Why are all of our cords breaking, so we can not charge anything?

Why are all of the cords so cheap, and breaking?

I am pretty certain that Apple put something into iOS 6.1.4 to REJECT all 3rd-party power cords.  Ever since I updated to iOS 6.1.4, my most trusted cord (4 months old) has been saying, "You cannot charge the device with this cord".  BZZZT Apple strikes again !!
Either that, or the new "Kill your battery as quickly as possible" software in iOS 6.1.4 has been draining power so rapidly, that my 3rd-party cord cannot keep up with the massive power-draw from iOS 6.1.4 !!  Don't upgrade !!

  • Why are all the events in the XML SAX parser not activated?

    Hi everyone,
    I have written a mini server that parses XML files into SQL queries.
    Below is a segment of my code;
              try          {                                                       
                   Class.forName( JDBC_DRIVER );

                   File[] xmlFiles = directory.listFiles();

                        myEXP.XMLtoDB(xmlFile);

    }     My question is: I have taken my SQL query generated by toSQL() method in events and it worked.
    Here is the funny thing:
    Everything is correct syntax wise: No complaints what soever
    The mysql part works: Tested separately.
    So I tend to think that the problem lies within the SAX parser. I have written SAX2 parsers on this machine before and they have worked too. I tried inserting println statements all over startElement endElement etc etc only to find out that the SAX parser did not call any of the methods that I overided!! Why is that so?
    Can you guys spot where my SAX parser fails?

    I see.
    I try to correct this problem by removing super();
    so right now my code looks like this:
         static Event temp = new Event(0, 0, "null", "null", new Date(), 0, "null", 0);
         static String CurrentElement = null;
         static File XMLpath;
         static Connection db_connection;
         static XMLReader xr;
         static DefaultHandler XMLSAXhandler; 
         //Constructor,      Build the SAX Parser
         public EventXMLParser(File path, Connection connection)     {
              try     {
                   this.XMLpath = path;
                   this.db_connection = connection;
                   this.xr = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader();
                   this.XMLSAXhandler  = new DefaultHandler(); //create a new own handler
                   this.xr.setContentHandler(XMLSAXhandler);
                   this.xr.setErrorHandler(XMLSAXhandler);
                   //System.out.println("DEBUG: db_connection is " + db_connection.toString());
              catch (Exception e)     {
                   System.out.println("Constructor Error!");
                   e.printStackTrace();
         }This time, I created a new instance of default handler() which can be referenced by as the objects's XMLSAXhandler. However, that did not solve the problem, why does the problem still persist?
    Right now, there is only one instance of a default handler created. So why does all my parsing event functions still get ignored?

  • Why are all of our devises running off of the same apple I.d .They all have their own account.

    I don't know why three of our devices are running off of the same apple I.d.All three of the devices have there own ids but they are going under the same.Why???

    Because that's the way you set them up. It doesn't happen by itself.
    Odds are you plugged them all into the same computer logged in with the same account, with the same iTunes library, and restored them all from the same backup.
    Don't do that.

  • Why are all my songs now classified as 'Other' and not visible on my phone any more?

    Here's an idea of what's happened recently;
    Got a new a computer and set up my iTunes library no problem, had access to all the same music I had on my old PC.
    Just added a new album to my iTunes library, which also worked fine, but when I tried to sync it to my iPhone 5 I wasn't able to transfer anything to it.
    I used iTunes to back up my iPhone and do a full restore on the iPhone hoping that would fix the issue.
    Now my 35GBs of Music is classified as 'Other' storage, there's not enough room on the iPhone to transfer all my songs to it again and no way to delete the 'Other' storage to make space for it.
    I have tried unchecking 'Sync only checked songs and videos' and rechecking it. I have also tried unchecking and checking 'Sync Music'. Either way I go the iPhone still has 35GBs of Other storage I can't seem to remove.
    Any help or support?

    I ended up doing a Full Restore on my iPhone without restoring from a previous backup. I'm just curious what I have to do in the future to prevent this issue if I switch PC's again.

