Apr 20, 2014 3:32 PM in response to IrvBdby proximus,Adding another user with ATV1 problems.
I can accept and understand when technical issues arise. What is not acceptable is SILENCE from Apple. Just publically acknowledge the problem already!!!!

Apr 20, 2014 3:35 PM in response to pavel_tsybulinby Topper99,Panel, you're a genius. That works perfectly. I can play shared content now without stutters.
It's time I curbed my iTunes addiction anyway!

You won't hear from them here. Almost all of us are users. You will need to contact them by some other means.

Apr 20, 2014 3:46 PM in response to IrvBdby addyc1986,I had this issue tonight myself, were my apple tv 3rd gen wouldnt connect to my itunes library running on my laptop. Also my idevices wouldnt home share from the same library.
To resolve this i had to go into the properties of the network interface which was connected to my network and uncheck "IPV6"
Once this was done, all was operating as normal, apple tv was sharing the itunes library and idevices were sharing the itunes library too.

Thanks also. Very helpful.
Hadn't thought of that.

Apr 20, 2014 4:11 PM in response to IrvBdby Not I.T. Savvy,I am yet another in the growing list whose ATV is having issues and wasted hours trying to work out what the problem was - with no I.T knowledge. Best thing I did was google it and found this discussion which I've been monitoring for a few days now. No doubt many of us also have iPhones, iPads etc and this silence from Apple does not sit well.

Apr 20, 2014 4:22 PM in response to Not I.T. Savvyby noelfromact,Re: Apple Silence
Well said.
I'm ex IT and so understand something of what the problem might be, but the non response so far engenders distrust.

Apr 20, 2014 4:39 PM in response to IrvBdby mtnbimmer,Just another ATV user who is having the same issues. I didn't find the thread until today so I am late to the party but glad to find out that this is a common issue. While I can live without iTunes store access via my ATV, the poor streaming of my personal content is very annoying. Like most everyone else, I will be in a holding pattern until someone much more computer smart than I can come up with a solution. Hope it is soon!

Apr 20, 2014 5:13 PM in response to IrvBdby proximus,Well, my Roku is working fine with Amazon VOD. Guess who just got my money. Apple SAY SOMETHING!!! ( I know there will be no response in the forum, but a public acknowledgement is required at this point).

Apr 20, 2014 5:23 PM in response to IrvBdby Mark Hubert,Apple doesn't post on these discussions and many times it seems they don't read.... 12K comments and growing.
Maybe they've made the business decision to no longer care about the 1st Gen. That would be too bad as I've got Netflix and Amazon embedded in my TV....
It seems to me, given the newer AppleTVs low price, Apple's business model is renting and selling content. I'm sure it's pretty cheap for Apple to throw some software engineering at putting out a fix. So?!!!
I couldn't find a specific hashtag regarding the issue so I tweated the following... Maybe making noise outside of the Apple Discussion ghetto will help.
My Tweat:
#AppleTV1stGen. Love it, worked great. If #Apple doesn't fix connection to #AppleStore, they've lost my business. I'll Netflix w/SmartTV
