You can connect your iPad to the projector in more than different ways. You may need VGA or HDMI ports and cables along with the right adapter. Some of the newer model projectors let you connect with a single wire.

- Most of the iPad has got a lighting port which has been recently replaced by a USB C-type port. So ensure that you have the right cable to connect to the iPad.
Connect with Apple TV
