Has anyone ever experienced the situation where plugging in the USB connector to the charging source (high-power USB port or Apple charger) halfway, then pressing it in firmly, results in the iPad not charging?

Has anyone ever experienced the situation where plugging in the USB connector to the charging source (high-power USB port or Apple charger) halfway, then pressing it in firmly, results in the iPad not charging?

It's highly likely that there is a poor connection in the phone - either a pin in the dock connector or internal wiring harness.  No software fixes or "tricks" would work, but I would recommend restoring in iTunes, first using a backup and if needed restore as a new phone. 
Otherwise, opening and repairing the phone takes some tech knowledge that can't be relayed here.  Apple doesn't repair phones other than replacing batteries (not inconceivable that you have a bad battery), but offers "out-of-warranty" replacement (refurb) phones for $149 (US).  3rd party iPhone repair centers may be able to fix it for less.  Google to find them,
Tried soft and hard resets
FYI, there's no such thing as "soft" or "hard" resets in iPhone terminology.  There is only one phone reset. You'll see those terms thrown around by technically ignorant posters, but they mean different things to different people and are actually archaic, 1980s PC terms that have nothing to do with iPhones.

    My screen has streched out real big and the touch screen is difficult to use and can't return the screen to normal size.Has anyone ever experienced this?

    Double-tap the screen with three fingers, then go to Settings and disable the Zoom function so you don't accidentally trigger it again.

  • 3 GS freezes to white screen occasionally after hitting home button.  Has anyone ever experienced this?

    Has anyone ever experienced a white screen that freezes then turns black after hitting the home button?

    I have had intermittent white screens for some time (as in three years). It happens when the phone "wakes up". I hae lost calls that I could not answer because the screen was white. It has come up white when I hit the home screen. Not always, but with random frequency. All I have to do it hit the power button (I do not have to power off, just hit the button) and  reopen the phone and it is gone. I know the phone is functioning under this screen, I just cannot do anything.
    My first 3GS had the problem so severly I called Apple. After two and a half hours of resets of various kinds, they decided the phone was bad and sent my a replacement. It was better, but it still has the issue. I have gotteb used to it and am waiting until I can get an upgrade to the phone in the hopes it takes care of it. In the meantime, I occasionally doa search here and un the intertubes to see if someone else has the issue and a solution.
    My suspicion has been that some app I downloaded causes it, but I have deleted apps and cannot get rid of the issue.

  • Has anyone ever experienced there 3g icon dissapears?

    Occassionally I notice my 3g "data" connection dissapears in the upper left corner of my AT&T iphone 4 where my reception bars are located. The bars remain but I lose my data connection that enables me to surf the web and send text messages. It happend today when I was driving in an area (San Jose, CA) that I tend to have low bars except this time I had full bars and my 3g icon dissapeared. I left it to see if it would restore and it took almost 3 minutes before the Edge icon appeared. About 10 seconds after that, it turned back to 3g. I know by turning the airplane mode or turning the 3g enabled feature on and off too in settings  sometimes will fix the issue. Does anyone else experience this? I've also experienced this on my past 2 android phones that I had on T-Mobile as well so it's not new to me. Just want to make sure I'm not the only one. My friends claim they never have this issue.

    This will happen when there is bad coverage. I get this every time I pass through one location.
    You are driving and checking your phone's coverage? I am on a train when I notice this happen.

  • Has anyone else encountered a situation where images suddenly gone missing?

    i've had files suddenly gone missing on me several times. i was so sure that this might be a bug but now i think it's user error. at least my error.
    a few times i wanted to delete one image and then found that several other images disappeared on me. here i realize that i forgot to deselect all of the other images before deleting the one image i intend to delete.
    another time for some unexplained reason, so it seemed, several images disappeared on me. poof! i couldn't find them anywhere, but i didn't think to look in the Rejected library. later on i realize that i've pressed the zero key by mistake while the images were selected. the zero key rejects the images and placed them in the Rejected library. i've found some of my missing images in this library. phew!
    for those of you who have some missing images, and haven't taken a look inside your Rejected library, take a look and maybe you'll find some of your missing images in there.

    You might just need to clear your search by selecting
    the "x" in the search field.
    Not quite the same as going into the search field and changing the rating slider and selection to show only deleted as by just clearing the search field does not change the slider rating and you'll still not see the rejected files.

  • For some reason, the battery in my iPad2 is not charging. Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how did you remedy it, please?

    For some reason, the battery in my iPad 2 , ioa 7.1.2m has stopped charging. Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how did you remedy it, please ?

    Batteries do have a finite life span.
    That said there have been some users reporting battery issues but but there's no way to know what or why or how it happens.
    You can try a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. Let it reboot and see if that helps.
    If you have spares, you can try to swap out your charger and cable, just to see if there's any difference with them changed.
    Another thing you can try is a restore. That's basically where you back it up and then restore it from a backup. (something to do a bit more research into if you plan to do it).
    if you don't want to do that then you can make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check it out.

