When i´m watching a movie, listening music or any other thing, the apple tv shuts down automatically.
I would like to know if anyone have issues with their apple tv2 when it´s working and suddenly shuts down.
This happens to me repeatedly and don´t know how to solve it.
Please, if anyone can help with this.
Thanks.
Hi, thanks for the reply.
Actually, that's not good enough. What's the point of having a separate audio output if the hdmi is always required?
It's a shame that the AppleTV doesn't do just audio playback, as it seems like a feature that should be present considering that it provides a discrete audio output.
Airport Express is not an option, as I want to have digital audio output and be able to process it with my DAC.
I don't have an A/V receiver, just a stereo integrated amplifier, so I can't connect the HDMI to a receiver like others who had a similar issue. I'll try to "fool" the Apple TV with an HDMI switcher and see if that solves the problem. In the meantime, I found out that my TV (sony) has an option to turn off the backlight, which does the trick, although it's a little annoying to surf the TV menu for that option every time I just want to play some music.
I'm really disappointed by this, and I'm looking forward to a firmware update that fixes this issue (hopefully there will be one)

i've been forced by my comp to shut down several times by holding the power button because of the inability to select the apple and shut down correctly..idk if i got a rare mac virus or bug.. and some programs simply won't open when clicked on.. i don't know how this is possible after years of great performance..
Where did you get this "dmg file"? To install the newest version of any Apple software, including iTunes, all you have to do is use Software Update from the Apple menu. This doesn't download any dmg, it automatically installs the software for you.
Maybe try repairing your permissions from Disk Utility (in your Utilities folder).
Also - What version of OS X do you have? Please update your forum profile so we can help you better.

TS3899 iPhone 5s Mail app shut down automatically when try to send email
I just set up new iPhone 5s two days ago from iPhone 5.
Everything works fine except Mail app.
Due to Mail app, I had to set up new configuation instead of back up from old iPhone 5.
Mail app works fine 1 day, but after the day after, the mail app shut down automatically when try to send email.
Just one specific email account has problem. It worked fine on iPhone 5. Same setting on Pop and SMTP. Exactly same~~
- I did try to reset iPhone 5s pressing home button and sleep button for 10 second. It did not work
- I did try to reset all information and install iPhone 5s and the problem still exists.
- I did try to delete specific email account and re-make it, but it did not work
Funny thing is that if Lanuague is English, then sending email is working. Absolutely no problem.
However, if Language setting is Korean, then Mail App shut down automatically.
I'm heavy email maker and if it is very annoying.
Does anyone have same issue like this?
I believed it is iOS7 bug?
Can anyone help me on this???Am having similar problems with a new iPad Air. It will recieve email in Mail as directd from my domain email account. It will not send, advising server does not recognise account. I have checked and re checked settings.
My computer and old iPad work perfectly. Any ideas would be really appreciated.
By the way sending email directly from the domain email account works perfectly but I prefer using Mail.

I have just bought apple tv which allows me to play music through airport express but when chose to watch a movie the audio comes from the tv and does not give option listen through other speakers served through airport express. Can you help me ?
No, you cannot seperate the audio and video stream.
You can use optical audio to a sound system (I use sony sound bar) and play the audio via that.

My iMac plays background music when I am using Safari. Right now, as I am typing this message, it is playing background music. When I am watching a movie on Netflix, it plays background music which interferes with the movie. How do I turn this off?
So pause iTunes or whatever application you are using for background music, before starting the movie.

Macbook Pro says plug in failure when trying to watch a movie
My Macbook Pro says plug in failure when trying to watch a movie.
This did not work and I'm glad that I only paid for the cheapest plan on macupdate.com. For other people that view this discussion, after a couple of days of trying things and then viewing a couple of other discussions, what worked for me was uninstalling my Silverlight and then reinstalling it. Thanks for everyones input !!!!

Hello, I have a MacBook Air, when I was watching a movie it started to freeze, so I turned off. But when I turn it on just the white screen appears nothing else. I looked on other websites, but the methods didn't help.
Try a Safe Mode boot ...
Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
A Safe Mode boot takes much longer than a normal boot so be patient.
Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu. -
Bug Report iOS 7 iTunes. Since it is repeatable on 3 iPhones and 4 iPads here, I'm sure others are experiencing the same thing. Apple, might want to take a peek at this. When a tv show or movie is deleted from Videos, the Videos app shuts down instead of returning to video playlist.
Restarting videos works and looks like video is getting deleted.
Just a bug reportYou might want to report that to Apple instead of to the other users in this forum.

I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini. My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed. So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone. How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?
If you still have the crashed Win computer, you may be able to recover your music and movies from the hard drive. If you have a friend with a hard drive USB connection kit and a PC, they should be able to help. Otherwise, check locally for computer services that might do that for you (I think Best Buy Geek Squad may be able to help). If the drive itself is in good shape, it shouldn't be too expensive.

Need help! I can't listen music by my headset and the loudspeaker works well, what should i do ?
if you mean that you can't listen to music from the headset and from the phone speaker at the same time then that is by design works the same with all things really such as computer and the likes too
if you mean that the device does not play out of a connected headset only out of the speaker then you have a hardware issue with the headset detector you can read more about it here even though most have the opposite issue but it's the same issue really
