1. check that the HDMI cable is placed at both ends.

2. try to disconnect the cable and reconnect.

3. try another HDMI cable.

4. make sure that your TV supports 720 p (Apple TV 2 only)

5. try the Apple TV with another TV

  • Apple TV remote turns on randomly 4th Gen Apple TV

    Hi guys,.

    I have a 4th gen Apple TV for Christmas at work. It's pretty convenient, but it's a very weird thing: the remote control sends signals randomly when nobody is in contact with it, in fact, nobody is there, everyone is metres from the remote control. Since Apple TV is connected to my TV which is capable of HDMI-CEC, it also turns on the TV. Sometimes without any model, when we sit in the corner opposite of the same room, or at random times of the day or even at night. Sometimes I go out in the middle of the night to check on our little girl and I see that the TV is on. Apple TV will switch to standby after a certain time, but since it does not send SIGNAL to the TV via CEC, the TV stays on. Sometimes I stop the movie I'm watching something and when I come back, film runs and minutes. This causes me a real headache, not to mention that it also adds the power bills, especially when we leave for a weekend and I come home that the TV is on...

    Did any of you ever heard, or it's a faulty remote with a contact problem around the buttons that need to be replaced? If the first case, how can I fix this, if the latter, will change any Apple retailer for me? There is no Apple store dedicated to Christchurch, New Zealand. My employer has ordered hundreds of Apple TV Online.

    Thank you

    I don't have to assume that someone else uses one of the old silver remotes close to Apple TV or if someone could play a joke on you with a distance more or the Apple remote on their phone app.

    There was a small number of reports related to the buttons on the remote apparently stick and sending several times the same command, but I don't think I've seen all the reports to work intermittently on his own.

    I've seen reports where network activity has awoken from previous models, but never where this kind of activity began a movie plays when he suspended.

    I think that a good start in the resolution of what is going on here is to know if these red orders arrive via bluetooth, IR, or wifi, you could start by covering the unit to the rule (or in) re.

  • 4th gen Apple tv doesn't remember connection

    I bought a 4th gen Apple tv to replace my 2nd generation it about 3 months ago. My girlfriend and I have a id iTunes and one account and both are set up on the new Apple TV. On the older, we could switch between his ID and mine, based on content, we wanted to see (each of buy us our TV shows or movies). With the 4th gen ATV, it requires the password whenever we change my account to hers, and vice versa. How can I configure the ATV to remember (not required) our passwords each time we have ID?

    Maybe it's not possible, see https://help.apple.com/appletv/#/atvb0753b37d. Family sharing might work, but their 'parent' allows you to pay for everything.

  • 4th gen Apple TV cannot pair with iphone remote app

    Click on 'Add Apple TV' selected on TV, then was invited to enter the 4 numbers matching password shown on television. However the TV shows 4 blocks of gray rectangle instead of 4 digits.

    I also checked that the apple TV and iphone are on the last OS update. What gives? This app is supposed to work with 4th gen now.

    Yes, it works. This looks like some weird glitch. Using the new application ATV 4 remote control (black), or the older version, now called iTunes remotely? Try restarting the ATV using the settings > system > restart. Then try to pair it again.

  • Not able to remove an IR distance 4th gen Apple TV

    When I go into settings > remote and devices I don't see any other than the original remote control Bluetooth Apple TV remote.

    I have also reset the Apple TV, but it still recognizes my TV remote. I need to remove this remote control buttons as other features on the TV.

    I found this:

    • On Apple TV (4th generation), go to settings > remote controls and devices and select the remote control you want to change.

    On the following URL:

    Use a third-party remote with Apple TV - Apple Support

    However, no chance of finding the IR distance on the list.

    Thank you!

    Salvation of DEMONSTRATION,

    I think that you are having a feature that I find personally useful. ATV does not meet your TV remote IR commands. Instead, your TV is actually the ATV control using the HDMI-CEC function. This allows the TV remote to control any attached devices, such as DVR and DVD players. I find that mine is sending the navigation arrows, the enter key and the button return to ATV. He made me go through the menus and control playback without reaching the remote Siri.  Oddly, the play/pause buttons do not affect playback, except in the YouTube app. There seems to be no way to stop the ATV to accept these orders. Power off "ControlTVs receivers abd" not to do so. Your only option is to disable HDMI-CEC on your TV. Note that there are a lot of different names, just dig the TV menus. But if you try it, you will find it. Although there are a few orders of TV, you must avoid because they also affect the ATV, I like it.

    And by the way, for those who want to exploit this feature, ATV seems to ignore orders unless you start with a few movements on the home screen using theSiri distance. Then, confirm that the TV arrows work. Then he will continue to work. The TV key is rhe same as a click on the touchpad, so it works like play/pause.

  • Can I sync my iPad 2 and my iPad using a 4th gen Apple ID

    I have an iPad 2 years and just got an iPad 4th generation as a gift. Can I synchronize both using my an Apple ID via iTunes and backup iCloud and have different content on each or both must be contained clones of each other?

    You can have different content. I suggest that you give each iPad a different name, just to make it easier to follow. On the ipad in the settings, itunes and app store, you can explore the automatic download settings, decide what you do and don't want a device. For example, if you have apps set to download automatically, if you buy a game on one, it will download on the other. may or may not be what you want.

    When you configure the new ipad, choose "set up as new" and then choose what you want on it. Or if you have some applications that you want to remain the same on both devices... for example a game you do not want to lose the progress you might save the old iPad, then configure a new backup of the old, then delete the apps you want.

    When I went to an ipad iPod I restored my new iPad from my iPod backup, then adapted to each one, and I'm able to maintain different content on each device.

  • 4th gen Apple TVRemoteWon can't hold a charge

    Recently my ATV 4 distance began to unload completely in just a few days, rather than the promised several weeks and as he recently are someone else has this problem?

    I called Apple support and they sent me a new replacement. It works very well in all its forms, but also will not hold a charge more for about a week or two. I found it completely discharged tonight, such that it wouldn't work at all, even if I've completely charged about two weeks ago.

    It is now clear that this should not be the fault of the remote, but maybe some correlation between this one and the Apple TV itself. He would have to do with a Bluetooth problem? In the menu of the ATV, I saw that it had detected the Bluetooth entry to my TV, but that it was not connected. It is trying to connect and wasting energy? I do not have direct control over the TV Bluetooth, but it controls via the Apple TV 4 using the HDMI-CEC capabilities that work well.

    I had 4 ATV for nearly a year. It has always worked well, and this remote discharge problem only started a few weeks ago. I brought no changes to system before this problem appeared.

    Any ideas on why the two remotes in a row see this problem in my system?

    Have to introduce any other electrical devices in the room. Is there anyone in your household who might be using the remote control for the games.
