HT4108 Vga adapter for ipad not supported

I've been using the vga adapter with a projector, but of late I've not been able to use it with my ipad2.

Hi nlrutt,
You do not mention whether your issue - a 30 pin to VGA adapter not working with your iPad - is with an Apple adapter or not. I will assume that it is and therefore it should function correctly.
I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iOS: About Apple Digital AV Adapters
Specifically -
Troubleshooting
If you encounter an issue using the Apple Digital AV Adapter or VGA Adapter:
Disconnect and reconnect the adapter from the iOS device and display.
Connect directly to the TV, projector, or external display using a known-good VGA or HDMI cable.
Remove any VGA or HDMI extension cables or converters.
Note that accessories that convert a VGA or HDMI signal to other video formats (DVI, Composite, Component) are not supported.
Ensure that you are using the latest version of iOS. Some Apple Digital AV Adapters require iOS 5.1 or later.
Note: When using an Apple Digital AV Adapter manufactured before early 2012 with iPad (3rd generation), you may see the "This accessory is not supported" alert. Dismissing the alert will allow you to use the adapter.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

VGA Adapter for iPad

Help. I built a photo presentation on my iPad using the Keynote app. yesterday I stopped into the Apple store and picked up a VGA Adapter so I could view the presentation via projector. I can't seem to get it to work. The projector works with my laptop, but not the iPad. Any ideas out there?

I would troubleshoot by trying out a monitor rather then the projector
then I would try using apps I know to support the adaptor like video and youtube and pictures and the likes
and see where that lead me

After IOS 7, i am no longer able to play Netflix V.5.0.2 on TV with the VGA adapter for IPAD 2

Once IOS7 was realesed I upgraded my IPAD 2 software. Later i upgraded Netflix version for IOS 7 and suddenly i could no longer display Netflix on my tv using the cable VGA to IPAD adapter.
At first a alert appeared saying that i needed to disable air play, but did not know how to do it. When a bugged and Fixed version for Netflix came out, I upgraded it and now the only thing tha is displayed on the TV are subtitles but no image.
Can someone help me?

That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

I have an iPad 2 that I want to use with video mirroring to give lectures with. I bought a VGA Adapter for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod as I want to be able to connect with any TV, monitor or projector for lectures, not just an HD device.. After plugging in my iPad to the VGA adapter and then to the video device, it appears that there is no connection with the iPad. Anybody have any thoughts?

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)

Why do iPhones/iPad not support Flash Player/Java and what are my alternatives for browsing sites using these plug-ins?

Why do iPhones/iPad not support Flash Player/Java and what are my alternatives for browsing sites using these plug-ins?

There are also iSwifter, Photon, Skyfire, etc., some only support Flash some support Java and Flash.
Adobe never made a version of Flash for iOS and closed their mobile flash division a couple of years ago. You can get Flash on other personal devices but you will be using a 2 year old version that has not been patched for security vulnerabilities.
When the original iPhone was released Mr. Jobs said it would never run Java as it was old technology and a security risk. Nothing has changed since.

Having problems with my VGA adaptor for iPad.

I bought the VGA adaptor for iPad from BB the other day, and when it arrived, I could not get it to work with my iPad (iPad 1 with latest OS). I tried adjusting settings on my monitor (I'm using it with my second computer monitor, a 24" AOC brand), but I could not get anything to display. I tried plugging it into my new iPhone 4S, and it worked flawlessly with every application. I then tried using it with my new iPod Touch, with latest OS installed, and it would not do anything either. So I have this adaptor for iPad, and it works with my iPhone 4S, but not my iPad or iPod Touch. Does anyone out there have any answers or suggestions?
Thank you for your time...

JCinINDY-
The iPad 1 only sends video to the adapter when a slideshow or a video is playing. You can not see the normal iPad 1 display on a VGA screen. It does not support "mirroring" the way an iPhone 4S will.
That said, it is possible you have a bad connector on the iPad 1. If you can take it to an Apple Store Genius, they should be able to verify whether or not it is working correctly.

VGA adapter for Itouch 4th gen

I bought a VGA adapter for my Itouch to use on computer monitors. I have one at home and one at work. When I try to play a movie off my Itouch, I get the message "The connected display is not authorized to play protected movies". Is there some way to authorize my computer monitors to play these movies? I would use my laptop (HP) but it skips and freezes up when playing movies in Itunes, hence the adapter and Itouch.

That is because of the DRM that is on the movie. VGA is good quality and can be copied.
You can either use a DIgital AV adopter since it can't be copied.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD098ZM/A?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjE
Or an adopter with less resolution than the VGA.
You can also display the movie on TV using the iPod and either the Apple iPod AV cable or the Universal Dock with an S-video and audio cable (see iPod: TV Out support for more information).

Fake Apple Macbook Pro Air VGA-Adapter for mini DisplayPort

Hello everybody,
in November 2009 I ordered a VGA-Adapter for my MacBook Pro at Amazon.de. I used it occasionally over the last year. But today it didn't show anything before a presentation. I went to a local Apple service provider and he said it's a fake one. I didn't see another one the last year, but he's right. I made some pictures you can see here:
http://www.abload.de/img/img_09276ay7.jpg
http://www.abload.de/img/img_09283len.jpg
I'm not sure but I thought I would get an official one when I bought this. I checked my feedback at Amazon (because it's from a third party seller) and I mentioned that I was wondering why the adapter was in an official DVI for mini DisplayPort packaging. It was 10€ cheaper than the regular one. Not too much to think it's not official.
It's way over warranty time, but I'm ****** it's not working after using it only 10 times over the year (just for presentations). What can I do after buying a fake one? Go back to the seller or not?

Going back to the seller would be your only recourse, although Amazon might be able to assist if the seller advertised the adapter as a genuine Apple part and sold you a fake instead. After this much time, though, there's probably nothing Amazon can do, and it's doubtful the seller will do anything either since the adapter apparently worked without problem for over a year. Even if the part were genuine Apple it would be out of any warranty at this point.
Time to just buy a new adapter, it would seem, if you haven't already.
Regards.

Is there a firewire to HDMI adapter for IPAD 4?

Is there a firewire to HDMI adapter for IPAD 4?

It's called the "Lightning" connector. Here is the adapter you need:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter
The Lightning Digital AV Adapter mirrors exactly what you see on your device so that everyone in the room can enjoy it on your widescreen TV, video projection screen, or other HDMI-compatible display. The Lightning Digital AV Adapter also supports video out for watching movies, TV shows, and more.
You can also stream wirelessly using AirPlay but that requires Apple TV. Streaming music or other audio requires an AirPort Express or compatible device.

The vga adapter (for a Benq projector, for example) is only for Ipod touch 4g? I have an 2g. Doesn't work for this?

Thanks in advance.

The VGA is for the 4G iPod only. The 2G can use the composite and component cables.

I have an ipod touch and just updated my software to ios 7.1.2. Now I get the message that my adapter, accessory does not support my device. Is there a new adapter that I need to buy that works with the ios 7.1.2?

i have an ipod touch and just updated my software to ios 7.1.2. Now I get the message that my adapter, accessory does not support my device. Is there a new adapter that I need to buy that works with the ios 7.1.2?

This is not my problem. However, I think it may be related to an old speaker. I was using the 30 pin adapter for about a week after the upgrade to 7.1.2. But I think with the update the speaker won't work anymore. I will try with a new speaker system. Thank you for trying to assist.
