iMic with iSDR on iPad4

Bought a KX3 in June

Trying to use the iSDR app on an iPad 4 to get portable panadapter
functionality.

Bought a Lighting to USB Camera adapter (Apple Brand) at Best Buy

Bought a Griffin iMic on Amazon because I couldn't find it at Best Buy or
Frys.

Plugged in to iPad 4. After a few second get a message stating "This
accessory is not supported by this iPad"

Tried a flash drive with the USB adapter and got same message. Don't have
any other "Apple" accessories.

Tested the iMic on a Windows computer and it is functional.
Is this combo working for anybody reading this list? Are there other
components that will work?

Is there a way to search the archives?

Re: iMic with iSDR on iPad4

I have the KX3, iMic, USB lightning adaptor, and iPad Air. They all work
together fine. I have used the iMic and adaptors starting with the original
iPad, iPad2, iPad3, and now Air, it has worked on all of them. I have been
using them for a few years now, including with the old 30-pin adaptors. I
used them this last weekend during some software testing.

Maybe your lightning USB adaptor or iMic is bad? Do you have someone
locally to test with?

We've also been working with Digital Confections to allow tuning the KX3 via
the iPad with the Piglet/Pigtail devices.

Re: iMic with iSDR on iPad4

I get the same message on my iPad 2 but it will still work - I just ignore
the message. I get the same sort of thing with an eBay power adapter on my
iPhone5, I just ignore it and the phone charges normally. In my experience
it's just Apple whinging about not buying their bit of kit! YMMV of
course...

Re: iMic with iSDR on iPad4

Thank you for the replies and encouragement Terry, Bill and Stephen.

I had plugged in the iMic while away from the radio and got the not
supported messages while not plugged into the radio.

Tonight, I did a full power off of the iPad with the iMic unplugged,
powered it on, plugged in the iMic with the radio connected and then
started the iSDR app.

Lo and behold it worked! Not even a not supported message!

Thanks again!
