Lightning 30 pin adapter issue

I just received my iphone 5 lightning 30-pin adapter. With my particular phone case, the pin connector is not long enough to insert into the phone and charge. Has anyone experienced this issue as well? The only way to use it is to remove the phone case.

Your case designer should have done their homework .
They would have full details of the iPhone and its accessories
assuming they are a developer status

No sound from Apogee Jam with iPad mini and Lightning-30 pin adapter

Hello everybody.
I'm trying to use my Apogee Jam with iPad mini but I am unable to hear any sound from it. Jam seems to work, since the led become green and react to the guitar signal. I tried two different guitars and different cables but nothing changes. Jam also works perfectly on MacBook Pro and garage Band, so I first assumed the issue was in the iPad or in the Lightning-30 pin adapter (genuine).
Oddly on AmpliTube I can tune the guitar, so some signal arrives to the iPad, but I can't do the same on JamUp, where the tuner seems not to reiceve any signal. Are there some settings I should check on the apps?
Thanks for any suggestions!

Make sure you have the monitor input turned on in GarageBand. http://youtu.be/Eb8bN3tExio

Can I use apogee jam on ipad 4 with lightning 30 pin adapter?

Can I use apogee jam on ipad 4 with lightning 30 pin adapter?

OKAY Mikivai73, here's what I found: no less than TWO cheap alternative-brand imitation connectors that go 30-pin to lightning, failed to even make apogee jam device light up blue.
Spent hours mucking with it. Finally tried proper genuine apple usb to lightning connector with the OTHER cable that comes in the apogee JAM box, and it worked straight off!
So, I am buying a genuine pukka APPLE 30-pin to lightning adaptor in the full expectation it will work, and have left questions for the Ebay guys who sold the two cheap (less than 5 pounds sterling) alternate adaptors.
For info, I got the Ipad 4,and the cheap adapters, one looks like the real apple one, right down to packaging, the other is a stumpy little thing, no cable just a plastic connector, with 30 pin one side, lightning other side.
That's it, I am ordering from the apple store now, can't be more certain than that.
best regards from sleekitwan.

Lightning to 30-pin Adapter issues - flimsy and won't work with cases

Anyone else having issues with the Lightning to 30-pin Adapter/Connectors? When applied to my Sony docking stations (numerous btw), the iPhone 5 barely rests securely on the connector AND the Lightning pin itself won't even fit or connect on the phone when the cases is on - this is iPhone 101 folks. I shall be returning all of my conenctors that I have purchased as they do me no good. Would really appreciate a proper fit and well stock of these items ASAP as its causing tremendouse aggrevation with the conenctor switchover.

I have the same problem. I bought the same type of Speck Candy Shell case that I had for my 3GS iPhone. The $34.00 Lighting to 30-pin adapter will not fit through the case and into the IPhone 5. I just talked to Apple support and after being on hold 5 mins while the tech talked to her supervisor, the Apple solution is "take your case off the phone when you want to use the adapter". I hope thousands of us complain and Apple fixes this. If Apple had not been so secretive and talked to accessory manufacturers they would of know that the Adapter they designed was faulty. Now I how to drive to an Apple store to return the Adapter to get my money back. Only the USB cable will fit through the case into the iPhone 5.
Bad Adapter design my Apple. Thats what happens when you design a product for millions of people - in a secretive bubble.

IPhone5 - lightning 30 pin adapter problem

The adapter plug is too short to work when the iPhone is in a THIN case. Aparently the Lightning cable's plug is longer than lightning plug in the adapter for 30pin cable. Returing the adapter; it's not as adaptable as it needs to be!

Complain to your case's manufacturer. They need to make their cases to fit Apple's specifications for the phone and accessories, NOT the other way round.

Lightning 30 pin adapter taking where is it?

Why is it taking so long for the adaptor I ordered on September 14th to come?!?

I would probably have to say that it's because #1, so many have been ordered. #2, it's a brand new product and a lot of them are still stored in a warehouse until they can be shipped. Hope this helps!

