Exchange program for older Apple TV units

My wife and I are proud owners of multiple Apple TV units for several years now and have always highly recommended them to friends and family as a means for watching content on existing TV sets. To our disappointment—especially with my kids—we recently discovered that YouTube functionality has been removed from all prior generations of Apple TV units. This is quite upsetting as viewing YouTube content on our TVs was a major benefit to Apple TV ownership. We now face an unfortunate decision of whether to purchase replacement devices. We hate the idea of shelling out more money just so we can gain back functionality that was taken away from existing purchases.
Can I visit my local Apple Store and exchange our current Apple TV units for newer ones?
Also, what's to stop other channels/apps from being discontinued in the future?
- Sincerely, longtime Apple TV advocate

Unfortunately, there is no such exchange program available to you. I know it probably won't alleviate all your displeasure at the current situation, but as I understand it, it is Google that have made the decision not to support this old app and there is little that Apple can do about this.

    does apple have trade in program for older model ipods?

    They will give you 10% off a new one as reward for recycling your old one, but no direct up-trade.

  • Is Apple going to have an exchange program for ipods?  (IE Getting credit for old ipod for new one?_

    Apple exchange?

    Another alternative is various retailers will give you store credit for older devices that work and you can use that credit towards your new device. Best Buy and Amazon (in the us anyway) give store credit and Radio SHack may also.
    I'm sure there are various internet services of questionable honesty, but there are at least a couple very reputable companies. Best Buy gave me $70 for my like new condition iPod 4, so it was almost like getting 30% off the new one.
    Something you can look into.
    If it's a non-functional device, then Apple's program could be your best bet since these companies want working devices that they can resell.

  • Battery exchange program for iBook

    Hi,
    I ordered true the battery exchange program a new battery for my iBook 4G. I also got a confirmation emal from Apple that i reicive the batteru in 3 a 5 days. This was on 29 december 05 and still the battery isn't arived yet.
    Is this normal?
    thanks

    Hi,
    I had to wait a while for my battery too. I ordered on the 24th December, it arrived on the 14th January. A little longer than Apple advised in the email, I guess delays because of Christmas.
    If my delivery is anything to go by you should get yours pretty soon.

  • Why is there no exchange program for people who bought ipad2 before the release date of ipad3

    I sold my iPad 64g 3g on 12 December 11 so I could buy and iPad 2 64g 3G iPad2 on Xmas then three months later ipad3 comes out I have been I contact with apple support and they tell me to sell it on the returns program they would offer me £300 for it I payed £700 with three years cover plan.
    I would have been happy to wait three months if I was notified that there was an iPad 3 release date but nothing came out .
    So I ask apple and you why is there no exchange program in place for new owners of iPad 2 to be able to exchange for iPad 3 this is good business for the support we give apple in buying they're products time after time

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Rhetorical Question: "Have you heard that juicy rumor about the 'iPad X' yet?"
    Apple, as a rule, does not announce hardware products far in advance of actual ordering availability.
    More importantly, the Terms of Service for users Apple Support Communities does not permit such speculation here.
    There were rumors and speculation about capabilities of the 'iPad 3' published online within hours of the release of the iPad 2 one year ago. If you want to 'keep up' with the rumors, I suggest taking few moments every month to visit websites like The Unofficial Apple Weblog (tuaw.com), and The Apple Insider (appleinsider.com), among others. You'll find a wealth of information about current products as well as plenty of rampant speculation about future products and projected release dates there.
    Regarding 'trade-in' or 'trade-up', Apple has built their organization to manufacture and market new devices, media, and software. As you discovered with your original iPad, the best solution may be to sell your current device privately and buy a new one if you have a compelling need to upgrade to the latest model.
    And, try as I might, I've never convinced my local car dealer to take my 3-month-old vehicle with 3,000 miles in equal trade for the shiny new model that was just introduced. But honestly, I'm buying run-of-the-mill 'daily transportation', not collectible automotive-works-of-art that will appreciate in value over time.

  • Dongle for older apple keyboard

    Hi everyone.
    I have a couple of small issues that Im taking some time to remedy.
    I love the older bluetooth keyboard (the white full sized one) that Im trying to connect to my older Mac Pro (3 Ghz Dual Core) via a usb dongle. I have died two different dongles with no success. I have two of these keyboards and still no luck, though, I can connect them to my powerbook just fine.
    Id like to use them but want to know what usb bluetooth dongle I should get or if there is something I can do software wise to make it work.
    Thanks!

  • I cannot locate my "sent" mail since I changed to Exchange program in my apple email?

    In my Apple mail I recently converted to Outlook 365 Exchange program. I have two email programs, Apple and Yahoo. Since I converted to this email program, when I send an Apple email, I cannot find the "sent" emails anywhere? I can pull up the Yahoo "sent" emails but not the others. I'm wondering if this could be due to something in my settings?
    Thank you.

    Yeah, Comcast didn't bother testing that new interface properly with Firefox, so it is a "Mozilla problem". They did the same thing two years ago with the last major re-design of their web mail interface, but they fixed it a little faster then.
    The Xfinity Connect Lite interface works properly in Firefox 6.0, so you need to open Preferences > General near the top of that page and switch to the Connect Lite version. See the screenshot below.

  • Does Apple offer battery replacement programs for older generation ipods?

