iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.6)
FOR THE RECORD I have exactly the same problem...have tried every possible combination of logins, upper case, lower case, just does not work. Fine with GMAIL on my computer but cannot login of ATV2
I have the same problem but after I canged my password for Gmail, it works.
My original password contais some characters such as &*(, then I changed to a-z, 0-9,
It works fine,
Try changing your passowrd, it may work,
Ive tried lgging in with my Google details, my YouTube details, Ive stried 2 step verification through Google and ive tried changing my password. On another thread someone suggested creating a channel on YouTube would let me login on ATV, but ive had my YouTube account a long time and already have a channel. Still no joy with logging in on ATV, any suggestions please?
I found a solution to this issue. Create an application-specific password. I am sure there is more than one way to get there, but from your YouTube account, it's under Settings > Advanced > Authorized sites to your Google Account. This will take you to your Google account where you can create a password to enter on your Apple TV. I entered my username (left off @gmail.com) and the new password on the ATV and it worked first try.
Can't log into YouTube; YouTube won't let me search
