Why can't I plug my Ipod into TV and watch UTube?
« on: December 27, 2011, 03:46:15 PM »
Via the USB port?  The TV will charge my Ipod but how do I get the video signal to the TV so I can watch and control it with my Ipod?

What TV is it? You can't use a USB cable to do TV out, short of jailbreaking. Apple wants you to use a few specific devices to accomplish what you want to do:
