Apple TV keeps crashing NON-STOP!!!

Yup logging out of iCloud photo stream worked!

Same issue here with a ATV2 can hardly watch anything on Netflix because it constantly crashes, very frustrating just about to cancel my Netflix. don't think I'm logged in to Icloud but will check that

I have had this issue with various apps--namely Showtime, Netflix, and Hulu primarily. For the most part, a system restart fixes it. I know you have tried that though.

General troubleshooting that has worked for me.

• Check for updates
• Reboot system
• Unplug
• Change network
• In extreme cases I have deleted and reloaded the app

I believe it is the app developer and not AppleTV that has the issue--so when something breaks, I assume the developers haven't caught up with a system update or something. Sometimes you can get insight looking on the company's support boards, i.e. Showtime, etc.

I want to agree with you about the apps/developers - but oxmox11

above's having trouble with Netflix - which is rock solid for me - but

I'm on tv 3 (just before the current model). Wikipedia article leaves

a question in my mind about Netflix on a 2nd gen device:

"In the March 7, 2012 presentation that mainly dealt with the third generation iPad, Apple

CEO Tim Cook announced a third version of the Apple TV. The new Apple TV is externally

identical to the second generation model and includes a single-core A5 processor. It also

supports 1080p content from iTunes and Netflix".

Makes you wonder if changing your TV's resolution down to 720 might help.

*** SOLVED ****

My apple tv was crashing all of the time. We could not get through an hour show on Netflix without it crashing.

I went into Netflix on my computer (netflix.com) and I changed the resolution setting to 720p. The next time I started Netflix up ... No more crashes. Totally solved my problems with this. The picture is completely fine to watch. As someone had said it is likely crashing because of a lack of memory on the apple TV devices. I thought it was my Wifi as well and changed that first but my wifi is totally solid.

Best of luck to everyone. Hope this works as well for you.

Thank you very much. Which version/generation of tv do you have?

That is exactly what they are hoping for. They need to make it possible to upgrade the RAM in the unit without having to buy a new unit. It has the same problem on NFL app. C'mon Apple, I am losing my faith in your products and support. Steve Jobs would not stand for this.

The last remark on page 7 of these entries iterates my qualms with when software makes hardware obsolete in general. Though the world goes on, I'd rather have an option of updating without sacrificing apps or the connections. This seems the last thing on developers' minds, and perhaps quite the opposite as stated from users whose computer devices crash after updates. Much of the time under the auspices of security, when updates are decidedly sales related.

ssolved my issue. I trashed my Apple TV2 as I just got a free Telstra TV and that

actually works out of the box in HD and without crashing.

interestingly it also has a better UI

Interesting. At the price it's a no-brainer. But if you need iTunes, your

Photos, Bloomberg, the WSJ, etc. the little Australian device can't - not

sure if it can do titles in movies either.

***MY SOLUTION***

I did a soft reboot and it worked!!! Hold down the Power button and the down arrow for about 6 seconds until the Apple TV console light starts blinking. When you let go, it will reboot itself. Good Luck!

I have the exact same problem with an Apple TV2. High speed internet, hardwired connections, etc etc. Solution was to log out of Icloud and change screensaver. Anecdotally it appears that this is caused by a ram problem with the Apple TV2. Log out of Icloud, change screensaver, restart, and you should be good.

Me too. Have you figured anything out?I've tried all the fixes.

I had this issue after updating software on a v2. Unplugging and then plugging back in to restart Apple TV device fixed the issue.

i have the same exact problem with playing netflix. crashes in the middle of a movie, and takes me back to home page each time. looks like this is being neglected so for long. hopefully Apple and Netflix work together to solve this soon.
