    Series 7 Charging Duration

    I have a series 7 that supports USB-C fast charge. But I want to maintain the battery health percentage of my series 7 by buying a USB-A cable charger. I was a little doubtful about its originality because during a week of use, my battery health percentage dropped. And I was curious how much...

    Trying to connect a Nikon Coolscan III to a 16" Macbook Pro M1 with SCSI->USB A cable + USB-C hub. I need help.

    Hiya :) So my father have a lot of old dias images and negatives that he wants to scan and get onto his new M1 Pro MacBook Pro 16". He is not the most tech savvy, but buys a machine so he can have it for years. Which I'm sure will be the case with the M1 Pro as this is technically more than he...

    MBP M1Pro with USB-A & Ethernet

    We all think different. Some people like ports and some don't. Some people like adapters and hubs, while some people don't. I can understand why Apple kept only Thunderbolt ports few years ago and also why they reintroduced old-new ports on new MBPs. An objective fact. Now comes the subjective...

    Which USB "end" will be on the Series 7 watch charger?

    Will it stay as USB-A or will they finally transition to USB-C...? I'm hoping they finally go full USB-C.

    USB-A hub for 2013 MBP: recommendations?

    Hey all, For my Late 2013 MBP I picked up an USB hub made by Nedis, but it doesn't work well. Copying off the EHD to the MBP is going fast, but vice versa it's very bothersome. Two 6TB G-drive units will make lots of disk search noise, but hardly copies any files. A G-Drive 10TB will copy, but...

    Displaying content via miniport>USB-A

    Can anyone help please? My client - in their wisdom - has done away with all VGA and HDMI leads in meeting rooms. The only lead in the room leading to the display monitor on the wall, now being a single USB-A male. If I plug the meeting room USB-A male into my Macbook Air (running El Capitain...

    USB hub with both USB-C and A output?

    Hello there! I have a few USB-A peripherals that I use with my MacBook Pro (Touch bar), through a fairly common USB-A to USB-C hub. I’ve purchased a gaming PC, and I’d like to be able to switch between the two without having to manually replug every cable all the time. Does a USB-A hub with...

    Anybody with USB-A problems? (hub + rMB 2016)

    Hi all, I bought an Acer H277HU monitor with built-in hub. I am using it for keyboard dongle (Microsoft Sculpt) and USB external drive. After using it for about three days, the external drive crashed while copying and directory structure got completely damaged. Had I not been rather good at...

    Is there any usb-c to usb-a (3.1 gen 2) adapters for the Late 2016 MBP?

    Currently on the Apple website they list their usb-c to standard usb-a adapter to only support usb 3.1 gen 1 speeds (5mb/s). Is there any other adapters on the market that support gen 2 speeds (10mb/s) as the usb-c port on the new Macbook Pro 2016 is listed to be gen 2 compatible? Thanks.
