IOs4 upgrade, 3gs no longer charges on Altec radio / iPod player

Ever since my iOs4 upgrade, my 3gs no longer charges on my Altec radio / iPod player.
Any ideas?
TIA

No suggestions. Sorry. But to share the pain. 4 must be the Vista of Apple. Since upgrading my 3gs gets physically very warm, which never happened before. I can't leave the phone charging connected to my notebook via a USB cable, which I could always do before: the phone actually drains. The multitasking feature is lousy: every app I run stays on, I can't control what is running unless I physically turn off the app, which is a design defect. How do I return the phone to the old OS unless and until Apple gets its act together?

  • 3Gs no longer charges in car after updating to iOS 5

    I got a weird problem after updating to iOS 5. In addition to the battery drain, my 3GS will no longer charge via a 12 volt car adaptor. I know the cable and the adaptor work because my son's iPod and wife's iPhone 3G both charge from them. The cable also has no problems charging my phone when it's plugged into the computer or a wall socket.
    The battery drain is a bummer, but combined with no longer being able to charge in the car makes this a killer combination.
    Any help with this would be much appreciated.
    Regards,
    John

    You can try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If still problem then the iOS broke full compatibility. you have to then wait for either Apple to fix the problem in an iOS update or for Honda to fix it via a firmware update/

  • After OS5 attempt upgrade - 3Gs no longer connects to Win7

    Following a failed attempt to upgrade to ios 5 on a 3Gs-16, The phone was stuck in restore mode.  Attempted every known remedy proposed and only a command level function took the phone out of restore mode.  PC(s) "plural" will no longer recognize the phone when attached via USB cable(s) "plural - several tried".  Any ideas?

    Thanks for your further consideration, much apreciated. I tried a different cable, different port and did reboot and soft reset. I also did reset of settings on iPad, just in case.
    As  I can with no problems use the same USB cable and USB port with my iPhone to connect to iTunes, the issue must be somewhat with the iPad Air and iTunes on my Macbook Air. I also can connect the iPad with the same USB Cable to iTunes on a different Macbook with no issues.
    I think, best is to do a full backup on a different machine and then setting back the iPad to initial state, followed by a restore.
    This I can (hopefully successfully) do with iTunes on a different Macbook.
    Many thanks for you kind support.

  • 3GS No Longer Senses Orientation After iOS4 Install

    After loading iOS4, my 3GS no longer senses the rotation of the phone in Photos, Safari, etc. I can not view these apps in landscape mode with the iPhone rotated on its side. However, when I take a photo in portrait and landscape orientation, the photo is recorded in the correct orientation. So, the inertial sensor still works but the hooks to the aforementioned apps appeared to have failed. I tried rebooting and reseting the phone without luck. I also closed all multitasked apps. No joy. Any ideas?

    Is the orientation locked (strange icon near top-right)?

  • IOS4 on 3GS - now won't charge on USB overnight

    I have a 3GS which I have been charging overnight on a USB cradle. It has worked fine for a year or two, always up to 100% by morning.
    Since updating to iOS4 a couple days ago, now it does not charge overnight. In the morning the charge is only at about 40%.
    I typically shut down the phone overnight, so nothing is running or multitasking.
    Why would a software upgrade change the way a shut down phone charges?

    More details I have learned (iOS 4.0 on 3GS):
    - will not charge on USB cradle when switched off
    - will charge successfully on USB cradle when switched on
    - will charge successfully using Apple cube charger when switched off
    How do it know the difference between the 5V supplied by the Apple cube and the 5V supplied by the USB cable?

  • Ipod touch no longer charges in car after software upgrade. Wants app?

    I have an Ipod touch 4th generation. It was working beautifully connected to the USB port in my 2012 Honda CRV until I upgraded the software to 5.1.1. Now it says that I need an App but it won't tell me what App and it no longer charges through the car's USB. It still plays through the car stereo but I have to disconnect it from the USB to control it.

  • IPod Touch 3rd Gen: Battery Draining very rapidly after iOS4 upgrade.

    Hello All,
    Sorry for the long post:
    I was wondering if others are experiencing this issue as well? I have a 3rd gen ipod touch 64gb.
    Prior to the iOS4 upgrade my battery life was very decent. I would easily go a couple(2) days before requiring a full charge on the device even with modest internet, game and music use. As a rule I keep my back light as low as I can stand to conserve battery unless I'm in direct sunlight and have no choice but to bump it up in order to see.
    After the iOS4 upgrade my battery life has been drasticly reduced. Going even 24 hours without plugging the device in is totally out of the question and in many cases I find myself having to plug the device into my laptop or car pretty much any chance I get in order to have uninterupted use of the device while I'm out and about. Although I've never timed my actual use, my usage habbits have not changed as far as I'm concerned.
    I went so far as to exchanging the device at my local bestbuy as I purchased the blacktie protection plan which grants me an exchange of the device for "any" reason; be it manufaturer defect, accidental breakage, or anything really short of losing it. The replacement was a brand new non refurb ipod which I synced and charged fully upon bringing it home. To my suprise, the battery life is just as bad as the ipod I just turned in. I have yet to downgrade to iOS3 but am considering it if only to see if I suddenly see a great improvement of the battery life.
    If anyone is having the issue or has some suggestions other then downgrading please comment. If this is an "unknown" bug/issue/flaw in iOS4 I'm sure apple would like to know about it and I'm assuming they monitor these forums for reports of these issues.
    Thanks!

