AirPlay not recognizing my password

None of this solves my problem, which is the initial problem, airplay wants my password, I know what it is but it won't accept it. It gives me some 4 digit code on the tv screen, but it won't accept that either. This is the newest Apple TV.., 4 maybe? Newest as of mar 2017. Please help. Oh, and it's only doing it when I try to connect to air play through my phone, which I've done countless times before.

Thank you for any help.

I have the same frustrating problem. I can't airplay. Asks for password. Nothing. 4-digit code appears, that does nothing either. I am now using Roku. I only use Apple TV to rent movies occassionally.

I had the same FRUSTRATING problem. I went into settings on the Apple TV and turned off conference room display and now I connect without that annoying airplay password prompt. Seems to be working fine now.

Under Home Sharing Setup:

It asks for Apple ID, which I assume is my Apple Password. _________

I hit SUBMIT

THAT TAKES ME TO HOME SHARING SETUP THAT SAYS ENTIER THE PASSWORD FOR _________

When you enter your Apple password it of course doesn't work, you are prompted to go to http://iforgot.apple.com on your computer.

I did that countless times, but nothing. It takes you on an endless loop.

NO password works for this, NONE!!!!!!! Why so many ****** passwords!!!!!

BTW, if you search for Home Sharing Setup on the Apple site you get nothing!

You'd think that Apple would even try to help consumers instead of sending them on endless loops throughout their very, very faulty system.

NOT ONE SEARCH RESULT EVEN MENTIONED HOME SHARING SETUP ANYWHERE!!!!!!!

I searched for "Password" in Itunes and got zero matches, yet there is supposed to be a password in itunes because one of the steps I had to go through mentioned was creating an itunes password.

How many passwords does Apple need? When setting up AppleTV and if you go to Sign In it takes you to another page that shows your Apple password than then it asks for your Itunes password for your Apple password!!! ***!

There are zero explanations anywhere in any Apple literature or on their site to explain any of these problems, not one! I have searched all over Apple and my searches have led to results saying they couldn't find anything pertaining to simple things like itunes, Home Sharing Setup, etc...

Hey Apple, since you have NO ONE who is capable of writing easy instructions, or even rational instructions, hire me at $500,000 a year and I will make sure your customers are happy instead of frustrated. But knowing how corporations work, you would rather lose a hundred billion dollars than to hire someone who could prevent that loss.

They want a new password ?

Me too, turned off password and code request on Apple TV settings but both keep appearing on and on, so around and around till you give up.
