    New Apple TV 4K remote keeps losing connection

    Got the new Apple TV 4K yesterday. The connection to the remote keeps getting lost, then connected again automatically. Very annoying while watching things with the pop up in the corner. Tried repairing twice. Tried hard reset. Tried charging the remote. Any ideas??

    Connecting Apps

    I finally realized, weeks after cancelling my Disney+ subscription, that I could go into my Apple TV app settings and disconnect apps so that they don’t show up as playable when browsing movies. I noticed that my HBO Max wasn’t connected, so I manually connected it. Should the Apple TV app have...

    Can I Copy Movies From My PC to Apple TV Hard Disk?

    I guess kind of a newbie question, thanks in advance for your patience. I'm contemplating buying the new Apple TV 4k when it comes out in May. (Possibly pair it with my HomePods for audio output, maybe pick up the AirPods Max as well.) Currently I have a Windows PC and I use Plex for viewing...

    Purchased TV Shows - Wrong Or Missing Artwork on Apple TV

    Lately I’ve noticed that the cover artwork when you go into the TV Shows app and go to Purchased is all over the place. It always used to be the case that when you had multiple seasons of a TV show, the main artwork in the square grid view would be of the latest season. If you had bough then...

    Anybody use Infuse or something else to stream from Google Drive on Apple TV?

    Hey guys, any of you use Infuse or an app like it to stream videos from Google Drive? If so, how well does it work for really large 4K files and passing audio formats through? Looking for an alternative to Kodi, which afaik is not available on Apple TV.

    HomePod Sonos One SL much better than HomePod Mini, or have I a bad one?

    I have an Apple TV in kitchen, that I mostly use for listening to music, sometimes radio via Broadcasts, sometimes Apple Music. For a year I had a Sonos One SL connected via airplay, I didn’t want the Alexa version because I don’t want Amazon listening in. It worked well and sounded well and was...

    AT&T TV for Apple TV

    I've noticed the AT&T TV app for Apple TV seems a lot more glitchy since recent updates were released. Navigation through the Guide, Watch Now, and My Library is really jittery, a strange combination of both under- and over-sensitive movement when being navigated with the touchscreen on both the...

    Apple TV’s best game controllers

    Hi, I was thinking about getting two controllers for the Apple TV 4K 64GB in order to check out that arcade feature... Do you guys think it’s worth it? What’s your experiences when it comes to gaming on the Apple TV? Which controller would you recommend? I’m not much of a gamer. I just have an...

    Disney Plus and Filmmaker Mode?

    While I can get Dolby Vision with Disney Plus on my Apple TV 4K, I’ve noticed that it doesn’t give me the option for filmmaker mode. Maybe this picture setting is reserved for purchased or rented movies, for example, as opposed to streaming content?

    [Help] ATV4 Requires Device Verification, Airplay Broken For Previously Working Devices

    I currently have an AppleTV 4 running tvOS 13 and need to turn off all device verification (mandatory one time passcode) for airplay. This has apparently been broken since tvOS 10.2 according to what I could find on the subject. I had been using an older AppleTV 2 for years with all of my...

    We just found out our ceiling is being sheetrocked tomorrow and we are scrambling to finalize our sound system plans. Originally we thought we would buy some decent in-ceiling speakers and run some speaker wire over to the area where the cabinet that will house our TV and amp will be (and decide...

    MDM for Families?

    Is there an MDM solution that works well for families? I have 20 Apple devices in my home (and growing), supporting a family of five. Keeping all those devices updated and managed is a constant, often stressful undertaking. If it helps, I’m a registered Apple dev and am enrolled in Apple...

    Would My Apple TV 4K and LG CX OLED TV Benefit from an HDMI 2.1 Cable?

    I’m currently using an HDMI 2.0 cable. Would I benefit by upgrading to an HDMI 2.1 cable? As far as future proofing goes, I wonder if the next Apple TV hardware will take advantage of the HDMI 2.1 technology.

    Apple TV not playing "matched" music in cloud, only Apple Music files

    The is only happening to me on Apple TV. When I click on albums/songs from the Apple Music subscription library, I get the tracklist and they play no problem. For the past couple of weeks it has not played any of my "matched" or uploaded songs in my cloud. The artwork for the matched music shows...

    Samsung TV, and Pink and Blue Coloring?

    Greetings all, I have an Samsung TV, the model is UN55TU8000F. It's a 55" 4K UHD HDR television. It has an app built in for Apple TV. When Lord of the Rings was released earlier in December, we decided to start buying them in the new formats. The first film played fine with zero issues after...

    Fitness+ Fitness+ on TV using iPad USB-C to HDMI?

    For those without an Apple TV but have an iPad with USB-C and want to experience Fitness+ on a big screen TV, does Apple "allow you" to mirror the display to a TV via HDMI? Is there some kind of HDCP protection that prevents this, presumably to force people to purchase Apple TVs?
