Apple TV photostream "unable to sign in"??

I tried restoring but atv was unable to complete the restore process.

Hmmm..I haD no issues, almost everything came back except the option to have your slideshow pics play for longer than two seconds which is aggravating me. I had it set for 10 secs before but it seems that option is gone. lso the option to do random or or not. I spoke with them on the phone and did a full restore. They did not charge me because this is there issue not ours. I would go to the tech support site and fill it out for them to call you.

even after restoring, the photstream didnot work very irritating problem and also you loose your location which leads you to only computer and setting really a very disappointing update, what is going on !

so,i have the same problem that you all have,i tried everything,wifi on,wifi off,ethernet in,ethernet out,icloud panel from pc reinstalled,changing primary id with me.com id,reset,restore...and everything i have read here from other guys,nothing,i still have the same problem,unable to sign in,and everything is working so bad after i made the update to 5.1.hey apple????are you sleeping?????why do you don't care about us?i just bought the atv and now i'm thinking to sell it because it's not working properly!now it's a piece of plastic and i'm very nervous everyday because i'm reading forums and trying to fix that you let go.

Nothing is worked did like you before all combinations very stupid from apple we look so fool accepting this sh**. We need a fix as soon as possible and didnot leave us with try and error method. Unsatisfid client

How did it work for you !

On device,in apple id (Store), change country, save. Then change back,save. Go to settings, icloud, change of terms should pop up.

Can't do this if you have an active iTunes Match account!!! ARGGGGGGG!

I am having the same problem and nothing has worked. Apple, please help us out here!!

I rang Apple and I am sending my Apple TV back to be looked at😉

I think it's a software problem

or hardware

We shall see

Hi Clay -

I've tried many of the suggestions here, but the only thing that seemed to do the trick has been to download the iCloud control panel on my work PC and accept the new TOS through that. See my other post here for more information:

Hi Joshua,

I already have the iCloud control panel downloaded and do not know how to get rid of it so that I can download again. Any ideas?

I had exactly this problem and it appears the only (unsatisfactory) solution is as follows:-

You have to upgrade another IOS device to IOS6. (This ruled out my iPad V1 which can't be upgraded to IOS6). Fortunately I have an iPhone4 which like it or not, had to be upgraded to IOS6 to get Photo Stream to work with the new Apple TV update.

After updating the iPhone to IOS6 I was prompted to accept the new iCloud Terms of Service on the iPhone. After doing this, I was able to sign in to Photo Stream on the Apple TV.

Without upgrading to IOS6, it seems you're never prompted to accept the new Terms of Service.

It may be possible to get the Terms of Service to appear when installing the iCloud Control Panel, but having already installed this, I couldn't get them to appear, even by uninstalling and reinstalling.

This whole saga appears to be an oversight by Apple with their Apple TV update.

Steve, you seem to be right as other firmware earlier than ios6 want work, but the thing why apple didnot warn people about that, the iCloud client software didnot work I tried that and nothing appeared from the TOS aggreament, but from discussion some users could get connected to photostream so this is a bit strange.

Is there is any way to revert back to the older Appletv update earlier to 5.1.
