[[File:AppleTV Remote.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Courtesy of Apple]]Introduced to the Apple product lineup in September of 2006, the current '''Apple TV''' has transformed from a media storage and player device, to a wireless streaming digital media receiver.

The Apple TV allows users to access many different types of media on their TV, everything from HD movies and TV shows in [[iTunes]] to their own content from the [[iCloud]].

==Services==
===iTunes Movies & TV Shows===
Using your [[Apple ID]] (aka. iTunes account) you can rent HD or standard definition movies and purchase TV shows directly to your Apple TV. Within the movie menu you can access many Hollywood hits, as well as new releases. You'll have the ability to search by top movies, titles, or genre. Also, you can preview movies with trailers and see [http://www.rottentomatoes.com Rotten Tomatoes] ratings. Once a movie is rented you have 30 days to start watching it; once started, you'll have 24 hours to finish it.

Because TV shows are purchased, not rented, you can access them from anywhere using iCloud services, and they are yours to keep forever.

===iCloud===
iCloud can store all your TV shows, music (iTunes Match), photos (Photo Stream) and more.

As mentioned above, you can access all your '''TV shows''' from anywhere. If you purchase a TV show on your computer, you can access it from any of your other devices (iPad, iPod Touch, Apple TV).

With '''iTunes Match''' ($25.00 per year), users can access their entire iTunes music library whenever and where ever. On the Apple TV, this feature is accessible through the Music section on the main menu screen.

'''Photo Stream''' is accessible if enabled on your computer ([[iPhoto]]/Aperture) and/or mobile device running iOS 5 or later (iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad).

===Netflix & HuluPlus===
In order to use these features on the Apple TV, you will need to be a current subscriber to Netflix streaming services or HuluPlus. If you aren't already a subscriber, you can sign up on their respective websites, or on the Apple TV itself.

===Sports & News===
With the '''NBA''' service (paid subscription) you will have access to HD live game streaming as well as replay past games on demand. Non-subscribers will have access to real-time score, full-season statistics, team standings, and video highlights.

The '''NHL''' service (paid subscription) will also give you access to HD live game streaming, as well as the ability to replay past games on demand. You will also be able to follow your favorite NHL teams with full schedules and statistics. There are no non-suscriber features.

In the '''MLB.TV''' service (paid subscription) you will have access to HD live game streaming. This service also allows you to access archived games on demand. Non-subscribers can still access team schedules and live game stats, scores, and standings.

The '''Wall Street Journal Live''' (WSJ Live) service (free) gives users the ability watch live and on demand content from the international daily newspaper. This services covers content related to business, economic, and economic news and issues.

===Computer===
Using [[Home Sharing]], you can wirelessly stream movies, photos, and music from your computer to your Apple TV.

To stream music from your computer, located the [[AirPlay]] symbol in the bottom right-hand corner of the iTunes window. In that menu you can either select the individual source to play your music, or you can select multiple devices (e.g. Both your computer and your Apple TV).

==AirPlay==
[[File:Airplay_icon.jpg‎|right|Courtesy of Apple]]AirPlay on the Apple TV allows you to stream music, photos, and videos directly from your iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, or Mac computer onto your TV. Many of the applications that ship with the mobile devices will have AirPlay functionality enabled... there are also many other applications that can be downloaded from the App Store that have the AirPlay enabled (e.g. Pandora, Vevo, etc.)

The AirPlay symbol (pictured to the right) will appear on the mobile device when connected to the same network as the Apple TV. Tap the symbol to wirelessly stream the content from your mobile device onto your TV.

===Mirroring===
Using an [[iPad]], an [[iPhone]], or Apple Computer you can wirelessly mirror their screens onto your TV through the Apple TV. You can access this functionality through the same AirPlay symbol that would show up when the two devices are on the same network. AirPlay mirroring is only compatible with the iPad 2 or later, the iPhone 4S or later, and any Apple computer from 2011 or later.

==Controllers & Remotes==
The Apple TV ships with a remote (as pictured above). You can also download the free Remote application from the App Store for your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad. In order to use the remote application with your Apple TV, you'll need to set up Home Sharing.

