[QUOTE="jester070993, post: 1586666, member: 326742"] I bought an 8 pin USB female adapter cable for the ipad, which is meant to connect accessories to the ipad air such as keyboards, camera, and midi controllers. I originally got it so i could plug in midi controller and use garageband, but for some reason my ipad will not recognize anything that I plug in. I tried a normal keyboard and a USB speaker, and still nothing. I looked on videos online and to my understanding something is suppose to pop up when you plug in an accessory - not even this is happening. I even tried a power USB hub and tried to plug in that and then plug in my stuff to the powered hub, and still nothing. Is there something I am missing? Is there a setting I am suppose to change? Or did I just get an adapter online that doesnt work at all? The one I got is this one, [URL]http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HPQUBGK/?tag=macforums0e4-20[/URL] It was pretty cheap which is the main reason I got it [/QUOTE]
