Questions & Answers for Lightning to Micro USB Adapter

The description says:

"The Lightning to Micro USB Adapter lets you connect an iPhone or iPod with Lightning connector to micro USB cables and chargers to sync and charge your device."

So yes. Any micro USB cable will work just fine.

No. This simply swaps the tail end of the normal iOS sync cable to a standard micro-usb.

You can't use a USB pen drive directly with the iPad 2, even when using the camera kit (which supports USB connection to certain digital cameras), neither can you connect USB hubs or other peripherals - only certain digital cameras.

One workaround is to use a USB pen drive that accepts SD cards with your computer, then remove the SD card from the pen drive and use the second device which comes with the iPad camera kit - the SD card reader, to transfer the files.

Bear in mind that even with this second method you can only transfer photographs (and only those photos in a format compatible with iOS). You're best off using a 3rd party cloud service on your computer and loading a suitable cloud client from the App Store on your iPad to be able to transfer and those files to the iPad for use with a compatible App.

No. iPhone 4 use the old 30-pin connector. you'll need Lightning to 30-pin adaptor for that.

Per an EU MoU (IP-09-1049), mobile phone manufacturers are required to support micro-USB connections on their devices. This ensures that regardless of device, one type of charger connection will work.

Apple satisfies this requirement by providing an adapter at additional cost. If you're like most people and have multiple devices that use micro-USB in addition to newer Apple products, this device allows you to use the same cables for all of them, be it charging or connecting to your computer.
