Apple TV 3rd Generation HD Streamer

The Apple TV 3rd Generation A1427 is a compact media player that delivers 1080p HD programming from iTunes, Netflix and Vimeo. It suits viewers who want a simple way to watch purchased films, TV shows and iCloud-matched music on a television.

Upgrade from 720p or older Apple TV

This model replaces earlier 720p-capable streamers and adds full 1080p output plus AirPlay mirroring from iOS devices and computers. The jump is worth it when your display supports 1080p and you rely on iTunes Match or want wireless streaming from a phone or Mac.

1080p playback with HDMI and optical audio

The device comfortably handles 1080p video, iTunes libraries and AirPlay streams over Wireless-N or Ethernet. It runs out when apps require newer tvOS versions, 4K resolution or HDR formats that this hardware cannot decode.

Questions about this item

What HDMI version does the A1427 require on my TV?

The A1427 outputs 1080p video through its HDMI port, so any television with an HDMI input that accepts a 1080p signal will work.

Which cable do I connect first when setting up the MD199LL/A?

Connect the HDMI cable to your display before powering the MD199LL/A; the common mistake is plugging in power first and then seeing no picture until the TV input is reselected.

How do I replace the infrared remote for this A1427 unit?

This device only includes the streamer itself; you must supply a compatible Apple Remote or use the Remote app on an iOS device paired over the same network.
