Updated my Apple TV last night. However, it can't connect me to iTunes Match (no songs in library), not to photostream (login failed error) and also WSJ en MLB.tv are unable to connect. Internet works fine and I can view flickr photo's and watch trailers. Any solutions or similar problems?
Apple TV, iOS 5.1.1, 3rd generation
same exact issue here. anybody?
Hi Nijntje,
Are you using VPN to access the US iTunes Store?
I'm not. Just using the store of my country and plugged in the ethernet cable without further configuration. Used to work perfectly.
Hoping for someone who's solved this issue though...
I've confirmed that disconnecting the ethernet cable and using Wi-Fi instead solves the problem. Ethernet is completely broken with this updates, even though using a time capsule.
I'm having the same problems. Also, can't play Hulu plus videos. Can browse in Hulu plus, select the video, but it won't play. Works with wifi though.
Thanks Nijntje!
Switching the connection to WiFi solves the problem. Definitely a bug as I'm using the same router for connecting to WiFi and ethernet for the Apple TV.
Karen P,
Yes, Hulu is also one of the apps that's broken. Same issue as yours, can browse catalog but cannot stream any video. Completely working if connected to WiFi.
Hulu Plus broken here too on ATV 3 after the 5.1 update. Unplugged ethernet and using WiFi it works fine. Terrible bug...
Confirm - changing from Ethernet to Wi-Fi solves the problem.
This has been so frustrating. For a while only certain videos in Hulu didn't work, and now after the update everything came to a screeching halt. Unplugging the ethernet cable fixed the Hulu Plus issue, but still unable to view Photostream. Without the ethernet connection using airplay and streaming movies through iTunes has been a hit and miss operation. I'm really considering either chucking this thing out the window or selling it on ebay!
This morning I have upgrade AppleTV. After that, Youtube is not working. Say that ther is no content, my account can´t loggin in the service. What happen to youtube service? something similar happens on 23-24th January this year. Is because ios upgrade? How can play youtube videos in apple tv now?
I had same.. lost MLB. Reverted back to 5.02 solved the issue. Stability and all functionality returned. Look for Apple TV Death after update in the communities.. 8hrs ago.. shows where to grab the 5.02 download and apply w/ micro USB.
Same issue here. iPhone mirroring also does not work. I don't have a cable to restore the device like the other thread. Suggestions?
Unplugging ethernet and connecting to wifi, followed by toggling iTunes match off/on, worked for me. My AppleTV is connected thru a time capsule. Also, Apple TV 5.1 was not able to connect to photo stream via ethernet port, but was able to do so when connected over wifi. (connected to the same time capsule).
Same here Massive BUG apple please update quickly unable to sign in to photo stream using my me.com account
Any help out there.😁
I think I'm having a similar problem--I have a Time Machine plugged directly into my Comcast router, and all my devices hooked up to the Time Machine's wifi. All services *seem* to work except Photostream; totally broken for my iOS devices until I go to a completely different wifi. Surprisingly, iPhoto on the make picks up Photostream just fine.
Is Time Machine showing similar direct-connect issues as Apple TV is?
same for me - switching to WiFi got my iTunes Match working again. Ethernet is acting funny 😟
Photostream, iTunes Match, WSJ, MLB - All broken!
