How long should I need to charge the new iPad and when?

Hello everyone I just bought the new IPad and till now I didn't charge it how long should I charge it and when ?
Thanks a lot ..

You don't need to charge it before first using it, it should already be at least partially charged. Otherwise this page just says :
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
Mine takes between 5.5 and 6 hours to charge from empty up to 100%

  • How long should it take to charge the newest iPad?

    My battery was completely drained when I went to bed last night. I plugged it into a wall outlet and 9 hours later it is only charged to 89%. Is this normal? I have a WIFI only 64GB iPad.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • How long does it take to charge the new iPhone 6

    How long does it take to charge the new iPhone 6?

    That depends on the level of charge...if it is fully discharged it could take two-three hours.  If only partially discharged, an hour.  But that is only guessing as it depends heavily on the charge level when you start charging.

    I can't personally as I never really liked nor used the picture frame feature in iPad.  Just search in the App Store and read customer reviews and you'll likely find something you'll like.

  • How long do you need to charge a new iPhone 5 for before trying to turn it on?

    I received a new iphone 5 in the post today to replace the ne I had smashed the screen on.
    I was told that I would need to charge the phone and then insert my SIM and it would be good to go.
    The phone has been on charge since 14:00 and still wont turn on (tried when still on charge and off charge).
    Any ideas?
    I have held down the power button for 10+ seconds
    I have held the power and home button down together for 10+ seconds
    I have held the home button, plugged the phone into my Mac, Itunes then acknowledges that a IPhone is present and is up to date but the screen on my actual ipone remains black????

    It doesn't matter. You can use it right away. Charge it when you need to.

    when my iphone 4s goes completely dead how long should it take to recongize the charger and begin to charge?

    How do you know it is not charging? Do you see anything on the screen at all? Have you tried a reset? Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons until you see the Apple logo and then release. If the phone was completly dead, it may take up to 15 seconds or more for the Apple logo to appear.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

    Hey Beck,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’ve Reset All Settings on your iPhone 4s and now you’re running into an issue where the device only displays an Apple logo on startup. The article linked below provides troubleshooting suggestions that should be able to help you resolve the issue.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If your device gets stuck during startup
    When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.

    If you still need help after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.
    Ciao,

  • HT1476 How long should it take to charge an iphone 5s?

    My new iphone 5s has been on charge for 5 hours and it is not half charged yet. How long should it take to charge?

    That's not really true. Open apps, except for the one you are actively using, use no power. They are in a suspended state. And killing apps in the Quick Launch screen does not necessarily stop ones with background processes from using power.
    What you should be using the Quick Launch screen for is to switch quickly between applications without having to go back to the Home screen and navigating to the app you want every time.
