How Do We Charge N8 with its USB Cable?

Hello Everyone,
I tried to charge my N8 with USB cable but it didn't charge. I connected its USB Cable to my phone and laptop, but it didn't start charging my N8. Do I have to do something else?
If you know anything about it, please share the information here.
Thank you..

You can't but they may be a way around it. Not all usb ports support charging. Try the different ports on your laptop and see if any of them don't charge.

    YOU ARE IN RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.

  • Can no longer charge Nano with the USB cable

    My iPod Nano (1st gen) won't charge via the USB cable any more. It will sync if there is enough battery life when I hook it up to the USB cable. However, if I leave it hooked up, it gets drained of all it's battery life. Fortunately I have a wall charger and a car charger and both of them will charge the Nano. It's a lot more convenient for me to charge it via my computer, but that's not possible any more. Is my Nano dying or is it possible the USB cable is damaged? If it's damaged, how can it sync but not charge? Why can I charge with other power sources but not the cable? Unfortunately, I don't have another iPod cable to test if the cable is damaged. If my Nano is dying, can you give me a rough estimate as to how long it will be before it stops charging all together. (I need to prepare my spouse for the upcoming iPod Touch purchase that will appear on credit card.)
    Thanks.........Julie

    Here's my own trial and error analysis of my problem. I hooked my iPod up to my old G4 PowerBook and tried to charge it from there. It didn't charge but it also didn't lose any more power that I could tell. I then hooked it up to my MacBook's first USB slot. I heard that the first slot has more power than the 2nd slot due to the way the 2 USB ports are configured. Unfortunately, the iPod appeared to have lost some power, i.e. the USB port drained some of the power from the iPod.
    I'm guessing I need to take it in to have my USB ports checked out. I prefer to take it to an Apple store with a Genius bar that is 3 hours away instead of to our "local" Apple repair shop that is an hour away. I have Apple Care and I believe my local shop will still charge me for time.
    Thanks for the suggestions. Until I find a day when I can take the long drive, I'll just charge my iPod from with a wall charger. I'm grateful the iPod syncs and I have an alternate way to charge.

  • Charge iPod with the USB cable

    When I connect my iPod to a computer whithout iTunes installed, I get a new drive in windows. But on my iPod I get symbol in the display that says that I should not remove the cable before I disconnect the iPod in windows.
    In this case the iPod charge until I disconnect the iPod in windows.
    When I use iPod with my computer where iTunes is installed, I can press the Eject iPod button in iTunes and the iPod still get power from the USB cable, and the iPod still charge.
    Is there any software so can do the same job as in the iTunes for eject iPod? Beacuse then I can charge the iPod with only the usb cable and still listen to the music.
    iPod U2 SE   Windows XP Pro  
      Windows XP Pro  

    I would try here first.
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    Then to the Apple store.

  • RE: Charging 6500c with generic USB cable

    Hi All,
    I bought myself a micro usb adapter to plug into my generic usb cable charger I used to use to charge my older 6101 but it doesn't seem to be charging. It's connected OK as as the phone tells me that it's charging and the battery icon indicates so but the power level stays the same even after 2-3 hours plugged in!
    It worked OK with the 6101.
    Just wondering if anyone has this problem and a solution? Is the power output incompatible with the new micro usb connectors? Also tried this with a wall usb charger connected using the nokia usb connector cable with the same result.
    Apart from buuying a new micro usb charger specifically for the 6500c are there work around this? Don't want to throw away my old usb cables.
    Thanks.

    Hi nutt3r
    Apparently the only Nokia handsets that are able to charge via the CA-101 cable are the Nokia 6500, the Nokia 7900, and the Nokia 8800 Arte Edition.
    Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • When I plug my phone into my PC with the USB cable an ad starts playing on my PC. How do I stop this?

    When I plug my phone into my PC with the USB cable an advertisement starts playing on my PC. The advertisement is for an add-on product called Backup Assistant Plus. How can I stop this?
    I read of a work-around to stop this, but it does not meet my needs. The work-around is to change your USB connection option from "mass storage device" to the one of the options about uploading pictures. This would not work for me because I'm connecting the cable so I can access the phone's memory as a mass storage device!
    This is a seriously obnoxious problem affecting millions of people. It's a common conversation in bars, and all the iPhone fans are saying--yea, I told you so, stuff from Motorola is junk. I'd recommend that it be fixed as soon as possible!
    Model: Droid Razr
    Android version: 4.0.4

    Yes, you can stop it. When you plug in the phone, down in the lower right of your screen, click and pull up the Motorola Device Manager. Do as you please with it.

  • I tried for update but when i saw the screen its showing an arrow with a USB cable towards itunes icon, and now i'm not able to do anything, i also tried to connect ipad through my laptop but no use

    That message means that you have to restore the iPad now. There was a problem with the update. So connect the iPad to your computer and restore your iPad.
    You can read bout it here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    If that does not work you will need recovery mode. You can read about it here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
    Or you can follow these Recovery Mode Instructions
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
    Use iTunes to restore iPad.

  • My Mac simply ignores my Iphone when I connect it with the USB cable. WHY? how Can I fix it?

    My Mac simply ignores my Iphone when I connect it with the USB cable. WHY? how Can I fix it?
    I was able to connect the first time, but after that my computer simply rejects the Iphone and nothing happens. The Iphone doesn't spin or try to reboot even! .
    WHAT to do? I got it today.

    When you say it ignores your iPhone, do you mean it does not appear in iTunes if you launch iTunes? Or it does not appear in Finder? Or does not appear in iPhoto? Or you get an error message?

  • HT1476 My iPod touch won't charge with the USB cable.

    For some reason my iPod touch (4th gen) will not charge when I plug it in with my USB cable in my pc. No symbol on the front, nothing. Any ideas?
    Thanks or any help. Oh yeah, the pc CAN sense the device, it shows up on iTunes.

  • How do I scan and email documents on my canon mx870? I have a MAC OS X 10.7.5 and it is connected with a usb cable to the printer. Thank you so much!

    How do I scan and email documents on my canon mx870? I have a MAC OS X 10.7.5 and it is connected with a usb cable to the printer. Thank you so much!

    Hi, I have 10.6.8 and an HP printer so it may be slightly different but I'll give it my best shot:
    Go to System Preferences.
    Click on "Print & Fax"
    Near the top of that page you should see "Print" and "Scan" options. Click "Scan"
    A button appears that says "open scanner"
    The settings are different between the different scanner models so I'm not sure what the next window will look like, but it should be pretty straightforward from there. It will scan to a JPEG image which you can attach to an email. I hope that helps! Let me know if there's anything ense I can help with.

  • How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?

    How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?
    For example, a border: a black line with a width 1 and then a transparent line with a width 5. Further inner, it is the content pane.
    In JavaSE, there seems to have the paintComponent() method for the JFrame to realize the effect.

    Not sure why your code is doing that. I usually use an ObjectProperty<Point2D> to hold the initial coordinates of the mouse press, and set it to null on a mouse release. That seems to avoid the dragging being confused by mouse interaction with other nodes.

    You have to remove all cables before connecting to your computer with micro usb. Power is only connected when using a 3rd gen device and done after the initial connection.
