sound. It is getting regular that my iPhone 4S and others I know get the sound distorted as though it is under water. I have reset the phone, turned off wifi (Apple said do this). What can be done?

Meg St._Clair
Thank you. I rang Vodafone and although they were not too technical - they suggested my speaker was broken and was probably interfering with the microphone sound out as well. So thank you for the clue - I must admit to not thinking of ringing my carrier supplier. Thank goodness for two things - it is intermittent and I am due an upgrade phone in 6 weeks. I can manage till then I hope with the watery sound from time to time.

HELP please... iPhone won't start or turn off. Apple logo only

I try to reboot the phone w/by pressing the button on top and the button on the bottom of the face of the phone. The phone will go dark then come back w/just the apple logo... it goes no where else.
HELP

Known issue (better to say known quirk, not issue, however Apple should document it.) When you force boot the phone while it is loaded and running you corrupt some database and next boot will take a long time to rebuild this information. My 32GB 3Gs can take up to 7-8 minutes to boot as I have it full of music and I think it's rebuilding the music database during this long boot startup. The situation you are in now is that you have to wait for it to finish booting. The best way I have found if you phone is not stuck is to push top button until you get Red slider to turn off, slide it and allow phone to power off itself. Once off, Hold Top button and Home buttons, Keep holding them, you will see Apple logo pop up, KEEP HOLDING BUTTONS, do not release them until Apple logo goes away. If when you release both buttons the phone starts up and you see the Apple logo you have not held the buttons long enough as it sometimes will need to cycle down twice. When you have it right, when you release both buttons the screen will stay black and phone will not auto-power up. In this state the phone is fully off, not in standby. If you have previously powered the phone off gracefully with the top-button+swipe then hit top button for a couple of seconds and Apple logo should appear and phone should boot within a minute and be ready for use. If you cycled the phone without first gracefully shutting down, the bootup process can take much longer, give it at least 10 minutes before giving up. I have not found this documented by Apple anywhere, I found it from trial and error. My wife has 16GB 3Gs and while playing with both I found this out. Hope it helps you.
