IPad 2 vga mirroring does not work.

Please help.  I've just bought an iPad 2 to use in my classroom.  I bought the iPad->VGA-out adapter.  I've hooked it up to an LCD projector, and no joy.  I have "widescreen" enabled under video settings.  I also have a colleague here with me at the workshop who has an iPad 2 and he plugs his in and it mirrors immediately.  I cannot get mine to mirror.  Do I have a crappy iPad or is there a setting hidden somewhere that I can't find?  He and I are banging our heads against this one.  Can't figure out why one iPad works and the other does not.  Any clues?

Is this the cable that you have?

That's what you need to mirror an iPad 2
Not VGA

  • My Ipad 2 external speakers does not work and headphones has popping sound. This all occured at the same time as my Iphone and Ipod headphones only played mono (no, the "mono" option is not on). How can there be audio issue for all these devices?

    My IPad 2 external speaker does not work and the original headphones have popping sound when used. This all occurred at the same time as my IPhone and IPod headphones only plays mono (and no, the "mono" option is not on) with the original headphones, as well as, other headphones tested.  How can there be audio issue for all these devices at the same time?
    As you may have noted from the list of Apple devices I own, I believed in the Apple and the products it was producing; but it is hard to believe from my experience and the other voices within the Apple Community that we are all experiencing the same hardware issues. Especially since I recently, I upgraded to an IPhone 4g (no, my faith in IPhone 5 series is very little) and is experiencing the same audio problem as described above. So now, I am off to the Apple store again to be told that it’s a hardware problem on new IPhone. Really? Apple, what happen to the pride in the product you were producing?

    Everyone does things a little differently. I love to "jam " along with iTunes ( or old Lp's) . Always have. That's where/how I've learned to play .
    I'm sure leonieDF is giving a proper way to jam along on a keyboard with an iTune. He blows my mind all the time with what he knows. Nuff respects to him !
    What I do is make a GB project I call "Jam With". I'll make several new tracks that are blank. Just has a few instruments named in the blank tracks. You can change those per song ...
    Because I'm not concerned about changing the pitch / key.... of the iTune or the tempo ... I can simply play along with it.
    Peace,

    As of Firefox 4.0 and newer one needs at least OSX 10.5+ and Intel hardware.
    The latest you can use on your Intel with OSX 10.4.11 is Firefox 3.6.25 (released recently) which can be found at http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    If you were to update to say OSX 10.5.8 then you can use Firefox 9.0.1

  • TS1702 On the game "pinball HD" for the Ipad the right flipper does not work on my 2 ipads

    I have two ipads one is the original that first came out and the other is an Ipad mini.  I have installed on both the piball game "pinball HD".   On both devices the right flipper on the game does not work.  Seems strange it is happening on both my devices which leads me to belive it is a software issue.  Was wondering if any one else has experianced this problem.  I would not mind so much if it is free, but it was not.  I have sent an email to the developer but so far no answer.  Is any one else experiancing this problem ??

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
    See:

    You can also try a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) before installing a newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • Ipad 2 Print button does not work after 6 upgrade?

    Since we upgraded to iOS6, our print button does not work and does not find our printer.  It was working fine until iOS6.  Called an Apple Technician and he had me reset, which wiped out all of my saved information but didn't fix the print.  He then started talking about a restore but the phone line went dead.  Has anyone had this problem?

    Today's iOS 6.1 update fixed the printer problem.

  • IPad 3 Why 3G does not work after being on WiFi

    When I take my iPad 3 out of my house, I have to reboot it to get a 3G connection. The 3g icon shows that it is connected but when I try and access any connection it says no internet connection. My iPad 1 seemed to work ok. I've also tried putting it in Airplane mode and back again but this has no effect.
    Any suggestions please? Many thanks.

    All of you are not ALONE ! Most of us here in Singapore be it with Singtel, Starhub or M1 3G network, all of us with the "NewiPad" are sharing the same pain of this "Cellular data not connected" problem. When this problem occurred, one must power cycle or at least reset network setting to get the 3G data connection work again. A daily of power cycle 3~5 times for my new iPad was need. All methods like below tried but still DOES NOT fix the problem.
    1. Reset Network setting.
    2. Reset iPad back to default.
    3. Changed Singtel APN name from "e-ideas" to "internet" still the same.
    4. Changed a complete brand new sim card.
    My current fixed was, called up Singtel ISP to reset my iPad 21Mbps 3G Line in their system. In my end, I need to power off my new iPad to complete the cycle. So far it has been working fine for 42 hours now.
    By looking at the "General > About > Cellular Data Number" was "Unknown". This lead me to think it might be a bug in current new iPad iOS 5.1. To be more precise, it might narrow down to the "Big & Bad Qualcomm Radio chipset Driver" problem?
    If that was true, jess.. I truly dislike "Qualcomm inside" devices. It make me come to remembered Dopod/HTC D810 the most funniest released WM device in history. When D810 first hit the market, it does not features any gps function at all when in true fact D810 did come with "Qualcomm" GPS chipset built-in since day 1. Dopod/HTC took more than 6 months to release a very crippled firmware that included Qualcomm GPS chipset driver with lots of trouble and start announce all the customers in the world, including those who's bought D810 more than 6 months ago. What a joke!
    That's not all the "Qualcomm" funny facts. They then hit the wall again with Dopod/HTC Tytn-II, another WM cellphone with "Qualcomm 3D Graphic chip built-in, BUT WITH NO 3D DRIVER BUILT-IN". Hahaha.. what another big "QUALCOMM" historical joke of all time.
    Anyway, hopefully Apple can found the actual trouble or fixed "might be Qualcomm driver problem again?" in the next iOS 5.2 release.
    Until then, I've wishes everyone with the cellular data connection trouble eventually manage to solved your headache in any solutions provided by many and living happier with your new iPad, the same for me.

