can I load office for mac onto my Ipad, and therefore use powerpoint tp project my presentations onto a monitor via the VGA adaptor regards

Best Answer:You can't load Office to create new documents; instead, you would use Pages (Word equivalent), Numbers (Excel-like), and Keynote (like PowerPoint).
However, you CAN open, view and project Office documents you created on your computer on and through your iPad. You need a) a projection app and b) an adapter to project content onto your TV or through a projector to a screen. One app that let's you do this is, appropriately, called Projector. Another is called Expedition. (You could also try Web-to-VGA, but I think it's just for projecting webpages... must go back and double-check...)
Load the app, then load the file, plug in the iPad-to-VGA or iPad-to-component adapter, plug in to your TV or projector, open your document in the projection app of your choice (yes, you can open Office documents), and away you go.
Make sure you do some practice runs the first time.
Hope this helps!

Best Answer:It's an adaptor only, you'll probably need a VGA cable, as this adaptor is only 7 inches (18 cm) in length.

AnswerNo you will need a aux cable for it to work as the VGA only does video not audio so a separate aux cable will be needed.

Best Answer:
DVI is a little strange, in that some DVI ports do have analog inputs or outputs. If your projector has this sort of DVI port, it will work with the adapter you mentioned. You can usually tell by looking for four small round holes above and below the flat blade connectors on the DVI connector. If they are absent, the DVI is digital only. If they are present, it is likely to be a DVI connection that also has analog capability (in spite of its name). The other responder is correct if the DVI is digital only. The conversion is difficult and expensive. But you may be in luck (as long as the limitations of the iPad VGA connector, and Keynote, mentioned in the reviews are acceptable for your use).

Will this mirror everything on my "new iPad" onto my smart board?

- Flag as inappropriate (Will this mirror everything on my "new iPad" onto my smart board?)
AnswerYES!!! I used this for the first time in class two days ago. Purchasing my own because my HS only has 1 cord. Worth the purchase. Only thing is that you wont be able to use the smart tools. I have a promethean board so I can't use the board pen when hooking up my iPad though.
