IPhone 4 does not charge on my company notebook

Hello
I have an iPhone 4 and wanted to charge it with USB on my new company laptop but it didn't charge. (Lenovo)
So I tried the same iPhone with the same cable on a different laptop and it does charge.
Ok, so it sounds like the issue is on the laptop side BUT when I use another iPhone 4 from a coworker with my cable it charges on my new company laptop????
You guys have an idea what this can be?
Thanks in advance!
BR Benjamin

I have the exact same problem - did you find a solution?
Just got the new Imac Retina - and my iphone 5S wont charge when I connect it!? It charges just fine elsewhere - and it syncs fine with the Imac using wifi as well.
Any ideas anyone?

IPhone 4 Does not charge or get recognized by laptop and the home button does not work at all.

The home button on my iPhone 4 does not work at all. Also, when i plug it in to charge, it does not charge at all, and it doesn't even say that it is connected. What will Apple do about this if i send it off? Will I get a replacement? All answers much appreciated.

Buenas Matias,
Si, pude solucionarlo hace unos dias, al final me arriesgue y compre el "dock connector", un juego de destornilladores para iPhone 4, lo desarme y lo cambie, y al toque empezo a cargar.
No queria esperar semanas para el repuesto de iFixit asi que lo compre en MercadoLibre, estan 160 mangos, y si no te queres arriesgar a desarmarlo y cambiarlo vos, hay algunos que te hacen la instalacion tambien.
Pero primero averigua bien que tengas el mismo problema que yo, o sea el dock connector sirve para lo q describi arriba. Si tenes otro sintoma te recomiendo que investigues porque capaz es otra cosa y terminas gastando un repuesto al pedo.
Espero que te sirva.
Saludos
Gonzalo.

My iphone 5 does not charge anymore, and i just bought a new charger. Help anyone? Thank you

Hello everyone,
My iphone 5 is not charging any longer, well there must be a bad contact or something, because it works about 50% of the time.
Thinking it was my old charger, I bought a new one, and I still have the same problem, plus sometimes it says it's not an official product so it doesn't charge.
I've had the iphone for one year exactly, and I'd rather not buy another charger if it's going to be useless...
Thank you for any help you may be able to provide.

Check the socket in base of iPhone for fluff and or any debris a common cause of apparent charger failure

Battery of my Iphone 5 does not charge.

Dear all,

When switching the main display flickers and shows for 2 sec
battery symbol (empty and small red line for exhaust battery)
Has anybody the same problem. thanks for any help.

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:

There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

IPhone 4 does not charge, or turn on.

My brother gave me his iPhone 4. He told me it has power issues but it don't turn on, it does not take a charge. I've seen videos and post about people and there iPhone 4 has the "Blank Screen of Death". I cannot reboot the iPhone 4. I'm sure you have to do something like hold the power button and the home button but it don't work. Can someone tell me how exactly how to do this because it's very confusing. The iPhone 4 was last turned on last month but it just shut off and stopped working and stopped charging. I need someone to tell me how to resolve this because I don't have time to go into a Apple Store or AT&T Store. I'm barrowing a charger from a friend and it is a Belkin iPod/iPhone Charger. It may have soemthing to do with it. Does the iPhone 4 charger different from any other older model iPhone? I need someone to help me. Thanks!

This happened with my 3GS. What I did is master default it, to do that hold down the lock screen key and the home key at the same time. The little apple symbol should pop up. For some reason, it just shut itself off and wouldn't do anything. Holding down both, from what I understand, kind of resets it without deleting anything. It worked with mine, I hope this helps with yours!

Iphone 5 does not charge via USB laptop in sleep

I hook my iPhone 5 up to my Lenovo G570 laptop. When the laptop is not sleeping, the iPhone charges just fine.
When the laptop sleeps, the iPhone no longer charges.
BUT.... The USB port on the laptop powers and charges other USB devices just fine, even when asleep.
ONLY the iPhone 5 stops charging when the laptop sleeps.
Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
(When I travel, its nice to be able to charge my iPhone *without* having to actually wake up the laptop)

Connect the device directly to a USB port on your computer (not an external keyboard) using the USB cable that came with the device. Your computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode; otherwise, the battery may drain instead of charge.If using a portable computer, make sure it is plugged in to power and that the display (or lid) is open. If the display is closed, the computer may go into standby, sleep, or hibernation mode and the device may not charge.
*** Unless you have a Chinese iPhone. They DO charge when laptops are asleep, apparently. Go figure.

IPhone 4 does not charge

Hello,
It's been two days that I've been trying to charge my iPhone using the adapter charger that came with the phone but getting the battery more percentage, it's going the opposite way. I have done all possible attempts to fix it: cleaning and removing the lint from iPhone docking charge adapter, shutting down the iPhone and turning it back on with the charger attached, resetting the iPhone and it's contents... All invain.
I'm thinking now that the battery might be dead. Can anyone give me any suggestion what else can be done?
Thanks...

My iPhone 3GS does not charge with any device. It suddenly won't even be recognized by Windows (Code 52 error) and it won't charge. It seems to boot if a charger if plugged in.

A dock won't work, I'm not sure if it's charging while it's off.

Working again (I took it to my local Geinus Bar the next day.)

IPhone 3GS no longer recognized in iTunes and does not charge via wall

I upgraded my iMac to iTunes 9.2 when it came out.
My wife then upgraded her iPhone 3GS to iOS4.
Since then it is not recognized in iTunes and does not charge via the wall adapter.
I realize this topic crosses over with several ongoing discussions, but there are no 3rd party peripherals involved here.
The only major changes to our set up have been the itunes and iOS upgrades.
The battery is running down, any ideas to fix this, or other similar experiences welcome.

Went to the Apple store and they replaced the cable.

from the information you provided i can't tell if it is a hardware problem or a software problem. I do have an idea though, try to press your home button and lock button at the same time.

HT1476 iphone 5 usb does not charge in my 2013 Honda Accord. Is there a fix for this issue?

iphone 5 usb does not charge in my 2013 Honda Accord. Is there a fix for this issue? It will connect via bluetooth but when I go to connect the usb charger it states that it is not compatible or you never get the charging display on your iPhone 5. It charges just fine when I use the AC charger in the house. At first I thought it may have been the cord but the same cord works fine in the house too. This causes problems when you take long trips and don't have any way to charge your phone while on the road. Are there any upcoming fixes/iupdates either to the software or usb cord that will fix this?

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!

As I said above, some of the new lightning cables have been known to be causing problems for some users. Have it replaced if at all possible by bringing it into your local Apple Store's Genius Bar.
