this is giving trouble up loading photos of my iPhone

This power supply has 5 caps in it I replaced 4 of them it had Tapcon brand in it I did not even power it ON with out looking what brand caps it had

Here are the caps that I put in

Two caps 2200uf@25 volts FR
One cap 470uf@50 volts KZE
One cap 330uf@50 volts KZE
The last two caps were 25 volts Tapcons
That what I had on hand that would fit for that voltage I had 10,16 but no 25,35 volt ones

Yeah, it can probably do that. Seems like a relatively modern design (pcb was made in 46th week of 2013), plenty of input filtering (cheap power supplies often skip this) and lots of heatsinks where they need to be.
Taicon is a good brand of capacitors, the power supply was probably running very hot for a long time.. even the best capacitors out there eventually fail

Looks nice to me, thick heatsinks on the output rectifiers and mosfet :-D
All the filtering on the input, not cheap-n-nasty.