    Hi, I was wondering if they offer the service for a 5.5g 80gb ipod. If they do, would they replace it with another 5.5g 80gb ipod? If they don't, I will hate the company since I got my ipod for less than 2 years and the battery is almost completely dead.

    I was wondering if they offer the service for a 5.5g 80gb ipod.
    Yes they do have the service but it's far cheaper to go somewhere else (ipodresq.com or ipodjuice.com) or do it yoursself.
    If you really want Apple to do it (~$60 vs. ~$20 DIY), go here -> https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do
    If they do, would they replace it with another 5.5g 80gb ipod?
    No, they would replace your battery and send you the same iPod back.
    If they don't, I will hate the company
    What are you, 13?

  • Does Apple have an exchange program for broken I pod touch?

    I've heard that Apple will accept a broken I pod and replace it for a charge, is that true?
    If so, how do you do it?

    If you destroy your iPod, nobody can be held responsible for that but you alone.

  • Does Apple have a trade-in program for 2009 iMac (to purchase a brand new iMac or Mac Pro?

    I have an Apple iMac11,1 with 16Gb memory, 2 Tb drive, Superdrive, QuadCore 2.8 I7 processor, ATIU Radeon HD 4850 Graphics board with 512 VRam.   I'm considering a new computer (either a new i7 iMac or the MacPro desktop) and was wondering if there is a used market within this community or if Apple has a trade-in program for older iMac's.    Does anyone know?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    There's no a trade-in program, but if you recycle it, you will get an Apple Gift Card with the value of the iMac that you can use to buy a new Mac at an Apple Retail Store or the Apple Online Store > http://www.apple.com/recycling

  • Question on Battery Exchange Program

    Hello,
    I've got a MacBook Pro (bought it in 2006, USA). Battery stopped working right a month ago. Battery status says "Battery is not charging". The serial number of battery and MacBook Pro do fit the "15-inch MacBook Pro Battery Exchange Program" — https://support.apple.com/macbookpro15/batteryexchange/
    However, I can't find my country in the list for new batteries to be shipped to. I'm living in Yekaterinburg, Russia.
    Please, add Russia to the list so I could exchange my battery. Or please tell me where should I go to exchange it. I couldn't find any information about official Apple centre in Russia on this website.
    Regards,
    Ilya

    Welcome to the Forums, Ilya!
    Interesting: Russia is not in the pop-up list of countries, even when accessed from the Cyrillic language version of the battery exchange page!
    Contact AppleCare at the following number:
    495 5809557 pstn (local rate for Moscow, national rates for others)
    (Worldwide support contact numbers are on this page.)
    Hope this helps...

  • Battery failure although my battery doesn't fit the exchange program?

    hello there!
    i know there have been a lot of threads about the battery life and failures in the macbook pro but i don't know which one fits my case...
    my mbp is a week 13 and has no problems at all. i don't use the battery that often - by now i have 14 cycles.
    my battery's serial number doesn't fit the exchange program but today happened this odd thing:
    i used my mbp on battery for less than two hours and the battery symbol said that i still have about 50 minutes of battery power. all of a sudden it turned off (as described in many other threads) without any warning and i couldn't turn it on without plugging in the power cable. when i turned it on it started from deep sleep mode (dimmed desktop).
    ...of course i did reset the pram and stuff - but what is going on? as i said i don't meet the exchange program for faulty batteries but still it doesn't seem to work proper.
    what can i do?
    thanks in advance, guys!
    j.

    hi and thank you all for your replies so far!
    over the weekend i took some screenshots showing the various total of mAh. i have no idea if that is normal like this? and the battery is behaving normal again, no random shutdown... you can find the images under the following link...
    http://www.propaganda-pixel.de/mbp/mbp.htm
    in addition i added a photo of my magsafe... now that it comes to the battery issue i got slightly concerned if this crimpy cord should be like this (not that this thing starts to melt on me!).
    when i transport my mbp i wind the cord around those two hooks and i never pull the magsyfe by the cord out. but still it looks like this.
    the power cord is from a week 10 macbook pro which i got exchanged for a week 13 but i had to keep the cord...
    i know, this has nothing to do with the battery issue and no, i'm not paranoid - just now that i started this thread i thought i could add it...
    so my questions are:
    - shall i request a new battery considering the various mAh indications?
    - shall i request a new power cord? or does mine look normal?
    why i ask is because i don't want to request something when there is no need for a replacement.
    thank you all!

  • Charger exchange program

    Nokia has today initiated a charger exchange program for the AC-3E and AC-3U models, manufactured between June 15, 2009 and August 9, 2009; and the AC-4U model, manufactured between April 13, 2009 and October 25, 2009.
    More information is available in:
    http://chargerexchange.nokia.com

    I picked this up on a BBC news report this morning which advised checking on Nokia's website.  BUT first of all, it took some searching to track down the specific - and separate - website for the charger exchange scheme. At this moment, that site is NOT sign-posted from Nokia's main site.  That's poor customer care ...
    Second, just how many people have any idea what is the model number of their charger?  It took some squinting with a bright light and a magnifying glass eventually to identify mine.  There's no indication on the Nokia charger exchange site of what model of phones the affected chargers are intended to work with.  Believe me, that's what every users will know, not the charger model number. It could help allay a lot of unnecessary concern if that information was provided up-front.
