You could try the online version of this article requires a network connection. Please post comments either in English, Dutch or German. Google assumes you wrote in Spanish, the translation:. Please look at the previously posted comments concerning this issue.
Also check if the harddisk is fully operational — it might get stuck when part of the harddrive is defective. Your fix worked.. Good to hear that Grahame! Try doing the process all over again, including downloading and making a new USB stick. Maybe something got screwed up with the download or the creation of the USB stick?
Hello, I have downloaded the v2 version and fixed the problem.. Btw thank you for your reply…. OMG it worked, with the 2. However, I followed the instructions above and it worked first time like a dream. Thank you very much. Thanks Adam for taking the effort to post a nice feedback! Glad to hear it worked for you too! Thanks for taking the time to leave a cool feedback!
Glad the article helped you! I am likely going to come off a s real dumb ass here but please be patient as i am new to all this stuff. I have an apple tv 1 and it has been jail broke and crystalbuntu and openelec installed. However, it is not working right so I am trying to factory reset it but it is set up as a linux based program. I need to make changes to the programming lines of code to allow me to do this.
The apple tv wants me to enter an openelec login but there is no keyboard. Is there any way to set up a keyboard wirelessly to enter the data. Is there a zip file that has the changes in it already for a linux based system? We all are, or have been, noobs at some point.
When restoring your 1st generation AppleTV as described above, it should not ask for a OpenElec password. So that indicates that something is going wrong. Now, the first two are easy to remedy: Download the image again, flash another USB stick, and try again.
The 3rd issue, which appears pretty common unfortunately, can only be resolved by testing another 2. Here is a list of alternatives at Amazon. The one thing I changed from your instructions was that I dumped the factoryrestore3. In the end, i went back and used Win3diskimager whatever — the utility you recommend above , and the usb stick worked just fine. Is there some reason why using dd would create and improperly formed USB stick?
That would be the only thing I can think of. Thanks, haha. Thank you for the help. The gray cover on my Apple TV tore no matter how careful I was being. Maybe doing this will help someone avoid a second flashing.
Doing this allowed the Apple TV to complete the Factory Restore to the new hard drive without further issues. Thank you! Thanks Genarrow! This worked perfectly as described. It took a few restarts of the Apple TV and iTunes to get things to coordinate, but now everything is pure Apple again. My Apple TV 1 hack had become so far out of date that it was better just to go back to the original. I can convert any video file into iTunes using iVI so now any video can now be played.
No need for the old hacks anymore. Glad to hear it worked well for you too! Thanks for leaving a nice comment! Thanks for the positive feedback — glad it worked for you too! I bought the apple tv 1 used and when i plug it in the orange light just flashes, thanks in advance for the help. Ouch, not having a paired remote can be a challenge.
I honest do not know how to work around that problem. You could try taking the harddisk out and connecting to a regular computer with an USB adapter for example and check the disk or even wipe the disk. Or … even better … place a different 2. Thanks Kyriakos for posting the tip! Yes it will! Hi, thanks for your tutorial. I currently find myself with a trusty gb ATV which I think is failing me, gets stuck in menu items, light flashing when using remote, unresponsive.
On occasion it just sticks at the language selection screen, other times it fully loads and then everything becomes unresponsive again.
I did have ATV flash installed but this was wiped when I did a factory reset. Assuming my hard drive is at fault, is it simply a case of buying a new PATA drive. Opening up the ATV. Taking the old one out. Putting the new drive in and booting it up with your USB stick method?
Do I need to do anything with new drive before I install it? Sorry if anything I have asked is really obvious or stupid. Any help is greatly appreciated. This guide to upgrade the AppleTV drive might be helpful for you!
Hope this helps! The children can watch movies once more, the wife and I can watch the tv programmes we have downloaded and bought from apple, and music and photos play in the background. As for your remote problem; Yes that can be quite tricky indeed. A chainlink appear if syncing worked. However; I have yet to run into a situation like this. Or at least: I do not recall running into this problem. All good at this point hope this helps others to get it running now I have GB to play with internally.
