Hmmm.... Is your XBMC build up to date?
i think so i did what it's said here - http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=XBMC_for_Mac_on_Apple_TV

it download it automatically
You probably have a folder structure like this "skin/Aeon/Aeon". I did that with Mediastream by accident.
yes
you are right thanks
can someone tell me how to actually add a skin to xbmc on appletv? total noob here
Drop your skins in /Users/frontrow/Library/Application Support/XBMC/skin . If it's a zip file or something, unzip it in the directory.
sorry for my high noob levels but how do i actually place that in that specific directory? is that on the appletv? if so how do i get to that?
I feel really bad for asking this, as I'm sure it's been answered, but I'm not sure how I would add a new skin to my Apple TV. I imagine it has something to do w/ SSH (which I know next to nothing about).

If someone could help me out or at least push me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Install new skin

1) sftp (ssh file transfer protocol) into apple tv.
server/host=ip port=22
user=frontrow password=frontrow

apps
windows-filezilla
OSX - cyberduck

2) browse to "/Applications/XBMC.app/Contents/Resources/XBMC/skin"

you may need to browse back a few times to get into the root dir

3) just drop them there and restart XBMC if it was running

4) in XBMC goto system->settings->appearance to change skins
