This would be a 4th gen. The previous user should have restored it so you could set it up as new. I assume they included the remote, which would be needed to set it up. If you are unable to get to the main menu screen then you will need to connect it to your computer so you can restore it (see below)
- If you have an Apple TV HD and a PC with iTunes or a Mac with macOS Mojave or earlier:Disconnect the power and HDMI cables from Apple TV. Connect one end of a USB-C cable (sold separately) to Apple TV and the other end to your computer. Open iTunes on your computer, select Apple TV in the Source list, then select Restore. If that doesn’t work, contact Apple TV Support.
- If you have an Apple TV HD and a Mac with macOS Catalina or later: Disconnect the power and HDMI cables from Apple TV. Connect one end of a USB-C cable (sold separately) to Apple TV and the other end to your computer. Open the Finder on your computer, select Apple TV in the sidebar, then select Restore. If that doesn’t work, contact Apple TV Support.
