Ipad 2 charger error
Hi guys! I have done a crazy thing. Accidently, the charger head was dropped into the tea, and apparently the magnetic inside not only got the water, but the particles of tea leaves!
I have tried to wipe it out, but it won't clean. And when I tried to plug it back to Ipad 2, it won't charge.
How can I clean the charger? Or is it permanently damaged? I need help!
I'd give it a few days to dry out. Some even put devices in a bag of rice (the raw/dry rice will wick away any trace of moisture). Then give it a try. It'll work or not. But, right now, if there's any moisture it could cause the charger to short out and then it will be dead.

I am using the wall charger - not the computer. And I'm not using the iPad 2 when it's charging. (Sorry to reply in this way but when I click on reply I get an error message.) so 3-5 hours is normal? That seems like a LONG time to me compared to iPhone and Kindle....

Charging Tips
The quickest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W 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. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode. 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.

I have the ipad mini. After I did the update to 6.1, when I plug it in to charge it says "Not Charging" next to the battery icon. Even though it says not charging and the battery icon doesn't show the connection, it is still getting charged. Does anyone else have this problem? I am hoping it is a 6.1 glitch
So...after a back to the basics trouble shooting session, my ipad is free from that false "not charging" error. Whatever 6.1 did to work out other battery issues, made my aftermarket wall plug show a little short on power. That plug worked on 6.0.2, and still does fine on my iPhone on iPod. I like the aftermarket plug because it has a better angle for the USB cable. Back to using the apple plug so I don't have to see that false error and it charges a bit faster too

I am unable to receive or send email from my IPAD. The error message says "Connection to server failed". Help!! geandreamer44
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
If nothing above helped, restart your router.
No data is lost due to a reset. -

Cannot get iPad 2 charged beyond 1%. All charging ports tried: AC adapter(s), USB 2 port on MacBook Pro. ITunes shows iPad only for a few seconds. iPad displays alternately: Apple logo, battery w/slim red band, then battery w/1% charged information. How can I get it to charge beyond 1% so I can proceed to troubleshoot?
I have had your exact problem with my old 3GS, now I cannot even get it to turn on, I still see that it is supposed to be charging though, but it never charges any so it seems.
I replaced the Lower Dock Connector Assembly back when it still charged while hooked to my PC, and it found it made no real difference.

At this point I am not sure if I should replace the battery and hope for the best, or just junk the phone, I cannot really sell it if I cannot reset it... -
HELP ipad not charging or connecting to pc
ipad 1 doesnt charge unless it is turned off fully it does not say anything on the batery sign i want to restore it but i can cause it doesnt show up on the pc or laptop
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

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.

I have bought several tv seasons from the itunes store. Recently some episodes will not sync with my ipad. The error message is that the file "could not be read or written". Previous episodes of the same series synced successfully. Also while watching the same episode on my laptop (Mac Book Pro) it freezes.
I had this same message appear today when i was putting new music on my ipod touch 4th gen. The only difference is that I wasnt using an external drive. I was using the one on my computer. This is the first time i have had this problem

Hi there, can't get my 1st ten. IPad to charge.
Help! Can't get my 1st gen. IPad to charge!
Are you using the charger that came with the iPad? Admittedly the labeling is hard to read but, if you use a magnifier and squint your eyes, you'll see "Output 5.1V, 2.1A." The symbol between volts and amps is the symbol for DC. Do NOT use an iPhone charger. Do NOT use an iPod charger.
If you are using the correct charger, you may well have either a charger problem or a battery problem and you need to contact Apple. 800-275-2273 in the U.S.A. and I think Canada. -
I will be traveling to Rome and Paris and I'm concerned about frying my iPad when charging. Will I need a converter/adapter when charging or will I just use an adapter?
what RBRY says. Look at the fine print on your power brick. It says 100v-240v. This means it can handle world wattage.....both the us 110 and the UK/and other places 220. Anything that displays that range works anywhere in the world with the right plug adapter.
You can get plug adapters at walgreens, walmart, target, kmart, best buy, office max, office depot.....almost any major retailer. Look in the travel/luggage area.
Do some googling and find out what Italian plugs look like or you can simply find a kit that is a 'world wide' kit. -
Wifi iPad 3 charger stopped working after updating to iOS 6, help!
Wifi iPad 3 charger stopped working after updating to iOS 6. The little iPhone charger charges it very very slowly, but the charger gets really hot after a while. I restored it and everything works but the charger. It's only a few months old, should I try a new iPad wall charger block?
Hi,
I did this after reading the forums and it made no difference. it has actually charged from 14% to 67% but thats taken over 12 hours.
Will monitor it and if no joy will go to a apple store
Thanks -
