Charger replacement in europe

Hello, i bought an iPhone 5 in January but my charger hasn't been working normally for the last few weeks. It can't charge my phone properly. There are no signs of damage on the outside, but there's obviously a problem. Apple is supposed to replace my charger, right ?! But the thing is i don't live in a coountry with an Apple Store, otherweis i could go and make and appointment and etc. I bought my phone from my operator. So, if they don't want to replace my charger, what should i do ? (apart from buying a new one, i have warrianty rights !)

If your carrier is an authorised supplier in your country and they are responsible for warranty ,it is their responsibility

Apple representative offered to replace my cable but not my sons. Not a happy apple user right now.
I'll let you in on a bit of a secret. Apple retail staff (Specialists, Geniui and Floor Mangers) have a great deal of leeway when it comes to customer appeasement. When rapport breaks down, the customer is less likely to enjoy that leeway. Chances are, no matter who made the intial call, it will be reinforced regardless of how high it goes up the supervisory chain.
The item you went in for retails for $19. They probably misplace four or five of them each day. If they sent you home without one, there was likely a good reason for that.

Is it safe to charge ipad in Europe on converter

Is it safe to charge an ipad in Europe on a converter?

You don't need a converter to charge iPad in Europe. It is able to charge on either 220 or 110. What you do need however, is a plug converter, which would let you plug your iPad power charger into a plug in Europe.

Serial number not recognized by Apple website. Need help to get a charger replaced.

I have a MacBook Pro (Build13A603) that recently started having trouble charging. It looks like there is a short in my power adapter. I purchased it from a Best Buy, and my extended warranty from there has already run out. I do not have Apple Care. I know sometimes Apple is able and/or willing to help out in these types of situations, but I have been trying to contact Apple Care, and when I try to provide my serial number the website does not recognize it. I have used the one from 'About This Mac' as well as the one laser etched on the bottom of my computer. Any other ideas how I may be able to get in touch with them to see if they just might replace the charger for me? The closest store to me is over 60 minutes away so any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

Have you tried to verify your MBP serial number here:
https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
Check it in System Information>Hardware Overview.
You MBP requires an 85w charger. OWC sells them for less than Apple:

Charging iPhone in Europe and Russia.

I will be traveling in Europe and Russia. I have the Apple World Travel Kit which consists of plug adapters for countries and regions, a power adapter, and a USB cable and connectors.
Can I safely plug the World Travel Adapter into European 220-volt outlets to charge my iPhone, i.e., does the Apple World Travel Adapter adjust for 110 or 220 volts?
Michael..K

The Appke chargers are all universal on voltage and frequency, 100-240 volts, 50-60 Hz, you can safely plug in with either the World Traveler adapters or plug pin adapters available at many international airports.

Charging iPhone in Europe

I tried very hard to find the answer to my question, maybe it is too basic. We are traveling to Europe. Can I charge my iPhone with 220 volt electricity without frying it?

Well, there's really no debate about the not necessary part. The AC power adapters for almost all modern electronic appliances are auto switching, so all that's needed is a proper plug adapter. Personally, I've traveled from the through Europe, Africa, etc., with phone, computer, razor, etc., and never needed a converter.
The 'bad idea' part is more debatable, true. First off, if you don't need it, why use it? Second, quality and condition of the converter are a factor - low quality units (or higher quality ones previously damaged by surges) produce inconsistent voltage fluctuations, which can lead to excess heat in the converter and in the AC adapter connected to it. Also, as noted on the site you link, converters are generally not rated for continuous use. Some of the transformers (at the bottom of the page you link) are rated for that.
You also mention use with 'other appliances' - personally, my wife has 2000 W hair dryers and curling irons, either of which exceeds the capacity of a typical converter. Instead, we typically purchase inexpensive 'local' hair dryer for use while we're there, and give them away when we leave (only if needed - when in nice hotels in Europe, they are provided, but not, for example, in small towns in Rwanda - but there, the problem is not availability of appliances or whether or not you have a converter, it's whether or not there's electricity at all, or even running water ).

Charger use in Europe

Hey everyone,
I bought an American MacBook, but now I'm going back to Europe. Can I use my charger safely on the Dutch electricity net? It's 220 volts and I know that the American amount of volts is lower.
Am I going to blow up my Mac when I plug it in?
Thanks!

All Apple power adapters are universal worldwide chargers that can handle 100-240 V AC at 50 or 60 Hz. The adapter you got in the US is identical to those sold by Apple for use around the world. The basic difference will be the plug (and/or cable) that attaches to the charger.
You could either get the Apple Travel Kit or just a passive adapter. You might also be able to find the plug alone for your home country at a local Apple Retail Store (if there is one) or an Apple retailer. Your adapter handles 220 V just fine.

