I received this speaker stand yesterday and do not see an opening large enough on my IPAD to plug in the adaptor - it is slightly larger it seems than any of the openings on the edges of the IPAD. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? I'm not sure if I have an IPAD 1 or 2 but I was under the impression it fit either one. The stand fits the IPAD well - it's just I can't find where to plug the adaptor into the IPAD. Thanks!

There should be a black plastic piece that turns right or left. It has black faux fabric about 1/2 inch wide in the middle of the plastic piece . This piece is shaped sort of like a cross. In the upright position there is a little silver piece that fits into the bottom of the ipad. This stand will fit both the ipad 1 & 2. You slip the ipad on the arms and down onto the little silver piece. plug in the cord to the back of the logitech holder/speakers, then plug the other end into a wall outlet. In other words, the adapter does not plug into the ipad, it plugs into the speakers. The ipad slides down on the silver piece and the arms hold the ipad so you can use it in a vertical or horizontal position. There should be a black plastic piece that turns right or left.

I have an iPad2. There is a connection in in the back for DC, I just keep it plugged in all the time to the electrical outlet. My iPad slips between the two black clips on each side and right down on the adapter part that fits the iPad (where you would normally plug in to charge it with a regular iPad cord charger.

FYI -- the stand snugly fits the iPad1, and comes with small clip on frame adapters to hold an iPad2. Be sure to check thru the box; we almost missed seeing this small adapter part while unpacking it.

The adapter plugs into the base of the stand in the back. The adapter must then be plugged into an electrical outlet to charge Ipad. You can unplug adapter anytime from base to make your stand mobile if you choose but the charge on Ipad will decrease with use. I just keep my adapter plugged into the stand unless I want to move it and don't want to bother unplugging cord from wall outlet. Hope this helps.

I am going to try mini iPad USB adapter at Apple store next. Nothing else that I got from Amazon worked. Plan on doing that next week. It looks iffy but it is the only thing left to try, and I have seen little to no info on this. I'll try it in the Apple store first and then let you know if if works ASAP.

Hi, I do not own an Ipad 2. I use it with my HTC phones and my Ipod 4th Generation. One is suppose to be able to use it with the Ipad too. You might want to try it. Its great. The sound is great. I use it in my car with my Ipod too. I carry it with me wherever I go, always. I hope this is helpful.

You use the Ipad/Iphone/Ipod USB plug that you have with your current device and the USB plug that came with the speaker. Mine works great but it I want to charge my Ipad I have to use the plug that came with my Ipad.

Hi Corinna, I was asked by Amazon to help try to answer your question. First let me tell you that this speaker ROCKS. I love it. I was thinking about getting another one just incase something happens to the one I have now. I am not sure with the IPOD or IPAD but I have the Iphone 5S and I bought the adapter on Ebay to take it from the 4th generation to the 5th and it works perfect. You will not be disappointed in the speaker PLUS it is bluetooth so in all honesty you should not even need an adapter

I don't think there is any Bluetooth connectivity here. My iPad does not see it. My iPhone 4S does not see it. There is no Bluetooth symbol or sticker on the speakers anywhere. I'm not sure what the item description: "Superb gaming sound effects via Bluetooth,DBB to preserve low tones for deep bass at any volume level." is referring to. I'd be interested in knowing if anyone has connected to it themselves as it would be useful to have my iPad oriented horizontally (for movies) and still use the speakers (undocked).

Sorry. It looks like newer reviews seem to indicate it works on their iPad 1. I say, give it a shot and see if it does. You can always return it!

on my HTC One I had that problem. I found out that the last little bit of the plug was not getting in to the socket. I pushed it in and out a few times and it finally seated. You might want to check with the ipad3 documentation online to ensure that the ipad3 will actually work with this type of connector. It might be a audio only connection like other tablets were originally set up for.

You can buy an inexpensive adapter which allows you to plug the speaker plug into it and then the adapter into Ipad. Very small, about the size of the speaker plug and sells for several dollars in our local electronics store. This will give you both channels.

I had bought the 30-pin to lightning adapter at Apple, when I remembered I have a generation I iPad which I had dedicated to a single purpose device after getting the newer iPad; so I returned the adapter and use the 30-pin iPad. So I cannot confirm whether it works; I do recall that someone (either at Yamaha or Apple, but probably Apple) told me I should use thei Apple adapter.

Hi Naomi, I think you might have me confused. I didn't sell this keyboard I just wrote a review. The one I had worked with my iPad 1st generation just fine. Good luck.

I dont know if you have a mic input on the Ipad? If you do then yes, If not check if they sell an adaptor that you can plug in a mini plug.

Well, I had a lot of difficulties with this particular type of adapter. So instead, I just use the: HEADPHONE ADAPTER - NEW DESIGN with Jack Cover for iPad 2/3/4 Nüüd Lifeproof® Cases from Dixie Superstore at Amazon..Good luck, David

Any iPad, even one with a fairly thick case should work fine with this stand. I took a physical look at my stand last night and while I don't have a case on my iPad when I use it with the stand in question, it looks like about an inch-long rubberized bottom, so that should be more than enough to accommodate your iPad within your case using this stand. If not, and you are buying it through Amazon, returns are fairly easy.

I've got the older iPad 2 (no "Air") and it works perfectly with this speaker dock. The "arms" that hold the iPad are adjustable, so I don't think the difference in dimension would be a problem. But check the charger port specs at the Apple store or at Jensen-I think they made them smaller after the model iPad I've got, so your Air model wouldn't fit. But that's just a hunch-I haven't kept up with the later iterations of the iPad since mine still works fine.

Dear Tigerman82, Overall I love this keyboard and have only 2 minor issues to report. The screen lock key is directly above the delete key and I occasionally hit it by accident. I don't think any key should be on the top right except delete... Also, the space key occasionally sticks in the depressed position. It still functions properly when touched, but it doesn't make the reassuring little click that tells my brain it is going to work. I do not know if this is a defect in just my model or in others too. It is rare anyway, and always pops back up eventually. There are so many wonderful aspects of this product that I don't worry too much about those issues. Number one on that list is how securely the keyboard attaches to the iPad in the closed position. I have never had it slip open or off by accident like similar products by Logitech and others I have used. The backlighting is extremely nice, and the battery lasts seemingly forever. As to your specific question about your screen protector and backing, I am unfamiliar with either product and therefore unable to answer without knowing the total added width they bring to your device. I can tell you that the slot on the top of the keyboard used to stand the device in while typing has some extra room... and I believe if your screen protector doesn't add more that a millimeter of width, it would still work. If it adds a little more than that, I believe it might work, but would stand in a more upright position (rather than the slightly tilted position it is designed to be in). Wider than that and you would have to prop up the device some other way, as it definitely would not fit, though the keyboard would of course still work. I do believe that you would still be able to use the device in its closed position, but can't say for sure. Hope that helps

On the back there is a small slit. You have to push the ipad into that slit and adjust until the ipad gets to the base and the power connector matches the position of the small slit opening on the side. It's very, very difficult to use.
