Is any HDMI cable compatible with Apple tv?

Can I use another brand of HDMI-HDMI cable with apple tv, other than the one they sell on their website?

Yes.  Any generic will do.

  • Are all tv's with hdmi inputs compatible with Apple TV2?

    I am considering purchasing a new TV.  My older model Sony TV, even though it has an HDMI input, is not compatible with Apple TV.  Do I have to take my Apple TV to Best Buy and plug it into every TV I look at to determine if they are compatible? Does Apple publish a list of compatible TV's?

    I receive an errror message telling me that my HDMI connection is not HDCP compatible.  I contacted Apple Support, visited my local Apple Store (with my Apple TV2), and bought new cables...nothing works.  I cannot watch Netflix or stream movies I have purchased from my iMac onto my TV.  Very frustrating.

  • HT1551 What "ir emitter cable" is compatible with apple tv?

    What brand or model "ir emitter cable" is compatible with apple tv?  I want to house it out of site. 

    All you need is an HDTV (at least 720p) with HDMI and HDCP compliant, and you will be fine.

  • I am having trouble with the initial connection. I have isolated the problem to the cable/ connection. My new hdmi cable has a resolution up to 1080p...does the resolution matter?is this the right hdmi cable for the apple tv?

    There are only two types of HDMI cables (standard and high speed - listen to all 1.2, 1.3 etc etc nonsense they will try to tell in the store) both types will work with the Apple TV.
    The cable may be faulty though, have you got another to try, what exactly is happening.

  • Griffin's Pro Speaker Breakout Cable compatible with the iMac G5?? HELP!

    I would love any suggestions anyone has as to making Griffin's Pro Speaker Breakout Cable compatible with the iMac G5.
    I just made the very foolish mistake of purchasing Griffin's Pro Speaker Breakout Cable for my iMac G5, which I am sure others, more up to speed on their apple products, realize are not compatible. The Pro Speaker Breakout Cable, as its name would suggest, connects to the Apple Pro Speakers Minijack available in G4s and G3s.
    I need someway to connect this Apple Pro Mini plug (2.5mm plug) to my audio-out 3.5mm output jack on my iMac. I have found this connector http://www.mpja.com/productview.asp?product=11298+AD but I am not sure if the 2.5mm Apple jack is the same as other 2.5mm jacks. Does anyone know if the two are compatible???
    I guess the other option is the iFire - or, conversely, to just forget the whole thing and get some new speakers.
    Any suggestions on the best/ most cost effective option would be greatly appreciated!!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Chris

    Forgive me for not being specific enough. I do not want to connect apple pro speakers. I want to connect my household speakers via the Pro Speaker Breakout Cable http://www.griffintechnology.com/archive/audio/prospeaker.html to my iMac. However, I did not realize that the breakout cable connected to the obsolete Apple Pro Speaker Minijack 2.5mm.
    Basically, I am just looking for the most cost effective method to get suitable sound from my computer. The threee options I am considering are:
    a) 2.5mm jack to 3.5mm plug converter allowing my breakout cable to fit into my audio input (which I am not sure will work - as I am not sure if the Apple minijack is a standard 2.5mm)
    b) get the iFire, plug my breakout cable into the iFire and then to my computer.
    c) get a different sound system entirely.
    I am really looking for any advice as to which would be best.

  • What HDMI cable do I need for my MacBook (2009) to my SONY HDTV? I thought the HDMI cable from my Apple TV would work, but it doesn't.

    What HDMI cable do I need for my MacBook (2009) to my SONY HDTV? I thought the HDMI cable from my Apple TV would work, but it doesn't.

    The model 7,1 is actually the Mid 2010 MacBook and is the only MacBook with a Mini DisplayPort that sends audio along with the video, Here's some Mini DisplayPort to HDMI with audio adapters from Amazon.

  • Is my CRT TV compatible with Apple TV?

