Apple TV and Cable shows

Been wanting to cut the cord to Cable TV as we're paying $70 plus a month for not much. I know there have been "skinny" packages offered with the new CRTC standards, but our Cable provider ends up charging more for the little we want. I as thinking of going with the Apple TV 4th Generation and seeing what kind of apps we can get to provide the Cable shows that we really want without the high monthly fee. HGTV is one of the networks my wife wants. I like a number of news networks. We're not into sports. Public TV as well (out of Detroit?). Is Apple TV able to pull through on these, or are we forever stuck with a cable provider?

Selling a great MacBook Pro 15": Install Mac OS Sierra?

I'm going to be selling a fantastic MacBook Pro 15" (2.6Ghz Quad Intel Core i7, 500GB SSD, 16GB RAM, new top and bottom case, AppleCare, etc.), and wondering: would a buyer want Mac OSX 11 El Capitan, or should I install Mac OS Sierra?

Tech Support Scam - How to protect the elderly???

So I got a call from my grandad and found out he had just been on the phone for an hour with "Apple" as a result of getting "Locked Out" of his computer. They tried to extort $700-$800 for an annual support plan or something but sounds like he didn't go for it.

My first instinct was to get the computer OFF because who knows what sort of remote access they could have going on. There was an app called LogMeIn Rescue that was preventing shut down so I guided him to force quit that and then shut down the computer until it could be taken to the Apple Store (or myself). I tried to get the number he called but he couldn't find it.

It's difficult to deal with this over the phone because he doesn't remember the last 30 seconds very well let alone the last hour. I have no idea what they were doing during this hour long phone call. Was it all just discussing support plans and payment options with the goal of extorting $700 or were they digging around in his computer or convincing him to reveal passwords, etc? He's already called his bank to get his accounts frozen.

How do we protect our elderly from these threats???

For Sale Unlocked iPhone 6 Plus, 128GB, Space Grey

I've now transitioned to my Jet Black iPhone 7 Plus, so selling my 6 Plus. Excellent condition, all original boxes and packaging materials included. EarPods, charger and USB cable are unused and still in protective wrap (I had a dock for charging).

Factory unlocked, purchased from the Rideau Apple Store on launch weekend of 2014.

One small scuff on a corner (see photo), but no other signs of wear.

Asking $650. Would prefer a local sale in Ottawa, but would consider shipping for a few dollars and prepayment.

Thanks for looking!

Was checking out AnyTrans today as a alternative to iTunes for working with files and whatnot on my iPhone. Can get it for $20 US right now. The reveiws out there seem to be favorable. Anyone here ever use it and what could you comment on?
