Troubleshooting

When you have a problem with Apple TV, there’s usually a quick and simple solution.

First, make sure:

 The audio and video cables between Apple TV and your TV are pushed in all the way.

 The power cords for Apple TV and your TV are securely connected to a working

power source.

 Your TV is turned on and switched to the correct input.

 Apple TV is connected to your network. Go to the Settings menu on Apple TV, select

Network, and see if Apple TV has an IP address.

 Your network and Internet connections are on and working properly.

If you’re still having trouble, try resetting your equipment by unplugging Apple TV,

your TV, your wireless networking equipment or AirPort Base Station, and your router

from the power outlet. Wait 30 seconds and then plug everything back in again.
