When you hear Apple TV you immediately think it is an actual TV that you are purchasing. But this is not the case. The Apple TV is actually a device that you will use to stream something a little similar to Amazon's Fire or Roku. It is a little black box that is about an inch and a half tall, just a little bit less than four inches, and it runs on a very similar platform to the iPad and the popular iPhones. You can download a list of apps and also games beyond the standard streaming video that you could get from Hulu, Netflix, Amazon, just to name a few. The Apple TV has been centered on various apps, and it is still able to stream multiple TV shows, movies straight to your HDTV, but this is just the tip of the iceberg on the features this box has been packed with. The box allows you to watch and stream podcasts, play your favorite game, stream your workout playlist, and much more. But what is important to note, to enjoy all these benefits this box is ready to provide it will all depend on the apps that you have installed. Some of the apps you will use are free, and some will cost. Think of it this way; the Apple TV is able to turn your TV into a Smart TV. You can either rent your favorite movies or merely stream your collection from your iTunes account. You could also stream movie shows from apps like Hulu Plus or Netflix; stream your music from the Pandora or Apple Music apps. I mean the list is endless on what the Apple TV can actually do for you. The Apple TV 4K has been designed with some of the fastest processors you could find, the same that powers the iPad Pro. The Apple TV box has been made to be as powerful as most laptops we use. It also has a fast graphics processor that has been designed with enough power that could turn the black box into a game console. Nothing sounds better than this. Apple has genuinely revamped the new generation, but this does not mean you have to throw away your older model, just the same thing they have been doing with iPhone. The third generation is still available in the market for you to purchase.

Apple Music is, to quote the company, "All the ways you love music. All in one place." In non-marketing lingo, Apple Music is built around two major components: iCloud Music Library, which combines your purchased music library and ripped tracks in one place; and the Apple Music streaming catalog, where you can find more than 10 million tracks from artists around the world. These two parts live side by side in the Music app: You can keep each separate by only streaming the Apple Music catalog, or you can add streaming songs to your offline Music library, where they can be mixed into playlists (offline or publicly shareable) or shuffled amongst the rest of your music. Apple Music also offers a massive recommendation and browsing area for its streaming catalog: As you listen to songs in the Music app, Apple collects data about your tastes and drops daily custom-curated playlists in the app for you to listen to, along with a weekly algorithmic "New Music" mix that suggests songs and artists you might like. You can also poke around the entire streaming catalog's array of new music, curated playlists, music videos, and more. Table of Contents Introduction 1. Signing up for Apple Music 2.

The new device, HomePod, offers an easy and amazing way for Apple users to enjoy AirPlay, Apple Music, and control their HomeKit devices from anywhere. HomePod was not created to be a competitor to Google Home or Amazon Echo, just as the MacBook Air was not designed to compete against the netbook. Of course, they do share a number of characteristics. For instance, the HomePod smart speaker can be voice-controlled and the MacBook Air is compact and lightweight. However, HomePod is just a $350 home assistant; much like the MacBook was a $200 laptop computer. The Fire Phone by Amazon was not much of a hit. Alexa, therefore, had to sell a lot so that Prime could stick into more people’s lives. This was a success, thanks to the priced-to-move Echo. Google, on the other hand, made a brilliant decision to follow in the footsteps because it has to satisfy its insatiable data thirst. When it comes to HomePod, something was a little different. The AirPod was designed to help you enjoy your favorite music on the go while HomePod was designed to help you enjoy your favorite music in a convenient way in your home. AirPods lacked wires and sufficient surface area for traditional buttons. Because of this, the Siri voice control was the only way to interact with the gadget (you have to be near the device).

The iOS 13 is the newest iOS version from Apple. This operating system continues with the optimization trend that started with the iOS 12. Everything is now more efficient and faster. The iPhone 11 has a Liquid Retina HD display. The resolution at 326 pixels per inch is 1792 x 828. According to Apple, this LCD is the most advanced. The display still supports Tap to Wake, True Tone, wide color, swipe-based gestures and other technology advancements by Apple. The contrast ratio is 1400:1 which makes it inferior to the Pro models. Haptic Touch: the 3D touch feature in the iPhone XR has been replaced by the Haptic Touch option. The A13 Bionic chip in the iPhone 11 is better than the A12 one in the iPhone XR. It is the fastest and most advanced for now.

