HP Omni 10 5600US - Is there a USB to barrel connector charging cable?

As we all know, the power cable for the Omni10 5600US leaves much to be desired.
Barrel connector. Fine
Cant use the USB port to charge. Fine
BUT...Is there a USB to barrel connector charging cable? Arent USB cables just basically wires arranged in a certain sequence so it should be possible yes? I do not want to carry around the little mini power brick around with my tablet and the option to be able to charge from a portable battery, my laptop, a usb cigarette lighter, or even a buddies phone charger where the USB cord can break away would really make quite a difference.
Even if I did bring my power brick to work , its still isnt long enough to plug into my power strip and up through the desks cable management.

Yes you can. You'll need to purchase a USB OTG (on-the-go) cable. I recommend using a drive that has its own power supply but I've successfully used small USB powered drives also.

Is there a USB hub that will charge & sync iPad

Looking for a USB hub that will sync and charge my iPad and iPhone ideally with 7 ports.
Is there one out there as I can't seem to find any?
Just about to return a D-Link dub-H7 hub as it seems to becausing issues with the USB ports on the iMac. All seems well when i leave a device charging when I go to bed but in the morning none of the iMac ports work until i restart.

This is the problem with these ports. I bought a powered USB at MicroCenter last winter. It had 7 ports, two were designated for high powered devices and yet I plug in one iPhone to charge and within a few minutes, the hub will disconnect from the computer.
All I can recommend is searching for POWERED hubs on Amazon and read the reviews. Not sure if there are some that will actually work but trying a few can get expensive.

There is a problem with the charging cable that wont let my iPad charge. it is probably the little usb thingy. it does charge when it is out of power, but as soon as it turns on it stops charging. anyone got a fix for it? mail me at simenrognli@hotmail.no

My chargers little USB port probably is the fail. it lets my ipad charge only when it is completely out of power, but as soon as it turns on, it stops charging. Any tips on what i can do? The charger is new and has worked until today. i cant bring it to the store because it was bought in my neighbour country Sweden. Thanks in advance.

- Try another cable.
- 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. You can still go if your country has Genius Bars

USB Hub that also charges at 2A for iPad

I am researching if there is USB hub that can charge an ipad at the required 2A rate and as well allows connection to other devices through the same USB hub.
I found one that advertises a 2A port. It is made by UNITECK and the model number is Y-2072. It is a 6 port hub that has one ipad charging port that delivers at 2A chargin rate. I want to know if anyone has tried this USB hub to know if it enables simultaneous charging at 2A as well as data transfer to another deveice connected to the hub ?

The following powered hub is amazing! Not only charges and syncs my iPhone 5 and iPad mini simultaneously, but charges them much faster than the Apple charger. I talked with the company before I bought it and it's been thoroughly tested with both devices. Best USB hub I've ever had.

Is there a usb 3.0 cable for iPods?

I was wondering if there are USB 3.0 cables for iPods. Any feedback would be great

No. Apple only sells one cable for the iDevices.
The iDevices will work with a USB port but it will be not faster than a USB 2 port.

You have to use the battery charger to recharge the battery. The USB port won't do it.

Hi! ASIC LabRat,
I agree with your comment. IVI drivers take too much overhead and the executing speed can be very slow compared to the drivers developed using VISA platform. The previous link sent by the NI engineer was very old (2001) and doesn't really help you at all.
Please take a look at this one instead: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/4713.

IS there a USB Tether Fix for iPhone 4s & iTunes 11.1.1

IS there a USB Tether Fix for iPhone 4s ?
Mac OS X : 10.6.8
iPhone : 4s w/ ios 7.0.3
Additional Apps : iTunes 11.1.1
I had this problem once before with a previous "iTunes" update where Ifixed the broken "ktext" file. No idea what do do about this snafu. Any suggestions would be appreciated...

