Greetings! On the right of the image below is the internals of the second generation Siri Remote: However, I lose my remote a lot. Apple could have fixed this solution, but they chose not to. I am wondering if its possible for Apple the add the U1 chip to the Siri Remote. Personally, I...

Hello, A friend told me to use VLC on my Apple TV so I can stream the local files from my iMac onto the Apple TV through SMB. Now that I've tried to set up, I'm confused and can't make it work for various reasons : - First, I'm not sure of which one is the right folder on the VLC tab because...

I was hoping iOS 16 would have resolved this, but selecting the subtitles button while watching a show on Apple TV using the Control Center Apple TV remote is still an issue. I can sometimes get to it if I skip up several times, but most of the time, I can’t. Are there any tips or tricks to...

Since updating to iOS 16, the Apple TV remote in Control Center no longer controls the volume for my Bose soundbar, which is plugged into the ARC HDMI port. Has anyone else experienced something similar? Any suggestions on how I might be able to resolve this?

Not sure if it’s just FOMO, but modern 4K TVs have built-in apps like Netflix, Prime and tv+. I also use my PS5 for gaming and occasionally YouTube. With a sound bar connected in optical, that’s 2 remotes and 1 HDMI port used. From first glance, it’s seems quite annoying to have another...

Hello Everyone, This one has been boggling my mind and I wanted to reach out for some help. Under settings, notifications. The TV app doesn’t appear. I can’t find anywhere in the tv app to turn on notifications and I tried under TV in the settings menu, but it only is giving access to Siri. I...

So, I don't remember exactly when it happened, but for the past few months, I have had a problem getting my ATV to connect to my Mac Mini to play movies and other videos. Sometimes, infrequently, I can get it to see the content, and then sometimes it will actually play the content, and...

My loved Apple TV has seen better days. It recently (over the past few days) has decided to randomly and without notice, go into stand-by mode. Occasionally it will happen after seeing this pop-up: "Press and hold the power button to shut down." Other times... it gets me in the middle of a...

Hi everyone! I currently own a Apple TV 4K. Works fine and all. But I’m also trying to clear out some cables, and wondering since my TV can access streaming apps on its own, I’m wondering if it’s worth keeping my Apple TV. I don’t play games on it. I do access my purchased content from Apple...

Hey y'all, So I moved to Germany and have a ton of American regional movies on my Apple TV. My girlfriend is German and I was hoping if I change the region to Germany, it will change the languages of the movies on my list to include a German dubbed version? An amazing bonus would be if it had...

On the Apple TV app I have noticed movies in my purchased library that have an incorrect release year or cast information is incorrect. Is there an email address or way to tell iTunes so they can correct this?

Hi All, Does anyone know of a way to factory reset these things without a network connection or using a remote? I have some Apple TV 4K HDR units that are managed by JAMF Pro. They are locked in to conference mode, which prevents users from using the ATV remote to do anything other than wake...

I use an AppleTV and stereo Homepods for listening to music. I don’t need a TV screen on all the time for this and prefer to turn the TV off. I am not particularly impressed with Homepod Siri selecting music and so currently must turn the TV back on to select my music. It would be much better if...

Hey all, I recently upgraded to a 2021 Apple TV 4K, to replace an aging Apple TV 4th Generation. I also have an Apple TV 4K (2017). I've Recently been experiencing UI lag with the 2021 model (mainly in the app switcher.) What happens is the video freezes on screen but can still hear...

Hi all, I've been using a Robin ProLine Doorbell for almost 1 year now. It allows me to see a live video from my doorbell and start a live conversation with a visitor, right from the Apple Home app. Prior to the launch of Logitech Circle View Doorbell, it was the only doorbell officially...

I use Airplay to stream music to my appletv, but often enough audio cuts out completely and in the worst times, trying to airplay audio gets "cannot connect to AppleTV" error messages. Rebooting devices doesn't help. At the same time, display sharing to AppleTV via AirPlay (which also sets audio...

I did a factory reset on an older Apple TV, but it still shows up in the drop-down of Apple TVs from “Choose a TV” in the remote function in Control Center. Is there a way to remove this?

Hello, Has anyone ever encountered connectivity issues with their Apple TV and Wi-Fi when the router is placed in an adjacent room? I live in a 1BR apartment and my Apple TV HD (4th Generation) losses connection constantly in my bedroom — Netflix will get extremely pixellated, while other...

Is anyone else having this issue?? I have used Fitness+ on my Apple TV since the service was first offered, but for the past month or so, I experience ridiculously long waits on the “Connect on your Apple Watch…” screen. I open the Fitness app on my Apple TV, it asks me to select an Apple...