==Connecting your Apple TV to �鶹��Ƶ' Network==
On the Apple TV, you have the option to use either a wireless network or an wired network to access many of the functions, but you can't use both of them simultaneously (so you must choose). If you are looking to use your Apple TV with another mobile device such as an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, you will need to use your Apple TV on the same wireless network in which they are also registered.

When looking for the network settings on the Apple TV, it is important to note that the settings page will only display the network information in which it is connected to. So, if you wish to see a wireless network, don't plug in an ethernet cord, and vice versa, if you wish to use a wired network, do plug in an ethernet cord. To register both the wireless and wired [[MAC Address|MAC addresses]], you will need to look each of them up separately.

==Finding your MAC Address==
===Wireless===
When the Apple TV is not connected to an ethernet cable, it will display the device's wireless MAC address. To locate this address, choose General under the settings tab, then select network, and look for the Wi-Fi address. The Wi-Fi address should look something like this (01:23:45:67:89:ab)... that is your MAC address.

===Ethernet===
When the Apple TV is connected to an ethernet cable, it will display the device's wired MAC address. To locate this address, choose General under the settings tab, then select network, and look for the Ethernet address. The Ethernet address should look something like this (01:23:45:67:89:ab)... that is your MAC address.

===How to register your MAC address===
To register your Apple TV please contact the [[Technology Helpline]] with your MAC address(es) by calling x6111 from a campus phone, or 507-933-6111 from an off-campus phone.

Apple

Cduhaim2: /* Intel partnership */

[[Image:applelogo.gif|15px|left]]'''Apple''' is a [[hardware]] and [[software]] company based out of Cupertino, California. Apple was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne.

==Operating Systems by Apple==

* System 7
* OS 9
* Mac OS X v10.0 (Cheetah)
* Mac OS X v10.1 (Puma)
* Mac OS X v10.2 (Jaguar)
* Mac OS X v10.3 (Panther)
* Mac OS X v10.4 (Tiger)
* Mac OS X v10.5 (Leopard)
* Mac OS X v10.6 (Snow Leopard)
* Mac OS X v10.7 (Lion)
* Mac OS X v10.8 (Mountain Lion)

==Viruses==
At the present time, Apple operating systems are '''not''' the primary targets of computer [[viruses]]. As a result, Apple users on campus have no need for anti-virus programs including the �鶹��Ƶ anti-virus software.

==History==
===Early computers===
The [[Macintosh]] was not the original computer line for Apple, they produced three computers before starting on the "Macintosh". The [[Apple I]], used [[cassettes]] for [[storage]] and was released in 1976, the [[Apple II]] which boasted [[5.25" floppy]] disks was released in 1977, and the [[Apple Lisa]] in 1983.

===The Lisa and Macintosh===
[[Image:Apple_Lisa.jpg|thumb|left|The Apple Lisa]]

The Apple Lisa and [[Apple Macintosh]] were both in development at the same time.

The Apple Lisa was named after Steve Job's daughter, but due to infighting he left the Lisa development project to work on the Macintosh project. Both projects were competing within Apple to be the first released. Inevitably, the Lisa was released before the Mac and was the first public computer with a [[Graphical User Interface]] (GUI).

[[Image:Macintosh.png|thumb|right|The Apple Macintosh]]

The failure of the severely overpriced business oriented Lisa was followed by the release of the Apple Macintosh in 1984. With the release of the [[LaserWriter]], the first [[laser printer]] presented at a reasonable price, and the Macintosh's advanced graphical abilities and Macintosh [[desktop publishing]] software at the time, the Macintosh succeeded where the Lisa failed.

The name "Macintosh" has come to be associated with every computer produced by Apple, and is no longer used to specify any specific computer. Evidence for this is found in the new PC vs Mac advertising campaign that Apple has been running.

===Beginnings of Windows rivalry===
Shortly after the release of the Macintosh, Bill Gates and [[Microsoft]] released [[Windows 3.1]], the first viable Windows alternative to [[Mac OS]]. Windows borrowed many concepts from Mac OS. Microsoft was originally developing software for the Mac but later decided to compete with it in partnership with [[IBM]].

===System 7===
[[System 7]] was the next step in operating systems for Apple computers in 1991, and it would be the basis for Mac OS until 2001. During and for a while after System 7's launch Apple was considered to be the front runner in the computer world. However, as Windows continued to be developed, it slowly started taking over and many former Mac users turned to it for its "simple" interface and ease of use.

