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.

Can I use my iPhone in Europe and will it work as a hotspot for my iPad?

Can I use my iPhone in Europe and will it work as a hotspot for my iPad?

It didn't work for me during my February 2013 visit to Switzerland. The Personal Hotspot feature on my iPhone 4S works fine when I am in the US. Upon arrival in Switzerland, my phone connected to the Swisscom network. Phone calls, SMS, Web, and E-mail worked fine on the iPhone. Funny is the Personal Hotspot feature completely disappeared from the settings menu while there. It reappeared once I was back in the US.

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 ).

I usually charge my iphone at around 40% or more and sometimes at 10% and I usually use my phone while its charging. Will this hurt my battery and should I charge l the way to 100% or unplug at around 80 or 90

You can start charging at any time.
You can stop charging at any time.
You can use the phone while it is charging.

Check the writing on the USB transformer and look at the voltage range

Need power adapter from an iPhone 5 Europe to charge in canada?

Please, Need power adapter from an iPhone 5 Europe to charge it in canada?

You just need to get an adapter for the plug pins
No need for a voltage adapter, just look for 120/240 50/60Hz on the label and if you do see it you're set for North American power.

Just bought an iPhone 5s, as I turned on the phone it showed 71% of battery, I drained it to 15% and next charged it for 3 and a half hours to fully charged. Did I do any mistake ? Should have I let it to get discharged in order to fully charge it ?

Just bought an iPhone 5s, as I turned on the phone it showed 71% of battery, I drained it to 15% and next charged it for 3 and a half hours to fully charge. Did I do any mistake ? Should have I let it to get discharged in order to fully charge it ? Somebody told me I should have let it discharged and then to fully charge, but I didn't do it, my iphone is working very well, the battery too but I'm worried if the battery lifespan is gonna get worsen soon if I didn't abide by the rules and procedures of battery charging.
I had problems on my previous iPhone 4s, it died because I didn't replaced the battery with a new one because my battery never worked well and I never knew it , the battery used to overheat my iPhone and it caused to damage my processor completely to death. Who does the replacement of the iphone processor? I need help how to maintain with the iphone battery. And also let me know if I did something wrong that I should get worried about or not ?!?!

Apple does not fix the iPhone 4S, they replace the phone. If not covered by warranty, called an out of warranty exchange. Cost is US $199. Make an appointment at any Apple store.
Be aware, Apple does not sell iPhone parts, thus there is no legitimate source for genuine parts.

Why does my iPhone 4 not charge correctly? Problem is definitely with the phone and not charges or chords. Phone will charge but very slowly and no icon comes on. Computer and iTunes doesn't recognize it a being connected.

My iPhone 4 quit charging correctly. It does charge but very slowly and icon doesn't indicate it as charging. I've checked cables and charges and the problem is definetily with the phone. My car stereo no longer recognizes it as a device. Neither does the computer. The real strange thing to me is that when I plug it into my old klispch speaker dock it will play songs. My battery life is good when it is charged so I don't think its the battery. I've tried resetting the phone and cleaning the charging port. I'm out of warranty.
Would disconnecting the battery possibly reset it from some glitch or is the charging port got some bad contacts?

I checked with the Genius Bar. It was a new dilema to the lady that was helping me. She took it to a back room and worked on it but it came out the same. She gave me some options for repair or credit for replacement.
I just kept the phone and put up with slowly charging it by plugging it in and then turning it off.
I couldn't transfer anything from itunes.
I finally got fed up and bought a new charging port for $10. and a toolkit for $3. I looked up a video on youTube for the replacement and did it.
That solved all the problems, it was the charging port, must have been some bad pins or something because it patially worked.

My iPhone 5s with iOS 7.1 become very hot when charged almost reach 100% and will shut down itself.

My iPhone 5s with iOS 7.1 become very hot when charged almost reach 100 % and will shut down itself. Then I need to off the power and let it cool down first before I can on the phone back. Please help me to solve this problem. Thanks.

Hi Limfromsi,
It is normal to an extent for the iPhone to get warm during charging. If your iPhone is currently in a case, you may want to try charging it without one and see if the issue occurs, as the design of the iPhone uses the exterior of the device as a cooling surface. For more information about iPhones and temperature, you may find the following article helpful:

If you continue to have issues with your iPhone in the default config (no case, using the included original cable and power adapter), you may want to have your phone evaluated for service. The following page may be of use:

I am currently living in Europe and using my iPhone on airplane mode only with wifi. My iMessage switched to my e-mail account and when I go to the settings to switch back to my phone number that isn't an option to click on. How do I get it back?

I am currently living in Europe and using my iPhone on airplane mode when I have wifi. My iMessage is switched to my icloud e-mail address and when I go to my setting to switch it back to my number, it is grayed out and not an option to click. This was working before with my number so I know that it's not from being on airplane mode. How do I get it back to my number?

They need to go into their settings>messages and make sure iMessage is on. Also they should click on the send & receive button to make sure their phone number is selected.

absolutely that is frustrating. if the battery life is fine there could be two things software or hardware. to find out if your back up your information in itunes and import pictures and then restore the phone as NEW then you can test it out. if it is still shutting off it is hardware related

HT201253 iPhone 5s is not recognized by iTunes - when I connect my iPhone, iPhoto opens and the phone begins charging but iTunes does not recognize it and I cannot sync. Any advice?

Howdy AndieKanaras,
It sounds like your iPhone is being recognized everywhere but in iTunes. I would use the troubleshooting for that issue in the following article, named:
If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

Using iPhone in US and later in Europe,,,? Lock problem?

Hello,
Anyone know whether I can buy an iPhone here in the US, use it for the year we will be here and then take it back to Europe and us it there? I understand that I may need to request an unlock code (??) to be able to do that. Any advise from those in the know? Is it true that legal unlocked iPhones are now sold in Germany?
Many thanks, Floor

Are you saying all iPhones sold in France are sold as carrier locked with Orange, and Orange provides an unlock code to those who pay the premium for an unlocked iPhone?
I wasn't aware of that, but I guess that makes sense vs having two inventories - a carrier locked version and an unlocked version - sold as unlocked out of the box.
The unlock code originates from Apple, and Apple being required to sell an unlocked version in addition to a locked version due to French law is different from Apple giving at&t the unlock code for an iPhone sold in the U.S. as carrier locked with at&t only in this scenario.
Apple may do this for an iPhone sold in the U.S., but I still think this is doubtful at the present time, or during the next few years anyway.

HT1349 my iphone went dead and wont charge at all, please help :(

my iphone went dead and wont charge. I tried plugging it on the wall and via the usb to my laptop but still no luck. any suggestions on how to make it work?

Try using a differnt USB cord. Or hold down the power/home button together for 10 to 15 sec or until you see the apple logo and then release, wait for your phone to boot back up.
