Using iPad to drive in car screens

Hi, does anyone have any experience of using the iPad to drive remote screens in the back of a car? I have the standard apple output cable (red,white,yellow) which should fit the remote screens but wonder whether anyone has any experience of this?
Thanks

ups port?  You mean USB?
USB ports do not provide enough power to charge iPads.  iPhones and other smaller devices need less power so can charge. 
If your car has a cigarette lighter port you can get an adapter for it to charge the iPad. Those put out more power than the USB ports.

    Try using this article to help with your iPad not showing up in iTunes---
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538     -This deals with the device not being recognized in iTunes for Windows
    The following steps work well with iPod but i would try them for help with your iPad issue:
    Try connecting your iPad to another USB port directly on the computer. Verify that you're connecting it to a high-powered USB 2.0 port on your computer to be sure iPad is getting power. If you're connecting to a Windows laptop computer through USB, connect the laptop to a power outlet before connecting your iPad. Also, see iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB to be sure that your USB ports are supplying enough power.
    Avoid connecting to an external USB hub. If a hub must be used, make sure the hub is USB 2.0, and that it has its own power supply. Also, make sure the hub is connected to a high-power USB 2.0 port on your computer.
    If the issue persists, try disconnecting other USB devices from the computer such as printers, cameras, scanners, external hard drives, and USB hubs to determine if there is a conflict in the USB chain.

  • Hi, I bought an iPad and was so impressed by Safari that I replaced Chrome with it on my Windows XP Toshiba laptop and now when I use Safari the icons on the screen continue to flicker until I come out of Safari. Is there a cure other than using a Mac

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

  • Using iPad mail program I have a draft of an email. I attempted to "cancel" and "delete draft" but it is still on my screen even after shutting down and restarting. How do I exit so that I can use other mail functions?

    Using iPad mail program I have a draft of an email. I have attempted to "cancel" this and "delete draft" but the email stays on my screen. How can I exit this so that I can use other email functions?

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I am using iPad 3 and I try to use 30-pin Digital AV adaptor for mirroring on my Samsung HD TV.  Unfortunately it is not a full screen projection.  Anyone can help?

    I am using iPad 3 and I try to use 30-pin Digital AV adaptor for mirroring on my Samsung HD TV.  Unfortunately it is not a full screen projection.  Anyone can help?

    The iPad Screen is almost square, HD TVs are rectangular so will never be full screen.  When watching movies, the movies native aspect ratio will be used rather than the iPads screen aspect ratio so will look full screen if the movie is full screen, but most likely will be seen in wide screen letter box format. with black bars across the top and bottom as that what most movies from iTunes are in, format wise

  • I would like to use an external drive for the iPad I just purchased for my husband?  How can I accomplish this is there an accessory that would allow me to use a USB

    I would like to use an external drive for storage on the ipad I just purchased.   How can I do this?

    You can't attach drives to any iOS device.
    Having said that, there are some drives with built-in wifi routers that a device can connect to.  These would behave like a cloud device in which some of your apps might be able to connect.
    Try googling to find some brands.

  • Why can't a mac ipad use a flash drive or cd burner

    Please.   let me know why ipad doesn't have ability yo use a flash drive or CD burner.

    The iPad doesn't have a file manager - like Finder or 'my computer' that allows the use of such devices.
    It likely will never support any sort of optical drive - heck within the next few years I'm wiling to bet cd readers/burners go the way of the floppy drive (likely as soon as the record and video industry goes the way of distribution via USB key). But there are some apps and wireless flash drives that work with iPads - they have an app that takes the place of a file manager.
    Look for sandisk wireelss flash drive, to just name one. I have no experience with them but there are a couple of users here that have them and recommend it a lot.

  • There is a feature on the Ad on using iPad with apple tv as a dual screen such as the iPad as agame controller, how is this being set up or done?

    This is something the app developer enables within airplay mirroring.
    There is nothing you can do to enable that.

  • My iPad dosen't open, my screen is black even if I use the open/close buttun??what can I do

    My iPad won't open, my screen is black even if I use the open/close reset botton???

    Assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset (not sure whether this is what you meant by a reset) ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Hi I am using iPad 2, when I tap app icon on the screen it shakes and does not open the app please advice what need to be done

    - First try clciking the Home button one and try again.
    - Next reset the iPod. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPad: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Then restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

  • I need help, I am unable to download my latest purchase on itunes to my car using a flash drive, any suggestions?

