Unable to sign in to Apple TV- I followed instructions and wasted an hour of my life i will never get back. Apple TV needs fixing
Apple TV (3rd generation)
What exactly do you mean by "sign into AppleTV"? Can you provide a little mroe detail?
Yes- i have tried to turn on home sharing to retrieve the stuff i purchased and the message i get is "unable to sign in AppleTV cant connect to the server right now please try again later.
Still not entirely clear what you are attempting. To access iTunes purchased content does not require that Home Sharing be activated. Assuming you have issues connecting to ituens:

I have an internet connection and have restarted and reset the device via my MacBook per instructions. i also have home sharing turned on through itunes but am unsure of your meaning on this one, can you elaborate?. I do appeciate the help James but i am seriously thinking of just giving up the ghost and just playing via airplay. Apple make some really good products but this is just frigging frustraing.
If the conent you are trying access was purchased via iTunes ("music, movies, TV shows, etc.), you do not need Home Sharing to access it. You only need to sign into iTunes. It will then be available on the AppleTV directly for streaming.
Have you restarted the router?
unable to sign in - followed instructions and wasted an hour of my life i will never get back. Apple tv needs fixing- pathetic.
