No charger in the box

so I get my nice shiny new ipod 80GB
But Whats This?
no charger in the box? (the last ipod I bought came with one?)
so check the website and it's gonna be another £19 for the mains wall charger, ok I think, bit of a pain but I suppose I'll have to buy one
But Whats This?
I'm told it simply plugs into any wall socket, great!
unless of course you dont live in the land of uncle sam
then it's another £29 of the Queens Sterling for the Apple World Travel Adapter Kit!
not happy!

you can charge the battery off the USB from the computer
also, when you buy the wall charger in the Apple online store of your country (eg. UK, Australia etc.) i think it comes with the adapter for that country
... so (guessing you are from the UK) if u bought it at http://www.apple.com/uk/ then u would get the UK version
u might have to double check that tho...
(if not, buy it in store.. those ones have the right adapter)

IPad Mini... Is it the wrong charger in the box for the task involved?

It seems the 5 Watt charger in the box isn't really man enough for the job? Yes it chargers the iPad mini... but at a snails pace! And just manages to creep in a charge if the Cellular network is still active... It struggles away at about 10% increase in battery for every couple of hours it's stuck sucking juice out the wall socket! Found I can increase the rate of charging by putting in Aircraft Mode... but even so its clearly not the best charger to of supplied?
I've now purchased a 12 Watt wall charger from the Apple Store so the tech guys in store seem to think it'll improve the charging time... As it seem the mini will happily suck away the juice at 10 Watts? So fingers crossed it'll speed things up... I hope so!
If you check out the spec for the 5 Watt wall changer as supplied in the box it covers iPod's iPhones and the iPad Mini... just seems odd to supply a 5 Watt charger when you then try out USB power sources like a car charger that'll supply the 5 Watts but the iPad Mini just displays the 'connected not charging' message next to the battery icon...
And in any case both the 5 Watt & 12 Watt chargers retail for the same price in store... So why not supply the proper tool for the job in the box?
So I've got more testing to do to see if the new 12 Watt kicks life into the process?
Only top tip to speed up a cellular IPad Mini is to switch to Aircraft Mode or power off?

There you go huntfor... If like you wanted you'd prefer to shop for it all on the apple store then go for these two chargers...
The key to the car charger is to check the specification details... It needs to be 2.1 amps 10 watts... It's ashame you can get the dual jolt griffin in the US online store... As as charger it give you two USB ports both able to supply charger to 2 iPads if you want it to... Some dual charger have one of each capacity ports ie 1x 2.1 amps 10 watt and 1x 1amp 5 watt...
And your best investment with be the 12 watt wall socket charger... Now that little beast will kick *** when it comes to charging you iPad Mini... As I truly don't understand why they ship it with a 5 watt charger... The one in the box barely keeps it stood still if its doing any kind of tasking whilst plugged in...
The only other thing I'd suggest if you want to be fully kitted out is an additional cable so that you can keep one indoors and the spare in the car with the charger?

And the proper cover with the sleep magnets saves power so they're worth it too!

Hope the information helps? And enjoy the Mini! It's a pretty cool bit of kit! : )

Hello, somebody borrowed my iP5 charger., and I can't notice if he returned the original charger of my iPhone. Is there any serial number of charger inside the box.

Rapsanjo,
No, according to varjak paw: Re: Does your Charger have a ID number attached to it that your phone will Save?

Is there a way to have longer battery life on a 4s iPhone? Brand new iPhone 4s out of the box I have to charge twice a day.

Absolutely. Search this forum or look in the "More Like This" box to your right.

When I take my phone off charge in the morning I get an info box on the front which has the sound trumpet icon with a line through it and the word Mute. The only way to get rid of it is to reboot the phone any ideas as to how I can stop this happening?

Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
This happens the same whenever I try to install.
To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
My plugin is still showing as out of date.
Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.

Out of the box my new Tablet Z2 wont take anny charge..

Hi!
Out of the box my new Tablet Z2 don't take any charge. I have charged it a few of hours now but the charging LED don't turn on.
I have tested to charge my phone with the sony charger provided within the box and it works.
I have also tested to charge with an other USB cabel but that dont seem to work either.
Thanks for your help! // Oscar

Before taking it back to the store you could just try to press and hold the power button and volume up at the same time until the tablet vibrates. Then try to start it up as normal again. If it still doesn't start, I would suggest that you follow the advice above and take it back to the store.

Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different plug sockets, different plugs/cables, help

Just got a new IPAD3, straight out of the box, but I cant charge it, I have tried with the power plug and cable out of the box that came with it but no joy, i have tried resetting the iPad but still no joy, have tried different mains plug sockets around the house with no joy, I have tried different USB mains plugs but again no joy, I tried using my new iPad cable into the USB port of my MacBook Pro laptop but still no joy, then, I tried using my old iPod classic cable into my MacBook Pro and that worked, so I have a way of charging my new iPad3 but its not practical as i have to take my MacBook Pro everywhere if I want to charge it which kind of defeats the object of having an iPad, has anybody experienced anything similar and how was it fixed? can anybody help me please...

Grumpy Gator,
Please note it did say at the store's discretion, but people have actually been able to return it to the on-line store. (I only saw a couple who tried.)
And given the outcry, I would think Apple might have other Apple stores join in. Just in case, though, if you can, you might bring it in today.
If it's an ARS, my guess is they can stick to their 14 day return. Apple cannot force them to do it. SO if it's not bought directly from Apple, and it's past the 14 day deal, I'd bring it in to the store today if you have one. When I gave people the cnet.com site, I gave it so people could read it and know only Apple had made the decision for Apple. And I suggested to some that an Apple reseller would probably stick with their own return policy.
Because Arnie had just bought his, he should be able to return it to Apple or an ARS because an ARS has to have some kind of full refund or at least return for credit within 7 or 14 days of purchase.
Hope this helps.

HT4060 Ipad 3 Fresh out of the box today, simply does not charge. Thoughts? (other than take it back to apple)

Ipad 3 Fresh out of the box today, simply does not charge. Thoughts? (other than take it back to apple)

If it is just out of the box, I would take it straight back to Apple and ask them to fix it.
Why should you have to mess around with fixing a device?

How long is the charger that comes in the box?

I'm going to get an iPad 2 and I am going to get an adapter for the charger, but I wanted to know how long the charger that comes in the box so I know if I should get the little box adapter or the six-foot long adapter.

Sorry, misunderstood
Yes the cable is 1m long. And if its a charger itself it should work fine

Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it first?

Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it up fully before you can use it. I do not want to damage the laptop by misusing the battery.

Attach the charger and start charging the battery to 100%. The good news is that after you have connected the charger, you may start using the MBP as well.
Ciao.

My iPod shuffle, which I prchased in 2009 only worked for a short time so I put it back in the box and just recently took it out. I will not charge and the power light does not come on. It was faulty from the start and thought I was out the money I paid.

My iPod shuffle only worked for a short time. It will not charge and the power light does not come on. Bought it in 2009. Put it back in the box and in my desk. Recently tried to get it to work again but no luck. Anyone else have this problem? Very disappointed with the product although my wifes work perfectly.

Can't say I haven't done the same kind of thing...keep finding things I had every intention of...
If you have the chance stop by an Apple Retail store and talk to them about it...they often work deals for replacement of out of warranty non-working items for prices around half price. Won't hurt to stop by and see what they will do for you.

I plug my 1 month old iPad mini retina into a uk plug socket using the out of the box charger, it charged from 0-27% in 3 hours and now refuses to charge at all. Any ideas are more than welcome!!!

I plugged my iPad Mini Retina in to charge this morning in a UK plug socket using the official out of the box charger.
It charged from 0-27% in roughly 3 hours.
I have come home to find it is not charging at all, when turned off when I plug the powered cable in it does turn on as if it is receiving power but it does not charge.
It is 1 month old and hasn't experienced heavy usage as such.

Thanks Sig. The information is here: Anything useful stand out?

When I purchase a Car GPS are these units ready to go out of the box (once charged)?

I would like to know when I purchase a car GPS system (Garmin or Tomtom) if they are ready to be used out of the box, once they are charged ?
Or do they require any additional programming, map installations or logins?

Hi Eveready,
Yes, it's pretty much ready to go. Plug it into the cigarette lighter. I would recommend that you update the maps as soon after purchase as possible, while it's still free from whichever brand you bought.
Good luck and you won't get lost ever again!

Just downloaded the newest version of itunes as of 1/31/14 and suddenly after years of my nano 5th gen working fine is rejected by itunes. On top of that it ejects it and will not let it charge. The nano works fine besides and charges via x-box or plug in

I was working through the troubleshooter - looks like there is no driver for the nano.
