How to Watch iPad on TV?

In order to get your iPad connected properly to your TV, you'll need the following items on hand:
1. A video-capable iPad. Any color will do.
2. An iPad-compatible video. Load it onto your iPod through iTunes. (If the video is not compatible with iPad, try the DVD Video to iPad Converter freely.)
3. An A/V cable. If you don't already have an eighth-inch-to-RCA cable, you can pick one up on eBay for five or six bucks shipped. Search for "camcorder A/V cable." Remember, you want a three-plug yellow/red/white RCA connection at one end and a three-banded eighth-inch (3.5mm) A/V plug at the other.

Tip: iPad Transfer software can help you transfer files from iPad to computer easily and freely. It can help you backup iPad without iTunes, such as backup iBooks from iPad to PC.

Tutorial: How to Watch iPad on TV?

Step 1: Set up your iPad video options.
Go to "Videos" -> "Video Settings" from the main menu on your iPad. This screen offers three settings: TV Out, TV Signal and Widescreen. Adjust the selections to give the video playback options you need. We suggest you set the "TV Out" option to "Ask" so you always know it will play. If you live in the US, your TV Signal is NTSC. Make sure this is selected. If you're outside the US, you might want to check which option to use.

Step 2: Plugging the AV cable into the TV. In easier words, do the following:
Red RCA plug -> TV's yellow RCA jack
Yellow RCA plug -> TV's white RCA jack
White RCA plug -> TV's red RCA jack.
