Apple TV is updated to version 6.0.1

Apple TV update

Apple's multimedia entertainment center, the Apple TV, has received a new tonight software update, specifically the version 6.0.1. For weeks it had been rumored that the Cupertino company would present a new Apple TV model at Keynote last Tuesday, but these predictions were not correct, this model being more than acceptable for the company at the moment since it meets all the requirements at the hardware level to be up to date.

This update appears after a few days full of software news for Apple devices, Mavericks for Macs, iOS 7.0.3 for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch and now the turn of Apple's little black box. According to Apple's update page regarding the new Apple TV software, it says that version 6.0.1 includes «overall performance improvement and stability improvements«. Perhaps also to make it more compatible with the new version of iOS and the shared screen mode Airplay from OSX Mavericks.

We remember that the last update of the Apple TV occurred in September following the publication of iOS 7 for the iPhone and iPad. That version added support for iTunes Radio (Depending on the country where it is available), ICloud AirPlay and the new synchronization and subscription functionality of Podcasts. Apple added this Tuesday via OTA to the device a new media channel called iMovie, this new channel is designed to work in conjunction with a new feature in the Mac and iOS versions of the recently updated software in the iLife suite, iMovie, which allows users to share clips and videos seamlessly between all your Apple devices that have the app installed.

Contrary to the previous software update, the new update runs perfectly without any problem such as the one that happened with the update corresponding to the release of iOS 7 that mysteriously bricked our Apple TV, making it necessary to restore them from the factory. The update is available through the Apple TV over-the-air update mechanism via Settings> General> Software update. Surely this update hides something else not commented on by the company, if you find something 'new' leave us a comment.

    It would be more realistic….
    "Being for the company a model without as many benefits as its iphone range and therefore not being updated until they find a way to sell us the same for double the money"

    hello, from the JB of the Apple TV3 there is no news, right? I'm afraid it will never be possible to get the most out of my ATV3.
    regards

    Hello, I "only" want the apple tv to access my imac from my living room and watch movies, etc. Do you advise me to buy the apple tv 3 even if there is no JB?
    Thank you!

      I use it exclusively for airplay and renting a movie in HD (2-3 a year) does its job perfectly.

      This can be done by accessing your itunes library on your imac, putting it in share mode, with which you transfer movies to itunes and access from appletv.
      Also from the imac with a program like airfoil, everything you are playing on your imac can be reproduced on the appletv, with which you can connect to pages like grooveshark, create a music list and play it on the television.

        But I had heard that by mirroring I could see all the contents without problems and without having to transform the mkv, avi files, etc. for itunes..no? is that if it is not a bit stick ...

        1.    Alex Molina said

          I am not very clear about that. I'll look at it, but yeah, the only pain in the neck is converting it to mp4. Anyway with the airfoil you can view the movie on the computer and watch it on the appletv.

            In principle with Mavericks the subject would have to be fine, like a double screen.

    Hello, I am from Chile and I have the AppleTv3 for 2 months. Everything had worked fine until I updated.

    I have problems with the Software update, it installed without problems, but when I entered my ID and synchronized everything, it asked me to accept the Terms and Conditions, returning to that same page all the time.
    I press "Accept" and then it returns to the same page of terms and conditions.

    How can I solve that?

    Thank you very much
