Adapter and/or converter

for all apple products that have that big white block (used to charge the product), i know its an adapter, but is it a converter? i read somewhere that someone went to a different country and tried to charge their computer and burned out their logic board. so, is it a converter?

All of the AC adapters that come with Apple portable computers are "world ready". All you need is a simple plug adapter. No "power converter" is needed. I have successfully used my 12" PowerBook, with the same kind of AC Adapter that comes with the iBooks, in England, Germany and China with only a plug adapter.
If you have an Apple desktop machine, it depends, but most of them can switch voltages.

Plug in adapter and or converter for iphone 4 work in Italy

I have an iPhone 4 and am travelling to Italy. Will it work with a plug adapter or do I need a voltage converter as wel

Just the plug adapter.

I just moved to Germany, I want to know if an adapter and converter is needed to charge my iPod, iPhone and MacBook Air is needed or can I simply use an adapter? Will the voltage automatically change?

I am having a really hard time with keeping my charger on the adapter/converter that I bought for my trip but I also bought an adapter and with that my charger doen't fall and my apple products would be able to charge withought me having to hold the charger in place. I want to know if the converter is needed or if I only need the adapter. I do not want to blowout my iPhone, iPod or my MacBook Air.

All that is requried is an inexpensive plug adapter. Apple's power adapters themselves will work with any utility power on Earth. Non-Apple power adapters may not.
I don't understand what you mean by having to hold the charger in place though.

IPhone 5 , Converter / HDMI/AV / AV/AV Component / RCA Adapter and Cable to connect to HD TV

I have the iPhone 5. I have the 8 pin to 30 pin converter adapter. I have a 30 pin HDMI/AV adapter. I also have the 30 pin AV/AV Component Cable (with RCA plugs). Can I connect my iphone 5 to my HD TV with these cords? If so, please explain how because I have tried my best to figure it out. I can get my husband's iphone 4 to connect and show on the TV but can not get my iphone 5 to.

Yes, cable works fine alone with it. I thought it might be something to do with the iphone power adapter and tried using the higher powered ipad adapter, but had the same results.

Can I use a mini display port to VGA adapter and then a VGA to av adapter to connect my MacBook pro to my standard definition tv?

No. You need a converter box like this to go with your MDP-VGA adapter:

If you are traveling in Europe, do you need both an adapter AND a voltage regulator to charge the IPad2 and the iphone? Or, the reverse, will it hurt either if I use both the adapter AND the voltage convertor?

If you are traveling in Europe, do you need both an adapter AND a voltage convertoro charge the IPad2 and the iphone? Or, the reverse, will it hurt either if I use both the adapter AND the voltage convertor?

You may only need adapters for the different kind of sockets, depending of the country you want to travel. A voltage converter is not needed.
The Apple power units are multi voltage devices, supporting a range from 110 V to 240 V. as you can see on the labels. O.K. for most of the labels you need a magnifier, but its on them.

Adapter Module to convert text message to XML

Hello Experts,
I am writing a custom adapter module to convert the text content to XML message at the sender adapter end.
I have followed the steps mentioned in the "HowToCreateModulesforJ2EEAdapterEngine" guide available on SDN.
I have created the java logic in the process mesthod of the bean to conver the text message to XML paylod (don't know if it is correct). I do not have much idea about the Adpater API methods.
Can anybody help me with the logic to convert the text msg to xml paylod using adapter frame work APIs or is there any way I can debug and test my logic in NWDS.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
- Rajan

Hi ,
To convert Text message to XML why yiu want to go for Adapter Module?? Using file content conversion it self you can do it right?????
There is no standard logic to convert text file to XML, the logic purely depends on your text message format.

Raj

Difference In RFC Adapter and XI proxy

I am using RFC adapter for master data and XI proxy for transaction data , can anyone tell me what is major difference and what is negative point in using RFC adapter
Thanking you
sridhar

