Recommendations for Power Adapter - itouch 4G?

Just got a itouch 4G. Are there any non-Apple power adapters available for this? Apple's $30 price tag is way too much money!
Thanks,
-Bob

Just look around. Any AC adopter that says it works for the iPhone will work on the iPod Touch. Some come with the dock adopter and for some you need to use the dick connector that came with the iPad Touch.
Thanks! I ended up trying the adaptor that can with my Nook and it works as well.

Asking for power adapter replacement

How to order for replacement of power adapter for my WRT160N router?
From forum thread
http://linksys.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/linksys.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=20899
I can order a replacement of my supplied power adapter (MU06-6120050-C5) with a new one (PS-WRT160N-V3.2-E) because my original one must be connected first to the power outlet before being connected to the router. That conditiongave me a problembecause everytime I have power failure, I need to manually disconnect my router and then reconnect it to the power adapter, otherwise my router won't function.
So, how is the process to order for power adapter replacement?

I think you need to contact linksys to get the replacement.

HP Docking Station EN488AA - part number for power adapter

Hi,
I have a HP Compaq nx8220 notebook, with a HP Docking Station (EN488AA).
Unfortunately I have lost the power supply for the docking station.
I still have the power supply for the notebook itself (393955-001) but it does not plug in to the docking station. It is the correct voltage but only 90W instead of 120W, and the connector is the wrong size.
I've been looking online for the part number for the correct replacement power supply for the dock, but became very confused when I found sites advertising the same replacement part for both the nx8220 and the EN488AA when clearly they are different because the plugs don't match. None specify the plug size so I don't know which is which.
Can anyone help me identify the correct replacement part? Or better still, is there a plug adapter available so I can use my existing power supply for the dock too?
Attached are two photos - the plug from the power adapter next to the inlet of the notebook (fits) and the dock (doesn't fit).
Thanks,
EddieD97
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The pin in picture looks liek a 5mm pin and one one on docking station is a smart pin. So you would need something like the one in picture in this link.
In the picture observe the component in left hand bottom corner.

I would say, take the adaptor to store and get one.
Wish you luck,

Looking for Power adapter for 23"

I have this beautiful 23 Cinema display just looking at me wondering why I don't plug it in. Well....
I got a great deal off Ebay but it didn't come with the white box that connects the AC / wall cord into the monitor [the seller was upfront]. My local shops says they are on back order and it will be two weeks.
If anyone has an extra one, even if used, I will pay you for it. Thanks for reading, have a great day.

Ask your local shop whether they can get you the power adapter for the Cinema Display 30-inch. Although slightly larger in size and power capacity (160 watt vs 90 watt) it is backward compatible and works great. If you're anxious to get up and running then that is the way to do it.

Wiring for Power adapter?

I have a 90w power adapter from an older notebook that will work with my HP DV5-1015nr. I transport my notebook between home and office. I'd like to utilize the older power brick, so that I won't need to transport a power brick back and forth. The tips on both adapters, of course, are of a different diameter.
My multi-tester identifies that the tip is hot for both adapters. The problem I have is that the older power brick has two wires: core wire (+) and shield (-), and the newer power adapter has three wires: shield that is connected to the core of tip (+), black that is connected to outer part of cylindrical shaft that must be the ground, and white connected to inner part of cylindrical shaft (also negative?).
So do the black and white wires on the newer adapter need to be soldered to the shield on the older one?

Usually when there are three wires and the plug has 3 pins to the outlet then,one is positive the other negative and the third is ground.
And my guess that the main concern to HP not providing the information on something as simple as a charger is so that they cannot end up beng held liable for either damage to the decice or person should Mr. Less Than Average Joe mess up the information and electrocute himself or case something to brst into flames Renault ng in a law suit. Case and point the lady who bought a coffee from McDonalds and promptly dumped it in her lap then sued for not being warned. She got $50,000 for that. Same things with choclate bar warnings about trace amounts of nuts, etc... so whereas I too get the frustration I understand their unwilingness to help.

