I don't seem to have the female on my original surface for the male on this. Is this not compatible with the original surface?

It designed for the Surface.....Its a mini HDMI......just below the speaker and above the USB on the right side of the MS Surface very small opening that's it.

The upper part of the right side of your Surface RT (original) has the small speaker at the top and the mini-HDMI port (female) below it, and under that is the full sized USB port. You should notice the male mini connector has a cap on it for protection. Also notice the plastic head has a slant to match the slanted side of the tablet. Make sure you seat it correctly when connecting. It is sensitive to movement once in place, so make sure the tablet is not moved around while using it. I've used mine several times, and it works great.

I'm afraid you won't be able to use it with any surface model. The connectors are not compatible.

No. At least not the one I have, which is for my Surface 3. Check with Manvex though, and see what they have. I bought mine from the Microsoft Store with the Surface 3.

Interesting, since I did not review this product I'm not sure what you're talking about, even though I did purchase it. It turns out that the male connector on the end of wand was not compatible with the EZ Clean AEZ31023 Surface Cleaner that I also purchased at the same time. I ended up using an air hose connector but had to grind off some of the hex nut end (where the wrench fits to tighten). It then slid all the way into the surface cleaner female coupler. Hope this helps.

I've also confirmed with EVGA today that it is NOT compatible with Surface Pro 3. I called after trying to connect to mine and it did not work.

I have read reviews that this is compatible with the Surface PRO 2. I own a Pro 1 so I really did not test it. I also went to Best Buy one day and the rep said it is compatible. The difference is that the touch keyboard cover for the PRO 2 is a bit thinner and has options for colors.

Yes. The newest version of the touch cover is slightly differnt but would still work with you're surface, This model will be an even closer fit and will work perfect. (:

This happened to me once. I just unclicked it from the surface nd reattached it than it worked. I guess it didn't connect correctly when I tried the first time and haven't had any problems since..it may also just be a defective one. Hope you get it fixed!

You can purchase a male/female adapter (cheaply) that provides the correct interface. If I remember correctly, it's a 1/4" to 3/8" conversion.

I don't know for sure because I have the regular surface and it fits great :)

I have the connected to my original surface pro (gen1). It is a capacitive display, so your ntrig will not work. Finger touch ...

Yes. I don't have the brand new Surface, my Surface has plenty of room inside. I can even put some extra things in with it. You'd be fine. And it's a great case!!

I don't know if Surface Pro and Pro 2 sharing the same screen. Even if they do, the shield doesn't fit either, since the cutting window for camera is in the wrong side. I had it replaced once and still came out the same, so I quit.

I purchased one for my Surface Pro and my Surface RT. They had different plugin heads. Based on the different descriptions of the two adapters, I wouldn't think that they are interchangeable but I am not certain. Sorry.

Yes, but there is also the newer Surface 2. So, generally seeing just Surface means it's not the Surface 2. I'm using a Surface RT, the first model.Dennis

Yeah same here. I went to Microsoft's Surface website and found that they must have had this happen a few times. What I did (after I returned one then the second did not work either but worked better). Some quick steps: 1. Open the charm bar and select "Settings" charm. 2. Select change PC Settings. 3. Select Updated and Recovery. 4. Select Recovery. 5. Under "Refresh your PC..." select the "get started" button. 6. follow directions. This will fix up the machine so that recognizes the new keyboard. You will not lose any files. You will have to re-install all your MS updates. 7. If this doesn't work you will want to go nuclear and select the the recovery option of "Remove Everything and Reinstall Windows". I did not have to go nuclear. After this the thing worked great. One thing is that my fist keyboard was completely dead. The second one had a few keys working and it lit up the keys. So I think the first one would not have worked ever. you may want to evaluate that too. Good Luck!
