Surprised there isn't a thread already, but i'm pretty surprised they've actually done this, it seems like a strange move to me. Article on it here. http://www.forbes.com/sites/quora/2014/05/15/was-apple-buying-beats-a-mistake/ Anyone got any ideas as to why Apple have made a decision to buy...

I'm looking at being able to stream movies and get more channels. Apple TV seems the likely choice at the minute but I know naff all about it. If I wanted to stream movies from my iPad i.e Cartoon HD would Gen1 be ok or worth going for a Gen 2/3? Jailbroken devices, worth it? If so how I do...

Just bought myself a new monitor, and it has some USB ports on it that I'd quite like to utilise to I can effectively use the monitor as a dock without having to connect everything else to my MacBook. I'm currently connecting to the monitor via HDMI, which doesn't then allow use of the USB...

Has anyone on here actively used an Apple TV for extending their desktop? I currently have dual monitors with a PC. I bought a MacBook a few months ago, and I like to idea of going to single 27" monitor in 2560 res. My plan was to effectively use an Apple TV as a wireless HDMI, but I was...

I'll keep this short. For those who are familiar with the App - what a great bit of kit . What I want to know is , has anyone who has the App ever had the Rev counter and gauges on the bottom right of the video screen working in either a 172-182. 1998-2005 My thoughts are steering towards a...

Recently my netflix on my AT3 has become near useless. When you select netflix it takes ages to load up, when it does and you select one of the options it will sit on the "accessing" loading screen. Then when i select a programme to watch it just wont load. The spinner just goes round and...

Has anyone on here spent any time messing about with Apple TV 1/2 alternatives? They're going for around £170+ now on eBay, so trying to get the same sort of functionality on the cheap. Raspberry Pi seems to be the best alternative, but doesn't fully support Airplay; won't work from a Macbook...

I put this up for sale on Saturday knowing that 2nd Gen Apple TV's are worth more than they were new and thought I may as well sell mine. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201037416110?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649 I'm quite shocked at the interest in it though, I've had 4...

Anybody else had this? "Unfortunately, Your online access has been blocked." Looks like a genuine email but the sender's address and a hyperlink aren't apple.com. Didn't click the link but opened iTunes and it's all working fine.

Anybody got it ? I fancy getting it but not sure if it'll be worth while as I also have sky on demand. Any opinions will be appreciated

Here is my ad for my Apple iPhone 5s 16 GB Silver/White (EE) which is an Unwanted Upgrade. It has never been used and i'm looking for £450. http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/apple-iphone-5s-16-gb-silverwhite-ee-brand-new-unwanted-upgrade/1043151296

Hi guys, my iPhone 5S battery is knackered. Noticed it depleting at a rate of about 10% per hour when just sitting there doing nothing. Left night I left it charged and woke in the morning to a completely dead phone :( firstly, anyone else had this!? Secondly... unfortunately I can't actually...

Hi guys, Any of you guys going to be going wild on Friday? :@) Thanks, G.

Yo! Managed to secure myself Applecare (iMac) from eBay last weekend while I was extremely drunk. Didn't realise I bought it until it turned up today (looks like I paid £55 for it). Looks completely legit (sealed etc), however, it looks to be of German origin??? Million dollar question is...

So.... How much discount do students actually get?

For some reason now my Apple TV doesn't show all my movie purchase. They was all under the purchased tab then some disappeared but when search in the store it still just said play so I assumed it was only showing movies bought on Apple TV in purchases and others you had to search the store for...

Ok here we go. My iPhone 5 and ipad 4 were working ok and receiving my emails with no issues. But since last night on both devises I get the 'cannot get mail' the connection to the server failed. i have not changed any settings on either of them btw. The strange bit is my phone receives the...

I was just wondering if any one on here has or has ever had an Apple MacBook Pro, if so in your opinion do you think they are worth the price tag? Compared to many other laptop they are far more expensive but I've always wanted one and now I've looked into it I want to be sure they are worth the...

Looks like my 1st generation Apple TV's hard drive has died. Before I take it apart and pop a new hard drive in is there any other "upgrades" I should look at doing? any idea where I can get the software from and how to install it too? ​all I can find is cloning the old drive, but mine is no more.

Has anyone got one of these? http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/laptops-netbooks/ipad-tablets-and-ereaders/apple-ipad/apple-ipad-accessories/apple-digital-av-adapter-11627371-pdt.html I just got one so that I can watch stuff from my 4S on my tv. It's working but it doesn't fill up the whole tv...

Ok so I'm looking at replacing my home router and was considering the Apple models. Are they any good? Do they offer any additional features over a normal router to Apple users. We have quite a few apple devices that would be connecting to it.

I've been offered a new 3rd gen Apple TV for £50, which (and I'm not completely sure why) I'm tempted by. Am I right in thinking I can use it with my Netflix and iTunes account as a streaming system? Does it have iplayer etc built in too?

Hi, My router at home supplied by PlusNet is pants. I was considering getting an ubiquiti router and a couple of unify devices for my home wifi, being a nerd. However, did not realise Apple had released a new Airport Extreme, so considering that possibly...

Does anyone know if you can walk into an Apple store and get an iPhone repaired? In this case, a smashed rear glass panel on an iPhone 4. Doesn't really sound like something they'd do, but perhaps someone knows for definite?

Last weekend, me and a few others off here took the trip North to the Applecross/Skye area of Scotland. We met in Fort William on the Friday evening with the rain coming in at full force giving the distinct impression that summer had finally arrived. We drove on the A87 North of Fort William to...

Right, this all stemmed from me looking for a good dock for my Galaxy S2; I had a gander at some threads around here and stumbled upon some people talking about the Belkin Tunebase, because it offered a good alternative to mounting a dock to the windscreen or over a vent. This product seems very...

Hello East Midlands people. The folks down at the Griffin's Head put on a classic/sports car show from May-September on every 1st/3rd Wednesday. My mate, my wife and I went down this week to check it out, and there were a lot of great cars on show, from Mk1 & 2 Escorts, to Peugeot 205 GTIs, to...
