Copy the Application directory to: ~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Project Templates/AppleTV Now, when you create a new project in Xcode you will have an option for AppleTV Application. After you create a new ATV application using this template, you must set the IP or hostname of your apple tv in the target's build setting under ATV_ADDRESS. This bundle is derived from Michael Gile's work: http://mgile.com/post/10202555713/atvhelloworld-appletv2-1-click-build-and-deploy-xcode If you modify this template and would like to update your system's template, run: ./update_template
