Ipad1 running ios5 cannot output screen through vga adapter

My iPad running ios4 is able to project its screen output onto a projector using the vga adapter.
After upgrading to ios5, projecting onto a screen is not possible. The projector screen remains blank after connecting the vga adapter.
The same adapter and projecter were used for a iPad 2 and the projection is fine.
Confirmed this is a problem with iPad running ios5.

Why not use a DVI output, almost all external displays have DVI or HDMI input.

  • VGA signal output type mDP-VGA adapter

    Howdy.
    Working on a way to plug our new mini (early 09) into a crusty ol' analogue tv, whose best quality input is up to 576p component. Tv manual say to plug component source (either YPbPr, YCbCr or Y B-Y R-Y) into the component input on the tv (Y Pb Pr).
    My understanding of signal types is limited, and I am looking at a VGA to component converter as my first preference option since svideo and composite are so crusty.
    Can anyone be really specific on the exact type of signal output from the miniDP-VGA adapter? As far as I know, most computers output a vga signal referred to as RGB, which SOME tvs can read via component in. Can anyone tell me if this RGB equates to any of the above signals (such that i could simply use a vga-component cable that I already possess), or if i will definitely need to get a converter box? I have plugged my older mac mini into the tv (using dvi-vga adapter supplied and then vga-component cable i purchased form some dodgy online ebayer) and had no luck.
    can anyone tell me the potential ramifications of messing around with this stuff? Can inputting incorrect signals damage any of my hardware?
    does anyone have any brilliant ideas on how to run an early 2009 mac mini into a tv via component? At this stage it is going to cost me around $200 for a decent converter box , and being a younger generation I want a solution ASAP and would prefer not to wait weeks for shipping from the States.
    It seems as though the new minis only do dvi-d, while my older one has dvi-i - this is why the dvi-video adapter is not compatible with the early 09 models. i have spoken to apple tech support several times but it seems as though they are getting their dvi types mixed up and don't understand my predicament fully, as their suggestions are not possible with dvi-d. Is there such a thing as a DVI-d to DVI-I adapter? Would it make any difference?
    Any clarification people have to offer on this one would be greatly appreciated.

    A few comments; first off, you can't damage a TV with wrong signal types, although some old TVs can be damaged from wrong timings. That's going to depend a lot on the TV's age whether it has a more modern, multi-sync type chassis or not.
    The Mini DVI output on the new mini is DVI-I. That is how it is able to support the Mini DVI to VGA Adapter that Apple sells for the new mini. But you are right it no longer supports the Mini DVI to Video Adapter. But that is an issue with drivers and has nothing to do with the mini having a DVI-I output or not. But it is definitely Mini DVI-I.
    So to connect a component converter box, you could use either the Mini DisplayPort or the Mini DVI output of the mini. I would tend to recommend the Mini DVI as being somewhat more standard. However, a Mac really wants to see something called a plug-and-display driver, which is also known as EDID, whenever it is connected to a display. So try and see if you can find a component video converter having a VGA input that has an EDID loaded into it or else the Mac will not be happy and it could all be money down the drain that would have better been spent on a new TV.
    Hopefully you will get some more specific information from someone else. Good luck.

  • IPod classic-projector connection through VGA adapter

    Can I connect iPod classic to a projector using VGA adapter?

    Do a Hard Reset, while connected to the Clarion, hopefully your iPod is fully charged
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the Red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.

  • I have a macbook pro with lion os. and i want to connect it to my optoma dlp projector. when i connect through a mini display to vga adapter in MBP it detects as OPTOMA XGA but no image on the screen.

    i have a macbook pro. i want to connect it to projector and i have a minidisplay to vga adapter. i could connect my MBP to benq projector successfully and for  all other displays( Monitors). but when i connect it to optoma projector, MBP detects the display as OPTOMA XGA but nothing on bigger screen. i tried changing the resolution and refresh rate also but no changes.
    In my office we got benq projectors , for that it is working very well.(plug and play).
    and also i want to say that there is no problem with the optoma projector seems, because all other windows laptops are working well with that.
    i was struggling with this since one month. i googled it could not find anything supportive for my problem. please help me regarding this. i am new to apple. i hope there must be genius around here.

    I need to know which MacBook Pro you have.  Only mid-2010  and later MBP's transmit sound through MiniDisplay Port to HDMI.  I have no information about the Mac Pro, so you might want to go to that Forum and ask there.

