The apple tv doessn't replace your cable box. It just offers you more entertainment options such as renting/purchasing movies and tv episodes/series, listening to radio stations, buying or watching movies from netflicks an many other options.

I did get the hdmi cable or howevery ou spell it; I have 3 ports on the tv to choose from, not sure which to use though. I didn't think there was a battery in the remote but I got a sighed friend to look at that and she said there is. So given that there is one maybe I need to work with it some more. I am still a bit confused a bout how it works on the tv in conjunction with cable, does it overide the box, do I need to switch menus on the tv? Patti On 5/22/2014 2:57 PM, Larry Lumpkin wrote: > Hi.
