HELP! iPad just started not charging and saying accessory not supported!

I have tried my normal wall charger and cord from Apple, tried the USB on the computer, changed the cords out etc.
Just started doing this within the last day.  I have no idea why.
It is recognized on my computer, however my normal desktop where I back up is down so I don't want to do a restore on it.
Any suggestions????
This is the first original iPad and software is up to date.

I've been getting this problem for a few days now , i've found that if i pull the usb connector back slightly from the socket on my PC it charges fine , push the connector fully in and 'Charging is not supported with this accessory' comes up , i've checked it a number of times ,  i just pull the usb connector back until the charging symbol comes on .
Be good to know if what i posted fixes anyone elses charging problem , it seems to me that when the 2 middle pins connect inside of the usb plug my phone sometimes doesn't like it , and by pulling the plug back so they don't connect, it then starts charging.

    Hi t0m#2410,
    How did you install Acrobat, did you install it as a part of Suite installation.
    If it is a part of suite then deactivate suite uninstall Acrobat, Reinstall Acrobat using Suite media. Launch Photoshop first and Activate.
    Then try launch Acrobat.

  • HT1454 I have a speaker with I phone 30 pin dock, it use to work fine but i am not getting error saying accessory not supported,how i can determine what could be the problem

    I have a speaker with I phone 30 pin dock, it use to work fine but i am not getting error saying accessory not supported,how i can determine what could be the problem
    i am getting the same error with my rf transmitter that i use in my car

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Did this start happening after an iOS update? Sometimes an iOS update will break compatibility.
    Sometimes this works:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • HELP. I pod nano will not charge and computer does not recognize it.

    My Ipod nano suddenly would not take a charge either from a wall charger or directly from my computer and when plugged in to the USB port, computer says device not recognized. I've updated my Itunes version. I've reset the IPod settings with no success. I"ve spent hours online with the "SELF HELP" with no help. Just bought this stupid thing in December, awful lot of money for it to be totally useless now. Can anybody help???

  • Iphone 4 will not charge and itunes does not recogise it at all.  When I plug it in to charge it says that it needs to be restored.

    My iphone 4 will not charge when I plug it in, it will turn on but it says that it needs to be restored and will not do anything else.  When I plug it into itunes it isn't recognized at all.  I took it into the verizon store and they were not any help at all.  My phone isn't under warranty anymore so they don't care.  Please help, I had to go back to my old phone, a droid and I hate it so much. 

    its fixed!!  After posting my problem with the FROZEN ipod classic (2007) 80 gb a screen popped up with similar subjects that I did not find in my original search.  'Rich Fleming' in the community posted a suggestion to someone with a similar frozen issue and it WORKED when I tried it. 
    hold the 'menu' and the 'circle' buttons down at the same time, KEEP the pressed until the apple appears. and now it is working.  Hope this helps others.

    I have looked on loads of forums but I seem to have 2 problems merged into one.
    The first one is that my phone will not charge, i have tried different USB ports, different plugs (the only thing i havent got round to yet is checking the actual cable). I have clean the phone where the cable goes.
    Also when i plug it into the computer, it says the USB is not being recognised and it also doesnt charge my phone.

    Hello rleighton,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the battery on your iPhone 5.  You have taken some really good steps to troubleshoot this issue already.  I found an article with a few additional steps you can take.
    I recommend the following steps for the issue you described (you can skip any of the steps you have already taken):
    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.

  • MacBook pro not charging and it is not the charger

    I tried plugging my MacBook pro to its charger and I found the chargers light twitching and it didn't turn into charging and my laptop wasn't charging , now I have bought another charger thinking that my charger was the problem and it is doing the same thing so is there a problem with my MacBook please help !!

    You should still be able to 'see' the battery, and it's 'health' in a System report.
    As wjosten wrote:
    >About this Mac>More Info>System Report>Hardware>Power...under Battery Health, what does it say?
    If your battery is not showing up under Power, you're in  trouble. If it is showing up, you should be able to report its health.

    Follow directions for "a battery you should not remove yourself"

    What iOS version on the iPod?
    Have you tried a different cable? Sometimes cables go bad.

  • Iphoto- will not open and says its not there

    I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO TRY BESIDE THE ILIFE CD THAT CAM WITH IT AND IT DOESNT DO ANYTHING? IS IT IPHOTOS GONE AND I NEED TO PAY FOR A NEW ONE?
    ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!
    SHELL

    Post in the iPhoto forums for whichever version you are using.  You will also need to mention to the helpers there which OS version you are using.
    Correct computer info will help to.  You posted in the Intel iMac forums yet your profile confirms you are using a Mac Pro.

    "Your email account" means to tap on the name of your email account. Whatever it is listed as in the settings.
    In my mail settings, one of my email accounts is a Comcast account. I tap on the Comcast name and it brings up this window.
    Then I tap on the arrow under the Outgoing mail server smtp setting to get to the next window.
    In the resulting window, I then tap on the arrow next to the smtp server under the Primary Server setting.
    That brings up this window in which I check to make sure that my user name and password have been entered correctly. If those items are missing, enter them in the appropriate fields and then tap done.
