Power converter and non-Apple Adapters

I am traveling to London and Paris next month. Do I actually need the power brick or can I use an adapter with USB cable? I am traveling with two iphones, and two cameras. I expect to have very few outlets.
Also has anyone used these non apple adapters? Can I charge more than one device at a time with any of these or anything else?

  • How do I transfer ring tones between ipad and non-apple phone using bluetooth

    Can I transfer ring tones between ipad and non-apple phone using bluetooth?

    No. iOS devices do not support file transfers between non-iOS devices over Bluetooth.
    They probably wouldn't work anyway, as iOS ringtones have to be in a specific format.

  • The Case of Missing ID3 Tags... and non-Apple devices, like the Sonos

    Ever since the debut of iTunes 6, devices other than my Mac and my iPod have been unable to find the ID3 tags associated with .mp3 files. If I rip a CD in iTunes 6 or 7, artist/album/track data (and album artwork) display properly in iTunes and on my iPod; but when I update my Sonos music library, for example, all it is able to see is the file name. So, for example, if I rip Jimi Hendrix's "Are You Experienced," the track "Purple Haze" shows up in iTunes correctly associated with "Hendrix" and "...Experienced." On the Sonos system, however, all it sees is the track "Purple Haze.mp3." No artist. No album. Ditto for placing one of these .mp3 files on a non-Apple mp3 player: track name only shows up. Bizarrely, if I rip CDs on an older PPC G4 running iTunes 4.0, and then import those files into either iTunes 6 or 7, the ID3 tags remain married to the files. Anyone have a solution to this vexing problem?

    Core Duo iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   2 Gigs SDRAM

    In the newer versions of itunes 6+7 (don't know about 5) iTunes by default will rename the file on the HD to match the info in the "Name" column of iTunes - this is true if you have the "Keep" option selected in iTunes prefs>Advanced>General.
    With iTunes 4 this was not true. I would use one of Dougs scripts to rename all my files on the HD to be Artist-Song Name. You can still do this in iTunes 6+7 if you turn off the "Keep" option or you don't edit any info in the id3 tag once you have run the script.
    I know nothing of the Sonos and other stuff - I can only think that is reading only the file sname and not the id3 tag info. If it doesn't have the capability of reading and displaying the id3 tag info then I think you are out of luck. iTunes is reading the id3 tag info.

  • TS1702 Safari, Maps, App Store, and Non Apple Apps crashing on IOS6

    Since upgrading to IOS 6, the majority of my apps are crashing after a few seconds, including Safari, App Store, I Books and also non apple apps like BBC News etc.
    I have:
    Reset
    Restored
    Tried the date and time change (not affective)
    I cant at the moment even add any new apps or reinstall as this crashes.
    This is so frustrating! Any one have a fix?
    Thanks, Nick

    Tried both .. and then some =( no glory.
    I got the onyx and ran that still crashing once loaded.
    Firefox is working great and other apps work that i use its just app store and safari.
    Really weird.
    I also re-patched 10.6.6
    Cache was cleared, verified
    Removed all plugins in safari folder
    clear all cache on the onyx program with all options checked including the dyld.
    Anyone have any suggestion. They would be greatly appreciated.

  • APEx '03 and Non-Apple Wireless Client Connection Problems

    Good morning. I have a 2003 vintage AirPort Extreme, running 5.5.1 firmware (due to the issues with the newer firmware discussed on this forum).
    --> Wired iMax
    My setup is DSL-->APEx--|
    --> Apple Wireless Clients
    --> Linksys w54 acting as a bridge
    In order to get the Linksys working in the first place, I had to remove the WEP, not a huge deal as we live in the boonies and no one within range of the APEx. I couldn't figure out how to get anything to work with Apple wireless security outside of the Family. I have it manually set to channel 1, and radio mode to G only.
    My problem basically is that non-Apple devices can see the SSID but cannot connect. The problem at hand are my kids' various PSPs & Ninendo DS's, and a little Windows CE netbook. Of course, none of these simple devices give anything helpful in terms of errors. Those three different devices all have their own version of the same error: See the SSID, try to connect, but fail.
    I'd like to figure out this problem, although the simpler solution might be to just buy another cheap Linksys on craiglist and use it for the non-Apple stuff.