Hi,
Adapters enable the Integration Engine and the Partner Connectivity Kit (PCK) to communicate with different applications.Adapters connect the Integration Engine to SAP legacy systems, as well as to external systems.
In this way, adapters integrate existing SAP components with SAP Exchange Infrastructure, for example. In the process, XML and HTTP-based documents are converted to IDocs (IDoc adapter) and RFCs (RFC adapter) and the other way around. This enables you to integrate your existing SAP infrastructure with the new SAP infrastructure, which is based on system integration and the exchange of XML messages.
The plain HTTP adapter gives application systems the option of communicating with the Integration Engine and exchanging business data in a simple format, using an HTTP connection.
RFC Adapter :
The RFC adapter enables you to use the functions of the Integration Engine or the PCK in existing SAP landscapes. It is used by SAP systems to connect to the Integration Engine or the PCK by using the RFC interface. It supports SAP systems as of version 3.1x.
For FAQs about the RFC adapter, see SAP Note 730870
The RFC adapter is provided by the Adapter Engine and the PCK. It essentially comprises two parts, namely a sender adapter at the Integration Engine inbound channel, and a receiver adapter at the Integration Engine outbound channel.
The adapters are configured in the configuration part of the Integration Builder, or in the configuration part of the PCK. You use the SAP Java Connector (JCo), which enables you to manage metadata. This in turn enables you to map RFC data generically to RFC XML and the other way around.
The receiver RFC adapter can be used for mapping lookups.A communication channel with a receiver RFC adapter can be created automatically for business systems that are defined in the System Landscape Directory.
The RFC adapter maps the following RFC calls to XML messages and the other way around:
Synchronous RFC calls (sRFCs) in messages with quality of service Best Effort (BE)
●     Transactional RFC calls (tRFCs) in messages with quality of service Exactly Once (EO)
●     The receiver RFC adapter can also process messages with quality of service Exactly Once In Order (EOIO). They are mapped to transactional RFC calls (tRFC).
You require the sender adapter if you want to use the Integration Engine or the PCK to process RFCs. The RFC adapter converts the incoming RFC data to XML message format (RFC XML) so that it can be processed by the Integration Engine or the PCK.
You require the receiver adapter if the determined receiver system expects the data from the Integration Engine or the PCK to arrive in RFC format. In this case, the Integration Engine or the PCK must transfer the received XML message (RFC XML) to the RFC adapter. The RFC adapter converts the RFC XML message to a valid RFC call and executes the call.
Proxy :
Generally speaking, interfaces are where functions in a system can be executed. In the context of SAP Exchange Infrastructure, only the following interfaces are relevant:
·        Interfaces designed for message exchange between application systems
·        Interfaces used by a cross-component integration process to receive or send messages, or both
Starting with a cross-system integration process, you can then derive the corresponding interfaces required. SAP Exchange Infrastructure supports this process by using an integration scenario to describe the collaborative process. The integration scenario summarizes the interfaces required for this collaborative process.
You can use SAP interfaces that already exist in systems, non-SAP interfaces that are connected to SAP Exchange Infrastructure using adapters, or define new interfaces called message interfaces in the Integration Repository. Both worlds can also be interconnected in a collaborative process.
Interfaces are an essential component of SAP Exchange Infrastructure:
·        You define the interfaces to be used in an integration scenario.
·        Cross-component integration processes use interfaces to exchange messages.
·        You define the XML transformations for messages that are to be exchanged between two interfaces in a mapping.
·        You assign an interface in a sender system to one or more interfaces in a receiver system in logical routing.
·        You generate proxies to implement your scenario based on message interfaces.
You save interface descriptions (message interfaces, BAPIs, RFCs, and IDocs) in the Integration Repository so that they can be referenced throughout SAP Exchange Infrastructure. However, adapters for external systems do not normally use interfaces; instead they access files or database tables in order to function, for example. For this reason, it is not necessary to import these interfaces into the Integration Repository. If the structure of the message is described using a WSDL, XSD, or DTD schema, you can import the schema as an external definition.
Hope this will help you.

Regarding the xif adapter and ascii adapter

Dear experts
I have a requirement where i have to connect the crm system to non sap systems using the xif adapter and ascii adapter could you tell me what are the configurations steps to be followed for this.
Thanks & Regards
Rao

1) Don't use the ASCII adapter
2) Use the LSMW with the XIF adapter instead
As the previous posters said, it depends on what you want to convert, which will determine how to use this. A quick example of the XIF adapter with the LSMW is located in my blog here:
/people/stephen.johannes/blog/2005/08/18/external-data-loads-for-crm-40-using-xif-adapter
Plus do a search on this forum for more information on using the XIF adapter.
Take care,
Stephen

I have an older Hitachi widescreen 1080p TV that has a DVI input, no HDMI input. Is there an adapter and if so will it still work?

I have an older Hitachi widescreen 1080p TV that has a DVI input, no HDMI input. Is there an adapter and if so will it still work?

