Can I use my old wall charger?

I used to have a 4th Gen iPod which recently broke. I went out yesterday to buy the new 30 gig 5th generation iPod and to my surprise it didn't come with as much accessories as my older iPod. I was wondering if it is ok to us my old wall charger on my new iPod?

Yes, you can use the wall adapter and the firewire cord to charge your new 5G iPod. Just know that the firewire cable that came with your 4G iPod (the one that connects to the charger) can only be used to charge the iPod with the adapter, not to sync the iPod with the computer.
But for a simple answer, yes you can use that charger with your new iPod

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.

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 my Firewire wall charger?

I know that the new ipod does not support firewire charging/transfer into the computer, but is it possible for me to use my Firewire Cable and plug it into, from the dock, my Firewire wall charger?

This is in regards to the charger, not a computer connection. Unfortunately, a firewire connection will not update an Ipod. I wish apple would've included this feature in the new Ipod because the only fast connection I have on my windoze box is firewire.

Can I use the same wall adapter to charge my ipad and my ipod

Can I use the same wall adapter to charge my ipad and my ipod touch

No offense, but that's nice. I heard I was wrong and that what I said didn't make sense, so I simplified it. If I'm wrong, fine, but you have no reason to be such a *****. You never explained why I was wrong and you were right, so how am I or anyone else suppose to know that for sure? Then I tell you my source, and you insult me some more and then ask for my background, which as for this area goes, I already gave you. I worked at an Apple store for Christmas and was told by someone on the Genius team to tell customers not to charge iPads via iPhone chargers, as they had been known to fry the adapter or in one weird case, the actual outlet. Now I could see the outlet blowing be a bunch of other contributing factors, and not directly associated with the charger. However, the topic arose when a customer came in because her iPhone wall adapter didn't seem to be working, but wasn't that old, and admitted to charging her iPad with it. Why would I NOT believe that?
And my DEEPEST apologies on commenting on old threads. I know how vital that is to existance and what an inconvenience it is to EVERYONE else. I'll be honest, I wasn't checking dates as I assumed suggested posts with like one answer near the top of the list were newer.
Fine, I did something foolish, but I still win as I'm not either of you heartless ****** with nothing better to do than Internet harass others. Congratulations on your existences.

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 I use my Samsung Wall USB charger to charge iPod Nano (6th gen)? (output is 5.0V, 0.7A)

Can I use my Samsung Wall USB charger to charge iPod Nano (6th gen)? (output is 5.0V, 0.7A)

My biggest concern is that it will fry the circuitry. I don't know what the Amp output is on the Mac-branded wall charger, but I think that USB 2.0 usually only goes up to 0.5A.

Quick answer is: You can if it works, but it is not recommended.
Hope this helps.

Can i use my old ipod firewire power brick to charge my iphone?

i'm going on a trip and would like a spare charger. will this work for my iphone 3g or will it fry it?

i'm getting a 404 error on that link for the ipod touch manual. but i looked at p.33 of the iphone user's guide, and it does say that you can't use a FW charger. it doesn't say why, however.
i see that the iphone charger is 5w/1a. what happens if you use a 12w/67a charger with a device that's configured for the former?
according to somebody in this thread, the device being powered "requests" only the power it needs, so you can use a more powerful charger (a MBP charger for a MB, for example) - but you can't use a less powerful charger to charge a device that needs more power (a MB charger for a MBP, for example).
(for instance, can you charge a macbook with a macbook pro brick - i know you can't do the reverse)

Can I use my old iPod 12v output power adapter to charge my iPad2?

The iPod charger is only 5W.
The iPad 2 needs a 10W charger.
It will charge slower and hotter.

Can i use my old IPOD dock with the new G5 IPOD?

Can i use my old IPOD dock with the new G5 IPOD?

That's really good to know. I thought because it was a different thickness you wouldn't be able to, and the dock adaptor that comes with the new iPods doesn't fit into the old Photo dock.
Do you know if you can use the charger that came with the old Photo iPods? You can plug straight into the power socket, but the cable that goes into the charger from the iPod is the firewire cable, so I was thinking maybe it wouldn't work, and I don't want to try it in case I short out my iPod or something!

How can I use my old AirPort Express?

How can I use my old AirPort Express (the one that plugs right into the wall without a power cable) to stream music to a stereo when I am using the new Airport Express? The AirPort Utility 6.1 will not recognize the old AirPort Express.

Apple does not make it easy for you to use an older device when they want you to buy newer devices.
See this link for tips on how to install a version of AirPort Utility on Mountain Lion that will allow you to configure your older Express:

This is not supported by Apple, so it is your decision on whether you want to move forward with this. It works fine for me, but I cannot guarantee that it will work for you, nor offer support if you have difficulty.