Discover Apple's Music, TV, Podcasts, and Books apps Version 1.9, updated April 12, 2024 Are you bewildered with the apps that replaced iTunes in macOS? Befuddled by Apple Music? Do you want to customize the Music app sidebar? Wish you could organize your podcasts? Wondering what the difference is between loves and stars? In this book, Kirk McElhearn (author of three previous Take Control titles on iTunes, going back to 2010) explains not only how Apple's media apps work, but also how normal people can make the Music, TV, Podcasts, and Books apps do what they want. Starting in macOS 10.15 Catalina, Apple finally did away with iTunes. In its place are three new apps—Music, TV, and Podcasts—with audiobooks now handled by the Books app and syncing of mobile devices handled by the Finder. Where once iTunes was an all-purpose media hub, now you may use up to five apps to accomplish the same things. The new apps also add more features (while, sadly, removing a few things too). Take Control of macOS Media Apps is your guide to the post-iTunes world. Kirk McElhearn, whose earlier books on iTunes 10, 11, and 12 collectively sold nearly 14,000 copies, is back with a new book that shows you how to manage your music, videos, podcasts, and audiobooks in Catalina and later. Whether you just want to play your media, or you want to go deeper with special features like Genius, Shuffle, Playing Next, Apple Music, and iTunes Match, this comprehensive guide has the answers you need. Kirk also looks at various ways of bringing audio and video into Apple's media apps, tagging songs and videos so you can find them more easily later, creating playlists, sharing your library over a home network, and syncing media with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod. The book covers how to: • Play Music: Learn the basics of playing audio (and even music videos) in the Music app. You'll also find tips on making quick playlists with Genius and Playing Next, learn the best ways to search for the music you want to hear, stream music to other devices in your home, and view lyrics while tunes play. • Stream Music: Use Apple Music, a paid service, to listen to any of 100 million tracks. Or listen to live broadcasts from Apple Music Radio (including Apple Music 1). • View Your Music and Other Content: Learn how to use the sidebar, view your music library, and work with contextual menus in the Music app. • Store Your Music Library in the Cloud: What are the pros and cons of using the Sync Library setting to store your music in the cloud? How do Music and iTunes Match figure out whether to upload your music when that setting is enabled? You’ll get answers to these questions and more. • Use the iTunes Store: iTunes may be gone, but the iTunes Store is still open for business! Find tips on shopping in the iTunes Store, and get advice on sharing your purchases with family members and among your various Apple devices. • Tag Your Music: Tags are bits of information (also known as “metadata”) that can describe your media. Learn which tags to bother changing, the best ways to add lyrics and album art, how to rate songs with stars, loves, or both, and more. • Organize Your Music: Make a simple playlist of romantic songs, workout songs, or whatever theme you like. You’ll learn how to create smart playlists that, for example, comprise only your 5-star faves or only tunes you haven’t heard recently, and how to transfer playlists to the Apple Watch. You’ll also find help with operational issues like eliminating duplicates from your music library. • Manage and Share Media Files: Whether you want to casually share a playlist from your laptop when visiting a friend or you want to make all your media available on all your home’s computers, you’ll find out how Media Sharing and Home Sharing make sharing possible. You'll also learn how to manage massive media libraries and store media files on external drives. • Listen to Audiobooks: Discover how to download and play audiobooks in the Books app, and how to manage your audiobook library. • View Movies and TV Shows: Use the TV app (with or without the forthcoming Apple TV+ service) to watch videos, including those purchased or rented from the iTunes Store and those you add yourself. • Listen to and Watch Podcasts: You’ll be sampling and subscribing to podcasts in no time with Kirk’s advice, plus you’ll pick a method of syncing podcast episodes to your iPhone or iPad and even learn about creating your own podcast station. • Sync Media: You’ve put all your media on your Mac…now, how do you transfer it to a mobile Apple device such as an iPhone, an iPad, an old-school iPod, or an Apple Watch? And how do you use an Apple TV to enjoy the media on your Mac? Learn the best approach for your situation. • Rip, Burn, and Print: Add content to your media apps with Kirk’s detailed steps for “ripping” music CDs and audiobooks. Also learn how to burn music from Music onto a CD, and get directions for printing a song list—for example, to include in the jewel case of said CD. • Extend with AppleScript: Mac users can make the Music and TV apps do more with AppleScript. Learn about key AppleScripts that you can download to make your media apps jump through even more hoops.
