Sure. Just use Keynote and get familiure with the 3 functions on the remote. Enjoy.

The others are correct - the iPads and iPhones use Keynote as the program that mirros PowerPoint, PAges for Word docs, and Numbers for Excel docs. You can e-mail any of these files to yourslef and open them on your iPad in these programs; and you can also e-mail your presentations to otehrs in Keynote, Powerpoint or even PDF from the iPad and everything goes over without a problem. Some fonts will change, and that is about the only difference. Your remote will work just fine if you follow the instructions that come with it to set it up in the settings of your iPAd mini.

Hi, John! The Satechi should work with the ipad mini just like it does with the ipad. The mini will recognize it via bluetooth as a keyboard and there is instructions out there (google it) on how to put the mini in the mode to use the pointer as a slide advancer for Keynote. Once set up, it's worked really well for me! Let me know if you have any problems or if you need the instructions to set it up correctly. Craig (craigacarver@yahoo.com)

You can if you buy pocketmac or missing sync. I have had better results with ppc devices using pocketmac over missing sync. The palm sync built into osx isn't as good as the stand alone software for palm from pocketmac or missing sync.

Yes but the quality is poor. I connected with iPad and the resolution from keynote/PowerPoint was unreadable

Not sure, I haven't tried it. I just downloaded the PowerPoint app to my iPhone. However I don't see why you couldn't configure it to work.

Yes you can use it with an iPad. You can do it directly with the wifi adapter included for PowerPoint slides. If it is with video you will have to buy the VGA or HDMI adapter for your iPad and the respective cable. Having said that my favorite way of using the iPad with this projector is through Chromecast. I plug it to the projector and I have full control of what is being projected from the IPad.

Yes, we've transferred all our photos and videos from our ipad to my husband's pc laptop. This flashdrive also transfers documents, so it's multi-functional. We've been very happy with it. My husband uses it primarily for sheet music. He plays in a band. He creates setlists and playbooks on his pc laptop, editing the sheet music to highlight key shifts and other notes, and then he saves it to his ipad, which he uses during his gig.

Ignore Brad's answer. There's no way to present a ppt directly from the projector. You can export your ppt from Powerpoint as individual JPGs, and then play those as a slideshow on the projector using the included remote. This sounds more difficult than it actually is. If any of your ppt slides have elements that fade-in, move, etc. that functionality is lost.

I'm sorry but I am not that "savvy" with this stuff and cannot give you an answer. I use this adapter to transfer files between my iphone and ipad.

You should be able to. I use mine with my iPad mini and iPhone and it works great.

It's excellent for PowerPoint presentations. I can't see why it wouldn't work fine for classroom presentations

Without any extra purchase, certainly not. The device uses a printer USB contection and the provided cable is a male printer USB to male USB. So at the very least you would need a converter. As far software compatibility, there is a chance that someone provides the option but at that point, I would generally advise either switching to a laptop/desktop or checking out IPad specific products, sweetwater.com has a lot of technology designed for this rig and beside for a name brand markup, most the gadgets have proven to be of good use.

The mic has a standard USB connector. If a mini doesn't have a standard connector, you'd need an adaptor. Not sure about ipad software drivers . . .

Any idea if it will work for non-Powerpoint? Like Keynote or NeoOffice slideshows?

Yes, I have used this is on my Mac computer and it worked using the HDMI port. If you have the remote control, it may or may not work, I ended up using the PC to change the slide. I have not tried it on my iPhone or iPad.

I have used it with my laptop, it worked fine. I have not tried it with my Surface. The projector was not powerful enough to show the powerpoint to a large audience well. Using it my home, it does great.

I cannot offer an answer as I never tried that. I use this device mainly to copy stuff from and to an Ipad from a USB stick. It works very well doing this. I am. little. dissapointed in the battery life on this product but overall I like what it does. Mike

I have one. Once i saw the question I tried to do it using my Ipad mini wired to the projector througt an HDMI cable. The answer is no. I tried to do that and it doesn't work as expected. This projector has just audio inputs. I think if you plug a RCA cable from your device (PC, DVD, wherever) to your VS 320 projector it'd work. I'm not sure but i guess so. Best wishes.