  • IPod no longer charges

    After the unfortunate decision of updaing to 7.0 and the 1.2 firmware upgrade, my iPod was a brick for about two weeks. I stumbled upon a potential solution: download itunes 6 and the previous firmware update for my iPod, and all was going smoothly, until when I plugged in my iPod.
    The battery was understandably low, as it had been a paperweight for two weeks, and didn't seem to be charging. It finally ran out of battery, and will no longer charge on my computer, my roomates computer, my Xbox360, nothing at all. However, Windows explorer recognizes it as a removable disk drive, but with nothing in it.
    I was wondering if anyone else had this problem, and if anyone knows any potential fixes/solutions?

    I've just this minute identified a similar problem.
    Noticed my iPod hadn't been charging through USB to my work PC, and the iPod itself stuck on the dim "Do Not Disconnect" screen after I'd ejected the hardware on XP. However, once I reset it (center button and menu) it seems to have charged ok.

  • IPhone 3GS no longer works with bluetooth since ios 4.3.2 update

    Hi all. Since the ios 4.3.2 update my iPhone 3GS no longer works correctly with the bluetooth in my car (2006 Acura TL).  I know it's not an issue with the car and the only thing that has changed is the update with the phone.  Anybody else having this issue?  I have unpaired, tried to re-pair, reset the network settings, reset all of the settings, and did a restore.  I'm at a loss with what to do next.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Its becoming a problem of epic proportions...so many people are having the exact same problem...I have a Feb 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Series 200 and since upgrading to OS 4 my USB function no longer works like it did before the upgrade.
    My Apple has become a LEMON!!
    Would be nice to hear that Apple recognises there is a problem...buut maybe they are too busy counting all their money to care!!

  • Calendar crashes when accepting new appointment with iOS4 on 3GS

    I have an Exchange account setup with a provider to sync my mail and calendar. I get a meeting invitation which shows a badge on the calendar app icon. I can open the calendar app, and click on the invitations icon on the bottom right. I can see the invitation. But since the iOS4 upgrade, when I touch the actual appointment to view it and accept it, the calendar app crashes. I went into the web access view of that calendar and accepted the appointment. Normally that would make the invitation on the phone go away, but in this case it is stuck. Any ideas or is this a bug?

    So I have a partial work around for this. From the service provider side, I turned off the appointment notifications. Then I went into the phone settings and turned off calendar sync which removed the entries from my calendar and it no longer crashes. When I turned calendar sync back on in the phone, my appointments came back.
    This is not a fix because now I don't get appointment notifications that I can accept. Which means I have no idea if someone sends me a meeting request until I first check in my regular web or mail client (in this case GroupWise 8). Once I accept the appointment in a regular mail client, the calendar entry will sync to my phone.
    Apple, this is a bug that needs to be fixed soon. My iphone is my primary source of mail and appointments. Daily I get appointments for meetings and calls that are only 2-3 hours away. I will be unable to attend those if I don't know about them.

  • IPhone 3GS 16gb wont charge after everything i try.

    It wont charge no matter what i try? the battery is completely dead and it shows the please connect to electricity symbol. but when i plug in it doesnt work i have tried multiple chargers also.. any help?

    I have the same problem.  I notice that much like others using iOS 5 my battery drained very quickly, but once it became completely drained it would no longer charged.  I have tried different usb cables, different wall charging blocks, different computers..nothing happens.  I've left it plugged into a power source overnight, but it remained dead the next day. My 32gb 3GS has been like this for 4 days now and the screen with very low red battery and the (plug --> charge) symbols undernearth no longer appears when i press/hold the lock button.  The screen remains completely black and the phone is unresponsive.
    Nothing seems to work and no one online seems to have a solution.
    Is your phone still showing the screen to connect to power after a week?

  • My iPhone 3GS won't charge at all what do I do?

    my iPhone wont charge please help!

    Regarding iPhone 3GS won't charge:
    I have the same iPhone, and also sync with  iTunes on my Mac Book Pro computer.  After just a few months after purchasing my NEW iPhone 3GS, the charger stopped working and would not show up on the computer.  After trouble shooting my equipment, I discovered that the USB CORD was no longer working, NOT the AC Jack Component. My phone was still under warranty for 1year with Apple Care and extended purchased insurance  with VerizonWireless.  I contacted VerizonWireless as per my contract agreement, and was transferred to Apple Care Support.  Apple Care informed me: A new [Apple Manufactured Original Equipment parts] would be replaced free of charge, BUT, I would first need to secure the return of the defective equipment with a deposit of the purchase price on my credit card. After the receipt of my returned defective equipment, my credit card would be credited back for the full deposit amount.  This was NOT acceptable to me.  I called Verizon and they mailed me a new [VerizonWireless Manufactured part] USB Cord. After a time, I had to replace that USB cord also. Apparently the USB Cord burns out after a time of use.  SOLUTION; I keep about 4 new USB Cords in stock at home!!  You may also need to check if your iPhone software is up to date, this could effect it's performance also.
    Hope this helps

  • My iPod Touch will no longer charge from a wall socket, only my computer. HELP!

    My 4th generation iPod Touch will no longer charge from a wall socket, only my computer. I tried buying a new cable and USB charging socket (and I bought one made by Apple), but that did not fix the problem. I restored it from iTunes, hoping that would work as well, but that failed. I am at my wit's end. Can anybody here help me? I've bought new equipment, tried rebooting, restoring, etc. but nothing so far has proven successful. If anyone's got a solution, please help!
    Thanks!

    All I can suggest is the standared fixes. It seems very strange
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. Bring the cable and Apple wall charger too.
