izes each, including details on what they cost and how to access them. Apple often adds and
removes content options, so this list is subject to change. Some apps, such as iTunes Festival
and Apple Events, are seasonal.

they're subject to change without notice.
Learn the Main Menu
The Apple TV main menu ( Figure 17 ) seems self-explanatory, but I want to bring to your at-
tention a few subtle aspects of how it works:
• What's up, dock: Thetoprow,whichincludesMovies,TVShows,Music,iTunes
Radio,andComputers,actsasadockfortheAppleTV.Thesecontentoptionsare
always on screen, even as you scroll down.
• Moving apps: You can move any app icon that isn't in the dock. To do so, select
theiconandthenholddownSelectuntiltheiconshakes.Usethedirectionalcom-
mands to move the icon, and press Select when finished.
• Hiding apps: Althoughthere'snofeatureforhidingappsbecauseyoudon'tlike
them, or don't have time for them, you can effectively hide an app by restricting
it. See Enable Restrictions (Parental Controls) .
• Keep it quiet: The Apple TV plays a clicking sound as you scroll through the
menus and apps. If this bothers you, turn it off in Settings > Audio & Video >
Sound Effects.
