Use removable part from iPod charger for MacBook?

I was wondering if I can use the removable part of the old iPod charger for my MacBook charger instead of the extension cord.
I work with a plug 20 cm away from my MacBook, so I don't really want all the cables on my desk.

No. No part from a iPad charger will work with a Mac notebook. All you are asking for is Trouble. Move your desk closer to an AC outlet.

  • Removing songs from itunes without removing them from ipod

    Is it possible to remove songs from iTunes without removing them from iPod? When I attempt to delete songs from iTunes I get a warning that they'll be deleted from iPod as well. I've got Manually manage music and videos checked under Options in the Summary window.

    You can delete songs from your iTunes/computer hard drive after transferring them to the iPod, and for this you need to set your iPod to manage the iPod content manually.
    However, this is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music would be erased. If you no longer have the music in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that music would be lost.
    What if the iPod were lost/stolen/needed repair? Again, the music would lost. I strongly recommend a back up, and if computer hard drive space is in short supply, you should seriously consider an external hard drive. They are not expensive, and the cost is well worth it when compared to the loss of all your precious music.
    At the very least back up your music to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See these about backing up media.
    How to back up your media in iTunes.
    Buegie's complete back up strategy.
    To move music from iPod to computer, check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.
    There is also CopyPod. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
    If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.

  • Which one of these 12volt/car charger for MacBook Pro would you choose..???

    Hi everyone.
    I am looking for a suitable 12volt/car charger, so i can charge my brand new MacBook Pro directly from our caravan batteries via a car/12 volt socket. I dont want to use a inverter, as it draws unnecessary power from the vans batteries.
    I am being cautious as I don't want to use a product that is not 100% compatible here in Australia and might void the warranty in any way.
    I can not find anything suitable manufactured by Apple but I have found many 3rd party alternatives, ranging from approx $50 up to a couple of hundred.
    Has anyone had any experience with any of these products.

    Thanks for your help in advance

    Hi Carl, Thank you for your help. I am still none the wiser which one to pick. You say they are not equivalent, but don't they all do the same job. I never was any good at joining the dots, my spelling is shocking and I really wouldn't know a technical error even if it was starring me in the face.
    Have a good one.

  • Remove Contacts from iPod

    I need to remove the contacts from the iPod. HOW?
    I unchecked the 'sync' mark under contacts tab and applied, but it will not remove contacts from iPod
    Please help.

    1. Make sure iPod is set up to be used as an external hard disk.
    2. Connect iPod to your computer. The iPod appears as a hard disk on your desktop or in windows explorer.
    3. Open the iPod hard disk.
    4. Open the folder named "Contacts".
    5. Find the vCard for the contact you want to delete.
    6. Drag the vCard to the recycle bin.

  • Can I use my 10W iPad 2 charger for the new iPad air?

    I need several chargers - work, home, travel. Therefore, can I use the 10W chargers from previous iPad models for the new iPad Air? I don't want to purchase 2/3 additional chargers when I purchase my new iPad. Also, can I use the 12W iPad air charger for my iPhone? I don't want to fry it so want to confirm beforehand.

    The new model will have the 12W charger, so you should be able to use it with the new model - from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4327 :
    iPad models come with one of two different adapters. iPad (third generation) and earlier comes with a 10W adapter while iPad (4th generation) comes with a 12W adapter. iPad mini comes with a 5W adapter.
    While these USB Power Adapters are designed for use with iPad or iPad mini, you can use them to charge all iPhone, iPad, iPad mini, and iPod models by connecting them with either the Lightning to USB cable or the 30-pin to USB cable.

  • Why does sync remove songs from iPod?

    why does sync remove songs from iPod? My itune library lost songs with an ! symbol.

    It means iTunes can no longer locate those particular files at the specified location on your PC's hard drive.  So you'll need to search for these track's on your PC and re-import these tracks from their new location.

  • IPod charger for iPhone

    Can I use my iPod charger for iPhone? I think it's second generation iPod mini. The voltages are different.

    Well, I took the iPhone workshops at the Apple Store on Saturday and Apple's "official" word is, if it doesn't say "Works with iPhone", don't use it, because it's "not optimal". Of course this all only applies to the actual power converter, not any iPod dock to USB CABLE. But I've been using an iHome clock radio and I just bought an Extreme Mac Luna clock radio, and they both seem to work well. Since they are not DESIGNED for iPhone, they both give me the airplane mode message and make strange noises periodically if I don't tuen airplane mode on.

    can i use a 60 watts mac charger for an i.book G4    

    I use a 65 watt for both a G4 iBook and a G4 Powerbook. The 60 watt would just be a little slower. I assume it is not an Apple charger as a 60 watt  is not listed in the linked article.