    Bump?

  • IWork for apple AND non-apple computers? Compatible?

    Can I buy iWork for both my iMac and Macbook Air, AS WELL AS for my non-apple laptop? I was told that iWork is now compatible with non-apple computers but found contradictory info on forums. Thanks for any help with this.

    You can purchase individual iWork applications (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote) for download from the App Store within OS X. Apple is presently in an iWork beta for iCloud that in addition to working on OS X, will enable you to create and share .pages, .doc, and .pdf files on other platforms. No timeframe has been shared for beta exit, but it should be later this fall or just plain later.
    By example, I just went to my iCloud account within Firefox 23.0.1 and IE 10 on Windows 7. Because I had signed up for the iWork beta, the individual iWork apps showed up in these browsers. When I selected Pages, all of my prior Pages documents created on OS X were there. I could open these documents, add content, and they were automatically saved back to iCloud. I right-clicked on a document and had the option to download it to Windows 7 as a .doc or .pdf file. The .doc file opened in LibreOffice 4.1 Writer.
    On Fedora 18, same drill. Cautioned about Chrome 29, but worked anyway. The iWork for iCloud beta is particular about browser support (any platform) and may caution about certain unsupported features if you continue to use the offending browser.

  • ISight and non-Apple Apps

    How do I get a Mac with a built in iSight to work with other, non-Apple applications? How do I turn the dang thing on, and have it stay on without using iChat, Photobooth, or Quicktime?

    Hello Jim Ireland,
    How do I turn it on, raw.
    You don't. Unlike external iSight, *a properly functioning built-in iSight* is always on (although perhaps in standby mode) when your Mac is on. To verify that your iSight is working, see Apple's Technical article: How to Troubleshoot iSight.
    ... I turn on the iSight through an application, it shuts off as soon as I try to use it through...
    While you can have more than one iSight enabled app open simultaneously, as explained in this linked Apple technical document, iSight can be used by one application at a time.
    Some websites with webcam functions won't control the iSight.
    No websites can control the iSight. Only software does, but you may be attempting to describe how your browser (software app) controls it when you visit video-enabled websites.
    Most video-enabled websites allow your browser software to use your built-in iSight via a Flash plug-in (unless your iSight is already in use by a different app.) If your iSight is working with Apple's apps but you are still having difficulty with a video-enabled website while no other apps are using iSight, your browswer's Flash plug-in settings may need to be configured to allow your iSight to function with there. 
    To determine whether this is your problem, navigate to the video website of interest. If you do not immediately see a pop-up "Adobe Flash Player Settings" dialog box, put your mouse pointer over the video window that is playing and control-click. This should open the dialog box.
    Adjust the "Settings" in the Flash dialog box as follows:
    • Click on the webcam icon.
    • Select the "USB Video Class Video" Camera setting.
     (External iSight users would need to set the webcam camera setting to "IIDC Firewire Video".)
    • You can then click on the microphone icon to set your "Microphone," "Record Volume," and "Reduce Echo" settings.
    • You should also click the privacy icon and verify that the "Allow" button is selected.  If "Deny" is selected, you will not be able to send or recored video or audio.
    • Close the dialog box and see if the video website works for you now.
    If the above does not solve your problem, see the website help or FAQ section to determine how to make this site work with your system. Many live video sites have unique requirements. The FAQs or Help links at their sites should give you the best answers for your compatibility, configuration, and operating questions concerning their particular operations. Some of these sites offer email or live chat technical support or their own dedicated user Discussions fora to provide help using their particular websites.

  • IChat and non-Apple built in cameras

  • Converting WMV and non apple files on the net

    I'm very new to apple, and I love my new machine, however, I cannot open any microsoft based files eg. wmv files on the internet and I thought that the conversion would be much simpler. I called tec support and was directed to flip4mac.com, however I couldn't install the wmv converter onto the macbook, has anyone figured this out??
    Please Help
    Drew

    Flip4mac.com will have a Universal version of their plugin soon. It is the best option as it will run natively on the Intel chip.
    You might be able to find an old version of Windows Media Player for the Mac but it is being discontinued.

