| Question= Sleep/Shutdown | |||
| Answer= | |||
*The Apple TV 2 does not have a real "sleep" or shutdown function. Even under the native Apple software, the unit is always powered on, and only fakes sleeping. There is no way to sleep or shutdown the Apple TV 2 without physically pulling the power. Given that the ATV2 uses only a few watts of power, the cost of running the unit 24/7 for a whole year is only a few dollars. Leaving it on does not damage the unit. | |||
