Anyone else have a problem with the charging plug catching on the aluminum backplate?

Relatively new Ipad - after charging the unit, disconnected the charging plug and it caught on the backplate.  Anyone else have this problem?

This problem arose today.  When I removed the plug, the plug pulled on the Ipad2, specifically the thin aluminum strip between the plug's receptical and the Ipad2's front.  No functional damage...the unit still works and charges, but now that thin aluminum strip is displaced.  The plug itself appears to be the culprit.  Looking at the plug that connects to the Ipad2 (the side with the graphic), there are 2 areas which I presume provides tension when the plug is inserted into the unit.  One of those areas is displaced, and became caught with the thin aluminum strip during the plug's removal.

  • Does anyone else have a problem with their charger getting extremely hot?

    When I charge my macbook pro, the charger gets soooo hot- Should I get a new one or does apple repair them? It is so hot I can't touch it sometimes.

    I would take it to an Apple Retail Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider  (AASP) for evaluation, or call your nearest Apple Contact Center. Visit the Genius Bar at the Apple Retail Store,  make a reservation.

  • Anyone else have a problem with tight fitting plug?

    My macbook Pro was purchased in December and is very tight when plugging in or removing from a mains socket.
    Today a noticed a couple of black marks on the bottom 2 metal pins.  It may just be where theyve scarped inside the socket, but it also looks a bit like minor scorching.  My sister has an older macbook cable with different plug (older one from earlier macbook) and this isnt as difficult to plug in.
    I was worried about the black marks, but hers has them too.
    Anybody elses have a tight plug?  Its the same in various sockets...

    I have the same issue, my macbook does'nt live the house much so the plugs always in, but its a job to get it out of the wall or power lead socket.

  • Does anyone else have this problem with the new up...

    in order for me to dial or use the keypad, i have to press the end key before dialing any numbers and then to remove the numbers and the dialing bar, i have to clear all the numbers manually by press the C button then i can press the end key to take off the dialing bar. another problem i have is that when i put my profile on silent, the phone doesn't vibrate the screen and lights only flash like they normally do. has anyone else had this problem? im guessing there are more flaws with the new update but im still looking into it.

  • Anyone else have this problem with the iPhone 3G S?

    i have a iPhone 3G S white 32 gb abd the sleep button does not work. have tried all kinds of restarts and restores. so I'm just wondering if anyone else has this problem? (getting it replaced by Apple.)

    The sleep button is hardware - if that ain't working, an Apple replacement is definitely the way to go.

  • Is anyone else having a problem with a "no service" issue on the iPhone 5?

    There are times my phone will go to "No Service" when the signal is low. I just got the iPhone 5. I did not have this problem with my 4. It doesn't say "searching..." it just automatically says "No Service" for a few seconds and then back to having bars. It comes and goes. I had my phone replaced at the Genius Bar and still have this problem. Is anyone else also having this problem? I hope it's just a software issue they will solve with an iOS update.

    I have this problem all the time. when i get back home from a overseas trip (about 3-4 times a month) I have to turn airplane mode of and on a few times to get rid of the "No Service" message.

  • Anyone else have this problem with mail on 4s ?

    Whenever I load mail app , my mail would say downloading on the bottom.. it would try to download 150 emails.. than it says downloading 300 emails . Anyone else ahve this problem ? This just started with IOS 7  and I have no clue how to fix this . My phone has very little remaining storage so the mail app is unable to download all of the emails causing my mail app to crash . I can't even use other apps at that point, every thing is crashing.
    And if I free up more space, the mail app just eats up that too!! How do I get the mail app to stop downloading so many emails when I open it ?

    It depends on what type of email account you are using. I am using outlook and when I enter settings, mail contacts and calendars, select on the account (outlook ), it give me the option for mail days to sink. I am not sure about any other accounts and how they work. Good luck

  • I am just wondering does anyone else have a problem in lightroom 4 where some of the tools dont work

    does anyone else have the problem of some tools not working in lightroom 4? for eg. skin smoothing and iris enhance??