As HDMI is the only supported method there will no guarantee with any converter.
DVI doesn't tranfer audio so you would have to either go through optical to connect speakers, or use a DAC in connection with analogue speakers.
Also, unless the TV is HDCP compliant you will be unable to play protected content (ie iTunes, Netflix)

Difference between RFC adapter and a proxy

Can any one tell me the technical difference between RFC adapter and a proxy?
reg

There are advantages / disadvantages for RFC / Proxies / Idocs. So if I am in your position depending upon the requirement I will choose one. Some of the differences are:
RFC and Proxy:
RFC/BAPI has its own overhead of function call.
Proxies communicate with the XI server by means of native SOAP calls over HTTP .RFC does not, so you have to convert from SOAP to RFC calls and vice versa. So XML conversion is required.
ABAP Proxies uses Webservice and Http Protocols.
If you use ABAP Proxy , you can reduce the overhead calling the function again and again.
Proxy and Idoc:
IDOC : After recieving the strucutred data It processes it using a Function Module associated with it.
Proxy : Proxy is a structure where there is no processing function module associated. You need to explicitly write the Business Logic/Call the subroutines here
This is my absolutely my view. Another guy has his own response. So first go through your requirements and then you can decide for what to go.
Also go through this urls which may help you:

Thanks for the reply, Noel.
But strange, I never thought of using ACR to do the DNG conversion, so I tried it. Updated ACR to the curent 6.5 version first. My timing results were the same as using the DNG converter.
Again, a random batch of 40 raw files read from a compact flash card on a USB 3.0 card reader. A total of about 388mb. The DNG converter does the batch in 47 seconds, and ACR does it in 48 seconds. Identical times given the degree of error in my punching a stop watch.
If I copy the raw files to hard disk first and then use either ACR or the DNG converter to convert (HDD to HDD) I get the same 47-48 seconds.
So I'm curious why my ACR times are the same as DNG converter while you say ACR is twice as fast on your system. For what it's worth, my system is Windows 7, 8GB memory, on an intel I5 quad core processor.
The DNG files created by ACR are all about 50 to 55kb larger than the DNG files created by the DNG converter. But I noticed looking at the metadata in Bridge than the DNG files created by ACR have Camera Raw data in the EXIF, while the same files created by the DNG converter do not. I imagine that explains the few extra bytes. But loading the two files into Photoshop and doing a "difference" blend mode proves they are identical.
In any case, I've learned that USB 3.0 gives no advantage over USB 2.0 in this application.

Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter and Mac mini (2009)

Can anyone tell me whether the Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter listed here:
http://store.apple.com/ca/product/M9319G/A
works with the latest Mac mini (early 2009)?
If it does not what other solutions are there to connect to composite, component or s-video?

KC from Ann Arbor, MI had this to say as a review on the page to which you have linked;
10-May-2009
I bought a Mac Mini (May 2009) and this Mini-DVI to Video adapter with plans to use it to send an S-video signal to an analog TV. Though the sales staff at the Apple store said it should work, it does not. The graphics card apparently should support it, and it may be addressed with a future driver update, but as of now this does not work. I have used a mini-DVI to VGA adapter and monitor to verify that the port is working, and also verified that the S-video cable and TV input work. There are third party VGA to S-video/RCA adapters available so I plan to use one of those for my purposes. This is probably a 5-star product when used with the right Mac; however, Apple should have made it clear that having a mini-DVI port on your Mac is necessary but not sufficient for this to work - hence the 3 stars.

You can only add songs to your iOS device from iTunes via Wi-Fi sync or via your cable, not Bluetooth.

That's an entirely different issue, unrelated to your iOS devices.

Yeah, I'm having the same exact problem - It seems that the thunderbolt minidisplay port is only able to output the analog VGA signal, not the digital signal to support DVI and HDMI. This is a bug that came up after installing 10.7.1. I bought my macbook air with 10.7 on it, upgraded it to 10.7.1 as soon as I got it, so I have never been able to use hdmi or dvi with my macbook air. This is an extremely frustrating problem for me, I used HDMI on a daily basis with my PC. I have spent many hours at the genius bar running diagnostic tests so Apple can get as much information as possible to create a fix for this problem. I have been emailing tech support for 3 or so weeks now, they keep saying that they are working on a fix and it should be out soon, but 10.7.2 has come and gone and I still have no HDMI functionality with my MacBook Air!