  • Best power performance AND everydayusable apple setup

    Hello, didnt really know hwere to post this guess it more belong under like "computers" generally, 
    but! For a while... 
        (-THE LONGER VERSION) :
    No whait!, let me start where it all began, 2009, a december (erhh.. iii think? Hwatever!) litlle me hwere nearly Totally blank to the computer world. And suddenly it stood there on the table, a shining (it was shining back there) new "hp pavillion entertainment pc" with its smell of fresh plastic mixed hwith the strong smell from the cardboardbox, remember it as if it were yesterday
    ... Since then.... I have today a good solid pc knowing! (at more advance level cmd,bott menu, recovery, blah, blah... NERD!) here at the last awhile, ive prommised to make a lot! A lot of video projects!
    (okay 2, but some big ones!) avchd multilayer 2 hours!!!! 
    So the poor hp laptop -dual core i2 4gb ram, has been begged to it knees! And simply cant handle it of course! and it have just trough time benn loaded with lots of crap, and is extremly noisy, heat, slow, anoying = unusable!
    SO hwat i need is...
        (-THE SHORTER) :
    A computer setup that will EASILY! could handle stuff like that  (avchd, multilayer, 2 hours project) -and simmilar. A total power machine! But Im tired of windows! And ugly cheap looking design! The times have changed and i change with them!
    NOW I WANT APPLE!! 
    But but but... Hwat should i get????
    1. Im NOT a billionare!
    2. I repeat: NOT a billionare!
    3. I also need portability for every day use beyond the hardcore creative editing and use
    AT LAST:
     i saw in front of me this genius plan... With a macbook pro, a tuned one, with as much of ram,cpu,gpu, and everything else as it can posibble have
    -the perfect combination of transportabillity, everydayuse and total power!
    When it gets combine with,
    A cinemadisplay
    A extra keyboard
    And a extra magic mouse
    And this power macbook pro, with screen, mouse, and keyboard i've found a really good offer at.
    MY ACTUAL QUESTION.... :
    Now it is yours turn to please! be creative! Please! Hwat does all you genius heads! think and say?
    WILL A super tuned MACBBOK PRO COMBINED WITH ACCESSORIES, AT ALL, BE ABLE TO REPLACE A STRONG MAC PRO, OR AT LEAST BE MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR REALLY HEAVY STUFF? And if yes, HOW strong actually (ram,cpu,gpu...) will it need to have to be "more than enough"?
    If no, what would all of  you then suggest that is perfect in relation to everything?

    Unless you know for sure that you are not going to use temporal effects or render to a codec that works with MP rendering turned on (Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously) then turn it off. It's better than it was in previous versions but still can cause tremendous delays and even system hangups if you throw in an incompatible effect or render to an incompatible codec.
    Set your ram used by other applications to an even number in the top field -- always, and if you do decide to use MP rendering I have a question about your choice for ram allocation there. How many processors are "Actually Used?" I'm getting zero for Other Applications and Zero for AE. You need to change things here. If you cannot allocate an even number of CPU's to AE then don't bother. If you are going to use MP rendering - run a bunch of tests when you have processors assigned to the process and you are leaving at least 2 to other apps and the minimum RAM assigned in MP is an even number. Otherwise, throw 2 or 4 GB of your available ram to other apps at the top and turn off MP.
    The location of your disk cache can be anywhere you like. I always pick a big fast drive with lots of space that is not the same as my system drive or the source footage drive unless I have no other options.

  • HT4061 The phone exhausted power.  I plugged in my charger and I am getting the following response:  Power on and the apple icon is visible, it is quickly replaced by a blue screen for about 1 second andf then black screen with no other activity.  What is

    The power was exhausted on my Iphone 5S.  I plugged it into my charger and turned it on.  The apple icon comes on briefly followed by a blue screen for about 1.5 seconds andf then goes black.  What has happened?

    Leave the device connected to power for about 30 minutes.
    Then, disconnect from power, and turn the device on.  If no response, then press and hold both the Home button and Sleep/Wake button down for about 15-20 seconds.  Make sure it is not plugged in while doing this.
    See what happens.

