Can you stream video from say, an ipad app like hbo through the seagate theater to a tv?

You are able to connect to the network if it is plugged into an ethernet jack. Like I am able to access movie files from wireless computer and wireless harddrive, but I am not sure about an ipad app since I don't have an ipad. I would think you wouldn't be able to if you're watching it from an app, probably if it was stored on your ipad. I would look at apple tv if you want to stream things from your ipad to your tv.

The short answer is no. Your choices to stream from an ipad to tv consists of Apple TV, google chrome cast, and with some tweaking xbmc/playon.

No, you have to load data onto the hard drive, then watch from there. No streaming available.

I have never tried but I have streamed through my ipad so I would think it would work

I don't know, I don't have HBO go but right when I plug it in it mirrors everything I do on the iPad. Every app I've tried had worked great. Sorry I couldn't be more help

No. I use the following to connect my ipad to TV. Got all through amazon...-- Lightning Digital AV Adapter-- AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI Cable (6.5 Feet/2.0 Meters) -- Satechi BT MediaRemote Bluetooth Multi-Media Remote Control for iPhone, iPad & iMac, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, MacBook, and Mac Mini

may depend on I-pads docs to projector. If bluetooth is used , then maybe! My kids' ipad has no video out port but I have not tried it that way. LCD would have to be bluetooth equipped

Is it possible? Yes. Is it practical? No. Based on app version 2.6.6, firmware 2.9, iPhone w/ 7.0.4, iPad w/ 6.1.3, the app doesn't directly support AirPlay. You can do it by: 1. Connect Media Drive to your home access point over wifi. 2. Determine the Media Drive's IP address on your home wifi network. This is NOT the 192.168.11.1 address of the Media Drive's self-generated wifi network. 3. Access the web portal through the browser by entering the IP address of step 2. You need to use a browser that allows User Agent spoofing (I use Mercury). Set the User Agent to some desktop browser. If the drive thinks you're connecting with a mobile browser, it will instead prompt you to connect with the app. 4. Browse to the video of your choice, click twice, and stream to Apple TV. This is both cumbersome and requires a lot of free bandwidth on your home network. The stream is bouncing from Media Drive, to router, to iPad, back to router, to Apple TV. My experience has been that it's not a great solution.

Well I've tried to do that and failed, however I'm not that great on technical stuff, ask my husband. I do have an Apple TV hooked up to it and play remotely from my projector info coming from a computer in my office

Yes there is a "mini" HDMI input. You would just need the cable for your ipad that has a mini HDMI end.

No but you can connect your laptop or ipad to your tv and watch it that way.

Yes, as long as the movie is already on your iPad or your iPad has cellular data activated and you stream the movie from the Internet.

Absolutely not. This accessory is only to swap the default USB plug of a Seagate GoFlex portable hard drive for a Firewire connector.To view videos and movies on your iPad, you have to use iTunes to upload them on your iPad or use an application like Dropbox to sync them.

I don't believe you can, altough I'm not entirely sure. You can always use apple's "AirPlay mirroring" feature by purchasing an Apple TV and using a wifi network. You can stream your screen from your current iPad or iPhone to the projector.

Not all services work with the IPad so if it's not working chances are it won't. Just verify that the source is setting correctly on the TV. Also if you're looking to stream go w/ an Apple TV device. It works very nicely. Again not EVERYTHING will work with it but most of what I have tried other than Amazon Video has worked.

Short answer NO Sorry... HBO Go is no.... Just now correcting myself I found out from below web site. TV and Blue-rays have different content... to check apps go tohttp://www.samsung.com/us/appstore/app/G00009411006Be sure it says TV and Blue-ray player.... or check Model specifically available on page.

VGA is only for the video not the sound. I use this adapter to connect to a projector that I have which does not have HDMI. I then connect a 3.5 mm cable into the iPad earphone/speaker jack to get sound. You could do the same for your TV. I also bought the apple lightning to HDMI adapter for connecting to my TV. That adapter carries both video and audio like you wanted but you must have an available HDMI port on your TV for it to work. The bottom line is the adapter you purchased only carries the video signal. For sound with that adapter you have 3 choices: 1. Use the sound on your iPad. 2. Plug a cable into your iPad earphone jack and some sound device (your TV). 3. Connect your iPad to a Bluetooth speaker system. I use this method when it's available.

I found a couple of options.... my easiest one is to use ChromeCast (Google Device for $35) but the only problem is that you have limited access as to what you can watch on the bluray player. I believe iPad makes a special connector too but don't quote me on that.
