When I plug my adapter in it says it needs to download firmware but doesn’t do anything

My av adapter doesn’t work with my iPad 6. Do I have to manually download this firmware? If so how?

iPad (6th gen) WiFi

Presumably you refer to an Apple Lightning Digital AV Adapter?

Firmware updates should install automatically - and should not be interrupted during the installation process.


While connected to your iPad, the Digital AV Adapter’s installed firmware version can be verified from iPad settings:

Settings > General > About > Apple Digital AV Adapter
