Updating CC for FT

At least in my experience, TV's don't need to be updated. Once you select "watch," you'll have the option to get a movie and appropriate enthusiasm is gained from watching. The menus just aren't identical to non-CC TV's, but all the functions seem to be there eventually.
But without updating pie menu, you cannot Tinker TV to gain Mechanical enthusiasm. At least it was that way for Teen TV that EAxis forgot to update.

As for updating computers, I've attached a file with the needed updates. Just open the computer mesh you want to update in SimPe. Then, select TTAB from the resource list on the left. Right click on "untitled tree table" in the resource list and select replace from the menu. Replace it with the ComputerTTAB.simpe from my files. Say yes when SimPe wants to reload it. Repeat for the TTAs (replace the [Pie Menu Strings] with the provided ComputerTTAs.simpe). Save and test in game, you should have all the new options available.
This is exactly what I needed, thank you. :)

That seems to be the case with every object that should allow tinkering. You cannot tinker with cc showers, either.

Good point. I'd forgotten that the little experimenting I'd done with tinkering seemed to mean "break horribly and hurt myself if at all possible," so I decided not to update for that particular functionality. Not like appliances and plumbing don't break on a regular enough basis anyway...
Since I haven't actually tested it, I'll refrain from putting up instructions on fixing TV's but from Lord Darcy's statement, it sounds like they need TTAB and TTAs replaced as well?
I'm all for bribing JFade for an automatic updater. I'm in for some semi-precious metals and a computer power supply that doesn't fit my computer. ;)

There is a simpler way to update computer. Like bookcase, just changing the Object Data is enough in FT. No need to extract and replace pie menu.
Object Data > RAW Data > Select Decimal > 07. Resource cross-refs > Interaction Table ID 128 -> 129. Commit and save.
Edit: Forgot the step of changing hex to decimal, sorry.
Edit: There is an additional step to make custom computers fully compatible with Uni.
As for TV, you must replace Pie Menu (TTAB, TTAs) and Slot File (SLOT). Without replacing SLOT, pets can't watch TV to gain fun.
To extract resources, you must select the correct type of TV on which your custom TV is based.
For the 1-tiled floor TV, there is an additional BHAV added by later EP. I'm not sure what it does, but I extracted and added it just in case. Don't forget to change the Group to 0xFFFFFFFF.
