Answer
No you can not. It requires a device with a lightning connection - iPhone, iPad, etc. You need a different VGA adapter for the laptop.

Will I be able to use this adapter to show a live preview from the GoPro app?
I am a chemistry teacher and my fume hood is in a very tight spot in my class. I want to show reactions that happen in the fume hood over a projector. If I were to use a GoPro camera, the GoPro app, and connect my iPhone 5 to a projector using this adapter, would I be able to get the projector to show a live feed of the reaction?

Best Answer:
Starting with the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S, everything is mirrored on the projector or monitor. So if you have the iPad with Retina Display, iPad Mini, iPhone 5/5S/5C (which are the only models this adapter is currently supported by) you will see apps, videos, pictures, and even apps that don't necessarily support TV Out.
Edit:
The iPod touch 5th generation is also supported, which I believe also has the video mirroring feature.- Answered by Matthew L from Pittsburgh

AnswerI can envision two methods. I use an A/B switch that I press to access my PC thus if the PC is on whatever appears on the PC is projected. The option w/o the PC could be press the sleep switch on your Apple device and assume it goes dark that is what shows on the screen.

AnswerYes, but you'll have to use the headphone jack for audio. Search for "VGA to composite video adapter" for the add on piece you'll need as well as the lightning to VGA adapter.

If so, does the iPad 4 screen mirroring stay on 1024x768 with black bars either side ? does it switch to 1366x768 when playing 720p HD Video?

Best Answer:
I tried this by connecting the 30 pin adaptor to the lightning VGA adaptor, then connecting the video feed to the video in of a TechnoGym treadmill and the 30 pin cable into the designated dock on the machine. The video worked fine and the phone receives charge (from the 30 pin cable). However the gym equipment did not recognise it as a compatible device and would not allow media control or Nike Plus functions. These do work when the 30 pin adaptor is used by itself. It appears the lightning socket on this product does not pass through much more than power (if anything).
