Can I use my old iPod 3G dock with my new iPod Touch

I just got an iPod Touch, and I am wondering if there are any reason why I shouldn't use it with the old dock that came with my iPod 3G in 2004. It seems to sync and charge without any problem, but I'm wondering if it could cause physical damage because it's not designed to support that shape, or if there's any other potential issues. The iPod Touch came with an adapter, but it doesn't fit my ancient dock.

I do not understand why a 2G Touch would not charge from an AC connector. I am charging mine with the AC connector which came with my iPod Photo. That may have been the last iPod to include the charger with the device. But yes, it charges the Touch just fine. However, my Bose dock does not work with the Touch at all. I understand that it would not be able to charge it, but I can't even play through it. Two other docks I have are the same EXCEPT that both of them have an auxilliary input and I can play the Touch through a cord going into that input, lying down of course, not in its dock.

  • Can i use an old eprint email account with a new printer?

    can i use an old eprint email account with a new printer?

    Hello arbazu,
    Unfortunately, when setting up a new/replacement printer, you wont be able to use the same email address, nor can it be transferred to another printer. Once an email is used, the email address itself is not able to be used for a certain period of time (which I believe is 6 months).
    However, by creating a new email address, but adding an 01 or 02 at the end, you can get something very similar to what you had previously.

  • Can I use my old battery & power cord with my new machine?

    Hiya everyone,
    I recently trashed the screen of my iBook bought in Sept 03 (by spilling water on it.) I've now bought a new one, and as the battery and power cable from my old machine are still fine, and as I could do with a spare of each, I just wanted to check it would be ok to use them with my newer machine.
    Both machines are 12 inch iBook G4s, the only differences I can think of are as follows:
    Old machine:
    30GB hard drive
    1 GHz
    256MB ram
    New machine:
    80GB hard drive (I had it customized)
    1.33GHz
    512MB ram
    I'd appreciate knowing whether my old power cord and battery can be used with my new machine, so if anyone could answer my question, I'd be most grateful. Thanks everyone.

    Hi Charity,
    Yes, you can use both. They have the same specs.

  • Can I use my old iPhone AC Adapter with my new iPad mini

    Just bough myself a new mini retina but was wondering if I could use my old iPhone 4 AC power adapter with it i.e. plug the new lightining to USB to AC Adapter.
    The iPad's power adapter is a bit bulky and anything so I don't end up taking a hundred power adapters on holiday tomorrow!
    Looking at the details they say:
    Old charger:
    100-240v ~ 50/60Hz 0.15A
    Output 5V == 1A
    New charger:
    100-240v ~ 50/60Hz 0.45A
    Output 5.1V == 2.1A

    Another option is that you can take ONLY the iPad mini's 10W charger with you instead of the iPhone's 5W charger. It's not that much bigger than the iPhone's 5W and will safely charge BOTH devices. It's really not recommended (& not considered compatible by Apple) to use the 5W charger to charge devices requiring a 10W or 12W charger. Yes, as was mentioned above, you CAN use the 5W to charge the mini Retina. It will take longer and the charger will likely generate more heat. Personally, I'd just take the 10W charger. It's safe and compatible (officially by Apple) with both your iPhone 4 and the iPad mini Retina.
    Compatibility for 5W charger: (scroll down to compatibility)

  • Can i use the old iPad keyboard dock for iPad2?

    can i use the old iPad keyboard dock for iPad2?

    Instead of inserting a ruler behind the iPad, I have found that putting the Keyboard Dock on an incline plane also works.   Once I found the appropriate angle of the incline, then I cut a piece of wood with that same angle, painted it white, andglued the Keyboard Dock to the piece of wood.
    Now I don't have to insert a pad or ruler between the iPad and the Dock.  The iPad now leans forward to the correct angle.
    The raised angle also helps  me type better due to the tilt.

  • I'm have iPhone's & iPads with AT&T.  I want to change to Verizon. Can I still use my old iPhone and iPads with the new company?

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the other ID.  When you delete the account it will prompt you about what to do with the iCloud data.  If you need to migrate it and merge it with the data in the new account choose Keep on My iDevice; then choose Merge to upload the data and merge it with the new account.  If your data is already in the other account and you don't need to migrate it to the other account, choose Delete from My iDevice.

  • Can I use my old charging cube purchased with and iPod Photo that has international plugs to charge my iPhone 4S?

    I have an old charging cube that I purchased with my iPod Photo several years ago.  It has various adapter plugs to use in other countries some of which have 220 volts.  In the USA we use 110 volts.
    Can I use the old cube with the proper plug to charge my iPhone 4S in Israel?
    Thanks in advance.

    The power will be okay.
    If the dock cannot take adapters, I strongly advise you to not use the dock (if you want to keep it), without creating support for the iPhone. It will break; had this happen to an iHome with my 5th gen iPod, due to the lack of accessories to support the new iPod profile.

  • Can't use my old HDD after upgrading with new one,old is GPT protected

    Hi everyone! First of all I would like to thank you in advance!
    Recently I upgraded my old HDD on my MacBookPro. I made a clone of the old disk, installed the new one in the MBP and putted the old one in external enclosure. Now I'm trying to use the old disk with the enclosure, but it doesn't appear in Finder, it appears in Disk Tools, but I can not perform any actions on it. I tried to erase it, but with no success! The old disk is GPT protected and I don't know what to do. Tried to erase it with Windows and Linux with no success neither. I know the enclosure works because it recognize every other disk, but my old one is untouchable to my Mac OS! I'm looking for possible ideas on how to make my old HDD usable with the enclosure?

    Can't really help with your Internet issues, but I can put you on the path to leaning more about Macs.
    If you're a former Windows user, there many resources on Apple's web site to get yourself familiar with how Macs and OS X work.
    Here ard a few areas to spend time with

    http://support.apple.com/videos/
    http://www.apple.com/support/lion/
    http://www.apple.com/support/osx/
    For the video tutorials, in the video search box, just type in OS X. You'll get a list of OS X video tutorials to watch  as you learn to use your iMac.
    Start with the Anatomy of a Mac video first, Then the Finder Basics video second. After you have watched and put to use these two videos, you can watch any other OS X video you want in any order.
    Here is a free eBook download of David Pogue's OS X Snow Leopard The Missing Manual here. While OS X 10.7 LIon and OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion work a bit differently than OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, there are many things that still apply.

  • Hi, why can't I use my old e-print address with my new printer?cc=NL

    I have a newer photosmart 5510 model and had to install it again. But when I tried to connect to the eprint centre it only worked when I removed my old printer. But than I couldn't use the emailaddress because I got the message it already existed... How do I change this? I used the same login.

    Hi,
    My suggestion: change the old one to a different one then try again. Or you can do using this order:
    1. Add a new printer (now you have 2),
    2. Remove the old printer, (now only new one) 
    3. And then Change the new printer to the old email address.
    Hope this helps.

  • Hi, can I use my old hi-fi speakers with airplay? And will the quality still be good?

    Hello. I want to replace my old kitchen radio / CD. So I'm thinking of streaming my music. And then I wondered, will I be able to use my old hi-fi speakers? And will the quality be as good as my cds?

    Old hi-fi speakers are not AirPlay compatible. The speakers must be able to stream via your Wi-Fi network. Hi-Fi speakers are too old for that.
    Your iMac must be a mid 2011 or newer running v10.8 Mountain Lion or later to use AirPlay >  About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X
