HT1476 upgraded my IPOD 5 to iOS 7.0.2 and will not charge battery. when plugged in gives message "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this IPOD".

Just Upgraded my IPOD 5 to iOS 7.0.2 and it will not charge the battery anymore.
When I plug it in, it now gives the message "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this IPOD".
Anyone else have this issue after they upgraded the iOS system?
Thanks,

- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Since I downloaded the upgraded software, my charger that came with my phone says "this cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iphone"  It worked before but now it doesn't...I don't think I should have to buy a new one...

    since I upgraded to the new operating system my charger no longer works...
    It says"this cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone"

    Try checking your cable socket/lightning cable for dirt, grime, pocket lint, etc. I could not find the solution to this issue myself and after much searching I found someone stating that cleaning this out helped them immensely.
    After taking a wooden toothpick (making sure the phone was OFF first) and gently clearing out the edges and inside of the lightning socket this went away.) It is worth noting that I had a significant amount of dust or lint buildup along the edge rails which I think was causing the iphone to believe it was plugged into something when it was not.
    Try it and see, ensure you are very careful and do not use any conductive tools to clean the area in question. Compressed air also does wonders here.

  • After updating to ios 7.0.6 i keep getting an error message saying "this cable or accessory is not certified and will not work reliably with this iphone" every two minutes and its annoying

    What is up with this error message after updating saying our cables are not reliable?

    Thank you for this suggestion, but the message continues to display every couple of minutes. (e.g. "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone.)
    Not only is it annoying and concerning...this is draining my battery, as the iPhone keeps waking up to display the message over and over. Like "MartinLegodi" above, I also have no cable or accessory plugged in and only use Apple cable and products when I do.
    It's a disconcerting mystery.

  • Why does my phone keep popping up messages "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iphone" when there is no cable connected?

    Why does my phone keep popping up messages "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iphone" when there is no cable connected? This has been happening since IOS7 was installed and has become worse with 7.1. I have reset the phone several times with no change.The phone charges properly & I have never used anything but an Apple Lightning cable.

    I already cleaned the port with compressed air before submitting the problem. I since cleaned it with a toothpick and dug out some more lint. this seems to have just about fixed the problem since I have only had the error pop up 3 times since then and i was getting the error constantly before.

  • Reoccurring warning, literally every 20 seconds: "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone." I am only using Apple devices. How can I eliminate the warning?

    Please help me eliminate this repeating warning message on my iPhone 5. It occurs several times a minute. I am only using Apple devices, so the warning is in error.  "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone."

    The cable may be damaged. Try another cable.
    Make sure it properly connected at both ends.

  • HT1476 This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone

    This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone

    This is an incredibly stupid move by Apple. Nobody could convince me that it's about security and safety...
    I bought two Lightning to 30-pin Adapters to use my two 4s chargers with my 5s iPhone.
    Price on Amazon - 3$:

    Price on Apple for the same thing - 60$

    This is just a piece of metal and plastic. It's ridiculous.
    Apple, please remove this ridiculous software. I also have a car charger. Should I just throw them away because I paid a bunch of money for your new device? That's how you reward loyalty?!!

  • My phone will not charge, it says This cable or accessory is not certified an may not work reliably with this phone

    My phone will not charge it says this cable or accessory is not certified an may not work reliably with this phone? What do I do?

    Is the cable the one that came with your Apple device? Is it a replacement cable that you purchased? If it is, did you purchase an Apple certified cable?
    Cheers,

  • I keep getting an error message 'this cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPhone'. Nothing is plugged in to my phone and it's ******* me the **** off!!! Every 2 mins it pops up!

    Since the update it keeps happening and nothing is plugged in the phone. It was fine until this jarg update!! The only accessories I use are the charger and headphones what came with the phone. When my phone is on charge the error message doesn't pop up but as soon as I take it off charge booooom it pops up every two ******* mins

  • Error/warning message:  this cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this ipad

    For a few days now I have been getting this error message appearing every few minutes.  Is there a way to stop it?  it appears when nothing is attached.  I'm not charging my iPad and have not attached any cables / accessories other than the USB cable supplied when I bought it less than a year ago

    Have you tried to give your iPad a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. WHen you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and see if that helps.
    That message started with iOS7 which brought with it software that looks for signed chips in approved accessories.  If the maker of the accessory got permission from Apple, then they got signed chips to put in their  accessories, but if the manufacturer didn't get permission then the chips aren't signed and trigger that error. HOwever it's only supposed to happen when something is plugged in, which is why a reset may help. Force the iPad to reboot and see if it can figure out that there's nothing plugged in.

  • "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this iPod" It's the charger that came in the box for my iPod 5 and after I updated to IOS 7 it no longer connects to my computer, but charges in the wall with no problem.

    It still charges in the wall, but when it comes to putting songs or pictures on my iPod, it won't connect to iTunes or charge while plugged into my computer.

    - Try another cable. iOS 7 made the iPod/computer more sensiteve to cable problems

  • IPod Touch won't sync, false "this cable or accessory is not certified" and several other errors

    Helping my dad long-distance with his iPod Touch 5th generation, running 8.1.1.
    He's having several problems trying to sync the thing:
    1) "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with your iPod" error, even though he's using the cable that came with the device, when connecting to his Mac. (This happens with both certified Apple cables he owns.)
    1.1) He's unable to take screenshots of this error, even though he can take screenshots of any other screen.
    2) Won't charge when connected to his Mac (does charge when connected to his 5w cube).
    3) Connecting to Mac dones't launch iTunes, but does launch iPhoto.
    4) Sometimes, even after launching iTunes manually, the iPod doesn't show up.
    5) We we can get the iPod and iTunes to talk to each other, he gets 7/8ths through syncing, then gets the error "Some of the videos in your iTunes Library, including the video IMG0925.jpg, were not copied to the iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod." — yes, the "videos" that won't "play" on his iPod are all JPEGs.
    6) When clicking [OK] to clear problem #5, it's always followed by "iTunes cannot back up the iPod (device name) because an error occurred." Even though it was 7/8ths done before the error occurred.
    7) Issue 5 and 6 occur when connected to the Mac over wifi too. (We've tried with wifi backup both off and on.)
    7) He's randomly prompted for his iCloud password at least 3-4 times a week. Entering it doesn't make this problem go away.
    8) Tried to update to 8.1.2 (hoping it would fix some of these issues), but after tapping [Agree] in the overlay screen, he's taken back to the T&C screen with [Decline] and [Agree] buttons at the bottom, and NOTHING happens.
    So we he back up via any means, he can't upgrade, and we can't wipe and restore because he'll lose a month's worth of updates to calendar and address book.
    I'm know my way around Mac and iOS, and I'm stumped. Anybody got anything?

    After upgrading iPad 2 to iOS 7 , cannot open new tabs in safari . When pushing on " " , Safari close the application .

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
