GrabIt charger for iPad2 and iPhone

I am trying to purchase a back up car charger for my iPad2 and iPhone. I've compared price and found GrabIt charger has the best price and it's selling in the local stores http://http://shop.grabitcase.com/index.php?cPath=41&osCsid=6f0e77dcf06f3ed533df 8e019648aec7 but I need to know if this is Apple licensed product or not? Some people say this GrabIt charger is certified by Apple, but some people say it's a copy accessory. I need help before making the purchase because I am afraid it would damage my iPads. Thank you.     James

While this may be the most acceptable explanation, and probably accurate one, it would be nice to hear one from Apple.  While playing movies may be more computationally intensive than navigating through icons on your device, playing games with interaction may push the limits beyond usability.  This I understand and appreciate.
While I'm a big proponent of forward development, I do agree maintaining backward compatibility at the expense of performance doesn't exactly equate to innovation.  However, maintaining at least one release version, especially less than 1 year old,  isn't exactly asking too much.  Although we are all quite aware that purchasing new equipment is the convenient solution, you can't help having an audience with new technology and hardware purchased within the last year be somewhat disappointed.  This would have been a nice feature.  It is what it is.

  • Best type of charger for iPad and iPhone?

    If I need to buy a new charger what do you recommend?

    Purchase one from Apple. Non-Apple power adapter quality varies widely and will invalidate your iPhone's warranty if they damage it.
    Counterfeit power adapters bearing phony Apple labels are extremely common. They can also bear fraudulent consumer product safety approval markings and may expose you to lethal electrical shock. The companies that build them are out of reach of US consumer protection agencies and have meager assets for your estate to recover.

  • Charger for ipad and iphones

    I am loooking for some recommendations on a charger accessory.  We have 2 iphone 5s and an ipad air.  The iphones have otterbox cases.
    They all using the lightening conenctor.  Right now we have a tangle of charging cables.
    I am looking for some kind of charging system or dock that will decrease the clutter.  It needs to work with the lightning connector, handle 3 units (2 iphones and an ipad), and be able to charge them all simultaneously.  I have found it suprisingly difficult to find a good product.
    Any recommendations?

    Wattage is a measure of power, not of voltage.
    The difference is the amount of power the adapter can provide.
    "Excess" power is not an issue, the lack of power is.
    So for example, if you try and charge an iPad with a lower wattage adapter, it may not charge at all or will take longer to charge.
    But it will not hurt to charge your iPhone or iPod with the higher power iPad adapter.

  • Airplay mirroring for iPad2 and iPhone 4s

    All my current, and less than 1 year old iOS devices, cannot use this feature.  How is it that I can Airplay movies and music fine but iOS 5 mirroring requires new hardware.  Come ON!

  • If you are traveling in Europe, do you need both an adapter AND a voltage regulator to charge the IPad2 and the iphone? Or, the reverse, will it hurt either if I use both the adapter AND the voltage convertor?

    If you are traveling in Europe, do you need both an adapter AND a voltage convertoro charge the IPad2 and the iphone? Or, the reverse, will it hurt either if I use both the adapter AND the voltage convertor?

    You may only need adapters for the different kind of sockets, depending of the country you want to travel. A voltage converter is not needed.
    The Apple power units are multi voltage devices, supporting a range from 110 V to 240 V. as you can see on the labels. O.K. for most of the labels you need a magnifier, but its on them.

  • Imac is 4 months old.  Using installed Outlook for Mac 2011 but now want to use ical so that I can start to use iCloud to sync with my Ipad2 and iPhone.  How do I move my calendar from outlook to ical on the iMac?

    This is my first attempt at using this forum so please be patient with me.  I am new to the apple world.  Bought an Imac desktop computer back in October and installed Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 because I was used to Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and outlook.  Now I am being told that I should be using ical for my calendar so that I will be better able to move to icloud for use between my Imac, Ipad2, and Iphone.
    The question is:  how do I move my calendar which is in "Outlook for Mac 2011" into ical on my Mac?  Do I have to remove the Outlook entries from the computer and reinstall them back to the same machine or can I somehow move calendar entries within the machine?  I appreciate any help I can get.  Thanks.

    I also already deleted my phone number from iMessage on my MBP.

    You have to install the iCloud control panel for windows, then sign in with you apple ID, and check what you want to sync.

  • Where can I find a car charger for my new iPhone 5?

    Where can I find a car charger for my new iPhone 5?

    I use a power inverter which works great. You can get one that plugs into your car charger for about $30-$50 on Amazon. You just plug it into your car charger and plug the MBP power pack into that.

  • I LEFT MY IPOD5G TOUCH without charging for days and now when iput it to charge it doesnt what should i do buy a new battery or is it dead ? where can i buy a new batttery

    i left my ipod 5g touch without charging for days and now when i put it in the charger it doesnt charge does it need a new battery or dead ?? where can i buy a new battery in egypt?

    Try:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar                                     
    and maybe:
    Not Charge
    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • OSX Mavericks: Maps: None of my Apple Devices (iPad2 and iPhone 4s both running iOS7) show up in Maps to share directions to my device. They are all on the same Apple ID. Thoughts?

    In the Maps App of OSX MAvericks, I am unable to locate my other apple devices to send directions to. I click on the share button and it does not even list the devices as an option. I am using an iPad2 and iPhone 4s both in iOS7 and from the same Apple ID. Thoughts?

    This did not work for us. Nothing did. After hours on the phone with Apples leading to an "executive" support person who was on my Mac via a live session could not figure out why the Apple apps don't work and my other apps lock up. He's going to get back to us he said and Engineer has to be talked to to find out what is wrong. If I learn anything I will post it. I've tried every "trick" that's worked for some on here anywhere, but I've had no luck.

  • HT4060 my ipad has been charging for days and not taking the charge what else can be wrong.?

    i have an apple i pad 16 gb...i have it charging for days and its not taking the charge what else can i try...

    Could be the charger, cable or the iPad.
    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.)
    And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
    Or - Recalibrate the battery. See link below.
    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%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://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.

  • Palm Desktop replacement for Mac and iPhone?

    Since Palm Desktop is no longer in active development, is there a Palm Desktop replacement for Mac and iPhone?
    http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/33219_en.html#mac
    I mean, a single application (not a bunch of them like Address Book, iCal etc) that works on Mac (desktop) and that can sync with the iPhone. Including all data from the current Palm Desktop:
    1. Address List
    2. To Do List
    3. Memo List
    4. Date Book
    Thanks.

    If only Apple did something like that (all-in-one-application personal organizer with contacts, memos, calendar, to do lists, etc)
    Well, they offer all those functions--Mail has Notes and To-dos show up in both Mail and iCal, plus Address Book. Clearly someone made the fundamental decision that separate integrated programs were better than an all-in-one, so I wouldn't expect an all-in-one from Apple in any foreseeable future. But you can send a feature request, if you like:
    http://apple.com/feedback
    What would be interesting---and may exist, I haven't looked---would be if a third-party used the open access to iCal/Address Book info to build an all-in-one that integrated with Apple's separate apps, which could provide seamless iPhone/OS X integration while still letting people have the unified interface. Postbox uses Address Book but I didn't see any calendar/notes features in my quick check. Lots of apps build better replacements for Apple's individual programs--BusyCal, I think a Mail replacement, etc---but nothing unified that I've heard of.
    However, my point was that you may be better off grabbing Entourage 2008 while it is still available than waiting for Outlook 2011, which is going to be a different program. Sometimes features go backwards, and Missing Sync compatibility may change or be delayed with Outlook 2011. I don't see the advantage of hanging onto PD until the very last minute.
