Q: apple tv does not access iTunes - 4/17/2014

Same deal Apple TV Gen 1, all other Apple things fine and running latest software. Waiting on response from itunes store about rentals that got lost in the problem we're all experiencing.

Same problem here in Fulda/Germany: Not possible to rent movies or buying music. Also the menu is very slow.

Same in Germany, Hamburg. 1st gen ATV. Additionally my 2nd gen ATV is updating for hours and hours. It's really annoying.

Hi

I am experiencing this problem as well with a 1st Gen silver Atv. It is accessing the Internet and you tube, but won't access movies, music or tv.  I have reset, signed in and out of iTunes and now just done a factory reset, all to no avail.

Have Apple stopped supporting the 1st Gen?  Has worked fine up until now!

Not sure if it will help or not, but everyone who comes in here should click on the "I have this question too" link beside the giant REPLY on the first post that started this thread. Maybe more people saying they have the same question will help.

Reporting in from India. I have the 1st generation unit and have just burnt the evening before hitting this thread. I just clicked the I have this question too link. Apple please wake up and set this right

Yesterday same happened to me in the Canary Islands, Spain. No more Itunes content on my ATV 1 gen and this after 6 years. I am very dissapointed about this, I was really in the mood to rent a movie this weekend. I reckon this could be a joke of some programmer or something but I sincerly think this is not funny. In case Apple let us down on this issue I am surely not going to buy any update ATV but I will definitely loose my faith in Apple´s products which is very sad really...

Identical issue - 1st Generation ATV. Melbourne, Australua.

Not jailbreaked. Updated regularly. Stopped accessing iTunes April 18th but connects to YouTube, diagnostics tell me it's all working fine.

SAME HERE IN BOSTON!!! ... Can't understand why I love Apple products so much if I always end up having problems with each one of them!!!  So what's next??? ... Is it gonna be addressed at all!!!

having the same problem in Philadelphia with 1st Gen ATV. C'mon Apple.

Same here. I got nothin!!

ATV 1st gen

Exact same problem and timing in Canberra, Australia.

Same problem in Spain: my Apple TV worked more than fine a few days ago.

All of a sudden, it is now running very slowly and cannot access iTunes Store while it can access the internet (ie YouTube).

Really annoying!!! It is like flashing back 5 years ago.

I wish Netflix was available in  Europe.

same problem here, Montreal, Canada

no itunes anymore on my ATV 1st gen

apple have decide to remove the access or what ?

Same problem here in West Sussex.  Seriously fed up!
