Do i need a new charger in the UK?

hello
i have just moved from Australia to the UK, and I am wondering if I need a new charger for my PowerBook G4 given that the UK has a different voltage to Australia.
I have the adapter for the power point, but do I need a voltage converter too?
Confused... I went to the Mac store in London but they didn't seem to know!!!! The guy tried to sell me a USB charger for my ipod instead?

I've travelled with my powerbook from the US to the UK, Bahrain and New Zealand. It works in all countries without a voltage adapter because they automatically adjust for the different voltages. You may need an adapter for the actual plug in the wall part, but those are cheap and can be got at most electronics stores.

I just got home from the Mac store where I was told I needed a new battery. The charger cord is fluctuating betwee steady green and a light blinking green. The problem is the icon read 31% charged. I thought if the light was green it was a all charged.

I just got home from the Apple store where I was told I need a new battery. The new battery is in, The charger light is bright green the icon reads 28%, and has flashed not charging a few times. I thought the green light meant the battery was charged? In fact the percentage is decreaciingand now the light is a light green flicker. Is something else wrong?

The Apple store already told you what was wrong.

Do I need a new charger?

I have an iBook G4 and my charger isn't charging the battery. When it gets plugged in the LED ring lights up but the pin in the middle of the charger has come off and now it won't charge. Do I need a new one or is it something else? If I do, where do I get one from as I can't find one on Apple website. Thanks

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
but the pin in the middle of the charger has come off and now it won't charge.
If by the pin you mean the part that plugs into the computer, you need a new adapter. The pin is what provides power to the computer.
Where do I get one from as I can't find one on Apple website.
Your best bet is eBay. Here is a sampling of what is available here. You may want to check on eBay in the UK.

Do i need a new charge adapter after updateing my i phone 3

do i need a new charge adapter after updating my i phone 3.

What do you mean by "updating"? If you mean "updating the software", the answer is no. If you mean buying a newer iPhone, the answer dpends upon which newer model you bought.

I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard. Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

Hi there,
I found that Time Machine in Mavericks will sort it all out for you. You shouldn't need to buy another backup drive, unless you have insufficient space left and can't afford to delete whats on there. It should just work fine.

No one here would know Apple's plans. But, if past history holds true, expect a new model iPhone sometime between now & the fall.

Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

In need of new charger for 2009 Macbook Pro

I got my Macbook Pro in the summer of '09, along with a charger cable. Now my charger has finally decided that it no longer wants to work properly, forcing me to maneuver it in all kinds of positions to make the connection happen (I think it got crimped somewhere along the way, and now it takes playing around to find the connection again).
I want to get a new charger, but I don't know which kind to get. The one I currently have has a T-shaped connector; does this mean I need to get one with the same shape, or could I get an L-shaped head? I know that the ones for Macbook air don't fit (my sister has one, and it's wider and narrower than mine), and I have no idea what version of MagSafe I have (writing on the bottom is kind of rubbed off). Any ideas?

You should replace it with the same model - 85 watt with T connector. However, it's likley the L shaped one will work as well. This is for a MacBook Pro.
Apple 85W MagSafe Power Adaptor (for 15- and 17-inch MacBook Pro).
Apple no longer sells the T-shaped adaptors. However, you can find refurbished replacements elsewhere by searching with Google.

My MacBookAir needs to be charged and the power cord is not lighting or charging

My MacBook Air needs to be charged so I plugged it in as usual, but the green light on the cord is not on and it is not charging. I have tried several plugs to no avail. Does the charging cord wear out???

You can try upgrading your device software, here is the link with the procedure

My iPod won't charge... Or hold a charge I've tried 4 cords... It often freezes. But I think I need a new battery and the part in the bottom that the charger plugs into...

It is explained in the title

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable
- Try another charging source
- Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

HT4060 My ipad mini wont charge I bought a new charger since the old one didn't charge my ipad and the same problem is happening i charged it over night and when I woke up it said 50% soo can someone help me this is my first apple product a

Well my ipad mini isn't charging.. I with the original charger it didn't show the charging sign when plugged in.. And I bought a new one a 12:00 one from bath bed and beyond. Now it ain't charging again even thought it did a few days ago.. Now I don't know what to do.. I don't wanna keep buying chargers..

Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) 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 (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). 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.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.htmlhttp://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

I recently bought 10gb of iCloud data for £10 totalling my date to 15gb but it's almost full and I need a new phone, is the only way to save all my 1300 pictures

Please may someone help me in regards to the above, I have a very old laptop and do not trust it for holding all my photos, is iCloud the best place to store them? & should I just bite the bullet and buy more data? New phone is needed soon, this one is 16gb I have just under 400 contacts & roughly 1450 photos & videos from the last 2 years. I don't really understand why if the phone is 16gb i only have 15gb on iCloud, I'm guessing that means I would only lose 1gb somewhere?
Sorry to sound like a total dummy but would really appreciate advice on this.
Many thanks

Import them from the camera roll to your computer and delete them off your device as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. You can then put the photos in a folder and sync them back to your device by selecting it on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings. They will appear on you phone in the Photo Library album, which is not included in the iCloud backup (because they are already backed up on your computer), and thus won't take any of your iCloud storage.
Another approach of course would be to start backing up to your computer using iTunes instead of to iCloud.

I ve a iphone 3g i try and get new app but keeps saying i need a new verson of the iphone software ios 5, how do i get it i ve tried everything

i am trying to update my iphone 3g software to ios5 but tried everything need help?? i can not download any apps untill its done

The latest (and last) iOS for the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1.There is no way to update beyond that. If you want to use apps requiring iOS 5 or later, your only choice is to get a newer model iPhone. The 3G is obsolete.

Support for 3.6 is going away. 10.x will not run properlty on RHEL5 because FF10 needs a newer version of the nss package. We have no choice but to use RHEL5.

As soon as you hit something that uses Flash (such as youtube) the browser locks up, and the following messages get output:
/usr/local/firefox/10.0.2/plugin-container: /usr/lib/libnss3.so: version `NSS_3.12.10' not found (required by /usr/local/firefox/10.0.2/libxul.so)

The EDA industry pretty much runs on Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 because the tools (which are very complex) take time to port and verify on a new OS. We have hundreds of engineers on RHEL5, and we have no idea when we will be able to move to RHEL6. Can you please either build with libraries supported by RHEL5 or provide a statically linked version of the newer FF?
We're stuck at 3.6.x until this happens (or some interim version supports EL5, but I don't have time to go try every version after 3.6).
We actually use CentOS5, but it's binary compatible with EL5.
Thanks.

I will not pretend to know any answers to your problems, but I do wonder if you realise Firefox did decide to produce and support an Extended Stability Release, unfortunately this is NOT going to be based on Firefox 3.6. but on Firefox 10.
