Won't set date/time - still....
I have a second generation Apple TV. I have never had a problem with it. Until today.
I've read through a.l the forums and looked through the net.
I just came in today and the only icons on the screen were computer and settings.
Have tried to restart, reset, and powered everything off and reset my router.
I've check the IP address and it is correct.
I tried the solution of pressing the remote menu button and the back arrow to get the broken chain - - it gave me the broken chain and I pushed the forward button and got the connected chain. - no difference.
If I try to restart or reset it gets to the activation screen and just spins and spins, then goes to set date and time and spins and spins. It will never go anywhere (left it while we went to Wal-Mart. If you hit menu on the remote it "skips" it. You can't troubleshoot or anything because it tells you that it cannot connect to the internet, or the itunes store, or to your computer, until you have set date and time.
I would appreciate any fixes anyone has for this. I have set up a $19.00 phone call with Apple for tomorrow night at 7 pm. Would love to have it fixed before I have to call them.
Thanks in advance.
