Lightning to HDMI no longer working with IOS16 update

Lightning av adapter to HDMI no longer working after IOS16 update. Updated to current iOS 16.0.3 using Apple certified cord, turned off and on, phone is updated and backed up. It work until ios16. Another phone works, but not updated to the iOS16. For example Netflix mirrors from phone to tv and will play the trailer, but once I hit play the screen goes black and says now playing on your tv. But is not playing anything. How can I fix this issue? Thank you.

NOT a solution.

Any USB-C ipad or iphone works fine. Thats not the issue. Its the Apple official LIGHTENING HDMI adapter that no long works as sokd and promised by Apple. Wifi connection does nothing to fix lightening Apple adapter. Plus when in use -needing any wifi defeats the entire purpose of downloading content to play later.


Apple - its reprehensible you still haven't fixed this year and half long broken Apple adapter hardware issue thats still effecting millions of paid customers.

Forgotten Rebel, 

man, its tough reading what you and your mom have been going through. I was hoping to read that you had the same “suddenly working again experience” I had. But instead, I’m hoping the reason for your silence is because caregiving is very time-consuming, and that your mom is doing well and getting stronger every day.

I have only used Apple products since smartphones. I bought the 14 pro max and it has been nothing but problems. I also am unable to stream through the apply certified hdmi connnector. I have access to an iPhone 11 that streams with no problems, so it’s not anything that Apple specialist have suggested. This needs to be taken care of by Apple. If not, I’m getting an android.

My Apple Lightning Digital AV adapter does not work with iOS version 17.4.1 on my iPhone 12 mini. Has this bug not been addressed yet? I have verified it is not YouTube TV blocking the video and it is not the adapter itself.

Fortunately I have a very old iPad that is running iOS 10.3.3 and it streams video from YouTube TV with my current adapter.

I certainly would like to be able to use my iPhone 12 mini to stream since it is much faster and doesn’t buffer like the old iPad.

Has anyone found a fix or work around to these Apple updates? Has anyone from Apple indicated that this issue still exists for many users?

Just like everyone else. Lightning to cable and tv only works on some things. My Dish DVR recordings will not show on hotel tv. We just bought and paid almost a hundred dollars for a brand new Apple lightning device and a new premium high speed HDMI cable because we thought it was a problem with the old one . Not so. Hulu works. HBO works, etc. But dish sometimes works but not recordings or Prime Video . It’s frustrating that we can’t watch our shows since we travel all over the US for work. Also we’ve also had Apple smart phones and IPads for years . We’re paying for expensive equipment from Apple and cannot watch unless we are home. Mine stopped working with the newest update from Apple just like everyone else is complaining about. Can Apple not correct the problem they have created for thousands of your faithful customers?
