Is a power transformer required for use in other countries or can you just use a plug adapter?

I'm flying to France tomorrow and don't wan't to bring or buy anything unnecessary. I have heard that some laptops don't need additional transformers to work over seas(just a plug addapter). Do you need a transformer for HP laptops?

No you just need a plug adapter. The AC "brick" is designed to accept 110-240 volts of current coming in and still put out the correct power to the laptop.

  • DVD+R DL - "failed to calibrate the power level required for this media"

    For the first time since owning our MBP (almost a year) I have tried to burn DVD dual layer discs. I get the error message that says the "device failed to calibrate the power level required for this media"
    I have searched the web and this discussion forum and see many people have the same situation.
    I am simply trying to burn 7GB of data in the finder onto my disc.
    I am running 10.5.2, and have tried both Fuji and Memorex discs with no success. I am a little ****** off since the discs aren't cheap...
    Do I need to get my DVD burner replaced or is this a software / media issue?
    Any help very much appreciated. (& the international settings tweak that worked for some did not work in my case.)

    I found the fix to this problem. I tried the trick with changing the languages and it didn't work for me. After hearing the success stories from other people using the language trick I realized that calling apple and getting my superdrive replaced won't do the trick. My superdrive burns CD and 4.7Gb DVD without any problems but when I try to burn DL it shows the message "failed to calibrate". Here's the temporary solution to the problem (it worked for me)
    Create a new account
    Change the language to something other than English (I speak Russian so Russian worked for me).
    I know that it may not work for some of you guys but give it a shot. Hopefully Apple will fix this software bug in the next update.

  • Does it mandatory to use Delta/WYE 3phase PDU for CRS1 8 slot deployment? Can we just use default single phase AC power-shelves?

    does it mandatory to use Delta/WYE 3phase PDU for CRS1 8 slot deployment? Can we just use default single phase AC power-shelves?

    The fixed power supplies (legacy / zone based system) require 3-phase AC-Delta/WYE.
    The modular power supplies do not use a zone based system and require a single phase. You can order a CRS PDU to convert 3-phase AC input (from power source) to single-phase AC input for the power shelf.

  • Is UDF required for this?!! or Can we manage with Node Functions?!!!

    HI Gurus,
    I have a requirement like below desc, Is UDF required for this?!! or Can we manage with Node Functions?!!!
    Source File: ( File )
    a) PO_TYPE
    b) Style1
    c) Style2
    Note: Style1 leads to Headernode and Style2 leads to ChildNode, Style1 and Style 2 are interconnected.
    Target File: ( Idoc )
    a) Header Node ( EHDRNDE)
    b) Child NOde ( CHLDNDE)
    And my question is.... I have to populate Header Node and Child Node in target side on certain conditions of the source file. they are;
    I) Whenver a different style1 comes in file...I have to create a Headernode for that in target file. Style1 can contain number of Style2 nodes with the same node. like
    Ex:
    i) Style1 -
    Style2a, Style2b, Style2c
    ii) Style1 ....... Style2aa, Style2ab.
    For this above requirement, I have to create corresponding target nodes for Header ( Style1 ) and as well as for Child ( Style2)
    for ex1: it should be one Header node in target and 3 corresponding child nodes
    for ex2 : It should be One Header Node and 2 child nodes
    For this requirement...can we use node functions....if it is...could you please help me.

    Hi,
    You can do it by using node function as well as UDF also.
    1) If your sequence is sorted and always come in sorted order only e.g. 1st come only style1 node and child node and then come all nodes from style 2 then u can use node function.
    2) for parent node use collpse context then remove context.
    3) for child node 1st differntiat according to your condition and then use split by value(value change)
    4) If occurance of style1 node and style2 node is not fixed then you don't have any option you have to write UDF.
    I think this will help you.
    Regards,
    Rohit.

    Yes, it works. Download the trial and see for yourself. Adobe never updates the system requirements after any version is released, so that is what was available last Sept. when PSE 13 was released.

  • Can I charge my iPad mini and/or my iPhone 4S from 220 volt outlets using just the correct plug adapter for the country.

    Can I charge my iPad mini and/or my iPhone 4S from 220 volt outlets using just the correct plug adapter for the country, without a power converter?

    Not staff or owner by a long shot.
    I just know that anecdotally I have seen people reporting issues with their mini's charging. Is there a real issue or not? I don't know. Not a day goes by that a person doesn't post here complaining that their iPad won't charge and it turns out that they're trying to do it via USB or with the iPhone block.
    But while there are a lot of user fixes sometimes it's good to have the pros take a look at things,and at the very least document that there has been an issue.
    the four main reasons an iPad won't charge (beyond being plugged into a USB port)
    Bad cable
    bad outlet
    bad brick
    rule those out and it leaves issue with the iPad.

  • HT201209 Can I purchase iTunes gift cards for people in other countries to use?

    Can I purchase iTunes gift cards for people in other countries to use? I have a brother that lives in Vietnam and I want to buy him a gift card that he can use there.  I've read the iTunes gift cards are country specific.

    What you have read is correct; gift cards are country specific. So only if iTunes cards are issued in Vietnam, and if they are if you can find a retailer there that sells such cards and would accept an out-of-country credit card, would you be able to purchase a gift card for your brother. The same would apply to any other country.
    Regards.

  • Does the iPhone 4s need a data plan inorder for "siri" to work or can you just use your local wifi?

    Does the iPhone 4s need a data plan inorder for "siri" to work or can you just use your local wifi?

    It can use both in all the commercials they are using wifi im trying to find out just how much Siri depends on data but so far I think it mainly uses it to pull info up and for some reason to dictate email but it does work on carrier data I guess it's just slower  so you don't neccersarily need a data plan in place or have to dig into it to use Siri If you have wifi close by

  • I am going to buy a time capsule it it will work on European 220v as the Mac Book Pro does.  Can anyone tell me if it does when you use a plug adapter.  Thanks

    Will the Time Capsule work on European 220v if it was bought in the US.  Do you need a transformer or just a plug adapter?  Thanks

    The Time Capsule will run on 100-240 volts and 50-60 Hz so you only need a plug adapter, not a transformer with this device.
    For more details, look under the Electrical heading on the specifications of the Time Capsule.

  • HT1657 I have rented a movie 8hours ago, and it will NOT play. The system also charged me twice, for the same movie! How can you help me please?

    I have rented a movie 8hours ago, and it will NOT play. The system also charged me twice, for the same movie! How can you help me please?

    For the film not playing, you can use the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that film and use the 'Report a Problem' link.
    Not sure whether you can request a refund for the double charge via the same link, if not then you can contact iTunes support here : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store
