Hi ET,

I’ll give that a shot.  I have pulled the power chord, but it didn’t change 
anything.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi all,

I just wanted to write that the problems I was having with our Apple TV were 
finally resolved.  I'm guessing that Simon was right, that the IP or DNS 
somehow got changed when our ISP made upgrades to our internet service.  Once I 
power cycled it, when it came back up, everything was working.

RE: Apple TV weirdness

2016-03-04 Thread Simon Fogarty 
Under general and settings if I remember orrectly, there is a network option, 
go into that and then you should be able to view the network addressing 

I'm just wondering if your DNS ip addresses might have been miss set and your 
not getting any traffic through your ISP to the outside world.

I haven't tried to view the IP and DNS settings.  How do you do that?

I think the wireless signal is OK.  It's worked well up until the other night, 
and other devices have no problem connecting wirelessly in that same room.

Thanks for the suggestion, Simon.

RE: Apple TV weirdness

2016-03-04 Thread Simon Fogarty 
Just a quirey 

Can you view the ip and dns settings of your apple tv and see if its actually 
picking up the correct addressing 

Also, would it be worthwhile taking the apple tv to a location closer to the 
wifi device or even better connecting it via cable to your network to see if 
it's just a limited signal in the location it's currently in.

Ugh!  That must have been frustrating!  Sadly, I wish it were that simple for 
me.  :)  Prior to this past couple of days, I've streamed a lot of content from 
my Mac through my Apple TV, so know that the computer has to be open with 
iTunes on.  Glad you figured it out though. :)

Re: Apple TV weirdness

2016-03-04 Thread Sarai Bucciarelli 
Hi:
I had this same issue, kind of. I had to make sure both computer, and apple tv 
were on the same network. I went to itunes, file, home sharing, to make sure 
the correct apple id was bing used. I put the same ID info in computers under 
the Apple TV. Here is the part I was screwing up.  I didn’t have my laptop 
opened, and itunes opened when I was trying to use home share.

Hi Kayaker,

It's on a different floor from our wireless router, so hard-wiring, while not 
impossible, wouldn't be easy.  thanks for the power cycling suggestion, though. 
 I was thinking I would give that a go and see what happens.
Cheers,
Donna

Hi,

It sounds as if your Apple TV is off your network. Can you see it from either 
an iOS device’s airplay option or from the airplay remote speakers option in 
iTunes? I would suggest power cycling the Apple TV by just yanking the power 
cord from the back and waiting a few seconds before reconnecting. Is hardwiring 
it with an ethernet cable an option?

Best,
—K
Faith doesn’t give you the answers, it merely stops you from asking the

Yeah, I'm kind of wondering if our Apple TV has bitten the dust.  When I later 
tried to access Netflix, VO said that Netflix was unavailable.  Seems like 
something's messed up with the WIFI on the Apple TV.

homesharing on and off on my computer, and when that did nothing, I decided 
to try re-initializing it on my Apple TV.  Now, my Apple TV won't take my

Has anyone encountered this?  Anyone know a solution?
