Apple TV as replacement for Directv

Hello,
Likely I should be using a search button but too much go over and well I am lazy doing so, so I'm apologies for this.
So I have Directv and I'm watching most are NHL (it's essy to get on Apple TV), Dicovery, History, National Geographic, Travel Channel, TLC, NET Geo Wild, SCI, VEL, NBC Sports, some local like NBC, FOX, ABC, BBCAmerica and some other channels cant remember now, but it's all in HD. Also my kids are watching all kids channels and kids shows.
I'm watching NBC Sports HD a lot since it has F1 racing, Soccer (UK), Hockey.
NFL is local channel is important but I can live without if I can find somewhere on-line.
So my question if it's possible to replace Directv with Apple TV and still have same channesl on my TV.
Please advice me how and prices? Like Hulu or Netflex???....
Alos it's possible to watch something later, like I do a lot on Diretv DVR.
I have Macbook, bunch Iphones and Ipads.
Thank you

AppleTV is not a direct replacement for any tv service.

Apple never accept replacement for their yellowish screen on my new iphone5s

I bought iphone5s few days ago and I reallized that my screen is yellowish. Applecare also agreed with yellowish screen on my phone.
but finally, Apple said it can not be replaced because yellow screen is not hardware failure..
I should see yellow color only instead of white for 2 years!!!!!!
Can you agree that? Anybody there to help me?

If either of you purchased the iPhone directly from Apple within the last fourteen calendar days, you should be able to return it for refund, though that policy will depend on the country you're in. If you purchased from an authorized reseller, that reseller's return policy if any will apply.
If you're outside of any return policy, then if Apple Support says that they won't replace the iPhone, there's probably nothing you can do. Only Apple can make that determination and if they've refused replacement, I'm afraid that's the end of it. You can try calling Apple Support and asking to speak with Customer Relations and see if they can help, but if they can't, then you will have hit a dead end.
Note, however, that the yellow tint often fades across the first few weeks of use, so even if Apple refuses a replacement, you may find that matters improve over time.
Regards.

Where do i get an original battery replacement for iPhone4 in India?

just wanted to know where can i get a genuine apple oem battery replacement for iPhone4 in India???

Take the device to an authorized repair facitility or Apple store (if there are any in India) and pay them to replace the battery. The device is not designed to be user servicable in any way. Apple does not sell parts.

I could not get my iPhone 5 which purchased in Australia repaired by apple in the US. Guys from apple retail store verified a replacement for me and asked to call apple care. However, apple care said they cannot get it fixed nor repaired.

My iPhone 5 got some defects and I went to a apple reatil store yesterday. The guy from the genius bar told me that he verified a replacement for me. And I need to call 1-800-apple care to finish that process. I called apple care and one of the senior supervisors told me that I have to send it back to Australia (where I bought this iPhone) to get it repaired. Turns out I could not solve the problem after a apple store vist and several calls. I just want to know if there any way to solve this. This iPhone is a factory unlocked one that purchased in an apple retail store in Melbourne at the day it was first released. And my experience today is not what I can tell as fair. I will be really appreciate for any helps and advices. Thanks.

Warranty on iPhone is not international, but valid only in country of
original sale. Since you purchased the iPhone in Australia, your warranty
is valid only in Australia. You must either personally return the iPhone
to Australia for evaluation and possible replacement or sent it to someone
in Australia to take into Apple for the evaluation. Apple will not accept
international shipments for repair nor will Apple ship out of the country
after replacement.
Sorry to be the bearer of this news, but it is the way iPhone warranty and
replacement has always worked.

Is Apple about to introduce a replacement for iWeb?? and where can I download iWeb to replace the one I lost??

Having spent a little time searching for a replacement download for iWeb (details of why below) it seems that I cannot find it anywhere in Apple Land. From my limited experience here (iphone, macbook pro, airport extreme and airport express) it looks like Apple gradually withdraws stuff prior to introducing something really exciting to replace it.
So
Question:   Is there a new super replacement for iWeb about to be introduced?
I cannot believe that Apple would take away something as great as iWeb (having read reviews and used it myself as a complete web novice) without giving us something better.
I foolishly followed some genius advice and did a wipe/reload of Lion, prior to updating to Mountain Lion (my fault, I thought my lovely Macbook Pro was running a little slow - probably wasnt - just me being impatient.) Anyway, long story short, I lost iphoto (got it back by re-purchasing but would like a refund - another string running with this),   iWeb - can't find it anywhere - asked questions here in Apple Land and am getting some conflicting answers.
I am sat in London without my iweb for a some days and would really like to get on with a bit of web stuff.
Question: is there anywhere in Apple Land where I can download iWeb
Question: can you confirm that the iweb programme will be on one of the disks that came with the machine?   (they are 100 miles away so I will have to wait, unless there is an easier way)
Sorry, rambling a bit.
Hope you can help out there
Thanks
Steve

