Do I need an adapter for the UK?

I will be traveling in Ireland next month. I generally charge my iPod via a car charger. Does anyone know if my iTrip charger from Griffin will work on a car in the U.K.? Should I buy some type of wall charger and a voltage converter? Of course, I may want to listen while in the car, so the iTrip would come in handy there...if it will work.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

deggie...when you said "remember in some parts of the EU you can't use FM transmitters in cars" I thought you just meant they wouldn't work for some reason. I'm surprised to learn they are actually illegal??? According to the article linked below, that may have changed as of the first of the year. More research required.....

EDIT: Apparently the iTrip is now legal in the UK???

EDIT 2: But they are still illegal in the Republic of Ireland (not part of the United Kingdom...forgot my geography for a minute....knew I needed to refresh myself on the Ireland thing...)

You will need an adaptor to convert the plug only, the voltage is fine.

No, you shouldn't. the existing block should take of any voltage reulation for you.

Does anyone know if there is an adapter for the new nano iPod to connect to a FS-2 iPort?

Does anyone know if there is an adapter for the new nano iPod to connect to a FS-2 iPort?

IIRC the very original Bose Dock had the old 30 pin wiring and was designed initially for the iPod
If you have that version then you will need a converter to the later wiring ( sans firewire) as in Scosche .
and then the 30 pin to lightning Apple adapter
In theory it should work but who knows.
If you have a later one which already works with current devices then just the lightning adapter
It is important to get the genuine Apple adapter I have several and all work fine in several scenarios
Avoid the eBay knock offs most only charge

Network adapter for the private interface for RAC

Hi guys
This is the specification for the Network adapter for the private interface in RAC:
The network adapter for the private interface must support the user datagram protocol (UDP) using high-speed network adapters and a network switch that supports TCP/IP (Gigabit Ethernet or better).
Do you have a document where I can have more deep details about it ?
Thanks

The network adapter for the private interface must support the user datagram protocol (UDP) using high-speed network adapters and a network switch that supports TCP/IP (Gigabit Ethernet or better).Note that TCP is also used in addition to UDP over the Interconnect. As for the statement that the NIC must support UDP - wrong statement to make. The NIC does not support UDP. The IP (Internet Protocol) stack does. The NIC supports the bottom layer of the ISO model. UDP is at layer 4.
As for your Interconnect, you have two basic choices. Gigabyte Ethernet or Infiniband.
For GigE you need of course a GigE NIC and a GigE switch, and a cable to wire the NIC into the switch.
For Infiniband you need a HCA card (e.g. Mellanox InfiniHost PCI card) and an Infiniband switch. As HCA cards are dual port, it make sense to get 2 cables and wire both ports into the switch and bond those 2 ports as a single logical NIC. You can run IPoIB (IP over Infiniband), which means that the 2 ports on the HCA will be seen by the o/s as NICs - and bonding is supported which enables you to create a single logical NIC on top of these 2 NICs and thus have full redundancy.
Also note that GigE typically is only 1Gb/s. 10 Gb/s is available, but expensive (especially the switch). Infiniband typically is QDR rate today that provides you with 40Gb/s pipes. So each port on the HCA will be 40Gb and the bonded port will thus be 2x40Gb/s.
Infiniband is a lot faster and more scalable for an Interconnect than GigE.
Also, because of the capacity and flexibility and low latency of Infiniband, you can also use it for your storage fabric layer (running your storage protocol over it).
Typically you will need to get HBA cards (dual fibre port) to wire the RAC node to the storage array's fibre channel switch. These HBA ports are 2Gb/s.
You can eliminate these HBAs and fibre cables by using a storage protocol like SRP (Scsi RDMA Protocol - RDMA=Remote Direct Memory Access) - running SRP over your Infiniband infrastructure, together with your Interconnect.
This is btw what Oracle's Database Machine and Exadata Storage servers use (and one the reasons they have broken all RAC performance records).

PES 2012 is no longer available in the US App Store and only on the British App Store currently.

That (an app no longer available) happens sometimes.
Your only way is if you have the appt on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case move it to your iTunes library and sync.

I moved from the UK to the US with my iMac. What do I need to buy for the UK iMac to work in the US? A power convertor? A plug convertor? or Both?

I moved from the UK to the US with my iMac. What do I need to buy for the UK iMac to work in the US? A power convertor? A plug convertor? or Both? I had previously read that you only need a plug convertor (three prong to two prong). But I'm terrified that my iMac will blow up if I only use a plug convertor and not some sort of voltage convertor (Transformer).

I'm not really hardware tech savy - is it easy to pop out the UK power cable and plug in the US power cable? Or do I need to get someone like an iMac support guy to do this? And because of the voltage difference, is there something built into the iMac that takes care of the voltage difference for me? Thanks!!

Apple digital AV adapter for the ipad 2 or a Apple TV

What should I get a Apple digital AV adapter for the ipad 2 or a Apple TV?
Wanna use it for showing photo and movies:)
thx

Assuming that you already have the iPad 2, you're looking at a $99 purchase versus as $39 purchase. Why to spend over twice as much on the AppleTV?
Another thing it would depend on is how often you plan to use the connection. If it's going to be an everyday constant thing where you're likely to find yourself wanting the surf but the iPad is connected to the TV (so you have to disconnect then re-connect each time), then maybe that will be enough of a hassle to get the AppleTV. If you only want to use it every now and again (like after renting a video from iTunes, or to share content when people come over), then you may just get the Digital AV adapter and be fine.
Actually, I just thought of a third option. You want the connection to be more convenient, but would still rather not have the AppleTV sitting there unused most of the time, you could add the iPad 2 dock for $29 which would be $69 dollars and you're still under the $99 of the AppleTV.
Oh, and one MORE thing to think about If you've got a computer connected to your network (that's connected to your media library) you may find that having the AppleTV is an easy way to get all that content to your TV, so it would be an additional benefit to the whole situation above and beyond just the iPad.
For me, I purchased the AppleTV, I have one stationary computer (a Mini) that serves all my music and videos that are in my iTunes library, plus an iPad which I can use as a remote control to control the AppleTV, or I can use AirPlay to push video/audio to the TV from any connected device. I like being able to freely switch between modes at any time without disconnecting and reconnecting cables and this setup allows that (also allows making my TV's sound system a broadcast station for all my music!)
