30 pin to lightning adapter broken?

My official apple 30 pin to lightning adapter has randomly stopped working. It worked in my car and on my dock, but all of a sudden the ipod says device not supported when connected and the dock doesn't connect at all. Tried girlfriend's iphone 5 and same result on the dock and in the car. Any advice or is it just the adapter that has broken? Thanks

Have checked for fluff and given it a good blow to clear anything out. The ipod charges fine with the lightning usb charger but still no joy. As the iphone didn't work either I suspect the chip may have failed. I purchased 6 November 2013 so just in the 12 months warranty so it looks as though a trip to the apple store may be required.
Thank you

30 pin to lightning adapter revised? How to purchase original version?.

In November of 2012 I ordered a 30 pin to lightning adapter through Amazon. It had the model number A1468 on the back. I believe Apple was the supplier for this part as it had all their standard info printed on the back of the adapter.
I used it with my iPhone 5 and later with my iPad mini to work with my Altec Lansing T612 stereo speaker docks. It worked great. It charged and it passed audio through.
Fast forward to this month and I purchase another adapter through Amazon using the same product link. It won't charge or pass audio. I try a second vendor and same issue. I also try 4XEM and theirs charges, but won't pass audio.
I go to the Apple store in town and purchase one. I notice immediately the part is wider than mine and not as tall. It also doesn't match the picture on the box. It doesn't charge or pass audio. My working adapter from 2012 looks like the picture on the box. Seems to me the part was revised.
How can I purchase more of these earlier versions of this adapter?

I have several genuine Apple 30/lightning adapters
Just compared one purchased back last Sept direct from Apple online at iPhone 5 release and one purchased couple of weeks ago at an Apple Retail store ,both unquestionably genuine Apple
They are identical
I was not aware that Amazon was selling genuine Apple adapters last year ,however there were many unlicenced
copies around and certainly on Amazon .
The description you give of the box is nothing like the detail on a Genuine Apple product ,in front of me now.

30 Pin cable combined with a 30 pin to Lightning Adapter (iPhone 5 problem)

Hey guys, I Have an iPhone 5.
I have an old iPhone 4 cable (official apple) and a lightning adapter (again, official apple) and I can charge from the wall no problem, however I don't seem to be able to connect it to my laptop for iTunes to recognise it?/
It's not the usb ports as I borrowed my brother's iPhone 5 lightning cable and that seems to work perfect, is there any reason why this doesn't work?

If you mean the 30 pin to lightning adapter, then it should be from apple. It was pretty expensive and if i google the item number on google, Applestores webpage showes up as number 2 so it should be authentic!
Item number:
MD823ZM/A

Why doesn't a genuine Apple 30 pin to Lightning adapter work with an iPhone 6 Plus?

Hello all - I was wondering if anyone else out there was having an issue with their Apple 30 pin to Lightning adapter not working with their new iPhone 6 Plus? The adapter worked fine with my iPhone 5, but since I got my new phone, I keep getting the message that says that "this accessory may not be compatible..." Did Apple change something with their Lightning ports? Should I purchase a new 30 pin to Lightning adapter? This is annoying! I have used it in my car (Kia) for over a year with an iPhone 5 and it worked flawlessly.

Howdy nanster23,
If you have as yet been unable to use this 30pin to lightning bolt adapter, I would like to recommend the troubleshooting in the following article to help you get that squared away:
If you need help with iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch accessories
These sections in particular since you have already done a couple of them:
Disconnect and inspect the accessory, then restart your device
Disconnect the accessory and turn it off, if possible.
Inspect the connection between the accessory and device and make sure that no debris or other damage is present.
Restart your iOS device by turning it off, then back on. When the Home screen appears, reconnect the accessory.
Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Restore your iOS device. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue only affects a third-party accessory, contact the manufacturer before restoring the device.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Will my iPhone 5 work in my 2010 Kia Soul after getting the 30-pin to lightning adapter?

My 2010 Kia Soul uses the cable that connects the USB and 1/8" jack to the 30-Pin. If I get the $30 adapter, will I still have controls from my factory radio like I did with my iPhone 4?

Thank you, but my question wasn't answered.
Will the Kia's stereo control the iphone's music and display the track info in the stereo's display as it does with all previous iPhones? I understand that I can play through it, but I do not want to be distracted from driving by having to control my music by picking up my phone and navigating that way.
Any answers from experience with this would be appreciated.
Thanks...

