Purchase an Apple AV cable from an electronics store or direct from Apple. Choose the Apple Component AV cable for flat screen or larger TVs, and choose the Apple Composite AV cable for a smaller or older TV.
Connect the iPod end of the AV cable to the iPod via the 30-pin connector found on the bottom of the iPod. This is the same jack that you use to connect the iPod to a computer or iPod dock.
Connect the other end of the AV cable to your TV or entertainment system. The cables and the associated jacks are color coordinated so you can match the color on each cable output to the matching jack. If you have a separate receiver or stereo for audio, connect the red and white outputs to the stereo system and the other cables to the video in connections on the TV.
Turn on the TV and set the TV to video-in. Older TVs that lack built in video-in should be set to channel 3 or 4 depending on your TV settings. The AV cables should be connected to the stereo receiver or audio/video adapter that is connected to the TV.
If you have videos, movies, or picture slide shows on your Apple iPod, you can connect the iPod to your television and watch these video files on a bigger screen. Movies purchased from the iTunes music store or video files that you placed on the iPod through iTunes can both be played directly on the iPod and be displayed on the TV screen.
