Managing Your Content

Adding Movies, TV Shows, and Music

You can set up iTunes to add content to Apple TV in the following ways:

 Automatically sync content

 Sync selected content

 Stream content

Automatically Syncing Content

Syncing is the simplest way to add content to Apple TV. Syncing copies content from

your iTunes library and stores it on Apple TV. By default, iTunes automatically syncs

your content to Apple TV. Your computer doesn’t have to be on to view content you

sync to Apple TV. If you have a slow network, syncing is recommended.

Content is synced to Apple TV in this order:

 Movies

 TV shows

 Music

 Podcasts

 Photos

If your movies and TV shows fill Apple TV, for example, your music, podcasts, or photos

are not added. Content is removed from Apple TV in reverse order, as needed. Syncing

a new movie might result in photos and podcasts being removed from Apple TV.
