If Apple TV can’t access the network
Â
Check for any obstructions, and adjust the location of the base station or
Apple TV.
Â
If your network has security enabled, make sure you enter the correct password.
Â
If security is enabled on the network, temporarily disable it on the base station
and try connecting again.
Â
Check the IP address Apple TV is using. If it starts with 169.x.x.x, the router or
base station may not be configured properly. Check to see if DHCP access is
available, or configure Apple TV with a manual IP address.
Â
Apple TV cannot connect to a wireless network that contains high (extended)
ASCII or double-byte (Unicode) characters (such as Japanese, Korean, or
Chinese) in the name or password.
If your TV screen appears fuzzy or black
Â
Make sure your HDTV supports 720p or 1080p video.
Â
Make sure you’re using the correct HDMI cable and that it’s firmly connected
to Apple TV and to your TV.
Â
Make sure the input setting on your TV matches the input port the HDMI
cable is connected to. For information, see the documentation that came
with your TV.
