HT1476 Can I use my iPad 3 charger to charge my iphone5, since it fits?

I misplaced my iphone 5 charger.  Can I use the ipad 3 charger (small port) that fits the iphone 5 to charge it?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The iPhone 5 and the 4th generation iPad use the same charger port, Lightning, so you can use the 4th generation iPad charger with the iPhone 5.
However, the 3rd generation iPad has got a 30-pin Dock, so as you said it has the small port, I suppose you have a 4th generation iPad

    You can use the iPad mini charger to charge the iPhone 5C, but not recommended the other way around.
    The article below explains that the iPhone charger is meant to charge only iPhones and 1st generation iPad mini.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4060
    To charge your iPad battery, try one of these:
    Connect iPad to a power outlet using the included cable and USB power adapter (use the table below to determine which adapter is intended for your iPad.)
    Connect to a high-power USB 2.0 port using the included cable.
    Note: Some USB 2.0 ports and accessories do not provide enough power to charge iPad. When this occurs the message "Not Charging" appears in the status bar next to the battery icon.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Happy Holidays!

  • Can I use the IPad adapter/charger to charge my iphone

    My wife and I have been using the same Apple adapter/charger to charge our iphone & ipad.
    I decided today to purchase another aso we can each have our own.
    When I went to the apple store I was told that I should purchase an IPad Adapter as it used 10 watts.
    When I got home I checked and found that I've been using the 10w to charge my wife's iphone successfully.
    Should I return the adapter I have just bought & get an iphone adapter or can the ipad charger be used for both.
    thanks

    The iPad adapter can be used to charge the iPhone.

  • Can I use my Ipad 3 charger to charge my Iphone 4 and Ipod Touch2?, can I use my Ipad 3 charger to charge my Iphone 5 and Ipod Touch2?

    I've been using my IPhone 4 charger to charge my phone and both my Ipad3 and Ipod Touch2 but was recently told that I shouldn't do it due to the difference in wattage for each device. Is this true and are there any serious consequences impacting all my devices? I've not faced any difficulties...yet. Would be glad for some good advise. Thanks.

    You can, but it doesn't produce suffiucient power to realistically charge an iPad. If you want to use just one charger for everything, use the ipad charger.  

  • Can you use the iPad while charging

    Are you able to use your iPad 2 while it is being charged

    yep.
    now if you're trying to charge off the USB of a computer, it'll say 'not charging' even though it does - just slowly enough to say 'not charging'. And there may not be much charging as you use it. Your only limit is the distance of your plugin from where you want to be.

  • HT1476 Can i use the iPad charger (12W) in charging my iPhone 5?

    Is that OK to its battery, giving that its own charger is only (5W)?

    Yes, it's OK. The iPad charger is compatible with the iPhone. The iPhone will only draw the amount of power it needs. See http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD836LL/A/apple-12w-usb-power-adapter and click on "compatibility".

  • HT1476 Can I use an iPad charger to charge an iPhone?

    It will not charge any faster, or at least not by any great amount. No, it will not harm the phone.

  • Can i use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air

    Can I use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air?

    It's really not recommended. The iPhone's 5w charger does not output enough current to properly charge the battery. It -may- charge but if it did, it would charge the iPad very slowly.
    This would be like trying to fill a bucket of water (iPad) with a squirt gun (5w charger)
    Also under iOS 7, the charging requirements are much stricter than iOS 6. You'll likey get an error message if you try.

  • Can i use the iphone 4 charger to charge my ipad 2?

    Can I use my Iphone 4 charger to charge my Ipad 2?

    Nothing will be ruined by offering less power. Options for charging given in the documentations include USB sockets on your computer, which only offer half of the power of the iPhone charger. Any method of charging will work, differing only in how long it will take.