  • HT2188 I bought my iPhone 4s Nov. 20.  I updated immediately to ios6.0 and cannot make it through even 1 day without the battery going down to almost zero.  Thats with apps closed, wifi off, screen off, etc.  It's a horror.  I have to constantly keep char

    I purchased an iPhone 4s on Nov. 20th.  I immediately had to update the software to ios 6.0.1.  I cannot even get through 1 day without the phone battery losing all power.  It loses 10-20% per hour, and that's with apps closed, wifi off, bluetooth off, screen dark, updates current, etc.  You can hold the phone in your hand and watch the power go down.  It also gets very warm.  I have to charge it once or twice a day so I have it when I need it.
    I took it in to the Sprint store for diagnostics to see if there was something wrong with the phone.  They said the phone is ok, but one of the agents said it's the last update - he has had problems ever since.  He said he thought they are working on fixing it & we should be getting another update to fix it.  Is this true?  I sure hope so!  They also showed me how to reboot the phone, especially when it gets so warm.  Is there anything else I need to do?  Please help!
    This is my first iPhone and I am very frustrated and disappointed in Apple.  If it's the software, I would think they would be frantically trying to fix it.  This phone was not the cheapest phone, so the battery life should be better!

    After some troubleshooting, I decided to order a new battery.  I replaced the battery and was then able to get it to restore, however--after I restore it and it comes time to restart the phone, it gets stuck and doesn't turn on.
    Sorry, your repair ruined the iPhone.
    She does not have apple care and even though she loved this device, she isn't going to buy another iPhone because of all the problems shes had with this one (it's just over a year old).
    After you ruined the iPhone with DIY, Apple won't touch it anymore. You should have asked before all these had happened.
    I'm an android user myself and I love rooting/flashing new ROMS, so if jailbreaking her phone or doing some kind of super-restore with 3rd party programs might help, I'm all for it-
    Yeah, all Android user can think of is Jailbreaking, read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

  • My Ipod touch is running IOS5.1 and I cannot transfer photos and videos off of the unit.

    I am currently running IOS5 on my 4th gen iPod Touch and I have been having trouble moving the photos off of the unit. 
    My device shows up in iTunes, but does not show up on my list of drives like it used to before the upgrade.
    I would like to remove all of the photos off of my device without having to e-mail them to myself five at a time.
    How do I get the device to appar as a external drive again so that I can do a bulk file dump?
    Please help.
    Hearns

    If your ipod os the original (1st gen), then you do not update it.   It is running the latest software that it can handle.
    If it is a second gen, then you can update to 4.2.1.  Click check for updates in the summary tab.
    If it is a third or 4th  gen, then you can update to 4.3.3 in the same manner.

  • IMac display issues / Trying to output at 1920x1080 through VGA

    I'm having some external display issues with my 2007 Intel Core 2 Duo iMac (2.4ghz). Using the mini-DVI to VGA adapter, I plugged the VGA cable into a Samsung LCD TV (PC mode). When I originally had everything set up, I was using the TV as an extended display, with a display setting of 1920x1080.
    However, I had to get a 25 foot VGA extension cable, and now my maximum resolution is 1600x1200. Does anyone know why extending the VGA cable would do this?

    There could be any number of factors involved, but cheap cabling, or that your Mac does not have enough power to push the high quality resolution signal that distance first come to mind.

  • VGA adapter will not output 1024x768!

    I have the iPad Dock Connector to VGA Adapter connected to an iPhone 4 and an Epson EX30 projector. Apple specifies that the VGA Adapter outputs only 1024x768 for iPad and iPhone 4. The EX30 projector has no manual resolution settings, and autodetects the iPhone 4's vga signal immediately upon starting videos or slideshows.
    PROBLEM: When I run a Camera app slideshow, the photos are tiny, and surrounded by a large black border, as wide as the photos themselves. This is using photos that were shot with the high-res cam on the phone. The projector's auto-resolution info says the iPhone 4 is outputting 1280x720, instead of the correct 1024x768.
    I tried an HD video shot with the iPhone 4 in the camera roll. This time it expands to meet the left and right sides of the screen, as one would expect, with a little black border on top and bottom.
    Then I outputted a 1024x768 movie in iMovie and loaded it onto the phone. I played it, and the projector still reported resolution as 1280x720, and the movie was clearly surrounded on all sides by a black border, though much less of one than the photos were.
    What's going on here, can someone else try the VGA output from a slideshow? I called AppleCare and they had no idea, and are going to get back to me next week.

