How to Connect a MacBook to a TV


Jump to the cable you need to connect your MacBook to your TV

Apple’s MacBook is an amazing machine that can be used for both creative and business oriented-pursuits.

One of its best features is its ability to play every known multimedia format – from Bluray to DVD to FLV; the MacBook outshines the traditional personal computer in many ways.

The only downside perhaps to using a MacBook to  watch Netflix movies or watch programs on Hulu is the small display size. The small screen detracts from a full-length movie experience.
An idea: wouldn’t it be grand if you can use your television set to watch movies and other program running on your MacBook?

So you would have: 

MacBook’s Movie-Playing Power

TV’s Full Sized, High Definition Display Power

Awesome, Full-Length Movie Experience!


Ready to go? Here is a step by step guide to connect your TV to your MacBook using our cables:

Step 1: Find the right TV cable for your MacBook model. Our cables are capable of conveying both sound and image to your television set.

Step 2: Power down your MacBook and your television set. Connect the VGA port of your cable to the VGA port of your MacBook. Next, connect the 3.5 mm audio jack of the cable to the audio output of your MacBook. Similarly, connect the audio jack to your TV’s audio input.

Step 3: Double-check your connections to see if everything is properly connected. Turn on your MacBook, and then turn on your TV set.

Step 4: You’re done!

Note: Many of the new televisions have several Input Modes to choose from. You may have to pre-configure your television’s Input Mode. In most cases, you will find a VGA Input Mode option from your TV’s configuration menu. Once this has been selected, you should be able to see your MacBook’s display being displayed on your TV screen.

You can also use your MacBook’s mirroring mode if you want to use your TV as a clone of your MacBook’s display.


There you have it, an easy and inexpensive way of expanding your MacBook’s awesome movie-playing power.

You can also watch hits on Hulu or watch Netflix movies on your TV, too!
