Do I need a different adapter (than what was provided in the World Traveler Kit)?

I just moved to the UK from US and purchased the World Travel Adapter kit. Though great for powering my phone, the USB adapter provided is not built for a laptop.
Can I use my old adapter with the new UK plug? The wattage is different on the adapters (old was 45W versus 10W). I have a MacBook Air and a MacBook Pro.

Is the power adapter in the world travel kit identical with the one in the world travel kit?

I was told that to charge my Ipad2 in Europe I need to buy the world travel adapter kit - with the apple power adapter that looks the same as the one that comes with the Ipad2 - plus the adapter plugs. I do not need any more adapter plugs - have lots of those and multiple ones for Europe. So why am I being told by Apple store people that I must buy the "kit" for $39 when I already have a power adapter that is 110-240 . I can see taking a second power adapter - in case something happens to the original one- but why am I told that the power adapter in the kit is "different"? If so - different in what way?

To follow up: I'd put my apartment number (there are about five hundred at this address) in my address information (or Apple pulled it in with the information that goes with my Apple ID), but the number didn't make it into the shipping label. Calling DHL got the apartment number added, and they will attempt delivery tomorrow.
So calling DHL was the thing to do. I even grudgingly admit that having me make the call provided the information needed to close the case.
Two residual complaints: Apple/DHL should have formatted the address label correctly. And, DHL should have registered a shipping exception, which should have gone to Apple (or me), so I could have been told of the problem two weeks ago.

Does the world traveler kit work on the 60 watt mag safe power adapter

does the world traveler power adapter kit work with the 60 watt mag safe power adapter.

Hi Aiian,
The kit contains all the plug ends needed to travel around the world. the small flat bladed square piece that slides on the 60 watt mag safe charger for use in north america was lost on vacation. I purchased this kit because it appeared to contain two plug adapters that looked exactly the same, one flat blade and one flat blade with holes at the end. when i tried one of the ends nothing happened (no charge).Wondering if it contaians a resistor inside? Mac offered only to replace it if it was faulty, but
I lost mine.

Address Book contact preview shows a different date than what is input in the birthday field.

When opening the address book and clicking on an entry, the preview pane at the bottom shows a different date than the date that is entered in the birthday field. It shows the day before the actual date that is entered. See images below:

Thunderbird numbering is based on the Extended Support Releases, which are provided every seven "regular" cycles (thus after 7 6-week cycles = every 42 weeks) to minimize fallout from new features hitting the releases to frequently. Initially, those release were issued to organizations only which require some kind of internal review or certification of software prior to deployment.
Currently we are in the "37.0" cycle and 38 beta 1 has just been released (but doesn't have the fix yet). Meaning, the next release after 31.6.0 won't be 31.7.0 but 38.0 already, followed by 38.1.0 up to 38.6.0, the continuing with 45.0, etc.
Confusing, yes, but that's what they came up with.

How do I choose a specific version of IOS? I'm doing app testing and I need to test a version other than what iTunes provides as the latest

I am testing applications and I want to run an IOS version that is not the latest version offered by iTunes. ex: Plug in my iPod Touch and the latest version of IOS being offered in the update option is version 4.2. I need to test v4.1. How can I download and downgrade my device?

Downgrading iOS is not supported by Apple. You may find workarounds on other web sites if you do a web search for such information, e.g. "downgrade iOS". You can links to Apple's direct downloads for iOS 4.1 here, among other places:
http://www.redmondpie.com/download-ios-4.1-final-version-for-iphone-4-3gs-3g-ipo d-touch/
though there are no guarantees as to how long Apple will continue to have those available.

Visting Peru,Does the World Travel Adapter Kit work there/need converter??

I'm planning to go to Peru for the summer, I want to take my macbook and I'm also thinking of buying an ipod 30g video. I know the voltage is 220, but the thing is this my first time I'll be travelling with my macbook being that it cost me soo much money.
Will the World Travel Adapter Kit work there and Do I need to buy a converter?? Because on the packaging it says all the countries that it'll work in and there's no mention of South America and I've asked at the Apple Store and they basically said "it should" but I just want to be certain. Do I need to get anything else? I don't plan to go online over there so , Do I need to buy a Travel Surge Protector??

If you have an iPod power supply (AC adapter) these are also automatically
switching or auto-detecting, so all you'd need is the little end part from the
world travel kit. If the design of the iPod AC Adapter is like the ones I've
seen (standard Apple unit) which looks like the MacBook's, you can take the
same adapter piece and use it in place of the other adapter's AC - in
part. The little end part of the adapter (which you can take off to put on
the long AC - in power cord, instead of the prong/plug on adapter part)
comes off when proper effort is applied to it. It is not an easy to come off
item, but you can carefully slide/push the piece to get it off.
[There are third-party chargers for iPods but they may not be
auto-switching or support both 110/220 volts. You can charge
an iPod from the USB cable, but it would then be using the
computer's power. If the portable is fully charged and you
have access to an AC power source, you could easily charge
an iPod from the computer without discharging the MacBook.]
If you have the long AC power cord that goes with the MacBook's AC adapter,
you can see how the modular plug usually shipped on the power adapter is
on the inside; this may help in understanding how it comes off. The world
power adapter kit (from Apple) has matching parts to utilize this feature.
I use a long power cord all the time on my iBook's power adapter; and
the part is identical in how it comes off, as the iPod's standard (cube)
AC power adapter. If nothing else and you are in a travel store, such as
one would find in a larger airport, ask about those single power plugs
that are used for electronics which auto-detect and switch; these are
not real "power converters" since they only need to physically match
the power utility's shape, not change the power from 110/220 or back.
They are the most basic adapters because do not change the electricity,
your Apple product will truly do the adapting to the regional AC power.
[If the end of the iPod adapter is not like that of your MacBook's
(they are like the PowerBook/iBookG4 most exactly) you may
need to check the World kit from Apple as it would likely have
the correct parts; should they have a subtle difference in fit.]
(With few exceptions. There are some products that require a regional
power supply; those are listed in the Apple Support power adapter page.)
•Apple authorized resellers have Apple iPod chargers; so
a visit to them may be necessary to get the correct one
for your iPod. Be sure to look or ask about traveling and
if the unit you find is capable of auto-detecting and running
on 110 and 220 with only a prong adapter kit.

