Travel adapter, not converter to charge in a 220V country
Will a travel adapter, not converter, be ok to charge my mba in a 220v country?
I noted in the manual it said under 'Magsafe power spec's: Line Voltage 100 to 240 V.
Thx!!
Yes. Mac just needs an adapter, not a converter.
Best.

All you need is an adaptor for the plug. The charger itself is a world charger & works everywhere.

JMS sender adapter not converting data to XML properly.
Hi,
I am using JMS adapter to read data from MQ. The length of each segment is fixed.
The problem is there is no new line character at the end of each segment .So JMS adapter is just reading the first line and not reading the rest.
What I found out that if I place a new line character at the end of each segment it works fine. But for me I have constraint that in MQ the source system cannot send a new line character at the end of each segment. So can any one tell me how can I solve this issue?
The sample data that I am getting from MQ is:
AA12345
BBXYZXY CC12300
CC456AS
We are using SP13.
The length of each segment is fixed.
Any help is appreciatedHi Sameer,
fieldFixedLengths is used to divide the data among the elements of a segment.
For example if I have the segment structure like
AA1234567
BB12345
BBXYZ12
Then in the module processor we define
xml.recordsetStructure NameA,1,NameB,*
xml.NameA.fieldNames MyKey,field-nameA
xml.NameA.fieldFixedLengths 2,7
xml.NameA.fieldNames MyKey,field-nameB
xml.NameB.fieldFixedLengths 2,5
As per my understanding goes First it reads the first line till it finds a new line char and then it uses fieldFixedLength to assign data to the fields inside the segments. Here in the above example A1=AA and A2=1234567
But I am not aware if we can use fieldFixedLength to identify the segment it self. If so then how can I use it can u let me know?

Apple World Travel Adapter Kit and the iPhone!
so, i have the Apple World Travel Adapter Kit which i was using with my powerbook.
now, im takin the iphone with me abroad, and im just wondering if it would be compatible.
the thing that confuses me is that the iphone adapter is usb, and with the powerbook adapter, north american plug can pop off and i can place another one to it.
this is what i have:

i think i need this:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB051LL/A?fnode=MTY1NDA0MQ&mco=MTQ1MzA
anyone try it yet?Thanks, but my question was can I use the 10 watt power supply with the iPhone 4?
A 10 watt USB charger should work, but may not charge as fast as the iPhone charger. The 10 watt iPad charger will but other brands may not signal the iPhone about the power rating, so the iPhone may assume a standard USB port, which can only provide 2.5 watts.
The 5 watt that it comes with is a an Edison plug and can't be changed with the world kit.
The World Travel Adapter Kit includes a charger with a removable plug so that charger can be used with the plug adapters in the kit.
You don't need the kit, though. You can just buy non-Apple plug adapters to use with your current charger. -
I have a World Travel Adapter Kit for use with my iPad when traveling abroad. I know this charger can be used on an iPhone, can the plug adapters also be used with the charger of a Mac Book Pro or is a special converter required?
Is there any concern about the type of travel adapter kit? For instance, some instructions indicate they are for heat creating appliances (hairdryers, curling irons, etc.). I bought such a set, but do they present any issues if used with more delicate electronic circuitry (for iPads, iPods, or with camera battery chargers). I am leaving for the UK on Monday and need to get it right - are they too strong for the Apple products if they are not to be used with computers? What other options are out there?

