         I bought a USB power adapter for my ipod nano so i can take it camping and use an outlet. Will this take less time for charging or the same amount as the computer?

Hi, Atcandela.
I've a Macally external fire/usb enclosure that powers up and mounts directly on to my PB Aluminum 1.67 laptop but the USB portion doesn't draw power.
Do you mean it mounts and works OK when connected via FireWire, but not when connected via USB? If so, that's unsurprising. I would be surprised to hear that it doesn't mount when you use the FireWire connnection, because most drives are able to get enough power from that port.
Does MacAlly not offer a cable for your drive that allows it to draw power from both your USB ports? Some manufacturers of external drives or enclosures do offer such a cable, and it's well worth buying because it's much smaller and more portable than an AC adapter. Have a look at this one from Western Digital — it might fill the bill for you.

  • I just got a new used iPod nano 6th gen and I registered it, but it will not sync. I had an exsisting iPod nano that I no longer have, but I do have itunes on my computer. When I try and sync it, it flashes 'syncing' then stops. Help please!

    I have looked all over itunes for help, please help me figure this out. I just want to sync the music from my itunes accout from my old iPod onto my new one that I got off of ebay. I have registered it but it will still not work. Is there anything I can do? Should I call Apple? Can I reregister it? Is there some other way for me to connect it to my account? Please help me:(

  • I did a factory reset on my late 2008 MacBook from a Snow Leopard disc. It installed fine, but as soon as I began to use the computer (safari) it froze. Couldn't even force quit. So I held down the power button to turn it off, and now it won't start up.

    I did a factory reset on my late 2008 MacBook from a Snow Leopard disc. It installed fine, but as soon as I began to use the computer (safari) it froze. Couldn't even force quit. So I held down the power button to turn it off, and now it won't start up. It goes to the grey Apple screen and just sits there loud as can be. Help! Please keep in mind I've not done anything like this before and am going to need a little hand-holding. Thanks in advance.

    Hi. Don't worry it's nothing serious. Insert the Instal Disc (Snow Leopard) and press the C button while turning on the computer. Once you see the desktop, go to Utility and choose Disk Utility. Select the Macintosh Partition on the left window pane and then click on Repair Disk and Repair Disk Permissions on the bottom right corner. Wait for both processes to finish. Click on the Apple icon (top left corner) and choose quit. Your computer should restart. See if it reboots normally. If not you can always reinstall the OS following the same steps. Good luck!

  • Use Ti Power Adapter for 17" in an Emergency?

    Can I use an old Ti Power Adapter for a 17" G4 Powerbook to run from A.C. outlet? I don't care if it charges the battery. Would it damage the 17"? Should I take the battery out and just run it via A.C. using the Ti?

    If the plug fits it should be fine but just check the wattage, my wife and I use each others adapters, she has a G4 iBook and we run a Powerbook and a G3 iBook from the same adapter.
    Hopefully this is helpful or solved your problem. Consider rewarding some points!

  • What's the power Adapter for Macbook pro 13inch Mid 2012

    What's the power Adapter for Macbook pro 13inch Mid 2012 with core i-7, 2.9ghz, 8Gb ram?
    AFAIK it should be a 60wat Megasafe power adapter.
    But mine shipped with a 45Watt Megasafe. I got it as a Gift from my friend.
    Thanks in Advance.

    This should be my Adapter right?
    Yes.
    There is a drawback in addition to taking a longer time to charge up your MBP.  In unusual instances when using your MBP with power adapter attached, and running a very heavy load on the CPU/GPU, the MBP will require additional electrical resources in addition to what the power adapter can provide.  It will then draw upon the battery.  What this means is that using a 45 watt adapter, these conditions are more likely to occur.
    Using a 45 watt adapter should not harm your MBP as such.
    Ciao.

  • Is this the right power adapter for an 11" MBA?

    My wife has an 11" MBA with model number A1370. The battery is dead so I can't check the exact model identifier. The thin cable on the power adapter has worn out where it enters the brick (which is incredible since she never ever wraps the cable around the brick) so she needs a new adapter.
    This Dutch Apple Store page has three that look similar to hers, which has the L-shaped magsafe. Am I right in believing that the 45W version will fit all A1370 models?
    Many TIA

    Hi frogjt,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    Great question! You can absolutely do this in OS X 10.9. The attached article explains how the process of using AirPlay with Apple TV to create a second display. Also, towards the bottom of the article there are instructions on how to set your Displays preferences on the computer to make sure the TV and MacBook Pro displays are set up the way you want them to be.
