Unfortunately, the Apple TV box (2nd or 3rd generation) [A1378, A1427, A1469] from 2010–2013 do not support iCloud services anymore. iCloud services have since changed beyond what these models Apple TV box can do. You can keep using the remaining functionality, but for iCloud services (music, podcasts, photos through iCloud), you will need a newer model now.