Which of the images did you use? Did you use v2, v3 or an OpenElec installation? If that still fails, re-download one of the images and try again. If that still fails, consider using another USB stick. A few visitors had this happen, where the original hard drive had become very unreliable. Image of TV. I have never seen this, only with damaged memory or video cards in the PC world. Now the box just boots shows apple logo then boots again after say 5 mins and keeps on in that cycle. I never got the language option etc.
Hi I am having the same issue with it booting to the apple logo and just staying there. I was wondering if you needed up finding a fix for this. All I seam to be able to do it get it to the boot screen weather it be the penguin sitting on the box installing other software or just the apple logo. Thanks in advance. I recommend testing another USB stick, if you have one. People have reported mixed results, and when switching to another USB stick, problems seem to disappear.
Will it boot from a stick? If not, what about an external HD? You could look around at the AwkwardTV Wiki for more details, for example this article. Hi Hans; Thank you so much for taking the time to try to help me. It is appreciated. Get Dougal to buy a 44pin 2. Hi Ted; I am so amazed at the help being offered here. I presently already have a Seagate, GB HD with connector setup shown in pictures sent in my email. Thank you and Hans so much for your help. Thanks again.
I received your email, but only pics of the SATA connector. Make sure you find the smallest model you can find. Thanks for the Tip and for offering to send pictures Ted.
Hi Hans; As can be seen in my reply to Ted I am very grateful for the help here. Thank you, again. Hans, Thanks much…. Awesome, glad to hear it worked for you. And … thanks for taking the time to write a thank-you note … I very much appreciated it.
Hi, everybody i did all the process and it worked immediately ,i put a go sata hardrive with sata to ide adapter and now i have go for my music collection.
Thanks you so much for your job. Did you format your HD first? Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you for the information. It seemed finicky to actually get it to work and took me many times. In the end it would go through the black screen about reinstalling and booting but after that nothing would happen. Still working on the issue… Anyone else getting this? Does this system boot with no Hard drive at all? Perhaps a bad hard drive is the issue.
OK, made some progress. It turns out having the HDMI cord plugged in messed things up. It seems to have only connected to the screen initially by the component outs red green blue connectors. Sorry, I mentioned this was the blue cable above.
If you are doing this set up i suggest you use the component outs or try them if you had the same issue i had. So I flashed the stick a second time and did the whole procedure once more.
Greetings from Die Niederlande for now anyway …. Hello there Hans, I sent you a message from my iPad earlier, and I do not see it posted it, so I am sending it again. Currently I am trying to replace the hdd on my Apple TV 1, and you mentioned that you had replaced your atv 1 hdd with a small 32Gb ssd and worked in conjunction with a Nas for your media access; my question is, how did you get the atv 1 to see the Nas drive and what brand are you using.
Thanks for posting Alan! I replaced my diseased atv hdd with a pata G ssd hard drive and proceeded to install the atv os version 3. I originally was ,going to install a sata 1 tb, but desisted from that idea, due to space limitations when you follow that method.
In my case G is not enough for all my media, however since I have all my media in a nas I will try to connect it to the atv using Kodi,. As of matter of fat, I did get the Broadcom Crystal Hd card, now that you mentioned it, when I first got the the SSD HD, but held off installing it, since you loose the wifi,i if you make the switch, however you can regain it by installing a wifi bridge or usb dongle; nevertheless my current atv os is a Linux base, which lets you display P ; are there any additional benefits to installing the CrystalHd?
With mine running OpenElec p h was problematic without the CrystalHD … granted, I have no clue how things have developed since. Well, as silly as it may sound, but … try using a different USB stick and try again. For unclear reasons, the support for certain USB sticks seems unreliable. Trying the entire process again, seems to work at times.
Using a different USB drive as well. I know that sounds horribly lame,… but as you can see in the other comments, this is not uncommon unfortunately. All I can say is thanks so much!! This page was a great help, easy step by step and everything I needed for resources was right in the document. The only thing I at first stumbled with was because I tried just copying the unzipped.
