Digital AV Adaptor Failure after first use, should I return it?

I have one iPad 2 and one iPad.  I got a Digital AV Adaptor (DAVA) today and hooked it up to the iPad2.  The iPad screen appeared on my TV.  Played with some apps to see what worked.  Tried HBO Go, idt did not work, all that appeared was the HBO Go logo.  I unplugged.
Later I went back and plugged back in.  Got NOTHING.  I can play music via iPod app,  I CAN play my videos that I could play via the VGA Adaptor.  But NO MIRRORING.  It's like the device is nothing more than a VGA Adaptor.  It did "feel" very warm at one point.
I have tried 3 HDMI cables,  3 TVs and both iPads (1 & 2) with the same result.  Also read many suggestions on this site and updated the OS, shut things down started things up, etc., etc. with the same result.  It just don't work any more.
Any suggestions?  I saw the post about the return and since this thing worked then quit except it works as a VGA Adaptor maybe it was defactive and HBO fried it.
Thanks for your help and advice in advance...

My 2 cents:
I have used FileSalvage
http://www.subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?mainpage=product_info&productsid=1
to recover files from damaged disks. It works as advertised, within limits. Some files may be too damaged to recover. More importantly yo get to scan the disk before actually recovering, and it will give you a list of what it thinks it can recover.
My experience was that it recovered approx 85% of the data.
YMMV but they do have a trial.

    Apple mail app freezes after first use after reset.  iPad 3 and IOS 8.1.  How do resolve?

    Hi, sixfinger.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Try forcing all applications to close and restart the device.  Once this is done test to see if the Mail app functions correctly.

  • Font Auto-Activation Not Working After First Use

    Anyone else seeing this problem, or have a fix? Font auto-activation stops working after the first use. Here's what happens: Open a file that contains a font that is installed, but is disabled in Font Book. The dialog box "Application wants to use the font XXX". Click on Allow. The font will be available, as you expect. Now quit the application. Open the file again - you won't get the dialog box asking permission to use the font, and the font is not available. This happens in Pages 3.0.1 and TextEdit 1.5. It happens for each individual font - in other words, continuing my description, if you now open a second file that has another font that is disabled in Font Book, you'll be asked permission to use it. But once you've allowed a particular font to be used, you won't be asked permission again.

    Make a backup.  Restore the device as new.  Test the issue again.  If it persists, your device needs service.  If the issue disappears, restore your backup.  If it then reappears, then there is some form of corrupt data on the device from the backup.  You'll have to restore that data one portion at a time to determine what is causing it, or set up the device as new.

  • Flash Player about 3X slow after first use

    Recently updated to the latest version of Flash Player on a Win 7 x 64 machine. At first launch everything is perfect. But once the browser is closed (any browser) flash player slows down about 3X until I do a restart. Downgraded to an older version of FP, same behavior. This just started happening - any clue what it could be??

    Hello, I use XP/SP3 (home edition) and it is SP3-100427-1636 also along with IE6. I have Windows fully patched.
    You didn't say if you have all Windows updates but I assume you do. In August there was a cumulative Critical update for IE6, 7 and 8, so just wanted to mention that.
    Now of course I have had the same Flash Player version that you are using, but updated whenever it was available. The latest is now 10.1.85.3 which I use.
    The hardware acceleration must be working as it should for my system since I have not had to turn it off.
    What I would check is that the Shockwave Flash Object in the IE add ons is enabled and the same version of Flash Player that you are using(10.1.53.64)
    Whether using this site to turn off the hardware acceleration would make a difference or not I don't know, but you could try it.
    http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/  Right clicking on the Flash logo seems to be easier for most users, then click on Settings and then on Display Settings, UN check the box.
    Other than making sure the systems are fully patched and the SW Object is correct I don't know what would be causing the slowness. You could verify that the Flash files are correct, sometimes during an Uninstall of the older version of Flash Player an old file may have not been removed.
    Thanks,

  • Hp 6500 (all-in-one) "General Printing Error (Ox610000f6)" displayed after first use!

    I unpacked my new hp 6500 All-in-One (wireless) today. I was receiving my first fax on the hp 6500 when it stopped printing midway and started to display "ERROR. General Printer Error (Ox610000f6). Refer to printer documentation." I have turned it off and unplugged it many times. It does not work at all. Error message has been displayed all day. This is ridiculous. If I can't resolve this tomorrow it's going back to the store and I'm getting another brand.
    There is also NO reference for the error code. Weak.