The iWeb application was specifically created to be used with .Mac and then MobileMe and Apple withdrew support for iWeb several months ago, when it was announced that MobileMe would be no longer and would be replaced by iCloud. MobileMe ceased at the end of June this year and has been replaced by iCloud, that does not offer web hosting, so no need for iWeb.
Apple stopped selling iWeb in its stores several months ago and has withdrawn support for iWeb, so no, you won't find either iWeb or iDVD for sale in the Mac App Store because Apple no longer sells it.
You cannot download iWeb, so if you want iWeb, you will have to purchase the iLife 11 boxed set from Amazon and this contains iWeb 09 which is the latest version of iWeb. Apple does not sell this either.
If your Mac was running Snow Leopard, then it would have come with installation CD's, so yes, you should be able to re-load the whole of the iLife series, which includes iWeb, iDVD and iPhoto back onto your Mac running Mountain Lion. You did not need to make an additional purcahse of iPhoto from the Mac App Store - you could have re-loaded from these CD's. The only place you will get a refund is by contacting the Mac App Store. Nobody here can help you with that.
So if you want iWeb back, check to see if it is on you installation CD's - it should be if you have a Mac running Snow Leopard and put it back on your Mac from there. If not, then your only option is to purchase the iLife 11 boxed set from Amazon and you can load iWeb from there.
As Apple no longer supports iWeb and there is no MobileMe any longer, then there are unikely to be any further updates to the programme and nothing else will come along. You can still use the app though if you have it and it works with Mountain Lion, however, there may come a time when it won't work with future iOS updates, so it would pay you to look at the alternatives out there which are many and varied. Take a look at RapidWeaver, Sandvox, Freeway Pro/Express, Flux 4 etc. You can download free trials of most and some are for sale in the Mac App Store.

My wife's new iphone4 (a replacement for a 5 month-old iphone 4 with home button issues) is not recognized by itunes. Every other ios device in the house using that computer and Apple ID is. Any suggestions?

My wife's brand new iphone4 (which was a replacement for a 4month-old iphone4 with home button issues) is not recognized by itunes. Every other ios device on the computer/Apple ID in question is recognized and syncs perfectly. Any suggestions?

If the new phone has already been setup, make sure the phone and iTunes are both set to the same account.
You might also have to authorize this computer for the new device under the store menu.

What is the cost of replacing a battery for an Ipad 2 in India? On asking the service centre, I was informed the entire Ipad would be replaced for 20K which is exorbitant. Is it advisable to buy the Apple protection program in this case?

Hello, your best bet would be to clone your drive to an external drive, which will be bootable.

You're not likely to see any updates show up for 10.5.x
The very first MacBook 1,1s can actually run 10.6, which is updatable to 10.6.8, but will only run in 32 bit mode on yours.

If i want to replace the back case for an iphone 3g and i provide the back case, will Apple do the actual replacement for me?

The black back case on my iphone 3g is cracked. i would like to replace the back case with a new white one. I saw the video on how to do the replacement on youtube and found it complicated. if i take the new back case and the phone to Apple, will the replace the broken back case for me?

Regarding the iPhone 3G, the only repair that Apple Genius does on that device is the Front Screen Replacement. So they could help you get the front assembly back on when you are done with the repair. To give you a better idea, the Genius do not even replace the battery on the iPhone 3G. Apple will not help you with this repair.

Iphone 4s front glass screen smashed. Will apple replace for free if I have Apple Care?

Iphone 4s front glass screen smashed. Will apple replace for free if I have Apple Care? Can I do it in any Apple Store? I bought it in EEUU

Sorry no
the iPhone can not be serviced anywhere other than the US
The warranty is NOT international it is only valid in the country of purchase
AppleCare + as explained is also NOT international it is only
valid in the US
This is why all responders recommend against buying in USA
you are resident in another country
Just for reference an iPhone purchased within the European Union
can be serviced under warranty in any member EU state
However that does not help you

Same problem that everybody has after up dating my apple tv. Apple is to blame for this and should solve problem or replace unit.

Is my Apple-Issued Replacement for a Verizon-Issued iPhone 5 Unlocked?

Due to a water accident I went to Apple and they sold me a replacement for my Verizon-Issued iPhone 5. If I understand correctly, Verizon's iPhone 5 was shipped to customers unlocked. Is the phone that I got from Apple as a replacement (and I was told that I was getting exactly what I already had) unlocked? I really need to know as I am about to go overseas.
Thanks

Yes, the GSM side of your replacement phone is unlocked.

Why is apple repairs so expensive when i can get the ipodtouch battery replaced for $9.99 at digiexpress????

I paid $150 for a replacement ipod which died in a month. Apple wanted
Another $150 but i went to digiexpress and they replaced the battery for $9.99!
Whats up with apple??

You should have had a 90-day warranty on the replacement iPod, so if it indeed failed in a month, Apple should have replaced it. Did they refuse, and if so what reason did they give? Or did you wait until after 90 days to contact them?
As to the replacement price, Apple charges only US $79 for battery replacement on an iPod touch, not $150. Who quoted you $150?
