Ipad does not charge on being connected to a computer or itunes. please help

On connecting to the computer, ipad is not charging. it syncs with itunes and gets updated but just wont charge on being connected to a computer ( I am using a windows Pc). Please help. However i have an iphone that charges perfectly with the same comp and the same itunes.
any suggestions are welcome

The iPad requires more power than the iPhone to charge it (it's wall charger is 10W as opposed to the iPhone's 5W), and a lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad

  • My ipad does not charge

    I am living in Sri Lanka, I recently got down an ipad2 from abroad.
    My ipad does not charge either when i connect it to my laptop or when i connect it to a power outlet. I charge my ipod using the same cable too, so it aught to be working.
    i have seen here that ipad does not charge well when connected to laptops. But i cannot understand why it wont charge when connected to the power outlet. Sri lanka has 230V. should i use something else with my power adapter to convert the electricity.pls help.
    it is frustrating when things dont work as you want them to. Specially new things

    It's normal for your iPad to not charge when plugged into a USB. The usb simply does not put out enough power. Technically it does charge,just very slowly (as in takes hours and hours)
    Also your iPod charger won't work on your iPad. iPod/iPhone chargers put out 5W, the iPad wants 10W.
    Are you using the power brick that came with your iPad? If not, that's the best thing to use.
    The iPad power brick is rated for world power, so all it should need is a plug adapter.
    You can try swapping out different USB cords and plugins.

  • Why iPad does not charge battery when is connected to my laptop?

    why ipad does not charge battery ehen is connected/sync to my laptop?

    Because most USB ports do not put out enough power to meet the iPad's minimum requirements. An iPad is best charged plugged into the wall with the supplied charger.

    The USB port on your computer does not provide enough power oto charge your iPad. This is normal. Charge it by plugging into a wall outlet.

    Hello and welcome...
    Try a different USB port on your computer and try a different wall socket.
    If that doesn't help, probably a good idea to take it in for service. You can make an appointment ahead of time. http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/

  • My Ipad is not charging when I connect it to my laptop, how can I proceed?

    My Ipad is not charging when I connect it to my laptop or desktop. What should I do? Thanks for your advices!

    My iPad 2 charges when connected to my MacBook Pro.
    http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html
    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.

  • Can my iPhone or iPad be keylogged without ever being connected to a computer?

    Can my iPhone or iPad be keylogged without ever being connected to a computer?
    I have tried using my iTunes on both and everytime i go and i try to log-in with my apple id it will not allow me to.  Says my password is incorrect when i know it is correct as I just used same password to download an App...  So i just decided to try and create a new apple id inside of iTunes and everytime I do it says email is already in use but I have even tried crazy things such as my birthday mixed with nicknames and date of graduation up to about 14 characters long and it keeps saying email already exists when no one in their right mind could or would create some of these...  Any help would be greatly appreciated to what the problem could be.  Phone is not jailbroken

    Do you know what could cause this and if so in which way can I fix it?

    Hi olivias,
    It sounds like there may be some confusion on your system about what application should be associated with PDF files. You can reset filename associations by following the steps in these articles (depending on your operating system):

    I'm going to assume that since you deleted your hard drive and all its files, you had a backup, yes? If the backup has an OS (bootable clone), then you can boot into it by holding down the option key when you start up you iMac and choose the backup drive. Then use Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper to copy the files back to your iMac.

  • My iphone does not charge or show up as a device in itunes when i plug it into my computer

    I've never had a problem connecting my phone to the computer, but in the last two or so weeks I have been unable to sync or charge my iphone 4 through my MacBook Pro (OSX). The phone does not charge and it does not show up in the "devices" section of itunes. The cord charges through an AC adaptor with no problems and my USB ports all work fine. I have done everything suggested so far, including deleting podcasts, restarting my computer, restarting the phone, uninstalling and reinstalling itunes... I'm not sure what else to do. Any suggestions would be very welcome!

