Set-top boxes like the Apple TV and the Roku 3 are incredibly useful for the ease with which they can let you watch streaming video on your TV. Unfortunately they only include HDMI as a connection option, which makes them difficult to set up on a television that does not have an HDMI port. Fortunately you can purchase a converter box that allows you to convert from an HDMI cable to an RCA one.

The steps below will show you the products that you will need, and the steps that you will take in order to hook your Apple TV up to an older television that does not have an HDMI port.

Using an Apple TV Without an HDMI Port

One important thing to note when you are configuring this setup is that the RCA option will only support standard definition signals. So while the source coming into the Apple TV may be in high-definition, it will be converted to standard definition before it is displayed on your TV. With that in mind you will need to purchase the following:

1 – HDMI cable

1 – HDMI to AV Converter

1- AV cable

1 – USB power plug

Once you have acquired these three items, you will be able to connect the Apple TV to your television that doesn’t have an HDMI port. Note that you will need to place this HDMI converter near a power outlet, as the USB cable that comes with it is rather short.

Step 1: Connect the HDMI cable to the port on the back of the Apple TV.

Step 2: Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI input port on the HDMI to AV converter box.

Step 3: Connect one end of the AV cable to the ports on the back of the HDMI to AV converter box.

Step 4: Connect the other end of the AV cable to the ports on your TV.

Step 5: Connect the small end of the USB cable to the USB port on the side of the HDMI converter, then insert the larger end of the USB cable into the USB power plug and plug it into a wall outlet.

Step 6: Plug in and turn on the Apple TV.

Step 7: Turn on the TV and switch it to the correct input.

Tip – If you live in the United States or Canada, then you will use the NTSC option. If you live in Europe or Asia, then you would use the PAL option.

If you’ve been thinking about getting a set-top box, but haven’t been able to make up your mind, read this article comparing the Apple TV and the Roku 3. Both of them are excellent devices, but have certain features that are more appealing to some people than others.

Connect iPad Pro to your Mac or other computer

You can connect iPad Pro to your Mac or PC to charge the device or sync content using iTunes.

First, identify the ports on your computer. If your computer is a more recent model that has a Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) or USB-C port, connect to it with the USB-C to USB-C cable that came with iPad Pro.

If your computer has only USB-A ports, you need a USB-A to USB-C cable to connect to iPad Pro. One example is the mophie USB-A Cable with USB-C Connector; many other USB-certified brands available in your country or region might also work. The correct cable has connectors that look like this:

Charge iPad Pro

To charge iPad Pro, connect the included USB-C cable to the device's USB-C port and to the included 18W power adapter. Then plug the adapter into a wall outlet.

If you have a higher-wattage USB-C power adapter — such as the one that came with your Mac notebook — you can use it with iPad Pro, and you might see faster charging. You can also charge iPad Pro by connecting it to the USB-C port on your computer.

Connect to displays and monitors

The USB-C port on iPad Pro connects to external displays so that you can watch video, play Keynote presentations, and more on a larger screen. Depending on the display that you're connecting to, you might need an adapter.

When you connect an external display, it mirrors the iPad Pro built-in display, unless you're using an app that has a 'second screen' experience (such as a video app).

USB-C displays

iPad Pro uses the DisplayPort protocol to support connections to USB-C displays with resolutions up to 5K.¹ To connect iPad Pro to high-resolution displays, use a USB-C cable that supports high-bandwidth connections, such as the cable included with the display, the Belkin USB-C to USB-C Cable, or the Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) Cable (sold separately).²

iPad Pro also supports high-dynamic-range USB-C displays that use the HDR10 standard. You can switch between SDR and HDR modes by going to Settings > Display & Brightness and selecting your connected display. iPad Pro matches the frame rate and dynamic range of currently playing content when you turn on Allow Display Mode Changes.

Some USB-C displays can also charge iPad Pro while it's connected.

1. iPad Pro supports the 2019 LG UltraFine 5K Display at 4K resolution with video, audio, data, and power. iPad Pro doesn't support Thunderbolt 3 displays such as the 2016 LG UltraFine 5K Display.

2. The Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) Cable has a Thunderbolt symbol to distinguish it from a USB-C cable.

HDMI displays or TVs

You can connect iPad Pro to an HDMI display or TV with a USB-C to HDMI adapter. Adapters that support HDMI 2.0 can output video from iPad Pro at 4K resolution and 60Hz.

The Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter is also compatible with iPad Pro. This adapter can output video from iPad Pro at up to 4K resolution and 30Hz.*

iPad Pro can output Dolby Digital Plus audio streams via HDMI, but not Dolby Atmos. Also note that iPad Pro will play HDR10 or Dolby Vision content via HDMI when HDMI 2.0 adapters that support these formats become available.

* When you use the Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter with iPad Pro, its Home screen and apps appear on HDMI displays at 1080p and 60Hz. When you begin playing video content, the resolution switches to match the content, up to 4K at 30Hz. Turn on the Match Content option on iPad Pro in Settings > Displays.

Play audio

To play audio on iPad Pro, you can use its built-in speakers, connect to AirPods or other Bluetooth devices, or use AirPlay. You can also use the USB-C port to connect to USB-C docks, audio interfaces, or wired headphones that have a USB-C connector.

If you need to play audio through the USB-C port to other speakers or headphones, connect using the Apple USB-C to 3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter (sold separately).

Connect to other devices

The USB-C port on iPad Pro allows connections to a variety of devices. For example, you can connect a digital camera or the Apple USB-C to SD Card Reader to import photos to your iPad Pro. Other USB devices you can connect to iPad Pro include these:

• Hubs and docks
• Keyboards
• Audio interfaces and MIDI devices
• USB to Ethernet adapters

Depending on the device, you might need an adapter. Here are some common connections:

• If the device that you're connecting to has a USB-C port, all you need is a cable with USB-C connectors on each end, such as the cable that came with iPad Pro.
• If the device has a USB-C connector, you can plug it directly into the iPad Pro USB-C port.
• If the device has a USB-A connector, you can plug it into the Apple USB-C to USB adapter, then plug the adapter into the iPad Pro USB-C port.

Use iPad Pro to charge other devices

Away from a power outlet and need to charge your iPhone, other iPad, Apple Watch, or third-party USB device? Just connect the right cable or adapter to iPad Pro to share its long-lasting battery with your other devices:

• To charge your iPhone or earlier-model iPad that has a Lightning port, connect it to iPad Pro using the Apple USB-C to Lightning Cable. If you have a Lightning to USB cable, you can combine it with the Apple USB-C to USB Adapter, then connect the adapter to iPad Pro.
• If you have two iPad Pro models with USB-C ports, you can connect them directly with a USB-C cable. One iPad Pro will draw power from the other. If you want to change which iPad Pro charges, unplug the USB-C cable and then reconnect them.
• Charge your Apple Watch by connecting its Magnetic Charging Cable to iPad Pro via the Apple USB-C to USB Adapter. If you have an Apple Watch Magnetic Charger to USB-C Cable, you can connect it directly to iPad Pro.
