HELP PHONE NOT CHARGING FROM WALL ANYMORE!!!!

I had this problem last night i was checking my yahoo e-mail and preceded to download a picture to my e-mail as the picture was downloading the iphone locked up i was unable to do anything not even power the iphone off or get back to home. all i did was wait for the battery to drain down ( because the picture i was downloading was frozen and the light on the iphone stayed on) once i got home and plugged the iphone back in to charge ( beacuse battery went dead) the apple logo showed up and the phone seemed to be back to normal so i thought the only way it will charge now is if i have it hooked in to my IMAC. the icon for charging is working while hooked up to the mac but for the **** of it i tried charging from the wall (tried different outlets that all work) and the thing will not charge. it will only charge from the computer only why is this please help someone

Same thing happened to me. Suddenly, I could not charge from the wall outlet. To test it, I also tried to charge my iPod from the unit and it didn't work. Went to Apple Store and got a new USB wall charger, even though the Genius guy gave me a hard time and was convinced nothing was wrong with my charger. He exchanged it, I took the new one home and it works perfectly.
I have read that other people's chargers are defective, too. Hope this helps.

PHONE NOT CHARGING FROM WALL OUTLET

The phone charges in the car but it will not charge with a wall outlet

Troubleshoot it. Is the iPad 2 charging from USB port computer? Maybe try a different cable? Make sure you wall outlet is even working? ;-) j/k All else fails take it to Apple Store like Texas Mac Man said. If you have Applecare warranty. They will replace it.

IPhone will not charge from wall socket only from Laptop or Computer!

Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
My IPhone will charge sometimes and sometime it wont:
I mean like sometimes it will charge from the wall socket and sometimes it wont!
It will go so far as to turn off because of no battery life! Then I plug it in to the Laptop and it starts charging!

I have had this problem for some time. It applies to both a wall charger (the one that came with iPhone and a third-party model) and a car charger (third party). Both wall and car chargers are rated at 1000 ma which should be enough power. Yet when the battery charge goes below a certain level the phone will not charge from wall or car charger, but it will charge from a computer.
I did some research on USB power. Per specification, a USB client (the iPhone) cannot draw more than 100 ma from the USB host (charger or computer or hub) unless it asks for and gets permission to draw more current. (This is so it does not interfere with other USB devices connected to the host.)
Inexpensive wall chargers do not contain any computing elements. They short the D+ and D- lines together. This makes it impossible for a client to negotiate a higher current draw, so the iPhone, working per the USB standard, limits itself to 100 ma. When connected to a computing device such as a computer or USB hub, the iPhone can negotiate a higher current, up to the 500 ma currently allowed by the USB standard.
This begs the question, why can't the iPhone charge on 100 ma when the battery is almost completely discharged? After all, when the battery has more charge, the iPhone will charge nicely from a wall charger. Perhaps someone has some insight into this aspect.
There is evidently a new USB standard for wall chargers that will fix this issue. Both the host and client must implement in order for it to work. (I haven't read the standard, but suspect it involves the client detecting that the D+ and D- lines are shorted together.) Obviously, either the charger or my iPhone 3G don't comply with this new standard. Maybe the iPhone 3GS does? Or maybe we have to wait for another iPhone model that has the hardware that complies with the new USB wall charger standard.
Meanwhile I have to be careful not to fully discharge my iPhone battery when I am away from a computer. I recently went on a 30-day trip and had no problem because I charged the phone every night. Of course, I did not use it much because it was an international trip and AT&T roaming rates are horribly expensive.

Iphone 4s will not charge from wall charger, only from computer usb

Well My iphone 4s has starting acting up. The phone will not charge from any of the apple wall chargers I have. I have also tried various apple cables. The phone will charge from my Macbook Pro's usb port.
I have also did various restores to the phones software/phone, it is running ios 7.0.6
Any help would be great I was trying to hold out for the iphone 6, and don't really want the 5s......

5G will not charge from wall adapter

My new 15 gig 5G will not charge from a 5 volt wall adapter.It charges fine on the USB port on my computers.
So I decided to take a USB extension and cut it an place a current meter in series with the 5 Volt on the USB line.What I found is that it will draw ~500ma with the data lines connected in the cable(in other words a normal cable). Now if I disconnect the data wires so that I am only connecting the 5 volts from the USB port it will draw ~100 ma for a second and then draw no current.It appears that some kind of handshaking is required. Is this normal?
As it is now I will not be able to ever charge it from a 5 volt supply.Do they do something to the data lines on wall adapters?

Well I finally got my "dumb" USB charger (a Belkin F8Z009 Power pack) to work with my iPod 5G 30GB. To wake up the 5G needs to see 2.5 volts on it's data lines. The easiest way to do this is with a voltage divider made with two equal resistors. Like this:
As a poof of concept I made the device below with four 30K resistors but anything from 10K to 50K should work fine.
A more compact wake up cable could be made by cutting into a standard USB male-female extension cable and soldering in four resistors like this:
Of course if your building your own or can get your "dumb" USB charger open then the resistor voltage dividers can go inside.

IPhone's 4S & 5 will not charge from wall charger

Similarly to everyone else, I have updated my iPhone 5 & also 4S to IOS 6.1.3.
The batteries in both phones are draining very fast just as a lot of other people are commenting on, but also both phones will not charge from various devices that do work.
I have 2 cables that both work in the car an on my PC, neither now work when connected to a GPO.
This started straight after the phones were updated.
Thoughts; advice please.

i did the basic stuff OF COURSE .... but i am NOT willing to go through the pain of restoring my phone just because Apple screwed up another IOS update ..... i am really getting sick of thiose half-baked updates that break more things than fix ....

