How to get iPhone 3GS Composite Video output to work

I have a iPhone 3GS with the latest 3.x FW (Updated 2/6/2010). I bought a Apple Composite video cable which lists iPhone 3GS as a supported product: MB129LL/B (one with 30 pin dock connector, composite, audio L&R, USB, power adapter).
When I connect the cable to the iPhone, audio output from music works (but is a little quiet compared to other inputs to my stereo).
However, I cannot get the video output to show any video. When the iPhone is connected my TV goes from a Blue Screen to Black, so it seems that something is being output.
I have tried both Apple and 3rd party cables with no luck. I had the same results with the previous 3.0 FW. Phone is new as of 11/2009.
I have tried photo slide shows while connected and I also purchased a product to make a iPhone compatible video.
In all cases, the TV screen remains black, but the iPhone screen shows the video fine.

Have you tried connecting other composite video sources to your TV, to be sure the problem isn't in your TV set?

        Hello Snosilla! I'm so sorry for all the confusion and for all the time taken to activate service with us! I do see that the iPhone 5c is $99.99 right now. The iPhone 5s is actually $199.99. There's no need to call Pam anymore, we can take over from here.
    I've followed you in the forums. Please accept me, and follow me back. Then, send me a Direct Message and I can look into this for you. If you do not have an active line yet, I may need to get you through to our activations department, but I will do all I can!
    Thank you!

  • IPhone 4S USB Video Output

    Hello,
    I know there are video breakout cables that plug in the dock connector (30 pin) for both component and composite video output. With the 4S 1080p capability I know there is a dock adapter that allows for HDMI output via a separate cable.
    What I want to know is with all the new USB monitors (USB 2.0 and 3.0 powered and display monitors via a USB connection) about to hit the market is anyone aware of whether or not the standard USB to 30 pin docking cable can be plugged into such a monitor for mirroring or display?
    Thanx,
    Macport

    Brendan,
    Thanx for getting back to me on this. You've got to imagine it will just be a matter of time before someone makes this happens. For now though your response helps my decision making as to a choice of mobile monitor for presentations.

    Where did you get it from? If you're in the U.S. There is no such thing as a factory unlocked iPhone 3Gs.

    Connect your iPhone to your computer. Tp your pc should recognize your iPhone as a camera. Use what ever application you have on the pc to transfer files from a camera to your computer.

  • Trying to use my iPhone 3GS as audio output

    This might sound a little convoluted, but here it goes.
    I'm trying to get some use for my iPhone 3GS, and i though i might be able to connect it to an audio system and stream music from my Mac library to it. If i use iTunes, ideally, i could use my iPhone 5S to control iTunes, and therefore, control the music that's being output through the 3GS.
    Is this even possible? Using my iPhone 3GS as audio output from a Mac, preferabily using iTunes instead of 3rd party app?
    Thanks!

    $25 is a little steep.... Since i'm trying to make this as cheap as possible (I guess for a little more than that, i can buy a used Airport Express and save me the trouble)

    There are unsupported mechanisms of doing what you want. You can search for iTunesFS.

    Have you tried doing turning the battery level display off and then General -> "Reset all settings"? You won't loose any data and that should do the trick.

    I recently changed my wifi password at home and now my iphone will not connect.  It will not ask me for a password just says will not connect to network.  Advice on how to get iphone to ask network password for wifi?

    First, try tapping on the network in the Wi-Fi settings and then tap "forget this network". Then reselect the network in the main Wi-Fi settings screen and see if will then ask for a password. If not, try resetting the Network Settings in the General -> Reset section and then reconnecting to your W-iFi.
