What non-adapter power connections to use for Boeing 777 business flights?

Hi!
My client would like to know what type of NON-adapter power connections to get for his 15" 2.4 Ghz MacBook Pro on his Boeing 777 business flights. He doesn't want those adapters since they clutter up and are heavy. Also, where to buy them (Costco, Best Buy, Apple stores, etc. in CA, USA).
Thank you in advance.

Thank you.

The specific type of power port depends on the airline (for example, American's 777s have cigarette lighter-style power ports, whereas United's 777s have EmPower ports).
What is needed is the MagSafe Airline Adapter:

That will work with both EmPower and cigarette lighter-style power ports. It does not have a 'power brick', merely a cable with plugs on both ends (and a small adapter for the cigarette lighter-style port). Note that this will not charge the battery, but it will power the MBP during flight.
The above adapter will not work on planes with standard AC connections. In that case, the only solution is a power-brick type of adapter - one would have to use the 60 W MagSafe power supply for a MacBook (or 13"/15" 2.53 GHz MBP), since the 85 W adapter that comes with most MBPs will trip the fuse on seat power (it's limited to 75 W).

    Hi tonyleesb,
    You normally use the Apple USB Power Adapter that came with the phone to charge it, although you can charge it from a computer or powered USB hub.

    If you don't have your original iPhone power adapter you can also use a power adapter for an iPad:

    And of course you can buy either one if you need.

  • What brands and type can I use for my iMac 20" internal Hard Drive?

    what brands and type can I use for my iMac 20" aluminium internal Hard Drive?
    can I use WD caviar black?
    is it too hot?

    If you are replacing the drive because the existing one is faulty, that's one thing. If you just want more space, you should take advantage of having a decently fast and relatively small capacity drive in there now (instead of a huge drive). Get an external FireWire drive and off-load most of your user data there. Make your internal drive dedicated to mostly your OS and app files, with plenty of free space. That setup will make your iMac run more efficiently. I won't go into more detail, because I'm not answered your specific question... You can post back with any questions, if interested...
    To answer your questions...
    You should be able to use any SATA 3.5-inch drive internally, but you should probably keep it at or under 1TB. The main concerns are power usage and heat dissipation. A drive like the WD Caviar Green would be ideal in terms of power and heat, but they do have slower (or variable) spin rate. I have one as an external drive (750GB) and it is amazingly quiet and cool. If I had to replace the internal drive because the current drive failed, I'd put it inside. I'll trade a bit of pure performance for the efficiency (including low noise), and these drives are more advanced with higher data density and larger cache, so the trade-off from slower spin rate may not be so bad.
    You can check your current drive's model number (which is shown in System Profiler) to get the specs online. The stock drive in my old +Late 2006+ iMac is a 7200 RPM drive. The Caviar Black is a 7200 RPM drive, with a newer design. So if you want to use a Caviar Black in there, I think it would be OK.

  • What's the best flash to use for nighttime sports games?

    What's the best flash to use for nighttime sporting events? I have a rebel XT and I'm pushing it to its limits trying to stop the action. I've tried a speedlite 430 but it didn't have a hook up for an external battery pack and I was told I'd need the extra power. Just tried the 580ex ll on Friday but at the 1/1 setting, it didn't flash for each frame in a burst, even with the external power. I should have backed it down to 1/4 but didn't know at the time. Any thought on a really good flash for night sports? Is the 580 a good choice?

    JUst as Tim_S said. YOu will want a external battery pack. Unforatannly the 430 does not have the option to plug in a external battery pack so will want to pick up a 580 or one of the new 600 series. 
    Then you start looking at the battery packs. I recommend Quantum power packs

  • What is the best editor to use for JSP/Servlet?

    Hello,
    What is the best editor to use for JSP/Servlet database development.
    I'm looking at Dreamweaver,Java Studio Creator.
    I want some thing fairly easy to use that has database helper wizards like dreamweaver.
    Thanks for the help.
    Frank

    Is it better to have a servlet do the database work and call it from JSP?No, it's better to have persistence objects do the database work. Servlets handle HTTP requests, and JSPs are HTML factories that should be pure view.
    But there are lots of ways to do things. You just have to understand the tradeoffs when you decide.
    I do not want to hammer out code, I want to learn the
    best way to do things from experienced developers. Sorry, sounded like you just wanted to churn stuff.
    "best way" can be subjective. In one app, "best" might be "delivered fastest". For another, "best" might be "most secure" or "most easily modified" or "best performing" or whatever. You won't get a "best" answer, only different choices. And they aren't always so easy to explain or execute.
    I'd recommend that you start by reading about layered applications (3-tier architectures) and MVC separation. Once you've Googled enough about that, look into a framework like Struts or Spring or WebWork. That'll help you figure out where to put each responsibility in your app.
    I can use dreamweaver to create web apps, but I hate
    the arrays used to define fields. It also seems not
    to take advantage of connection pooling.Don't know what you're talking about here, Frank. What do fields have to do with connection pooling?

