Lightening digital AV adapter necessary for Mac Book Air?
- Asked by Joan H from London
- 25-Jan-2014
- Flag as inappropriate (Lightening digital AV adapter necessary for Mac Book Air?)
AnswerNo, the Mac Book Air does not have a Lightning port. The recent Mac Book Air models use the Thunderbolt port to output to a display - you need the MiniDisplayport to VGA or DVI (depending on the display) adapter. (MiniDisplayport is supported by the Thunderbolt port on any Mac that has Thunderbolt.)

Best Answer:I've no idea why an answer 'Yes' had been posted previously, as it most definitely DOES NOT WORK WITH SKY GO. This is not Apple's doing though, it is because Sky have placed that limitation within their app.

Has anyone had issues using this adapter to stream netflix or HBO GO on a projector?
Just bought the adapter to use it with my iphone 7 on a projector. The projector plays videos from the phone with both picture and audio as well as videos from different apps such as FB and IG.
When i try to stream videos from NETFLIX or HBO GO, the projector will display the Video but it wont play audio.

Can you switch the output to the TV to portrait? So rather than black bars you can match the iPhone rotation and rotate your TV?
- Asked by Emerson A from Washington

- Flag as inappropriate (Can you switch the output to the TV to portrait? So rather than black bars you can match the iPhone rotation and rotate your TV?)
Best Answer:NO, I wish you could do this! I have spent tones of time, and hours of hacking a Raspberry Pi in order to get this functionality to work and still its horrible.
All Apple has to do is allow the orientation of the apple TV to be changed to vertical and it will be freaking awesome!
if they add this simple feature then they will once again have change everything. people will be able to use apple TV as a signage device. or have vertical TVs as hanging picture frames in your home.
I can not believe they have not add this feature yet!
it is quite frustrating.

- Flag as inappropriate (Does the headphone jack still work with this adapter plugged in also?)
Best Answer:Yes it does. However I've noticed that you may have to unplug and then plug in the cable in the headphone jack at first. I'm watching a rented Apple movie on my monitor (HDMI) and using my PC speakers (via the headphone jack) right now.

Best Answer:
No, it's only a "Lightning to HDMI" cable, and not the other way around. It lets you display the conents of the screen of an iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch that has a Lightning connector, on an HDMI-connected display, such as an HDMI TV. It does not allow you to use an iOS device as a display monitor.
