HT4060 How long should my iPad take to charge?

It took a few hours to charge for the first time and I used what came in the box. Please answer my question if I'm doing something wrong or if you have a solution. Thank you.

Are you using the iPad while it's charging?

  • How long should my iPad take to charge fully

    I have a new Ipad and it takes forever to charge.  I plugged it in at 10 AM and it had 5% battery.  After 7.5 hours it's only 77% charged.  Is that normal?  This seems like a silly amount of time to charge this thing.

  • HT4060 How long should an iPad battery last?

    When using my iPad continually I only seem to get approx 4 hrs use, is this about right?

    The usefull life of an iPad battery is about 1000 full discharge/charge cycles, by Apple's standards (i.e. at 1000 cycles, if not abused, it should retain about 80% of its original capacity).  But, a Lithium cell begins to loose capacity from the minute it is assembled at the factory.  It will continue to loose capacity over time, whether used or not.  So, if your iPad is a couple of years old and has had a lot of use (that is many discharge/charge cycles) then it will inherently last less and less on a charge as time goes by.  Also, if it has sat unused for very long periods (several or many months) it will have degraded much faster than if used regularly.
    As others have said, it also depends on your settings, and just what apps and things you normally run on it.

  • How long does an iPad take to ship on average

    how long does an iPad take to ship on average?

    Hello 
    Welcome to the EE Community! It's really difficult to say. As you made the order on Wedsnesday, and rang them on Thursday, where they said it was being processed, I imagine you'll receive it early next week. You should receive an e-mail from UK Mail the day before delivery, but other than that it'll be quite difficult to say exactly when it will be delivered. Keep an eye on your e-mails and you should hopefully be receiving your brand new S6 early next week... very jealous of you!  Cheers,

  • How long should your iPad stay at a full charge

    How long should my ipad2 stay full charge?

    The amount of time left on the battery depends on what you are doing with the iPad. Apple provides estimates based on certain assumptions:
    Battery Life6
    Up to 10 hours of surfing the web on Wi-Fi, watching video, or listening to music
    Up to 9 hours of surfing the web using cellular data network
    Charging via power adapter or USB to computer system
    Up to 10 hours of surfing the web on Wi-Fi, watching video, or listening to music
    Up to 9 hours of surfing the web using cellular data network
    Charging via power adapter or USB to computer system
    Up to 10 hours of surfing the web on Wi-Fi, watching video, or listening to music
    Up to 9 hours of surfing the web using cellular data network
    Charging via power adapter or USB to computer system
    It's impossible to make a judgment on your situation because there are too many variables involved. If you believe you are not getting the battery life you should, then take it back to see about a replacement.

  • HT201269 I'm updating from my iPhone 4 to the iPhone 5 and have been 'restoring' for 2 hours now and the progress bar still states I hae 6 hours remaining. Will it really take this long? How long should a restore take? It's a 32gb device. Thanks.

    I'm updating from my iPhone 4 to the iPhone 5 and have been 'restoring' for 2 hours now and the progress bar still states I hae 6 hours remaining. Will it really take this long? How long should a restore take? It's a 32gb device. Thanks.

    I am having this problem.  At first with the new iPhone 5, and then with the iPad 2.  I am not sure why this is happening. 
    My gut feeling is this is an iO6 issue and here's why -
    The problem mainly occurs with apps.  I have about 150 apps, and when I plugged in the phone, iTunes went to sync all of them.  The process would hang up after about 20 - 30 apps were loaded onto the phone. I could tell where about the process hung up because the apps on the phone showed up as "waiting".
    Then on the iPad 2 I plugged in to sync and saw there was a huge "Other" component in my storage.  It required me to restore the iPad 2 from backup.  With this restore the same issues occurred - putting the apps back on the iPad would hang up.  The videos on the iPad also got stuck - maybe after about 10 hours of videos transfered iTunes crashed.
    My solution has been to soft reset the device, restart Windows, and continue the process until it's complete.  This is remarkably inefficient and time-intensive but everything works with patience.
    I have been wondering if others have had these same problems. 

  • I have been sent an email saying my podcast was accepted and will be up on iTunes in a few hours. That was 5 hours ago. How long should this process take?

    I have been sent an email saying my podcast was accepted and will be up on iTunes in a few hours. That was 5 hours ago. How long should this process take?

    There's no fixed time. If it's been accepted - presumably you've been given a URL? - it should appear reasonably soon. However it can dake some days before it turns up in the search results. The podcast image, if you have one, may also take some days to appear.

  • HT1544 how long should this update take?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It shouldn't take that amount of time. What is the screen showing? Is the progress bar frozen? The only solution would be to restart your Mac, but it's better to first check what your screen is showing

  • How long should "Disk Repair" take?

    I have a G Raid 4 T external drive that I recently had shipped back from my editor. She did not use the original packing box and I fear the drive could be damaged. It starts up okay and doesn't make any suspicious noises - but it doesn't mount. I ran disk utility and it told me I need to run "Disk Repair." I've been doing this - for more than an hour so far. How long should this typically take? Should I try something else?

    It's usually related to the size of the drive, which in your case, is pretty big.

  • HT3231 how long should a migration take? Mine says about 24 hours.

    How long should a migration take? Mine says about 24 hours.

    I would always recommend migrating from a Time Machine backup drive...it's the most reliable (and fastest) means of moving everything over...and it's the most convenient, since you don't need to have two computers up and running to accomplish the backup.
    If you'd like to some good reading on migrating everything over, I highly recommend the following site:

    Usually 1 1/2 Hours tops.

    Around the Same
    When your iphone is at 50% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    Thirty Minutes.
    I think if it is taking you 6 to 7 hours then something is wrong here. Either the battery is flawed, the cable or dock is flawed, or something is wrong with the outlet. It should not take that long.

  • How long should my iPad 3 take to charge

    How long should it take my iPad with retina display to charge?  It takes about 15 hours to charge now from being dead.

    FYI
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) 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 (2.5W, 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%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    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.

    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.

    That depends on a number of things, but using the power adapter plugged into a wall socket it takes my iPad 3 about 5 hours to fully recharge.
