I’m getting an “AF-1004” error message from my Apple TV set up whenever I ask Siri to switch to Spectrum tv. I am otherwise able to watch (stream) everything else on Apple. I have no other network connection issues with my desktop, laptop, or iPad, so I don’t really think I have an issue here. Is the best approach to go directly to Spectrum or can I reboot something on my own? I’ve unplugged everything but the router a few times without success. Also, before this happened I had a problem where the Apple remote failed to work at all and I had to use the remote from the connected DVD player to even power up the system.

The Spectrum app is giving this error, so Spectrum Support should at least be able to help you diagnose it.

xFE-1004 is listed as “Check Connection”, where the first letter stands for a specific device; probably A for Apple TV box.

It probably means that the app suspects that it isn’t connected to the internet.

If other apps connect to internet just fine, then reset the app:

  • Force-close the app, then relaunch and try again.
  • If the issue persists, force-quit the app, restart the device, then relaunch and try again.
  • If the issue still persists, delete the app, re-download from the App Store and try again.
  • If the issue still persists, then you did all you could, and then Spectrum will have to fix their app.

  • Is the no signal error message on tv while streaming with apple tv from the TV or the router box or from Apple TV?For the last month, I've been getting "no signal etc." error message in blue box on my TV screen and can't restart TV until I pull out and plug back in the power cord to the Apple TV box. The white light on Apple TV blinks and then TV restarts and I navigate back to movie I was watching. Is this because my internet is too slow or because of internet latency issues? I began using an ethernet cable connecting Apple TV box to modem/router, and it is still happening. I updated and restarted the Apple TV box which is an older model with silver remote. Do I need a new Apple TV or other streaming device to replace my current Apple TV? 8465

Try restarting the remote and pairing it again, as described in: If your Apple TV remote isn't working - Apple Support