Macbook pro battery reports not charging replace now

Hi,
My MacBook Pro reports that it is not charging and the status is "replace now". This is an early 2008 model so is it simply the fact that the battery is due for replacement or could there be another explanation :
I have not used the Mac Book for a few months and battery lasted 3-4 hours on last use.
The battery has only had 30 power cycles, I thought that average should be about 300 ?
Did Apple recall/replace known issues with batteries in this model/date, even so it probably isn't valid now ?
Thanks
Jake

There have not any battery recalls that I am aware of. I suggest you go to the Apple store and have the MBP examined. Your cycle count is very low but the battery is not new, coupled with the fact the MBP warning message is there for a purpose.
Ciao.

How to charge phone in Europe?

I am going to Europe in a couple of weeks and wonder about charging my droid incredible 2 phone there -- can I use my regular charger there, since they have 250 voltage as compared to our 120v here? I know that I will have to get a wall plug adapter, but can I use my charger?

I actually just had the same problem but found out how to solve the issue.
Problem:
Battery #1: 100%
Battery #2: 0% (plugged in, NOT charging)
2-Step Solution:
1. You must first Undock the tablet from the keyboard.
2. Unplug the the charge cable from the keyboard and plug it back in the same place.
A flashing red light should now appear instead of the white one.
After that, your status should finally say, 'plugged in, CHARGING'
How that works for you all =P

IPhone 5S charger replacement waiting time - India

Hello
I am an avid Apple user from India . My iPhone 5S charger stopped working last night hence i took it to an authorized Apple Service Center in Jaipur , India . Iwas told to submit the cable as the cable was faulty and since the iPhone was in warranty hence the replacement would be done . I was very happy with the response but my happiness was short-lived .
I was told that I would have to wait for 3 days to get a replacement as there was no cable available with them . Upon asking I was told that the accessories are procured from Bangalore and takes 3-4 days to arrive .
I would like to request Apple authorities to please ensure that spare accessories are available because as you can understand its really difficult to wait for 4 days with a dead phone just to avail the warranty . Its a request in behalf of all Indians to Apple Care to please look into this matter and do the needful so that all we faithful Apple customers walk out of the Service Centers with a smiling face .
Thanks - An Apple User since 2009 .

Charging iPod in europ

I am going to Europe on monday and will be buying a charger that I can bring with me, but I have been warned that even with adapter for the outlets, they almost fry everything that is plugged into their outlets. I really don't want to risk frying my iPod, I just bought it. Is there a different way I can charge it without the adapter or can I buy one over there?
Mac Mac OS X (10.4.9)

The Apple charger can be used around the world if you get one of those. You can also charge the iPod by connecting it to a computer. USB is an industry standard and the ports are the same no matter where you or the computer are in the world. If you are a frequent traveler, you can purchase the World Travel Adapter Kit, a set of "duckheads" with prongs that fit different electrical standards, so you can charge your iPod through any electrical outlet around the world. The World Travel Adapter Kit includes six AC adapter plugs for use in North America, Japan, China, the UK, continental Europe, Korea, Australia, and Hong Kong. The Apple kit is a tad expensive though and there are many good third party alternatives, have a look at Amazon for examples.

Charging ipad in europe

Im from mexico, if I go to europe would I need an AC convertor to charge my ipad or I would only need the outlet plug

While the Apple kit is great, for the most part, there is one of each type of adapter, I think two for Europe.
You probably already own the cables.
Please note that the adapters for UK - Ireland and England, use a three prong outlet, while in most of Europe it's a two round prongs. (Some packages call these adapters for Europe or southern Europe. They're the same.)
It's inexpensive to buy three of what you need, depending on your needs. If you're travelling alone or with friends who will buy their own, you'll probably have plenty with three. If you're travelling with family, you might consider more. If that's the case, you might want to consider a power strip with more outlets (some have usb included)
so you can charge phones, ipads, cameras, ipods, etc. all at once. We have been bringing a power strip on vacations and weekend trips for years (in carry-on bags.) Everything gets charged overnight. Someone pointed out in another thread last week that Amazon sells a power strip for the UK, so my guess is that they'll have one for Europe, too.
Individually, the adapters are about $3.00 each. See which will work for you.
Hope this helps.

HP ENVY 15-j013cl Notebook PC Charger [replacing the charger dc connector]

The DC connector to my charger is deformed. Someone tried to force it into their Acer laptop.
Where can I purchase a replacement connector that I can solder?
What color are the positve and negative wires?
Is the outside of the connector positive or negative?
alternateley
Does anyone sell a replacement wire with the correct molded connector that I could solder at the charger side?
Does the power supply even come apart without melting plastic?
I have ordered a replacement charger from the HP store. The repaired charger would be a back up. If radio shack sells the part I may be up and running before my order is delivered.
thank-you for your support
Tom

Hello @teckshen ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the computer is experiencing a battery/charging issue. But if I do say, if your notebook can dispense battery, wanna trade?
I actually have a lot of useful steps that will help you out in this thread: problem while charging
Please let me know your results, and have a great day!
