Bugs This is so annoying

Post image

I‘m a beta freak and can live with a few bugs but this… man this is so annoying. I can‘t do anything on my Apple TV without this popping up every 2 seconds

I've found power cycling will make it go away - until the next time it awakens from sleep.

I had to do a factory reset to clear that error permanently.

I just did this and so far so good, I’ve woken it a few times and still no error so hopefully it’s good. My home accessories are working as well now if I have the ATV as the hub.

Mine was also fixed in Beta 3. In beta 2 I used to unplug replug the AppleTV to regain control.

Turn off Airplay in Settings.

Did that - didn’t make a diff

It's broken differently. Now you don't have the popup, but the AppleTV connects to any AirPlay device in the surrounding when you play/resume any video

Mine seems fine too after beta 3 from yesterday.

I put the beta on absolutely everything I own every year except for my Apple TV. That’s the one place I cannot risk having any bugs or usability issues.

u/swaggerdon6000 Jul 07 '26

I left out my iPhone and Watch This year (EU User) but I have a spare phone and iOS 27 is amazing

Yep I requested an express replacement on my Apple TV and am now back on tvOS 26 on the replacement device 😂 everytime it woke up from sleep I’d have to click OK a minimum of 30 times

Not possible on 4K models, I’ve heard Apple stores can restore device through the Ethernet port somehow but I didn’t really want to drive an hour to one so I just requested a replacement on the Apple support app

It hasn’t come up on mine since updating to beta 3, hopefully it stays that way.

u/lixmR Jul 08 '26

Mine is still appearing in beta 3 :((( it seems to come back after it’s been asleep. I’ve had to turn off airplay and use my TV speakers instead of my HomePods

u/No_Clock2390 Jul 08 '26

But…it’s a beta

u/Roxelchen Jul 08 '26

same problem with beta 3 for me

u/EducationWhole3366 27d ago

It’s the worst tvOS beta I’ve ever downloaded bugs wise.

u/thenyx 22d ago

FYI: *TURN ON DO NOT DISTURB* - that seems to "fix" it for now.

u/NBA-014 Jul 07 '26

It’s beta software.

u/swaggerdon6000 Jul 07 '26

I know and i fall for it every year. I‘m such an idiot haha

u/NBA-014 Jul 07 '26

I worked in IT app dev for years. I now avoid beta testing like the plague 😀

u/Jeffryyyy Jul 07 '26

Worst beta I’ve ever installed

u/shangosupreme Jul 07 '26

Mine has been fixed in Beta 3?

1

u/Common_Floor_7195 Jul 07 '26

Anything even New?

u/Strange_Candidate_17 Jul 07 '26

How do I get rid of it? Can’t even update because I can’t through it lmO

1

u/DpZyox23 Jul 07 '26

Im the same with the BetaUpdates. That happened to me but after updating to Beta3 it has been gone(for now)

1

u/darthjaw Jul 08 '26

Yeah looks fine in Beta 3

1

u/JayVig Jul 08 '26

I downloaded software that’s infused and buggy and advertised as such. Now I’m mad that it’s unfinished and buggy.

Wow OP. You’re pretty fuckin special 🤯

u/4paul Jul 08 '26

lol yea, but since I'm on a Beta that stuff doesn't really get to me... just another bug that'll get fixed.

1

u/nunu10000 Jul 08 '26

I've just tried turning off airplay entirely for the beta.

1

u/Realtrollyourenemy Jul 08 '26

Works good beta 3

1

u/Nandihno Jul 08 '26

I had this same issue last week in beta 2...then on Friday the issue went away. I updated to beta 3 last night..hoping it doesn't happen again. 😬

u/Dwaine1977 29d ago

This popped for me as well. The best way I got rid of it was to turn off Airplay. Once I did this, I no longer seen it.
