    • Connect audio and video cables to Apple TV and your widescreen TV
    • Connect Apple TV to your wireless or Ethernet network
    • Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer if you want to play content from your computer on Apple TV
    You can connect Apple TV to a widescreen TV that has:
    • An HDMI port, using an HDMI cable for both video and audio
    • Component video (Y, Pb, and Pr) ports, using a component video cable with green,blue, and red connectors, and an audio cable
    You can also connect Apple TV to a home theater receiver or to a TV that has a DVI port using an HDMI-to-DVI cable for video and an audio cable.

    Important:
    Before you plug Apple TV into a power outlet, carefully read all of the following installation instructions and the safety information in the included Important Product Information Guide



    Step 1:Connecting the cables

    Choose the setup that matches the ports on your TV or receiver.

    To connect a widescreen TV with an HDMI port:

    1. Connect one end of an HDMI cable to the back of your TV.
    2. Connect the other end to the back of Apple TV.
     If your TV’s HDMI port is being used by another device, or if your TV doesn’t have an HDMI port, you can connect to Apple TV using component video and audio.

    Step 2: Connect the power cord

    Plug one end of the power cord into the back of Apple TV and the other end into a power outlet.
    Important:

    Don’t place anything on top of Apple TV. Objects placed on top may cause interference with the wireless signal.

    Step 3: Turn on your TV and select the input

    The first time you use Apple TV, it takes you through a series of steps including choosing a language, selecting a network, configuring Apple TV to work with your network if necessary, and connecting to iTunes.

    Note: If you see just a black screen the first time you use Apple TV, make sure the input you’ve selected on your TV matches the input you’ve plugged the cables into on your TV or receiver. If the input matches, you might need to select a screen resolution your TV supports. See “Problem? No problem.” on page 27 and refer to the documentation that came with your TV for information about its inputs.

    The Apple Software automatically references, displays, links to, and provides web services related to, sites and information located worldwide throughout the Internet. Because Apple has no control over such sites and information, Apple makes no guarantees as to such sites and information, including but not limited to: (a) the accuracy, availability, sequence, completeness, currency, content, validity or quality of any such sites and information, or (b) whether an Apple search completed through the Apple Software may locate unintended or objectionable content. Because some of the content on the Internet consists of material that is adult-oriented or otherwise objectionable to some people or viewers under the age of 18, the results of any search or entering of a particular URL using the Apple Software may automatically and unintentionally generate links or references to objectionable material. By using the Apple Software, you acknowledge that Apple makes no representations or warranties with regard to any sites or information displayed by or accessed through the Apple Software, or any web services performed by the Apple Software in relation to such sites or information. Apple, its officers, affiliates and subsidiaries shall not, directly or indirectly, be liable, in any way, to you or any other person for the content you receive using the Apple Software or for any inaccuracies, errors in or omissions from the content. Financial information displayed by the Apple Software is for general informational purposes only and is not intended to be relied upon as investment advice. Before executing any securities transaction based upon information obtained through the Apple Software, you should consult with a financial professional. Neither Apple nor any of its content providers guarantees the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of stock information appearing within the Apple Software. The Apple Software may be used to conduct automated translations. As automated translations are performed by software tools and do not involve any human intervention or verification, it is not advisable to rely upon such translations where absolute accuracy is required.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY, OR OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. In no event shall Apple’s total liability to you for all damages (other than as may be required by applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed the amount of fifty dollars ($50.00).

It does not verify the identity of the person using that screen name. Apple does not guarantee that there will be no hacking or intrusions into the chat. YOUR USE OF THIS FEATURE IN CONNECTION WITH ICHAT IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. APPLE MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, SECURITY, OR NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THE USE OF DIGITAL CERTIFICATES AND/OR ENCRYPTION IN ICHAT.
