Charging iPad using USB port

I will be traveling to Italy.  Does anyone know if you can charge the iPad using the USB port in a power surge protector, without harming the iPad?

What would be coming out of the "USB" port in the power surge protector.

  • Charge Iphone using usb port vs wall plug charger

    I always charge my Iphone 5 to usb port on Macbook pro and leave it 5-6 hour after fully charge. Is there any side effect if I charge my Iphone using usb port instead of wall plug charger. Is it iphone will cut off charging after fully charge?

    The iPhone knows when it is charged and will stop charging. No need to worry.

  • Charging phone using USB ports while in sleep

    Hey guys!
    I recently updated my macbook pro mid 2011 to the new operating system: MAVERICKS
    I used to do this little handy thing, where i used my mac as a powerbank for my phone once it was empty. I would insert a micro usb cable in one of the usb ports, and it would be active and thus charge my phone....
    It worked before, but in mavericks it's gone!
    Now it seems like in mavericks the usb-ports aren't powered during sleepmode anymore... how do i change this back?
    Thanks in advance!

    I run Mavericks, my USB ports charge my iPad and / or iPhone while asleep. The behaviour has not changed.

  • My Iphone 3gS is not being recognized in Itunes on my laptop. It is charging so the USB port is working properly. My wifes Iphone IS being recognized by the same laptop. My Iphone IS being recognized by the desktop computer and another laptop

    My Iphone is not being recognized in Itunes on my laptop. It is charging, so the USB port is working. My Iphone does work on another Laptop in the house and My wifes Iphone is being recognized on the same laptop that mine is not. Any suggestions?

    The key bit of information here is that one iPhone works on the computer in question and another does not. So it is unlikely that AMDS is not running or there is a driver problem; if either of these was the problem neither phone would be recognized in iTunes.
    Unfortunately, I don't have an answer either. Except to verify that both iPhones (the one that works and the one that doesn't) use the same cable and the same USB port.
    Also, are the two iPhones the same model and same iOS version?

  • Apple store says ipod mini not working b/c not using usb port 2.0 - true?

    My ipod mini (a year old) is frozen/can't be charged. Apple store guy said because I've been using usb port 1.1 and that it is supposed to be used with usb port 2.0. Tells me won't send in for replacement (out of warranty anyway) unless I first update my computer with USB 2.0 card. Is this true?

    It's better to use 2.0 because it's faster.
    Try resetting it, hold the center [select] button and the menu button until the Apple logo appears. or let the battery die, and then plug it in.

  • Can a MacBook be charged through its USB port?

    Can a MacBook be charged through its USB port?

    You certainly cannot charge the MacBook battery that way, but you could indeed charge the whole computer—to the point it gets totally fried.  You may even see sparks and smoke.  

  • Can i use an old car charger with a usb port to charge my iPhone 5s?

    Can I use an old car charger for a not smart phone to charge my iPhone 5s through the usb port?

    Usually you can!
    check if the specification of charger (USB output) is 5V (very important) and at least 500mA (more power like 1000mA --> 1A allow you to charge greater devices like iPad)
    But personally is not good idea, because in short/long time can damage or reduce the life of battery of your iPhone/iPad etc.
    Bye

  • Using USB port to charge Pearl

    I can't find the original post I wanted to comment on so I am just sharing this as a new post.  Belkin and several other companies make USB hubs that have AC (110 V) adapters that power them.  If you use one of these you will never have the underperformance issues with the 3 volts your PC's USB ports seem to be able to muster.  I had problems powering up multiple USB drives and my two phones at the same time before I adopted this fix.  Don't have a take on the laptop / phone charger scenario.

    The AT300se is really recongnized by the laptop (same when using USB 2.0 or 3.0 port).
    I dont have any SDHC or SDXC card on the tablet.
    i see a difference with my mobile phone when it s connected i have a new window which appear withe a new letter drive for it.
    Nothing happens with the tablet but when i open the explorer on the laptop i see the disk of the AT300 and a new lines appear with removable peripheral .
    Thanks for your help

  • How do I traspass my photos from my mac pro computer to a new ipad without usb port?, how do I traspass my photos from my mac pro computer to a new ipad without usb port?