    The original poster just acquired their printer.  In this case, the solution was to simply replace it as it was still under warranty.
    The error code indicates an internal detected logic fault.  These fall into two classes:  transient events and faults do to failed HW.  Transient events are often solved by simply power cycling the printer after disconnecting all I/O.  Permanent faults are typically not repairable by the user.
    I understand your frustration.  If the printer is still under warranty, then simply ask H-P to replace it.
    Other solutions are to reset the printer's NVRAM.  For those with an Officejet 6500, the reset method is to press and hold the * and 6 keys while plugging in power and then continue to hold for another 10 seconds.

  • Adobe reader 9.2 hangs up after first use on web

    I downloaded 9.2 and when I use it in firefox I get one use after I accept the agreement  then it freezes. So I have to uninstall and reinstall click agree and then I get one use and have to do the hole thing over again. Someone suggested to go into tools in firefox and options go to Adobe Acrobat reader and select use adobe reader 9.2 from the drop down list. I did this and it works however, the download box also comes up every time when I do it this way. Is there a way I can fix this without getting the download box all the time?

    I'm having the same issue.
    I installed 9.2 because I wanted to be able to fill in a pdf form to print. Once I installed 9.2 I had the same problem as above and also I cannot even open a pdf from a web site.
    Any ideas?

  • Paint Tool stops working after first use. CS6

    I saved the file and it starting working again. I painted one stroke and it would not paint anymore. Really annoying.

    In versions of PSE prior to PSE 11, quit the editor, then restart it while holding down ctrl+alt+shift/command+option+shift. Keep the keys down till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
    For PSE 11, go to the editor preferences>general, click this button and restart the editor:

  • I am using iPad 3 and I try to use 30-pin Digital AV adaptor for mirroring on my Samsung HD TV.  Unfortunately it is not a full screen projection.  Anyone can help?

    I am using iPad 3 and I try to use 30-pin Digital AV adaptor for mirroring on my Samsung HD TV.  Unfortunately it is not a full screen projection.  Anyone can help?

    The iPad Screen is almost square, HD TVs are rectangular so will never be full screen.  When watching movies, the movies native aspect ratio will be used rather than the iPads screen aspect ratio so will look full screen if the movie is full screen, but most likely will be seen in wide screen letter box format. with black bars across the top and bottom as that what most movies from iTunes are in, format wise

  • My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. What should I do?

    My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. I believe there may be a problem with the battery or the backlight. I've had my screen replaced once by some stooges. What should I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    When it  says place the iPod in recoverymode use one of these programs.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Getting audio but no picture using Digital AV Adaptor

    I have an ipad 3 running 6.0. I use the Digital AV Adaptor to play movies through my monitor, usually via the Videos or Cinexplayer apps.
    I travel a lot and the adaptor works really well at home and at the hotels that I stay in.
    However, I'm currently in the US for a while and staying at a Marriott. At this hotel both apps indicate that the picture is playing via the external monitor but I'm not getting any picture, only audio?
    The hotel tech support can't suggest a reason.

    There's a difference between a receiver simply switching HDMI inputs which I originally thought you were using throughout the chain, and one that converts other input sources such as component/composite/S-video and output that signal via HDMI, possibly upscaling on the way.
    If it's the same model receiver or very near, then there's a good chance you'll get it working, it just may be that there's an option buried in a menu somewhere you haven't set. Do Onkyo have a user forum somwehere you could ask?

    Hello brianrice,
    From the product page at the Apple store for the Lightning Digital AV Adaptor:
    Use the Lightning Digital AV Adapter with your iPad with Retina display, iPad mini, iPhone 5, and iPod touch (5th generation) with Lightning connector. The Lightning Digital AV Adapter supports mirroring of what is displayed on your device screen — including apps, presentations, websites, slideshows, and more — to your HDMI-equipped TV, display, projector, or other compatible display in up to 1080p HD.
    It also outputs video content — movies, TV shows, captured video — to your big screen in up to 1080p HD. Simply attach the Lightning Digital AV Adapter to the Lightning connector on your device and then to your TV or projector via an HDMI cable (sold separately).

  • Internal camera failure after software updates...first skype couldn't......

    Hello!
    I am having internal camera failure after software updates...first skype couldn't find the camera, and now photo booth also says camera is not connected. Its a brand new MacBook Pro which has been working fine for a month, but after a software update (the blinking message said i had 13 new things to update...you know what I'm talking about right?) all of a sudden Skype couldnt find a camera, so i went to the skype community and tried some things (like trashing skype) but now photo booth says no camera detected, which is weird cause the camera is built into the computer..
    Please help!
    Thanks
