Using TB Display as charging hub

Will a Thunderbolt Display charge connected peripherals without a host connected ?
-eg. the TB display is powered up, iPhone, iPad, USB powered external batteries etc., connected to the USB hub on the display, but no computer connected to the display.
-Assuming the peripheral itself supports it
Best regards.

Quick answer   Many thanks.

    It is quite safe to use the higher powered iPad charger for other devices, as they will only use the amount of power required for charging, eventhough higher power is available. The Apple store shows all devices that can be safely charged with the iPad charger, see the link below.

  • Can I use my thunderbolt display without charging my macbook pro?

    First off- Here's what I have-
    2012 13 inch Macbook Pro
    2.5 GHz Intel core i5
    8GB RAM
    Stock 500GB 5400rpm HDD
    Mountain Lion OSX
    Anyone know how I can use my thunderbolt without charging my Macbook Pro?
    Also, my Thunderbolt jack, port, and my overall computer get really hot when I'm using my display. Anyone else have this issue?
    Thanks!

    Ohhh I see it now.... The thing is I only have 13 cycles on my battery, but the max is only 92% percent charge... I thought that would be the charger charging my MBP and using the battery at the same time.... Another thing, would you happen to know why I have a max of 92% charge and only 13 cycles? (Two different apps are telling me the same thing...)

  • Can I use my Android tablet charger for the PlayBook?

    Hello,
    I got a PlayBook and it came with the wrong charger plug. It's for the US that I can't use here in Germany.
    Can I use my Android tablet charger for the PlayBook instead?
    The information on the chargers are similiar but for the output it's a bit different: (They both say 5V but than 1.8 instead of 1.5)
    PlayBook charger output: 5V = 1.8A
    Android tablet charger output: 5V = 1.5A 
    Thanks for any feedback.

    It'll charge slightly slower, but yes.

  • Displays "not charging"

    I have an iPad 3 and all of a sudden it displays "not charging". So I bought three new cable cords and a 12W adapter and I still get the same message. I know even though it says not charging it is, just at a slower pace. Any sugguestions?

    Inspect the 30-pin charging port on the device for dust/lint/gunk/whatever. The 30-pin port loves to attract & hang onto stuff that can prevent proper contact between the charging cable's conductors and the port's conductors. Clean it out with a clean brush...an old, clean toothbrush will work fine. After cleaning it, blow it out using just your own human wind-power (blow).
    You may also want to try a device reset to see if that helps:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.
    Are the newly purchased items (cables & charger) official Apple products? Some of the 3rd party accessories don't like to work well with iOS 7 & iOS 8. If they are official Apple products, I would make a Genius Bar reservation and have the iPad & the accessories (take them ALL in) evaluated for free. You can make a Genius Bar reservation linked below. You'll need your Apple ID to make a reservation.

  • I have a Samsung Laptop but would like to use Cinema Display with mini displayport.  Is that possible?

    I have a Samsung Lap top but would like to use Cinema Display.  The only connections on my lap top is HDMI and VGA.  How can I get it to work?

    Thanks Malcolm.  I saw this on the apple site
    Kanex C247D Single-Link DVI to Mini DisplayPort Converter
    Will that work?
    I also spoke to someone at apple..They told me to get 2 cables.  Mini DisplayPort to Dvi and Dvi to Hdmi..Connect the 2 and it will work...Do you think it will work? Just to save$$$

  • Having problems connecting a late 2011 Macbook Pro 2.2ghz i7 to a Sony KDL-32L5000 using a display miniport to DVI adapter (DVI to VGA cord). The TV is not detecting the macbook. Anyone have this problem?

    You really have to mess with the resoluton, espescially the refresh rate, as it varies from projector to projector, monitor to monitor. Even within the same brand! Because so many manufacturers are trying so many different things to become the next cool kid on the block, and the way the formats are being configured that's now part of the game.
    That's why so many professionally produced corporate shows hire a dedicated projectionist for the video presentations. Too many bugs in the honey.
    Refresh & sesolution are the first things to look at.
    Just so you know that colors in PowerPoint PC, and PowerPoint Mac, don't exactly match... go figure.
    I forgot to mention another thing, sometimes it's the projector that needs to be tweaked.

  • Can i use a 85 watt charger for my macbook pro that came with an 60 watt charger?

    My charger broke a few weeks ago and i ordered another one on amazon and that broke within a week so i'm going to just buy another one from the apple store. But i dont want to wait to order one because i currently cant use my laptop since it died (i dont live near an apple store), but theres a store that sells apple products. they only have 85 watt for the laptops though. so would i be able to use that without ANY issues? I would rather order from the apple store than to buy something that can cause problems, so i just want to know if my macbook will be safe if i use an 85 watt instead of the 60 watt, which is what originally came with my laptop. Thank you.

    An 85 watt charger will be fine. Generally, you can use a higher-powered charger than the one that came with your MBP - but using a lower-powered charger is not recommended.

  • How do you use multiple displays with a MacBook Pro and iMac

    I have an iMac and a MacbookPro laptop both upgraded to OS X 10.9 (Mavericks).  I'd like to use multiple displays with them.  Can I do this without an Apple TV?  They are both on the same network.  If I can, can someone please give some instructions on how this can be done?
    Thanks!

    Both computers have ports for external monitors. Check your user manuals. Only one display can be added to the MBP, but newer iMacs have dual Thunderbolt ports.
    Do your own Google research to learn what to do, but reading your manuals should be all you really need. It' not rocket science yet.

  • How do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.

    how do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.  My iMac is the 24" Late 2006 model.  I recall that there is a cord for plugging in a second monitor, but I want to make sure that i can use both monitors side-by-side at the same time.  thank you.

    If the Display supports DVI, then you will need a > Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
    If the Display only supports VGA, then you wiil need a > Mini DVI to VGA Adapter and a VGA cable.
    Noting that the (digital) DVI is far better than the (analog) VGA connection.

  • Can I use the same power charger in another country (South Africa) and just but a socket adapter?

    I am moving to South Africa from the US for a year and want to know if I can use the same power charger in South Africa and just but a socket adapter or do I need to get a new power charger for S.A.?

    Hi,
    Nowadays laptop chargers can be used for normal electricity around the world (110V to 250V). All we need is a small plug adapter similar the the ones we use to travel overseas. Most electrical shops, travel agents and airports ... sell them.

  • How do I use dual displays to have a full screen app on one monitor and another full screen app or the desktop on the other?

    How do I use dual displays to have a full screen app on one monitor and another full screen app or the desktop on the other?
    I want to have my itunes visualizer on my TV which is connected via HDMI adapter, and still have access to full screen itunes and my desktop on the main display.
    Any suggestions?  App downloads that can do this?  Please let me know.

    You can't do it.  This has been an issue since Lion.

  • Can i use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air

    Can I use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air?

    It's really not recommended. The iPhone's 5w charger does not output enough current to properly charge the battery. It -may- charge but if it did, it would charge the iPad very slowly.
    This would be like trying to fill a bucket of water (iPad) with a squirt gun (5w charger)
    Also under iOS 7, the charging requirements are much stricter than iOS 6. You'll likey get an error message if you try.
