Yes same issue here too, spoken to Apple Support in Ireland, said we have to wait for a fix, its been three weeks now since the restore, everything works fine just won't activate/airplay - very frustrating.
Still no update from Apple. This simple fix (workaround) worked for me though.
1. install 3utools on your windows pc
2. Connect your TV to the power and connect it to the USB on your pc
3. Start 3utools and if the pc has found the Apple TV..
4. click “more”
5. it will open a page where you have to search for “Batch activation” and click there
6. then click “all” and start
Should work after that.
These solutions don't work for me, because when I plugin my Apple TV with micro USB, computer don't see it... When Apple plan to publish an update? Already one month past and your hardware don't work!!!
Please try using another USB cable.
There are two types of USB cables: cables that can only be charged and cables that can be charged and transferred data.
If you use a cable that supports data transfer, you can find your Apple TV in your pc.
This solution just work out for me via Mac and Apple Configurator 2 app! https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253335016?page=3
Same problem here, contacted apple support but they don't seem to be aware of the issue.
More and more reports emerging online, supposedly a problem on apples server side.
So, we need to wait them. It's better to know, then thinking that your Apple TV broken.
Same issues, airplay on apple tv is not visible for any device after reset, struggle for than a week already! @Apple, please help!
Yes, I've got the same issue. Very frustrating. Let's hope Apple fix it soon
Any news about the server?
Reg. cable - try another one, I had 5 cables and only 1 worked, it should be not just charging cable but with usb interface
This worked for me. Thank you so much.