Visting Peru,Does the World Travel Adapter Kit work there/need converter??
I'm planning to go to Peru for the summer, I want to take my macbook and I'm also thinking of buying an ipod 30g video. I know the voltage is 220, but the thing is this my first time I'll be travelling with my macbook being that it cost me soo much money.
Will the World Travel Adapter Kit work there and Do I need to buy a converter?? Because on the packaging it says all the countries that it'll work in and there's no mention of South America and I've asked at the Apple Store and they basically said "it should" but I just want to be certain. Do I need to get anything else? I don't plan to go online over there so , Do I need to buy a Travel Surge Protector??
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.2)If you have an iPod power supply (AC adapter) these are also automatically
switching or auto-detecting, so all you'd need is the little end part from the
world travel kit. If the design of the iPod AC Adapter is like the ones I've
seen (standard Apple unit) which looks like the MacBook's, you can take the
same adapter piece and use it in place of the other adapter's AC - in
part. The little end part of the adapter (which you can take off to put on
the long AC - in power cord, instead of the prong/plug on adapter part)
comes off when proper effort is applied to it. It is not an easy to come off
item, but you can carefully slide/push the piece to get it off.
[There are third-party chargers for iPods but they may not be
auto-switching or support both 110/220 volts. You can charge
an iPod from the USB cable, but it would then be using the
computer's power. If the portable is fully charged and you
have access to an AC power source, you could easily charge
an iPod from the computer without discharging the MacBook.]
If you have the long AC power cord that goes with the MacBook's AC adapter,
you can see how the modular plug usually shipped on the power adapter is
on the inside; this may help in understanding how it comes off. The world
power adapter kit (from Apple) has matching parts to utilize this feature.
I use a long power cord all the time on my iBook's power adapter; and
the part is identical in how it comes off, as the iPod's standard (cube)
AC power adapter. If nothing else and you are in a travel store, such as
one would find in a larger airport, ask about those single power plugs
that are used for electronics which auto-detect and switch; these are
not real "power converters" since they only need to physically match
the power utility's shape, not change the power from 110/220 or back.
They are the most basic adapters because do not change the electricity,
your Apple product will truly do the adapting to the regional AC power.
[If the end of the iPod adapter is not like that of your MacBook's
(they are like the PowerBook/iBookG4 most exactly) you may
need to check the World kit from Apple as it would likely have
the correct parts; should they have a subtle difference in fit.]
(With few exceptions. There are some products that require a regional
power supply; those are listed in the Apple Support power adapter page.)
•Apple authorized resellers have Apple iPod chargers; so
a visit to them may be necessary to get the correct one
for your iPod. Be sure to look or ask about traveling and
if the unit you find is capable of auto-detecting and running
on 110 and 220 with only a prong adapter kit. -
Traveling out of the country, can I use a converter to charge
We will be traveling throught Europe and I want to be sure that I can charge our family's 2 iPod touch devices using a regular travel converter. I know you cannot use a standard converter for a laptop but what about our iPods
You can use the standard charger for 110/220V 50/60Hz. You do not need a converter, only an adapter to convert from the US flat prong plug to the plug shapes of the country you are in. They are only a dollar or two each.

Travel adapter or power converter?
Do I need a power converter to charge my BlackBerry Bold and PlayBook in Holland or is a travel adapter enough?
Solved!
Go to Solution.Hi there!
Well, since you haven't said where you are originating from, it's pretty tough for anyone to know. I know that with my US-based charger, an adapter is all that I've needed and I've taken it all over the world.
Good luck!

I have the Apple world travel adapter Kit. Do I need a voltage converter to step down 220 V to 110 V?
As Meg said, no, you don't need a converter. Take a close look at the charger... it says 110-240VAC Input, or something similar.
-
I have an iPhone4. Do I need a voltage converter for charging when traveling to countries using 220/240V?
No. All Apple power supplies are "universal". They will work anywhere in the world. You just need a plug adapter.

Does travel to Austraila require a converter to charge iphone 3GS
I am traveling to Australia, from the US, in a few weeks and was wondering if I needed to purchase a power converter to charge my iPhone 3GS or if I would be able to just use an adapter for that country?
The USB charger is universal, 100-240 V, 50-60 Hz. All you need is a plug adapter.
You can read it on the charger if you have a magnifying glass. -
I have a new Ipad Air and have noticed everytime I open the screen the charge has reduced. over night it dropped from 58% to below 10 with a low battery warning.
The screen was asleep, cellular switched off, Bluetooth on for the keyboard. all setting infact the same as my last model which performed excellently.
Anyone know why its losing its charge so quickly. it also sems very slow to recharge also, in one hr its gained a 12% charge.Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

Keepgettimg accessory not supported when charging in romania. I have all the correct connections. ie wall converter, USB cord etc.
If you know the IP address of the printer, then you can check if there is a working path between the Mac and printer. This can be done using Network Utility or a web browser.
If you open Network Utility and select the Ping tab, you can enter the IP address of the Kodak and then press the Ping button. If there is a working connection then you should get a reply to each packet sent.
With the web browser, many devices have a built-in web server so you can type the IP address of the printer into the browser and if there is a working connection then you will open the printers web page.
So, are you able to confirm you have a working connection between the Mac and printer? -
Charging my ipod in India with Apple's World Travel Adapter kit?
I am going to India. I would like to take my ipod mini. I have the USB Power Adapter. Does the Apple World Travel Adapter Kit have a plug that will work in India? Thanks.
Apparently not.
"The AC plugs included in the World Travel Adapter Kit directly support outlets in North America, Japan, China, United Kingdom & Ireland, Continental Europe, Korea, Australia, and Hong Kong."
But I would have thought it would be easy to pick up a plug adaptor at the airport or any electrical shop.
Or here.