Thank you for taking the time to post a thank-you! Glad it worked for you as well! Now I can enjoy my entire music collection streaming directly to analogue amplifier without any need to have Mac or anything to be on and streaming.
As for a PayPal link; PayPal made me remove the link since my website according to them seems to be promoting activities they frown upon. I tried to explain it to them, but … well, no luck there.
I followed this exact process and it restored the ATV1 and I got my sound back. I then tried getting an older version of OSMC and lost my sound again. I have not encountered that problem …. What kind of Audio output do you use?
And if optical or HDMI, what kind of device do you use for input? Thanks for the response Hans. Oh yes, I can understand you being hesitant with that, I would be too …. A good thing to look for is the name of the drive.
You will need to enter the password for your user account when prompted:. How is OSCM running for you? Besides the potential Audio issue …. Hey guys , complete novice here ,please be gentle. I have a atv1 with only xbmc installed and no apple OS. Help please. Do you see any error messages?
Have you tried doing this with another USB stick? In that case: Try using a different USB stick. But it has been a long time ago that I needed to do this. Which is a bummer in my opinion, but then again, I can imagine that maintaining many different hardware platforms can be a lot of work. The latter seems more active, but on their forum I see that AppleTV is being pushed aside as well see this thread. I just downloaded ApplePi-Baker 1. Maybe you have to empty the cache of your browser?
Getinfo from the app: I downloaded the zip file 3 times from different links; always got the same. For the correct version number look at the window title of ApplePi-Baker which at this time should say 1. By the way: downloading ApplePi-Baker from different source is at your own risk. You should always get the latest version from Tweaking4All. Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with, and thanks again for bringing the wrong version number in the plist to my attention!
Ok on the version. I downloaded all from your site but trying different ways to get to the download to see if I got a different result. Click the padlock to unlock and enter password.
Then click Open anyway. Only have to do that once. Yeah the version was boo-boo on my end …. Thanks for the security tip! After a while I got quite fed-up with it and just disabled it all the way. Maybe not the best advise for all users. So … thanks again! I have been trying to restore my ATV Gen 1 for the past few days over and over again without luck. I have seen other struggle with the restore as well and found that using another USB stick sometimes provides the fix.
So my advise: try one or more different USB sticks. Hi, I have been trying the Mac process multiple times over the past two days now with multiple different branded USB sticks and have also now tried using V2 and V3, and each time I get to exactly the same point as Joe A above, namely I am able to see the Apple Logo appear, select Language, and then Restore to Apple Factory settings which then starts but the progress bar stays static after just a small tip of white shows at the beginning of the progress bar under the Apple logo.
If I leave it long enough it will then re-cycle to the same point. Any ideas about what else I could try to restore the original Apple TV 1 image before I just end up binning the hardware?
Just a thought. I have been able to update the 1 gen ATV. I continue to experience issues with the device freezing: whether making a selection from a menu, or navigating across the top menu selections, the device stops responding. This was occurring before the update, and is why I performed a reinstall of the system. After the reinstall, now when selecting to watch a movie trailer, about 21 seconds into watching any trailer the video freezes and does not play anymore.
I can press the menu button to go back to the iTunes store, but cannot return to the top menu, at this point the device does not do anything. Trying to understand if this may be a sign of a hard drive failure. Running the internal diagnostics, does not mention any problems with hardware. Not understanding how to correct the freezing problem, I have installed the refresh about four times with the same freezing taking place.
Understanding that it potential could be a hard drive issue, would any of these work? Also, if it does not sound to you like a drive problem, would you have a suggestion as to what to check next? Thank you for your help. I enjoy using this device and hate to lose functionality. I have started to consider investing the money instead into a current Mac mini as opposed to repairing older technology. Any suggestions are appreciated. I have used WiFi in the past, and especially with older equipment like the 1st gen ATV , found that wired networking is simply just faster and more reliable.
Take you ATV to a friend or family member and see how it performs there. You might want to look for a 2. Is your suggestion to get a 64gb and then connect an external drive to house all of my movies? As you mention, it could very well be a network issue, seems the provider service drops out intermittently as I found out last night. I have been connected to the home power line using ethernet power adaptors while I have been troubleshooting as the service port coming into the house resides in another room and I did not want to run a direct network cable.
