2 ipads and neither will charge after ios 8.02 update

We have an iPad 2 and an iPad 3 and updated them both from whatever version of 7 we were running to 8.02 last night. Now neither will charge. I've done hard restarts on both of them. I've tried both Apple chargers and different outlets. I've tried connecting it to the PC. Nothing. The 3 is nearly dead now and the 2 is dwindling rapidly. Both were charging just fine yesterday before we updated them. Any ideas?

For device connectivity issues see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, and TS4062: iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi syncing.

IPad 2 switched off and not charging after iOS 7.1 update

iPad 2 switched off and not charging after iOS 7.1 update. Pls help me. I have tested my charger. Its working in another device. But my iPad 2 is not charging with other adapters too. What to do??

Hello, 92.romil.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would make sure you are using an Apple branded cable with your iPad. If you are, the troubleshooting steps in the article below may help. The steps listed below for the iPhone and iPod still apply to your iPad.
Resolving issues
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.

My ipad 3 is not charging after ios 5 upgrade

my New ipad stopped charging after i upgraded iOS 5.1.1 , please help. It shows not charging either its connected to USB or adapter.I am using the same adapter and cable that came with ipad.

The quickest way (and really the only 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 (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). 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.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

Ipad does not display charging after ios 6 upgrade plugged in

After upgrading to iOS 6 OTA my iPad does not appear to be charging when plugged in using the default charging cable plugged into the AC outlet. The battery icon has a lightning bolt through it as if it is not plugged in.
I did a reset and this did not solve it.

Ipad 2 won't charge after ios 7.0.3 update

After the ios 7.0.3 update, I had to restore my ipad2. Now, it won't charge. I have tried different plugs and outlets. I have also reset it and restored it, again. Nothing worked. Has anyone had this problem and any luck fixing it?

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) 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 (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). 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.

IPad 5 won't charge after ios 7 upgrade

IPad doesn't load, constantly restarts, and doesn't restore after iOS 8.1 update attempt.

Hello all.
I have an iPad Air 16gb with 4g Verizon Card. My iPad was working perfect until I attempted to update to iOS 8.1. It went through the normal update routine but when it restarted that's where all my problems began. It would go almost to where the iOS would kick on but I got the Apple blue screen of death for about 2 seconds and then it would restart. It's been going through these motions ever since never going into iOS. After doing some research, I finally found out how to emergency restore the iPad by turning it off and turning it back on holding the home button until the itunes/lightning plug symbols come on the screen. Plugged it into my computer, loaded itunes, and attempted to restore. I downloaded a fresh iOS 8.1 update and the iPad would turn off and turn back on with the update bar below the apple symbol. After the bar appeared, the bar remained unchanged so nothing even loaded. Then a few minutes later, I received "itunes could not connect to this iphone. an unknown error occured (0xE8000084)." and then got the "iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (4013)." Not really sure why it's saying iPhone either. I tried this three times getting the same result. I just tried restarting the computer and doing it again and yet I get the same result. Does anyone have any clue why this is happening and how to fix this? This is very frustrating because I'm in the military stationed in Italy but I'm about 3 hours away from the nearest Apple store and, not to imply anything, but they may not even speak English and having to take the train risking nothing getting solved. Any other ideas or help would be appreciated.

Hi rsa12985,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know that errors with iTunes errors and issues with your iPad not turning on can both be very frustrating and concerning. In this situation, with the unknown error 4013, I would suggest following the steps located in the attached article.
iOS: Restore errors 4005, 4013, and 4014 - Apple Support
Best regards,

IPad and iPhone runtime errors after ios 6 update at one site I use

I use an I pad and iPhone 4S. Did iOS 6 updates and have no problems. However today I went to one site, the NGC collectors society ( registery section requiring sign in) that I use and get the following error below. I have cleared the cookies on my iPad and restarted, but still get the same error. I also made sure java script was on. The same with the iPhone. So far this is the only problem I have had with the new ios6. The site works fine with my laptop which is a MacBook Pro that is updated with the latest system software.
Server Error in '/' Application.
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application.