    I have a Macpro computer and I want to know how to traspass photos or files to a new ipad model since it has no USB port.
    Thans for your help!

    You can transfer photos or documents to your iPad using iTunes. Connect your iPad to your computer using the cable that came with your iPad and sync it with your computer to copy your photos to it.
    With documents, you can use iCloud if you have Pages in your iPad. Go to iCloud > iWork and drag your documents in that page

  • Why does N97 charge from some USB port and some no...

    OK some seem to have same sort of troubles but I couldn't find an answer to this one...
    So I have a N97 that charges OK when I plug it in computers USB port or in a (powered) hub.
    But I also have a USB power adapter that I can plug in a wall socket and it has one USB port (5V/1A) and nothing happens.
    Same happens when I plug it in my car using a USB adapter (not a actual car charger for N97).
    Since every other phone/MP3-player/device that can be charged via USB works with these, I have to asume that this is something with my phone...
    Has anyone else faced this and have found any solutions?

    OK I have some additional info to this one.
    I made some experiments with different chargers and cabels and here is the most interesting result (in my oppinion)...
    In both cases I used my N97 and the USB power adapter (with 5V/1000mA output).
    Only difference was how I connected the two...
    By using the data cabel (Nokia CA-101) that came with the phone and nothing it DOES NOT charge the phone.
     (and yes it is working cable, since I use it to sync my phone with my PC and it does charge the phone via PCs USB).
    By using USB->2mm plug adapter (Nokia CA-100) and the 2mm plug->micro-USB adapter (CA-146C) it DOES charge the phone.
    Since CA-100 converts USB to more simple connector then there must be something more happening inside CA-146C than just relaying those wires forward...
    Any ideas???

  • Is there a way to charge ipad using laptop

    cuz when i make restore it charge finish

    Not likely. Computer USB ports usually don't put out enough power to correctly charge an iPad.  LEss so Laptop ports which are designed to save battery.
    What's wrong with plugging it in to the wall?

  • Cannot charge with frontside USB Ports on Dyndock-U with computer off

    So I have read through the manual and have followed all directions.  Everything else works fine, however, when I undock it or when the computer is turned off, my mp3 player stops charging.  The light on the dynadock doesn't turn off, but goes yellow.  I have tried manually undocking it (pressing the top button) and I have tried doing it in the utility bar, and I have tried just unplugging the computer--but nothing works.  It still stops charging.  Even when I changed frontside usb ports, it still stops charging. 
      I would appreciate any insight anyone might have on this matter.
      Thank you for your time.

    I am having the same problem.  Have gone through all the permutations with the top button, setting charge mode, etc. without success.  One of the main reasons I purchased the Dynadock U was to use the powered USB ports to charge devices such as an iPhone overnight even when the laptop was off.  The Dynadock manual states that "Not all devices can be charged through these ports."  Looking for a solution or guidance from Toshiba or anyone that knows whether or not an iPhone can be charged through these ports, and if so, how.  Thanks in advance for any assistance.

  • Is there a way to record tv onto iPad using USB.

    Just wondering If there was a way to record my tv's images to my IPad by using the USB port on the tv. An app or something of the like...
    Thanks.

    No. You can only import photo and video files using the camera connection kit.

  • USB Charger or Computer USB Port?

    I have a new iPod touch for a friend and an Energizer USB Charger adapter
    (PRI 100-240 50/60 Hz 150 mA SEC 5.0V 500mA). The Apple USB Charger output 5.0V at 1000mA.
    Is it safe to use the Energizer USB charger? and if in doubt,
    is it always safer to plug the ipod or the iphone in the USB port of a computer?
    Regards

    Alfonso-
    Yes to both. I prefer the USB on a computer, but have see no issue with the Energizer, provided it is for the iPod in question.
