What are you referring to when you say 'between iTunes and apple' ? An iTunes account is the same as an Apple ID, they are just different ways of referring to an account - the account should work on that website, on a computer's iTunes, iOS device, Apple TV.


The id and password works ok on that site, and you are entering both the id and password on the Apple TV, you aren't still logged in with a previous password ?

What is the exact text of the message that you are getting ? Apple ID and iTunes account are just different ways of referring to an account. Can you log into the account on your computer's iTunes (Account drop-down menu) ?


I meant what are you entering i.e. are you entering both the id and password (i.e. you aren't currently logged in), or is the id already showing (i.e. you already logged in) and are just being prompted to enter the account's password

I am asking about the difference between apple and itunes, because when I tried to use my apple ID and password (the one I am using here) in my TV, it didn'twork, I got a popup message that says that I need to create an itunes store account.


King-Pinguin, I didn'tunderstand what You meant by "you aren't still logged in with a previous password ?"

I only have one password with Appleandit doesn't work with my apple TV

but thank you for trying to help me. I feel like I am just truning around
