Can I use Goal Zero Nomad 7 solar charger  to charge I Phone5?

Can I use Goal Zero Nomad 7 solar charger  to charge I Phone5? When I hooked it up to the Goal Zero charger I got the normal "charging" chirp sound from the phone but when I checked on the charging progress about 30 minutes later the I Phone 5   had a warning message saying "Charging is not supported with this accessory" with a black exclamation mark in a yelllow triangle. Am I doing harm to my IPhone 5 to use the Goal Zero charger? The GZ website makes a big deal of how this charger can charge an IPhone5 and makes not mention of incompatibilty. But the replies  on GZ's youtube video include numerous mentions of this problem. GZ responds that the user should contact [email protected] at GZ for help. I wrote that person just now. Let's see what they say.

The iPhone 5 requires 5 volts x 5 watts and 1 amp, the goal zero nomad 7 puts out only 2.5 watts x 5 volts and 0.5 amps.. This is where your problem lies, not enough juice for the iphone.
I would recommend the Suntactics sCharger-5 (the charger I have) which puts out 5 volts x 5 watts and 1 amp, which is exactly the same amount of juice the iphone requires.

    It is quite safe to use the higher powered iPad charger for other devices, as they will only use the amount of power required for charging, eventhough higher power is available. The Apple store shows all devices that can be safely charged with the iPad charger, see the link below.

  • Can I use my new IPad while it is charging

    Can I use my New IPad while it is charging?

    You can use the iPad while it's charging, however, it will take longer to fully charge.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    Hi Smart71,
    I know it sounds complicated, but it really isn't.
    You need to select the option to manually edit the disk label
    when you install solaris.
    Your problem is that you have assigned 73 GB for your / (root)
    and 63 GB for your swap. That's not the problem that I see. The problem is that the Solaris partition (and therefore the Solaris VTOC label inside) is only for 136GB. But the actual underlying storage is 409GB. So the entire partition and the VTOC have to be rewritten.
    You only have 2 options. Either re-install Solaris, of re-partition the disk.
    If you don't have a spare disk to copy root to and you want to use
    the whole disk, with just one / root partition, you will need to shrink /swap
    create another slice to copy root to temporarily, and then re-partition your disk. Agreed reinstalling is easiest. But moving slices around will not let you change the VTOC size.
    eg:
    boot from CD into single user mode.
    partition the disk so that eg:
    swap is 3 GB. eg: ( from cylinder 1 to cylinder 400 )
    partition 3 is 7 GB ( from cylinder 401 to cylinder 1318 )
    ( if 7 GB is enough to hold all your / data )
    write the disk label out
    newfs partition 3
    mount / on /a
    mount partition 3 on /mnt
    Copy everything from /a to /mnt eg:
    rsync -vaxH /a /mnt
    or
    find /a -xdev -print | cpio -pdam /mnt
    umount /a and /mnt
    re partition the disk so that / takes all the free space.If that were your goal, you wouldn't have to move anything. Just repartition and use 'growfs' on the root filesystem directly (while booted from CD).
    eg ( starting at cylinder 1319 to cylinder 17816 )
    write disk label out
    newfs part 0 for /
    mount / on /a and part 3 on /mnt
    copy everything back from /mnt to /a
    Check /a to make sure everything is there.
    umount /a and /mnt
    re partition the disk to make /swap 10 GB
    ( starting at cylinder 1 to cylinder 1318 )
    write disk label out.
    And that's it.
    The disk you are working on is 17816 cylinders in size.
    yet down the bottom you say that :
    Total disk size is 53502 cylinders
    That tells me there are 4 disks in the raid 5 set, and that
    you have probably been presented with 3 x 136 GB disks.
    That means that you should have 2 x 136 GB disks free.
    Use one of these to copy your /root to. and then
    re-partition your first disk and copy data back.
    Or partition another disk correctly, write a boot block to it
    Copy your root data to it, and boot from it.The entire disk is presented to the machine (as seen in the fdisk output), but the Solaris partition is only using the smaller portion of it. You can't create a second Solaris partition and use it at the same time, either. Only one Solaris partition can be used at a time.

  • Can I use LINUX Drivers in Solaris 10...

    As a beginner, I have installed Solaris 10 version 08/07 onto my system. The motherboard is ASUS M2A-VM, with integrated graphics, network interface, audio, etc...
    My audio and network interface are not working... The motherboard came with a cd which has windows drivers and additional software.
    It also has linux drivers for:
    Audio:
    Core5
    Core6
    Linux
    RHEL4
    SUSE10
    Other
    realtek-linux-audiopack-4.05f
    LAN
    FreeBSD
    Linux
    SCO_OpenServer6
    Unixware7.x
    Chipset, and RAID!
    Has anyone used any of these ASUS Linux drivers with Solaris...
    If so what steps do I need to take to get them to work on my system! (I hate to ask, I know you all have better things to do) Maybe you can point me to a good book that explains how to go step by step...
    My question is how do I get my NIC to work (What steps do I need to follow? the sound is not an issue, as, I can do with out that. Will any of the drivers mentioned above work?) thank you in advance for your answers...

