You can safely use it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4327
If you do it the other way around (the iPhone charger with the iPad), then you will find the charging of the iPad very slow.

Will charging my iPhone 4S with iPad 4th generation 12w power adapter, ruin my battery?

Situation: my iPhone 4S is 4 months old, have had ZERO issues with battery life, until yesterday...
I just bought the newest iPad last week (retina display) and yesterday I plugged the iPhone 4s usb cable into the iPad 12w power adapter, to charge my 4s. Now my iPhone 4S is losing 1% every 4-5 minutes (not exaggerating, in fact it may be draining even faster than that). This is occurring even though all programs are closed and the phone is locked (screen is black)... Normally my battery will lose 5-10% while I sleep, last night it was dead within 5 hours !
I'm pretty disappointed becuz it seems I have ruined the battery. Can anyone think of any other reason for this to be happening?
In an attempt to rule out any software issues or potential malware, I backed up my 4s, put it in recovery mode and proceeded with a factory restore. Following that I restored from backup. To my dismay the freefall battery drainage is continuing :(
What are my options (if any) apart from heading over to apple store tomorrow to get bent over a barrel? Any help would be appreciated ....
Many thanks and happy holidays !

Okay it's been 15 minutes and battery is still at 100%.
I have ton of apps and music as well as photos etc... I'm using 58Gb. So getting my stuff back on is a top priority. The only thing I did on the 24th (day the problem started) that I can think of, was register with talkatone (googles VoIP App). I'm thinking I delete that App from iTunes before restoring from backup?
Your help is much appreciated!

Why can I charge me iphone with my car's usb port but not my ipad?

Why can I charge my Iphone in my car using USB connection but not my Ipad?

Because the iPad requires a lot more power to charge than your iPhone, and typically car and computer USB ports simply don't proivide that much.
Its the same reason your iPhone comes with a 5Watt charger (and even then the iPhone only uses part of that) while the iPads come with the 10 or 12 watt charger.
They just need more power.

TS3274 ipad connecting to laptop----not charging? to power----charging is not supported with this accessory.

anyone assist me. it was ok every time .now the charging very slow . one hour charge 1%. it is 1st generation. battery life running out?

The quickest way (and really the only 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 (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (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%.

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.

HT4060 I have a new IPAD I started charging it 3 hours ago when it had 29% power and it has not moved. Any suggestions?

I having problems charging my IPAD. It has been charging now for 3 hours and has not budged from 29%

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
Or - Recalibrate the battery. See link below.
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.

IPad 2 charger on iPhone 4s?

Is it okay to use the bigger more powerful iPad 2 charger to charge your iPhone 4S? And how about the reverse?
I had my iPad connected to a Dell latitute laptop during setup (via USB) and it was in a state of "not charging". I assume this was because the USB port wasn't able to provide high output to charge the device? Will an iPhone chargine device charge the iPad 2 but at a slower rate?
Thanks,

I am using iphone 5C when I use to data cable to charge it from my laptop I always get an error message saying 'Power Surge on hub port'. I am not able to charge my iphone

I am using iphone 5C when I use to data cable to charge it from my laptop I always get an error message saying 'Power Surge on hub port'. I am not able to charge my iphone at all. Please help

I have read that usb hubs usually have only 1 port at a high enough watts = volts x amps iPads need 10watt = 5v x 2 amps so when you use more devices it may share the power so I would buy a usb charger with 2+ amp ports if you want to just charge your devices the computer hub are not designed for that just communication

Can I use the Ipad Wall Adapter and my Iphone USB cord to charge my Iphone 5s?

I heard that the IPad wall adapter will charge an IDevice faster, so I was wondering if I used my IPads wall adapter and my IPhones USB cord to charge my IPhone 5s, will it be okay?

You are welcome. Knowing which chargers are interchangeable helps when traveling, I only carry the iPad charger now since it works fine with the iPhone. The other way around will not work, however. You cannot charge an iPad with an iPhone charger, the power rating is too low.

Can I use my iPad charger to charge my iPhone and vice versa?? Will it cause any damage?

Hi
I have an iPhone 4S and iPad 2 and have been swapping the chargers about when charging. Now a friend tells me that this isn't good and I should use the specific charger for each. Firstly, is this right??
Secondly, I now no longer know which charger belongs to which product. Does anyone know the voltage for each?? (I live in the UK, not sure if this would make a difference).
Thirdly, I also have a MacBook Pro. Can I charge my iPhone and iPad from this without causing damage?
Thanks in advance
Ben

iPad charger: 10 or 12W (Apple uses Watts)
iPhone charger: 5W
The iPad charger looks larger than the iPhone one. Additionally, the iPad charger can be used with an extension cable, unlike the iPhone charger. You should notice that the iPad charger has a detachable plug.
It is more than safe to use an iPhone with an iPad charger. I don't recommend the other way around (using an iPad w/iPhone charger) but the iPad 2 doesn't syphon power like the iPad 3/4 do.

iPhone and iPod: Using the iPad 10WUSB Power Adapter, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4327
While designed for use with the iPad, you can use the iPad 10W USB Power Adapter to charge all iPhone and iPod models. When charging an iPhone 3G with a 10W USB Power Adapter, you may notice that the battery indicator does not increase. If this occurs, or if your battery indicator doesn't update after charging, restart your iPhone 3G to display the correct battery level.

Can I charge my iPad mini and/or my iPhone 4S from 220 volt outlets using just the correct plug adapter for the country.

Can I charge my iPad mini and/or my iPhone 4S from 220 volt outlets using just the correct plug adapter for the country, without a power converter?

Not staff or owner by a long shot.
I just know that anecdotally I have seen people reporting issues with their mini's charging. Is there a real issue or not? I don't know. Not a day goes by that a person doesn't post here complaining that their iPad won't charge and it turns out that they're trying to do it via USB or with the iPhone block.
But while there are a lot of user fixes sometimes it's good to have the pros take a look at things,and at the very least document that there has been an issue.
the four main reasons an iPad won't charge (beyond being plugged into a USB port)
Bad cable
bad outlet
bad brick
rule those out and it leaves issue with the iPad.
