I bought my Macbook in the US but will be traveling to the UK this summer. Do I need to buy a new charger/adapter?

I purchased my MacBook 3 years ago in the US. I will be in the UK for 8 weeks this summer. Can I use the charger that came with the laptop when I bought it? Do I need to purchase a new charger or some sort of adapter?
THANKS!

The AC adaptor will auto-switch.  But you will need a plug adaptor such as the one in the World Travel Kit from Apple or from the travel area of a department store or a AAA travel center.

  • Do I need to buy a new charger for my MacBook Pro or have it check at apple store?

    My MacBook Pro charger won't charge. Do I need to buy a new one or have it check at apple store? Please advice anyone?

    Take the computer with the charger to the Apple store and have it checked.

  • I don't understandwhy i need to buy a new charger cable for my iphone 5 every week. why can't you make a normal cable, that doesn't stop working? i csn't spend so much money on buying new cablesall the time.

    these cable are so delicate that after one week of use they break down. i can't spend all my money on buying them. moreover, last week it broke down on saturday eve so i was stuck untill tuseday without a phone.
    i have to say that this compan is so rude, and it took me like an hour to sign in and write this complain, and i'm not even sure if it's the right place to wright this sort of things.
    apple's customer service is the wort customer service in the world.

    I don't understand why you need to buy a new one every week. I've had my iPhnoe 5 for almost a year, never had a problem with the cable. In addition, your phone is can't be more than a year old. Therefore, unless you're damaging them, your cable is under warranty and Apple will replace it. Perhaps you should have tried actually availing yourself of Apple's customer service before complaining about it.
    Best of luck.

    I have the same problem and it only affects the one song, everything else syncs

  • Sound no longer comes out of the speakers but will come out of the headphones on a m6-1035dx

    I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on an HP Pavilion m6-1035dx. Sound still comes out of the headphones but won't come out of the main speakers. I tried the audio troubleshoot buttom and it couldn't detect the problem. I also tried two headphones and neither work. While i was trying to test sounds on skype application I could hear the sounds on speakers for a very short time. Please Help!!

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    First, temporarily uninstall Skype and when this has completed, restart the notebook.
    Next, download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp56501-57000/sp5695​3.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu.  Select the Bios option ( usually f10 ).  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load, then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, restart the notebook again.
    If it now works Ok, reinstall Skype

  • When I try to open Firefox, it shows in the tray, but will not open to desktop. This just started recently, and I removed Firefox and reinstalled it, to no avail.

    I am afraid Spy Bot might have removed something necessary . . .

    Consider the Mcrosoft Office:Mac forums as well:

    Here is an MS page that deals with that error message:

  • I have just bought a MacBook Air in Madrid, but the keyboard types ç when I hit -, for example, when I hit shift for the bracket sign I get *. How can I re-set it to type what I see on the keys.

    I have just bought a MacBook Air in Madrid, but the keyboard types, for example, ¿ when I hit shift and the semi-colon key, and = when I hit the ! key. What do I have to do to reset it to function normally?

    Go>Preferences>Language & Text>Input Sources
    Click off the flags of the countries you want--like if you need a British keyboard that has a British pound symbol, pick that one.
    When you're done picking, them leave preferences. Now, in the upper right-hand corner of your computer, next to the date, you'll see a little flag. Click on that. You'll see all the flags you picked. Choose the one you want. Your keyboard will now give you the symbols, letters, etc. that you would get if you'd bought the computer in that country.

  • My MacBook Pro that is running on 10.6.8 won't update software so that iTunes connects to my iphone 6. Problem is that when I go to update, it restarts the computer but never updates any of the software.

    My MacBook Pro that is running on Mac OS X 10.6.8 won't update software that I need in order to download the newest iTunes software to connect to my iPhone 6. Problem is that when I go to update, it restarts the computer but never updates any of the software.

    In addition to Stedman's spot-on reply --
    When you buy an upgrade disk, all updates in that OS can be found on Software Update.
    For instance, I bought Snow Leopard at 10.6.
    All other updates have been free and downloadable.  So I'm not a 10.6.7.
    10.4 (Tiger) went to 10.4.11.
    10.5 (Leopard) went to 1.5.8
    10.6(Snow Leopard) is currently at 10.6.7.
    Now, when Lion come out (the next major upgrade of OSX), I will have to pay to go to 10.7.
    After that, updates are free til 10.8 comes out.

  • HT1296 How do I back up the calendar and contacts from my iPhone5 to my new macbook pro(10.8.3)? I have backed up the phone, but it does not transfer the calendar or the contacts. If I check them in the sync area and the back up the phone again...

    How do I back up the calendar and contacts from my iPhone5 to my new macbook pro(10.8.3)? I have backed up the phone, but it does not transfer the calendar or the contacts. If I check them in the sync area and then back up the phone again will they transfer or be erased? I am a bit gun shy since my previous macbook pro committed suicide and I lost a ton of info there.

    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer.

  • We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

    We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?

    To clarify for anyone who is still having any problems doing this.
    1. Unlock your phone with the carrier ( I know the process will work if it is jail broken but I am assuming you dont want to void the warranty on your phone) NOTE: even if you purchased the phone outright at Wal-Mart it is still locked to ATT so you will have to unlock the phone.  If it's already unlocked skip to step 2.  This works and will work even if you update the phone. 
    1a Here is the link to unlock a ATT iphone. Simply follow the instructions https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
    2. Get a T- mobile SIM. Even if you don't want the service, if you feign interest, they will send you one for free or 99cents. If you need it now you can get one at a T-mobile store too.
    3. Once you have both your Straight talk SIM and your T-mobile SIM follow these instructions:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFFf5uqk18M
    4. If you have any remaining questions look at all the responses posted previously on this thread or check out the Howard Forums Wiki: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/Straight_Talk_iPhone
    Everything should work flawlessly at this point.  If not let me know and I'm happy to help when I can.  I hope this makes doing this very easy for everyone in the future. God Bless -J

    My question is I want to buy MacBook Pro special specifications but found several languages ​​at the option of the keyboard I want a picture if you choose the keyboard language is Arabic as well please, I want a picture of the plate you include the keyboard letters in Arabic, English or Arabic only together?

    The only photo I could find of a 'genuine' Apple Arabic keyboard (NOT a keyboard cover/skin):
    It's from an older MacBook, it looks like, but I imagine that the MacBook Pro keybaord would be similar.
