the list of AirPlay devices. If doesn’t appear or if you don’t see Apple TV in the list of AirPlay
devices, make sure it’s on the same wireless network as iPhone. For more information, see

and choose iPhone.

Stream videos using a cable: Use the cable to connect iPhone to your TV or AV receiver and

Connect using an AV cable

Use the Apple Component AV Cable, Apple Composite AV Cable, or other
authorized iPhone-compatible cable. You can also use these cables with the
Apple Universal Dock to connect iPhone to your TV. You can use the dock’s
remote to control playback.

Connect using an Apple Digital AV
Adapter (iPhone 4 or later)

Attach the Apple Digital AV Adapter to the iPhone Dock connector. Use
an HDMI cable to connect the HDMI port of the adapter to your TV or
receiver. To keep iPhone charged while watching videos, use an Apple Dock
Connector to USB Cable to connect the 30-pin port of the adapter to your
computer, or to a USB Power Adapter plugged into a power outlet.

Connect using a VGA Adapter

Attach the VGA Adapter to the iPhone Dock connector. Connect the VGA
Adapter with a VGA cable to a compatible TV, projector, or VGA display.

The Digital AV Adapter supports high-definition video up to 720p, with audio.

When you connect iPhone 4S to a TV or projector using an Apple Digital AV Adapter or VGA
Adapter, the iPhone screen is automatically mirrored on the external display at a resolution of up
to 1080p, and videos play at a resolution of up to 720p.

With iPhone 4S, you can also mirror the screen on a TV wirelessly using AirPlay Mirroring and
Apple TV. See “AirPlay” on page 34.

Deleting videos from iPhone

You can delete videos from iPhone to save space. Deleting a video from iPhone (other than a
rented movie) doesn’t delete the video from your iTunes library. It may reappear on iPhone if the
video in iTunes is still set to sync.

Important:

If you delete a rented movie from iPhone, it’s deleted permanently and cannot be

transferred back to your computer.
Delete a video: In the videos list, swipe left or right over the video, then tap Delete.

Using Home Sharing

Home Sharing lets you play music, movies, and TV shows on iPhone from the iTunes library on
your Mac or PC. See “Home Sharing” on page 81.

Setting a sleep timer

You can set iPhone to stop playing music or videos after a period of time.
Set a sleep timer: In the Clock app, tap Timer, then flick to set the number of hours and minutes.
Tap When Timer Ends and choose Sleep iPod, tap Set, then tap Start to start the timer.
When the timer ends, iPhone stops playing music or video, closes any other open app, and then
locks itself.
