Can I connect Sky Go to my TV? I have an iPad 3 on which I have Sky Go and Sky Sports and these can be watched readily on the tablet's screen. However when I connect the iPad directly to my TV using an HDMI cable or via Apple TV, which is also connects to the TV by an HDMI lead, there is no picture. What is going wrong? Warren Starr, by email According to Sky its decision to disable the HDMI output on the iPad when using the Sky Go app is due to contractual agreements imposed by rights holders. Interestingly this only affects iPad users; the Sky Go HDMI output works perfectly well on other portable devices, such as laptops, but only because there is no way for Sky to switch it off. Various workarounds have been suggested but they all involve Jailbreaking the iPad, and installing unapproved apps that circumvent Sky Go's jailbreak detector and enable the HDMI output. This requires a fair amount of faffing around, some risk of damaging the iPad, and it invalidates the warranty, so on balance it's probably not a good idea.