===OS X===
[[OS X]] was first released in 2001 and brought with it the "switch" campaign and a gradual winning back of users from [[Microsoft Windows]]. This increased conversion to Mac computers has been greatly assisted by the tremendous popularity of the iPod. OS X is what is found on the majority of the Apple computers on campus. The latest version of OS X is 10.5, also known as Leopard. Features of Leopard include Spaces (virtual desktops) and Expose (hot corners). The next new version of OS X will be 10.6, dubbed Snow Leopard. Apple's current lineup of computers consist of the MacBook laptop family, entry-level Mac Mini desktops, the iMac desktop, and the high-end Mac Pro desktops.

===iPod===
The [[iPod]] was released in November of 2001 and has continued on through many iterations and has sold better than any other [[portable digital media player]]. Multiple sizes and variations are available, including the iPod Classic, iPod Nano, iPod Shuffle, and the iPod Touch. Similar to the iPod Touch is the [[iPhone]], featuring touchscreen technology, high-speed internet and email, and more. Service is provided exclusively for the iPhone through AT&T.

===iTunes===
[[iTunes]] originally started as a simple music player on Mac computers in 2001. The software later expanded and was used to start managing music for the iPod. iTunes began its online store 2003, revolutionizing the way music was sold. As the popularity of the iPod grew, the popularity of iTunes grew as well. Over five billion songs have now been purchased via iTunes and it is the number one music vendor in the United States. The iTunes Store also includes music videos, movies, TV shows, podcasts, movie rentals, and more. It is available as a free download for both Mac and Windows computers.

===Intel partnership===
Apple recently partnered with [[Intel]] to produce the [[Intel Mac Mini]], [[MacBook]], [[MacBook Pro]], [[Intel iMac]], and [[Mac Pro]]. This partnership has allowed people to run Windows on their Macs and increased the compatibility of Mac computers.

Cduhaim2: /* How to register your MAC address */

[[File:AppleTV Remote.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Courtesy of Apple]]Introduced to the Apple product lineup in September of 2006, the current '''Apple TV''' has transformed from a media storage and player device, to a wireless streaming digital media receiver.

The Apple TV allows users to access many different types of media on their TV, everything from HD movies and TV shows in [[iTunes]] to their own content from the [[iCloud]].

==Services==
===iTunes Movies & TV Shows===
Using your [[Apple ID]] (aka. iTunes account) you can rent HD or standard definition movies and purchase TV shows directly to your Apple TV. Within the movie menu you can access many Hollywood hits, as well as new releases. You'll have the ability to search by top movies, titles, or genre. Also, you can preview movies with trailers and see [http://www.rottentomatoes.com Rotten Tomatoes] ratings. Once a movie is rented you have 30 days to start watching it; once started, you'll have 24 hours to finish it.

Because TV shows are purchased, not rented, you can access them from anywhere using iCloud services, and they are yours to keep forever.

===iCloud===
iCloud can store all your TV shows, music (iTunes Match), photos (Photo Stream) and more.

As mentioned above, you can access all your '''TV shows''' from anywhere. If you purchase a TV show on your computer, you can access it from any of your other devices (iPad, iPod Touch, Apple TV).

With '''iTunes Match''' ($25.00 per year), users can access their entire iTunes music library whenever and where ever. On the Apple TV, this feature is accessible through the Music section on the main menu screen.

'''Photo Stream''' is accessible if enabled on your computer ([[iPhoto]]/Aperture) and/or mobile device running iOS 5 (iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad).

===Netflix===
In order to use this feature on the Apple TV, you will need to be a current subscriber to Netflix streaming services. If you aren't already a subscriber, you can sign up on their [http://netflix.com website].

===Sports & News===
With the '''NBA''' service (paid subscription) you will have access to HD live game streaming as well as replay past games on demand. Non-subscribers will have access to real-time score, full-season statistics, team standings, and video highlights.

The '''NHL''' service (paid subscription) will also give you access to HD live game streaming, as well as the ability to replay past games on demand. You will also be able to follow your favorite NHL teams with full schedules and statistics. There are no non-suscriber features.

