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.
