So, hooked this up to my Ipad, and to my Tv, and I get no signal, and a message on my ipad that "This accessory is not supported by Ipad" ...

Hi Anita, this lead works OK on my iPhone 4 but I have never tried on a iPad. Occasionally an App will not allow video output to a TV screen, but this seems to be intentional by the app developers.

This cable works well with apps like netflix and other movie apps. Does not work well with youtube. I dont think its the cable having problems, but the apps.

You will have to go on your tv settings and select a/v . Then on your iPad just select ok give a couple of seconds and it should work, * make sure the a/v colors are match up with your tv's and the #'s as well.

It works great with my iPad 2 (IOS 6.x.x), a common HDMI cable and this adapter: Patuoxun Dock Connector to HDMI Adapter for iPad 2 3rd iPhone 4 4S 4G iPod Touch 4G - Watch and Share Videos and Slideshows on Big High Ddefinition Screen, Not support IOS 8.0

I have an IPad 3 and this generic device will work for about 30 seconds before the iPad says the device is not supported when hooked up to my monitors at home and at the office. That is, it does not work well for me. A friend borrowed it and said she had success using it with her iPad on a different monitor. I would not purchase this again because of the compatibility issue with my hardware.

I have the same problem. This item is advertised as being compatible with IPADs and I assumed all of them. Big disappointment!

Sorry, I've failed completely in connecting mine to my iPad via Bluetooth. Therefore I can't hear anything!

Mine connected to the iPad 2 and 3 with no problem. I don't know what to suggest.

I got it to work with my iPad, which was iOS5 until yesterday. Haven't tried it with iOS6. Note: older, cheaper TVs with HDMI inputs may struggle to connect, newer ones seem to work fine. Not sure why.

Can only use airplay. Video is hit or miss (device shows up as audio only most of the time) using iOS 7. Works fine with iOS 6 or android

I had a first generation IPad and it didn't work for me either. I got only audio. I returned it for a refund and got a roku.

You need a specific cable to interface with the iPad. This cable was discontinued.

I have iPad2, and mirroring only works for video, but it does not have audio. I have tried many times, including restarting the iPad. Nothing worked. I was told that I need to get a separate audio cable to get sound. I'm sorry, I don't think my answer is helpful.

Mine broke too. Not only that but a few months after I bought this, I started getting messages that on the iPad that the device was not supported. After that, it simply stopped working with the iPad altogether. I plan on going in and changing my rating to 1 star. I will not buy iLuv anything ever again.

VGA is only for the video not the sound. I use this adapter to connect to a projector that I have which does not have HDMI. I then connect a 3.5 mm cable into the iPad earphone/speaker jack to get sound. You could do the same for your TV. I also bought the apple lightning to HDMI adapter for connecting to my TV. That adapter carries both video and audio like you wanted but you must have an available HDMI port on your TV for it to work. The bottom line is the adapter you purchased only carries the video signal. For sound with that adapter you have 3 choices: 1. Use the sound on your iPad. 2. Plug a cable into your iPad earphone jack and some sound device (your TV). 3. Connect your iPad to a Bluetooth speaker system. I use this method when it's available.

I bought the cheapest VGA adapter (dongle) I could find, and a very cheap VGA cord to connect it to the projector. This connection did not produce good enough quality to play anything on the iPad. I know it is not the fault of the projector because a Play Station 3 connected through HDMI worked perfectly fine. If you need to connect your iPhone or iPad, make sure you get connectors that will work, don't just look for price. Now I have to buy a new adapter.