    Drivers are the "connective tissue" between the Operating System and the hardware. The connections from the drivers to the OS are not compatible between different operating systems, so no, you cannot use Linux drivers in Solaris.
    If the OS is similar enough you can sometimes get away with it -- example, using Solaris 9 drivers in Solaris 10. But between completely different OSes? Won't work.

  • Can I use this - Horizon MiniPak Portable Fuel Cell Charger - to charge my iPad or will my warrantee be voided?

    Can I use an Horizon MINIPAK Fuel Cell Charger to charge my iPad or will that make my warrantee void?

    Look for a charger that specifically mentions the iPad in its compatibility. For example, I have a Zagg Sparq, which will charge iPads, iPhones or iPods...it's a charger that you can plug in that's also a battery that holds a charge.
    Many of those 'use a battery to charge your cellphone' won't really work on the iPad. They're serving appetizers and the iPad demands a full meal

  • How do can I use Jumpstart to boot Solaris from Slave Drive

    Hi all,
    I have XP on Master Drive and I used Jumpstart to install Solaris on Slave Drive.
    This is the profile:
    install_type     initial_install
    system_type     standalone
    usedisk          c0d1
    boot_device      c0d1 update
    root_device     c0d1s0
    fdisk           c0d1 solaris all
    partitioning     explicit
    filesys          c0d1s0 10000 /
    filesys          c0d1s1 1111 swap
    filesys          c0d1s7 free /export/home
    cluster          SUNWCreq
    Now, I specified that the boot_device is c0d1 but after the installation the boot device is c0d0 which is my Master Drive...
    ...when I use Windows Boot Manager to boot Solaris... it cannot find the boot files on the master drive so it runs the DCA...
    ... so under the DCA I have to tell Solaris that the boot files are in my Slave Drive then I save it.
    ...I don't want to make this change everytime
    any ideas that would make this install hands free?

    ...don't know the answer to that but here is an alternative:
    ... use this as your finish script
    ... it changes the bootpath in bootenv.rc to point to the slave drive
    #!/usr/bin/perl
    open(INFILE,"/a/boot/solaris/bootenv.rc");
    open(OUTFILE,">/a/boot/solaris/bootenv.rc_out");
    while(<INFILE>) {
    chomp;
    #--cmdk@0,0 is the master drive
    #--cmdk@1,0 is the slave drive
    s/cmdk\@0\,0/cmdk\@1\,0/g;
    print OUTFILE "$_\n";
    #...replace bootenv.rc_out with bootenv.rc

  • Can I use iPhone 4s in China without roaming charges?

    We are leaving for China, Taiwan, Malaysia and Singapore in 2 weeks. I want to purchase an iPhone 4S, but want to use it without roaming charges. Can this be done and how?

    You can buy and unlocked phone (http://store.apple.com/us/search?find=iphone+4s+unlocked) and then purchase service from the local country you're visiting and insert their SIM.  It would probably be cheaper to purchase a short-term international plan from a local carrier though.  Call the major carriers and ask; here's a list:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937.  (Be careful about purchasing a phone outside of the country you're in; the warranty is country-specific.  If you buy one in Singapore you won't get warranty service in the U.S.)

  • Can Lightroom use leading zeroes?

    My file naming convention is 3-digit with leading zeroes. This allows the files to naturally sort in the correct order. I cannot stand to see a list of files such as: 1, 10, 11, 12, 2, 21, 22, 23, etc.
    This is such a simple thing, but I don't seem to be able to get LR to do this for me. Bridge will do it... Hm-m-m-m-m.
    Oh. I'm on a Mac G4 Powerbook, CS3 upgrade and LR.
    Thanks,
    Kittie

    I don't keep the files I export or import them back into LR. I exported from an ordered collection and renamed them so they would "float" in order alphabetically for a slide show.
    If you are going to be using LR, won't you want to move your photos from iview? Why don't you post another question about iview. There must be people here who have converted from it. First, try a search of this forum for iview.
    I've found that if there is a photo taken within the same second, LR adds something, I think a -1 to the name.
    Metadata. There are some things written, even entire books on DAM (Digital Asset Management). I've had some experience cataloging my photos in other products so I kind of knew what I wanted to do in LR. Think through how you will want to view your photos, what you will want to search on, etc.
    For example, me. We do a lot of traveling. I want to be able to find all photos from a particular trip. I do folder by trip, so that works so I wanted a program that supported my own folder organization, which LR does. But folders don't identify a photo if it gets out of its folder, so I chose an IPTC tag to use to identify them. I chose Job Identifier after reading about the tags and what they are usually used for.
    Non-travel photos are foldered by date, mostly. So to find a picture of a particular flower or a particular person, I will need keywords. I also like the fact that you can order or find things by capture date in LR. That's because we are old and we have lots of photos from long long ago.
    I use all of the location fields. "location", city, state, country. I use "location" for let's say Grand Canyon National Park, which isn't in a city. Someone else noted here that they put something like that in city because it isn't in a city and it means you don't have to look two places for the "top layer" of that sequence of country, state, city/location. I think that's a good idea, but I'd already started, so I kept what I was doing.
