MIRROR YOUR iPHONE, iPAD, or iPOD TOUCH

Use Screen Mirroring to see the entire screen of your iOS device on your Apple TV

1. Turn the AV system on with the room’s AV Controller and choose APPLE TV as the source. 2. On your iOS device, open Control Center and tap Screen Mirroring.

4. When an AirPlay passcode appears on the projection screen or display, enter the passcode on your iOS device.

Your TV uses your iOS device's screen orientation and aspect ratio. To fill your TV screen with the mirrored iOS device screen, change your TV's aspect ratio or zoom settings.

To stop mirroring your iOS device, open Control Center, tap Screen Mirroring, then tap Stop Mirroring. Or press the Menu button on your Apple TV remote.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the effective range for using Airplay/Apple TV?

The limiting factor will be the distance from each device to the wireless access point or router you are using for your wireless network, not the device to the Apple TV. An exact distance is impossible to determine due to the numerous variables involved in wireless networking.

Can I use my Android or Windows device with an Apple TV?

Generally, no. There are paid, third-party applications available that may work but are not directly supported by Apple or Trinity College. Faculty should contact their Instructional Technologist for more information.

Why don’t all classrooms have an Apple TV?

The Fall 2018 Semester is Trinity’s first significant rollout of Apple TVs. If they prove successful and faculty ask for them in more locations we will likely see the program expand.

When I look for the Apple TV for my classroom via the Control Center I see many other Apple TVs. What are these?

Many students bring their own Apple TV to campus. Most will not be visible but some may show up in your control center. Be sure to choose the Apple TV for the location you are in.

Is there a list of all locations of Trinity College supported Apple TVs on campus?
