Wirelessly connect ipad to projector

I am a teacher and am looking to buy and ipad for my classroom. Another teacher in my building uses an app on her ipad to record notes and upload them to a website for students. Right now, she can connect her ipad to a projector with a cord but has to stay stationary. I would like to know if there is a way to wirelessly connect the ipad to the projector. Maybe by using an Apple TV? This would allow me to walk around the classroom. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.

Connecting to a projector does require a cable.
Your Apple TV idea could work, if the TV was at the front of the room, both are connected to Wi-Fi and you can use mirroring for the display.

Connect ipad to projector or PC

I teach in a classroom that has a PC connected to an Epson projector. I would like to use an ipad app (such as explain everything) to record audio/video of me working problems in class. At the same time I'd like the ipad screen to be projected by the Epson projector. I'm not sure if the projector has wireless capabilities, but it may. If so, is there a way to connect the ipad to the projector wirelessly? The other possible option is to connect the ipad to the PC wirelessly (I don't want my ipad tethered to anything), then the PC connects to the projector. Can anyone give me pointers on whether any of this is possible and if so, what is the best approach?

The only way, I believe, to connect an iPad wirelessly to a projector is by connecting an AppleTV to the projector - and I don't think most projectors have the correct input for it.
You can use a number of apps to control the computer through the ipad. There are a few apps that are designed to replicate an interactive whiteboard. One I'm trying is Splashtop Whiteboard - it allows you to use the iPad to annotate over an image on the computer and then project it, or to even use their own flipboard as a background to writing. This would, in theory, allow you to do your work directly on the iPad and send it to the projector through the computer. I say in theory because we are having problems with it, both the app itself and then running it through a whiteboard projector - I've been working with a tech support rep at Splashtop to see if we can resolve it before I can decide whether to recommend to other teachers, as right now I can't - but other people apparently are using it succesfully.
Another app that has similar promise (and higher reviews!) is Doceri Remote. The app is free, but the desktop software is not - $50 (the splashtop app is $20), plus they strongly recommend their proprietary stylus. Because they sell the computer software and not the app, however, you can do a trial - 5 days, I believe, we're going to give it a try after winter break. You can also, I believe, record your presentation using Doceri.
For recording ... while Doceri promises it, it might be easier to use a Screencast software (such as Jing) to record it on the computer - if you're using one of these apps to control the computer and project out, anything on the computer will be recorded by Jing and then you can share it later.

Printing with HP Deskjet 1510 from wireless connected ipad using computer connected to broadband

Hi,
I am trying to figure out easy way to print any content from my ipad connected with wifi through xp computer to HP Desjket 1510,

Hi Ieb_Fabulous,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I gather you are trying to hook your Deskjet 1510 printer to your laptop with a wireless connection.
This printer does not support wireless connectivity. I have included the Deskjet 1510 Printer Specifications for your reference.

How to wirelessly connect iPad in a classroom?

We are from education organization and would like to purchase 10 pcs of iPad for the classroom use. We will use it to connect each student in a group setting and interact with them. The teacher and the student always at the same page and each one of them able to respond to the question being asked and will update to all screen together. Please advice will the iPad 4 able to do it and what apps or gadget we need to purchase in order to make it work. Thanks.

That is possible with the iPad, you would need to install an app like gotomeeting (http://www.gotomeeting.com/fec/ipad_iphone_android_apps) and have an wireless network.

Connecting iPad to Projector - Panasonic PT-D5700 - Video "Jumps"

When connecting the iPad and iPad 2 via VGA connector to a Panasonic PT-D5700 projector, the video "jumps" at a regular interval of about 1.5 seconds in between each jump.
Has anyone else had issues connecting to projectors?
I was able to find a work around - I took the VGA connection from the iPad into an aux input on a document camera, then used the output from the doc cam and that seemed to clean up the signal and did elimate the jumping. I have made this work with one brand of document camera, but not on another.
The VGA out of the iPad to a Plasma or LCD has worked with no issue, so I can only assume it is some sort of refresh or signal mismatch between the iPad and the projector.
If anyone has any info to share it is appreciated.
Thanks

That's no guarantee. Check this list and make sure your mini is supported.

If your Bose can switch HDMI, why not get a DVI to HDMI cable and use that between the mini and the Bose? The picture quality will be lightyears better.

Connecting ipad to projector

I am trying to show my imovie on my ipad on a projector. When I connect the VGA cable the top border lights up blue but soon disconnects.

You need to buy an apple digital av adapter which is for a hdmi connection or an apple vga adapter for a vga connection.

Want to wirelessly display iPad on projector in my classroom

I have an iPad 2 and would like to display what I am seeing and doing on the iPad on the projector in my classroom. The projector is hooked to a desktop pc. How would I go about this?

