VGA Mirror for iPad (1)

Question to the Apple-Team: are there any plans to make the mirroring of the VGA-out possible like it is on the iPad 2? Only marketing-reasons could speak against such a solution. A lot of users will be very happy wih this feature!

This is a user-to-user forum, Apple does not listen here.

Having problems with my VGA adaptor for iPad.

I bought the VGA adaptor for iPad from BB the other day, and when it arrived, I could not get it to work with my iPad (iPad 1 with latest OS). I tried adjusting settings on my monitor (I'm using it with my second computer monitor, a 24" AOC brand), but I could not get anything to display. I tried plugging it into my new iPhone 4S, and it worked flawlessly with every application. I then tried using it with my new iPod Touch, with latest OS installed, and it would not do anything either. So I have this adaptor for iPad, and it works with my iPhone 4S, but not my iPad or iPod Touch. Does anyone out there have any answers or suggestions?
Thank you for your time...

JCinINDY-
The iPad 1 only sends video to the adapter when a slideshow or a video is playing. You can not see the normal iPad 1 display on a VGA screen. It does not support "mirroring" the way an iPhone 4S will.
That said, it is possible you have a bad connector on the iPad 1. If you can take it to an Apple Store Genius, they should be able to verify whether or not it is working correctly.

HT4108 Vga adapter for ipad not supported

I've been using the vga adapter with a projector, but of late I've not been able to use it with my ipad2.

Hi nlrutt,
You do not mention whether your issue - a 30 pin to VGA adapter not working with your iPad - is with an Apple adapter or not. I will assume that it is and therefore it should function correctly.
I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iOS: About Apple Digital AV Adapters
Specifically -
Troubleshooting
If you encounter an issue using the Apple Digital AV Adapter or VGA Adapter:
Disconnect and reconnect the adapter from the iOS device and display.
Connect directly to the TV, projector, or external display using a known-good VGA or HDMI cable.
Remove any VGA or HDMI extension cables or converters.
Note that accessories that convert a VGA or HDMI signal to other video formats (DVI, Composite, Component) are not supported.
Ensure that you are using the latest version of iOS. Some Apple Digital AV Adapters require iOS 5.1 or later.
Note: When using an Apple Digital AV Adapter manufactured before early 2012 with iPad (3rd generation), you may see the "This accessory is not supported" alert. Dismissing the alert will allow you to use the adapter.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

After IOS 7, i am no longer able to play Netflix V.5.0.2 on TV with the VGA adapter for IPAD 2

Once IOS7 was realesed I upgraded my IPAD 2 software. Later i upgraded Netflix version for IOS 7 and suddenly i could no longer display Netflix on my tv using the cable VGA to IPAD adapter.
At first a alert appeared saying that i needed to disable air play, but did not know how to do it. When a bugged and Fixed version for Netflix came out, I upgraded it and now the only thing tha is displayed on the TV are subtitles but no image.
Can someone help me?

That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

Air Play Mirror for iPad

Hi,
I have a new Apple TV with up to date software.
Two iPhone 5's up to date and and iPad 4th Gen and 2 iPad Air2's also up to date, all on the same network.
The iPhones will screen mirror but the iPads won't, they will air play photos and videos but no mirroring (no option available to turn it on when selecting air play to the apple tv).
Am I missing something ?
Any help appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.
If you are still having problems, the following article(s) may help you.

VGA Adapter for iPad

Help. I built a photo presentation on my iPad using the Keynote app. yesterday I stopped into the Apple store and picked up a VGA Adapter so I could view the presentation via projector. I can't seem to get it to work. The projector works with my laptop, but not the iPad. Any ideas out there?

