Similar to Apple TV 7.1, the Apple TV 7.2 beta 2 software is only available for Apple TV 3rd generation (Model numberĀ A1427 – AppleTV3,1 – MD199LL/A) and 3rd generation rev a (Model numberĀ A1469 – AppleTV3,2 – MD199LL/A).

Apple TV 7.2 beta 2 build number 7506 About
Apple TV 7.2 beta 2 software comes along with the new iOS 8.3 beta 3. There are no obvious changes compared to Apple TV 7.1 and Apple TV 7.2 beta 1.Ā I tested it right now and I can confirm it for my Acer Aspire 1810T running on Windows 8.1 Pro and my MacBook Pro 13” retina (End 2013) running on Mac OS X 10.10.3 Yosemite beta 3.

After updating, the Apple TV software version shown is 7.2 (7506), the build number was 7504 on Apple TV 7.2 beta 1.Ā Hijacking Trailers app, iMovie Theatre and WSJ app works on Apple TV 7.2 beta 2 software.
Re-installation of the ‘trailer.cer’ profile:
If you want to install Apple TV 7.2 beta 2 software for the very first time, there is the need to restore your Apple TV, meaning all added profile were deleted. Hence, re-install the certificate file to get PlexConnect running again. I used the same certificate file I generated for Apple TV 6 software and installed the profile following ‘PlexConnect: Installling Certificates On Apple TV Without USB‘. Finally, I configuredĀ the DNS of the Apple TV 3 to the IP address of my Plex Media Server according to the GitHub DNS configuration guide and PlexConnect works as good as before the update. If you are new to PlexConnect then follow the work around to get PlexConnect running on your Apple TV:
- For Mac OS X:Ā PlexConnect On Windows 8 And OS X 10.8.4: Plex Media Server On Apple TV 2 And 3 Without Jailbreak
- For Windows: Installing PlexConnect On Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 After Apple TV Update
Finally, I am very delighted that Plex, PlexConnect and OpenPlex are still running on the Apple TV 7.2 beta 2 software and Mac OS X 10.10.3 Yosemite beta 3 without any issues!
Stay tuned! š
