r/iphone on Reddit: iOS 16 and lightning to hdmi adapter not working. Help
September 18, 2022 -
Since I updated my software to iOS 16 my lightning to hdmi adapter isnt working. It says it needs to download a new firmware but nothing ever gets downloaded. Is anyone else having this problem? I have a place in woods without internet so I watch most of my shows through my tv/iPhone so this is a big problem for me. Is anyone else experiencing this? Anybody have ways to fix??

I had the same issue first time I tried to use mine. I had already disconnected from internet when it gave the download new firmware prompt so nothing ever downloaded. I did find a workaround by turning the phone off and back on again and making sure internet was connected while I plugged it in. Gave it about 5 min and it was ready to go. Hope this helps.

I think it’s time for a Class Action Lawsuit. I know multiple people who have purchased new Apple Lightning adapters and HDMI cables (including myself) thinking this would correct the issue- NO BUENO!! I thought the issue was with my Spectrum TV app since YouTube and other apps worked, so I paid $$ for the Sling TV app and that doesn’t work either. I have spent close to $100 trying to get this issue resolved with buying new HDMI cables and new Apple Lightning adapter. It’s no longer just an annoyance, but a financial issue. I can prove it’s all due to the recent IOS 16 update. All I need to do is borrow my son’s IPhone which is still running 15.7 and it works perfectly with the HDMI cable. I have spoken with Apple Reps and they said they have an open tickle for this. Riiiiight. Some of the comments on this thread are over two months old, so this issue is clearly not being taken seriously by Apple. Imagine all of the people who were told by APPLE the issue was with their HDMI cable and/or Lightning adapter and went out and spent $50 to $100 for new ones. All you have to do is Google “HDMI no longer working after latest Apple update” and you will see multiple comments and complaints with ZERO workarounds. I live in CA, so it should be pretty easy to find an attorney. I’m just beyond frustrated now.

November 27, 2024 - Hi All, I think this issue is with Apple (and now me!) following the installation of IOS 18.1.1. I Zwift using my Iphone XR and project to a monitor using a lightning adapter, I have very rarely had any issues with this until I installed IOS 18.1.1 as now the signal does not leave my phone to project onto the monitor (not just on Zwift - it’s the same on the home screen & any other app).

USB-C Digital AV Adapter not working with IPad Pro 11inc 2021 I have an IPad pro 2021 11inc model and it is having issues with the USB-C Digital AV Adapter (bought it from apple.ca) when I am using it with Elgato HD60s and mirroring the screen in OBS Studio. It will keep disconnecting with the error "no signal" every few minutes and then I will have to unplug and plug again, restart OBS, restart IPad or restart the PC. Still, it will work sometimes and sometimes it stays on the same error screen "no signal". Before buying this IPad I used iPhone 11 pro max with Lightning Digital AV Adapter and it worked like a charm.

Spectrum TV and Apple HDMI to Lightning connector not working? — Spectrum Community
November 27, 2022 - In one of the posts on this thread from the Apple Community, Apple has removed access using the AV connection when away from home. Please test it again when you return to your home network. Since Apple has removed access using cell data, instead of mirroring from you phone, you can try using a different portable device such as a Roku.