In the '''MLB.TV''' service (paid subscription) you will have access to HD live game streaming. This service also allows you to access archived games on demand. Non-subscribers can still access team schedules and live game stats, scores, and standings.

The '''Wall Street Journal Live''' (WSJ Live) service (free) gives users the ability watch live and on demand content from the international daily newspaper. This services covers content related to business, economic, and economic news and issues.

===Others===
*YouTube
*Vimeo
*Flickr
*Podcasts
*MobileMe
*Radio

===Computer===
Using [[Home Sharing]], you can wirelessly stream movies, photos, and music from your computer to your Apple TV.

To stream music from your computer, located the [[AirPlay]] symbol in the bottom right-hand corner of the iTunes window. In that menu you can either select the individual source to play your music, or you can select multiple devices (e.g. Both your computer and your Apple TV).

==AirPlay==
[[File:Airplay_icon.jpg‎|right|Courtesy of Apple]]AirPlay on the Apple TV allows you to stream music, photos, and videos directly from your iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch onto your TV. Many of the applications that ship with the mobile devices will have AirPlay functionality enabled... there are also many other applications that can be downloaded from the App Store that have the AirPlay enabled (e.g. Pandora, Vevo, etc.)

The AirPlay symbol (pictured to the right) will appear on the mobile device when connected to the same network as the Apple TV. Tap the symbol to wirelessly stream the content from your mobile device onto your TV.

===Mirroring===
Using an [[iPad|iPad 2]] or an [[iPhone|iPhone 4S]] you can wirelessly mirror their screens onto your TV through the Apple TV. You can access this functionality through the same AirPlay symbol that would show up when the two devices are on the same network.

==Controllers & Remotes==
The Apple TV ships with a remote (as pictured above). You can also download the free Remote application from the App Store for your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad. In order to use the remote application with your Apple TV, you'll need to set up Home Sharing.

==Connecting your Apple TV to �鶹��Ƶ' Network==
On the Apple TV, you have the option to use either a wireless network or an wired network to access many of the functions, but you can't use both of them simultaneously (so you must choose). If you are looking to use your Apple TV with another mobile device such as an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, you will need to use your Apple TV on the same wireless network in which they are also registered.

When looking for the network settings on the Apple TV, it is important to note that the settings page will only display the network information in which it is connected to. So, if you wish to see a wireless network, don't plug in an ethernet cord, and vice versa, if you wish to use a wired network, do plug in an ethernet cord. To register both the wireless and wired [[MAC Address|MAC addresses]], you will need to look each of them up separately.

==Finding your MAC Address==
===Wireless===
When the Apple TV is not connected to an ethernet cable, it will display the device's wireless MAC address. To locate this address, choose General under the settings tab, then select network, and look for the Wi-Fi address. The Wi-Fi address should look something like this (01:23:45:67:89:ab)... that is your MAC address.

===Ethernet===
When the Apple TV is connected to an ethernet cable, it will display the device's wired MAC address. To locate this address, choose General under the settings tab, then select network, and look for the Ethernet address. The Ethernet address should look something like this (01:23:45:67:89:ab)... that is your MAC address.

===How to register your MAC address===
To register your Apple TV please contact the [[Technology Helpline]] with your MAC address(es) by calling x6111 from a campus phone, or 507-933-6111 from an off-campus phone.

Cduhaim2: /* iTunes */

[[Image:applelogo.gif|15px|left]]'''Apple''' is a [[hardware]] and [[software]] company based out of Cupertino, California. Apple was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne.

==Operating Systems by Apple==

* System 7
* OS 9
* Mac OS X v10.0 (Cheetah)
* Mac OS X v10.1 (Puma)
* Mac OS X v10.2 (Jaguar)
* Mac OS X v10.3 (Panther)
* Mac OS X v10.4 (Tiger)
* Mac OS X v10.5 (Leopard)
* Mac OS X v10.6 (Snow Leopard)
* Mac OS X v10.7 (Lion)

==Viruses==
At the present time, Apple operating systems are '''not''' the primary targets of computer [[viruses]]. As a result, Apple users on campus have no need for anti-virus programs including the �鶹��Ƶ anti-virus software.

