Ever since tvOS 26.4, we've had some difficulties in discovering, pairing, and supervising Apple TV 4K devices using Apple Configurator 2.20. We submitted a feedback report about this issue (FB22525540). The issue has improved somewhat for me when using the latest tvOS 26.6, if the Apple TV is connected via Ethernet during the initial paring step. Sometimes the pairing still fails, but eventually I can get it to work.
However, some others on our dev / QA teams haven't had the same luck in even seeing the device as available to pair (even when the Apple TV is at the welcome screen or Remote and Devices screen, nearby, and on Ethernet along with the Mac). I've seen other cases where the pairing seems to work, but then the device doesn't appear in the Apple Configurator devices list, and therefore it’s not possible to supervise and install profiles onto it.
Are they any workarounds or other steps we can try?
