Can you use after market charging accessories on the 5s? My 5s recognizes the item but will not charge. I've tried two after market power cords (they work) and 3 adapters I put on my old 4s power cord. Only the Apple cord works.

I've tried using my sister's after market power cord and it recognizes that an accessory has been plugged in but it won't charge. The cord does charge my sister's 5. I've also purchased 3 adapters and put them on my 4s power cords and the same thing happens. Only the power cord they came with the phone will charge it. Does anyone know if this is a new thing will all
5s iPhones or just mine?
Thanks!

New to iOS 7. Not just your iPhone 5S. There have been several
injuries and a few deaths due to 3rd party chargers - use the
supplied charger and cord.

    If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
    This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
    If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

  • IPod touch recognizes it is plugged in and has low battery but will not charge no matter what it is connected to! Suggestions????

    After a year of owning my iPod touch 4g it suddenly stopped charging on my computer and outlet addapter.  It still shows the two pronged plug icon that recognizes the iPod is connected to something but even as the battery level goes below twenty percent it will not charge. Still functions well and even connects to iTunes.

    If it is still under warrenty which you can find out from here or if you know it's under one year old bring it to the Apple Store.

  • TS3499 macbook recognises but will not charge new battery

    I was advised to buy a new charger last week and have just been advised by an apple employee to buy a new battery for my MacBook 2009 and i am having the same issue as my old battery.
    The Mac reconognises the battery but will not charge or run off the battery.
    Just spent £150 in total on new charger and battery but still having the same problem as before.
    I have downloaded the firmware update but my Mac is already running the latest software.

  • Battery charges when asleep but will NOT charge while awake

    Hello -
    By battery will charge when off/asleep but will not charge while awake. It just slowly drains to nothing and dies even though adapter is plugged in. magsafe adapter light is green when open/on and orange when off/asleep and lights on battery indicate charging while in the latter state. still using stock battery that came with computer when I got it a few years ago, so it's not new by any means, but when fully charged lasts as long as it used to. I would think maybe charger is issue, but it DOES charge, just not while awake. not sure why computer wouldn't still work correctly while plugged in if in battery indicator it says power source is "power adapter," but its not. I have tried resetting PMU and calibrating battery. the combo of the two seemed to work when having issue a few months ago, but it just started doing it again. frustrating because once it dies I have to wait several hours until its fully charged again, so it cramps the workflow... any ideas? battery info from profiler below.
    Cheers,
    Ian

    Scott - Your answer ultimately led me to the answer, albeit months later, after much internal deliberation and some trial and error... thanks!
    Ruled out battery (as crazy as that sounds - it's had a bajillion cycles) as it didn't make sense that battery would charge but wouldn't work while awake. I have a friend whose battery is completely shot and his still works as long as magsafe is plugged in, and mine wouldn't even do that. tried another adapter and that worked. then tried mine in a different plug. so in the end, turns out I had a bum powerstrip... mag safe / battery recharge works properly when just plugged in somewhere different.
    So no need to buy a new charger or battery (yet!)
    thanks to all,
    Ian

  • My macbook(2008) has been working well until a few hours ago. I tried plugging it in to several outlets but the light stays green no matter what, It will not charge. Also it will not stay on or turn on if I unplug it from the outlet, anyone have any idea

    My macbook(2008) has been working well until a few hours ago. I tried plugging it in to several outlets but the light stays green no matter what, It will not charge on any outlet. Also it will not start when it is unplugged when my battery is at 50%. It also will shut down immediately if I unplug it from the charger, even though it says it isnt being charged by it. Can anyone help with this problem?

    So you have the 13" aluminum notebook that just says "MacBook" on the display, correct?
    You can get a new battery for $100 from Other World Computing here.
    Alternatively, you can get one through Apple for $130 here.
    I personally would go through OWC - they're a highly-recommended third party for these kinds of parts and their batteries work just as well as Apple's.

  • My ipod connects to the computer but will not charge, can you help?

    My ipod will not charge. I have tried charging via the mains and via the computer. The computer recognises it but it still won't charge. Any ideas as to what the problem might be?

    See the not-charging topic of:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    Another charging source?
    Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and cracked or broken plastic.

    I have an older Ipod classic it plays on everything i have . Recently replaced the battery because it would not take charg .After new battery it plays through several defferent devices but it will not CHARG !!!    HELP!!!!

    Not Charge
    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - 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.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My Iphone 4 will not charge after Ios7 update, does anyone know how to fix ?, My Iphone 4 will not charge after Ios7 update, does anyone know how to fix ?

    My Iphone 4 will not charge after ipdate to IOS 7.0.4, Does anyone have a solution ? I have tried apple cables and chargers. I see many have the same issue. Anyone made progress ?

    No offence, but as with quite a few others, my Iphone stopped charging on mains after iOS 7.0.4 update too.
    Not sure you can categorically advise that "it simply is not a software issue" when so many different people are having the same symptoms after updating their iOS   Just have a quick Google!
    Luckily my (original Apple) cable will still allow recharging via USB to a laptop. So, process of elimination would point to a bricked charger that was working faultlessly up until the iOS 7.0.4 update was applied. Seems quite a stretch to be a coincidence.
    Look forward to an explanation ..... and an update? ......

  • My iPhone 4 will charge on a wall socket but WILL NOT charge on computer or even connect to the computer and show up???

    My iPhone 4 will not connect to my MacBookPro. It will not charge on my MacBookPro, but it will charge on a wall socket and it will play music in a 3rd party speaker system??
    This is extremely frustrating not only can I not back up my iPhone but I also can not update its OS etc.

    Have you tried other USB Sockets on the MBP?
    Have you tried other devices in these USB sockets?, do these work?
    Sounds like a fault on the Macbook

  • Itouch will charge on wall charger, but will not charge or show up when I plug it into the computer. All I get is a double beep and nothing happens. I uninstalled and re installed itunes. I shut down the computer and shut down the itouch. What next?

    I touch will not charge or show up on the computer. It charges on the wall charger. I uninstalled and re-installed itunes and I also restarted the itouch and the computer. What next?

    Play it safe with the charging.  Use the wall charger for at least an hour and then connect to the computer.  If iTunes still denies that it exists, go here:

  • TS2771 Ipod connects to tv, but will not charge or sync

    My ipod was charging fine on my drive home. I connected it to my tv with the video cable and was watching netflix. Then I got a message that the battery was at less than 20%, even though the ipod had been connected to the wall charger the entire time I was watching.
    I've tried every charger, every cable, every dock, and every computer I own now, and it will not charge with any of them. Neither my desktop or laptop will recognize that it is connected. The ipod never shows that it is connected or charging. I tried pushing the power & home buttons to reset it and still have the same problem. The reset made no difference. And I'm low on power so there's not much else I can do before it completely runs out of charge.
    Any idea why it would give out on me so suddenly, or what I can do to fix it?