==History==
===Early computers===
The [[Macintosh]] was not the original computer line for Apple, they produced three computers before starting on the "Macintosh". The [[Apple I]], used [[cassettes]] for [[storage]] and was released in 1976, the [[Apple II]] which boasted [[5.25" floppy]] disks was released in 1977, and the [[Apple Lisa]] in 1983.

===The Lisa and Macintosh===
[[Image:Apple_Lisa.jpg|thumb|left|The Apple Lisa]]

The Apple Lisa and [[Apple Macintosh]] were both in development at the same time.

The Apple Lisa was named after Steve Job's daughter, but due to infighting he left the Lisa development project to work on the Macintosh project. Both projects were competing within Apple to be the first released. Inevitably, the Lisa was released before the Mac and was the first public computer with a [[Graphical User Interface]] (GUI).

[[Image:Macintosh.png|thumb|right|The Apple Macintosh]]

The failure of the severely overpriced business oriented Lisa was followed by the release of the Apple Macintosh in 1984. With the release of the [[LaserWriter]], the first [[laser printer]] presented at a reasonable price, and the Macintosh's advanced graphical abilities and Macintosh [[desktop publishing]] software at the time, the Macintosh succeeded where the Lisa failed.

The name "Macintosh" has come to be associated with every computer produced by Apple, and is no longer used to specify any specific computer. Evidence for this is found in the new PC vs Mac advertising campaign that Apple has been running.

===Beginnings of Windows rivalry===
Shortly after the release of the Macintosh, Bill Gates and [[Microsoft]] released [[Windows 3.1]], the first viable Windows alternative to [[Mac OS]]. Windows borrowed many concepts from Mac OS. Microsoft was originally developing software for the Mac but later decided to compete with it in partnership with [[IBM]].

===System 7===
[[System 7]] was the next step in operating systems for Apple computers in 1991, and it would be the basis for Mac OS until 2001. During and for a while after System 7's launch Apple was considered to be the front runner in the computer world. However, as Windows continued to be developed, it slowly started taking over and many former Mac users turned to it for its "simple" interface and ease of use.

===OS X===
[[OS X]] was first released in 2001 and brought with it the "switch" campaign and a gradual winning back of users from [[Microsoft Windows]]. This increased conversion to Mac computers has been greatly assisted by the tremendous popularity of the iPod. OS X is what is found on the majority of the Apple computers on campus. The latest version of OS X is 10.5, also known as Leopard. Features of Leopard include Spaces (virtual desktops) and Expose (hot corners). The next new version of OS X will be 10.6, dubbed Snow Leopard. Apple's current lineup of computers consist of the MacBook laptop family, entry-level Mac Mini desktops, the iMac desktop, and the high-end Mac Pro desktops.

===iPod===
The [[iPod]] was released in November of 2001 and has continued on through many iterations and has sold better than any other [[portable digital media player]]. Multiple sizes and variations are available, including the iPod Classic, iPod Nano, iPod Shuffle, and the iPod Touch. Similar to the iPod Touch is the [[iPhone]], featuring touchscreen technology, high-speed internet and email, and more. Service is provided exclusively for the iPhone through AT&T.

===iTunes===
[[iTunes]] originally started as a simple music player on Mac computers in 2001. The software later expanded and was used to start managing music for the iPod. iTunes began its online store 2003, revolutionizing the way music was sold. As the popularity of the iPod grew, the popularity of iTunes grew as well. Over five billion songs have now been purchased via iTunes and it is the number one music vendor in the United States. The iTunes Store also includes music videos, movies, TV shows, podcasts, movie rentals, and more. It is available as a free download for both Mac and Windows computers.

===Intel partnership===
Apple recently partnered with [[Intel]] to produce the [[Intel Mac Mini]], [[Macbook]], [[Macbook Pro]], [[Intel iMac]], and [[Mac Pro]]. This partnership has allowed people to run Windows on their Macs and increased the compatibility of Mac computers.

[[File:AppleTV Remote.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Courtesy of Apple]]Introduced to the Apple product lineup in September of 2006, the current '''Apple TV''' has transformed from a media storage and player device, to a wireless streaming digital media receiver.

The Apple TV allows users to access many different types of media on their TV, everything from HD movies and TV shows in [[iTunes]] to their own content from the [[iCloud]].

