Need help mirroring iPad Air in classroom

Not sure in the right community, so excuse me for posting in two areas...
I recently got an iPad Air and the lightning VGA adapter to connect my iPad to the projection system in my classroom. It will project the iPad screen on my computer monitor, but will not project onto the large screen through my projector. I was able to do this with my iPad 2 and the 30 pin VGA adapter, which would mirror onto both the computer screen and the big screen using my VGA splitter box. I use my iPad all the time to show students info from apps. Any ideas?
Thanks! Jen Nicholson, K-5 science lab teacher

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you... that worked!!! I HAD rebooted the computer, but not the iPad. Once I did that, and rettached ipad to iMac,  'Devices' showed in the right side panel. I think I ticked off the appropriate items and it seemed to back up the iPad onto the iMac. Not sure how long that would take, or if it is finished, so I'm just leaving it plugged in overnight. Tomorrow I will attempt to 'restore' to the new iPad air.
Once again, many thanks for your prompt response.

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

    If the iPad was running iOS 7, the thief/finder will not ever be able to use it.

    if you have an OLDER Air, you can get the same thing in USB vs. thunderbolt
    grab one at best buy or your local apple store.

  • Help.  ipad air flashes between white apple logo and unlock screen?

    help.  ipad air flashes between white apple logo and unlock screen?  how do i fix this ?

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • Help with iPad Air Replacement? When will it arrive?

    Hey guys, this is my first time here so hopefully im doing everything correctly.
    Basically, I recently ordered a NEW iPad Air a few days ago (two days ago). It still has active warranty. However, as soon as i opened it and turned on the screen, i Noticed that the left side had a yellow tint which really bothered me.
    So I ordered an iPad replacement, and apple just sent me an email saying that they'll ship a box in which i can put my iPad in and send it to them.
    Here are my questions:
    1). Lets say I get my replacement, and it has a similar issue or some other issue. Will I be able to send in the replacement for another replacement?
    2). Will the replacement have an active warranty?
    3). Will the replacement iPad be new or refurbished?
    4). When will I get my replacement iPad (average). One week, two weeks, couple of days...etc.?
    5). Will I have to ship my original iPad via USPS, FED EX, UPS...etc? I have a USPS post office right next to my house so its very convenient for me if its USPS. Not so if its FED EX or UPS...I'm currently living in Maryland, USA
    Thank you guys! Sorry for the long questions, but I'm really stumped right now. I can't believe a $600 product has such as screen defect Thanks to everyone who answers this in advance!
    Also, where do I post questions like these to? I couldn't find any community related to apple support, and this was the closest category...sorry for any confusion.

    If you are getting a network timeout then try temporarily turning off your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed.

  • Need help for MacBook Air, is 64Gb enough?

    So i was thinking, is there enough space in then64Gb macbook air (2011 11'')? Not going to use it for big games just surfing the web (Facebook, YouTube, google), maybe some applications (Angry Birds and stuff) but not much.. Anyone please help, so basically gonna use it to surf the web not a "proffesional use". Thanks

    Yeah, the only reason I would say to get the 128GB MBA is because of the ram. The base model RAM ($999) isn't enough speed considering that you have a solid state drive in your presence.
    In regard to the harddrive alone, I like to keep my harddrive organized, so I find smaller harddrives actually beneficial, since if I'm given the space, I would use it up and let things sit on there I don't use. With 128GB, I keep a LaCie Porsche mini harddrive with me, where I dump all my movie and music files, and what not. I either play those movies straight off there, or I put a couple movies I seriously will watch in the near future. I never think that I will be caught in a disaster situation where I would need 6+ hours of movies in one sitting, so I always keep the inventory I keep on my MBA slim. And if I ever need a movie, I really don't mind attaching the mini ext. harddrive for a few minutes to download that particular movie.

  • So do you need wifi with iPad Air to get internet? Or can I take it on the road and use the internet

    Yes no?

    If you don't have a cellular iPad, then yes, you must have a Wifi connection to access the internet.
    That said, if you have an iPhone you can create a Wifi hotspot from your iPhone to your iPad.  Data charges do apply, so you'd need to add the service from your cell company.
    Or, you can buy a Mifi from a cell carrier as well, which would give you wifi access to your iPad.
