Car not charging Apple products

I recently bought a 2012 VW Jetta and for some reason, Apple products will not charge in either one of the power points, while other devices (GPS, an Android phone, etc.) charge perfectly fine. The specific Apple products I am having trouble with: a brand new iPod Nano 7th gen., and an iPhone 5 bought in April (both charge fine in other cars).
The lightning charger I have is brand new and works in other cars, just not my new Jetta.
I have tried turning my iPhone and iPod on and off with no luck. I have also used a 30-pin to lightning connector and using an old Apple USB charge cord and still nothing.
Any ideas?

The problem is not the iPhone/iPod.
The problem is the charger.
This charger plugs into cigarrete lighter/power point?
Sounds like the charger may not be making a good contact in the socket.
What brand is it?

    Yes, if you purchased it in an Apple store, they should be able to assist you.  Bring your MBP with you as well as the Drive.

  • How can I text someone from my iPhone and iPad if there phone is not an apple product?

    How can I
    someone from my iPhone and iPad if there phone is not an apple product?

    The iMessage app on an iPhone can send SMS messages when an iMessage path is not available; on an iPad it cannot, because SMS is an adjunct to the voice telephone system, which the iPad does not use.

  • (not charging) - Apple support let down. Help?

    I have a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running 10.5.7
    Recently the macbook stopped charging the battery. I have multiple adapters, none of which charge the battery.
    The macbook is just out of warranty when this happened. I called apple regarding it, was told this was one time call they'd allow without charging and was told to reset the pram/smc. Neither did anything. Battery would still not charge and when the adapter is plugged in it said (not charging). Apple rep said to purchase new battery over the phone and all would be be good. I ask specifically if there could be other damage internally - they denied that as a possibility.
    Fastforward to purchasing new battery for macbook. Return home and battery has 30% charge out of the box. Plug in adapter = (not charging)
    Can anybody offer any solution that may help my problem. I am really frustrated I have to go return a new battery and prbably pay the restocking fee for opening it because of the misdirection from apple support.

    You know, I would like to think that they would have been that helpful but actually i found resolution in this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2115121&tstart=0
    I followed iyacyas notion that maybe the dc connector was damaged, but rather than purchase a new one, i disassembled my macbook down to the dc connector and completely removed it. I did a quick air blow on all the parts and then reassembled... Now i got an orange/green light and charging battery!
    Too bad about the restocking fee though but atleast there is some relief!

  • Is it possible to get a refund for a case i bought at the store but its not an apple product?

    I bought a kate spade plastic case at the store 2 months ago and even the first day of having it on my iPhone I had multiple issues with it. However, I couldn't return it because I was away at school. I went into the Apple store and asked about the possibility of getting a refund for the case but they said it was a third party product and to contact the manufacturer. I called kate spade and since i wanted a refund and purchased at the apple store there was nothing they could do and to ask the apple store for my money back because thats where I purchased it. Am I ever going to get a refund and what should I do at this point?
    Thanks

  • I can't back up my iphotos to an external memory (Not an apple product) wont let me, please help. . .  thanks

    need help/intstruction in backing up my iphoto to an external drive . . . tried suggestions over Youtube and several other internet sources, unsuccessful, please help. thanks. . . .

    If your external drive is formatted with the NTFS file system (Windows) OS X can not write to it without installing a third party utility in OS X.
    Format the external drive with the FAT file system and it will be compatible with OS X and Windows.

  • It seems that viber here in Oman is not working on all Apple products.  I called up my service provider and I was told they have not blocked the app.  Suprisingly my colleagues using samsung is not experiencing the same problem. Please help..

    I am living and working here in the sultanate of Oman.  Its been two days that I have not been able to use viber on my iPhone unless I use VPN.  I talked to colleagues who have iPhones and other apple devices and they said they are also experiencing the same problem.  I tried to call up my service provider (NAWRAS) and they informed me that the problem is not on their side, that they have not blocked the app.  Surprisingly, when I asked my colleagues using samsung, they said the app is working just fine.  What seems to be the problem?  Are the codecs (I hope I am using the right terms here) used by viber now are similar to that of the other messaging blocked apps like Tango, weChat and skype?
    Please help us on this. Thank you!

    Maybe its a Viber problem. As that is not an Apple product, why don't you try and contact the developer?

    bluetooth. When turned on on ipad canot found other device. Nevertheless the ipad can be found by other devices and paired, transfer of data cannot be done since on ipad the paired device is shown as not connected. Is it that the other device is not an apple product?

    The transfer of data by Bluetooth is not supported on the iPad. Here are the supported Bluetooth profiles.

  • 3GS will not charge at all

    My iPhone was working fine today, when I plugged it into my car charger it did not charge or even act like it was plugged in. When I got home I plugged it into a wall charger (apple product), then another (3rd party), then an ipad2 charger, still no reaction. I tried to also plug into the pc I sync and back it up to with the same result.
    I have tried restarting the pc, checking for updates (software is up to date), hard reset, soft(?) wipe, and now a complete wipe of the phone. Now I am left with 11% battery and nothing on the phone.
    Am I alone?  I had updated to 5.1.1 in the last few days. The iPhone seemed to be functioning fine up until this happened.  I have a backup on the computer from this morning but since I can't connect, I can't restore.

    That is plan Z, for tomorrow.  Thanks.
    Was hoping someone had a easy fix.
