Unaware of limitations before purchasing
I teach high school and thought the vga iPad dock connector would allow me to project everything I see while using the iPad, but a las there are severe limitations to which applications will show on the classroom LCD projector.
I wish I had known this before purchasing the connector. The Apple Store description says the connector will display slideshows and movies, but I didn't realize that was it... …- Written by Leslie L from Keene

Sending mine back because it doesn't enable mirroring.
Once again I get suckered into buying an overpriced iPhone or iPad AV connector because Apple cleverly omits the fact that it only works with certain apps. Don't they realize that people buy these accessories mostly to do demos of apps, or to mirror whatever's on their device's screen? This basic scenario does not work with this adapter. I found that it only works when playing video, or if you're a developer and you write special code in your app to support an external screen. So buyer beware... …

OOOOPS!
Had no problems getting this to work, just getting it to stay plugged in to the iPad. The cable keeps disconnecting with the sligh test bump. Makes it unusable in a classroom. Why not add that little locking mechanism like the chargers for cell phones have? As it stands, I would give away the one I have for FREE because I really can't use it. …

Product Breaks
I am in a school here, where we use these in the classroom to project. Unfortunately, teachers keep wondering why they can't get theirs to work. Well, the cables look perfect, but something inside them gets loose or jarred, and the connection between the iPad and the VGA breaks.
If this products gets a decent amount of use, it appears to break. For a $30 product, I would hope for a better lifetime on these. May as well be a $10 knockoff if I should expect to replace them quickly. …- Written by Pat W from Leland

Whats the point?
Don't buy this if you want to watch anything from iTunes. Not supported, was told at the Apple store I could! Looks like they need to do more employee training. …