I would troubleshoot by trying out a monitor rather then the projector
then I would try using apps I know to support the adaptor like video and youtube and pictures and the likes
and see where that lead me

AirPlay Mirroring for iPad 2 without any wireless network setup

Hi
I maybe jumping the gun here. Can anyone tell me that can this new feature of iOS5 work without any form of network.
What I mean is if I got AppleTV 2 , and iPad2, can I jsut stream what is on my iPad to AppleTV that is connect to a TV, without a Wif-fi or ehternet netork.
I search on the internet look like all the situation is that they still want inernet access for AppleTV, but in my case if there is no internet access for my AppleTV is fine, as I only want to stream what is on my iPad to a TV.
Thanks and Regards,
Stephen

IF you have a Mac you can use that to create a network, turn on Wifi, under the Wifi tab click "create network"... give it a name... WEP encryption if you like... and voila you have a wifi network that your iPad and apple TV should be able to see and use without needing to connect to the internet.

VGA output for Ipad

Is there anyway to show spreadsheets from Numbers on the iPad? Presenting at meetings would be way easier if I could. Or if there was an easy way to link things into keynote, that would work too.

Only way I know is to take a screenshot (home+sleep) and import the image into Keynote.

How to mirror my iPad to my iPhone for presentations?

I have recently used airserver to mirror my iPad to my mac.
I use this setup for presentations, where I want to move freely
across a room with my iPad, while my mac is hooked up to a Videoprojetor.
I got thinking? Is there a way to mirror my iPad to my iPhone?
I would like to just hook up the phone to the VIdeo Projector
while streaming a mirror image from my iPad to my iPhone, without
using a computer, and without having to carry one around.
Regards

Problem is, my video projectors don't have HDMI and on YouTube they mentioned that HDMI to VGA adapters don't allow you to display all media from the iPad, for copyrights protection issues.

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 2 VGA - Mirroring?

HI,
The main page for Ipad 2 features says the Ipad 2 will mirror with the VGA cable, but on the specific Mirroring Page it only mentions doing so with the HDMI cable. Does it mirror everything through the VGA cable?

I got my iPad2 hooked up to a VGA monitor earlier tonight, using the standard VGA adapter that Apple started supplying when the first iPad launched. Mirroring worked just great - no frame loss, and all features supporting including full view of SpringBoard (the home screen) and rotation.
I made a short demo video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PhPLz_WF2c
So, the conclusion here is that mirroring is a feature of the A5 chip inside the iPad2, and you don't specifically need the HDMI cable to make it work.
Hope this helps all the teachers and business professionals out there!

How to use AirPlay mirroring with Cox TV Connect app for iPad?

I just bought an Apple TV 3 yesterday because I have been using the Cox TV Connect app for iPad a lot lately because I lost a lot of my favorite channels when I got rid of the higher teir of Cox Cable due of the price, and I can veiw these channels on my iPad now with the Cox TV Connect app. I thought if I bought an Apple TV I could use the AirPlay feature to stream the live TV shows from the iPad app to the TV through Apple TV and unfortuneately the option wasnt there, so I tried to mirror the iPad screen to the Apple TV but I dont have the option in the multitasking bar, anyone know why this is? I have updated the iPad and Apple TV to the software update that was just recently released. Even when im not using the Cox TV app on the iPad I still cant mirror my screen to the Apple TV, but I can do so with the iPhone 4S.

That document is describing what you say you are already seeing. It is talking about enabling the air play button in "apps like Videos, Music etc" as you described. So if you have the AirPlay button showing up in the iOS music and video players is it working as it is supposed to. So what is it you are not seeing?

Is there any Vga adaptor for the Ipad 2 that is VIDEO IN rather than OUT?

Is there any Vga adaptor for the Ipad 2 that is VIDEO IN rather than VIDEO OUT? is for a student with visual impairment who needs to view the classroom digital board content from a very short distance, like the distance to an Ipad for example, so the Ipad would be ideal as an interactive monitor with typography and content easy to amplify.
At the moment, this student has a traditional flat screen monitor taking over the table next to him, so no other child can seat in it, and he has no opportunity to befriend and sporadically joke with anybody else. So much for "inclusion".
Please do let me know: [email protected]

Speaking as a teacher ... Why can't he have a student on the other side of him?
