I am traveling in the UAE. 220v country. Bought a plug in converter. Plugged it in but iPad will not charge. Same with Mac pro. Suggestions?

Would appreciate suggestions.

iPad is not voltage dependent and will chargte in 110 or 220. What you need is a plug adapter that will let you plug your 10W charger into the wall sockests in UAE. I may be wrong on the MacBook Pro, but I believe it too will charge on 220, with just an adapter to let you plug it into the wall sockets.
EDIT: I checked and I was correct on the MacBook Pro. It too will charge on 220 V outlets. So, you don't use a voltage adapter. You just get an adapter that let's you plug your US plug into the wall sockets where you are......

I can connect my tc to the internet and back up my iMac, but it will not back up my mac book pro... ANY thoughts?

When I go to connect my MBP, it says I have the wrong user name and/or password; however the names and password are the same on both computers.
The MBP connects smoothly to the internet, just not the TC.
Does this help?
There is no login name required to get internet unless you are running a vpn or pppoe client.
The wireless uses a security key.. but that is fixed in the wireless setup.. so no user login should be required at any time.
It sounds to me like you have the wrong setup.
Please do a screen shot and post it of the imac setup that works.. show us the airport network with its ip address and where you are putting in the login.
Please also do a snapshot of the TC and how it is setup.
What broadband do you have?
Is the TC a router or bridged?

HT4060 iPad will not charge if hooked by USB to pc or plugged into wall. How do I know if the problem is with iPad, cable or power adapter. I have a 12, 10 and 5W adapters no success with any. Only one lightening cable so can't swap cables.

I'm sorry but this is too funny to pass up.

I have downloaded the latest Adobe Flash - it says successful but will not work. It says to 'Manage Plug-ins but the Plug-in says it is enabled but it will not work at all. I have tried disabling and then enabling - no success.

There's two different versions of Flash. The ActiveX version for IE, and the Plugin version for other browsers. Did you install the correct version? This forum's software doesn't thing that Flash is installed for Firefox or the Plugin is disabled.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
4. Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

My ipad will not charge up. it just shows the red battery signal and then switches off

my ipad will not charge up. it just shows the red battery signal and then switches off. The same charger succesfully charges other idas so i know it is no the charger that is faulty.Any suggestions

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%.
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.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.
 Cheers, Tom
BTW- Your profile shows you have iOS 6.1.4 installed. The max iOS for an iPad is 6.1.3. iOS 6.1.4 is for iPhones only.

My iPad will not charge from the wall outlet or the USB. I also used three different chargers, as well as rebooting my iPad several times.

Then it's time to make an appointment at your Apple Genius Bar at your Apple Store. Apple will check it out and if it's defective and still in waranty (you don't say which model you have), it will be replaced.

My iPad will not charge and every time I charge it. It comes up with the iTunes icon and I will not charge, it is not a new I pad and the same charger I use for the I pad I use for my I phone and it will charge. What is wrong?

What exactlyare you seeing on the iPad's screen ? If it's the iTunes icon and a cable then that means that it's gone into recovery mode - you will need to connect it to your computer's iTunes and you should be able to use that to reset it back to factory defaults and you can then restore/resync your content to it.

My iPad will not charge off my cars USB audio socket any more, will light up and states NOT CHARGING in the top right hand corner? Is this normal? the USB will charge other devices.

I have made sure all my updates are current and they are. Does anyone have any suggestions or helful advice that my help. Thanks in advance.

Are you plugging it into a pc? If so it will not charge the iPad as there is not enough power try the back USB ports, may work.
If it isn't plugged into a pc and plugged into your socket could be faulty socket adapter.

I installed the new iOS 7.1.1 and now my iPad will not charge like it used to before the update ?

HT1435 hi there i have this problem with my ipod on the second picture which says "Pease Wait Very Low Battery" but it will not charge at all or turn on, sync with computer anybody any ideas.

Hi there I have an ipod classic which will not charge and keeps saying "Please Wait Very Low Battery" can anbody help me its just sad to see it go.

Normally it takes 2 to 4 hours to fully charge an iPod Battery, using a USB2.0 port or wall charger.
Even if the battery is dead, you can have it replaced at Apple Store for about US$60 or at any 3rd Party Ipod Service Center for less.

My iPad will not charge with the charger or plugged into my laptop

I Have an iPad Air that will not charge with the charger plugged into a socket or the MacBook?

IPad will not charge after IOS 7 update unless the brightness is dimmed,..Why?

I recently updated my 4th gen IPad 64Gb to ios7. Previous to the update I loved my iPad and it worked flawlessly. Since updating the iPad now will not charge unless I dim the brightness of the screen, and slowly when it does. Why? Is there a way to remedy this?

I do not know if it's iOS7 related or not. My 2 is still working. However, my first 2 was returned to best buy after the charging port on it died. So that can happen. ANd it happens with little to no warning. CHarges monday, doesn't on tuesday.
As far as I know the issues with 'unsigned' lightning devices is just the cable, not the power brick, but there's no official word (nor do I expect one)
Lightning cables have a little chip in them and if that chip isn't signed by Apple then your device kicks up an error but should still work.
However since this is an iPad 2, that's not the case since 2's use 30 pin chargers, not lightning.
Usually when a 2 doesn't charge, common troubleshooting is to swap out the charger, cable and outlet, to confirm or rule those out. Also to do the reset. (the soft reset that's holding down the sleep and home keys until it reboots). Also to look in and blow out the port in case there's some lint or such in there.
Usually those things fixes it. If not, then it could be the port.

OS xSnow Leopard will not upload on my mac pro currently at 10.5.8. I get as far as the restart section of the download then the driver tray opens. Can you help?

Having problems upgrading my Mac Pro 10.5.8 to OS X Snow Leopard upgrade that I bought from Apple Online. I get as far as "Computer will restart and then continue with upload". The problem is that after the restart takes place my driver draw opens and the Updrade doesn't continue. I've tried serveral times without success. Not sure what the problem is. Please Help?

Confused. 10.6 is DVD based. Only Lion and above are downloads.
And best install is not to upgrade. Do a clean install - on another drive.
Corrupt partition tables or bad sectors or no room to adjust the partitions or the directory is corrupt.
ERASE the drive if Repair Disk didn't work.