    The background music I chose was a standard Apple Loop, but on playback it sounds like someone has cut the music, each time the Loop connects to the extended loops I made when I dragged the end of the initial loop out over a short distance? Did I do it wrong?
    When you extend the loop by dragging the the end of the loop (you'll see a bracket as cursor), you will extend the loop by silence and hear a sharp cut. To make the loop longer, loop it. Grab it in a way, that you'll see a curved arrow as pointer and not the bracket.

  • HT1338 There's not enough contrast in my 2012 MacBook Air display. Does anyone else have a problem with this? Can I fix it?

    When I watch streaming shows or movies on my Air the contrast is lousy. If it's a dark scene you can hardly see anything. Does anyone else have this issue? I've got it as bright as it lets me go.

    It seems that my pioneer DVD drive ate my disc and no matter what I do, I can't get it out.
    What have you done so far?  Provide details on what you have done to date in the way of troubleshooting and the results.  In doing so, the helpers here will avoid the "been there done that" response scenerio. 
    Have you tried any of the suggestions mentioned in this thread:  The Stuck CD/DVD Thread
    how hard is it to take the iMac apart?
    If your model iMac is not user repairable, do a Google search for DIY instructions.  Two places to start is iFixit and YouTube's tutorials.
    What is a good replacement for it?
    External CD/DVD burners.  Check out OWC & Lacie websites for CD/DVD drives.  Make sure you read the system requirements for the drives.
    Good luck!

  • Does anyone else have this problem with the iTunes visualizer?

    I rarely use the iTunes visualizer but, when I do, it gives me the option of either using the newer one or the classic one. I like to use the new one but the problem is that I can only go to "visualizer options" if I am using the classic one. In said options I could set it so that the song info (song title, artist, album title and artwork) stays in the bottom left corner for the entire song. The few times I use the visualizer, I do like to have it up for the whole song--I just think it looks cool, I don't know...
    Anyway, since I can't get the options for the new visualizer, the song info always fades away after the first five seconds or so of the song.
    Anyone else realize this?? And does it annoy anyone else lol?

    Well, I did a search on apple.com and found this:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-news/2010/04/the-hidden-itunes-visualizer-con trols.html
    "The Visualizer -- graphics that swoop and pulse with the music -- has been part of iTunes' DNA from the beginning. And because its creators wanted to interact with the graphics in real time as well as watch them, Visualizer includes some single keystroke commands that change what you see while it runs. But these commands are hidden by default lest they obstruct the graphics.
    Use the Show/Hide Visualizer command in the View menu to turn Visualizer on and off, and use the Visualizer menu to select among the choices. If the choice you're using has hidden commands you can see them for a brief time by typing ? while a song is playing and Visualizer is visible. The keystrokes will work regardless of whether the help menu is showing, so if you memorize them it's possible to add Virtuoso Visualizer Player to your list of accomplishments. (For the Visualizer choice called Jelly, available only in iTunes for Mac, try holding the keys down, especially the number keys, for maximum effect.")
    Not that you care. >.<

  • HT1947 Does anyone else have my problem with atv3? Plays films in iTunes without any problems but on music every time I use the remote app on my iPhone 3GS it stops playing after around 5 tracks in. Anyone having this problem?

    Does anyone share my problem with atv3 I can play films through iTunes without any problems. When I start playing music using the remote app on my iPhone 3GS after around 5 tracks in it just stops playing and seems to lose my connection. Hoping this is human error on my part?

    I think this is probably a sign that your network could be better than it is.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

  • HT202157 Does anyone else have a problem with the latest Apple TV update?  My Apple TV no longer can load movies from my iTunes library, including ones I've already watched or were watching.  Can I roll back this update, and if so, how?

    After updating my Apple TV, it will no longer load movies from my iTunes library.  Music works, but no movies.  I've turned this puppy every which way but loose, but no joy.  Is there a way to roll back an update?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.