    I would like to output slideshows from the iPhone 4. What must I do? The output from the iPhone is read by my projector as 640x480! It looks terrible! Movies look okay, probably because I encoded them at 640x352. Another projector I tried claimed to receive a signal of 1280x720 but still looked awful and was still not the putative 1024x768 emitted by the iPhone 4.
    I have tried an assortment of apps to view slideshows with text: goodreader, icab (supposedly fixed the vga output problem in Nov 5 update), perfect browser, atomic web browser, and all have extremely jagged fonts. The only even slight relief I got was in a photo of a magazine ad projected via the built-in photo gallery.
    A related issue is that I can not seem to display high res jpg conversions of the slides through the browsers. Even if I load a 4000x2000 pixel jpg, the browsers that report resolution (iCab Mobile and Perfect Browser) never report above 1008x567 pixels.
    Using the same vga adapter on my iPad yields perfect results. So I was hoping that iOS4.2, which I got today, would solve the problem. No such luck. I can not see any improvement.

  • Output 1440p through MDP to HDMI 2?

    Hello there,
    I have a mid 2011 27" iMac, and I recently bought an LG 4k TV. I have everything (iMac, Xbox, cable TV, bluray) running through an Onkyo TX-NR636, which is a 4K AV reciever, and then one HDMI cable runs to the TV. It's all very fancy.
    MY question is this: If I have 4k capability in my receiver, tv, and correct HDMI 2 cables; why does my iMac only output 1080p resolution in dual screen?
    Now, I'm very aware that I won't get a 4K out of it, but I was at least hoping for an iMac equivalent of 1440p, so what am I missing?
    Thanks

    Hi ddp86,
    Sorry to hear you're having problems with your new machine. Troubleshooting this issue can be a little difficult for a couple of reasons:
    1.) As you're using a 3rd party adapter, Apple technically doesn't support the configuration. While it SHOULD work just fine, if it doesn't then you can't call Apple or visit a Genius Bar for assistance.
    2.) Have you tried the adapter with another TV to take that out of the equation? From a troubleshooting perspective, if you had a MiniDisplay Port to DVI or VGA adapter (one of Apple's) that would also be helpful in troubleshooting. Then we could determine if it's the Moshi adapter, the TV or the machine itself.
    My vote, in supporting issues like this, is to try a different adapter. You can always bring in the computer to the Apple Store, every Genius bar I've visited is equipped to offer support with portable computer / video adapter troubleshooting.

  • Cannot update mini displayport to vga adapter firmware 1.0

    How come i cannot update the firmware,It says "The Updater could not find a Mini DisplayPort to Vga Adapter to update even though the adapter is already connected to my Philips HDTV.At first, the image in my philips hdtv is not clear as my secondary display plus my primary display which is my macbook aluminum has a black portion on the left and right of the screen about an inch wide so i did a little search on the net and it says i need to update the firmware so i downloaded it but i cant update it so im stuck at a crappy ,vivid image or display on my philips hdtv and a small image or display in my macbook everytime my display port is connected.I think my Philips HDTV is compatible with the display port because the image in my macbook can be mirrored but as i said the image is not clear really blurry but i maybe wrong so my second question is how do i know my Philips HDTV is compatible with my macbook as a secondary display?

    1. I don't believe you can have anything hooked up to the adapter. all you need is the adapter plugged in without screen.
    2. how old is the adapter? this update is about a year old, so chances are your adapter has the updated & probably newer firmware installed.
    I got the same error with mine back then as it already had the update when I bought it, even tho I did so BEFORE apple posted the firmware, so units leaving the factory already had the updates.
    I agree with kmac1036, having recently run the update (or rather attempted to). You can't have a monitor connected to the adapter. It's also likely that your adapter is the newer version, even though the software download is being prompted. I had read on some tech blog that said the model # on the newer adapter has a -1 after it to indicate it's the revision with the updated firmware.

  • LCD becomes fuzzy after connects with T61p through VGA port

    Hello,
    I have a Dell E207WFP LCD which is previously connected to a Dell desktop through VGA. Today I connect it to my T61p through VGA using the same cable. I am able to setup the resolution as native resolution which is 1680*1050 @ 60Hz. However, I found that the screen is obviously fuzzy than connect to the desktop. The font is not sharp. I tried to adjust the cleartype font in Win7 and the bright and contrast in the LCD but nothing helps. I connect it back to the desktop and it works fine... Both computers run Win7. Could you please let me know what could be the possible reason? Thank you very much!
    My T61p uses FX 570m video card.

    This is hard to judge without a picture. It could just be a low-quality VGA port which is not a defect but an attribute or a nature of many laptop VGA ports.
    Remember that the VGA is an analog-type video connector and some sort of blurriness is to be expected, especially at higher resolutions, this is because the GPU processes the image digitally as well as the LCD, but the VGA is analog so the image has to go through 2 conversions.
    In conclusion: VGA is great for use in projectors and other devices with resolution no higher than 1280x1024. Above this resolution, defects are likely to appear.
    For higher resolutions I'd suggest purchasing the Advanced Mini Dock which features the digital DVI port.

  • 23" LCD screen (LG) VGA w/nVidia GeForce2 MX on a G4 Quicksilver

    I just bought an LCD screen not too long ago, and it works fine with my old G3 (ATI 3D Rage Pro 6MB) although I have to use a Mac to VGA converter with it. However, on my G4 which has VGA and ADC outputs, when I connect with a VGA cable, the graphics don't look good at all. It's very streaky; for example, if there's a black terminal window, the black from the terminal window streaks across the screen. I think it must be something with the graphics card, although it worked fine with my older CRT displays, so maybe it's just a conflict between my screen and the graphics card (not sure what conflict, though). With my G4 I've tried it with Linux and MacOS X, and with my G3 I tried it with OS 9 and an older version of Linux. It worked fine in both cases on my G3, but in neither case on my G4 could I avoid the streakiness. Please let me know if you need more information. I appreciate your help.

    Hi-
    Streakiness could be due to a poor cable or connector.
    Having said that, it could be the analog side of the card is bad, or, simply that the Geforce2 won't do well with *widescreen LDC* panels through VGA.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25232
    The Geforce2 MX will only do 1920x1200@60Hz from the ADC (digital) port.
    Get an ADC to DVI adapter, and the problem is solved.

  • Error 11 when trying to update iPad1 to iOS5

    I have tried to update my iPad1 to iOS5 for the past four days but keep on getting the message that my iPad cannot be restored and gives an error 11 code.  I did not have have any issues to updating my 3GS iPhone to iOS5 prior to attempting the update to my iPad.  Another frustrating thing in this process is that my hard drive is always filling up, and it creates issues when the upgrading process is stopped because there is no room on the hard drive.  What frustrates me is that I am not doing anything at all in terms of saving things to my hard drive.  All my work, pictures, music and video files (my iTunes library) are all stored and accessed to an external hard drive.  I start with approximately 4gb of space remaining only to see that there is less than 20mb left, and I have done nothing other than trying to update to iOS 5.
    I have updated to the new iTunes and all my software is up-to-date on my Powerbook G4.
    Anyone else encounter the error 11 code while trying to update to iOS5; and, if so, how did they fix it?
    Thanks!

    Hi Joe. I discovered that in Windows the device backups for iTunes are not stored in the same folder as your iTunes library. They are stored in a user profile folder. When you perform the upgrade the software attempts to make a backup of your device into this folder and will fill up the drive with the temporary backup files. This complete backup contains all the media, applications, and data from the iPad.
    If you are running out of space during the upgrade then I would suggest having at least as much free disk on your primary drive as is available in the iPad (16GB, 32GB, 64GB). Then try the upgrade again.
    You could also try to remove the space-hogs from your ipad. Personally I had a bunch of recorded videos that iTunes tried to backup and restore after the upgrade was complete. Without the media my upgrade was successful.
    Hope this helps!

  • Cannot output 5.1 audio on HDMI after installing Windows 7

    Hi All,
    I have Pavilion dv7 1270us, which came with Windows Vista x64. I've managed to watch DVD Movies and Blu ray discs through the HDMI-output, having multichannel audio as well (5.1)
    I thought that it was time for a Windows upgrade. This week I've purchased a copy of Windows 7 Professional, formatted my harddrive and installed my new Windows. After that I browsed HP's driver page to download my missing drivers.
    Everything looks good now, except the fact that I cannot output multichannel audio to my amplifier now.
    Firstly, I thought that this could be a codec issue, but it isn't. This is what I've found in my Sound settings - Windows says that my HDMI supports only 2 channels:
    Am I missing something? A driver maybe or a setting? I looked at all possible settings and I am almost sure that the problem isn't there.
    Please help!
    P.S. I forgot one more thing. When my laptop was running on Vista, it was "smarth enough" to automatically choose the HDMI sound output for default sound device when I connect my HDMI cable, and the opposite - select "speakers" on disconnect. Now it does not.

    As stolen from someone on another forum, "Basic windows sound will always be 2 channel with HDMI. It is only when a DD/DTS/LPCM signal is bypassed to the receiver that you get 5.1 or greater."  Basically, set your HDMI as your Default Device, restart the computer, and test to see what happens.
    Assuming this does not solve your problem, looking up your driver page shows that your current set of drivers are out of date.  You can go here to download the newest set available from HP:
