Re: Migrate to new Apple TV


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hello Bob

Yes, i did try that ¡­ it automatically downloads and install the same apps I have on the other (older) Apple TV and they appear in the same order on the home screen.?

Bu I have to log ind to each of them. And A couple of them, Nexflix and 2 other apps, ask me to type in my password. The username is already there (my Apple ID), I only need to type the password. However, for those 3 apps the username/Apple ID ?is not my email addresse but my wifes ¡­ and i can¡¯r seem o change it. The only thing it allows me to doi ?is to type a password.

Which is why IO searched for a way to clone the old Apple TV or af way to transfer everyting including settimgs and accounts.?

Alternatively .. how do I change the Apple ID Netflix suggests??

:-)

Peter

I asked Google Bard this question and got this answer:

Yes, you can save all your choices when you move from an old Apple TV to a new Apple TV. Here are the steps you need to follow:

1. On your old Apple TV, go to **Settings > Users and Accounts > iCloud**.
2. If prompted, sign in to your Apple ID account.
3. Turn on **One Home Screen**.
4. Set up your new Apple TV.
5. When you sign in to your Apple ID account on the new Apple TV, it will automatically download your apps and rearrange your Home screen to match what's on iCloud.

**Note:** This feature is only available on Apple TV 4 or later. Older Apple TVs didn't use the App Store, so there's no way to transfer apps or settings from them to a newer device.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind when transferring your Apple TV settings:

* You will need to be signed in to the same Apple ID on both the old and new Apple TVs.
* Make sure that you have enough iCloud storage space to store your apps and settings.
* If you have any custom settings or configurations that are not stored in iCloud, you will need to manually recreate them on the new Apple TV.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Bob
