Which DAC models work with 2nd generation Apple TV ?
I intend to purchase 2nd generation Apple TV for streaming music/video from latest model of 21.5" iMac through wireless network (Apple Airport Extreme) to audio system and HDTV in living room. The Apple TV will replace existing problematic Airport Express for music streaming.
I have locking/syncing problem to get Cambridge Audio's DacMagic and Meier Audio's StageDAC communicate with Airport Express through digital audio optical connection but no problem at all with Audio-GD's FUN DAC/amplifier. I have decided to use Meier Audio's StageDAC for its excellent sound stage. But will the same locking/syncing problem repeated with latest model of Apple TV ? How different between Airport Express and new Apple TV as far as digital audio optical port is concerned ?
Thanks in advance.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check your iTunes store location is correct, restart the Apple TV by unplugging it, restart your router.

Numark im1 works with 2nd generation ipod touch can it be made to work with 4th generation
Numark im1 works with 2nd generation ipod touch can it be made to work with 4th generation
You neglected to mention that the Numark iM1 is a piece of hardware (a physical box) that plugs into an iPod.
Checking on the Numark website, I suspect they haven't bothered to update their "iPod compatibility" page, since there's no specific reason (as far as I'm aware) why an App that worked with a 2nd gen Touch shouldn't work with a 4th gen model. Is that page where you looked and were then prompted to ask your question?
You might have more success in finding an answer to your question by contatcing the manufacturer (Numark) via their website or checking with a retailer who stocks the iM1. Numark appear to welcome email contact about their products. -
2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore? It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store? Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?
Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one. -
Messaging app that works with 2nd generation ipod touch
I recently downloaded imessenger to my 2nd generation ipod touch but it was hours later and with the help of this forum, that I discovered it is not possible to use with my iOS. Does anyone know of a texting app that I can use?

Will iCloud work with first generation Apple TV?
I noticed on iTunes that iCloud works with Apple TV using software 4.3.3. My first generation unit says it is up to date with its software, 3.0.1. Does this mean I won't be able to use iCloud with my existing Apple TV?
So what do we do, just run to the Apple Store and buy a new "second" generation Apple TV to take advantage of iCloud and all these new wonderful features? iShould have learned when I early adopted a Bluray player.

Will 9.02 iTunes work with 2nd generation nano?
Have any of you installed 9.02 iTunes on your Nano? If so was it successful?
It isn't possible to install iTunes 9.0.2 on a Nano. You can install it on your computer and use it with your Nano, but you cannot put it on the Nano.
Works on my two Macs with my 2nd Generation Nano. -

I purchased the earpods with mic & controls and the features don't work with 6th generation nano--is this normal?
Hi there,
According to the product page:
The remote and mic are supported by all models of iPod, iPhone, and iPad (not all models support volume up/down functions). Audio is supported by all iPod models.
Your iPod Nano may be one of the models that does not support the volume up/down function. Take a look at the page below for more information.

Yesterday, I got asked by my 2nd generation Apple TV if I wanted to update download and install the new software update. I clicked "Yes" and the download and installation process began. Nothing out of the ordinary happened and when the installation completed the Apple TV automatically rebooted itself, which is what has happened with previous software updates.
Alas, after reboot, the only thing that appeared on screen was an old iTunes logo (the one with the CD in the background) and what looked like a USB cable. I went online and found out that other people had been experiencing similar problems with the newly released Apple TV 6.0 update and that they had also ended up with the same image on their screen.
As it turns out, this image apparently means that you need to restore your Apple TV to factory settings by hooking it up to your computer using a micro-USB cable and then using iTunes to restore it in a way analogous to restoring an iPhone via iTunes.
I followed all of the instructions to the letter such as disconnecting my Apple TV from all cables including the power cord and then hooking it up to my computer with the micro-USB cable. I opened iTunes and absolutely nothing happened. The Apple TV does not appear as a device so I am not able to restore it.
I have attempted rebooting my computer and leaving my Apple TV disconnected for a while before hooking it up to my computer since it apparently has an internal baterry that keeps a charge for about 30 seconds after being disconnected. Nothing has worked.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
System configuration:
Apple TV 2nd generation running update 5.3
iTunes version 11.1 (126)
Mac OS X 10.8.5 on an Intel Core 2 DuoDid you follow the instructions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4367
Pay attention to differences in power connection depending on whether or not you have AppleTV2 or AppleTV 3.
Also some microUSB leads don't seem to work - try another if you can. Disconnect superfluous USB device/hubs too if possible.

Do you know of any kids games apps compatible with 2nd generation iPod?
Do you know of any kids games apps compatible with 2nd generation iPod? wanted to put some kids games on but they all say they are not supported by iOS 4.2.1. which is the latest ios it can be updated to. I get the message This app requires openGL ES 2.0 graphics capability. Can you tell me if there are any games I could download for him please?
If there aren't can you tell me if an ipod touch 3rd generation would be able to get alot of the current games like the lego ones and angry birds or which generation I would have to go to.
Many Thanks- These sites allow you to filter searchs for those apps compatible with 4.2.1
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
- However, some apps currently in th app require a higer iOS version. But, as I posint out in my previous reply, Apple allows yo to downlod the last compatilbe version
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
I know of no list/seach method to find those apps -
I bought the external DVD player/burner for my Macbook. I tried using it with my Dell laptop but it will not work. Is it not configured to work with anything but apple operating systems?
If you purchased the Apple USB SuperDrive, it will only work with select Apple devices. It won't work, for example, on my Late 2011 model that has a SuperDrive built-in, but it will work with an Air, Retina model, new 'drive-less' iMacs, etc.
As far as I know, though, you can only hack the drive to work with some other Apple devices, but not with Windows PCs. Which is a shame as other, less expensive DVD/CD devices will work with just about any machine.
Sorry,

2nd generation Apple TV won't stream iTunes content
I upgraded the software on my 2nd generation Apple TV about ten days ago and now it won't stream my iTunes content that is on my PC (Windows 7) upstairs. I keep getting the message that the Home Sharing feature on iTunes is not turned on, however, that is definitely not the case. I am running the latest version of iTunes and have tried restarting, restoring, and resetting Apple TV but nothing has worked. My router and cable modem are working fine and I am able to stream content from my iPad and iPhone to the Apple TV via AirPlay. For some unknown reason, the icon in iTunes that lets me decide which speakers I want to use via AirPlay (iPod vs Apple TV) is not present in iTunes. I can't figure out how to fix this problem.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
