Why does the latest version of Apple TV suck?

I still have my first Apple TV (1st gen) which is amazing.  I just bought the latest one at xmas.  It was working fine and then asked to be updated.  So, we updated it.  It won't work now.  It asks to be plugged in to iTunes.  And you need a new cable (micros USB)  to do so.  Why ruin something that worked?  Why?

Apple tv ***** big... Chrome cast is soon much better!!
My apple tv has decided to stop working (its only 1yr and 1month old, surprise, surprise...) and it says i have to plug it in to itunes on my mac but i haven't got any cables to plug it in to my mac..... What cable do i need? what do i do?
Ps: i have Macbook pro retina, ipad air 2 128gb , iphone 6plus 128 gb, imac 27", apple tv, 3tb time capsule...... and all my friends say i should switch to android, and i think there right, there chrome cast is SOOOO much better..... and im not trolling... apple can check my account and i have spent thousands, and thousands and thousands on altos stuff and its a pile of ......
if i have to pay for the cable tu plug my apple tv in to my mac i will throw it away and get a 30$ chrome cast (the same than what the apple cable will cost..)
I liked apple because it all went great, but now it just ***** and not the good type of *****, the kind of ***** that makes you think why did i spend SOOOOO much money on hardware that is as crappy as googles but much much much more expensive than google....
Cable? no cable? chrome cast? or just change my hole ecosystem?
Any suggestions ?

  • Why does the latest version of firefox crash on my windows 7 64 bit system? in English

    I've used Firefox forever, swear by it. The past few times I've installed the latest version, my computer comes to a SLOW crawl and CRASHES repeatably. I uninstall and re-install 3.6.24 and every thing works fine. I constantly get reminders that I'm using the older version and to update. I refuse to because it turns my system into a glorified paper weight. Any idea why this might happen?

    Sorry I didn't get a crash report. My computer would just come to a complete stand still. No reports, nothing. I've installed it at lease three times now, and each time it does the same thing. I have to do a hard reboot, uninstall and re-install the 3.6.24 version and it works fine. I posted the question to see if anyone else has experience the same problems. I could try it again to see if I get a crash report. I would have to do this over the weekend as I use this computer for my business.
    I appreciate your response and sorry I didn't have a report for you. I'll keep you informed as to what takes place when I try to re-install.
    Thanks again

  • Why does the latest version of iMovie not have an option of sharing with iDVD?

    How are you supposed to burn a DVD using the latest version of iMovie? I've always had the option to share to iDVD and now it's not there.

    It is there but you don't want to use it as it will degrade the quality of the movie.  Instead use the Share ➙ Media Browser option. 
    Then in iDVD go to the Media/Movies section and drag the movie into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones that may be there:

  • Why does the latest version of HP Support Assistant crash every time I try to use it?

    I have an HP 6730f desktop with Windows 7 preinstalled.  Recently, I was advised to upgrade the HP Support Assistant program by HP through an update message.  Upon doing so, I am unable to start the program without an error message that states that a serious problem has occurred and the program must close.  I have since uninstalled the program entirely. I would,  however, be satisfied with the Support Assistant that came with the computer, but wonder why the updated version does not work...?

    Hello PCJim,
    Have you tried reinstalling the program since uninstalling? It could of just been a bad install that required needing to uninstall / reinstall.

  • Why does the latest version of firefox insist flash player is out of date and blocks play back but it is the latest update

    Flash Player Plugin between 11.0 and 11.7.700.169 (click-to-play) has been blocked for your protection.this is what firefox tells me but when i check the add-ons manager it says version 15.0.0.239 is installed.how can i get firefox to recognize the right version

    The Plugin check is behind on what versions is current to check for so it is useless at moment until it is updated.
    This is because 15.0.0.2'''39''' is not the latest Firefox 15 version as there has been at least 15.0.0.2'''42''' which is on blocklist and 15.0.0.2'''46''' which is not on the blocklist as according to Adobe it is not affected.
    Flash Player Plugin 14.0 to 15.0.0.242
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/blocked/p798
    Flash Player Plugin 10.3.183.66 to 13.0.0.258
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/p794
    So for Windows and Mac 16.0.0.235, 13.0.0.25'''9''' ESR and
    15.0.0.24'''6''' are not vulnerable according to Adobe and are not on blocklist.
    '''philipp''' you need to update your posting for this as Mozilla made a two part blocklist on Friday so as to not block the 13.0.0.258 ESR version and your link is for one of the two blocklists for Win/Mac.