==Services==
===iTunes Movies & TV Shows===
Using your [[Apple ID]] (aka. iTunes account) you can rent HD or standard definition movies and purchase TV shows directly to your Apple TV. Within the movie menu you can access many Hollywood hits, as well as new releases. You'll have the ability to search by top movies, titles, or genre. Also, you can preview movies with trailers and see [http://www.rottentomatoes.com Rotten Tomatoes] ratings. Once a movie is rented you have 30 days to start watching it; once started, you'll have 24 hours to finish it.

Because TV shows are purchased, not rented, you can access them from anywhere using iCloud services, and they are yours to keep forever.

===iCloud===
iCloud can store all your TV shows, music (iTunes Match), photos (Photo Stream) and more.

As mentioned above, you can access all your '''TV shows''' from anywhere. If you purchase a TV show on your computer, you can access it from any of your other devices (iPad, iPod Touch, Apple TV).

With '''iTunes Match''' ($25.00 per year), users can access their entire iTunes music library whenever and where ever. On the Apple TV, this feature is accessible through the Music section on the main menu screen.

'''Photo Stream''' is accessible if enabled on your computer ([[iPhoto]]/Aperture) and/or mobile device running iOS 5 (iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad).

===Netflix===
In order to use this feature on the Apple TV, you will need to be a current subscriber to Netflix streaming services. If you aren't already a subscriber, you can sign up on their [http://netflix.com website].

===Computer===
Using [[Home Sharing]], you can wirelessly stream movies, photos, and music from your computer to your Apple TV.

To stream music from your computer, located the [[AirPlay]] symbol in the bottom right-hand corner of the iTunes window. In that menu you can either select the individual source to play your music, or you can select multiple devices (e.g. Both your computer and your Apple TV).

==AirPlay==
[[File:Airplay_icon.jpg‎|right|Courtesy of Apple]]AirPlay on the Apple TV allows you to stream music, photos, and videos directly from your iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch onto your TV. Many of the applications that ship with the mobile devices will have AirPlay functionality enabled... there are also many other applications that can be downloaded from the App Store that have the AirPlay enabled (e.g. Pandora, Vevo, etc.)

The AirPlay symbol (pictured to the right) will appear on the mobile device when connected to the same network as the Apple TV. Tap the symbol to wirelessly stream the content from your mobile device onto your TV.

===Mirroring===
Using an [[iPad|iPad 2]] or an [[iPhone|iPhone 4S]] you can wirelessly mirror their screens onto your TV through the Apple TV. You can access this functionality through the same AirPlay symbol that would show up when the two devices are on the same network.

==Controllers & Remotes==
The Apple TV ships with a remote (as pictured above). You can also download the free Remote application from the App Store for your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad. In order to use the remote application with your Apple TV, you'll need to set up Home Sharing.

==Connecting your Apple TV to �鶹��Ƶ' Network==
On the Apple TV, you have the option to use either a wireless network or an wired network to access many of the functions, but you can't use both of them simultaneously (so you must choose). If you are looking to use your Apple TV with another mobile device such as an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, you will need to use your Apple TV on the same wireless network in which they are also registered.

When looking for the network settings on the Apple TV, it is important to note that the settings page will only display the network information in which it is connected to. So, if you wish to see a wireless network, don't plug in an ethernet cord, and vice versa, if you wish to use a wired network, do plug in an ethernet cord. To register both the wireless and wired [[MAC Address|MAC addresses]], you will need to look each of them up separately.

==Finding your MAC Address==
===Wireless===
When the Apple TV is not connected to an ethernet cable, it will display the device's wireless MAC address. To locate this address, choose General under the settings tab, then select network, and look for the Wi-Fi address. The Wi-Fi address should look something like this (01:23:45:67:89:ab)... that is your MAC address.

===Ethernet===
When the Apple TV is connected to an ethernet cable, it will display the device's wired MAC address. To locate this address, choose General under the settings tab, then select network, and look for the Ethernet address. The Ethernet address should look something like this (01:23:45:67:89:ab)... that is your MAC address.

===How to register your MAC address===
To register your Apple TV please contact the Technology Helpline with your MAC address(es) by calling x6111 from a campus phone, or 507-933-6111 from an off-campus phone.