My experiences with Ethernet Power Adapters is mediocre at best, and it would be best to eliminate all possible sources of problems during a test. This way we can at least determine if the ATV is the problem, or not. After reinstalling the v. Connecting directly to the internet modem seems to have cleared up whatever issue with the playback of movie trailers.
Though trying playback with wi-fi afterwards, I was able to get the same ability to view the trailers in the entirety. Cannot guess whatever was going on, though now the device is acting as if there was no issues with it, and I am syncing my movies library.
Previously before trying the updates this past weekend, the device would freeze and stop responding to input or selections of menus. Only one movie caused a freezing of playback, otherwise all my movies played with no issues. After all the effort this past weekend, I am wondering what is it that a direct connection via ethernet to the internet modem performs.
Since it does not now appear to be an issue with the hard drive, it is a mystery to me, though both ethernet and wi-fi connections appear to work equally well now.
As for the connection wired vs wifi ; wired is by definition just much more stable and, when done right, much faster. Much more reliable. Thank you for the very good and easy to follow instructions.
Always nice to find the exact solution for your specific issue. I also can confirm that, after had trouble being stuck in a loop of language selection — factory reset — confirm reset — language selection — factory reset … it fixed it for me to use a different usb drive. Thanks for your compliment and confirmation! If I recall correctly, accessing the recovery mode might be accessible even when the HDD is faulty. However — you will not get very far with that, since the HDD is faulty.
Hope this helps. I am starting to head towards an issue with the ATV1 power supply, it is as if the power supply kick in for a short time and then switches off. You can hear a power on, power off hum from the power unit inside. Exactly the same thing happens either with or without the drive connected. I just cannot get into recovery mode. Maybe i will try to puck up a cheap replacement on ebay and move my existing HDD into it. Thanks for your reply. See als this LibreElec link. I tested mine first by booting from an SD card, and after having used it successfully for a while, I replaced the Android OS with LibreElec completely … works great!
Very good to hear that it worked well for you as well! Hi Hans, I tried the method described above but unfortunately my Apple TV 1 only shows a screen with an Apple logo for a few seconds and then goes black and after a few seconds shows the logo again.
How did you create the USB sticks? Hi Hans, thx. I created the USB sticks as you described it above, i. I downloaded the ATV restore version 3. The only difference to your description above I noticed was that I did not have to eject the USB sticks after I ran the Apple-Pi as they were already rejected and during the conversion process from the. Could that be the issue, that the file on the USB stick is not in the correct format, so that the ATV can not read it, when it is restarting?
Leave it on the harddrive and then use APB to flash it to the stick. Hi Hans, in addition to what I just wrote, I just recognized, that the files I downloaded via the links above are no. That is interesting … I just downloaded it on my Mac and it really is a. Could it be that your Mac is hiding extensions, or somehow extracts the zip automatically? Having inserted and restarted the ATV the OpenElec logo showed up and then disappeared after a while.
Subsequently, the TV displayed some error messages disk error …. I already tried both software versions and multiple USB sticks, hence it looks like my ATV hard drive is damaged, or do you have any other idea what it could be?
If you happen to have an ATA 2. A regular PATA harddisk 2. Just for the record; since those tiny Android boxes are the same price or sometimes even cheaper than a harddrive, then I suggest getting one of those instead. Anyhow, thanks a lot for your support and I will follow your recommendations and look around for alternative solutions.
Unfortunately, it can no longer keep up with modern codec like HVEC and such …. Ehm, yeah honestly I already had trouble finding a purpose for one 1st gen ATV. I tried several times and the same result.
I used another USB and it worked flawlessy. Thanks for posting this though, it will be helpful for others! Maybe try to find an older USB 2 stick? Maybe other users here can chime in and let us know what they used. Like Christoph and Denny, I too have tried various sticks and different versions of the firmware.
It just does not work anymore…could this be anything to do with itunes no longer supporting the gen1?? I have reburned so many times I should mention, it takes about an hour for each burn for me I am flabbergasted. Any help, or suggestions is greatly appreciated!!
