Using an iPad Mini with an HDMI connected projector

I use an iPad Mini with a projector during the seminars I present and have run into a stumbling block with regard to audio output. I am using the Apple Lightning to HDMI adapter with my LCD projector (flawlessly) and the audio from my iPad goes to the projector through the HDMI cable as well. My problem is I would like to use external speakers instead of the one built into the projector. I have tried the headphone jack of the iPad, no luck. I have tried bluetooth connected speakers for the iPad, again it won't work. Has anyone discovered a way to separate the video and audio from an HDMI output to be able to use external speakers? My guess is that the HDMI "assumes" you are using a television (with built in speakers) and not a projector (which has no provision for audio out).

Is this the adapter you are using?

If it is, then you have next to the HDMI socket also a Lightning socket to which you could connect any audio system with a Lightning connector.
You may have a larger choice of audio systems for the old 30-pin connector, but then there is this solution:

    Use an AirPlay compatible device, such as an AppleTV or an AirPlay compatible AVR.

  • Will an iPad mini with retina display connect to a digital projector?

    Will an IPad mini with retina display connect to a digital projector for presentations?

    Yes, certainly. Depending on the projector's inputs, you'll need one of these adapters:

    How to I use my Ipad mini with  keynote to project my presentations, do I need any other app for that?I have a lighting to VGA cable already

    If you are using Keynote, then no, you would be fine with just the adapter and a cable hooked up to the projector.

  • Can i use my ipad mini with tmobile?

    i have a question will my att ipad mini wifi+cellular work with a tmobile nano sim or will i have to call up att to get it unlock in order to use it on tmobile network does anyone know if i need it even unlock?

    That will depend on how you buy the iPad.
    If you buy it from an Apple Store directly at full price it will be unlocked, and can take a sim card from any compatible GSM carrier.
    If you buy it directly from T-Mobile under a subsidy(at a discount price tied to a service contract)  Then it may be locked to T-Mobile for at least 40 days of service with them.

  • I'm thinking about using an iPad mini with data plan as a cell phone replacement, using Skype for phone service.

    Seems like a less expensive alternative, with fewer devices.  Thoughts?

    If you want to stay with your current plan, you would have to add 3 tiered data plans for the new smartphones. These would be $30/month(2 GB of data for each phone) for each of the data plans, increasing your bill by $90/month to $226/month for your total bill.
    If you were to switch to the Share Everything plan, you would have an access fee of $40 for each of the lines for a total of $120. This would give you unlimited talk and text. On top of the $120, you would have to add a bucket of shared data which ALL of the phones would be able to access. For $80/month, you could get a bucket of 6 GB of data to be shared between all of the phones. So far that would bring your bill to $200/month. With taxes, it should end up being about the same cost as your old plan with the benefit of having unlimited minutes. If you find yourself using less data, you can cut your data cost by lowering the amount of shared data. For example, $70/ month for 4 GB of shared data. If you find yourself using more data, you can add more data, for example $90/month for 8 GB of shared data or $100/month for 10 GB of shared data instead of $80/month for 6 GB of shared data.
    If you have any employee discounts available, these would ONLY come off the data portion of the Share Everything plan. Discounts on your current plan would not change if you currently have any.

  • HT2729 Purchased HD movie on ITune and tried to watch it on my TV using my IPAd Mini as the source and got flashing white images and then finally a motive that it could be watched using the TV aas a monitor.  Why? How do I avoid this problem?

    Recently while on vacation I tried to use my IPad Mini to watch a movie down loaded from ITunes and could not.  Initially I get flashing white lights across the TV monitor I was using so a group of us could watch the movie, Wreck It Ralph.  A few minutes later I was informed that the TV was not an acceptable viewing device.  Why?  How do I avoid this going forward?

    I connected an HDMI cable to a connector that I bought at an Apple store.  The connector connects the HDMI cable to the IPad Mini and the HDMI connects to the TV

  • HT3606 I have 10.5.8 software and aparently i need 10.7 or late to use my ipad mini what software can i download to bring it up to date and where from?

    i am having problems with the software updates on my pc, i have 10.5.8 currently and need 10.7 or later to be able to download newest itunes then i can finally use my ipad mini with the pc, how do i know which update will work i have tried numerous different updates to no prevail they all keep coming up with messages saying i need to download 10.6.8 or later.
    please help dont mind paying just need to know which one will work with my pc.
    many thanks

    First question is will your Mac run 10.7
    Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of RAM
    Mac OS X 10.6.8 or later with the Mac App Store installed
    At least 4GB of additional disk space to accommodate the download, but more is obviously
    If it will you must upgrade to 10.6 by purchasing the Snow Leopard install DVD from Apple.

  • I'm trying to use my iPad mini for the first time with a previous apple ID and password but it will not connect to iTunes but I can download apps from my iPhone using the same appleID and password and it works on my iphone...PLEASE HELP NOW

    I'm trying to use my iPad mini for the first time with a previous apple ID and password but it says "iTunes is not working try again"...it allowed me to download an app on my iPhone using the same apple ID & password but all my apps are in "Waiting Status" on my iPad mini because it says "iTunes is not working"...PLEASE HELP ME NOW!!!

    Previous user installed iOS 7 beta on that iPhone.
    Take it back and get your money returned. You
    are running into a new security feature. Whoever owns
    the ID that it is asking for is the only person who can
    remove the security. That iPhone is worthless to you.

  • Why do I need to connect my Ipad mini with my Mac Book Pro via iCloud?

    Why do I need to connect my Ipad mini with my Mac Book Pro via iCloud? I don't have iCloud on my MacBook Pro and only intend to use the mini to check e-mail and use Garage Band and Photo Booth for song writing when traveling . . .

    Thanks Community! I solved the problem. In fact it was not a problem but lack of understanding. These guys at Apple are way ahead in thir thinking. I will try to explain as short as I can.
    In Lion, ihe Prefferences/Display show only two choices: 6-7 steps of resolution and some color tab. No two screens, no two display to overlap, nothing for us to do. "That was the problem"! Everything is automatic.
    When I connected the HDMI cable to the Miniport into a T-bolt slot, the TV screen showed the "spiral galaxy" how Zyriab is calling it. In fact he gave me the best clue. That shows the connection is good. But where is the Mac Book image?
    You have to drag it to the right out of the Mac Book display area, and "voila!" it will continue on the TV screen. The same with the mouse pointer, push it out ofthe Mac Book display area and you see it on the TV sreen. Good image, you can keep the max resolution, etc. The sound is still on the Book's speakers. I have to figure that out.
    Thank everybody, especialy Zyriab, ne was the closest.
    High regards to everybody

  • My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

    My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • IPad mini with 30 pin HDMI adapter

    Hi,
    I have iPad mini and "lightning to 30 pin converter". I want to buy 30 pin HDMI Adapter (for iPad 2). I want to know that if I connect that 30 pin HDMI adapter to my iPad mini with the help of "lightning to 30 pin converter", will it work on my device?
    Thanks in advance...

    Cleaning the docking port didn't help. My other accessories still work.

  • Can I use hotspot tethering in iPad mini with wifi??

    Can I use hotspot tethering in iPad mini with wifi??

    You can use an iPhone (if your carrier supports it) as a personal hotspot for your iPad and use the phone's cellular connection to go online with your iPad - your iPad will see the phone as a wifi network.
    If you are asking if you can share an internet connection from a wifi-only iPad then you can't, only cellular models potentially allow you to share its connection with other devices/computers.