  • Mac Pro and non apple displays

    hello all.
    I used to have a dell display (really cheap TN non ultrasharp) and i was not happy with it at all. when connected to my mac i would get visible diagonal rippling lines through the display especially when viewing dark colours. however this was fine when i used boot camp windows. many from the discussion suggested that it was because mac likes IPS panels where the cheap brands use TN. so i got me a 20 in apple cinema display and i love it!. after three years i would love to upgrade to bigger display thats flexible, (HDCP and more connections) and not break my bank. at the moment im looking at dell again (sigh) the new ultra-sharp u2311h (http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/products/Displays/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=e n&cs=19&sku=320-9270) this panel features IPS panel similar to previous ultra sharp models that had exact panels as the apple cinema displays. i would love to hear some opinions and tips.
    and i would especially love to hear form ultra sharp users and their thoughts / experience. please please let me know.

    When I said that NEC displays were much better than Dell's I was referring to the former's Multisync "LCD" range, which use different panels to their "EA" models.
    "EA" models are classified as "office monitors" by NEC, whereas "LCD" models are "high end", and consequently are more expensive.
    I have no idea how the NEC Multisync EA231WMi compares against the Dell Ultrasharp U2311H, but there is a lot more to a display than sharing the same panel. Although their displays are built around the same panel, NEC and Dell would be using different technology inside, and that is where the former has the advantage, because Dell does not "manufacture" high end/professional monitors.
    Although Dell Ultrasharp monitors have received several good reviews, particularly with regard to value for money, they are not in the same league as NEC, EIZO, or LaCie, particularly where colour accuracy is paramount, and that is one of the reasons why they are usually much cheaper.
    Some time before I purchased my NEC 30" display, Macworld UK published a review covering several 24" to 27" displays, including models from NEC, EIZO, LaCie, Dell and Samsung. The 26" LaCie model used the same H-IPS panel as the 26"NEC, but it was the NEC which walked away with the 5 star "Best Buy" award. The Dell 27" was judged to be value for money, but fell down on colour accuracy.
    For further endorsement of the quality of NEC's "LCD" range see:
    http://www.pcpro.co.uk/reviews/monitors/242010/nec-multisync-lcd3090wqxi
    The point I am trying to make is that NEC have the expertise to produce the above exceptional quality display, whereas Dell do not. Doubtless, some of that expertise filters down to models in other NEC ranges. The panel might be the same, but the technology inside the display will most certainly be different between the two companies.
    You pay your money, and you take your choice!
    Regards,
    Bill

  • Extending wi-fi network with apple and non-apple routers

    I am trying (remotely) to hep my family set up their LAN network so that all of their devices are on the same modem instead of on two modems.  The new modem that Comcast provided them is an Arris TG862 (combo modem/router) and they already have an Airport Extreme Time Capsule and an Airport Express.  They also have an iMac and 2 ipads that need to connect wirelessly, and the network needs to be extended way to the other side of the house.  There are two configurations that I think will work:  can someone confirm for me that both of these would work?  And am I right in thinking that the airport express cannot extend the network wirelessly if the airport extreme is not the primary base station?  Thanks!
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/8glryd7x2utkwu2/Sho%27s%20Modem%20Setup%20Guide.pdf

    If the TG862 and the Airport Extreme have to be located next to each other, should I turn off the TG862's wireless network?
    If they are going to be near each other, than yes, you will want to disable the Arris' wireless radio.
    And how do I do that?
    Off-hand I wouldn't know. However, you should be able to download a copy of the user's guide for this device. Most likely it will have a web-based administrator interface. Within this interface you should find options to configure its wireless radio.

  • Wireless keyboards and non apple devices

    Is there any way to pair an apple wireless keyboard to another bluetooth device.
    The device i am using recognizes the keyboard, but when it asks for a passcode i am stumped. I tried using the passcode generated by the mac i have, but it is clear after a couple tries that it is randomy generated each time a pairing is recognized.
    Any thoughtts or solutions much appreciated.