  • Why are all my movies and tv shows now on my ipad with the icloud icon?  How can i get rid of them?

    Why are all my movies and tv shows from my library now on my ipad with the icloud icon?  I have turned off all icloud related services. I have never used it.  On top of that, my ipad now gets stuck on step 5 of the sync - waiting for changes to be applied and never finishes.
    Help

    Hi, go in Settings, under Videos turn off "Show all videos"  this will remove the purchased videos to be displayed in the Video app.  The same can be done with the music.
    As for Step 5, connect you iPad and on the summary Tab, uncheck
    "Sync only checked songs and videos".  Then wait, it takes a while but this made it work for me after many restore attempts.
    good luck

  • Why are all paths in Clipping Masks and Compound Paths?

    When I open up previous versions of Illustrator files (i.e. CS5), why are all of my paths messed up. Every object is embedded in a Clipping Mask, paths are compounded and in most cases type on a path is expanded into multiple non-editable objects. This causes complete redesign. This is terrible.

    Because Illustrator accessed the PDF part of the file.
    ---> this points to corrupt files.
    How were those files transferred to your computer? Are they on a server?
    How old are they?
    Which versions were they created in?
    Did you already try to restart (the computer)?
    Any plugins installed?

    Hi,
    ( I search for iChat questions when I have finished in the iChat Forum)
    So the menu bar reads iChat, File,  Edit,  View, Buddies, Video, Window and Help
    There is no Buddy List open.
    There is no other window for iChat open.
    In the iChat Menu you only have access to Status.
    Is an item ticked in the list ?
    Is this a green (Available item) or  Red ( an Away one) ?
    Can you access the Accounts option ?  (Sitll in the iChat Menu)
    Is anything in here ticked ?
    In the Window menu any Logged in account should appear in the list  (Between the Next Chat and File Transfer items)
    It would be useful to know which version of iChat this is.
    If no account is ticked (iChat Menu > Accounts) or not showing in the Window Menu, plus you cannot determine the Status and you cannot access the Preferences then you need to access your Home Folder/Library/Preferences
    As the Library in the Home Holder is Invisible in Lion you will need the Finder's Go Menu > Go to Folder option  (you can use it in earlier OS versions if you want)
    Type in:-
    ~/Library/Preferences
    Find the file called com.apple.ichat.plist
    Drag it to the Trash and Restart iChat.
    This will lose all the settings in iChat that you have changed from Defaults but there is no way around this.

    Why are all my books that I have purchased no longer in my library?

    The problem is, if I'm in an area that I don't have service or Wi-Fi and I want to read a book that I have purchased and paid for and I can't retrieve it...it is extremely annoying. I have paid A LOT of money for MANY MANY ebooks.  I HAVE NOT DOWNLOADED THE NEW 7.0 SYSTEM BECAUSE I DO NOT LIKE IT. I HAVE IT ON MY IPHONE AND IT HAS TOTALLY SCREWED UP MY CALENDAR AND A FEW OTHER APPS.  I DID NOT WANT THE CHANGES ON THE IPAD TOO.  In other words, I have done nothing different.  My Kindle app is working great and has twice to five times more e-books in it.  The sad part is that iBooks charges more and does not get the new releases out as well and timely as Amazon.  I use Amazon more often now but I do like to keep my series together and for that reason I of still use them occasionally. 

  • Why are all my contacts suddenly 2 hours earlier than they were entered.  I just noticed this today April 24

    Why are all my entries on Icloud 2 hours earlier than they were previously entered.  I just noticed this today April 23?  They do not match what is on my Ipad or on my imac.  Looks like the clocks are not syncronised someplace.

    Your post is fascinating because your post header says "today April 24" while your post body says "today April 23"   So maybe that is related...
    Anyway, make sure all your iCloud devices have Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically = "On".
    Also, in iCloud.com, open Calendar, go to Preferences (upper right) > Advanced > and check "Enable Time Zone Support".