  • Screen Mirroring does not work, full of bugs.

    Hi,
    I've had a Sony Z1 for well over six months now and have got a Sony Bravia TV that supports mircast screen mirroring. When I purchased the Z1 it was on android 4.2 and the screen mirroring worked a treat, it was lag free, always responsive etc.
    But when I upgraded to 4.3, the mirroring was buggy as **bleep**, the device always disconnected, when it did connect after several attempts it would lag, black out, then disconnect again. I've tried fiddling with wifi settings as well as wifi direct etc. but no joy and I left it as that.
    When I knew 4.4 kitkat was coming to the z1 I waited as I would assume the issue would be fixed, but I upgraded to 4.4 (build: 14.3.A.0.757) today and is still full of these disconnecting and unresponsive bugs. I'm not sure what the problem is, I mirrored a samsung s4 mini and works absolutely fine (4.2) and I can mirror my sony xperia tablet z (4.3) with no issues either. I know a relative who also owns the z1 and has exactly the same issue, what also seems to happen now and then, is that half way through a mirrored session, the wifi would disable and will switch to the mobile network, then after some time, back to wifi again; yet this never happened on 4.2?
    Is there a fix or a way to solve these issues? It's rather annoying having such a great feature that doesn't want to work on a flagship. 
    Thanks.

    I had some issues with Miracast on my Z1 but with 4.2 and 4.3 firmware. It was loosing connection or kept saying that I don't have HDCP. I was connecting using Netgear Push2TV.
    On 4.4  (.757) it works quite stable. On Z1C with 4.3 I wasn't able to miracast at all.
    The same goes with screen mirroring to Z2 tablet. Works fine from Z1 to Z2 (both KitKat, altough one touch pairing is a disaster and not working at all), but you can forget about it using Z1C and Android 4.3.

  • IPad and apple tv does not work

    MY iPad does not see apple tv in home sharing .. Every thing is on sharing  but it just not seeing my iPad..

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    The Apple TV is not supposed to see your iPad. It is your iPod that sees the Apple TV, and when it does, it will display an  airplay icon in the playback bar of the content you are watching. Tap the airplay icon, choose the Apple TV and the content will stream to it.

  • HT204291 Mirroring my ipad on apple tv does not work

    I've just purchased Apple tv and tried to mirror my ipad, I see the Airplay Icon in the task bar of my ipad and I click on it and it turns blue then a few seconds later it goes off. Am I doing something wrong ? Do you need to go on a certain screeen on the Apple tv to view the mirroring or something ?  Can anyone please help ?

    Try restarting the iPad, the router and your Apple TV. If the problem persists you may have a problem on your network.

  • IPad 2 Video Mirroring Does Not Fill HDTV Screen

    I have the iPad 2 connected to the appropriate HDMI input of a 40" HDTV. It (sort of?) works as advertised; what is on the iPad display is also on the TV screen, a mirror image. However, the image only fills the middle 1/3 of the TV screen, with black borders above and below (with iPad oriented vertically). The image quality is good and in the correct scale. When the iPad is oriented horizontally, the image fills about half of the screen.
    Does anyone know how to make the image fill the entire screen? I could find nothing in "Settings" nor anything on the TV. Thanks.

    The screen proportions are different if I am not mistaken. The iPad has a 3:4 screen, not a 16:9. I would think the only way to do it would be to have the TV stretch it? But maybe with an HDMI connection, that is not possible.

  • Satellite L300 - VGA output does not work

    I am attempting to set up a media center via my Toshiba L300 laptop by connecting it to my VIZIO 37" LCD via the VGA (RGB) port to the component in the TV.
    I connected it all up, but the TV consistantly says "no signal".
    Is there something that I am not doing properly?
    The control panel also says there is only one monitor installed on the laptop and I am told that there is supposed to be two installed as the TV serves as one of them.
    Can someone shed some light on this for me?

    I did however get it to work properly via a VGA (RGB) cable directly to the back of the TV. There is an input jack in the back of the television and it's working properly that way. I'd still like to use the component cables though if possible due to rendering better quality. Thanks again.

  • HT201335 Airplay mirroring does not work

    I am having trouble getting the Airplay mirroring to work between my iMac (10.7.5) and my brnad new Apple TV (latest version).  I can play music and video from iTunes to it but cannot get the icon to change in the top bar on the iMac.  All devices are on the same network, and I am able to send videos from my iPhone to the Apple TV as well.  The iMac is connected to a CenturyLink Router vis a wired Ethernet connection and the Apple TV device is connected via wireless. I even turned on the wireless connection on the iMac so they were both on the wireless connection.  I have tried pretty much eveything I can see listed here in the help sites to have the deive show up and I cannot find what I am missing
    Your help would be appreciate!.

    Sorry. I should have included this in my original message. The iMac was purchased in 2011 and is a MC813LL which according to the website should work. Thanks for the quick response though.

  • I have the new IPad and the sound does not work with games but works everywhere else, any clue?

    IIiiiiii

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
