TV gives you access to everything you want to see and hear —
blockbuster movies, TV shows, your music and photos, even news and
sports — right on your widescreen TV. And now that your content is
stored in iCloud, you can easily access your previously purchased TV
shows. Even your photos update automatically. And best of all, Apple TV is just $99.
Overview
A lot of entertainment. In a very little box.
With Apple TV, everything you want to watch — movies, TV shows,
photo slideshows, and more — plays wirelessly on your widescreen TV. No
managing storage. No syncing to your iTunes library. HD movies and TV
shows from iTunes and Netflix play over the Internet on your HDTV, and
music and photos stream from your computer. All you have to do is click
and watch.
With iCloud, you can browse and watch your purchased TV shows and listen to your previously purchased music.1 And with Photo Stream, your photos update automatically — no syncing, no sending.
Apple TV features a powerful A4 chip, so it plays everything
effortlessly, without frozen screens or stutters. Videos look crisp and
clear. And just like watching a DVD, you can fast-forward through
opening credits, pause for a popcorn break, or replay a hilarious scene
until you memorize every line.
Apple TV is quiet, energy efficient, and so small it fits in
the palm of your hand. Which makes it perfect for sitting neatly on a TV
stand or squeezing into a crowded media cabinet. And when it’s not
filling your living room with drama, romance, and comedy, it uses less
power than a night-light.
S
Less clutter with HDMI.
Play audio and video through a single HDMI connection.
Intuitive interface.
Cruise through the simple Apple TV menus with the sleek,
aluminum Apple Remote, included with every Apple TV. Choose from Movies,
TV Shows, Music, Podcasts, Photos, Internet, and Settings menus with a
click. The Apple TV interface takes full advantage of your widescreen
TV, making it clear and easy to find whatever entertainment you’re in
the mood for.
Get connected with Apple TV.
Setting up Apple TV is about as simple as it gets. Just plug
the power cord into the wall and connect Apple TV to your widescreen TV
using an HDMI cable (sold separately). Since everything streams
wirelessly to Apple TV using your Wi-Fi network, that’s all you need.
Well, that and a comfy couch.
Give your digital collection some airtime.
Home Sharing on your Apple TV makes sure those songs, movies,
TV shows, and photos — even home videos — don’t have to stay on your
computer. For maximum entertainment, stream your digital collection over
the air to your Apple TV. Just don’t forget to call dibs on the
recliner.
Your HD movies and TV shows. Instant entertainment.
From the movie theater to your home theater.
No more waiting in line to check out DVDs or watching stale
blockbusters on cable. With Apple TV, you get instant access to the
hottest Hollywood titles and new releases — often the same day they come
out on DVD. Popular movies are never out of stock, and you can rent as
many as you want. That’s perfect for those spontaneous movie nights (or
afternoons or mornings). Search by top movies, title, or genre. Even
read a quick movie review, watch the trailer, and check out the latest
ratings from Rotten Tomatoes. Once you find what you’re looking for,
simply press Play, and in seconds, you’re watching the opening credits
with theater-like Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound.2 SD
rentals start at just $2.99, and HD rentals start at $3.99. You have 30
days to start watching, and once you begin, you can watch as many times
as you want in 24 hours.
Now anytime is prime time.
Buy your favorite TV shows and watch them without commercial
interruption for just $1.99 in SD or $2.99 in HD. And you can download
them later to your iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, or computer at no
additional cost. It works the other way around, too. Buy an episode on
any of your devices, and it automatically shows up in your list of
previously purchased items, so you can watch it via Apple TV. Watch a
show the day after it airs, or camp out on your couch and catch up on
past seasons with a marathon of back-to-back-to-back episodes. And Apple
TV keeps track of your favorite shows — so the next time you turn on
your TV, you can quickly see which season you’re watching and which
episodes are new. Just choose shows with a few clicks of the included
remote.
Search by category. Or enter a specific movie or TV show using the Apple Remote.

iCloud and Apple TV. A match made in iCloud.
Your content. On all your devices.
iCloud stores your TV shows, your music, your photos, and more and pushes them wirelessly to all your devices.3
So you can buy your favorite TV show on Apple TV, and also have it
available to watch on your iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, Mac, or PC. iCloud
is the easiest way to get instant access to your content — no matter
which device you’re using.

entire music collection from iCloud — including songs you’ve imported
from CDs — right from your Apple TV. Play them on Apple TV or any
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or computer for just $24.99 a year.4
iTunes Match has an amazing scan-and-match feature — all the songs in
your iTunes library are scanned and then matched with those available on
the iTunes Store. Matched songs are instantly added to iCloud with no
uploading needed. Any remaining songs are automatically uploaded from
your computer to iCloud.
Photo Stream.
Say Grandma couldn’t make it to your kid’s first soccer game.
You snapped enough pictures, but the thought of uploading all those
photos was daunting. Until now. With Photo Stream in iCloud, your last
1000 photos automatically appear on all your devices — including Apple
TV. No matter which device you used to take the picture. No syncing. No
sending. Your photos are just there on your HDTV. For Grandma, and
everyone, to enjoy.

or buy it again. You can also stream a home video you just recorded or
videos from websites and AirPlay-enabled apps. Simply tap to start
playing content on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, then tap again to
instantly stream whatever you’re watching — or listening to — directly

And now with AirPlay Mirroring, you can wirelessly and securely
stream what’s on your iPad 2 or iPhone to your HDTV. So you can show

thereof). Learn more about AirPlay
