    If your Apple TV fails to restore through iTunes……..


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