Mophie juice pack stopped charging after iOS 7.1 update

iPhone 5 + Mophie juice box air
Mophie worked just fine for almost 9 months, then after upgrading the iPhone to iOS 7.1, the mophie will no longer charge nor charge the phone! How do I get this working again?

wow just had a post removed because it wasnt technical and constructive. So I'll stick to the facts.
ios7 introduced software that now requires charge cables to handshake with the device. This handshake comes in the form of an encrypted key stored in the cable/charge/accessory.
If the handshake fails then the accessory is rejected and all features/charging are disabled.
There are seveal ways to fix this.
1 - buy certified apple products
2 - turn off the device and while the logo is spinning plug it in to charge, this prevents auto power on from turning on the device and again blocking the usb cable from charging the phone
3 - use a device that does not require hardware/software blocked charge devices and accessories.
If you send any official certified products back they will be replaced.
Personally I have bought a samsung s5 and my company has removed over 600 apple devices because of this issue effecting remote emergency response workers.
I hope this reply has been technical enough and is constructive in its response on how to avoid problems with using accessories that no longer work due to softwear errors/glitches on handsets and in particular the Apple iPhone with ligntning connectors
From a technical standpoint, I was surprised to learn when taking in 30-40 accessories and cables that the genius bar informed me I must purchase certified accessories for the 600 phones which I had no idea how to tell which were certified and which wernt. This came to the sum of 2 cables for 600 phones, or $30,000 AUD. It was cheaper for us to simply remove the faulty devices from our support line given this may happen in the future and the issue has still not been resolved after months of complaints by people on these forums.

IPad Air Apps keep crashing after iOS 7.1 Update

Hi, I just upgraded to ios 7.1 on my ipad air. Everything was working fine before the update. But after, everytime I try to open any app, it attempts to start, but then immediately crashes. Even when I download an app from the app store, it still crashes. I have tried everything (restart, reset, hard reset, etc.) and I can't think of anything else to do but replace it which I don't want to do.

Hello jscott1997,
It sounds like all your apps are closing when you open them, even new apps are doing the same thing. I recommend starting by closing all the open apps on the phone:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that and restart the phone and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If it persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes with this article:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
And restore it from your backup with the steps in the following article. These steps will erase, and re install the iOS software, so that when you restore from the back up it is not restoring on top of the previous iOS installation:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

IPad mini retina constantly reboots after iOS 8.1 update - help!

Hello,
I've downloaded on iPad mini Retina 16 GB iOS 8.1 update and installed it directly from the device (so no iTunes involvement). After it got installed with black apple on white screen (process seemed to be finished) - it started rebooting, but instead of starting up it shows shortly (for just a second) blue screen, after goes black and then reboots again - and all this in constant flux: white screen with black apple - blue flash - black screen - white screen with apple. Connecting to iTunes doesn't make anything - it doesn't recognise the device while in state of reboot.
What can I do?
Help!

Hey there,
Got exactly the same problem here. Can't even reset/ shut off the device, so it keeps on flashing with the blue screen.

My iPad 4 Won't Charge after iOS 7.0.3 "Upgrade"

After upgrading operating system as requested by Apple, my iPad will no longer charge. It won't charge from USB, it won't charge from Apple branded wall mounted charger and it won't charge from either source with one of two Apple branded sync cables I have tried. Both the cables and both sources of power work fine with my iPod Classic.
The iPad now has no power at all, so no form of two button re-set will work.
I have to say I am a REALLY disappointed customer.

Hi,
From what you have said two things may have happened:
1) There is a glitch in iOS 7 meaning it does not recognise any chargers.
2) During the upgrade progress, the internal battery or the internal charger broke in your iPad.
Hope this helps!

Ipad 2 won't charge after IOS 7 Update

Tried everything under the sun. Using an authorized Apple charger, reset to default, you name it...
THIS IS NOT COINCIDENTAL
People everywhere are all experiencing this same issue due to the IOS 7 update.
I am an avid user and huge Apple advocate, but this is really leaving a bad taste in my mouth, and I'm not alone.
Apple MUST do something about this. Release a fix or make good on it. The world is watching and so far, APPLE IS FAILING.
Steve Jobs would never let this happen and treat loyal customers this way. Make it right or risk losing the good standing that built this company.

IPad Air - no ringer sounds after ios 8.3 update

since updating to ios 8.3, my iPad Air has no notification or ringer sounds on apps. eg I'm unable to use the Alarmed app as there's no sound. The volume works ok on music and movies.
For 2 days after the update, the home screen showed the Ringer icon flashing On and Off on the home screen when I woke the iPad up. (it's stopped this although the fault remains).
I have held the home and power button and rebooted, but this doesn't solve the issue.
Any suggestions please?
I only updated from iOS 7 recently as was trying to avoid the dreaded update bugs....iOS 7 crashed. So does 8.3.

I'm not 100% sure that I know what you mean by "reset/restore." If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

IPad stuck in recovery mode after iOS 7.1 update how do I fix this?

How do I fix this ?????

Is this how you do the restore/recovery?
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
