Apple Tv update 3rd generation

How can I update my 3rd generation of apple tv from the pc (with the ipsw file)?

My ipad because air & iphone 6 + disappear as an option of mirroring (ios 9.x)

When I try to update my Apple tv;

This message always (the update has failed.)!

Welcome to the Apple community.

You don't need an ispw file.

  1. Remove all cables from the Apple TV. (if you have not you won't see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
  2. Connect the USB micro cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
  3. Plug power supply (only for the Apple TV 3)
  4. Open iTunes.
  5. Select your Apple TV in the devices list, and then click on restore.

(You already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital devices)

If your Apple TV fails to restore via iTunes...

  • Check that you have properly followed the instructions for your model of Apple TV.
  • If this is not the case, already, try using a powered USB port.
  • Repeat the process, but this time try to connect the cable while iTunes is closed.
  • Repeat the process with another cable.
  • Try to restore the Apple TV on another computer at another location.

  • Apple iPod touch (3rd generation), iTunes hangs everything by making a backup

    Original title: Apple iPod touch (3rd generation)

    Try to install the iPod.

    I have Windows Vista loaded on. I also tend titanium security and Internet Explorer 8 or 9 charge on as well. iTunes gets to step 2 of 6 in backup, and then freezes. I have the iPod connected to the computer and turned on when I do that.  I wonder if there is a problem of firewall IE, a Trend security firewall problem (I was on the site of trend but couldn't work out how to turn off the firewall - when it exists). Would it be a problem I use a mobile internet device I plug into a USB port?  I read that iTunes needs to port 80 or port 443, and I have no idea what I have with a mobile internet connection, which is a connection of the port numbers Vodaphone. (I travel a lot). Does anyone know what I need to do to complete the installation? I have not yet set up an account with Apple's iTunes or the legends of hearing impaired which is part of the installation.  I really want to restore the ipod to factory settings and reinstall due to do not do these two things, but I can't even do that when I click on "Restore" and ask that 'the parameters that it will NOT be saved' (as I want to go back) but once again just iTunes freezes.  Can someone help this Granny for the iPod facing up and running please with a good connection to iTunes and an active account? Thank you. Laptop.

    Hello

    Test the issue in a clean boot State, and check if the problem is related to a software conflict of third.

    Note: Follow step 7 to your computer as usual, and also make sure that you do not disable iTunes while putting your computer in a clean boot state.

    If the problem persists, I recommend that ask you this question in the following forum. They must be aware of current issues with this unit.

  • Is there a way for Netflix to Macbook Apple TV airplay (3rd generation)

    Hello.

    I just got an apple TV (3rd generation) and I have a Macbook pro 15 2012 model late retina. The Netflix on Apple TV app works fine for me, but her thing is that my parents or my girlfriend need of subtitles in the language which is not offered by netflix, so I need to add subtitles external source and I can do that on the Macbook. However, Netflix doesn't let me airplay Macbook from Apple tv, which gives me a display error, and I suggest that I make sure that I am not not using airplay to fix. Is there a way to get around this restriction?

    Hello. I think it's a restriction built into the Netflix app so it is probably pretty hard to beat. You could try mirroring, that might work. Incidentally, when you use the basic AirPlay, ATV will flow the video directly from the server, so your subtitles does not appear anyway.

  • Apple TV Remote 3rd generation pairing

    We have just received new internet, and I went to put in the new network outside of apple TV. When I click on the remote control the Apple TV blinks 3 times (white light) and I can't move the cursor. I tried to restart my Apple TV and using my remote of my phone app, but I think that the network is not connected to the Apple TV is not to answer. Help?

    Thank you

    The three lights tells the ATV is ignorant of the remote control.  To fix this simply cancel the twinning of the remote control:

    Pair or cancel the twinning of the Apple Remote with Apple TV (3rd generation or earlier)-Apple Support

    Of course, you must use the second method mentioned since you can't navigate through the menus.

    < personal information under the direction of the host >

    All sounds, or simply notification and sounds apps (for example do music and videos app still have sound)? If notifications and apps you have notifications on mute: on the iPad side switch - Apple Support ? If the sounds in all applications which have tried for example soft-reset/reboot of the iPad, insert/remove the headphones?