OK. Can't edit so here's my reply.
Both names seem to be OK if I want to just carry some tunes on just the sd card it self and then stream the music to the 4S. What I am hoping to find is a way to actually put the music (mp3/4) files on the iPhone 4S directly. Judging by the 2 first posts and by what Amazon has on the two adapters listed by xtremecarbon, it does look like I cannot do this. It bites but that does seem to be the outcome of this.
Again if anybody has any leads or ways of putting music directly on the 4S without iTunes, do let me know. In the mean time I'm looking at the 13" MacBook Air and at the MacBook Pro. I don't think I can twist my wife in getting the Pro and I give her my old one. But I sure will give it a try. At least I know she does like the MacBook Air.

If yours is the mid 2011 model, then no, it does not come with a USB system disk. The computer has a Recovery Partition, and Internet Recovery mode to provide all you need to restore the system. All you really need is a reliable internet connection.
Yes, I know, for some people it is a tad disconcerting, as they may not have a fast internet connection in the event that a restore is required. The best workaround is to create a clone of the system onto an external disk (using Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper apps). Potentially, if you do it early, you can fit everything onto a 16 GB flash drive.

IPod Touch 4g USB Charging Cable(s!) Not Working. Went through 5 in a year.

I've had my 8 gb iPod Touch 4g since November 12th, 2010. I bought it from Target (so its not covered under warranty anymore) love it and use it for many hours every day, but there is a problem with the USB charging cables.
When I got my iPod, it came with the standard Apple charging cable. That cable worked for a few months (maybe... 3?) and all of a sudden stopped working. When I used my friends cord, it worked perfectly fine. She had the same exact model and cord as I did. I ended up just buying a replacement cord, thinking that this was just a fluke or whatever. No such deal. I purchased a third party cord from amazon, and it worked for a few months again. (Let me note that I also got a car and wall charger with it, those work perfectly fine to this day.) Once again, all of a sudden it broke. And again, I tried a friend's cord and it worked fine.
I ended up buying a third and fourth cords, which was also third party, and after that broke, I was fed up and went to the Genius Bar for an appointment. I explained my problem, and they made an appointment with me. Eventually, they just said to buy another cord, this time Apple brand. I did, and it has been working fine up until tonight, when it just stopped charging.
When I say that the cords broke, I mean that all of a sudden they would stop charging my iPod, no matter where I plugged it in. (computer, wall, car, etc.) It would/will only charge if I bent it a very certain way, and then I would need to hold it there, which I obviously can't do for hours. (;
I would take this apple cord back now, since I believe there is a warranty (although, I need to double check that when I can get to the papers.) if it weren't for the fact that, from use, the coating/white plastic of the actual cord has split and you can see a few of the wires. I will have to double-check if this is covered, though because of the outside appearance, I doubt that they would take it back. This has not happened with any of the other cords, however.
What should I do? Would restoring help this problem? I have been contemplating the idea for a while, but having to re-download/etc all of my apps, music, etc., is not the most appealing idea to me.. I have reset a few things a while back, though I cannot remember what they are, sadly.
Currently, my iPod is running iOS 5, as I just updated it about a month or so ago. Before that, it was running what the iPod touch 4g originally came with... I believe it was 4.2.1?
I really love my iPod, but am fed up with having to buy cords every few months, as I have gone through four or five in just a year.

I think stevejobsfan has misunderstood your problem.
You specifically state that in one case you can see the inner cord and wires of the lead. So, either - you are mis-handling the cord or a pet is chewing it. So, if you don't have a pet - it's you.
When you remove the cord from the iPod (or from the other end of it) you should handle by the plug, not the cord itself. If you pull the cord you are straining the connection between the cord and the plug and that will eventually cause that connection to break.
If this had happened to just one cord, maybe it's the cord. If it happened to several of the same make from the same source, perhaps it may have been a faulty batch. But for it to happen five times, with cords from different sources and different manufacturers - everything points to the cord being handled too roughly.
Buy another cord - but in future, remove it by gripping the plug and not by pulling on the cord. This applies to any cord or lead, including mains powered devices. If you have any other cords for any other product, I suggest you check them for damage because damaged cords can be a fire risk and create a risk of electric shock. Mains voltage can kill.
Another thought; if you wrap cords - including headphone leads - around anything (such as the charger itself), wrap it loosely. A tight wrap also strains the cord to plug connection.
