Output iPad video to 27" iMac using iPad VGA adaptor?

Hi, I was wondering is it possible to Output iPad video to 27" iMac as an external monitor using iPad VGA adaptor?
Thx.

No.  The VGA adaptor is an analog connection and the only inputs are digital Mini Display / Thunderbolt ports depending on your model.  It maybe possible with a conversion box of some sort or maybe trying an HDMI to mini display port cable ($44.95) and an iPad 2.  The 27' should be able to be used as a second display but the 21 is not.  If you have the iPad 2, pick up the cable and the HDMI adapter and try it out.  If not, return the cables within two weeks.

    You'd need something to redirect the VGA signal to a DisplayPort connector on the iMac. Your other option is VGA is easily adaptable to S-Video, though its resolution is not as great as VGA and using http://www.elgato.com/ 's hardware for that. A third one is using a Remote Desktop app for the iPad. Several exist.

  • I just hooked up a airport express as my new router and now I cant play videos on my imac or ipad. PLEASE HELP.

    I just hooked a new airport express and now I cant play videos on my imac or ipad. I do have a sprint airave hooked up to the system. I dont know if i have all the cables hooked up right but everything works except playing videos on either device. PLEASE HELP. Thank you

    Yea rudegar its weird. I dont have sound either. I have read to put airave behind router but I cant find anywhere how to hook all the wires up. I have 2 ports in the back of the airport express(1 wan and 1 ethernet), 1 port on my modem and 3 ports on the airave(wan and 2 lan). I dont know which cable goes where, wan ,lan, ethernet, back of computer etc. Im an idiot when it comes to all this stuff but Im sure its simple fix but obviously not for me. I read people put modem to router to airave but dont say which port to put them in.

  • Will ios 5 enable video mirroring of photos through the vga adaptor on ipad 1

    Will ios 5 enable video mirroring of photos through the vga adaptor on ipad 1?

    "the graphics hardware in the iPad 1 doesn't provide proper support for mirroring the screen." 
    Actually it does.  I JB'd my iPad for the sole purpose of VGA mirroring and it works GREAT, but I'd rather not have to JB with ios 5.  It obviously works, Apple sells a VGA adapter.  What is the big problem with making this happen.
    Thanks,

  • IPad video clips to iMac?

    How can I import videos onto my iMac iMovie from my iPad (without emailing it)? I Have iMovie '09 and an iPad 2.

    I have now transferred another keynote file containing the unedited video to my iPad and this runs OK, so there must have been something wrong with my edited file. Next step is to re-edit the video; better luck next time.

  • HT1657 Using a VGA adaptor with iPad 1 for iTunes movie rentals?

    I have an iPad 1 with a VGA adaptor to display supported apps on external displays like YouTube and GoodReader. I tried to use this with a rented SD movie from iTunes and I got a warning along the lines of  "output device not supported for protected material." Is there a way to do play iTunes rentals on an external display from the iPad? This is simple on a MacBook.
    Thanks,

    Hi bluemoon59,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The article below may be able to help you with this issue.

    iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1657?viewlocale=en_US
    Can I play my rental on more than one device?
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

  • Disable video card driver and use generic VGA

    Is there a way to just use a generic VGA driver for the macbook pro? I'm having problems with my macbook pro regarding display issues and crashing. It works fine in safe mode, which disables the ati video driver. Is there a way to have the macbook pro disable the default video driver and just use a 2d accelerated generic driver?
    Thanks

  • RE: Video problems after disconnecting DVI to VGA adaptor...

    I was playing a game (C&C Generals) the other day on Vista with an external monitor connected via the DVI to VGA adaptor. During the game, I decided to move my MBP so I disconnected the adaptor. The screen started flickering and I had to reset the MBP. After resetting, I tried to re-launch the game, but an error popped up saying that I don't have DirectX 8.1 or greater (actually, I have DirectX 10) or don't have a supported video card (I have Nvidia 8600 GT). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Bootcamp drivers and resetting my PRAM, to no avail. Any ideas? I tested my MBP on other games (e.g. Company of Heroes) and it works fine -- the only time the video card gives me trouble is when I try to launch C&C Generals!
    Thanks for any help!

    I recently upgrade to a macbook pro after my macbook crashed, when I got it home I went to plug in my DVI to VGA cable to find out the port had been changed and i needed to purchase an other one for my new mac. Spent the 20 buck all over again got it home plugged it in and no image on my TV. It seems you need to be a computer scientist to get this to work. Why was this port changed to something that does not work when the previous on worked so perfectly just plug and play????????
    Yes blaming your MBP is your first step, but completely illogical. Have you checked the System Preferences>Display? Have you set it up correctly?
    Plug and Play, does not mean that an ancient monitor (anything on VGA is several generations ago) will automatically take over your MBP to create the perfect profile. You need to fix things.

  • I can't export ipad video to my imac

    When i connect ipad 2 to imac i can see all photos and only short video( less than 20 min). the other ones, maybe more than 30 minutes, i can't see them and export them.
    Why the ****? They took so much space and don't want to delete them!
    Please, someone help me...

    Have you thought about using Photo Stream? I don't use it - you need to enable iCloud if you want to use Photo Stream. This article has a link to it at the end.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    I suspect - as you probably do as well - that the issue might be due to the size of the files. Have you considered a third party app? Look at PhotoSync - I don't use it, but you can check it out and see if it will work for you.

  • When I call a iPhone or iPad user on my iMac using FaceTime, the person being call can hear the ring but cannot connect.  Does anyone have any trouble shooting advise???

    Need help in determing why a person receiving a FaceTime call from me cannot connect?  The person receiving a call from me says that they hear my call coming in but when they try to connect nothing happens.  If anyone has any trouble shooting advise or why the call receiver cannot connect let me know ASAP.  I also have a MacBook Pro with the same FaceTime problem.  Help! Help!

    Its too bad that your phone is out of warranty because this is most likely a manufacturer fault. You need to take it back to Apple. If it is not a manufacturing fault, then go to any shop that your network owns and talk to them about this problem.

  • Any ideas how to play iPad music via tv and use ipad at the same time?

    I am using ArkMC app to play music from my iPad on my sony bravia tv. But when I come out of the app to say use safari, the music stops streaming. I really want to play music and use my iPad together. Any ideas?.

    the app have to support background play or when one move on it will stop playing
    if you use an appletv you can use airplay but it will not just play the music it will play any sound your ipad would otherwise play so if you start the music and expect to be able to play a game on the ipad while the music play you will be disappointed
