No, 1 amp is 1000 milliamp your power supply will only deliver 600 milliamp or .6 of an amp.

Can you use a ac to dc power supply rated 12 V at 1.0 A for a device that needs 7.5 V at 1.4 A?
You can't. Buy the correct power supply.
Can you reduce 12 volt 5 amp powers supply to power a 12 volt to 150 milliamp camera?
You don't need to reduce the power supply. A device will only draw as much as it needs. A power supply of 12 volts 5 amps is the same as 12 volts 5000 mA. So you see that the power supply has more that ample capacity to operate a 150 mA camera. The thing to watch for is that both supply and camera need the same type of voltage, be it AC or DC. You can not cross that up and use AC on a DC device or vice versa.
Can you use a 12 volts 3 amp power supply on a 12 volt 500 milliamp device?
Your power supply can supply 1 A, but your device requires 2 A. So the power supply will be overloaded. So the simple answer is no.
What is the power of a power supply?

Can you use a power supply with more amps and not fry the unit?
you will need to be allot more specific on what you are trying to do here. what is the difference in amps. what is the device Generally speaking it is good practice to only use the power supply that the device is rated for. the biggest issue you will have is this Power = voltage * current (simple version) if the power supply you had was 12v at 1 amps then you ca supply 12Watts of power if the power supply you had was 12v at 10 amps then you can supply 120Watts of power Just because you can supply 10 amps, and all you need is one, means your power supply is bigger than it needs to be. The device will draw what it is intended to draw. Just make sure the voltage matches.

Can I use 1.5 amp power supply to operate a 220 miliamp device?
yes, as long as the voltage is the same, the device will only take what it needs as far as amperage.
Which device gives the power supply in computer?

How can one find out how to switch mode power supply?
There are quite a number of various ways that one can find out how to switch mode power supply. This depends on what device the mode of needs to be switched. The device's website would be the best way to find out. One could also contact the customer support services of the device's provider.
Can you power a 9v 700ma device with a 9v 300ma adaptor?
No. The device will try to draw 700 milliamps which will overload the 300 milliamp adapter most likely causing it to burn out and possibly catch fire.
