Ipad gen 3 to tv (HDMI)

i bought an adapter from amazon, to connect my ipad to my tv.
apparently it's simply 'plug & play', however i have plugged and nothing is playing.
is there something that i need to do to get the image mirrored on my tv screen?
i can't see anything online, and i bought this as a short term alternative until i get an apple tv. 
i have everything plugged in, hdmi in tv and adapter. adapter into bottom of the ipad. 
nothing is working - youtube, the video app, a movie app or netflix. 
does anyone know what i should do to get it to show... ?!
Also it doesn't give me the option for airplay on my ipad..

Backup the 3G iPod to iCloud and then restore the 5G from that iCloud backup
iOS: How to back up
Not that non-Tunes purchases like synced photos or music from CD are not part of the iCloud backup

  • Can you transfer iPhone 5 apps to your iPad gen 3 ?

    can you transfer iPhone 5 apps to your iPad gen 3 ?

    If they are compatible with the ipad, then yes.
    All of your apps should be on your computer.  Just sync them to the ipad.

  • IPad (gen 3) wifi download speeds

    I recently upgraded my Comcast Internet to 50Mbps download speeds.  Using the Speedtest.app I am showing around 30 Mbps on both my iPad (gen 3) and iPhone 4s.  I was wondering if anyone has been able to achieve faster download speeds than that on an iPad/iPhone. 
    I was hoping that it would be faster considering my three year old Mac gets 55 Mpbs when connected via ethernet to the internet and that same Mac using wireless (in same room as wireless router and iPad/iPhone) gets over 50Mbps.
    Thanks for sharing.
    p.s. I am using an Airport Extreme AC wireless router

    From what you've told us, the iPad should see the printer.  No, you do not need any additional software on your iPad.  You just need to be sure the HP drivers are current.

  • IPad Gen 3 had classic iOS8 glitch, 24hrs later of little to no usage its Died Apple Tech said a fault code came up but wouldn't elaborate - just the up sell to either a new Air2 or a refurbished Gen 3 @ $360AUD !! Anyone else??

    ipad Gen 3 dead... Apple tech says major fault.. seems  to have occurred after iOS 8 update and even though its 2 years old its been only lightly used.. Seems very sus with the new Air2 out and a perfectly good iPad just all of a sudden dead- Help !!

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • TS1702 The iOS update to 5.1.1 is not coming up on my general tab for my iPad gen 1! What can I do to update?

    I'm trying to update my iOS to 5.1.1 on my iPad gen 1! I understand that the update automatically comes up on the general tab under settings. I have yet to see the update come up under the general tab. What can I do to update my iPad?

    You do not have iOS 5 on your iPad so you have to update by using a computer via the latest version of iTunes. You can connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under the devices heading. Click on the Summary Tab on the right. Click on Check for Update.
    After you update to iOS 5, you will have Software Update in you settings and can update via WiFi OTA.

  • Peer-to-Peer Airplay not working with iPad (Gen. 3)

    I'm in the process of testing "wireless projection" solutions. Since I have access to an iPad (gen. 3), iPad Retina, iPad Air and iPhone 5c all running iOS 8.0, with a pair of Apple TV's, Model 1469, one ATV a wired connection and one ATV no network connection at all.  Both devices were updated using Configurator to get the activation setup. 
    Once activate, they were then set up in their respective locations, and the settings were verified (i.e. airplay is on, networks are connected/disconnected as required) and tested using each of the iOS devices listed above.
    All 4 iOS devices could see the networked Apple TV as expected.  But the Gen 3 iPad was the only device that didn't pick up the Peer-to-peer Apple TV when testing the standalone unit.  I tried to reset the iPad, turned off and on the radios, but the device will not pick up the PTP ATV.
    Has anyone else had any luck getting a Gen 3 iPad to work with the Peer-to-Peer with out a network?
    According to the following KB, Use AirPlay to wirelessly stream content from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you should be able to use a 3rd gen iPad to peer to peer airplay.

    iPad 3rd generation doesn't support Peer-to-Peer Airplay. Apple quietly said it was for iOS devices introduced in LATE 2012. Like for Handoff; certain devices with the latest Wi-Fi specifications can get this feature. The iPad 3 was introduced in EARLY 2012. I tried, but it didn't work. Here is what I found in the Apple TV Section.
    AirPlay requires an Apple TV (2nd generation or later) with an iOS device running iOS 4.3 or later or a Mac with iTunes 10.2 or later. Some features require the latest software.
    Peer-to-peer AirPlay requires a Mac (2012 or later) with OS X Yosemite or an iOS device (late 2012 or later) with iOS 8; and an Apple TV (3rd generation rev A, model A1469 or later) with Apple TV software 7.0 or later.
    AirPlay Mirroring is available with iPhone 4s or later; iPad 2 or later; iPad mini; iPod touch (5th generation); and iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer), and Mac Pro (Late 2013) with OS X Mountain Lion or later.
    Dual-screen capability is available with iPhone 4s or later, iPad 2 or later, iPad mini, and iPod touch (5th generation).

  • I cannot open GarageBand on my iPad gen. The GB icon steps shaded and is labeled 'pause' or 'waiting'. My iOS 5.1.1 GarageBand ver. 1.2.1'

    I cannot open GarageBand on my iPad gen 1. The GB icon stay darkened (shaded) and is labeled 'pause' or 'waiting'. My iOS 5.1.1 GarageBand ver. 1.2.1. Sometimes a dialog box appears and reads, "unable to complete download" and "consider freeing up space, go to settings." Problem is I'm not tying to download GarageBand upgrade because it requires iOS 6 or higher. Does Apple have. Archive sites with older versions of GarageBand?

    No, it will still stay as IOS 7.0.4

  • HT1414 when trying to restore my ipad gen 1 it hangs on "Verifying ipad restore with Apple" then returns an error 1602

    I have tried to restore my ipad gen 1. When it gets to the Verigying ipad restore with Apple" it seems to hang then returns the error 1602. I have the black screen on my ipad so cannot get to the shut down bar. The ipad has not been tampered with or jail broken. it suddenly would only show the apple symbol for 5 or so seconds then go to a blank screen and then 30 or so seconds later show the apple symbol again. This only happens when plugged into its factory charger.

    Have you tried the troubleshooting on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1603 ?

  • My iPad gen one keeps crashing while I'm right in the middle of stuff especially while online

    Hi my iPad gen keeps crashing.  It happens during apps usage, and Internet use mostly.  Usually it happens right when I'm writing a message. Sometimes my apps won't even start up, it's like I'm frozen in time.  My software is up to date so I'm not sure what else to do.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.

  • IPad gen 1 compatibility with Airplay?

    I purchased Apple TV but don't get mirroring on my iPad gen 1.   I asked specifically at the store owhether gen 1 was compatible with airplay and told all would be fine.  I since saw a comment here that says iPad 2 and later is required.  Is that true?  What are my options?  I want to stream photos and music.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes, you need the iPad 2 or better for AirPlay mirroring, but you can still use the basic AirPlay feature:
    Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