Lightning Adapter (to 30 pin) work in old docking speaker?

I'm talking about an Apple "Universal Dock" that I used with my 4th gen iPod Touch, which was then connected to my Hi-Fi system via the audio connector on the back of the dock. Worked perfectly!
Now when I mount the Lightning Adapter (to 30 pin) on the dock, and then my new 5th gen iPod Touch, there's no audio out of that dock audio connector.
just had a chance to test your test
I took both a Universal dock and an iPad dock
Added the 30 pin adapter plugged in to both ( one at a time)
plugged in my iPhone 5 and then attached the dock to an external speaker via the
3.5mm socket and the Aux in on the speaker
played music on the iPhone 5 and it played perfectly through the speakers trying both docs
So sorry the 30 pin to Lightning adapter DOES transmit music

Will MIDI keyboard (30 pin) work over lightning adapter? If I get 30pin o lightning adapter?

I have a lot of older 30 pin iOs accessories. iRig keyboard, yamaha i-MX1, Tascam iU2 Audio that have 30pin connector, and a bunch of iOS synthesiser apps. I want to use those accessories on newer iPHONE AND IPAD that have lightning connector.
So the obvious solution would be to get a 30 pin to lightning adapter. But I'm not sure it would work for sure. And this 30 pin to lightning adapter is not cheap.
Anyone tried to use any of listed devices on iOS 8 or 8.1.1 or 8.2 with any luck?
I have bought an off brand (not an original) 30 pin to lightning adapter, and that didn't work. I'm wondering if it's a crappy adapter or just those interfaces are incompatible even when those accessories are plugged in through 30 pin to lightning adapter.

I'm wondering if it's a crappy adapter
yes it most likely is
always best to buy genuine then if there are issues you can use an Apple genius bar
I use the Apple adapter in several scenarios all with iOS8 xx
No issues

Is there a way to display iPad Mini on TV using Lightning Adapter?

I can do it with my old iPad but the Mini is reporting that it doesn't recognize the Lightning adapter. I have the HDMI cable plugged into the TV, the other end of the HDMI cable is plugged into an Apple HDMI to 30-pin adapter, and then I have a 30-pin to Lightning adapter connected which is plugged into the iPad mini. With this configuration I am not getting any transfer of picture from the Mini to the TV - the Mini is even reporting that it doesn't recognize the adapter (have tried the adapter in an iPhone 5 with the same result). Plug an old iPhone 4 into the 30-pin adapter and get picture on the TV.
Is there something in the Settings that needs to be configured?
Any help would be most appreciated.

That will not work. You need to get this: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter?fnode=3 a

Can you mirror iphone 4 to macbook pro using 30-pin digital av adapter?

I have an iPhone 4 and I want to be able to mirror my device onto my Macbook Pro, without using the internet. So for example if I was not in a location that had internet, I would still be able to do so. I purchased the 30-pin Digital AV Adapter online only to test it and not get anything on my screen but have iTunes open. Is this because I have an iPhone 4, would this accessory with with an iPhone 4S, or get the lightning adapater to work with the iPhone 5. Does anyone else know of other options that do not involve using internet.

I use the 30 Pin Av Adapter from Apple, and it works on my iPad 2 running iOS 6.1.3. So not sure what those reviews would be talking about.
Just to be sure there's no confusion: there's a difference between the 30 Pin Digital AV Adapter
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD098ZM/A/apple-digital-av-adapter
And the 30 Pin to Lightning Adapter
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD823ZM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter
The 30 pin to Lightning in fact does not support Video output, but if you have a newer iPad. (4 or a Mini) you can use a Lightning Digital Av Adapter
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter
For older iPads the 30 Pin Digital Av Adapter works just fine, in all iOS versions I've tried it on. In fact I can use it on a first generation iPad running iOS 4.3.3 to view movies from the Videos App just fine.
All of these will require an HDMi cable and a TV with an HDMI input. Most recent TV's have this.
The Apple TV will connect to an iPad wirelessly, but is also double the price of the adapters, and still requires the HDMI cable and port on the TV to connect to.
I'd suggest the adapter that fits your iPad over the Apple TV unless you really need to have the connection be wireless from the iPad to the Apple Tv box.
For Apps that don't have Video Output, the only eay to view the is to Mirror the iPads screen, and for that you need an iPad 2 or newer. As the First Generation iPad cannot do this.

