I plugged the wrong AC adapter / CC, I damage anything?

On my laptop Acer Aspire E 15, ac adapter charger provided with the laptop has an output of 19V, but I accidentally had a 20V adapter plugged in like 5 minutes and I didn't. My laptop works, but is it possible that I could you have damaged the laptop or shorten its life?

I doubt that if the difference of 1 volt hurt anything.

    I just got an iPhone 6 and when I plugged in my laptop, he asked if I wanted to restore my new phone. I said yes! But unfortunately chose the wrong backup restore with. Is there a way I can go back to how my phone was before?

    Yes, you can as long as you understand that you will lose everything that is currently on the phone.

    (1) settings > General > reset > erase content and settings

    That will make the iPhone as new.  Then, during the installation process it again once will ask you if you want to restore from an existing backup.  You can then restore the scheduled backup.

  • NVIDIA Quadro: I plug 6-pin power adapter or connector 8 pin?

    I am trying to install my graphics card Nvidia Quadro 6000 on a HP Z820 with a PSU 1125W

    The Quadro card: 1x8pin auxiliary power connector and power connector auxiliary 1x6pin.

    My questions are

    1. in the connection of my power adapter, do I plug the unit into the 8 pin or 6 PIN auxiliary connector?

    2. where can I connect the other end of the power adapter?

    3. the power adapter must be a HP one or can I use any brand.

    4, if it's HP, what is the part number

    I would appreciate help on this.

    First, it is important to know that there is another interface "6 to 8 pins" which is a feature of power-for - motherboard power ... you don't want that, sure, and connectors plastic is having different shapes.  You can see that he has 4 yellow wires (usually the supply wires) and would not have the sequence of correct wiring of a PCIe 6 to 8 pins supplementary power converter:

    I don't know the show, too, is not what you want.  This looks like an 8 pin to two adapter 6 pins.  You want a 6-pin to 8 pin adapter.  Is attached another picture of the nVidia type tells you to do.  If you look at the hyperlink at the top of this post you will find the wiring of 6 pins on 8 wire and for your project, you will probably want to follow the advice of nVidia for best results.  There is power to the ground and 'sense' son to all be correctly connected to the adapter.

    There is also some PCIe additional adapters that allow you to convert several sheets supply 4 son "molex" grouping in a single 6-pin PCIe or connector 8.  It is best to not do this if you have a power with official ones built in.  Your the fact, and to check the manual, it looks like your top rated power supply has 3 of these auxiliary PCIe power cords (G1, G2 and G3 will be printed on the side of the end of your 3 card).  On the other hand, offer reduced rated power of the Z820 has only 2 additional PCIe (auxiliary) cords supplied by it.

    I don't know if you are forced to use a good 6-8 converter or could if away with plug 6 pin right in the correct position on the plug 8 pins of your videocard directly, according to article of the hyperlink.  I, personally, would get an adapter.

    EDIT: Here is a picture of two ends of what is supposed to be a PCIe 6-pin supplementary power adapter PCIe 8 pins.  The first and third power pins 6 pins are officially DC 12v (some references have each of the first 3 pins being 12vDC) and subsequently, the rest are supposed to be a 'sense' or earthed.  When I look at the plug 8-pole end wiring I do not see a ground wire or ground jumper coming to pin 8.  I would not recommend it, unless I'm wrong about his son:

  • With the help of adapter Cassette w / Pre?

    The cassette adapter that I use with my iPod doesn't seem to be compatible with the Pre.  When I plug the adapter cassette in the Meadow all get it is silence.  (The plug on the stereo earbuds that come with the Pre has three bands, the cassette adapter plug has only two strips.  "I think that the 'extra' Strip on the card of the GER is to allow a microphone.)  Is there an adapter that allows you to use 'standard' cassette adapters and other devices to use the headset of the GER?

    I have a cassette adapter that works very well with the pre. Could not believe how it sounded when I plugged it. Something must be wrong.

  • I get no picture on the TV when using mini ipad with the Digital AV adapter.

    I get a white on my TV screen when I connect my mini ipad digital AV adapter except HDMI 1 showing in the upper left corner of the TV screen. My mini2 ipad works great with the same son and TV.  I tried two ipads with different TV but get the same result. The ipad mini works OK if not connected to the TV. Two minis are working on the same operating system setting.

    The Digital AV adapter can be finnicky.

    Have you tried simply unplug and plug the adapter with the HDMI cable connected with it?

    With the adapter always plugged into your iPad, have you tried a hard reset of your iPad by pressing the sleep/wake and Home buttons simultaneously until your iPad goes to the dark and restarts with the Apple logo, then release them buttons?

  • I bought a 2 French MagSafe adapter for my Mac of USA. Can I also use the cord French him with my USA for the first Mac adapter?

    We are the USA, but visit the France my MacAir and Macbook Pro husband. Both use the 2 MagSafe power adapter. So, I bought a power MagSafe 2 with French plugs adapter. Can we mix and match, while in France, using (1) the French MagSafe 2 adapter plug directly into the more (2) the French cord with adapter USA. In addition, we were worried we needed the voltage conversion of 240 to 110 while in France but the other, the old messages suggest that we could simply use an adaptor plug French with the USA MagSafe 2 even power adapter. Is this true?