If the projector is attached to the ceiling with special cables through the ceiling and walls to the PC, then you'll have to find a way of connecting the iPad directly to the projector, not through the PC. Check to see which types of input the projector offers, then check the Apple store for the appropriate cable. However, I suspect the real problem will be finding a long enough cable to reach the ceiling.
If the projector is a portable one that sits on a stand that you can easily reach, then you should have to problems, assuming the cable inputs for the projector are compatible with what Apple sells.

Connecting iPad to projector (tv) via Denon avr 590 with hdmi cable

I did connect my iPad with hdmi to hdmi port I can hear sound but cannot see the video. I am using Netflix streaming. What am I doing wrong?

I use the Apple TV Adaptor. You connect IT to your TV, which means no Cable restrictions on your i Pad. The Adaptor is under my TV allowing the i Pad to be anywhere close by.

Where do i get the cable to connect Ipad to projector?

Where do I get the cable to connect Ipad2 to digital projector?

It depends on the kind of projector you refer to. If the projector has a VGA connection, you will need this cable.
If the projector has a HDMI connection, you will need this one.
If you can choose, I would take the HDMI one, since it supports charging your device and playing at the same time. HDMI also carries sound, so you don't need an extra audio cable.
You will need an additional HDMI-male to HDMI-male or VGA-male to VGA-male cable to connect the apple cable (linked above) to your projector.

Is it possible to show a presentation from the original iPad via wireless on an older projector with no HDMI input?

is it possible to show a presentation from the original iPad via wireless on an older projector with no HDMI input? If so, what equipment is needed?

The ipad not support wireless projector yet.
The workaround is you are using computer that connected wirelessly [needs 2 wireless adapter] / via cable to projector and connected also to the wireless router.
You are controlling the computer via wireless connected to the router using remote desktop app like splashtop, teamviewer, logmein, vnc, etc. You must set the remote desktop port and app at the computer too as ipad app support.

I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

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 droping 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

How do I wirelessly connect my iPad 4 to a Sony Bravia TV?

My Sony Bravia KDL-32W653A recognises that my iPad4 is on my LAN. But I just can't get the iPad content ( videos ) to show up on the TV screen.
The iPad Settings shows the " direct -GC-Bravia" other connection, but it wants to revert to my (John Lewis wireless connection.
If I tap on the other, Bravia panel I am asked for a password. I don't have a password for it and never have had. If I try to use my Apple password or that of my Sony support log-in or even my LAN home group , the iPad just messages:- "Unable to connect to Diect-GC-Bravia"
I seem to go round in circles and get nowhere- Can anyone out there who has an iPad 4 (retina display AND a Sony Bravia TV help me please?
Maybe even a Sony employee? who owns a similar iPad?
Davidthebass.

You dont. Apple won't allow widely used standards and Sony is so behind the times in this area it's painful and almost as bad. Apple forces you to buy an Apple TV whereas Sony forces you to own an android phone to do this natively. Surprise!
disappointed I started my smartphone tenure with Apple; had no idea how badly it was going to burn me in about 100 different ways over the years. All they have on android these days is more efficient hardware...: and since they don't take advantage of it... It's a moot point at the price premium.
as for Sony. I just spent more than I did on my last car for their flagship and id be satisfied if it costed about 75% less and wasn't a "smart" TV. Since it is - and this is 2015; the cost coupled with the inability to properly stream or mirror from.... Meh. Not gonna waste another word. If neither get it by now, they never will. Talk with your wallet guys, it's the only language they understand. Unfortunately they are wise enough to know the sheep outnumber dramatically so it's in vain anyhow.

My ipad 1 for no apparent reason no longnet. Our home wireless connection is working for all other devices. Any clues?

You can also try to reset your network settings on the iPad. Go to Setings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.
Good Luck!

Ipad wireless connection to Color Laserjet pro MFP M177

Struggling on set up. The printer seems to require a network through which to wirelessly connect to my IPAD. But my IPAD runs on 3G and is not part of any network in my office. I already have the IPAD connecting to a HP printer at home where there is a network, but not at my office location. so ive already got the HP eprint App up and running, but it cant identify the printer, which is switched on (but which is asking for me to select a network). So can anyone direct me as to how I wirelessly (no other way with an IPAD) connect my IPAD to my brand new Laserjetc Pro MFP printer ? Mny tks
This question was solved.

Hi,
You should either plug the printer to your network via an Ethernet cable or wirelessly by running the installation on a PC, then connect the iPad to the same wireless network as the printer.
If you do not have a wireless network at the office you may also use the Wireless Direct feature of the printer by following these steps:
