I cant get this projector to work with anything except my itunes videos. Am I missing something?

I have had the same problem. Plays iTunes videos only as far as I can tell. Unless I'm missing something, if you want to play Amazon videos, for instance, you're out of luck.

This thing is a piece of junk. My credit card got my money back. It's a waste of time.

i absolutely love mine. i use it on my ipad and my computer. it works with the netflix app, itunes, youtube, etc. on my ipad. on my laptop i just use the cinemin as a secondary display. it's great. the only thing i don't love about it is when using it on my ipad i would prefer to keep the sound on the ipad over the tiny speakers on the cinemin.

Dear Zachary, I just tested this on the projector I have for sale. I hooked plugged in the HDMI cable and I hooked up the audio to Bose speakers through the audio out port. The video was on screen and the sound came out of my speakers. It works great! I still have my speaker available and I hope you consider me as a seller when buying on Amazon! Thanks! - Jake Zerner

I've tried a few different video types but all through a smart bluray player. What are you playing? based on how it seems to function id say that should work.

Will this projector work with adapters and apps that will over ride so you will be able to use all the functions with this projector

you need to download the projector's driver to your computer, so your laptop can recognize it, I just dont know where to find the driver, i want to know too.

I'd recommend returning the projector if you need it to connect to anything else but a older iphone or ipad with the old 30 pin connection. Any additional cables are impossible to find and 3M doesn't manufacture them anymore from what I understand.

Do you know the connection type on the digital projector? It should be either DVI, VGA, or HDMI. You can find them by searching for the type of adapter "to Mini DisplayPort" on Amazon.

Hi Felicia! I think I had the same problem when I started for the first time the projector...I have windows 8 in my notebook..I needed to adjust the resolution at Control panel. Or maybe check the configurations at projetor menu. I hope you solve your problem, if not, let me know. =)

Change your HDMI cable. I have gone through many HDMI cables with this projector. Your cable needs to be in absolute perfect condition, and it can easily get messed up if you ever mess with it (i.e attaching, reattaching, adjusting). Getting a new cable should hopefully solve the problem.

If it is an old style ipad (pre Ipad 4), then you just need to obtain the Iphone/Ipad connector cable. It is a special cable just for this purpose. Then, you can use the Videos app or any app with video out capabilities to view movies/shows on the projector.

It only plays iTunes Plus music/music videos. It can't play the kind with drm. I'm going insane over it because iTunes is the only place to buy music videos.

the only way to hook up anything (other than a pre iphone 5)is to connect via VGA. For this you need a VGA adapter from your device- be it an iPhone 5 or a macbook-AND a VGA to projector cable. And there's the problem, the proprietry VGA to projector cord is almost impossible to get since I bought my projector. Great little device, but I can't get a VGA cable. My advice is locate a cable first, or buy a different model. I am pretty disappointed I bought this, i was pretty excited at the use I could out it to at work and home, but it's instead barely been used.

I honestly don't know...what i do know is i hook up my mac and my son's HP to it and play videos through the projector and it works great. Sorry I can't be more of a help.

I have the same projector and it works just fine with a source from either a media player, computer, android tablet or bluray player. It can also switch 2D to 3D. Its an efficient compact converter. You can also power it directly from the usb port in the projector. The connector is not supplied. I used one fromthose old power pack connectors.

I actually haven't tried anything like that Patrick. The system does have built in audio, but the iphone 4 projector functionality is mainly for videos or photostream slideshow-- I used it for a couple medical demonstrations but its more cumbersome than convenient for industrial work.

I was not able to hook it up directly. I plugged the DVD sound to an external speaker and I plugged the video to the projector. Plugging the sound cable directly to the projector did not work for me.