Apple TV

2012-01-17T16:43:00Z

Cduhaim2: Categories added

[[File:AppleTV Remote.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Courtesy of Apple]]Introduced to the Apple product lineup in September of 2006, the current '''Apple TV''' has transformed from a media storage and player device, to a wireless streaming digital media receiver.

The Apple TV allows users to access many different types of media on their TV, everything from HD movies and TV shows in [[iTunes]] to their own content from the [[iCloud]].

==Services==
===iTunes Movies & TV Shows===
Using your [[Apple ID]] (aka. iTunes account) you can rent HD or standard definition movies and purchase TV shows directly to your Apple TV. Within the movie menu you can access many Hollywood hits, as well as new releases. You'll have the ability to search by top movies, titles, or genre. Also, you can preview movies with trailers and see [http://www.rottentomatoes.com Rotten Tomatoes] ratings. Once a movie is rented you have 30 days to start watching it; once started, you'll have 24 hours to finish it.

Because TV shows are purchased, not rented, you can access them from anywhere using iCloud services, and they are yours to keep forever.

===iCloud===
iCloud can store all your TV shows, music (iTunes Match), photos (Photo Stream) and more.

As mentioned above, you can access all your '''TV shows''' from anywhere. If you purchase a TV show on your computer, you can access it from any of your other devices (iPad, iPod Touch, Apple TV).

With '''iTunes Match''' ($25.00 per year), users can access their entire iTunes music library whenever and where ever. On the Apple TV, this feature is accessible through the Music section on the main menu screen.

'''Photo Stream''' is accessible if enabled on your computer ([[iPhoto]]/Aperture) and/or mobile device running iOS 5 (iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad).

===Netflix===
In order to use this feature on the Apple TV, you will need to be a current subscriber to Netflix streaming services. If you aren't already a subscriber, you can sign up on their [http://netflix.com website].

===Sports & News===
With the '''NBA''' service (paid subscription) you will have access to HD live game streaming as well as replay past games on demand. Non-subscribers will have access to real-time score, full-season statistics, team standings, and video highlights.

The '''NHL''' service (paid subscription) will also give you access to HD live game streaming, as well as the ability to replay past games on demand. You will also be able to follow your favorite NHL teams with full schedules and statistics. There are no non-suscriber features.

In the '''MLB.TV''' service (paid subscription) you will have access to HD live game streaming. This service also allows you to access archived games on demand. Non-subscribers can still access team schedules and live game stats, scores, and standings.

The '''Wall Street Journal Live''' (WSJ Live) service (free) gives users the ability watch live and on demand content from the international daily newspaper. This services covers content related to business, economic, and economic news and issues.

===Others===
*YouTube
*Vimeo
*Flickr
*Podcasts
*MobileMe
*Radio

===Computer===
Using [[Home Sharing]], you can wirelessly stream movies, photos, and music from your computer to your Apple TV.

To stream music from your computer, located the [[AirPlay]] symbol in the bottom right-hand corner of the iTunes window. In that menu you can either select the individual source to play your music, or you can select multiple devices (e.g. Both your computer and your Apple TV).

[[File:AppleTV Remote.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Courtesy of Apple]]Introduced to the Apple product lineup in September of 2006, the current '''Apple TV''' has transformed from a media storage and player device, to a wireless streaming digital media receiver.

The Apple TV allows users to access many different types of media on their TV, everything from HD movies and TV shows in [[iTunes]] to their own content from the [[iCloud]].

==Services==
===iTunes Movies & TV Shows===
Using your [[Apple ID]] (aka. iTunes account) you can rent HD or standard definition movies and purchase TV shows directly to your Apple TV. Within the movie menu you can access many Hollywood hits, as well as new releases. You'll have the ability to search by top movies, titles, or genre. Also, you can preview movies with trailers and see [http://www.rottentomatoes.com Rotten Tomatoes] ratings. Once a movie is rented you have 30 days to start watching it; once started, you'll have 24 hours to finish it.

Because TV shows are purchased, not rented, you can access them from anywhere using iCloud services, and they are yours to keep forever.

===iCloud===
iCloud can store all your TV shows, music (iTunes Match), photos (Photo Stream) and more.

