Can't charge Apple BT headset through iPhone 3G Dock?

Is this correct? I plugged the BT charging cable into the Apple iPhone 3G dock. I put the iPhone in the dock to charge, and the headset in its charging port, and left it overnight. This morning I noticed the headset had lost charging!
Then I just plugged the cable into the iPhone and it charges. If that is the case, what a waste to have bought the dock.
Also will the headset charge from the cable if not plugged into the phone?
Thanks!

It looks like simply connecting the cable to the dock stops the headset from charging. I verified this by plugging in the headset, and seeing the charge light appear. I then grabbed the dock without the phone in it, and plugged it in. Headset light turned off shortly after.
Really disappointing that there is no dock solution for the headset and the 3g iPhone. I discovered this after hooking up the cable to the dock and thinking it was working, only to find my headset battery was completely drained.

    can you charge an ipad with an iphone charger?

    Yes, you will cause no damage... it will just take a lot longer...
    iPad Charging
    "The fastest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter.
    iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter.
    When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode.
    Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain."

    I've not tried it, but it should work - Personal hotspot wifi should use WPA2 Personal encryption and g or n speeds.

    Not sure if iPhone would work as a router to connect several devices eg computer via wifi to allow itunes content on computer to stream to appletv.
    I've used a mifi 3G device to accomplish this kind of thing in the past.

    How I can change my apple purchase power through visa c.c to non ?

    If you're asking how to have an Apple ID without a credit card for purchasing fee apps and media, you have to create a new ID as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534.  Be sure to follow this guide exactly.  Note that you have to start by download and installing a free app before creating the ID.  Once you have the new ID, go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, tap the existing ID, sign out, then sign in with your new ID.

    Hello! I have configured my Wireless network to support bonjour protocol. When I support mDNS in the same Vlan I can see the Apple TV with my iPhone, but I cannot see it with my iPad. Someone know if there is any different in the Bonjour protocol between the iPhone and the iPad???
    It is like if the iPad changes the process at some point...
    Thank you!

    You don't need to configure anything specific for it to work unless you had some special filtering in place already.
    What do you mean specificly by can not "see" it with your iPad?

  • Does the iPod nano 3rd Generation charge and sync in an iPhone 3G Dock?

    I wanna bye an iPhone 3G Dock. Now I have the question if I can connect my iPod nano 3rd Generation to the new dock for syncing and charging. On Apples homepage is the campatibility status set to only iPhone 3G, but I question this because older docks, like the one for the old iPod Photo works with other iPods as well.
    The dock connector on the iPhone 3G dock seems to be the same as the one on the charging cable and that cable has to be inserted in the dock. So why should it not work?
    I know I could bye the iPhone 3G cradle for the universal dock I already have, but I want to have the ability to make speakerphone conversations with the iPhone in the dock. That only works well with the original iPhone 3G dock.
    Can someone help me?

    Bit late on the old reply, but i'm using a different Apple Dock for my Nano. I have the Universal one,but it looked so big for the little Nano. I stumbled across an iPhone one by mistake, but only cost me £7 delivered, brand new.
    So in answer to your question, yes. And it enables me to get a skin on the iPod and still use the dock...

    No.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

  • How many times can a charger be plugged into an iPhone?

    I was at the Apple Store yesterday and the woman that worked there told me that you can only plug your charger into your phone a certain amount of times. She never got around to telling me how many times it was, so I am just curious becuase now I'm afraid to charge my phone more than once a day even if it gets down to below 20%. Thanks!

    Well, that has to be one of the strangest tech support suggestions I've heard. I've had my iPhone 4 for over 3 years, and charge it when convenient, for as long as I wish.

  • How can we get Apple to address bent iPhone 5 problem?

    I have a bent iPhone 5. The device had gentle wear and was enclosed in protective case. AT&T told me the bending indicates a manufacturer's defect and I should get a replacement from Apple, but Apple's online and Apple Store representatives refuse to accept responsibility. They will not acknowledge that the alumiumum frame is inherently fragile, more so than previous iPhone frames, and the device requires a higher level of caution.
    Consumers around the world report the same problem. See below.

    Apple promoted this device in part as a triumph of engineering. Thinner, yet very strong.
    So what does it take to pressure Apple to acknolwedge this product defect? And make good with its customers?

    Shame on you apple!  I have been an avid Apple fanboy for years.  I have owned all iterations of the iPhone except the iPhone 4.  I have always believed in your products.  I have sold five times as many of your products by word of mouth than I have bought, and believe me, I have owned pretty much anything with your logo on it that has been produced in the last eight years.  You were always a little bit behind the cutting edge, but I always bought your products because they simply worked.  Under the reign of Steve Jobs you did a superb job ensuring your products became extensions of the human body, synchronously living our day to day lives with us, device in hand. 
    Then I bought the iPhone 5.  From the first second, I  was a proud owner of a new idevice.  It immediately was placed in an Otterbox, where is stayed between cleanings.  When in the car or at work, it sat in a dock.  When carrying it, it was religiously carried in my front pockets.  Then when I took it out to clean last week, I noted my phone was bent.  Everything works fine.  Except for the contour of my leg impressed into the phone.  It is immaculate. 
    After a few minutes of searching the web, I was overcome by the numbers of blog posts, discussion board posts, and even youtube videos chronicling the woes of once happy iPhone 5 owners who are distraught about the conditions of their 200 to 400 dollar relatively new phones which are bent.  After visiting the apple store and being shunned by the manager, I was beginning to get the feeling that this was not the same apple company that would stand behind their product as they did in the past.  Apple's official response is that they do not cover physical damage resulting from abuse to the phone.  They do not consider their flubbed soft phone as a manufacturer's defect.  I was offered to repair my phone for 229 dollars.  It's not that I don't have the money.  I refuse to pay that on principle.  Again, shame on you apple!
    After speaking with management in their technical support department, I was offered a 50 dollar credit to use at the apple store on a new product.  I was essentially told they apologized for my inconvenience, but there is nothing they can do.  And oh by the way, you can't use the certificate towards the repair. 
    So at they point, I have lost all faith in Apple.  I have seen the gap between Apple and Android rapidly closing.  The apple ecosystem it seems has simply grown too large.  They have forgotten the roots laid by Steve Jobs in which the bottom line was user experience, not profit.  The adage, if you build it, they will come was what made you the juggernaut you have become.  
    My stable of Apple products is getting old.  It is time to replace my original iPad and the seven year old iMac in the office isn't too far behind.  Unfortunately, the sour Apple which I have recently eaten has me looking towards Google and its products.  Their cloud based products are getting pretty cool and my 1000 plus employee company has just made that jump also.  Migration is making more and more sense.  It is no wonder your stock price has gone down around 400 dollars a share and your earnings remain flat. 
    I am putting this out there in the hopes it is actually read and heard.  Leaving you, Apple, it one of the hardest breakups of my life.  I hope you change, I do!  I would still take you back if you got back on track, only I am skeptical that you won't be able to see past the arrogance you have developed now that you are too big for your britches.
