Setup Chromecast and share desktop screen to TV. chromecast setup and technical support

The Chromecast is a simple device to set up but there are a few things you need to make sure you to ensure your Chromecast will work properly. 

Step 1

make sure your Chromecast is properly connected to your TV, with the HDMI connector fully inserted into your TV or projector. If you have the older, stick model and there isn't enough space around your HDMI ports for it to fit, then consider using the HDMI extension cable that comes in the box with your Chromecast to give the device some clearance. This won't affect picture quality. The newer design has an integrated small cable, so should plug in anywhere.

Step 2

, make sure your Chromecast is connected to a USB connector on the back of your TV, 

as it needs more power than the HDMI port can provide. If this doesn't work, try another port, if not then your TV might not be able to supply enough power via its USB ports. In this case, use the wall socket plug that came in the box with your Chromecast. This connects via the supplied micro USB lead to the appropriate port on your Chromecast.

Take note of the HDMI port it's plugged into and then use your TV remote to select that port (usually the AV button will cycle through all the ports if pressed repeatedly). All being well, after a few seconds of being plugged in, the Chromecast will boot up and you'll see a brief flash of the Chrome logo followed by a screen that says Set me up.

It's time to get your smartphone out. Using this, follow the instructions onscreen and browse to http://Chromecast.com/setup. Depending on which device you visit from, either an iOS device or an Android device, select your relevant app store and download the app. If you're visiting from a laptop or PC, you should click the link that says "If you do not have access to a phone or tablet, you can download the setup utility for your computer." Or just visit our site or call us at 1888 479 2017  if you're using Windows.

^Look out for the Cast logo (highlighted in yellow here, but usually white). Any app with this logo supports Casting. Once you hit the button, anything you play within that app will appear on your Chromecast instead of on your phone or tablet
