The overarching question: Can an apple device be charged on every port? I have 4 iPhones, 2 iPads. Thank you

If you highlight over the picture, you'll see that it indicates which ports are "A" Apple ports or "N/A" non-Apple ports. According to the picture, it looks like there are three ports available for Apple products.

My iPhone 4S charges in all of the ports, including the NA ones. Maybe there are some other devices that are more particular.

I have an iPhone 4S and an iPad 3. Both can be charged at the same time quite effectively by using the "A" port for the iPad and the "NA" port for the phone as described in other comments here.

There is no 'Apple port.' It has 2 standard USB charging ports that can be used to charge most any phone with the appropriate cable.

As far as I can tell, both ports are the same. We don't have an iPad, but we charged two phones at the same time and both charged. We also charged a Kindle and an Android tablet with no problems.

Hi,Yes!You will be able to charge all series of iPad and iPhone.Also almost all of smartphone and tablet.There are two output ports so you can charge two devices at same time.

I have charged 2 iphones and 2 ipads all at the same time. This is for the older iphones with the 30 pin power connection but it looks like you can buy a separate adapter for the new iphone lightning connection.

My wife charged her iPad 2 and iPhone 4s with no problems. Can't speak to the iPad 3, 4 but would imagine it should be no problem.

Yes, I can! I even can charge full my ipad 2, and still have some energy to charge any other device. And It doesn't get hot when charging. Hope this result usefull for You... And sorry... I'm just learning english...

Yes, you can use any port to charge any USB device.You will want to charge high current devices (e.g. iPad) on those ports though.

Yes and no. Each port can deliver up to 2.4amps. The non-Apple port can deliver 2.4amps to any Android or other non-Apple device that needs it. The Apple port can deliver 2.4amps to iPads. However, the total number of amps is 2.4, not 4.8. (We know this because it's a 12 watt plug, and watts = amps * volts.) So, if you have 2 devices charging, the maximum current will still be 2.4amps, split between the two devices. Any device that uses less current (e.g., 0.8amps) will use less. These statements assume that you have the proper cable.

Each port has a specific label which identifies the associated product you can charge: ie; iPad, android, iPhone , etc. best wishes for a fantastic experience! Regards JR

I am thinking that it charges once docked from your iPad. I gave it away as a gift but when I set it up all seemed to have all parts and work well once docked. If I learn more from the gifted owner, I will share more.

Unfortunately not. All 5 slots are configured with the 30 pin male plugs. You can however use the Apple 30 to 8 pin adapters. You will be able to charge the new devices using these adapters but they don't stand up quite as well and this approach doesn't work the iPads as they are too tall/heavy to stand up on the adapter. Hope this helps.

Charge Yes, Sync no. It will sync with iPad on the other ports but not the charging port.

It kinda does and doesn't- each port has unique amps to power stuff - there is a label on the side. So an iPad needs more juice than an iPhone - I also have a Nokia that requires the higher amps to charge.

If you have something that has a usb charger, you could use the other port to charge that device (depending upon what that device is). I plugged in a little rechargeable travel charger into it, and it started charging, but my iPhone didn't charge. It also doesn't connect your device to the computer. So it doesn't appear all that useful, but I think it depends on what you're plugging into it. Any kind of drive I don't think is going to connect, but some chargers would work.

Hi Mary,Yes you can...One slot is higher powered than the other and will charge faster. I took 2 cords (One Blue)(One Pink) and leave them plugged into slots. The "blue cable" is the lower powered slot and will charge IPhones fine...although not as quickly as the pink cabled slot. The "blue slot" will NOT charge an IPad. Both will charge IPhones. So you don't get confused...two IPhones will charge at the same time. One IPad & one IPhone will charge at the same time. TWO IPADS WILL NOT CHARGE AT THE SAME TIME> You do not have to use both slots at the same time. Always use the "pink" cabled slot when speed is important. It charges VERY FAST. Hope this helps. Wonderful product though. Hi Mary,Yes you can...One slot is higher powered than the other and will charge faster. I took 2 cords (One Blue)(One Pink) and leave them plugged into slots.
