Hi, How about I explain a little detail about the Apple TV to clarify:
1. There's no need to connect your Apple TV directly with a USB cable other than to restore it. 2. Your Apple TV connects either wirelessly via WIFI or with an ethernet cable in order for it to access content from your computer. There is no way to add content to this model of Apple TV as it simply accesses all its content from your Mac's iTunes Library. It has no internal storage at all other than what is used for the OS. If your Apple TV 2 does, for whatever reason, require a restore, follow these steps: • Unplug all cables fromt he unit. • Connect a Micro USB-B cable to the Apple TV and the other end to your Mac. • In iTunes, you should now be able to click the Restore. • Let it do its Restore and subsequent updates. • After this has completed, disconnect the USB cable and connect your power and HDMI connection to your TV. • Setup your Apple TV including connection to your WIFI or ethernet network and connection to your Macs iTunes Library. HTH. Later...
