ATV 3 started to flash on off light consistantley, cannot command with remote and have tried to turn power off and restart. Keeps doing the same thing, just flashing

1: Change out your remote battery ( CR 2032 ) just in case. 2: Press MENU & DOWN arrow buttons simultaneously till the indicator light flashes rapidly. 3: Release both buttons.

  • Your AppleTV will restart and continue the boot sequence.

this is not working for me. My apple TV 3rd generation, i got home and see it keep flashing, maybe it auto update or something, I tried many way, can not control the apple TV anymore. The white light keep flashing. My TV screen display no signal. I can not search apple TV in my wireless network.