Lightning to 30-pin adapter doesn't work w/ iPod Touch 5G

Hi. The lightning to 30-pin adapter I purchased (from Apple) with my iPhone 5 does not work with my daughter's new iPod Touch 5G. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Thanks.

Does she have a case? Please give me more details

IPhone 5 Lightning to 30-pin adapter

Just received my long awaited lightning to 30-pin adapter (three of them) for my iPhone 5 only to discover that to charge my phone in the car or listen to music in my office on my Altec Lansing, I have to take the case off. This rather defeats the purpose of a having a case, invites accidental damage to the phone, and, in general, is pain in butt to take the case off everytime. Clearly, Apple didn't think this one through. The adapter needs to be redesigned so that the pin part is longer. It's simply too short, and again, won't fit with cases. This doesn't affect just me; if affects millions of consumers who have purchased the iPhone 5. An alternative solution is to cut the case but I paid handsomely for a handmade, wooden case and I'm not keen on taking an exacto knife to cut the hole bigger.
Has anyone else discovered this little snafu????

@gdgmacguy: Yes, Apple makes phones. And Apple makes adapters for those phones. And Apple made an adapter that won't plug into those phones when they are in a case. The cases work fine with the iPhone 5. The issue involves the adapter. The pin on the adapter is not long enough to plug into the iPhone 5 with the case on. Apple hires geniuses but sometimes genius gets in the way of practical. Somebody at Apple should have put a case on an iPhone 5 and tried to plug in the adapter. Duh.
Bottom line: Apple screwed up. The adapter should have been released along with the phone to consumers at no extra cost. The adapter specs should have been released when iPhone specs were released so case makers could have made cases that accomodate the adapter. Apple should have made the pin longer to accomodate cases.
Wonder what Apple is going to do to address this issue.

Case for iphone 6 plus with lightning to 30 pin adapter?

I recently upgraded to a iPhone 6 plus from an iPhone 5. I have been using the square lightning to 30 pin adapter to adapt the 30 pin plugs on both my bedside clock radio/dock for overnight charging and in the glovebox connector in my 2013 VW Jetta. I had no issues connecting the plug with an Otterbox Defender on my iPhone 5. However, there are very few cases on the market right now for the iPhone 6 plus, and the Otterbox was not readily available when I purchased the phone 2 weeks ago, and I'm also not so sure I want to fork over the $60 since Apple isn't recommending the Otterboxes anyways. I'm not sure I buy into the Lifeproof concept, although I know some people love them. The Tech21 cases also have to be ordered, and don't have integrated screen protection like the Otterbox Defender. Admittedly, as careful as I try to be with my phone, I am a dropper and need a protective case. I ordered a cheaper Caseology case, but it does not allow the lightning to 30 pin adapter plug to attach, so I cannot charge my phone on my bedside dock or in my car with the adapter. I looked at the Spigen cases online as well as several others, but none of them seem, from visual inspection of the online photos, to have the large opening that the Otterbox for my iPhone 5 did that allowed the adapter to be connected.
Yes, I could buy extra lightning cables and reinvent my whole charging system, but I have found the cables to be not nearly as durable as the adapters (I've gone through many cables in the last two plus years, but still have the same two adapters.) I would rather find a case that accommodates the adapter. Any suggestions for cases that will allow the adapter to be attached with the case still on?

Have a look at cableJive they make the dockStubz which might do what you are looking for

Lightning to 30-pin Adapter Availability

Not only is it disgusting that we now have to purchase the Lightning to 30-pin Adapter to get the phone to work with all of our other systems, Bose sound system, car connection etc But Apple dont release anywhere near enough of them to cope with the demand. Also they have put some sort of chip in it to restrict any other manufacturer from making an equivalent.
Come on Apple your products are good but not that good and potentially you will not be the richest company in the world for much longer.

