    Screen casting from Ipad to a non-smart TV

    As promised: quick update. I had a browse through the iPad/Firestick range of apps out there, including the two thoughtfully mentioned by J.A. What seemed to come through quite clearly in the various customer reviews of the various apps was how unreliable they were. ither that, or their...

    Screen casting from Ipad to a non-smart TV

    Sincere thanks to Dave and to J.A. My wife's iPad was purchased new in 2017; mine is a 10inch iPad Pro, of 2018. I'm not sure of the model numbers. They're both running the latest recently updated iOS version. Back in days (almost) beyond recall, I remember when we each had an Asus Transformer...

    Screen casting from Ipad to a non-smart TV

    My own fault. . . moving to Apple

    Sincere thanks, scifan57 for that immediate (and much appreciated) help. I take it from your comment that downloading via the Books app is the only possible route to go here; that downloading the guide as a standard pdf to my desktop PC isn't feasible. Quite why Apple itself couldn't have said...

    My own fault. . . moving to Apple

    I really shouldn't be grumbling. Enough folks had already told me to stay away from the weird world of Apple and itspreciously incompetent devices, to stick instead with Android which at least provides clarity of operation and intent. However, I've grown weary of my appalling Samsung Tab A 10.5...