How do I add a print button that would print out pdf or different version than what is on the site?

I see this example on NY Times. If you pick any of their articles and click print or do the short cut (Command-P) ... (Control-P for windows), the layout of their article is completely customized and cleaner. It seems like they've edited the print look to be different than what you see on the website.
I find that very cool and something I've bent dying to achieve. My guess is that I could make a pdf to what I want the print look to be and have a print button read that instead of the website but I don't know, I need help with this.

I have but it's not what I'm looking for. I want to edit what the printer will actually print when a reader clicks print. So if the page has a puzzle, for example, and the reader clicks print. The printer will print the puzzle in a different location on the page without some of the clutter that's on the site or have some message that's not originally present on the website.

Adobe Media Encoder exports different video than what appears in CS4 timeline

I'm using Premiere CS4 to edit a short skiing video. All shots were taken using a GoPro @ 60fps, 720p. All of the clips were converted into slow motion by using "Interpret Footage" and setting the frame rate to 24. I used the sequence preset "AVCHD 720p 24", and editing seemed to work fine. The video played smoothly and correctly. However, after exporting in Adobe media encoder, the video was far different than what I previewed in the timeline. It seems as though each clip shows up at the correct time, but it disregarded any trimming I did to the clips and each one is played from the very beginning. Also, each clip plays extremely slowly, and there is signifigant ghosting (frame blending issue?). I can also see that the preview window that shows up while I set the export settings displays the incorrect video as well. However, if i change it from "source" to "output", it displays it correctly. I tried exporting using H.264 720 24p and the youtube HD widescreen preset, both of which failed. I am somewhat new to HD video, but I cannot seem to come up with any reason why my video will not export correctly. Any thoughts?

Why do I get a darker printed picture than what I see on the screen of my iMac

why do I get a darker printed picture than what I see on the screen of my iMac

Because your screen is calibrated incorrectly? Because you are using an Adobe RGB color profile instead of the recommended sRGB? Because your printer is not working correctly?
With no information other than "it does not work" guesses are all that one can provide
What set up do you have? What color profile are you using? How is your screen calibrated?
What else can you tell us?

After upgrading to the newer version of Firefox, a lose all my tabs every time I close. I've done what was suggested in the FAQx, but I still lose them all when I close. I want to fix this. How?

I want to know how to have my tabs save when I close Firefox. I did what was suggested in the FAQs section, but all my tabs disappear every time I close Firefox, whether using the "exit" command, or the "X" button. This was the very reason I never updated to the new version previously, but had hoped that the problem had been addressed and upgraded, now I'm stuck with having to reopen every tab every time I open Firefox. Please tell me there is a way to correct this. And, I'm not fluent in technospeak, so I need simple, basic instructions. Thank you. Mark

I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

I will use my 110V MacBook in the Philippines which has 220V sockets. Will the World Travel Adapter Kit help me?

Assuming you're in North America now, you probably won't need any sort of plug adaptor there; most sockets in the Philippines are the same as those in North America. In case you do, it doesn't contain the correct adaptor.
Voltage conversion is handled by the MacBook without any additional components.

FCP7 HELP - Exported quicktime mov plays differently than what I edited on the timeline. The playback shows the clips with ins and outs that are different than what I set in the clips when I edited - some are too early and the clips don't playback

Please help ASAP.
Specs: IOS 10.6.8
Processor 2.4GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3 -- Everything is edited, sourced, and stored on an 2TB external hard drive to make things go faster.
Editing with FCP 7
When I export the sequence I edited with quicktime, the playback video is very different from what I edited on the timeline. The playback has the clips with ins and outs that are way off than what I cut, and some of the clips don't show at all or have changed transitions. However when I play in the timeline in FCP, the sequence is fine, just the way I cut it.
The source of the clips was one long .mov that I cut into clips for the timeline. Everything has gone smoothly but the exported .mov is just so different.
How can I get the time codes of the clips to be the same in the exported .movs? I just want the quicktime .mov to represent my edit exactly.
This video is due tomorrow - if the solution is too time consuming, can I play within the FCP player window and Log and Capture?
Thanks,
MV

What is your source material? Is it H.264? FCP does not work correctly with that material.
Click on a source clip in the FCP Browser, and once selected, type Command + 9 to see the item properties for the clip. Either report those properties, or take a screen shot of the item properties, and post that here.
Next, click anywhere in your timeline, and then type Command + 0 {zero} to see your Sequence Settings. Either report those Sequence Settings, or take a screen shot of the Sequence Settings and post that here.

Do I need a different adapter (than what was provided in the World Traveler Kit)?
