Is it possible to use the firewire power adapter for ipod to charge an Ipad

There is information everywhere that the Ipad doesn't charge with low power adapters.
The first power adapter I received with my first Ipod was the firewire power adapter and it allows intensities even higher than the 10 W Ipad adapter.
Could this old adapter be used with Ipad
Model n. A1070 output 12V 6.7 A if I believe what is written on it.

You should only use a USB-type charger for the ipad. Any other charger is risking damage to the ipad.
The ipad uses 5Volts at 2 amps for best charging. This is why it came with the wall charger.
You can charge it with any 5 Volt USB charger as long as the output amps is approximately 1 amp or more. If the amps rating on the charger is less than 2 amps, it will charge slower, but it is safe. The ipad will only draw the current it requires, but any voltage higher than 5 volts is risking damage to the ipad.
Hope this helps.

  • Using the Firewire power cord for transfers

    I have a 20 GB, fourth generation, iPod. It came with a USB adaptor for transfers and a firewire adaptor for charging. The firewire cable plugs into a charging block which connects to an electrical outlet. Is it possible to disconnect the firewire cable from the charging block and use it as a normal firewire cable for transfers? I ask because I have a front mounted Firewire port on my PC, but no available USB port. TIA

    Semantics? Well not really. If you ask a question
    here about a usb adaptor, others will think you are
    referring to the power adaptor, not a usb cable which
    "connects" a usb port to a dock connector rather than
    "adapts".
    Yes, semantics. And yes, the Firewire to iPod dock connector, and the USB to iPod dock connector are, in fact, adaptor cables. Just because Apple may not use the term doesn't change what they are. Even Apple refers to their power adaptors as "power adaptors", or "charging blocks", USB or not. I never used the word "power", when referring to them so "adaptor" still applies.
    Do a search for USB adaptor cables and you will find quite a diversity of products yet few, if any, include any form of power supply.
    There are 4 pin and 6 pin firewire cables. Apple
    provides the 6 pin variety which transfers both data
    and power.
    You do have the 6 pin port on your computer?
    Of course.

    I don't know about that for sure, but my guess is that it won't matter.  Battery technology today is much better.   You should follow Apples battery tips here:

    My new iPad gives me Not charging sign when I use the 10W power adapter comes with, and even I can't connect it to iTunes in my Macbook Air, windows XP, or windows7 laptops. I tried everything apple support provided but again nothing.
    So, I'm open for suggestions.

    I would try another charger and cable.
    If that doesn't fix the problem, I'd take it back to the seller for replacement.

  • Apple FireWire Power Adapter and iPod Classic

    I just looked through the user guide, and it doesn't mention anything positive or negative about using the Apple FireWire Power Adapter that came with my 3G iPod. Any chance I'm going to fry my new iPod if I try charging it with the Firewire Power Adapter?
    Thanks,

    No, you will not fry your new iPod.

  • Is it possible to use the same OSSO/OID for multiple R11 and R12 instances?

    Hello guru's,
    We have multiple R11and R12 instances that should be configured for Oracle SSO 10.1.4.3. For OID, we are still trying to decide between OID 10.1.4.3, or OID 11g. OAM is not an option because we also also need OSSO integration with Siteminder. We will also need to SSO-enable Discoverer an Forms.
    I have successfully configured SSO for a single-instance EBS R12, but not for multiple instances, let alone include R11 and other components into the mix.
    Do you have any special tips, guidance or lessons learned when SSO-enabling multiple instances into the same SSO/OID?
    Thanks!
    Maria

    Interestingly, the article talks about using the same SSO/OID for EBS, JD Edwards, Peoplesoft multiple R11 instances, but did not mention 'multiple EBS versions'. Am I just being picky or there was a reason for it not being mentioned?In Steven Chan blog (in the same link), see the following:
    Comprehensive Single Sign-On Solution+
    If you have one or more E-Business Suite Release 11i instances and are tired of maintaining users separately for each environment, you can create a central OracleAS 10g environment and manage all 11i users in one place.
    If you have a combination of PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, and the E-Business Suite in your organization, you can use OracleAS 10g to manage users for all three environments centrally.
    If you have a combination of the E-Business Suite and custom applications based on Oracle databases or OracleAS 10g technology, you can use OracleAS 10g to manage users for all applications in a single place.
    Thanks,
    Hussein

  • Is this the right power adapter for an 11" MBA?

    My wife has an 11" MBA with model number A1370. The battery is dead so I can't check the exact model identifier. The thin cable on the power adapter has worn out where it enters the brick (which is incredible since she never ever wraps the cable around the brick) so she needs a new adapter.
    This Dutch Apple Store page has three that look similar to hers, which has the L-shaped magsafe. Am I right in believing that the 45W version will fit all A1370 models?
    Many TIA

  • Belkin Power Adapter for iPod mini

    I wanted a power adapter for my mini and of course, after X'mas, every store in town was out of stock for the Apple adapter. But the guy told me the Belkin Power Pack for the iPod Shuffle also works for other iPods. I bought it and thought I'd give it a whorl. But I wanted to make sure it's ok to use on my mini before I plug it into my ipod. I've done research online but I can't seem to find anything on it. So can anyone tell me if the Belkin Power Pack for the iPod Shuffle is also compatible with my iPod mini (2nd gen)? Were there any problems with using the shuffle power pack to charge the mini??
    Thanks!

    i think you should really post your own topic in the forums so that we can keep these threads specific to a topic and you get more attention for your topic and you should really try to post with better english next time with capitals and more than just one long sentence that is very hard to read.

  • Using the firewire 800 port for my firewire 400 devices

    I will be purchasing, at long last, a new mac mini to replace my faithful and well behaved G4 mac mini. I have a 20" cinema display and an external firewire 400 backup drive with the same form factor that sits below the mini. I would like to continue to use these peripherals as well as my video camera DV out. Ideally, it would be cool to have a FW800 hub that had both 800 and 400 places to plug my peripherals, but I don't see that available. Should I get a hub and adaptors for the fw400 components I want to add, or use the hard drive with an adaptor to the mini, then use the FWports on the drive for the monitor, and whatever else I want, thereby using the drive as a hub...
    Any advice to this ignorant question would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Since Firewire 400 devices still operate at Firewire 400 speeds regardless of whether or not they are connected by adapter to Firewire 800 ports, the best thing to do is just get a Firewire 800 to 400 adapter, and attach it to a Firewire 400 hub known to be able to do all the functions you desire.
    Note, migrating to Intel Macs from PowerPC Macs is not as easy as the Migration Assistant, as this user tip explains:

    No.
    The cord which you use to connect the iPod to your computer can be connected from the iPod to the power adapter.
