I got the camera kit and plug in my Samsung pl55 camera. The iPad eventually says this accessory is not supported by iPad. a matte camera asks me if ! want to connect the USB to a computer or a printer. I select computer but by then it's too late and everything just sits and nothing happens.
iPad, iOS 5.1.1
Are you using Apple's iPad Camera Connection Kit?
Have you plugged your Samsung PL55 into the kit as shown here:
Are you trying to send JPEG images from the camera to the iPad?
Your post has a portion that starts with " a matte". I don't understand it. Perhaps the beginning of the sentence got omitted.
Sorry for the misspell. Should have said "and then the camera asks ...".
YEs this is how I have it connected. It seems to want to connect to a computer as opposed to just initiating the software that displays the pictures. Yes they are jpeg images. Could it be that's it's a first gen iPad?
The Apple Camera Connection Kit purports to work with an original iPad.

The instructions on the above page indicate you plug the kit to the iPad first, then attach the USB cable and then the camera. If that fails, you might try the SD card reader if your camera has an SD card that fits into the reader.
Why- I try to connect my Samsung PL 55 camera to my iPad 1 using the camera kit it tells me this accessory is not supported by iPad. I have tried restarting etc but nothing works
