Ipad2 not charging or syncing

I got an ipad2 for christmas, has been fantastic.  It now has decided not to charge either on the computer or the power.  Occasionally it will partially charge on power if it is turned off.  When connected to my computer, it doesnt register with itunes at all.  Why is this please??

First thing I'd try is a reboot of your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appear. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If that doesn't work you might run the iPad until the battery is dead and it shuts itself off. Then plug in your charger to the wall outlet. Double check you are using the correct charger and not one from an iPhone or iPod. It might take a long time to start charging and eventually charge.
If that doesn't work then it might be time for a visit to Apple service. Hopefully your warranty will cover the problem.

  • Ipod not charging or syncing

    My ipod touch 3rd gen 8gb is not charging or syncing to itunes.  ALL i get is a red battery when I plug it in and then the apple sign, but never charges or syncs.  What can I do and what is wrong with this?  thank you

    You can try a different cord and see if there's an issue with that. But if you replicate it with a different cord then y ou may be having battery issues iwth your iPod. If you're within the first year's warranty you can take it into our local apple store and have them take a look at it.

    Hi there mtbbill,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
    Resolving issues
    If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
    Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
    Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
    Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
    If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
    Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
    Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
    Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
    Plug the device in to power and let it charge until your device turns on. This could take between 10 and 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
    If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
    If the issue persists, please contact Apple Support.

  • IPod Touch 4th gen will not charge, or sync to iTunes

    Hello, I have a 2 year old iPod 4th gen 32 gb.  About a week ago a realized that when a charged it the charging screen did not appear.  I made no big deal about it since it still charged, but then I tried to connect it to my cpu to see if anything changed, nothing did (it also cannot connect to iTunes to my cpu but can connect to the app just fine).  So I went on with it but recently it stopped charging all together.  I'd power it down at night and turn it on in the morning and didn't charge at all past 20% So I powered it down and this image came up.Yes, I have seen this image before but when I plugged it in and got the  charging screen after it died.  But now it cannot get past this screen I left it plugged in all day and it doesn't do anything else.  I can reset it after 10 minutes to wake it up but it dies again almost right away now normally i would just toss this away, since how old it is but I'm getting an iPhone soon and I want to be able to transfer everything over, to the iPhone but it keeps dying before i can do anything.  And I would like to fix it so I could sell it for some cash.

  • TS2771 Ipod connects to tv, but will not charge or sync

    My ipod was charging fine on my drive home. I connected it to my tv with the video cable and was watching netflix. Then I got a message that the battery was at less than 20%, even though the ipod had been connected to the wall charger the entire time I was watching.
    I've tried every charger, every cable, every dock, and every computer I own now, and it will not charge with any of them. Neither my desktop or laptop will recognize that it is connected. The ipod never shows that it is connected or charging. I tried pushing the power & home buttons to reset it and still have the same problem. The reset made no difference. And I'm low on power so there's not much else I can do before it completely runs out of charge.
    Any idea why it would give out on me so suddenly, or what I can do to fix it?

    Hi,
    This is a user-to-user forum. Everyone is voluteering their time. Sometimes you need to wait more that 4 minutes for an answer.
    Many USB ports do not supply enough power to charge an iPad. It may be charging but very slowly and only when the screen is dark. Your best bet is to charge it using the wall charger.
    It's a little hard to answer your second question without more details. However, have a look at this article:
