Apple has released a new version of the popular iTunes software for both Windows and Mac systems, version 7.1.1. The new version addresses some compatibility issues and minor bugs. The big news is this version gets ready for a new Apple TV service due to arrive later this month. This was the first update for me that utilized the Apple Updater feature and did not push me to the Apple website for the download.
You can check your iTunes version by opening iTunes, clicking on “Help” and then clicking “About iTunes”. You should see a version number beginning “7.1.1″. It is highly recommended to keep programs up-to-date. If you do not have the current version, with your computer connected to the internet, click “Help” and then “Check for Updates” or visit: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/.
Apple TV is a set-top box for your television that allows you to transfer video (movie, TV, etc.) downloads from iTunes for viewing on a television. Think of it as an iPod for your television. It also supports music playback through the television and photo slideshows. Cost is $299.00 for the hardware. There is no cost to transfer your videos, pictures, music, etc. and the device supports wireless connections for data transfer. For more information on the Apple TV hardware & service see: http://www.apple.com/appletv/.
