Can I use the 85 watt charger on the 13" unibody aluminum MBP?

Can I use the 85 watt charger on the 13" unibody aluminum MBP instead of the 60 watt that came with it??
Is it safe to use any of the 3rd party chargers instead of the $79 Apple model?? Some of these are 1/2 the price or less

"Some of these are 1/2 the price or less..."
How much is your computer worth: $40, $50? The counterfeit power adapters that I've seen are improperly grounded - is that OK for your computer or you personally? The real power adapters meet are necessary international safety and agency compliance standards - do the counterfeit products meet the same threshold. The real power adapters have over-current, over-voltage, and over-temperature protection...do the counterfeit products have these features.
Is your personal safety and your computer worth more than $40 or $50?

  • Can I use higher watt charger for my ipad?

    My ipad came with 10w charger. the ipad takes 4 hours for 100% charge. Can I use higher watt charger to charge my ipad. Will it void the warranty?
    and I can i use my ipad while charging?

    Hi Gyanam,
    A higher watt charger will not charge your iPad any faster, but it will also not harm it in any way. So, yes, you can use a higher watt charger. And yes, you can use your device while it is charging.
    Cheers,

  • Can I use my iPhone charger for the ipad

    Is it okay to charge my ipad with my iphone 4 charger?

    You may be having problems with your battery. However, they were not caused by using your iPad charger. The iPad charger is compatible with the iPhone and can safely be used with it. If your phone is less than a year old, you may want to take it to your nearest Apple Store and have them take a look at it. If the battery is not functioning correctly, they will replace it for you.

    Except for the connector...
    What is special about the connector for the 4s charger cable? Mine is a normal USB connector. The question was about the wall charger, not the connector to the phone.

    what can I use my Droid Charge for, after I upgrade to the new Samsung Galaxy S2 for Verizon on September 8?
    I guess it can run fine on Wi-Fi and become a media player.... or is there a market for 1-month-old Droid Charge phones?
    How much trade-in value can I get from VZW or BestBuy or Amazon?
    Thanks!

    Yes, you can. The iPhone 4S and 6th generation iPod nano use the same 30-pin charger, unlike the new Lightning charger used by the iPhone 5 and 7th generation iPod nano.

    Help! I have just broken my iPad charger, can I use my iPhone charger instead? What's the difference?

    As far as I know there is no difference, we use the same charger for iphone, ipad, ipod, etc.. and no problem.

    There is a statement from Apple that confirms this : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4327

  • My ipod touch 4 generation wont charger or connect to my computer but it will charge using a wall charger. The battery was dead so I plugged it in to the Computer and it charged it enough to come on and now that it is on, it wont charger or register.

    My ipod touch 4 generation wont charger or connect to my computer but it will charge using a wall charger. The battery was dead so I plugged it in to the Computer and it charged it enough to come on and now that it is on, it wont charger or register. My sister has the same ipod as me and has no problems charging hers on our computer. Please Help me!!

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How can i use my apple ID with the itune store over my windows laptop

    how can i use my apple ID with the itune store over my windows laptop

    If you don't have iTunes installed on your laptop then you can download and install it from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    You can then log into your account on it via the Store > Sign In menu option (on iTunes 11 on a PC you can get the menus to show via control-B) :
    And you can then select the Store on the left-hand sidebar (you can enable the sidebar via control-S), and then browse items in the store and buy them by clickin on their price.

    Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

    Winston, what sort of set up do you have for 10 apple tvs? - I currently have 2 and cannot stream different movies successfully at the same time to both of them from a single macbook pro. I am looking at upgrading to a system with a macbook mini or server streaming different content to 3-5 apple tvs. Currently all streaming is on the same channel and via 2 airport extremes and a new express. Still finding the system very very slow.

  • Can I use 2 Time Capsules on the same network

    Can I use 2 Time Capsules on the same network
    Posted: Jul 23, 2009 1:49 PM Reply Email
    Here is what I want to do. I currently have a time capsule used for one end of the house. Currently my 2 kids rooms are in an addition that I have run a cable from the time capsule to each of their rooms. If I want to give them wireless for that part of the house could I add another TC, for wireless and they can both backup their macbooks to that time capsule.
    So Can I add a 2nd time capsule to extend by "N" network, or should I just go with an AP express or extreme and let them each have their own HD backup for each macbook?

    Have bought many reconditioned (Refurb) product from Apple site and have always been happy with them. To date none have failed me and we have been Apple customers since 2006. With that said when you buy Refurbs make sure you know what model you are getting. The current TCs on the Apple site are last generation. The way to tell is to check the model number against the current one. Easy way to do this is to put both in the shopping cart and compare the model numbers. The Refurb model number is FB277LL/A and the new TC model is MB765LL/A. The first digits identify whether a Refurb or new, the rest should be the same if they are the same model number.
    Before you buy, now which model number you want and then check other sites to compare prices. I recently purchased a new TC on Amazon for a better price then the Apple Store Site. For larger Refurb purchases like MBPs, we choose to buy directly from Apple; but for peripherals we often buy from OWC, Amazon, and other sites. Hope this helps.
