Apple TV photostream "unable to sign in"??

I am on a windows 7 machine and just fixed the problem by doing this:

-update iCloud control panel from v1.1 to v2.0 (2.0 was released 9/12/12)

-sign in again after reboot, you will be asked to accept terms and conditions

-go login to photostream on your apple TV

in other words, updating the iCloud control panel triggered the new T&Cs.

good luck.

David,

Someone further on in this forum suggested that all you have to do is update to the most recent version of the iCloud control panel. See: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4348939?answerId=19869646022#19869646022

It's just a matter of getting one of your devices to prompt you with the updated terms of service. See my earlier link: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4369968?answerId=19855327022#19855327022&ac_cid=sa123456#19855327 for more ideas on workarounds.

Been there, done that, accepted the new t&c's but still no luck. Thanks anyway and surely Apple will come up with a fix...or am I dreaming?

Upgrade to icloud control panel 2.0 , still no luck!

Have to live without photostream, just use airply

Will wait for another 1-2 weeks before apple fix this bug, otherwise will restore to the previous version

Man..No one, I mean no one had the fix.....I have been clicking my mouse for days!!!!!!!

I did"nt know about the new Icloud control panel 2.0...It worked for me.

Lots and Lots of THANKS................................

I'm joining the line of people with this problem. I don't think it's a case of accepting the updated terms of service. I've also contacted Apple. They escalated my case.

Writing more about it all here.

I´m trying both wired and wireless connections. Nothing is working.

Updating the iCloud Control Panel didn't work for me. I think this may have been because I updated the iCloud Control Panel before updating my Apple TV.

Once I'd upgraded the Control Panel, no amount of uninstalling and reinstalling seemed to prompt me to accept new Terms of Service.

It seems I was only saved by the fact I had an iPhone that hadn't been updated to IOS6. It was this that finally prompted me with the new Terms of Service.

I don't think this is possible, sadly.

I reset my AppleTV to factory settings, but as part of this it downloads the latest update!

You can definately downgrade with a micro-USB cable.

how can i do that?

You can find old software images here.

Try the above link it solved my problem by changing the country form store to another one and reverted back to the original country, go to the iCloud it will show the TOS agree and viola it worked on photo stream, the only thing apple must do the fix not the community which we list hours and days effort to fix this.

You can't do this if you subscribe to iTunes Match.

Will I donot have iTunes match to try, but for my case and forest22 and others it did the trick, this should be solved by apple and not community users, we are feeding back what we tried

It can work for you or not but in my case it worked.

Fixed mine :-)

Using my iPhone, I went to settings, iCloud and was prompted to agree to the new terms, no need to change countries as some suggest, my Apple TV 3 photostream now works.