The images you can download here are not related to iTunes, so no worries about that, it should work. However … as you already mentioned not all sticks seem to be compatible, and the other issue seen with others is when the internal harddisk of the ATV is defective. Thank you so much for posting these remedies. Returning to ask for more help on my Apple TV. After using your solutions I have been able to get about two to three years more use from the device. It has started acting rather strange, and I am wondering if it is now a hard drive issue.
It begins to play, for a lack of being able to explain in person, all I can think to describe is that it stops for a second or two, then playback continues. It is not so much of a stuttering in that it just stops the movie and leaves the image on the tv screen as if loading more content, or thinking about what it is supposed to do next.
When viewing the main menus screen of selections, the image seems to exhibit a noticeable refresh every two to three seconds. I know there may be other solutions now, though I really like this device that I want to continue to use it.
I prefer to have a device directly connected to my tv and loaded with my media. Today, I did erase the Apple TV in an effort to get it working again with the onset of cold months, and restored using the files for the Mac that were posted, again. This has worked successfully in the past to have the device work properly. The restore seems to go fine, so I rule out a usb stick issue.
While I have not used Plex, I did not want to exit the Apple ecosystem. This may be an alternative since Apple no longer provides Front Row on the Macs. Thank you for your thoughts on how best to proceed. With that of course, that the investment for such a disk may not be worth it anymore. Personally, I dislike Plex. I guess for a good answer, it would be useful to know how you store your media.
Do you store it on the ATV? Kodi, depending on the hardware, plays pretty much anything prompt and fast. With the arrival of HEVC codecs like h, the playback device needs to be reasonably powerful or have hardware support for codec playback. The nVidia Shield with Kodi installed works very well, but as far as I know would only playback directly from a shared network drive ie.
Since you already seem to have a Mac; you can play a little with Kodi on your Mac and see if you like it — no need to invest right away. Kodi also supports so called skins, one of them as far as I recall looks very much like the interface of ATV.
While I decide whether I want to take on the effort of updating the hard drive, here is one consideration: Super Talent 2. Does this look like it would work from your previous experience? As time to perform the task is a consideration, I have no problem with the technical aspect, rather finding the time. Like most, when the weekends come around, there are many things to do that are time consuming. I use the ATV as it was originally intended, namely to sync with my desktop computer.
The files are synced via iTunes and consist of ripped cds and dvds. Though I would guess that it gets converted to a QuickTime file or something that iTunes can read. I try to keep things simple. I have also begun looking at eBay to see the ones available, as a potential replacement source. There is no need to support multiple streaming at one time. One never knows how many hours they will keep working. The same goes for used hard disks. Pick a S based models, as it seems most reliable, but folks report that S models are fine as well, Amazon has quite a few listed — do not get misled by shady promises about free TV channels and such, these would be sketchy outfits and it would be against Kodi policy.
These Android boxes are dirt cheap and often have hardware acceleration for h and h build in. Setup would be easy: No iTunes needed, just a Windows share on your Mac where all files most likely MP4 in h are stored.
I found that the nVidia Shield to perform best stability, Google Play access, frequent updates, nice remote, compatibility with Google Home and Amazon Alexa, 4K video, speed, etc. The game controller, if you even have a use for it, is not needed if you have an XBox or PlayStation laying around either — since the nVidia Shield recognizes those as well.
When installing a new replacement OS, you may run into compatibility issues with the USB stick you may be using. Thank you Hans!!! If that is the case, then the only thing I can think of is that the hard disk of the ATV is in need of replacement. From comments here and elsewhere, I have noticed this to be a relatively common issue. Seeing your previous post; this may or may not be the case with your ATV. Is anyone still responding to this thread? Everything works fine until the Apple language menu appears.
I also tried with a keyboard and mouse. Even thought this is a very old threat, I still look at the messages almost daily. Common problems are: incompatible USB stick, issues with the remote battery and such and failing harddisk. Thanks, Hans, for your feedback. Oscar, too. Same result every time… apple screen comes to the language selection menu. English is highlighted as default. But the remore simply will not trigger the menu to take me to the restore screen. Is there any trick someone knows to trigger a menu item without using the remote.
