Anyone own an iPad a projector and dongle
-
I need someone who can run a test, total time should only be 15 minutes.
I'd do it myself but am on the road and don't have access to the hardware needed.
Thank in advance

I have done this but by connecting my computer and using this: http://www.mirroring360.com/

Windows laptop specifically
-
What kind of Dongle?
-
Umm...yes I have 2 of those, not sure about the dongle
-
Windows laptop not required, want to connect directly from the iPad to the projector over VGA.
@scottalanmiller vga to lightning dongle
-
Oh I haven't used VGA for anything in a long time
-
If anyone does have these items
VGA to Lightning Dongle
iPad
ProjectorPlease download the Power Point app, and any other app (or use one) and swap back and forth between the power point (in full screen presentation) and the other app.
Let me know if the projection gets stuck inbetween the swap of the apps, but the ipad shows up correctly.

HDMI might work as well, just figured most people dont own HDMI projectors

What's that app called where you use the 1 computer's keyboard and mouse but have it for multiple devices?

That would be weird in this day and age. HDMI is the only really common connection technology. All of my projectors are HDMI.

I have a dongle, but I can't let you borrow it...
Wait, what kind of dongle did you mean?

This should be the OP.

@DustinB3403 sorry I do not have a dongle for the Ipad as I have always gone the software route. I have tried what you asked, however still and have no issues switching back and forth. So I am not able to help you any further.

yeah I know, it takes a lot to formulate an accurate thought here, 97 degrees outside, plus running around heavily in dress clothes.

And it isn't much cooler in this hotel, but things are very pretty here..

and to answer your question @Breffni-Potter it is called Synergy. I use it all the time between my MacBook Pro and my Windows 10 desktop.
