Charging ipad & iPhone in Italy

I have a new ipad and am traveling in Italy..can I use the supplied USB charger without an additional transformer?

Very likely you can, but you will need a converter to allow you to plug your transformer into a European 2 round pin socket.  You can buy these in a department store or travel store.  In some hotels there may be a special shaver socket in the washroom which will accept US plugs.
Most electronic devices have voltage ratings printed on them.  Universal ones will be rated 110-240 V.

  • Do I need a power converter or just adapters for charging in Spain for iPad, iPhone, IBook?

    What do I need to charge my iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro in Europe (Spain). A power converter of just plug adapters?

    Just physical plug adapters. Apple chargers work on any voltage from 110 - 240v worldwide.

  • Is it ok to charge my iPhone 6 with my iPad charger

    Is it ok to charge my iPhone 6 using my iPad charger

    i do understand that, but frankly speaking, it takes approximately 3-4 hours to completely charge my phone from 1% to 100% (with 1A charger)
    Comparatively, it would take less than one hour to top up my battery with 2.1A charger.
    Hence, just thinking to myself that, "why didn't apple come with the 2.1A charger at the first place?"

    If you are seldom in a Wi-Fi Network Area, then you can turn off Wi-Fi until you knowingly are in such a Network Area.  You can go through your Applications where you don't really need to know the instant an Update is available and turn off the push update notifications.  You can turn down the screen brightness.  You can set the sleep cycle to 1-min.  You could set your email to check for new messages every 30-min. rather than less than 1 min.  Just some of many steps available.

  • Why can I charge me iphone with my car's usb port but not my ipad?

    Why can I charge my Iphone in my car using USB connection but not my Ipad?

    Because the iPad requires a lot more power to charge than your iPhone, and typically car and computer USB ports simply don't proivide that much.
    Its the same reason your iPhone comes with a 5Watt charger (and even then the iPhone only uses part of that) while the iPads come with the 10 or 12 watt charger.
    They just need more power.

  • IPad 2 charger on iPhone 4s?

    Is it okay to use the bigger more powerful iPad 2 charger to charge your iPhone 4S?  And how about the reverse? 
    I had my iPad connected to a Dell latitute laptop during setup (via USB) and it was in a state of "not charging".  I assume this was because the USB port wasn't able to provide high output to charge the device?  Will an iPhone chargine device charge the iPad 2 but at a slower rate?
    Thanks,

    "The fastest 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.
    When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode.
    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."

    As output voltage is correct, charging is safe. It will charge about twice as fast as compared to its own charger.

  • Can same power adapters be used to charge iPad 2 and iPhone 4s?

    iPad 2 is suppose to charge faster w/ the adapter that came with it. Does that mean the iPad adapter can't be used to charge the iPhone 4s even though both adapters fit both devices or can any adapter be used to charge any device

    Yes:

  • Can I use the IPad adapter/charger to charge my iphone

    My wife and I have been using the same Apple adapter/charger to charge our iphone & ipad.
    I decided today to purchase another aso we can each have our own.
    When I went to the apple store I was told that I should purchase an IPad Adapter as it used 10 watts.
    When I got home I checked and found that I've been using the 10w to charge my wife's iphone successfully.
    Should I return the adapter I have just bought & get an iphone adapter or can the ipad charger be used for both.
    thanks

    The iPad adapter can be used to charge the iPhone.

  • Can I use the Ipad Wall Adapter and my Iphone USB cord to charge my Iphone 5s?

    I heard that the IPad wall adapter will charge an IDevice faster, so I was wondering if I used my IPads wall adapter and my IPhones USB cord to charge my IPhone 5s, will it be okay?

    You are welcome.  Knowing which chargers are interchangeable helps when traveling, I only carry the iPad charger now since it works fine with the iPhone.  The other way around will not work, however.  You cannot charge an iPad with an iPhone charger, the power rating is too low.
