Embed Notice

Trying to set up an Apple ID so I can install an app on an Apple TV. Ye gods, this is painful.
My domain seems to have triggered something and is blocked.
Talking to an agent and the domain block is removed, but it still won't let me create an account.
Ah, but the account was created and the error message was given in error.
Then although I can log into the account on a PC, AppleTV still says "No".
I thought Apple had this user interface thing down pat? Clearly not.
