Using the charger in another country.

I bought my MBP in Hong Kong. I'm about to go back to Canada. i was wondering if the charger is able to switch voltages on its own without the help of an adapter.

All that's needed is an adapter so the plug fits the outlet. The MBP's power adapter runs on 100-240 V an d 50 or 60 Hz, so it works worldwide.

    My iPad won't charge using the charger brick

    you can try giving your device a reset and see if that helps. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try. If that doesn't fix it, then time to move onto other trouble shooting.
    Usually if an iPad won't charge (presuming you're using the supplied charger plugged into the wall), it's:
    bad brick
    bad cable
    bad outlet
    bad port on the iPad
    you can eliminate the first three by swapping out chargers if you have another, swapping out cables and trying a different outlet. If you do that and eliminate the first three, then it may be the port on your iPad. If so, and your iPad is still under warranty, make an appointment at your local apple store and take it in.

  • My ipod 5th gen says it is connected to the internet and i can go on apps that require an internet connection but whe i try to use the weather or another app that uses your current location it cant find me???

    If you open the Maps app where does that say you are located?
    For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
    Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
    You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds

    Is it normal for someone to have general diffuculty charging an ipad?  I see the "not charging" message even when I am using the charger and cord that came in the original box, plugged into a wall socket directly.  It is normal for me to plug it in overnight and to see no charge whatsoever the next day.  I have never had so much trouble using a friggin charger in my life.  It just seems to be exceedingly finicky.  What am I missing?

    Charging your iPad should not be problematic. It should be an easy thing to do using the charger provided with your iPad connected to a known good wall outlet.
    The charging problem you are experiencing is most like caused by:
    1. A faulty charger
    2. A faulty cable
    3. A bad wall outlet
    4. A problem in the iPad.
    The first three of these are easiest to eliminate. Try a for ends charger and cable. Make absolutely sure your outlet is good. Try other outlets.
    If the charger, cable and outlet a proven to be good then the problem lies in the iPad.
    Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • Can you use the same charging cable for both an iPhone and an IPad or are they different?  When I use the charging cable for my iPhone on my Ipad, it doesn't charge.

    Can you use the same charging cable for both an iPhone and an IPad or are they different?  When I use the charging cable for my iPhone on my Ipad, it doesn't charge.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W 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 (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.

  • If I switch my installed PS6, Illustrator and InDesign over to the Cloud, will I have to pay monthly even though I already purchased the programs? And will I then be able to use the program on another computer when I sign into my adobe account?

    If I switch my installed PS6, Illustrator and InDesign over to the Cloud (from an installed program with the code, like Adobe used to do it), will I have to pay monthly even though I already purchased the programs? And will I then be able to use the program on another computer when I sign into my adobe account? I know how to switch it over, I just want to make sure I won't also have to pay monthly even though it's already been purchased.

    Your purchase of licensed version of Adobe applications does apply to CC subscriptions.  If you subscribe you will pay for the subscription on whatever periodic basis you choose (monthly versus annually).

  • When I try to use the clone stamp another layer of my picture is copied on the photo I'm working on.  Is this a defect or is there a tool I can use to stop it and return to normal usage of the clone stamp?

    When I try to use the clone stamp another layer of my picture is copied on the photo I'm working on.  Is this a de@@@@fect or is there a tool I can use to stop it and return to normal usage of the clone stamp?

    The "Sample Field" letters are very dim.  After punching several times the right click revels "Clone stamp mode".  The next little circle has a line through it and after several right clicks, it says: "turn on to ignore adjustment layers when cloning,"  Despite this I cannot get any kind of a response to change any of the existing entries.  Bob

    Can I use the charger of the iPhone of Mexico in Europe or I need some adapter?

    This question comes up from time to time. YouTube and Facebook are both wrong.
    There are a number of con-men who think that they can earn a quick buck from claiming that they own the copyright to Apple’s royalty-free jingles and sound effects included with the iLife applications. These are all free to use, as clearly stated in section 2.C of the iLife Software License Agreement:
    “You may use the Apple and third party audio content (“Audio Content”) contained in or otherwise included with the Apple software, on a royalty-free basis, to create your own original soundtracks for your video and audio projects. You may broadcast and/or distribute your own soundtracks that were created using the Audio Content, however, individual samples, sound sets, or audio content may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound files, sound effects or music beds.”

  • Is there a video chat app that can use the Charge's front facing camera?

    Is there a video chat app that can use the Charge's front facing camera?
    Edit: for video chat between the Charge and a PC. 
    Thanks!

    I tried Tango, Qik, and ooVoo. 
    The only one that can use the Charge's front facing camera AND video chat with a PC is the ooVoo.
    Works perfectly!
    Tango and Qik ad mobile-to-mobile only at this time.
    Thanks!
    P.S.   .... this really makes me wonder why Skype cannot work with the front facing camera if other
    companies can do it on the Froyo?  I guess Skype developers are really lazy(or have no incentive
    to make it work)

    You can also use the iPad charger (12W) to charge the iPhone (its charger is 5W) and it will charge the iPhone faster.
