Hi Terri, You would normally have to select which input you use, most TV’s have at least 2 HDMI and also some component and composit. There would typically be a button on the remote which should say something like “Input”, you press it and all the available inputs show up on the display, you then arrow up or down and press enter on the one you want. This can be difficult for a blind person and basically requires some sighted help to remember in what order they are in. If, for example, you only use HDMI 1 and 2 it’s hopefully a matter of just pressing the Input button and either up arrow or down arrow once and then enter.

It has 2HDM I ports on it. One on the side, and one on the bottom in the back. My boyfriend and I decided to go with the cheapest cable package we could. So when the cable man came, he who the HDMI cable, for the cable, into the HDMI port on the bottom. I had my Apple TV plugged in to the one on the side. When we trying to get our cable to work, it would only show us the Apple connection, and we still had our antenna up to it showed on TV as well. However, it would not even register the other HDMI port, or give her that option. So I unplugged my AppleTV, and sure enough now we can watch cable. I do not understand why this is the case, or why it is a problem. Have anyone else had this kind of an issue before? If so, is there anything I can do about it? Any thoughts, or suggestions, would be very helpful! Thank you, Terri -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