After using Energie On The Go BB will not charge from wall

My BB was out of power and I bought an Energizer Energie on the go to charge my BB and it worked fine. But since then the BB will not charge from the wall. I bought a new batery and same story. the plug con comes on when first plugged to the wall charger bt goes out in 3 sec. What's the deal? How can Fix? have tried removing battery and reseting several times but no luck.

I guess it's possible that the charger block is faulty, and maybe you had a power surge that knocked them out, perhaps the cables are good which is why they charge with USB port on computer of in a car but the block the USB cable plugs into is bad thus when using a wall outlet it doesn't charge... Have you had to reset the GFCI for any outlets in your home??

HT1414 my ipad mini will not charge from wall socket and it will not show itself on i tunes via my pc... i have also substituted my power charger from my i-phone to no avail.

my daughter's i-pad mini will not charge up from the wall socket and it will not show itself on i-tunes via my pc... i substituted the power charger from my i-phone to no avail with the wall socket... seems like i read that the earlier i-pads have some problems with the lightning socket but can not remember exactly...there is no apple retail shop in the small city where i live but would travel to one if the fix is relatively quick or easy...otherwise, what can i do for diagnosis and repair?

Most likely your cable is bad and you need to get a replacement.

IPhone 4 will not charge from wall... help!

I've had my iPhone 4 for going on two years and never had any major issues with it. As of the last couple days, I'm having a major problem charging my phone. In the beginning, it wouldn't charge from the wall or via USB on my laptop. However, it would charge via USB when plugged into a regular windows PC. Really strange if you ask me.
After browing through some similar questions already asked on here, I found a solution for the laptop problem. I was able to update a driver in the device manager and am now able to charge via my laptop and also connect so that I can sync my phone, etc.
It still won't charge with the regular wall charger! Which uses the same USB cord that I'm using in my computer.
Originially, I had 2 wall chargers that I've had forever and when neither one of them were working the other day, I thought they were faulty so I went out and bought a new charger. It worked! I thought I was home free. Wrong. It worked for 1 afternoon and then it stopped working again (but it's the same one that I'm now using in my laptop)... so it only doesn't work when plugged into the wall.
I've tried multiple power blocks, multiple USB cords, multiple wall outlets.
No idea what the issue is!
I also tried a hard reset (power/home button) on my phone, it didn't do anything.
Also, all of my software is up to date (iOS 6.1.3).
I might just suck it up and head to Apple/Verizon tomorrow and see if they can figure it out, but in the meantime, does anyone have any ideas?!
Thanks!

Check the bottom of the iPhone and make sure there is no lint or debris on the connector that the power/sync cord attaches to. Also with a very low battery, you may have to let the iPhone charge several minutes before you get any indications. If none of the above solves the problem, try another cable. You might also want to try a car charger if you've got one.

IPad not recognised in iTunes and showing not charging from wall charger

I have had my ipad a year and today it is not recognised in itunes, also when charging from a wall socket 10A ipad charger it shows Not Charging (however trickle charges). I have tried resetting (holding both buttons for 10 sec) with no benefit, i am reluctant to resset everything as if this does not work I have a dead iPad.
No other items have changed and there does not appear to be any visable damage in the conector on the iPad, note an ipod conects in itunes, so it is not a Mac side issue. This feels like a software issue on the iPad.
Any help appreciated if anyone else has had this issue.
Thanks

Update: Apple agreed to a replacement iPad even though I did not return faulty one to dealer till 2 weeks outside of warranty. The replacement looks brand new. Dealer told me Apple does not repair iPads as they are a sealed unit. I am doubtful that is true. Suspect they do 'refurbish' and use as replacements. Am grateful to Apple for the new iPad. Two thoughts as to why they agreed to it despite faulty one out of warranty: 1) Consumer Guarantee Act in New Zealand - which trumps manufacturers warranties and says among other things that goods sold must be of an 'acceptable quality' (and I did mutter to the dealer about the CG Act); 2) It stops owners blabbing on forums like this what component failed on their iPad... and hmmm maybe Apple recognises a problem with the lifespan of the dock connector/cable.

HT1384 iPod Classic will not charge from wall outlet

My iPod Classic 80G will charge from my computers and my iHome dock, but not from the wall outlet. The cord, outlet, and adapter all work. We know the regular adapter works, it's an Apple universal USB to wall adapter that charges our iPad. We tried other cords (have two), other outlets, and even my kindle 2-prong adapter. Nothing worked. Suggestions?

Hello there, Anhaja.
First off, great job in your isolating steps performed already. One step that wasn't mentioned is found in the following Knowledge Base article:
How to reset iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
For your particular model:
How to reset an iPod with a Click Wheel
1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
2. Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 8 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
Tip: If you are having difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.
If the above steps did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep. Try resetting the iPod while it is connected to power.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Iphone 4 will not charge from wall or computer ?help

HI
I noticed my phone had a low battery. Once i got home the phone was dead. Tried charging as usual using the apple leads to the wall - but nothing comes up on the screen - no 'charging symbol' instead the phone remains dead. Any ideas?

my phone is charging from my computer but not showing up in itunes?
can some one help please, i have followed all of apples advice!!

"i have followed all of apples advice!!"
No idea what this means, unless you say what you have tried. When you say that you have tried "all", it really does not encourage anyone to make suggestions. If you have tried it all, then, by definition, there is nothing left to try.
