Apple Composite AV Cable no longer working after ios7 update. Only getting sound.

Hi

same problem here

my (apple original) AV cable used to give me TV output in youtube and other video applications with both iphone 4S and ipad2.

Now the only videos i can get out are my own recorded ones in My pictures. Rest of applications only audio out.

Setings are correct to PAL (Europe) but no signal. 3 dfferent TVs tried out.

Help!

thanks

I would like an official confirmation of this issue. Is it an oversight or is it intended?

I have an iPhone 4 and iPad 2 that use with the Apple Composite AV cable for TV out on an older (but nice B&O) TV - I use this every week.

I would like to have it confirmed if it is intentional that this functionality is no longer supported with iOS7 or if it is just something that will soon be fixed.

It is no problem on my iPad mini / iPhone 5 as there is no analog TV out option for these devices. But it is a shame that I then have iOS7 on lightning connector devices and I am forced to use iOS6 or older on the 30-pin connector devices if I want to use the functionality I have paid for earlier. Would be nice to have OS commonality across all my devices, now when there is larger differences between pre-iOS7 and iOS7.

Best regards,

Kristian

Also there is no way to revert from having done the update to iOS7 so basically my Apple Composite AV cable(s)(that I have bought not long ago) are suddenly not usable with my otherwise compatible 30pin devices. The Apple AV cables were not free, they actually cost quite a bit..

Just tried mine today. iPhone 4S with Composite out to my in dash car monitor.

Spent alot of money to get this to work.

Composite cable alone was $50.00.

Come on Apple, you should let us know what we lose with updates, not just what we gain.

I did notice the Music Videos/Movies will output via composite when i use the Video app.

However, i have always made my own playlist for music videos to shuffle.

Video App does not allow shuffling.

This feature is gone.

Videos play on phone screen, but not outut through the composite like they used too...

just tested with iphone4 and ipad2 and component cable and it's the same deal

It would be great if we could get some official reply to this issue?

Looks like Samsung will be getting my phone and tablet business soon if this crap doesn't get fixed.....

I'm also not able to get my composite cables to work after updating to ios7. If you go to Apple.com, you can still purchase the cables. Apple needs to pull this product from their website or fix the problem.

This has had a big impact - I use Netflix and Airvideo through TV for much of my viewing - Apple need to officially respond to this, especially as they are still selling the cable.

Yes same here, I have the ipad 2 with av composite, just not working after ios 7 update. I wish google would hurry up and have a UK release for chromecast!

I am in the same boat! Help us or let me know that it won't work please!!!!

Same I actually ask the apple rep specifically if it'd work, yes he said, total B. S.

Getting Your Old Netflix4.3 App with all it’s features such as Apple Composite AV out, for older TV’s Back on Your iOS Device
