I have a Sharp TV can I use my new Apple TV

My TV is an older annalog TV model number 32R-S60. What do I need to hook up my apple TV. I have three RCA jacks Input in the back and three RCA output jacks in the front. I have purchased an HDMI to RCA cable with no success. Does anyone know a fix to my problem or am I just out a lot of money. For some $120.00 might not be a lot of money. I am 73 years old and it means a lot of money to me.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately as you have discovered the only output from the Apple TV is via HDMI. I'm not sure what it is that you have purchased to try to resolve the problem but I am not aware of any such thing as an HDMI to RCA cable. Anything that you purchase to try to resolve this situation (whether it fully works or not) would involve a hardware converter and not simply a cable.
There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
HDCP
HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as HD content from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
Resolution and aspect ratio
I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2).

    Can I use the new Apple Thunderbolt  to Firewire adapter to download video from a video camera by firewire to my Macbook Air ?

    Yes, you can use the 85 watt adaptor. You cannot use the new adaptors because your computer is not equipped with the proper MagSafe connector. But you can use the older MBP adaptors as well as a 60 watt replacement adaptor. All can be found at Apple's Online Store.

    You can plug the iPod into the same iTunes library as your iPod Touch and sync whatever content you like to it. There is no limilt to the number of iPads, iPhones, or iPods you can sync with one iTunes library, account, or computer.  How you sync one device will not affect the syncing preferences of the other.

  • How can I use a new Apple ID?

    I have an iCloud account that I've been using for a long time (since the @mac.com days) which has everything Apple of mine asociated with it (iTunes purchases, AppleCare registrations, Cloud Storage).
    I don't use that email anymore. I have a gmail that I've been using for a number of years now. My question is how I can set up a new Apple ID that the @gmail.com email address is the actual ID itself, and not just the Primary Email Address for the the @me.com/@icloud.com. I want to be able to control everything of mine (including iTunes/App Store purchases) on the new ID and just ditch the old email once and for all.
    Please let me know if you need clarification on anything. Any feedback is appreciated.
    Note: Apple doesn't allow iCloud accounts (Apple IDs) ending in @me.com, @icloud.com, or @mac.com to be changed.

    It means you have to enter your credit card and billing information (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2589), or create an ID without a credit card as shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534.

  • I have a Sharp Aquos lc-40e67un that and new Apple TV. It doesn't show an input plugged into any HDMI port I try to use.

    I have a Sharp Aquos lc-40e67 television that is 5-6 years oldthat and a brand new Apple TV that doesn't show up as an input in any HDMI plug I hook it to. Is my television too old to use the Apple TV technology?

    I checked all power connections first, then tried every available HDMI port on the tv. There was nothing showing on the input page that indicated anything new was available.
    I'm not sure how to update firmware, inasmuch as I can't get the device onscreen to see any options.
    I tried everything I could think of, including scouring the net for information before I posted my question here for help. Perhaps my 6 year old Sharp just predates any ability to use such hardware.

  • How can I use my new apple ID on my iphone?

    Just I create a new Apple ID, on the website of apple and when I was trying to use it on my iphone, send my someones messages that this accounted hasn´t used on Itunes, and later send my to the apple store... I tried to changed by Setting but was the same problem.

    Hi kamfong,
    Went to Settings where?
    If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
    1.     Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
    You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
    Cheers,

  • I need to reset my billing stuff I canceled my card and it won't let me delete it on my iPad and I have 15 dollars I can't use on that Apple ID

    I Need to reset my billing stuff I canceled my visa and it is still on there it won't delete I also have 15 dollars on there I can't use

    If you are trying to change your credit card info and you have cancelled the one card, then you need to add the new card, then make it the default card, and then you can delete the other one. If you have any additional issues, then contact iTunes support for assistance. http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

  • Can I use the new Apple TV without a display for audio streaming only?

    Here's my situation...
    I have an Airport Express in my living room connected to my DSL modem to create a wifi network. I also have a current model MacBook Pro and would like to add an Apple TV to my bedroom system for music and Netflix audio streaming. I do not own a TV to do any setup.
    If I bought an ATV for my bedroom and connected the optical output to my DAC, would I be able to accomplish my goal or is there a setup procedure on the ATV which mandates a display?
    I realize I could just buy another Airport Express for easy audio streaming, but then I wouldn't have the Netflix audio capability which I would like since I watch movies on my MBP. I'm hoping like an Airport Express, the ATV would configure itself for audio streaming once connected to my wifi network.
    Thanks for any help or ideas.

    If you're planning to stream from iTunes to the AppleTV controlling the material via iTunes, I suspect it may just appear as an Airtunes speaker option for iTunes without any setup needed.
    No Netflix in UK so don't know much about it, but I suspect you'd need to control the AppleTV directly for this unless you were viewing on the MBP and used something like Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil to transmit audio.
    If you have no desire for controlling AppleTV either on an TV or using Remote app for iPhone etc (and you'd need to set AppleTV up with a TV for Netflix or AppleTV controlled streaming anyway), you might want to consider using another Express upstairs and hook it's optical out to your DAC if you're just after stereo audio.

  • Hi guys, i would like to ask about the apple id.  Which at this time I have been using the new apple id, can I be able to continue updates all the applications that I have purchased by using the old apple id.

    Hey guys, I am newbie here ;(.. I have a question regarding my new apple id. at this moment i've still have all the applications that i've been purchased by using my old apple id.
    In case there are an update for the applications in my iphone, " Can i use my new apple id to update all the application that i've been purchased with my old apple id ". If its not possible to do, are there any suggestion for me to updates all the applications by using my new apple id ?
    Many thanks ;)

    Apps must be updated using the Apple ID used to originally download them to the device.
    If you cannot or will not use the old Apple ID, then you can delete the app, and then download it again using the current Apple ID.  Be aware that any paid apps will have to be purchased again.

    You need to reconfigure your phone for use with your Apple ID. I suggest you restore yours as new then reconfigure it with your information and Apple ID. Be sure to disable Find My Phone, if it's enabled, before proceeding.