As mentioned above, you can access all your '''TV shows''' from anywhere. If you purchase a TV show on your computer, you can access it from any of your other devices (iPad, iPod Touch, Apple TV).

With '''iTunes Match''' ($25.00 per year), users can access their entire iTunes music library whenever and where ever. On the Apple TV, this feature is accessible through the Music section on the main menu screen.

'''Photo Stream''' is accessible if enabled on your computer ([[iPhoto]]/Aperture) and/or mobile device running iOS 5 (iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad).

===Netflix===
In order to use this feature on the Apple TV, you will need to be a current subscriber to Netflix streaming services. If you aren't already a subscriber, you can sign up on their [http://netflix.com website].

===Sports & News===
With the '''NBA''' service (paid subscription) you will have access to HD live game streaming as well as replay past games on demand. Non-subscribers will have access to real-time score, full-season statistics, team standings, and video highlights.

The '''NHL''' service (paid subscription) will also give you access to HD live game streaming, as well as the ability to replay past games on demand. You will also be able to follow your favorite NHL teams with full schedules and statistics. There are no non-suscriber features.

In the '''MLB.TV''' service (paid subscription) you will have access to HD live game streaming. This service also allows you to access archived games on demand. Non-subscribers can still access team schedules and live game stats, scores, and standings.

The '''Wall Street Journal Live''' (WSJ Live) service (free) gives users the ability watch live and on demand content from the international daily newspaper. This services covers content related to business, economic, and economic news and issues.

===Computer===
Using [[Home Sharing]], you can wirelessly stream movies, photos, and music from your computer to your Apple TV.

To stream music from your computer, located the [[AirPlay]] symbol in the bottom right-hand corner of the iTunes window. In that menu you can either select the individual source to play your music, or you can select multiple devices (e.g. Both your computer and your Apple TV).

==AirPlay==
[[File:Airplay_icon.jpg‎|right|Courtesy of Apple]]AirPlay on the Apple TV allows you to stream music, photos, and videos directly from your iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch onto your TV. Many of the applications that ship with the mobile devices will have AirPlay functionality enabled... there are also many other applications that can be downloaded from the App Store that have the AirPlay enabled (e.g. Pandora, Vevo, etc.)

The AirPlay symbol (pictured to the right) will appear on the mobile device when connected to the same network as the Apple TV. Tap the symbol to wirelessly stream the content from your mobile device onto your TV.

===Mirroring===
Using an [[iPad|iPad 2]] or an [[iPhone|iPhone 4S]] you can wirelessly mirror their screens onto your TV through the Apple TV. You can access this functionality trough the same AirPlay symbol that would show up when the two devices are on the same network.

==Controllers & Remotes==
The Apple TV ships with a remote (as pictured above). You can also download the free Remote application from the App Store for your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad. In order to use the remote application with your Apple TV, you'll need to set up Home Sharing.

==Connecting your Apple TV to �鶹��Ƶ' Network==
On the Apple TV, you have the option to use either a wireless network or an wired network to access many of the functions, but you can't use both of them simultaneously (so you must choose). If you are looking to use your Apple TV with another mobile device such as an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, you will need to use your Apple TV on the same wireless network in which they are also registered.

When looking for the network settings on the Apple TV, it is important to note that the settings page will only display the network information in which it is connected to. So, if you wish to see a wireless network, don't plug in an ethernet cord, and vice versa, if you wish to use a wired network, do plug in an ethernet cord. To register both the wireless and wired MAC addresses, you will need to look each of them up separately.

===Wireless===
When the Apple TV is not connected to an ethernet cable, it will display the device's wireless MAC address. To locate this address, choose General under the settings tab, then select network, and look for the Wi-Fi address. The Wi-Fi address should look something like this (01:23:45:67:89:ab)... that is your MAC address.

===Ethernet===
When the Apple TV is connected to an ethernet cable, it will display the device's wired MAC address. To locate this address, choose General under the settings tab, then select network, and look for the Ethernet address. The Ethernet address should look something like this (01:23:45:67:89:ab)... that is your MAC address.

===How to register your MAC address===
To register your Apple TV please contact the Technology Helpline with your MAC address(es) by calling x6111 from a campus phone, or 507-933-6111 from an off-campus phone.