    I removed the AMDS as part of the instructions for completely removing itunes. Nothing changed unfortunately. I don't understand why it is happening!
    I have already checked for lint, etc as you suggested, but don't have another USB cable on me at the moment. I'll be returning home tomorrow so will try then, but I would have thought the cable was fine as it still charges the phone through an AC adaptor fine. Thanks for the suggestions!

  • When I plug my connector cord between my iphone 4 and my laptop, it suddenly does not charge anymore like it always has before, although iTunes sees my phone. Any ideas?

    When I plug the connector cord between my iPhone 4 and my laptop, it does not charge now (as it always has in the past), although iTunes definitely sees my phone (so the connection is good). This also happened when I tried to charge my iphone in my car with an adaptor which used to work before too. Any ideas on why my phone is suddenly not charging anymore??

  • When I had my old blackberry connected to my computer, all incoming emails were routed to my outlook so I did not get mails on my blackberry.  How do I get it so my iphone4 does not receive emails when connected to my computer?

    I am getting my iphone inbox bombarded so would like it to not receive emails when connected to my computer.  My old blackberry had an app that took care of this which worked really well.  Am wondering if I can do the same with my iphone4.

    Blackberries were/are able to do that with some types of e-mail accounts because the mail is routed to an intermediary (BlackBerry Service).
    There is no equivalent for the iPhone as the phone communicates directly with the mail servers and does not go through a 3rd party.

  • I purchased an hp external cd drive, how can i boot from it? setup does not show it being connected

    When i connect the external drive it is being connect to a usb port.  When i go into the setup of the laptop it does not show an external drive being connected to the usb port.  My cd drive that came with the laptop does work, i tried it in my laptop, but on my daughters machine the cd drive is not being shown on the computer or in Device manager.  I upgrade out laptops from windows vista 32 to windows 7. The drive was working and one day my daughter went to go burn a cd and thats when we found out it is not showing on the computer. Her p/n is FE653UA#ABA - dv6910US.  I tried everything to get the drive to show up on the computer but had no luck, that is why i purchased an external drive. The drive i purchased is an HP 8x external dlim muliformat dvd/cd writer.
    I now need to figure out how I can boot from this external drive, can  anyone help me?

  • Satellite C855-1GQ: Battery does not charge - adapter is connected

    Hello,
    This is my first post here, I am hoping somebody can help me!
    I have a Toshiba Satellite C855 1GQ laptop.
    So, basically I managed to break the end of the original charger (the part which plugs into the laptop) and stupidly tried a similar fitting charger from another device which had a lower output than the Toshiba one,
    however when I plugged it in it killed the laptop battery as well as the adapter (it was an old one anyway). I have a new battery and a new charger adapter but the battery will not charge.
    When I first put the battery in it worked fine so the laptop itself is not broken, the laptop tells me that it is plugged in and charging but it just loses power until the battery goes flat.
    The new charger adapter does not seem to work despite the fact that it tells me it is with a working battery. The specifications for the new adapter are the same as the original (I got a cheapish one from ebay).
    Is there a fuse inside the laptop which may have blown when I stupidly used the adapter I shouldn't have? I have read a lot of possible solutions on this but none seem to be specific for my problem. Maybe the new adapter is not good enough?
    Like I said, the new battery worked fine until it ran out of power so it must be the charger or something on the laptop stopping it from charging.
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Cheers,
    Chris D.

    > Is there a fuse inside the laptop which may have blown when I stupidly used the adapter I shouldn't have?
    The usage of wrong and not compatible AC adapter will damage the notebooks hardware (motherboard could be affected)
    Very important is the fact that the original AC adapter supports the 19V (volt) output voltage and
    3.42A (ampere) output current.
    Usage of Ac adaptor with different output voltage (not 19V) would affect the hardware.
    The usage of AC adaptor with 19V output voltage but different ampere value should not affect the hardware.
    Furthermore low ampere value (< 3A) might not be good enough for battery charging
    But in case the AC adaptor is compatible, i would test definitely another, new, fully compatible battery.