I know the ATV1 is old technology. However I have a severely disabled niece and am hoping to set up this ATV to play her favorite videos. Hi Jerry, just posted; I think! I now use Firsetick with the Plex App in different rooms and use my laptop for now as a media server. I may have tried the resync several times before it worked.
But no guarantees. An IMG file is in essence a direct image of the disk. I never had to do this, but it may just work. Try swapping the battery on the remote or using a new remote altogether.
You may need to sync the new remote if you go that route. Good point Oscar! I totally forgot about that …. Dear Hans, I really cannot thank you enough for this article! Follow the guide and it worked, even down to the fault finding when I used another memory stick and it booted up straight away. I bought my imac and apple tv in when constant blue screens on my PC drove me to insanity.
Remember those? To my amazement in 5 minutes I was indeed online! My friend and I; Mr imac; have been working faithfully now for 8 years. In recent times though, the giant, Mr Apple Mac no less, has decided to issue updates that take away some if not all of our toys by making them obsolete. No longer could i store music, pictures and films on my beloved apple tv, only streaming was allowed.
Well it sort of worked but I was not technical enough to set it up correctly, they are strictly for computer buffs. Now I was stuck with an almost useless apple tv and lots of redundant equipment. I decided I wanted my system back to the way it used to be. Found a few ideas that mostly failed, then I stumbled across your wonderful, easy to understand, fantastic, life saving site! I have noticed the following; sound on openelec was delayed substantially from computer to apple tv with a lot of drop outs.
All now cured. I am now tempted to improve the apple tv with an ssd replacement for the HD, it must be nearly worn out after 8 years almost constant use, your thoughts would be much appreciated. Keep up the excellent work for poor morons like myself to be able to beat the big corporations; Mr Apple Mac. Haha, Oh yes I remember the dialup years when going from to 14K4 and up was still amazing.
Yeah Mr. Oh well. Not sure where Apple plans to go with all this. I myself use Kodi to playback my videos and pictures. But I can see the challenges when it comes to the setup. I did find a few on Amazon; list , this Gb model expensive , this affordable 64Gb model. But the storage capacity is limited compared to a regular disk, and you have to be aware that any drive you buy may, or may not be compatible.
The ATV is picky. Hello once again, an update on the programs i am running successfully on my old imac and apple tv gen 1 that i forgot to put in my original dissertation. All updates turned OFF!
I am fed up with Mr apple mac fiddling around inside my computer and switching off my toys! So good to hear you got things working again! Merry Christmas! Question about the firmware itself. Is it stored in the eeprom on the Apple TV 1st generation motherboard? If so, has anyone figured out how to read it? Is it the same as reading the eeprom on the original xbox? But this is just a guess. I guess the question is; what do you see on your screen?
Are you by chance running macOS Catalina? Catalina has some issues when it comes to using tools like ApplePi-Baker. Message for Hans or anyone that knows. I accidentally Updated my Apple TV 1 from firmware version 1. I would like to put the original firmware back on the Apple TV but have had no luck in finding the firmware image files. If someone can point me in the correct direction to download the needed files I would really appreciate it.
I know how to do the firmware updates as listed above. I did a search attempt for you as well, and indeed finding the old 1. Not to mention that I can not vouch for these images to be legit or not. Thank you for the quick reply and for your effort.
Well, I have no special reason for wanting 1. My aTV originally came with 1. I found ApplePi-Baker and the two firmware files 2. So for now that is where it is at. Still looking for the 1. Update: People are saying yes and no. If you change the serial you would have to change the UUID? Apple looks at the serial and the UUID in the rom. I know we could figure this out some how some way. Last edited by Stephen; at PM.. Re: T2 Chip Programmer Tool.
The serial can be changed in the T2 ROM without too much trouble. It's a series 1. Serial number should show up in the dump after "mNrS" string. I don't know what are the repercussions. I'm probably at least 5 years away from seeing a T2 machine in front of me.
