everything including jailbreaking went smoothly, but on the second to last step when i'm installing the program to my apple tv, after it finds my apple tv, I click next; and it asks for a password for remote host.
I've tried everything and looked everywhere, can anyone help me out as to what the password is?
You need to jailbreak before you can type in alpine i believe. Look at the pre installation requirements. However, for some reason I have an 4.2 firmware on my apple tv and not a 4.1 so I cant jailbreak. If anybody could help me with that that would be amazing.
ok, i tried this about 100 times. i cannot get it to work, my firware is straigtup 4.0 ATV, as stated in my settings menu on the apple tv… ive tried alpine, the password i created about 100 times, the ip address, everything. gosh. someone help me get those files transfered. is little snitch affecting this transfer:?
ive still been trying to do this . its not working. idk why its not accepting this password. im on 4.0 ATV and im even SSH and commands work ( ie: killall Lowtide)
I'm getting same issue....asking for password before transferring file. My atv is jailbroken and software is at 4.0 also. I thought this was going to be a lot easier....what a pain!
theres a post on the forum, thats called “option B”. THIS STRAIGHT UP WORKS. it requires a bit more work though, only do it if your good with computers but i finally got my thing to work after this problem. i now have couch surfer and everything. thank you to the anonymous who posted the soultion
