My iphone 5 says its charging but it isn't. I have a Apple charger. The problem is sporadic.

Hi gotwaxed,
If your iPhone is not charging while plugged into the wall adapter, then I'd like you to please follow the information outlined below to help resolve the issue.
If the battery doesn’t charge
If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:
Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.
Get more help
If your device still doesn't charge or you still see an alert after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.
If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Have a good one,
Alex H.

    Thanks for the added information, the screenshot did not get posted but that is ok.
    These steps should resolve the issue on your Mac:
    Double-click on the link for Uninstall Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 at Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers.
    Check if the Install link is now available in the Adobe Application Manager.
    If not, install and run the Adobe Cleaner Tool to remove any traces of Premiere Pro. It can be downloaded from here: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html.
    The Install link should now be available in the Adobe Application Manager.

  • IPod Touch says it's charged, but it isn't! No warranty, Apple store?

    Hi, So I have a pretty old itouch thats been having quite a few issues.
    The charging/connector jack on my touch is slightly busted to I have to hold the chord at just the right angle this isn't a huge problem, its just inconvenient.
    My main problem is that every time I connect my itouch to a wall charger or pc, my ipod will show the plug symbol on the battery showing that its at full battery, even though its at about 10%! I have to unplug it and replug it in numerous amount of times to finally get the lightning bolt sign to show up (showing that its charging.
    Theres more to it though; when my itouch shows the plug icon showing that it's charged (even though it isn't), the battery will rapidly drain. Because of this, I have to keep constant watch over my ipod making sure that the plug icon wont show up. If I leave it charging over night, it will wind up dead because the lightning bolt icon will switch to the plug icon sometime during the night, and the battery will completely drain within 10 minutes (even if its at 100%!)
    My warranty is a little over two years out of date, but do you think that if I took it to an apple store they could do anything?
    Thanks!
    Thanks.

  • Firefox 4 would not work. I uninstalled and reinstalled. Wouldn't work. Uninstalled and went back to 3.6. Won't work or uninstall. Says its running but it isn't. Cannot unistall or make it work. What do I do?

    After I upgraded to Firefox 4 nothing worked very well. It was slow, crashed a lot and froze, so I uninstalled and downloaded and installed again but then it wouldn't work at all. So uninstalled again. I decided to try 3.6 again as it worked well before , but now it won't work. I can't uninstall because it says Firefox is running and to close it but I have nothing open so how do I close something that isn't open? Never had trouble with Firefox but I'm about done with it. Please advise as to how to fix this. Firefox was in safe mode then it wasn't. What a mess.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.0.2. my wifi says its connected but doesn't work now. It doesn't matter what wifi network I connect to. It worked before updating my phone. I can no longer use facetime or use wifi at all. I'm not sure what to do to fix it.

    I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.0.2. my wifi says its connected but doesn't work now. It doesn't matter what wifi network I connect to. It worked before updating my phone. I can no longer use facetime or use wifi at all. I'm not sure what to do to fix it.

    I'm having similar issues with my phone.  I got my first iPhone recently, only had an iPod touch gen4 for a little over a year.  Updated to 6.0.2 when we got the phone (iPhone 5) a few days before Christmas.  When I got home on the evening of January 11, my phone would not connect the router anymore.  I was able to get it to connect after resetting the phone and the router, updating the router, and manually connecting.  That laste for a few minutes and then wouldn't work anymore.   I live in an area with very limited service, we have a network extender installed to help, and I am barely getting a 3G signal at times.
    My wife's iPad 4, my touchiPod 4, and all of our laptops are working just fine on the router.  When I dropped my kid off at school today, I noticed that I am not even seeing the school network anymore from the parking lot where before I got 3 or 4 bars and could connect to their wifi when I was there.  Today my phone goes back and forth between seeing my home network but not connecting, to not even seeing the network at all even from the same room that the router is in.
    Hope Apple fixes this problem soon..............

  • Okay so my iphone says its connected to the internet but the internet only works for games so i cant use things like facebook twitter or youtube PLZ TELL ME HOW TO FIX THISf

    Okay so my iphone says its connected to the internet but the internet only works for games so i cant use things like facebook twitter or youtube PLZ TELL ME HOW TO FIX THISf by the way it an iphone 4s and i have never encountered this problem before my dads iphone is the same after we updated to ios 8.1.1 but my mum hasnt updated yet and hers is fine

    If deleting then reinstalling the apps doesn't work, then contact the app developer for support.
    It sounds, though, like your internet connection is simply very slow.
    Try making a backup, then restoring the iPhone as new, and testing again.

  • My iphone says its up to date but new software is now avaliable

    I have the most up to date itunes and my iphone says that my software is up to date. However, I know the IOS 7 came out today. How can I get this update?

    Ditto what Lawrence Finch said.
    But the smarter decision to make is wait a week and let others work out the inevitable kinks. A few thousand select beta testers is no comparison to hundred's of million regular users. I guarantee there will be minor to major issues found with iOS 7, over the next few days.
    I am not disparaging Apple because it is impossible to account for every possible scenario and configuration permutation.
    So, don't be so anxious! Patience is definately a virtue in this situation.
    Besides, waiting a few days or a week will save you the utter frustration of having to restart your iOS7 update download due to lost server connections.

  • I pod nano. wont charge.. ( it says its done but its not)

    i bought a 2gb ipod nano. when i connectd it to my computer, it died. and it wouldnt charge. so today i bought the power adapter and plugged it in to that. it says its charging for a bit, than it says its done. in like 2 minutes. then i unplug it from the charger, it has only a little battery "juice". (the battery indicator is red and on the empty side.
    anyone know anything i can do?

    See: iPod battery doesn't charge.
    If none of the above help, then it's probably a service issue.
    You can arrange online service here.
    Service request.
    Or if an Apple store is near you, take it there and have them check your iPod.

    Music wont play on my phone it says its there but its greyed out and wont play what do i do? Ive already re downloaded the music but its not playing on my iphone.

    Ok i think i have found out how to do it. Unplug your i phone, go to settings and then reset then reset all data and settings. This will warn you that it is going to erase eveything on your phone.
    DO NOT BACK UP BEFORE HAND
    then restart your phone and restore back up from when you donwloaded the new IOS5. This should sort out your problem :-)

  • Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not

    Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not
    Has anyone seen this. It seems to happen with ARD 3, have not seen this in ARD 2.
    I go to the Install Packages on Target Computers, put in: 10.4.7 Combo (for the correct CPU, PPC or Intel), security updates, QT 7.1.2, etc.
    Push it to Macs I can connect to, observe and control.
    The progress bar copies the files (in some instances it does not) and then it just hangs there, bar does not move, Installs never finish, not good, very odd.

    Is it the same clients that have the problem every time? Are those clients doing anything cpu intensive? Have you tried rebooting the affected clients?
    Maybe try a smaller package on those clients.