  • Why does the latest version of ITunes change all of my web based icons to ITunes programs and all of my desktop icons to the ITunes icons?

    when downloading itunes why all my web based programs change to itunes programs and all of the desktop icons change to itune icons?

    That's because iTunes is registering itself as the default application to open those kinds of files. I believe you can stop that behavior when you install it. To revert a file type's default handler you need to select it and select "Get Info" from the File menu and change the settings under "Open with:" to your desired application.

  • Why does the latest version of firefox come with so much spam software? Spent an hour uninstalling most of it. really annoyed. Loyal firefox user.

    just downloaded a new version of Firefox and it loaded a heap of background programs that produce stupid pop ups for PC cleanup tools and other nuisance pop-up crap? When did you make the decision to add this crap to your freeware??? Most annoying......

  • Why does the latest version continue to show CSS faults after they are corrected?

    After updating Firefox yesterday, I made an error with some css code and Firefox immediately picked it up (very helpful). After correcting the error, Firefox continues to show the error unless I validate the page and then re-open with Firefox. The same error is shown for every page in my local folder regardless of the fact that the error was never made on those pages. Is this new with the update, or am I unaware of a simple reset procedure? CSS Error: Unexpected end of file while searching for closing } of invalid rule set. My operating system is Windows 7. The problem not an issue for me unless I need to learn something about using Firefox.

    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
    * Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    * Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    * Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

  • Why does the new version not have back-up disc in the library file? And how do I fix it?

    Why does the new version of i-tunes not have back-up to disc in the library file? And how do I fix it?

    Fast backup for iTunes library  (Windows)
    Grab SyncToy  2.1, a free tool from MS. This can be used to copy your entire iTunes library (& other important data folders) onto another hard drive or network share. You can then use SyncToy periodically to synchronise or echo your library to the backup. A preview will show which files need to be updated giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the new or updated files will be copied saving lots of time.
    If your media is all organised below the main iTunes folder then you should also be able to open the backup library on any system running the same version of iTunes, regardless of the drive letter or path it appears on.
    Step-by-step guide to using SyncToy.

  • Does the latest version of Numbers have macros?

    Does the latest version of Numbers include the ability to create macros?  Thanks,

    Like any other app on the Mac in Numbers 3.0 you can do basic "GUI scripting" by which you can have AppleScript (placed in an Automator service or workflow or just as a "standalone" AppleScript) do the equivalent of clicking menu items and issuing keyboard commands like command-v and so forth.
    That can be convenient as far as it goes. You can attach the script to a keyboard shortcut and use it, for example, to insert the current date in a cell (something the designers forgot to include as a menu pick in the current version).
    But Numbers 3.0 doesn't have AppleScript support like the old version, where you could get the values from specific cells, do things with them in a macro-like script as powerful as you want to make it, and "push" the results to specified cells.
    Would be nice if they brought that functionality back.

  • Does the latest version of Numbers have anything like Excel's goal seek?

    Does the latest version of Numbers have anything like Excel's goal seek?  I frequently use goal seek to solve non-algebraic equasions for an unknown.  Thanks.

    I went through the installation where the bar shows the percentages downloaded and installed. Once it shows 100% it asks me to click Finish. I do. Then I go to yahoo to check and it continues to show that the plugin is missing and that I need to download Adobe Flash which I thought that I just did. Am I missing something in terms of installing??

  • HT204053 I have installed the latest version of Apple but still can't see ICloud in System Preferences- how can I fix this?

    I have installed the latest version of Apple but still can't see ICloud in System Preferences- how can I fix this?

    Lion is required to see the iCloud Preference Pane: this is an upgrade, not an update, and has to be paid for. If you want to install Lion, go to the Mac App Store and purchase and download it there ($29.99).
    First check that your Mac meets the requirements for Lion:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)

  • Why does the new version 5 of firefox show up all the graphics on web sites with a huge wide black border?

    Why does the new version 5 of firefox show up all the graphics on my web sites with a huge wide black border? They should be narrow and yellow!! I use iWeb for my web sites on an AppleMac iMac 22" wide screen.

    That is unfortunately a bug only in Firefox 5 and will be fixed in Firefox 6 (Aug).
