Hello, I have Just purchased an iphone 5 2 weeks ago but when I look through my USB power adapter, there is no serial number printed inside the USB opening, can I know is it a fake one?

If you purchased it from Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it's genuine.
If not, it is very likely to be counterfeit and dangerous to use. Counterfeit power adapters often bear fraudulent consumer product safety markings. It is difficult or impossible to distinguish a genuine power adapter from a counterfeit from an exterior inspection, and inspecting its interior destroys the adapter.
From http://www.apple.com/support/usbadapter-takeback/:
If you need a replacement adapter to charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod, we recommend getting an Apple USB power adapter. For a limited time, you can purchase one Apple USB power adapter at a special price — $10 USD or approximate equivalent in local currency. To qualify, you must turn in at least one USB power adapter and bring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to an Apple Retail Store or participating Apple Authorized Service Provider for serial number validation.
If in doubt, do not use it.

HT1665 Can I use a 10 W USB power adapter from an IPad to charge an iPhone 5s.

I have 10 W. USB power adapter that I bought for my iPad. Can I plug my iPhone 5s into it to charge? I see that the adapter that comes with the 5s is listed at 5 watts.

volts are pushed amps are drawn
if a charger provide the 5volts ios devices were meant to be charged by it does not matter
if it can provide 1000 amps making it a 5000W device because of ohms law which state W = Amps * Volts

Registering USB Power Adapter - Help

Hey, does any1 noe how to register the USB Power Adapter for the iPod? ive tried puttn in all the numbers on the boxes and it doesnt work and it says that its not a valid serial number. the problem is, i also dont have the receipt for teh adapter either since it was a gift from a friend so that would also disable me from knowing the "enrollment number" as well.. help or suggestions NE1? hit me back here or email me personally @
[email protected]
thanks in advance

What do you mean "register"?
Are you trying to register it with Apple for warranty purposes?
ive tried puttn in all the numbers on the boxes and it doesnt work and it says that its not a valid serial number
Probably because there is no option to register a USB power adapter. The registration page is looking for an iPod serial number which you want to register.

Eligible adapter for USB Power Adapter Takeback Program

I found out about the USB Power Adapter Takeback Program, so I brought my third party USB Power adapter to an Apple Retailer. But they refused to take it. They said that the adapter have to look like an apple adapter to qualify. Is this true?

Hi John,
the store I found on the takeback site you listed (under Apple authorized Service providers) told me they will echange anything except look alike chargers. I gave in three chargers, look-alike and non-lookalike. They duly registered the serial numbers on the ipad and iphone and said they first have to "book it in" before they can do the exchange. They booked it in ON the October 18, 2013, so I get a call a few days later saying they looked at the chargers but "they are fine".
The takeback site doesn't actually say the charger first has to be deemed eligible, in fact it clearly states: "We are offering this special takeback program for any USB power adapter". Further, "We will ensure that these adapters are disposed of in an environmentally friendly way" seems to be the only stated reason to book them in, not to evaluate eligibiity. The spirit of the takeback in fact is spelt out on the said page when it mentions: "Apple Retail and Apple Authorized Service Providers cannot advise you on the authenticity or safety of your adapter", meaning there is no evaluation just a takeback.
A takeback which didn't happen, which hasn't made me safer, and only creates mistrust and an air of deception.
Please advise, what is the service provider meant to do in my case?

Ipod shuffle 2nd gen does not charge on new 5W USB power adapter

Hi,
my perfectly functional ipod shuffle 2nd gen with original dock will not charge with the new Continental Europe 5W USB power adapter, even though the specs of the power adapter include the 2nd generation shuffle. Shuffle will blink orange three times, longer than normal blinking, and then do nothing. probably nothing I can do about it, but worth a note. The US model of the new 5W adapter does not include the 2nd gen shuffle, so maybe it is an error on the apple specs page.
Maybe the 2nd gen needs more than 5W to charge?

indeed, it needs the bigger 12 Watt Adapter and the apple site is wrong.

New iPod touch 5th generation charger won't work with computers or USB power adapter?

I just got this charger less than two weeks ago and just yesterday it started saying "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work on this iPod." It will only work on some occasions, but most of the time it won't. Other times it will show that it is charging, but when I select to "Trust" my computer it stops charging. When I plug it into the USB power adapter, it rarely works (even when I try it in different outlets.) Any way to solve this issue?

