 Apple TV--turning it off?
We just installed our Apple TV yesterday. I noticed that the cute little machine does not have a power button. Is it meant to be left on 24/7, or is there a way to turn it off, and if is, what? And if not, let's say I want to move it to another outlet. Do I just unplug it while it's on? Isn't this supposed to be bad for Unix machines? Alra111

Just installed one last week and yes no power button supposed to be on all the time so to sync automatically to iTunes. AFAIK unplugging it is the only way to turn it off wort case scenario it might reset it. hope it helps

You can put it to sleep by holding the play button on the remote for about 5 seconds. There's no way to shut it off properly such that the system completely shuts off.

There is also a "standby" / "sleep" option in the Settings menu.