    I am unable to import my latest purchase from iTunes onto my car, I am using a flash drive but when I plug it into my car, it doesn't even show that the cd is on there but it does show it being on there when I plug the flash drive into my pc, any suggestions?

    That message "Adobe Reader could not open 'ZinioReader4(1).air' because it is either not a supported file type " may seem to suggest a relationship between ZinioReader and Adobe Reader. But actually it means the exact opposite. Adobe Reader cannot open this. There is nothing wrong with Adobe Reader; it cannot open .air files, never has, never will.
    So the problem is not Adobe Reader, it is that you are trying to use the wrong thing (Adobe Reader) to open a .air file. My guess is that you were asked what opens .air files and you once chose Adobe Reader.
    No idea what does open .air files or how; but this is to assure you that you are in the wrong place. Perhaps the Adobe AIR forum is the right place.

  • How do I change the settings in quick time player to screen record video using less hard drive space?

    how do I change the settings in quick time player to use less hard drive space when performing a screen record? When I screen record a video lets say from vimeo, QTP seems to use a lot of hard drive space.  Please help.  Are there settings some where to adjust to slim down the video size? Thanks for your input.

    I just did a short SR test, first I exported to 480p, then I saved the file. Now I have 2 files one 11.9mb (export) and the other 42.8mb (save). I then took the save file and performed an export on it to 480p.  Guess what, it saved at 11.9mb.  So it seemed to save me 3/4 of the space.  Lets see what happens with a 17 minute SR.  Thanks!
    Any suggestions on getting the sound louder with the SR?
    For anyone else ever seeing this post, for me the best was using an external speaker whether wired or bluetooth, facing the left side of the computer where the internal mic hole is.   Good Luck!

  • My question is that if I am using Mac and another friend of mine is using Ipad mini and her skpe isnt working and we want to share screens how can we do it through Ichat? Since on facetime screens cant be shared!

    My question is that if I am using Mac and another friend of mine is using Ipad mini and her skpe isnt working and we want to share screens how can we do it through Ichat? Since on facetime screens cant be shared!

    Hi,
    You can't.
    Messages - the replacement for iChat in Mountain Lion and beyond will  do Screen Sharing  but only to the accounts it did in iChat 5 and 6  (actually it includes iChat 4 as well)
    That is to say in earlier version of iChat you could login to AIM and Jabber servers as well as enabling the Bonjour option to chat on your LAN.
    All these will do Video and Audio only chats which in turn means they will Screen Share.
    At iChat 6 an Yahoo option was added but it can only Text chat (it can't even send Files or Pics)
    This means only the Internet able accounts that login in to AIM or to a Jabber server  can Video and therefore Screen Share.
    The iMessages account will Invoke FaceTime if you use the Video icon during text chat.  (I.e. it is not Video inside the app like the AIM or Jabber accounts can do)
    NOTE.
    AIM includes Apple Issued Apple ID as Valid AIM Screen Names.
    Google Mail ID s can be used and Google Talk IDs with Messages as they run a Jabber server.
    Facebook allow you to create a Chat ID (Facebook Chat ID) which is also a Jabber server.

  • TS3683 Not enough space on my Mac HD to back up my iPad.   My iTunes library is on an external drive.  Can I use this same drive to Back yup my iPad?

    I don't have enough space on my Mac HD to back up my iPad.   Actually, my iTunes library is on an external drive.  Can I use this same drive to Back up my iPad?

    1. First make sure iPhoto is not running. If it is, quit it. Use the Finder to copy your iPhoto Library file to your external drive. Unless you've changed it, its located inside your Pictures folder and is named "iPhoto Library".
    2. After the copy is complete, start iPhoto while simultaneously holding down the option key. iPhoto will bring up a dialog box. The file in the list is your existing Library on your internal disk. Click the "Other Library" button and navigate to your external drive. Select your freshly copied iPhoto Library file and click "Open". iPhoto will from now on open and work with this library on the external drive.
    3. After you've confirmed iPhoto is working properly with the newly copied library you may wish to delete the original library in your Pictures folder to recover the disk space.
    Don't forget to keep a backup copy of your library on a separate disk. It's not a matter of "if" your external drive will fail but "when". You need to make regular backups or you'll be sorry someday.