If a non-Apple cable and the place will not take it back then:

IPod Nano + USB Power Adapter (+ Universal Dock)

Hi,
I've got an iPod Nano and a USB Power Adapter to charge it. Untill a few days ago it went fine, even with my Universal Dock between them. But since 2 days my iPod only charges when I put the Power adapter direcly into the wall plug, but with my Hi-Fi installation I'll have to use it with a multiple socket.
Does anybody know why and how to get round this?
Thanks

possibly a fuse blown in the multiple socket plug?? or even in the power adapter itself

Travel Adapter and iPod USB Power Adapter

I know this is going to sound like a stupid question but this is all new to me so please bear with me I just bought an iPod video, a World Travel Adapter kit and the Power Duo kit - which contains a power block wall charger, USB mini cable, and car charger. I was looking at the plugs in the travel kit and do not see how they work. The product data says that it works with the USB power adapter - which at this point I am assuming is different than the power block wall charger? Can someone verify this for me? Also, can someone then tell me how these travel adapters plug into the USB power adapter (or power block wall charger) so that they can be used when traveling overseas. I can't tell from the photo of the USB adapter how this would be done...I don't want to buy yet another power adapter if I don't need one, but I sure can't see how they work with what I have so far or how they would work with the USB power adapter..I would have thought that the travel kit would have some with everything that I need but apparently it doesn't.
Thanks in advance.

Now I have hooked it up to a PC without itunes on it. The ipods says it is charging but when you disconnect you can see that the battery level is even lower. Does this mean that I should just take back the ipod to exchange it for a working one?
Thanks

USB Power Adapter, is it usable with 220V or only 110V?

I am considering buying the mini USB power adapter along with the iPod touch, but I live in India where we have only 220V. Does anybody know if the Apple Power Adaptor for the iPod is 220V or only 110V? Thanks!

The review comments for this charger says it is good for 110-220V

About the USB Power Adapter

Hi! I'm from India. I've had my iPod mini(second gen) for a couple of months now. I recently asked my friend in the US to buy me a USB Power adapter (I'll be getting it in a couple of days). But what I want to know is that is there a voltage rating-limit on the adapter? Cos its 220 V rating here, unlike in the US. So is this adapter going to be useless to me?

Oh, I think I have one of those (AC prong adapters).
But thank you so so much for the clarification.
I am relieved now.
Thanks again!

New USB Power Adapter includes cable

I just got caught and hope this advice helps others...
The original USB iPod power adapter did NOT include a USB-to-dock cable. I just ordered the NEW USB power adapter and the extra cable. Guess what - it now includes the cable!

Did you find a solution Raf SR?
I have a similar problem. After initial (updating/restoring) issues with my ipod mini which I won't bore you with, I got it working and charging successfully through my PC via the USB cable. Then I bought a USB power adapter for when I am away from my PC. When I connected my ipod to the power adapter it did the brief "do not disconnect" thing then "OK to disconnect" with no attempt to charge. I left it overnight and the following morning it had the battery/triangle/exclamation mark symbol and I had to reset the ipod to get it to work (I did this while still connected to the power adapter).
I borrowed a friend's firewire power adapter and that worked fine. I went back to the store and swapped my usb power adapter for another (firewire power adapter wasn't available) and it did the same as the first one. The ipod still charges fine via the PC and usb cable.
I don't get it! Can anyone help? Thanks

Apple iPod USB Power Adapter - ?

Hello everybody!
I've got a problem with my new iPod mini and I hope you may help me.
After updating the new software for my iPod Apple told me to charge the battery with a Apple iPod USB Power Adapter which I don't have.
I tried to connect the iPod to my computer (Windows XP) but there's always the picture of the adapter on my iPod. I've tried to reset it, restart the computer and so on ...
But the display always shows this sign of the adapter.
I hope you can help me, I'd be very greatful.

iPod mini Windows XP

but it's already worked with my computer, the iPod worked alright, so I don't think that I need this stuff you've just named.
The iPod will work just fine without those things.
It's the update/restore process that needs the A/C adapter.
Anyway, you don't need to listen to me if you don't want to. I won't be insulted.