Video Card Recommendation for Power Mac G5 Quad

Can anyone recommend a video card upgrade for my Power Mac G5 Quad?
I am now running the nVIDIA GeForce 6600 card that came in the machine, but I'm wondering how much performance increase I'll see with a large image library in Aperture if I upgrade. I'm interested in all comments.
Also, is there a "medium" upgrade and a "kick-***" upgrade?
Thanks!
G5 Quad / 4.5GB Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I hate to say it: At the moment there is no graphics card upgrade available for the G5 Quad and the other PCI-Express Power Macs. There are a lot of threads about this topic in this forum. It is simply a shame that Apple does not offer any graphics upgrade for their former top of the line machines - but they do offer them for their new Intel Mac Pro. Maybe one day ATI will offer an upgrade, but at the moment this is just a rumor. All you can do now is to buy a reflashed PC version of the GeForce 7800 or buy a ridiculously priced spare part GeForce 7800 from a store who is willing to sell you one (there is one on the web but i forgot the url).

Recommendations for wireless adapter to use with Tivo?

I'm shopping for my first Tivo box, and was wondering if any of the Tivo-recommended wireless USB adapters work better with Airport/Mac than the others?
Thanks!
Erin

I'm glad to see this topic addressed here. I have a TiVo (Humax w/DVD Burner) and I have home network using Airport for our 3 Macintosh computers. I have been avoiding trying to hook up my TiVo to the network...and thought I'd do some research before I take the plunge. Based on what I'm reading, I should purchase a D Link DWL 120B?? We also have ReplayTV as well, has anyone tried doing networking with RPTV and Airport?

Need pavillion zv5000 power adapter model number?

A friend gave me an HP Pavillion ZV5000 laptop but he couldn't find the power adapter and the battery is dead. I've searched online for power adapter specs but have found conflicting information... even on the HP support site. If someone has a Pavillion ZV5000 could you please tell me the model number and output voltage of your adapter. Is it 120W or 135W?? Thanks

Common power adapter for Macbook Air and Macbook Pro?

I have both a Macbook Air and a Macbook Pro at home, and it would be really nice to have one magsafe adapter by the couch rather than two...
I have actually tried the Air 45w adapter on my Pro and it works fine as long as the Pro is not fully discharged. If the Pro is unable to start up on battery, it's also unable to start up on the 45w AC. But otherwise it seems fine.
In the reverse direction, normally I use the 85w Pro adapter for both the Pro and the Air. That also works fine; the drawback there is that, since the Air receptacle is mounted at an angle, and the magsafe connector on the Pro adapter is straight-ahead, I have to put the Air on a pillow and even so the connector comes out frequently.
The obvious solution would be an 85W adapter with an Air-style right-angle connector. I find the angled connector is not a problem at all on the Pro.
A few questions therefore:
1) Am I doing any damage, in either direction, using the 45W adapter on Pro or using 85W on Air? My guess is that the adapter and the system are smart enough that it's not a problem. Put another way, I suspect the designers accounted for the possibility that idiots like me would plug one computer's adapter into a different model, and they made sure it was not harmful. But that's speculation on my part. Anyone got any real information?
2) I have done the obvious web search and can't find an 85w with a right-angle magsafe connector. Am I missing something obvious?
3) My next step is to snip both cords and splice an Air connector onto a Pro adapter. I'm not super handy so it will probably be kind of an ugly job. Anyone got any suggestions on the cleanest way to do this?

Hi Ottosmo!
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
1) While it's certainly recommended to use the appropriate wattage on the charger, I too have often found myself using a MacBook Pro (85w) and MacBook (60w) with my MacBook Air. I've yet to encounter an issue in the almost 10 months I've been using my Air. The wattage on the power adapter, to my knowledge, is an indication to the amount of potential power that the charger can deliver to the unit. I know I've read various "blogs and forums" indicating that the power adapter is smart enough to 'scale' back power appropriately.
Now with that being said... should something happen, for whatever the reason, with you using the non-supplied adapter then you'd be taking matters into your own hands. (take that as my own little disclaimer)
2) Correct, the 85w adapter does not come with the right angle adapter. The adapter on the 24" LED Cinema Display does have a right angle adapter that supports up to 85w. But I realize that's not what you asked.
3) Regarding "modifying" the cabling. I'd strongly recommend against it, especially if you don't feel comfortable with splicing and then insulating. Too much room for chance and potential problem/failure. If someone else wants to instruct you on how to do this, that'll be their prerogative.
I ended up purchasing an iLap 13" for using my MacBook Air. It's been fantastic and I have it set off to the side just enough to allow plenty of room for a MacBook or MacBook Pro adapter. Not to mention it allows me to easily use the Air in my lap without any ventilation issues.

A/C Power Adapter for EUROPE

Hi All,
Can anyone recommend an A/C Power adapter for my IBM Thinkpad T60, which I can plug into the European 2-Pin A/C outlet? I don't want to use converters because the A/C outlets where I am staying are recessed and the pins are not long enough to reach the receptacle. I need an actual A/C Adapter that can also operate on the European Frequency.

