Overview

Use the Apple Digital AV Adapter to mirror whatever’s on your iPad 2 screen or iPhone 4S — apps, presentations, websites, and more — on your HDTV or HDMI-compatible display in up to 1080p HD (movies play at up to 720p).

Watch slideshows and movies on the big screen in up to 720p by connecting your iPad, iPhone 4, or iPod touch (4th generation) to an HDTV or HDMI-compatible display.

The Apple Digital AV Adapter routes digital audio to screens that support it.

Connect the Apple Digital AV Adapter to your iPad, iPad 2, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S or iPod touch (4th generation) via the 30-pin dock connector and to your HDMI-compatible display using an HDMI cable (sold separately).

A second 30-pin connector built into the AV adapter lets you charge and sync your device while it’s connected to your HDMI-compatible display.

    Mirrors nearly any app off the iPad 2 - with audio - over the HDMI cable. Looks great on my Samsung HDTV. Also works on the DVI monitors and projector at work with an HDMI to DVI connector changer.

    Works on the iPhone 4 and iPad 1 for movies and other apps that support video-out (like Keynote, GoodReader and Atomic browser).

    Can charge and do video out at the same time by plugging in both the HDMI cable and the charger. Should also work with both the HDMI cable and the camera connection kit at the same time, too.

    The only very minor negative is that the 30-pin connector end is a bit thick and may not fit through with some iPhone and iPad cases.     …More

    This device should be recalled by Apple
    • Written by RC from Port Orchard
    • Feb 20, 2012

    The Apple Digital AV Adapter that I purchased did not work with my iPhone 4. I tried using several HDMI cables and two TV sets to rule out other hardware problems. The adapter worked initially with Netflix and then froze. The PBS application would only stream sound and no video. It would not even display photos consistently. Based on many other reviews in this forum expressing similar problems, Apple should pull this device from the market. Thiis product is not ready for consumer use. …More

    Where's the evidence of any quality control being practiced for this produ?
    • Written by BN from Big Canoe
    • Feb 13, 2012

    I'm very disappointed that this adapter doesn't perform as advertised.

    Not only did the connector NOT fit snugly in my either my or my wife's iPhone 4S sockets which prevented ANY display on my HDMI tv due to the tv not seeing the connection at all, on my iPad I was able to get a couple of streaming vidios to work, but not as the product description represents - i.e, 'whatever you see on your iPad, you'll see on your HDMI tv! Very unreliable and quite frankly a waste of money. I'm returning the unit I purchased and requesting a replacement - hopefully it'll work! If not, you'll be sure to hear about it!

    Seems that quailty control re Apple accessories has been put on the back burner!     …More

  • Can I connect ipad to external hard drive to save files?

    I saw a YouTube Video whereas it demonstrated that the IPAD was incompatible with the USB memory stick. Furthermore, it did not have enough power to power a USB powered External hard drive and did not even recognize a AC powered hard drive.

    Conclusion, at this time you cannot connect an IPAD to an external hard drive. However, with a max of 64 gig and the demand to view medial such as movies and pictures it seems Apple would add this feature to their IPADs.

    It seems to me that his is a high demand feature.     …More

  • Can the iPad 2 be used as an external monitor?

    simple answer - YES
    in depth answer - the only way this can be done as far as i know is by using one of two apps. one is for windows, the other is for Mac. this is done through a common wifi connection. this means that there is a very bad lag when dragging windows and watching movies and probably all other tasks. so basically yes it can, but quite poorly. the only way that it could be done really well and smoothly is by using the HDMI connection to the computer. but i don't think that it can be done yet. so when the IOS allows it (I HOPE) the ipad can be properly used as a secondary monitor. but if you cannot wait for that (thats only if it happens) then here are the two apps necessary for this process. for Mac - "Air display". and for windows - "MaxiVista". both of these apps have sister software for your computer. the apps are kinda expensive at $9.99 for airdisplay and $12.99 for maxivista. they include instructions for the whole process. enjoy your second monitor :) …More

    You can use it for the same things you can currently use the other video connectors for (VGA, Component, etc). This is limited to photos, videos, and output from specific apps like Chopper 2. Safari does not have a video out function. …More