I Agree 100%. I have been an apple user for many years. Everythig at work / home is apple sofware and hardware. I develop for iOS and have purchased every iPhone up-to-date. I have never had an issue with apple until now, and have always stood loyal to them even when people around me doubted... but now? Not so much. I am starting to lose faith in this company with the mistakes they are making. Remember the blackberry? This is how it all started. ******* people off one bit at a time. Why did we not recieve the Lightning adapter with our iPhone 5's? Because Apple was too eger to get the phone out the door for their 4th quarter. Why do we have to pay for it? Because Apple decided to put way to much thought into something so darn simple. Why is there no availablity? Because Apple simply does not care if I can use my iPhone in my car or with my home stereo system... They already made their 900 bucks off me. Why are they the richest company in the world? Because Steve Jobs was running their company... Do you think he would have allowed this to happen? I doubt it. He knew how to take care of his customers. I will continue to use Apple products until something better comes along, and so will everyone else, but when that "something better" comes along, Apple will no longer be the wealthiest company in the world and will be thinking "What happened?" just like RIM is.

Lightning to 30-pin adapter not working w/iHome/iPhone 6.

Lightning to 30-pin adapter is not working correctly with iHome/iPhone 6. When I plug phone in the music and time update will work but it won't charge the phone, unless I turn my phone around but then music won't work. I've only had my iHome for a year and used it with no problem with my 4S. Now that I have the iPhone 6 I decided to get the adapter so I wouldn't have to spend money on a new iHome. I thought I just had a bad adapter, at least that's what they told me in the Apple Store. So I exhanged it at Best Buy, where I bought it, and got another one. Very disappointed that I have the same problem. Anyone else have this problem? Did I just wain't $30.

No-one from Apple here
It is either a corrupt update to iOS
or something in Honda that no longer likes iOS 8.3
To eliminate an issue with iOS 8.3 basic troubleshooting
Restart
Reset
Restore ,as new ,check iPhone functions if working correctly then restore your back up to get back to normal
If still an issue you then need to eliminate the potential Honda side,2007 is very old technology compared to 8.3

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)

Is the adapter the genuine Apple product or a copy

What adapter do I need for my ipod Nano 7th Generation to connect to a Sony home docking station (30 pin). I purchased the one recommended (Lightning to 30 pin adapter), but it says 'this accessory is not supported by this device)?

Could someone please tell me the correct lead I need for an Applie Ipod 7th Generation 16GB for a Sony docking station. I bought a Lightning to 30 pin adaptor that fits the dock but not the ipod (this was recommended to me by someone from the Apple shop believe it or not). I need one that will fit the ipod and then slot into the 30 pin dock. The dock pulls out and my old ipod (5th Generation) just slotted straight in, but this slot obviously doesn't fit. It would really help if someone can recommend what I need to use or even if there is one that just slots in or whether I need some sort of cable and can't use the docking station. I've had a lock at the Apple store but just keep getting confused about what does what and can't seem to see anything unless I need an additional cable to slot into the 30 pin adapter I already have?
HELP - CONFUSED.COM!

If it is a lightning to 30 pin adaptor, and you have a 7th Generation Nano it has to fit the Nano.
This is lightning to 30 pin adapter: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Apple%26%23174%3B---Lightning-to-30-Pin-Adapter/6651 936.p?id=1218803450821&skuId=6651936#tab=overview
Is this what you bought?
You need to contact Sony and see if they model you have is compatible with the docking adapter. It may not be.

Playing audio to dock thru lightning to 30-pin adapter?

Hi folks. I just bought a new iPad mini w/ retina display. I own two iPod docks. I'd like to be able to play music and podcasts--all audio, really--from the iPad through the docks. The docks have 30-pin connectors. I bought the lightnig to 30-pin adapter, plugged the lightning end into the iPad and the 30-pin end into the dock. Then I played a podcast with the iPad plugged into each dock. Both times, sound came from the iPad, but nothing from the docks. On one of them, the iPad showed a message that said "device not supported." On the other dock, the iPad showed no message. Can you help me trouble-shoot this?
Many thanks in advance.

Didn't realize the A1359 was a keyboard dock for the iPad. The cable should work.
