Wireless has stopped working on my Apple TV. What can I do with it?

All of a sudden my 20 month old Apple Tv stopped working with Wireless. Doesn't see the network at all. Tried restting but no luck. 
I can either try and convince Apple to replace this (unlikley even with the UK's consumer protection legislation) or come up with another way to use this.
So I wondered if I connect the Apple TV via Ethernet and connect it to my Hi-Fi, could I use a remote control app on an IOS device to play iTunes files etc? I don't have a ethernet outlet near to the TV but there's one close to the Hi-Fi. To be honest the Apple TV is not used that much and I think I might get more use out of it setup as an audio streaming device. I could buy a pair of ethernet mains devices, but seems a waste to conenct a device that's not used that much.

I knew that, my question was more about the viability of using the ATV without having a TV connected and contolling it directly from an iPad to stream music.

  • I upgraded my iPad (3rd gen) to iOS 7.  When I go to iTunes and look at the summary and to the "Apps" list tab, iTunes stops working and shuts down.  What can I do?  I am using a Windows 7 machine.

    Hi thanks for the encouragement.  It's not that the severs are "swamped", iOS 7 has been successfully installed.
    I can't access the apps list in iTunes because it *****
    down.  Its pretty frustrating because many of my apps require me to manually transfer files into iTunes first to view
    them.  Not sure if the servers being swamped is an issue for me, unless they release a bug fix through another version of iTunes.
    Has anyone else had this problem?  My iPad is pretty useless unless I can access my app list in iTunes....

  • Actiontec wireless has stopped working

    The wireless on our Actiontec router has stopped working. "Radio enabled" is shown as NO. Enabling it works, but as soon as we reset security, it turns itself off.
    We've had a number of power outages, with the result that our router has gotten increasingly flakey, especially the wireless. I called tech support and he suggested doing a hard reset, which seemed to have fixed everything. However, following the mose recent power outage (yes, we get a lot of them), the hard reset procedure is no longer fixing the problem.
    Any suggestions?

    I lost my Wireless connection on Tuesday (2/28) around 10:30am. Ethernet connection is working fine. I called tech support and after about an hour of him working on my system he came to the conclusion that the router needed replaced. I received my new router Thursday afternoon (3/1) Installed the router per the instructions. Still no wireless connection. Ethernet is working fine but no wireless on my 2 laptops or my IPad. I called tech support again this afternoon 3/2 and after about 45 minutes of the tech taking over my computer he comes to the conclusion that the router need replaced. So Router number 3 is on the way. I will update the forum once the new router arrives.

  • My music software has stopped working since I installed ios7,what to do?

    When i downloaded the ios7 some of my music has stopped working and come up with a red square and a circle around it, I've tried the suggestions but none of them have worked so far any advice??

    Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

I have tried to uninstall and re install still get same message. Don't know why or what to do? Also tried to set up my dads Ipod Nano on his computer and it wont accept the Australian area code? ????Help Please going insane

    Does iTunes not see the phone?
    If not, make sure you're running the current version of iTunes.
    If you are running the current version and it still doesn't recognize it, see this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    As for iPhoto, you will have to purchase a newer version. It's not a free upgrade. Or, you can use Image Capture, which is built into OS X, to import the photos.

  • I tunes trys to sync and comes up with error message I tunes has stopped working, I tunes trys to sync and comes up with error message I tunes has stopped working

    Hi guys, Please help
    Just upgraded computer to Windows 7.  Installed latest version of ITunes. It installed and uploaded all my items in my library.
    Connected IPad2 and updated latest version.  However whenever it trys to sync my contents either to my IPad, my wifes IPad or my new Iphone4S, it simply comes up with error message.  I TUNES has stopped working.  Windows is checking for a solution to the problem... Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is found.  Urggh,  can anyone help

    This is similar to my dilemma I just posted:
    itunes has stopped working error msg after software updates?                                                                                        50 minutes ago                       
    I have removed Bonjour as well.
    I've had this happen other times when I've updated iTunes software on other systems too, to the extent that now I'm reluctant to ever Accept when it suggests I do so.  But I went ahead this time and sure enough I think I'll have to do a total reinstall.
    LOL, I don't think Windows has EVER found a solution to ANY system problem I've had which makes it mildly amusing when it acts like it's helping!

  • IMessage has randomly stopped working on my Macbook Pro, what can I do?

    My iMessage on my macbook pro has stopped working. I can log in just fine and I have logged out and back in but still cannot send or receive messages. It worked just fine at my house and last year at college but for whatever reason it has stopped working now. What can I do to fix this?
    I keep everything up to date and currently have no updates ready at this time.
    I also cannot currently FaceTime from my computer either, but both of these work just fine on my iPhone 5 which is connected to the same wifi.

    Right now the best thing to do is be patient. The last six days many people have been reporting problems with FaceTime. The source of the problems remains unknown.

  • Wireless has stopped working on my old G3

    I've had my ibook, with the same airport card, for 5 years. For the past couple months my wireless signal has been dropping out. I know it isn't the airport express I use b/c my imac has no problem with the wireless signal. I kind of figured that the antenna was being pinched in the hinge, as when I moved the screen back and forth I would get my signal back. This worked pretty well, as long as I held the screen at a certain angle.
    Tonight it has dropped out altogether. It just died. I checked my system profile and my ibook is recognizing the airport card, but I don't get a signal at all, no matter how much I open/close/reboot etc.
    So I am wondering what my options are. Of course my applecare is long gone. I already sunk $200 into this ibook almost exactly a year ago for a new harddrive, and I figured I would try to use it as long as I could. How much is it to get the antenna problem fixed? Does it make sense to try to do that, or to somehow find money for maybe a macbook (totally out of my budget right now). I just need the ibook for wireless internet/email so spending $1000 to get something new for that seems silly when this computer is still basically working great (other than the wireless).

    Jon Spaulding of Small Dog Electronics writes about fixing the AirPort antenna here:
    http://www.smalldog.com/newsarchive/techtails_display.php?id=218
    The only way to tell for certain how much it would cost is to call and ask.

  • Wireless has stopped working on 6-month-old G770

    I have a G770 running Windows 7 Home Premium that is about 6 months old. About a month ago, the wireless network access cut out suddenly. I can still connect to the network with an Ethernet cable, but I have no wireless access. When I remove the Ethernet cable, the wireless network icon is displayed with a red X through it, and I receive the error "Not Connected - No Connections are Available."
    The wireless/Bluetooth switch on the front of the machine is set to "on," and the wireless network card is turned on in the Wireless Device Settings.
    I have tried updating the drivers for the Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter, but I am told my drivers are up-to-date.
    I've also disabled and then re-enabled the Atheros AR9285, and uninstalled and re-installed the drivers, but I still have no wireless access.
    Do I need to purchase a new wireless network adapter? If so, where can I do so? I've read that the BIOS settings won't allow me to install a non-Lenovo wireless network adapter, but I don't have the option of purchasing an Atheros AR9285 on the Lenovo site.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    Gin,
    Yeh, it's starting to sound like a hardware problem.  There were a few threads around here that said that the antenna connectors were loose.  You could check that. You could make sure that the screw is holding the card in place.  Maybe clean the card contacts with a pencil eraser.  
    You still have warranty left, right?  
    If you want to take the cover off and look at it, here's your Hardware Maintenance Manual .  Page 41 shows the card.

  • My CS4 Licensing has stopped working, Error 150:30 and I can't reinstall as my disc is currently unaccessible.

    I can't gain access to my install discs and I have tried all the other suggestions for fixing this problem, so I'm thinking reinstallation is the only way.
    I have access to my serial number but I can't find anywhere that offers a download of CS4 as it's a bit older.

  • Iphone 6 plus stopped working after restoring was interrupted, what can i do?

    Here's my situation .. recently got the iPhone 6 plus 128GB, an unfortunately it fell out of hand and landed on it's back (with a strong case on), it got no dents or anything.
    i picked it up and it was off, i tried to turn it on, it didn't turn on.
    i connected it to iTunes and it requested me to restore it, after a few minutes a message saying restore error, I do not remember what it said exactly.
    now my iPhone 6 plus is not working and iTunes is not recognizing it!
    a friend told me that it got "Bricked", i hope it didn't. please help me.

    'Allo Salman,
    It sounds like you are unable to complete a restore of your device due to an error you are getting in iTunes when you try. I would start with the troubleshooting steps in the following article to help you out:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes
    If you are getting a specific error number, you may be able to find more specific troubleshooting in the following article:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors
    If you're not getting error number, can you elaborate on the error you are receiving?
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Using Adobe Captivate 7 and keep getting Adobe Captivate has stopped working...

    I am new to Using Adobe Captivate 7 and keep getting Adobe Captivate has stopped working on Slide 7.  What can I try?

    Will you be delivering this content from an LMS?  If so, then the LMS should handle the menu.  Break your project into separate modules and use the Multi-SCORM Packager to create a bundled set.
    If you are not using an LMS, but ARE serving content from a web server, then YES you could create a menu module that you use to launch the other modules.
    If you are intending to serve this content from a LAN or CD ROM, then you could create a normal HTML web page with hyperlinks to launch individual modules.

  • My iPhone has stopped working all I have is a screen with the apple logo on it

    My iPhone has stopped working. All I have is a black screen with the apple logo displayed.  The phone does not respond when I press the buttons and switches,

    Any thing happen if you try to connect to iTunes?
    One thought - do not charge it and let the current charge fade out - then when you charge it back from scratch it should reboot into some working mode
    Another - if you do not want to wait - bring it to a store
