Can I use my old firewire charger with my iPod Touch

I've recently got an 8GB iPod Touch which obviously only came with a USB cable to charge and sync with my laptop.
However, I've also got an old 4th generation 20GB iPod which came with a firewire lead that connects to a firewire mains charger. Can I use this to charge my iPod touch from the mains? Also can I use either the firewire or the old USB cable to connect to my laptop??
Thanks very much.

You can use the firewire charger to connect your Touch to the mains. I use my old one and it works just fine. I suppose you can also use it to charge using your computer though I can't say I've tried. However, as the newer iPods don't have any kind of firewire circuitry, you can't use the firewire cable to sync you iPod.
Best of luck.

  • 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.

  • Finally Got iPhone 3GS - can I use my old (1st gen) iPhone as iPod Touch?

    Got my new 3GS this morning - now looking to see if I can get any use from the old 1st gen iPhone it replaces.
    Is it possible to run a 1st generation iPhone without a SIM, so that it functions like an iPod Touch? The only functions I need on the old one are iPod related - play music, video - I don't mind losing apps, internet etc.
    Any ideas?

  • Can I use my old iPhone 4S like an iPod touch?

    Is it possible to restrict the Cellular network so that my iPhone 4s will effectively be an iPod?  I am trying to give my old iPhone to my daughter for use as an iPod and do not what her to be able to use any cellular services.

    See this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3406. All you need to do is make sure the SIM in the phone is no longer connected to cellular service.

  • Can i use a 85 watt charger with a new macbook air

    Can i use a 85 watt charger with a new macbook air that comes with a 45 watt charger. One says its 14.8 volts and the other is 20 volts.

    To be clear, the wattage of the adapter is not the power delivered to the Mac, but rather the power the adapter is capable of delivering.
    Think of it as the difference between a 200 HP and a 400 HP engine; both can drive at a certain speed with no issues, the difference is what happens if you floor the gas pedal.
    The same is true between the higher wattage power adapter that comes with the iPad and the one that comes with iPhones; you can use the higher wattage adapter to charge and iPhone with no issue, but if you try and use the iPhone adapter to charge the iPad it may work, but it will take much, much longer.

  • Can I use the old power supply with the new unit?

    I have a second generation Apple TV. When I install the new unit next week can I use the old power supply with the new one and the new power supply with the old one? This would save some messing with cords behind the units.

    Hello:
    I would definitely not try that.....  The power supplies may be compatible - or may not be compatible.  I think messing with cables is a small price to pay for not potentially frying a new device.

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - Anything else here
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers

    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
