Apple TV Quick Start

You don’t want to read a book—you want to watch TV and movies, listen to music, view photos, and play games! I’ve broken this book into bite-sized chunks, so you can find what you need quickly.

You’re new to Apple TV:

• Plug it in and get started with Set Up Your Apple TV.
• Become familiar with the Apple Remote and Remote app in Control Your Apple TV.
• Find out about media that’s directly available through the Apple TV in Discover What’s on Offer.
• Be sure to Master AirPlay so that you can beam the display of your Mac, iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch screen to your TV.

Tip: Print the Cheat Sheet, and keep it by your Apple TV.

Once you have the basics:

• Learn how to watch movies and TV; read Apple TV at the Movies.
• Turn your Apple TV into a home audio system in Rock Out with Apple TV.
• Learn how to View Photos & Home Movies.
• Give stunning presentations as you Present with Apple TV.
• Enjoy great games; see Play Games on Apple TV.

You want to make the most of your Apple TV:

• Convert your video collection in Rip DVDs for Apple TV.
• Expand your options by going In the Plex to set up a media server.
• Pretend to be in another country when you Work Around Regional Restrictions.
• Set up an Elgato EyeTV HD to Record Live TV for Apple TV.