Please confirm whether a Lightning to 30-pin Adapter will work with Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter?

Please confirm whether a Lightning to 30-pin Adapter is suppose to work with Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter?
The Packaging of Lightning to 30-pin Adapter suggests it does.
But I have tried this today and my IPad just stated Unsupported accessory.

Expect Lightning extention cables in black shortly. Since extention need no special circuitry 3rd party's are already working on then.

30-pin Digital AV adapter with lightning to 30-pin adapter on iP5S?

Hello, I have an iPhone 5S, and I am trying to use the 30-pin Digital AV adapter (MD098ZM/A) with a lightning-to-30-pin adapter (MD823ZM/A) connected. I want to mirror my iPhones screen onto my monitor but it is not working. I get the "accessory not supported" message on my phone. I can't see why the AV cable wouldn't work for this phone with that adapter since Apple made the adapter... anyone know if this setup just won't work? Maybe the AV cable can't be used with the newer idevices even with the lightning adapters, huh?

I would check when you connect he device for dust or lint. Also if you are using a case that can sometimes prevent a good connection. If these two suggestions don't work I would return it baring someone else's input.

Can I control my iphone from an accessory using the 30 pin/lightning adapter?

I want to use my old accessories to control an iPhone 5s (e.g. skip tracks using my dock remote control), does the 30 pin/lightning adapter work for this or is it just for charging/audio out?

HT4108 I bought 2 Apple Digital AV Adapters "HDMI" (30 pin Digital TV Adapter "for IPad 2" - Lightning Digital AV Adapter "for IPad mini") three days ago.

Apple Crew ,
I bought 2 Apple Digital AV Adapters “HDMI” (30 pin Digital TV Adapter "for IPad 2" - Lightning Digital AV Adapter "for IPad mini") three days ago.
I’ve used my iPad 2 to connect with Samsung Smart TV via 30 pin Digital AV Adapter “HDMI”,
The iPad 2 instantly connect to the television, but the problem is that the TV displayed screen (mirror) isn't full screen. I tried with every setting on my iPad and also on the television but still no luck and the screen still appear in small size.
I’ve used my iPad mini to connect with Samsung Smart TV via Lightning Digital AV Adapter “HDMI”,
but also the same problem
I tried connecting with other televisions but the same result
It only works with iPhone with Full Screen!!!!!
I need to solve this issue as I paid almost 95 $ and for the first time I didn’t get the service I need from apple!! (Which I didn’t expect)

Problems with a lightning adapter - connecting my iphone 5 to a 30-pin audio cable in my car.

Randomly, the audio stops recognizing my connection to my car stereo via a 30-pin audio cable connected to my iphone 5 via a lightning adapter. It switches to the internal speaker and I have no idea how or why. It resolves itself just as unpredictably. I cannot replicate these conditions predictably. I have tried another lightning connector and a different audio cable. Due to damage, I also recently changed to a new iphone 5. The problem still exists. It appears to be related to the connector or iOS. Is anyone else having this problem?

Your case designer should have done their homework .
They would have full details of the iPhone and its accessories
assuming they are a developer status

TS3581 Crackling static noise in audio with 30 pin lightning adapter when battery is full

Anyone else get a really bad crackling static noise through the audio when using the 30 pin lightning adapter and the battery is almost full? I am using an iPhone 5, BMW iDrive with the Y audio and USB connection. I did not have this problem with the 4S and the normal 30 pin connector. The lilghtning 30 pin adapter seems to create interference when the phone's battery is nearly full. I also see the warning message indicating that charging is not supported - and according to the troubleshooting guide this is normal - but what about the noise????

Alright, another update: I tried another iPhone 5, which did not charge, and an iPod touch (without the lightning adapter, obviously), which also did not charge. Additionally, I tried the lightning to 30-pin adapter with an old sync cable and my computer, and it worked fine. At this point, it appears that the problem may be in the MDI cable coming from the car, rather than the adapter. Perhaps it was just coincidental that it stopped working at the same time I upgraded.
