Will this adapter work with a VGA projector for PowerPoint slides. I have a perfectly good projector, but my laptop only has HDMI output.

Yes it worked with my sons' laptop, but you needed a speaker connection cable to get sound. It did not work with my Mac as suggested.

This did not work for me going from my Dell laptop HDMI output to a Canon VGA projector input.

if the dvi is usb to vga on the projector the answer is yes, th other adapter is for usually printers to vga so if you have printer you can test that one if it fits,

Depends on which connections you have on your laptop. It looks like that projector only supports VGA, so you will need a VGA cable (Male-Male). If you do not have a VGA connection on your laptop, then you will need an adaptor to convert the signal from either HDMI or displayport to VGA.

Is it trying to output 1080p HD? This adapter won't work with 1080p. I had to find this out the hard way. Plus, going through many adapters is not a good idea. I'd recommend buying just an HDMI to VGA adapter.

This Mini-DisplayPort DVI adapter will NOT work with a DVI-VGA adapter. You need a separate adapter for that. I test it myself because I needed it for setting up a presentation and it did not work.

it might not be compatible this way it may be only backwards compatible HDMI from the laptop to VGA the TV. I only have experience trying to dumb down component for TV. I don't know if it speeds up VGA to HDMI. Sorry I can't help.

You will need a separate VGA cable to connect to this adapter. They are cheep and easy to find. It's possible the device you are wanting to connect o already has one, or came with one.

I believe that if ur projector has a dvi, its got to be universal and that the cable should work on it for sure .. its a normal dvi but a high speed cable ..

Yes - I bought it for a Series 5 ultrabook and have used it with NO problems on several VGA projectors.

This one will work so copy and paste it into Amazon search:HDE 1080p HDMI Male to VGA Female Video Converter Adapter Cable for PC, TV, Laptops, DVD Players, and Other HDMI Devices

That is the reason I purchased it. It did not work. This converts hdmi to vga. Not vga to hdmi which is what we need. With what I have learned it only works one way.

If your laptop has a VGA out or S-Video connection all you need is the appropriate cable.v if you have HDMI, you will need an active HDMI to VGA adapter. Keep in mind that this will not pass sound, and you need an extra USB port to power the active adapter. DO NOT buy the HDMI to USB cable, it will not work.Otherwise, it is an excellent projector for the money. I picked up a refurbished unit for $169, and it works wonderfully. Steam streaming to a 100" screen is awesome looking on it. This is playing with all the graphics at max.

At our school we found this product to be completely ineffectual in all possible configurations. We tried hdmi out -> VGA in = nothing. We reversed that. Nothing. The same results with the yellow video line. Check the small print from the seller and you'll find they warn it only works if the devices being connected have built in conversion. Otherwise, nothing. You may need a converter, not just a cable. Rad up on your laptop's hdmi output... Good luck!

Mine worked great to convert my computer VGA to the TV HDMI . I don't think it works the other way

I use this adapter with my Dell Inspiron 15 and Acer projector. It works great!

This adapter should allow you to convert your HDMI output to a VGA signal. I am using it to go from an Apple TV with HDMI signal out to a projector with VGA input.

The adapter will allow you to convert DVI-D to VGA. In essence you will be able to attach a Projector with a VGA input to a DVI-D port on either a workstation or laptop. It works perfectly! It even has an additional USB power input on the connector itself if the DVI-D port on the system requires additional power for the digital signal.
