How to Change an iBook VGA (RGB) Cable to a TV Cable

The Apple iBook is a laptop computer that is no longer produced by the company. In 2006, Apple scrapped the iBooks for the larger, more powerful Macbooks. However, many of the features the Macbooks have can be traced back on the iBooks. This includes the VGA port on the side of the device. The VGA port allows the laptop computer to connect to a monitor. It is also possible to change the VGA cable and connect the computer to a TV, allowing you to view the content of your iBook on a much larger screen.

Things You'll Need

• iBook
• VGA cable
• VGA to RCA adapter
• TV

Instructions

1. Connect the VGA cable to the VGA port on the iBook. This port is on the side of the laptop.

2. Connect the VGA to RCA adapter onto the free end of the VGA cable. This adapter is will have the yellow cable (from the red, white and yellow RGA cables) and can be plugged into any TV with a video "In" port.

3. Plug the yellow cable into the "In" port on the television. Turn on the television and the iBook.

4. Switch the television to the "Video" setting. From here you can now view on the television what is on the iBook screen.
