Apple TV: Arranging icons on the main menu
Rearranging icons
You can rearrange the order of most of the icons on the Apple TV’s main menu (Podcasts, Radio, Netflix, Trailers, and so on). Note: You cannot move or rearrange the icons in the top row (Movies, TV Shows, Music, Computers, and Settings).
To change where an icon appears on the main menu:
- Select the icon you want to move
- Press and hold Select on the remote
- When the icon begins to jiggle, use the remote to move the icon to a new position
- Press Select again to finish
You can repeat these steps to move other icons.
Hiding icons
You can use Parental Controls to hide icons on the Apple TV’s main menu.
To show or hide icons:
- Select Settings > General > Parental Controls
- Scroll down and select either Show or Hide as desired

Jon Abrams’ Blog: iOS “Open in Chrome” Bookmarklet
Today Google released Chrome for iOS (for free).
Already it’s pretty clear that it’s a much better browser than iOS’s default Safari browser. Unfortunately, even if you want to use Chrome, clicking a link in any other iOS app will launch Safari.
My current workaround is this bit of javascript…
You can sort of set Chrome as the default web browser without Jail-breaking with this tip.
Turn off the Display brightness on your Mac with the keyboard.
It’s that easy, to turn on again, just hit ESC or touch the Trackpad or Mouse.