  • What the "Local RTP Service" is used for in OWB 9.2.0?

    What the "Local RTP Service" is used for in OWB 9.2.0?

    Dmitry,
    The Runtime Platform (RTP) Service is the server-side component of Warehouse Builder that provides execution and deployment services. For example, if the RTP Service is down you will not be able to start Deployment Manager and will get the error message to that effect. RTP Service is invoked through a database job that is automatically started when the database is started and shut down when the database is shut down.
    It is also manually controllable through Start menu shortcut on Windows or start_service.sql / stop_service.sql in [OWB Home]/owb/rtp/sql

  • What kind of Power Supply to buy for my Power Mac G5?

    Hello!
    After trying several things, and poking around several forums on the net I have become convinced that my Power Mac G5 needs a new Power Supply.  My big question is how do I know what kind of Power Supply to get for it?
    My computer is one of the last of the Power Mac G5's with Motorola chips; it has the dual 2.7 GHz processor core.  I know the install will be tricky, but I feel confident I can do it.
    The Apple store doesn't sell these Power Supplies any more, and our other local Apple repair store said they'd have to "match up the serial numbers" in order to find a new Power Supply... but they also wanted to charge me $200.  (I'm a poor high school science teacher and would rather do it myself.)
    Any words of wisdom/explanations on how to find the right type of Power Supply for my computer would be greatly appreciated!!!

    Thank you both, Mac Man JW & Old Comm Guy!
    My problem has been that the computer won't start at all.  When I press the button on the front panel, I hear the click of a relay (like normal) but then nothing happens... no fans spinning up, no hard drive spinning up... silence. 
    When I open the side panel and press the button, I can see that the 2 cooling fans twitch just a little bit but they immediately stop.  The only other thing I can see is that the red LED 7 light comes on, and according to everything I've read that light means 'contact an Apple representative.'
    This started about 2 weeks ago.  Hadn't had any trouble before then... if there were any warning signs I sure didn't see them.
    If you think it might be something else I'm definitely willing to listen!
    Did you check the liquid cooling system inside your G5 for leaks? That can make your G5 not start up as well. Look at this link: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac_g5/faq/powermac-g5-liquid-cooling -info-leaks-issues.html  

  • What is the 'add marker' feature used for in iMovie 10?

    Can anyone tell me what the 'add marker' feature is used for in iMovie 10, I cant find any documentation on it anywhere, it doesnt even show under the help menu???

    hmm… well observed!
    In iMovie, markers are actually just… blue dots.
    In its bigger brother, FCPX, markers are…
    Markers overview
    Markers are reference points you can place within clips to locate, identify, annotate, and navigate to specific frames. In editing, markers are particularly useful for synchronizing two or more clips at a specific point. For example, you can use a marker to label the frame where a door slams and then snap a sound effect to that marker. You can use markers to flag a specific location in a clip with editing notes or other descriptive information. When you add chapter markers to specific points in your project, viewers can use the markers to quickly jump to those points in the movie after it’s been exported or burned to DVD or Blu-ray disc. You can also use markers for task management.
    Markers are classified as standard markers (blue), chapter markers (orange), to-do items (red), or completed to-do items (green).
    so, maybe, this indicates some forthcoming features in iMovie (wohooo, speculation!)?
    (iMovieX indicates some forthcoming features of next FCPX.1… but this is another story)
    There's one meaningful use, which comes to my mind:
    Edit to the beat:
    While your project is playing, you can 'tap' onto the M key…
    and not just 'per beat', but more like 'dancing', highlights, pauses, drama…
    In a second step, you can use the dots, to find the perfect point for edit.

    What anti-virus software shall I use for my Mac OS X 10.6.8?

    There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac will NOT be infected by a virus, it may have other security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.
