Apple Now Lets You Migrate and Merge Apple Account Purchases

Excellent! Now when will Shaw have one of this? I am getting impatient!!
EXACTLY! I’ve been asking the same thing for months!
Shaw Sucks. Behind on technology and consumer offerings. Very poor customer service and tech support. I will be switching!
That’s funny. I would have said the exact same thing about Telus! Shaw’s TV maybe a little behind the others, but their internet is infinitely better then Telus, Rogers or Bell. And that’s why I’ll stick with ’em…
Shaw’s internet is definitely superior, but for now Telus isn’t too bad. We had some initial speed issues and had to get a tech over to switch over to a newer modem.
We’re using our Apple Extreme via the router they provide.
Same here. I got rid of everything Telus I had a couple years ago. Shaw is far superior and I have had no problems with their customer service. Their internet is waaaaaay better than Telus and I like these new gateway units.
We switched from Shaw to Telus a year ago. This app is awesome!
Didn’t Shaw get some new PVRs? The news ones might get this functionality soon I bet.
Do you have an AppleTV Gary? My buddy told me that if you have Telus Optik Internet and TV, you can’t stream video over WiFi with the router they make you use. Do you know if that’s true?
Ya, I stream video from PC to PS3 via WIFI just fine. no problems
Yes I do. I stream video to Apple TV via AirVideo and AirPlay. It has worked amazingly well for me.
I have the same issue with my Optik TV router. Looks like Bonjour or Zeroconf doesn’t work on the Telus router. Airplay won’t work for some reason.
Gary, I think it’s great you switched to a Vancouver-based corporation entrenched in the community. I know a lot of computer science guys from UBC/SFU who ended up getting jobs at the “Boot” in Burnaby.

Looks like it’s on the way for Shaw Gateway users….
The Telu Optik app sucks. Missing channels and doesn’t work at all lately. Lets face it bothnShaw and Telus have issues and marketing plans, some good and some not. Pick your devil and go with it. Competition is good!
The new update caused my Optik TV to crash all the time. It was working PERFECTLY before the update yesterday….I wish I could remove the update!!!!
