[QUOTE="Suklaakakku, post: 204142"] This may sound like a daft question, but I have done something extremely daft - I have left my charger for my ibook elsewhere ( a three hour drive away ) and I would like to use my ibook. I have an IPod charger - is it possible to use that to charge my ibook by connecting it to the usb port on the ibook or is that likely to cause damage? Shops local to me have no chargers compatible with ibook - so I am stuck and will have to drive hundreds of miles either to buy one or get my own back. I am not feeling very well today so I don't really want to drive - so any advice on whether it is worth trying the usb adaptor would be greatfully received! (my instinct is that it is not going to work, and may damage my machine which is why I shan't do anything until perhaps somebody here can confirm whether it would work or not) Many thanks [/QUOTE]