  • Is anyone else having an issue with the iPad not charging if you use it while it's plugged into a power source?  Now that I'm on iOS 7, I either charge or use... Not both.

    No problems here.

    My IOS-7 is on an iPod Touch.

  • Has anyone else experienced the iOS going into recovery mode after the latest update?

    I had a notification stating a update of iOS 6.1.1 was available. I started to install the software OTA. after about 10mins, my phone turned off, and when turned back on, showed a picture of a cable and the word iTunes.
    I plugged it up to my computer which told me it was in recovery mode. its reinstalled the new software but I've lost everything. Photos, Videos, Apps, notes, Music, Messages.
    I back it up regularly, but when i tried to restore the backed up file, Ive still lost a 80% of my photos, no videos have been readded, and all my Apps I have had to redownload from the App Store.
    Needless to say, it's things like this that make me really wish I had re-upgraded to an Android!
    Has anyone else experienced this issue with this update?

    I am also experiencing the same problem, but strangely only with my iMac!
    iPhone and iPad running iOS 7.0.6 working OK
    MacBook Air running OSX 10.9.2 (and Intel HD Graphics 5000 1024MB) working OK
    iMac running OSX 10.9.2 (and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB) working NOT OK
    Not sure if this may be a problem with NVIDIA graphics after upgrading to OSX 10.9.2?
    When I try to connect to AirPlay Display via my iMac, it says it's connected, but my TV goes into a full black screen mode. Despite it says it's connected to AirPlay display, I cannot actually change from Extend Desktop (my default) to Mirror iMac for example, as it doesn't allow to select it. Also, if I "open display preferences" I don't have any "Arrengement" tab as I have on my MacBook Air where it is working ok.
    Thanks.

    Have been using Lightroom on my Apple computer for years. Now, ever since upgrading to Apple's  Yosemite operating system I get an error message (150:30) every time I try to open a lightroom file. Has anyone else experienced this problem?  Also how do I subscribe to Adobe's Premium Support? Every time I've tried (through contact support) I just get taken on an unending loop.

    I think we need a lot more information.
    Exactly what does the message say?
    Exactly what files are you trying to open?
    Exactly how are you trying to open them (what menu command or button or mouse action or keyboard shortcut)?
    And lastly, what version of Lightroom are you using?

  • HT4623 I updated my phone yesterday to ios7.0.4 and have lost the mail icon along the bottom of the screen which sits with safari, phone and the music icon. Has anyone else experienced this?

    my phone is an iphone 4 and after the update to ios7.0.4 yesterday, i have lost all email facility. I dont have any email icon or button across the bottom of the phone which sits next to the phone, safari and music buttons. Has anyone else experienced this?? Thanks in advance

    Hi kylie,
    The Mail app cannot be deleted, so it is there somewhere. Look at all of your other Home screens to see if you can find it.
    If you cannot, do a spotlight search to see if it got accidently moved into a folder: swipe down in the center of the screen to bring up the search bar - type in Mail - you should see the Mail icon in the search results. If it got moved into a folder, you will see the folder name on the right side. If it is in a folder, open the folder, and tap and hold the Mail icon until it wiggles, then slide it out and back to the place where you want it to be.
    If that doesn' work, you can also go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. This will move all of your icons into the original order that they were on the phone. You may have to move stuff around after this to where you want it to be, but all of the Apple system apps will be on the first Home screen.
    Cheers,

  • Has anyone ever had an email from Apple asking them to update their details for their Apple account on IPad? Kinda worried as it asks for my bank details and bank account number and security code on the back of the card. Thanks :)

    Has anyone ever had an email from Apple on IPad asking them to update their account details? The email seems genuine enough as it asks you to sign in with your Apple ID and password and takes you through to the Apple site but am a bit worried as they ask you in the section Update Your Apple account for bank and credit card details and for the security number on the back of the card. Also in the section where it asks for my mobile number it will only take 10 numbers and when ai try to put in the final (11th number) it won't let me. Sorry am new to all this and a bit confused! Any help is gratefully appreciated.....Thanks.

    That is phishing attack

  • Has anyone else experienced problems with the disc burner/driver software not being found?

    I am trying to burn music onto a disc and it is telling me that the disc burner/driver software has not been found. Has anyone else experienced this with their MacBook Pro?

    SuperDrives wear out - it seems that yours might be on the verge of a mechanical failure. I'd just replace it, buying a new drive from Other World Computing and installing it yourself (because Apple would charge a small fortune).

  • TS3581 iPhone 4S - The XCarlink iPhone/iPod accessory for Mazda Bose autochangers is functioning differently after iOS 5.1. The Shuffle function no longer works. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

    The XCarlink iPhone/iPod accessory for Mazda Bose autochangers is functioning differently after iOS 5.1. The Shuffle function no longer works and it plays Albums or Genius Playlisys only (not self-made playlists). Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    Previously, the iPod function enabled one to see the track that was playing and control playback (such as repeat or shuffle) via the iPhone screen. Now all I see is an "Accessory Connected" message.

    Somewhere in there, is there a question for us, your fellow users in these user to user support forums?
