Best Answer:According to Honda, you will need this (the $49 Lightning Digital AV Adapter) plus a Lightning to USB cable and an HDMI cable.
You plug this adaptor into the iPhone, the Lightning to USB cable into it & into the front console USB port on the Civic (for power, I guess), & the HDMI cable into the adaptor & into the console's HDMI port.
Honda sells a kit of all three items, including this Apple adaptor, an Apple 0.5m Lightning to USB cable, & a matching 0.5m HDMI cable for $100. It seems overpriced -- if you add up the retail cost of the two Apple products, Honda is asking $31 for the short HDMI cable! -- but I have not been able to find a quality 0.5m HDMI cable from any other source, so if matching cables (length, color, & quality) are important to you, you can order the kit from Honda's online store. (Honda dealers do not carry it, at least locally in my area.)- Answered by Robert C from Dallas

AnswerThat should work fine. Alternatively if you have a wired sound system you can use an audio cable with 3.5 mm jack to connect it to your iPad.

how to connect with laptop via AV Adapter
- Asked by Mohammad A from Dubai
- 2/02/2014
- Flag as inappropriate (how to connect with laptop via AV Adapter)
Best Answer:Unless the port you are talking about is video capture I doubt it will work. Usually the port on a PC is output to a monitor. That's what this adapter does. Output.
TV HDMI is input. So you need an input port on you PC to see it.- Answered by David J from Austin

AnswerThe first time I tried doing this hookup, nothing showed on my TV. I simply unplugged the HDMI cable from this adapter, then plugged it back in and BOOM, it worked just fine. Make sure that both your TV and iPad are "on".

Can I use the lightning port on this device to connect another adapter? I want to use this for HDMI and also add a lightning to MIDI adapter.
I am using my iPad to display lyrics, but want to mirror it using this adapter onto a screen. I also want my iPad to receive MIDI so I want to add that adapter. So I'm hoping I can use this adapter to not only output HDMI, but also allow use of another adapter to input a MIDI signal.
AnswerNo, you can't. The Lightning port on this adapter only supports power; it does not allow data connection of any kind. To put it another way, you cannot chain other Lightning adapters to this one.

Answer
Yes... but it doesn't seem to work well. I bought it for this purpose and it will only use a portion of the screen, and responds strangely to changing the orientation of the screen. Everything else seems to work fine so I don't think it's a problem with the HDMI adapter, this feature just seems to be restricted.
