Default New Dock.... flakey right side buttons

Just took delivery of a new Dock and low and behold, the lights on the right side buttons, flicker and disappear making their stars unknown.. Grrr.

Not a great start. Also, how do you get the lightning connector into the iPad? I've got a 2017 iPad that justifies, but the older one definitely does not fit...
Who is the genius that cam up with that design??

Not happy!!

Sorry about that, it sounds like a lose board. I haven't heard of that issue before though.

Can you post the exact model of the iPad that doesn't fit so well...maybe a picture ?

Hi Eddie,
Yes loose board is what I thought too.
The model iPad that doesn't fit is Model A1458 (It's lightning port equipped).

Great thanks. I know this wont look nice but have you tried the adapter so it leans forward a bit and the wire can pass over the front between the knobs? I know this doesn't help but it does list the supported iPads under the specifications http://www.avid.com/products/pro-too...specifications

I have thanks Eddie. Unfortunately it's getting too high and hindering my of a monitor when the adapter is used.
I have ordered a 90 degree lightning adapter, so will see how that goes. In the meantime, I'm using my 2017 iPad (it's just that I have that one normally setup for a bunch of other things.
Cheers,
Matt
