Hi
Slight correction, press the menu button three times to enable VoiceOver for first
time set up. You can also set it this way as an accessibility shortcut in
settings>general>accessibility.

Hi Terri,
I think you will enjoy your new Apple TV, I know I bought the exact same one
and I love it.
As for the remote, below the gesture area, from the top left going down, you
have the Menu, Siri and Play/Pause buttons. From the top right going down, you
have the Home button and below that is the Volume Up and Down rocker.
To enable VoiceOver, simply press the Play/Pause button three times and after a
few tries, VoiceOver should begin speaking.
When inputting text, the keyboard is layed out a little diffrently with the
first row being the letters A to Z and the next row below being the numbers and
punctuation symbols. Below that row is buttons to toggle between lowercase and
uppercase letters, but if you press the Play/Pause button, this will do the
same.
You can also use Siri to dictate anything in an edit field, this also includes
passwords. Simply press and hold the Siri button and dictate. When you're
done, let go of the button and your text will be inputted.
While on the Home screen, you can even ask Siri, by pressing and holding while
you talk and letting go when your done.
You can always check on www.applevis.com for How To's on using the Apple TV. I
believe that David Woodbridge has quite a few podcasts on doing just about
anything on the Apple TV.
Hope this helps!

Subject: Got my new Apple TV, need a bit of help!
Hello everyone,
Well, I broke down and purchased my new Apple tv last night. I got the
32 gig model. I didn't mess with it last night though, because I just
wasn't feeling the best.
It's all open, and all hooked up now. It is a little chunkier, and
bigger. But I think I like that. I do like the remote much better,
because it too seems thicker, and maybe not as easy to lose. I lost one
once. LOL!
Now here is where I need some help please.
When I go to the input where the Apple tv is, nothing seems to happen.
On my older model, it asked about Voiceover.
So first of all, can someone kindly explain the layout of the buttons to
me, and what they are?
This would really be very helpful. I found the area for the gestures.
Now how can I get voiceover on?
Will I need sighted assistence for this?
I pushed a couple of buttons just to see what would happen. I don't know
if anything happened on the screen. But I heard some cute little noises.
LOL!
I decided to quit messing with it though, because I didn't want to mess
anything up.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Now I am kind of getting
excited about this thing. Although, I'm not really looking forward to
adding on all the apps I may want, or remembering passwords.
Thank you,
Terri