    I have a Toshiba 24" (model 24AF42) television with a component video input. It is 3:2, but it displays widescreen DVD's properly. Would it be compatible with Apple TV? It apparently has 525 lines of resolution, if that's helpful.

    Thanks for replying, Gino. I've been watching DVD's for years on this TV, and I have the black bars on top and bottom of widescreen movies. On fullscreen 4:3 movies there are no bars, it fills up the screen.
    But the setting for that is on my DVD player. It specifically has 3 options- Standard 4:3, Letterbox 4:3, and Widescreen 16:9. I have it set to Standard 4:3 on my DVD player, and that makes fullscreen movies display with no black bars, filling the whole screen and widescreen movies display with black bars.
    I think Winston is on the right track, too. If I did connect an Apple TV to my TV using the Component Video Input, it would display with the right and left sides of widescreen movies cut off.
    I wouldn't be watching widescreen movies from my Apple TV, though. Maybe eventually when I upgrade my TV, but for now what I want to use Apple TV for is for displaying my photos from iPhoto, watching movies I've created in iMovie, and watching a few (30 or so) music videos I have purchased from ITMS. And of course playing my iTunes music library.
    Does anyone know how the Apple TV menu would look on a 4:3 ratio TV? If I'm going to be scrolling through my iTunes library, using menus etcetera, I don't know if the menu or submenu text would be cut off. I also don't know if my photos would display properly. The digital photos are all in 4:3 ratio, I haven't taken any pictures in widescreen mode on my camera yet.

  • Is Adobe Premier Elements 11 Compatible with Apple Mavericks Operating System?

    I am considering upgrading to the Mavericks operating system on my iMac computer, but before I do, I want to make sure that Premier Elements 11 is compatible with the operating system and will run properly.  Anyone have any experience.

    Sandeep
    In your answer to RogerD12, you wrote
    Yes, Premiere Elements 11 is compatible with Apple Mavericks 10.9
    Is that answer dependent on where Premiere Elements 11 Mac was purchased? Specifically, does your reply apply to
    Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor (purchased from Mac App Store)
    and
    Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Quick Editor (purchased from Mac App Store
    as well as
    Premiere Elements 11 Mac (purchased from Adobe)?
    Thanks.

    Mac OS X 10.7 requires an Intel i3, i5, i7, Core 2 Duo and 2 GB ram...to download you need to call Apple at 1-800-MY-APPLE and pay $20 for a download code for the Mac App Store.

  • Is the ZAGG keys Universal Keyboard compatible with Apple TV?

      is the ZAGG keys Universal Keyboard compatible with Apple TV?

    The ZAGG keys Universal Keyboard  is  a Bluetooth keyboard that the manufacturer states is "compatible with most IOS devices"  but does not list Apple TV specifically, though the the different  IPADS that are compatible are listed.
    I did contact the manufacturer through an online Sales Associate Chat on their website and ironically they could not answer me.   They did take my email and stated they will research and get back to me.  That was only yesterday, 10/7/13 so I will give it a few days.
    I know there are other keyboards available, so maybe I will just research a little more.

  • Aperture is not compatible with Apple TV

    Apple Support has confirmed that the preview function in Aperture is not compatible with Apple TV.  Don't buy Aperture if you want the same resolution on Apple TV!  Stick with iPhoto!!

    Works fine here, but must note that only a single Aperture Library can be selected, and this is to the exclusion of the iPhoto Library.
    Right-click on the Aperture Library and choose Show Package Contents.  Look for the iPod Photo Cache folder, and open it.  Is it populated by lots of subfolders, which in turn have content?  What is the date that the iPod Photo Cache was last modified.  You may not be able to check this now, having dumped Aperture, as you say.
    This folder is the source of what iTunes will see for sharing.  It probably can be removed, and then rebuilt by selecting what to Share.  Or maybe just removing its contents, and rebuild the selections.  But there is one per Aperture Library, and one in the iPhoto library, which is why only one source can be used to sync.
