i have not been successful with installing nitotv to my apple tv 1st generation. i was able to hack the appletv and i have installed boxxe and xbmc. after i was i was also able to successfully install remote hd. one tutorial instructed to do the following [Go to Software Menu -> 3rd Party. Notice there’re only 4 options available. Select “Check for Updates”, and wait patiently. There should be a progress bar or some animation going on the screen but no, it’s a strange blind wait. Nevetheless, you’ll notice there’ll be a whole lot more stuffs after checking for updates is done. Once that happens, scroll down and select “nitoTV”and install it. Reboot ] i did that and after selecting the 3rd party option my apple tv just rebooted itself.

i searched another option with instructions on how to use my macbook and the terminal option. that has not worked either. often resulting in errors that said the operation timed out or that that it was not recognized..
could someone offer me some help please::::::::::::::::?

This is so frustrating. It is not obvious to everyone how “SSH” into their Apple TV – and I find myself chasing message boards and incomprehensible posts on Awkward TV to try and figure it out. Now this article link doesn't work.

Can anybody help a newbie out. Just got an ATV fresh out the box – new software. Just want to add Boxee to it. I've made the patchstick – loaded it unto ATV and am stuck at the part where I need to “launch” the software.

Is there a “For idiots” guide for this stuff?

designer eve gowns, you’d bridal dressesdearer to shop at a high-end boutique or section depot. If you cause nope former pick, go to net frequent, only if you are corrupting a vintage dress, you must measure your size according to the measure fact from the web shop. Or if you have enough time, you can take a custom-tailor.

I think that this is a known issue and the problem is being worked on. There is a discussion on this topic at the ATV-USB Creator forums: https://code.google.com/p/atvusb-creator/issues/…

Ok, everything is going perfectly fine & I'm getting the software menu. Nothing happens when I click any of the options though? I'm running 3.1. What am I doing wrong here? I've followed these directions like 20 different times.

Thanks guys,

JD
