power

Greetings all, I am an amateur producer and I mix and master wherever I am at the moment many times. I had a USB hub (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TPMEOYM/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_e-WZDb5TYSMNG) running into one USB port and my Scarlett 2i2 in the other. In the hub, I would have my iLok and a...

My current setup is a MacPro5,1 with a GTX Titan X (6+8 pin). Currently using a 6-to-8 pin adapter for the 8 pin input on the card. Would I need to pick up another 6-to-8 pin adapter since the EVGA PowerLink has dual 8 pin inputs?

Please, help! I have a very annoying problem with Macbook air 2017 (mac OS Mojave). Keyboard light turns off totally after fully charge the battery. It happens right after 2 or 3 minutes as I unplug the charger. Tried everything: system management controller (SMC), checked and unchecked...

I believe the PowerPC community needs no introduction regarding the brilliant Talos II, Talos II Lite, Blackbird and the upcoming Condor product lines by Raptor. Knowing these computers being insanely high-performant, cost-competitive, privacy-respecting and completely blob-free (unless we count...

I've got to report the electrician rMBP 2014 power so he calculates what automatic breaker I can afford. I've heard the unit for power is watts (W). I've also heard outside my country the power is measured in A. https://support.apple.com doesn't state anything like this but MagSafe 2 specs...

2017 iMP - running fine today and then a couple of minutes after the screensaver kicked in it made a brief static crack noise from the speakers and went dark. Tried the obvious with the power and buttons but no response, visually or audibly. When hooked-up to a power monitor I can see that the...

I bought a usb c power meter and I did an experiment. I noticed that with Apple's included usb-c cable charging is not stable ☹️. As you can see in the screenshots I took. In stage 1 I charged with the usb-c power meter between the Macbook and charging cable. You can see that I charge with a...

Random question. I recently moved into a new house that was built a long long time ago. (Zillow says 1900, but I don't know). So the house has older wiring, not sure if it's dirty yet... However, Do we need a power conditioner on our systems? Would a UPS do the same thing? If so how many watts...

Hi, after some advice on my Macbook Air 2013 It will not power up on battery or when the battery is connected. Only Way To Startup Is By Having The Battery Disconnected & Connecting The MagSafe Power - Which Starts The MACBOOK without using the power button. On the odd occasion i was able to...

So having a hard time deciding which adapter to buy for my Iphone XS for fast charging, been reading about how the iPhone XS and iPhone XR will only draw a maximum of 18 watts? Any difference between the two? Charging speeds?

Hello everybody I'm trying to keep it short as I'm already a week off. I would like that if I start bootcamp on my external SSD, which can keep my eGPU connected and Windows does not crash when booting, because it does not get the power management. Windows I got on it according to this video...

My mother got an iPad 2 in early 2013 and used it until she got an iPad Air 2 in 2016. Around that time, she accidentally dropped the iPad 2 with a cheap case in front of our door step and it cracked the screen, but it still worked fine. After several months to a year, it just stopped turning...

Hey guys, when I eject USB drives on my MM2018 the drives spindown after eject as expected, but then they just spin up again (staying unmounted from the OS tho). Never happened on my other Macs, is it happening on yours too? Thx!

Hi. Recently, my 2017 MacBookPro (Mac OS mojave v. 10.14.3) has started losing all battery charge overnight and after a few hours. I've checked all the recommended items (battery cycle (221 or something) is normal, no significant power energy drains- well, now Google Chrome-, I've lowered...

It surprises me (touch wood) how long Leopard’s version of Screen Sharing is lasting in terms of working well with increasingly distant versions of the MacOS. Seeing as I recently got Gigabit internet and Ethernet around my house I’ve been able to flawlessly control my Xserve from my MBP when...

I got a 2017 MacBook Pro 13" at home. And a 2011 iMac at office. And I got 2 usb-c dongles Juiced Systems Bizhub and Apple Digital AV adapter. When I connect my iPhone to the computers, I get the following current readings.. 1. Bizhub + Lightning cable + MBP Current Available (mA): 500...

Mains power here is not that great - we don't have many long outages, but plenty of little half-second outages that play havoc with stuff in a home-office: routers, desktop hard drives, and soon, a Mac mini. I've been intending to get a UPS for a while, but as I'd worked from a laptop I've put...

I've been having some strange issues with my Mac Pro over the last couple of days. It seems that after it wakes from sleep, it restarts. But this is not a soft restart and it is not due to issues such as this. The symptoms are as follows: Wake from sleep. Monitors turn on, everything seems...

Hi all, Apple hasn't updated their page on power consumption (yet). https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201897 One great thing about the mac mini 2014 was that it had very low idle consumption - which made it perfect for a small server setup. Can we already speculate what the power consumption...

I have a late 2014 27inch imac that seems to be killing power supplies. model numbers a149, mf886LL/A, EMC2806 I started having random shutdowns. The only way to turn it back on was to reset the SMC by pulling the power cord out and discharging the capacitors. I did everything I could think...
