I've just purchased an iPod Touch and Apple's AV cable. But when connected to TV I don't see any color. Everything B&W. Am I doing something wrong?:confused:
Everything is great on touch but when connected to TV ( I tried three different TVs ) color disappears.
Any ideas???

What type of video connection are you using? If you are using component video (the video is split up into three different colors) then it sounds like some cables got switched around. If you are using composite video (yellow RCA video cable with red and white RCA cables for audio) then it could be something with your TV or the cable itself. I would try hooking your iPod up to a different TV and see if it does the same thing. What country do you live in?

I live in California, USA. :)
And my TV signal output is set to NTSC. ( I even tried PAL setting with no result)
I use the original "Component AV Cable" that "APPLE" sells.
I switched every combination of color matching with the TV and the cable for on 3 different TV.
But the result is the same.
Picture is crystal clear but Black and White.
Sound is clear too.
No color on any Video or YouTube viewing.
Thanks guys,

Make sure that you have the proper red cable plugged into the audio and video connections. Component video uses three different RCA video cables with red, blue, and green colors. It also comes with red and white audio RCA cables. Makes sure the proper red cable is plugged into your video input.
If that doesn't work then try hooking your iPod touch up to a different TV. If it is still in black and white then try using a new set of cables. If it is still in black and white then there is a problem with your iPod touch (this is after using the new cables on a different TV).
