I phone wont charge error message

My i phone 4 wont charge-error message -chrging is not supported with this device
but i am using an applle charger

Two biggest causes of this are crud/lint in your dock connector, causing a short, thus producing that error message. So, use canned air & a soft toothbrush to clean your dock connector. Also, look for any bent pins. If that doesn't fix things, try a different USB cable.

    My iphone 4 has died and says connect to itunes.  itunes restore wont work, error message 2001, then 2006 appears.Tried all the troubleshooting help, but nothing works. Any ideas???

    I solved my own problem. Hopefully this will help someone else.
    I did a DFU restore, then started it up as a new phone on iTunes. Everything loaded properly, then from iTunes did a restore from backup, selected the one I wanted and it still took me to the same screen with 3 options of restore. I chose the start up as new phone from the actual phone and after all the syncing was completed, my phone is back in working order.

  • HT4623 my phone got an error message while trying to update

    my phone got an error message while trying to update

    I received an error message when attempting to install the latest update as well.  Went through all steps, downloaded through Itunes and when asked to update my apple id by entering an e -mail, the following error message appears:
    Could not sign in
    There was a problem connecting to the server.
    However, I was able to access google/gmail account servers prior to installing iOS 6. Now my phone is stuck at this error message and I can't use it!

  • I have problems updating my iphone 4 to ios 7.0.6. Everything seems ok, it is downloading, installing and restarting but it is still ios 7.0.4 on the phone. No error messages, everything seems ok. What is wrong?

    I've never seen this.  Try updating via iTunes on your computer.  Plug it in and see if iTunes says it needs updating.
    It worked via iTunes
    Thank you

    My phone wont charge unless it's powered down.

    Charging of the phone normally turns it on. If you are having trouble like that, I suggest you contact the seller and see about a refund. Something wrong with that phone.

  • TS2634 my phone wont charge

    my phone wont charge in any plug i put it in

    Try blowing out the port, if that does not work, try another charger to see if it is the phone or the charger.
    If it is the charger and not the phone, and it's under warranty, take it to the place of purchase with receipt and have it replaced.
    If out of warranty, just buy a new one.  They are not that expensive.

  • IPhone 4S will not start or charge, error message when trying to restore in recovery mode

    So my iPhone 4S shorted out the other night while I was charging it. I did the hard reset and it restarted itself. But later that evening, it turned off and wouldn't restart no matter what and would not charge. When I connect it to my computer (mac) iTunes recognizes it and says it is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. It starts the restore process and the apple logo comes up with a loading bar but then when it gets to the "verifying restore with Apple" it gives an error message (9) and then the phone goes back. Please help!

    Hey rileyec,
    I found this information about error 9:
    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
    via: iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    If those steps do not resolve the issue, I would attempt to perform a recovery-mode restore:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore

  • IPhone 6 (iOS 8.1.1) Charging error message

    I've been using my recently purchased iPhone 6 (16gb) for about a month now. My current iOS is 8.1.1 and since the last week my charging is acting up. Whenever I connect my charger cable to my phone it keeps saying "This accessory my not be supported".
    Here are the things I've tried:
    I've used the USB cable supplied with the iPhone 6 box.
    I've used the USB cable with a iPad connector (3 pin) to the wall socket.
    Connected the USB cable with my laptop and synced my phone with the latest iTunes.
    Connected the USB cable supplied with my iPad mini (2nd Generation) with my laptop to sync my phone with the latest iTunes version.
    Used the USB cable supplied with my iPad mini to charge the phone.
    Used a different USB cable from a iPhone 5s.
    All of the above gives me the same error message. However, after leaving the USB cable connected to the phone for a while I pull the USB cable out and plug it back in... sometimes it accepts and resumes charging.
    So, I'm guessing it is an issue with the latest iOS or my phone. In

  • Charging error message when charger not connected

    My phone woke me up an hour early today with an error message that I was using the wrong charger for my phone.  I am using the original charger.  The message keeps repeating even though no charger is connected.

        I'm sorry you're receiving this message mspammij. Are there any issues with the charger or charging port on the phone? Is either damaged? Did you start to receive this message when you downloaded a specific application?

  • My phone wont charge AT ALL.

    My phone is less then a year old. It is a 4s. today i tried to charge my phone in a wall outlet and it wouldnt work. so i tried my computer, and same thing, i tried with 3 different cords and 2 different chargers. Please help! I need to be able to have full charge for work and school!

    have you tried multiple chargers? If the issue persists with multiple chargers, the issue is at the iPhone.
    Try connecting it to iTunes and see if it's recgonized there.
    Also, here are some other steps:
    1. Try doing a hard reset:
    Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
    2. If that doesn't solve the issue, backup the device and restore it as new.
    In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
    If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
    If you're not able to restore the device, you should use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Using that last article will erase everything on the device, so make sure you have a backup!
    NB: If you're not able to restore the device at all with any computer, it defenitely needs a hardware repair.
    Good luck