All ThinkPad AC Adapters are rated with input 100V-240V. This means you can use your own adapter, all you will need is the power cable.

Where do I get the AC to DC Power Adapter for a Linksys "Compact USB 4-Port Hub [USBHUB4C]

I have two Compact USB 4-Port Hubs, Model Number USBHUB4C. These Hubs can be powered, but I cannot find any information on External Power Adapters for these Hubs in any of the documentation or on the Linksys Web Site.
I need to know if Linksys has such Power Adapters available, and if so what the Model Numbers are, and how or where to purchase them.
If I will need a third party Power Adapter, I need to know what the Output Voltage & Current requirements are, and I also need to know the Polarity of the of the two Jack Contacts. [i.e. Is the center pin on the Hub's Jack Positive or Negative?] If possible I'd like to have a recommended Brand and Model Number for the Power Adapter.
Thanks In Advance,
Bruce

Hi, again,
Boy, am I glad I was able to find an answer to my problem in here. I find this very interesting. Here it is, almost 3 years after I made the original post, that I need to find the Power information, for this Device, again, but because of a Computer Crash, I could not get to the original notes, I made about this Forum Entry, so I began the search, again.
I find this very interesting. Here it is, almost 3 years after I made the original post, that I need to find the Power information, for this Device, again, but because of a Computer Crash, I could not get to the original notes, I made about this Forum Entry, so I began the search, again.
I have myriad AC/DC Converters, some of which are Voltage Selectable, but since the Power Specifications aren't on the HUB, or in the PDF Documentation, as is the case with most other Products, I came back to LinkSys/Cisco. As soon as I entered the Model Number of the "Compact USB 4-Port HUBs, Model Number USBHUB4C," for a search, this Forum entry came up on the page, and it appears there haven't been any queries, on any other subject, about this Device, in the interim.
Since the entry has been Viewed 2,484 times, hasn't it dawned on someone that it might be a good idea to carry a Power Product, that is compatible with this HUB, or at least provide a Specific Source, with a Model Number, (for instance, a Radio Shack SKU) so we don't need to hunt for one, over, and over. Why the information was never included in the package with the HUB, beats me. (It should have been on the Device, itself.)
Anyone who knows anything about USB Devices, knows that many of them cannot be powered from the USB Ports on a Computer, especially, on Laptops. Since one of the things mentioned in the Specifications is the fact that you can have "Max. Devices 127 (Daisy-chaining Hubs Together)," it would seem to be obvious that Power Information would be necessary. Since the "Daisy Chain" number is true, it should be obvious, that the "Chain" would require quite a few AC/DC Adapters to power it, adequately.
When this Device was Designed, the requirement for External Power must have been known, or there would never have been a Power Connector built into the Device. I've been in electronics for about 50 years, now, and I know that presently, it's a rarity that the Power Requirements aren't shown on the Device itself, with a Symbol depicting the Polarity of both the Inner, and Outer Conductors. Even Toys have that information shown on them.
I love these HUBs, but LinkSys/Cisco has really dropped the ball on this one. I'm guessing that a lot of people have discovered, that if this 4-Port USB HUB doesn't have External Power, they quickly decided not purchase another one, when they need to "Daisy Chain" them together, for their Network of USB Devices.
When you consider the loss of HUB Sales, coupled with a loss of income from a Power Supply they've never stocked, the numbers could be quite large. That's not even considering the Support time I'm guessing would have been necessary when Customers determined they had a problem, and needed answers. (It's not really a guess, since I talked to several Support People, without getting a satisfactory answer, before I finally came to this Forum, as a last resort.)
I was actually shocked to find that LinkSys/Cisco, didn't sell an AC/DC Power Supply for the HUB, because Power Supplies like that are so commonly required, with the Electronics sold, today. I'd be willing to wager that LinkSys/Cisco does, in fact, carry an AC/DC Power Supply that would be compatible with the "Compact USB 4-Port HUBs, Model Number USBHUB4C," they sell. When something like this happens, I wonder how many other Opportunities like this, have been missed by the people who work for this company.
We've all heard the expression about "Being too close to the Forest, to see the Trees." This may be a good example of it's meaning. At least I was able to find the answer to my Problem, thanks to the fact that the Query I made almost, 3 years ago, which had an answer, was still available to me, thanks to this Forum.
Very Interesting!