    You don't need a power converter. The Chargers can use 110-240 volts. Read the fine print on the charger (you will need a magnifying glass if your eyes are as bad as mine). The only part you need is the area plug the adapter to fit the wall socket.

  • L50-B-27N satellite PSKTQE - pilot page displays the wrong divers?

    Hello Forum,

    I bought a Satellite L50 B 27N with the short code PSKTQE.
    I use this site to download the driver:
    http://www.Toshiba.de/innovation/Dow...jsp?service=de

    Is it possible that there is the wrong display drivers?
    For example the WiFi network is an Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 and not a Broadcom/Atheros one.

    If I install the graphics driver AMD I get the message that the driver has stopped working. I tried to install Blutooth and something else, but the number of damage not recognized in Device Manager does not drop. I think that the drivers do not correspond to the laptop.

    Is there a list of what I need to download drivers, or what I'm looking for everything manually?

    Thank you

    Peter

    The drivers are not wrong, but different L50 - B PSKTQE Satellite models could be fitted with different equipment; That is to say different WLan modules.

    Some of the units in charge Atheros, Broadcom or Intel (there are 2 different modules) wireless network adapter...

    I think that something is damaged on the motherboard.

    In the worst case you will need a new motherboard that could be a costly affair :(

  • Satellite M60-166: care of the defective AC adapter - I need to replace it?

    I have a portable Satellite M60-166, which is powered by the PA1750-09 power adapter.
    The end that plugs into the laptop is a bit faulty as it reload only in certain positions.
    I can't, unfortunately, accompanied.

    Replaces the ENTIRE BLOCK the only possibility for the extraordinary charge of around £30?
    Thank you

    Hmm, theoretically, you can replace the Witch of universal Charger AC adapter but this AC must support the same specifications as ampere, volt, watt values!

    But believe me; You must use the adapter recommended by Toshiba due to the warranty policy. Maybe if you do NOT use the charger Toshiba and this 3rd sector adapter part may damage the motherboard specifications then the warranty does not cover the repair procedure.

    Therefore, you are only on the safe using the specially designed original adapter side for your laptop!

    Best regards

  • My Satellite phone (A305) stops operating on the sector/charger adapter

    The problem is that my Toshiba laptop series _A300 (A305) stops when you try to run on the Charger AC/adapter_. You can start with the power cord plugged in and it goes to the Windows desktop and maybe a few more minutes to the maximum before turning off.

    It will start and battery without problem_ _run, but if you plug the AC while it is in place and running on machine battery will normally DESACT instantly and restart to the message "Windows has been shut down properly."

    The adapter _AC works fine_ reading a 19.19 to 19.20 stable volts with a volt meter. He also _charges battery very well when the computer is ignored. I have two Toshiba brand batteries, and both work very well.

    An interesting thing is that the _computer works well on AC if safe mode_.

    I _did a restore_ of reformat/factory of Vista to ensure it was not software and drivers and still had the same problem before external devices had been plugged.

    It has the latest version of the BIOS and I tried to reset the values by default where something had changed. It made no difference.

    This is _not an issue_ of heating because _while it works on battery I can watch long videos_ without it cutting. I ran the air through the vents in order to ensure, but it makes no difference in behavior. Usually with overheating stop, the computer cannot be started until it has cooled some, but these cases are accompanied by Instant reboot.

    I saw on a few discussions that this type of problem, you can work around by disabling one of the processors in the Device Manager, but I don't think it is a big part of a sustainable solution or for the computer.

    Has anyone seen this problem before and you come up with a complete diagnosis of the problem and a real solution?

    I have the Satellite A300 and so far everything works OK.

    I would like to know what happens when you remove the battery and use the laptop with power supply only. Done laptop stops again.

    If this is not the case, leave the BONES run and put the battery.
    The battery is correctly recognized? Laptop turned off again?

    To be honest, I can't imagine that this question has something with the software or background process. Recovery image, that you got with your laptop is designed for this specific laptop mode. Recovery image has been tested and I don t think preinstalled OS has nothing to do with it.

    Complete diagnosis?
    And how to proceed? You know very well that the diagnosis can only be done with diagnostic tools, and these tools have only services. I hope that you find some answers but I m 99% there is nothing you can do about it. Maybe you should communicate with the service, explain the situation and ask for help.

  • Satellite C50-B-12V: mic turns off when I plug the headphones

    Hello

    I recently bought a computer laptop Toshiba Satellite, Satellite C50-B-12V

    I'm really happy with my new lap top - thought I am facing a problem.
    It seems that the port to plug in headphones and the port to plug in a microphone is the same. so, if I plug headphones wireless for a Skype call, the other party can not hear me.

    Is there anyway that I can adjust the computer so that it shouldn't be a problem?

    Again, I would be able to plug the headset on my computer to hear my interlocutor better - and who have not cause the other party cannot hear me.

    Hello

    This integrated headphone / microphone port equipped with a plug of 4 section (identified with 3 black rings)
    You have two options to solve the problem mentioned.
    You must use a headset / microphone with jack combo or you could buy an adapter 'Y' which can connect your current helmet with separate microphone and speaker back to the headset / combo jack.

    Something like that:
