AnswerNo. This adapter is only compatible with newer versions of iOS devices including the iPhone 4, iPod touch 4th generation, iPad and iPad 2. Video out is supported for the iPhone 4, iPod touch 4th generation and iPad while mirroring is only functional with the iPad 2. You can purchase the Apple MiniDisplay Port to VGA adapter for your MacBook to support output via a VGA connection.

Best Answer:First, it is important to understand that with this adapter you are connecting a 2nd display to your iPad. From this point it is up to the app developer to decide if and what will be displayed on this 2nd display when you launch the app.
At this time, the following apps will use the 2nd display:
- keynote - when you shown a presentation
- video - when you play a video
- Photos - when you run a photo slideshow
- Youtube - when you play a youtube video
In all these cases the 2nd display will show the object when you start playing it.
Other apps can follow and offer their support for a 2nd display using this connector since this is part of the iPhoneOS SDK.
As you can understand there is NO mirroring of the iPad primary display.- Answered by Yossef M from Brookline

- Flag as inappropriate (will the 2nd display turn vertical and horizontal position as i do on my ipad?)
Best Answer:No. The Apple product listing states that this only works in landscape mode with movies and slide slows. But it's possible that a future update to the iPad os might change this limitation.
