    Try another outlet to make sure that isn't the issue. If it still doesn't work you will need to replace your charger.

  • IPhone 4 will not charge from wall... help!

    I've had my iPhone 4 for going on two years and never had any major issues with it. As of the last couple days, I'm having a major problem charging my phone. In the beginning, it wouldn't charge from the wall or via USB on my laptop. However, it would charge via USB when plugged into a regular windows PC. Really strange if you ask me.
    After browing through some similar questions already asked on here, I found a solution for the laptop problem. I was able to update a driver in the device manager and am now able to charge via my laptop and also connect so that I can sync my phone, etc.
    It still won't charge with the regular wall charger! Which uses the same USB cord that I'm using in my computer.
    Originially, I had 2 wall chargers that I've had forever and when neither one of them were working the other day, I thought they were faulty so I went out and bought a new charger. It worked! I thought I was home free. Wrong. It worked for 1 afternoon and then it stopped working again (but it's the same one that I'm now using in my laptop)... so it only doesn't work when plugged into the wall.
    I've tried multiple power blocks, multiple USB cords, multiple wall outlets.
    No idea what the issue is!
    I also tried a hard reset (power/home button) on my phone, it didn't do anything.
    Also, all of my software is up to date (iOS 6.1.3).
    I might just suck it up and head to Apple/Verizon tomorrow and see if they can figure it out, but in the meantime, does anyone have any ideas?!
    Thanks!

    Check the bottom of the iPhone and make sure there is no lint or debris on the connector that the power/sync cord attaches to.  Also with a very low battery, you may have to let the iPhone charge several minutes before you get any indications. If none of the above solves the problem, try another cable.  You might also want to try a car charger if you've got one.

  • IPhone 6 will not charge from some chargers in 8.1.3

    I have an iPhone interface in my car (VW Tiguan MDI) that allows my car to play music from the iPhone 6.  It also charges the phone - at lease it did before 8.1.3.  After I upgraded, the iPhone would charge for about a half a second, then it would stop for about 2 seconds, and this cycle would repeat indefinitely.  I tried restarting, resetting and killing all the apps but nothing worked.  Oddly, my son's iPhone 5 (also 8.1.3) can charge from it just fine.
    I ended up downgrading back to 8.1.2 and it now works fine, just like before.  The only change was the IOS version.
    Anyone else seen this?
    Carl...

    Apple store replaced the phone and lightning cable this morning.  She said it was Hardware issues.  Well it worked fine up until I updated to 8.1 software.  The cable broke while I was removing it from the phone in front of the tech.  This afternoon I purchased a 6' lightning cable with braided jacket for under $20 bucks at Sams.  Well worth the money. The reason the cable broke was due to the small area left to grab the connector while my phone is in the Otterbox defender case I received yesterday.

  • Iphone 4 will not charge from wall or computer ?help

    HI
    I noticed my phone had a low battery. Once i got home the phone was dead. Tried charging as usual using the apple leads to the wall - but nothing comes up on the screen - no 'charging symbol' instead the phone remains dead. Any ideas?

  • My ipod will not charge from a wall socket but will charge using the same cable if the usb end is plugged into a computer or an airport power source. My iphone and ipad charge fine on the same cable usin ghte same wall plug in the same wall socket?

    My ipod will not charge from a wall socket but will charge using the same cable if the usb end is plugged into a computer or directly into an airport power source. My iphone and ipad charge fine on the same cable using the same wall plug in the same wall socket. This makes no sense but I see that it has been posted as a problem elsewhere. This must be due to some kind of degredation of the Ipod. . It is not fixed by IOS resets as others have noted.
    Has anyone asked Apple directly about this?

    Hi there Apples or Pears,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the articles below.

  • IPhone will not charge from wall socket only from Laptop or Computer!

    Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
    My IPhone will charge sometimes and sometime it wont:
    I mean like sometimes it will charge from the wall socket and sometimes it wont!
    It will go so far as to turn off because of no battery life! Then I plug it in to the Laptop and it starts charging!

    I have had this problem for some time. It applies to both a wall charger (the one that came with iPhone and a third-party model) and a car charger (third party). Both wall and car chargers are rated at 1000 ma which should be enough power. Yet when the battery charge goes below a certain level the phone will not charge from wall or car charger, but it will charge from a computer.
    I did some research on USB power. Per specification, a USB client (the iPhone) cannot draw more than 100 ma from the USB host (charger or computer or hub) unless it asks for and gets permission to draw more current. (This is so it does not interfere with other USB devices connected to the host.)
    Inexpensive wall chargers do not contain any computing elements. They short the D+ and D- lines together. This makes it impossible for a client to negotiate a higher current draw, so the iPhone, working per the USB standard, limits itself to 100 ma. When connected to a computing device such as a computer or USB hub, the iPhone can negotiate a higher current, up to the 500 ma currently allowed by the USB standard.
    This begs the question, why can't the iPhone charge on 100 ma when the battery is almost completely discharged? After all, when the battery has more charge, the iPhone will charge nicely from a wall charger. Perhaps someone has some insight into this aspect.
    There is evidently a new USB standard for wall chargers that will fix this issue. Both the host and client must implement in order for it to work. (I haven't read the standard, but suspect it involves the client detecting that the D+ and D- lines are shorted together.) Obviously, either the charger or my iPhone 3G don't comply with this new standard. Maybe the iPhone 3GS does? Or maybe we have to wait for another iPhone model that has the hardware that complies with the new USB wall charger standard.
    Meanwhile I have to be careful not to fully discharge my iPhone battery when I am away from a computer. I recently went on a 30-day trip and had no problem because I charged the phone every night. Of course, I did not use it much because it was an international trip and AT&T roaming rates are horribly expensive.

  • IPhone's 4S & 5 will not charge from wall charger

    Similarly to everyone else, I have updated my iPhone 5 & also 4S to IOS 6.1.3.
    The batteries in both phones are draining very fast just as a lot of other people are commenting on, but also both phones will not charge from various devices that do work.
    I have 2 cables that both work in the car an on my PC, neither now work when connected to a GPO.
    This started straight after the phones were updated.
    Thoughts; advice please.

    i did the basic stuff OF COURSE .... but i am NOT willing to go through the pain of restoring my phone just because Apple screwed up another IOS update ..... i am really getting sick of thiose half-baked updates that break more things than fix ....

  • Iphone 4 will not charge anymore from the car stereo

    Ever since I have updated to iOS5 my IPhone 4 will not charge via the car stereo connection. It worked fine before this but now no charge. I am using a scosche adaptor that was recommended by the nice people in my local Apple store but the IPhone has stopped charging.
    I use my IPhone a lot as a sat-nav and find that when I get to my destination there is little or no power left in the battery.
    Any ideas?

    Check the bottom of the iPhone and make sure there is no lint or debris on the connector that the power/sync cord attaches to.  Also with a very low battery, you may have to let the iPhone charge several minutes before you get any indications.

  • Iphone 4  will not charge until battery totally dead

    My iphone 4 will not charge until the batter is run fullly down. After the phone powers itself down automatically due to lack of charge. Then and only then the phone will take a charge. Has anyone else had this happen or know how to fix this?

  • New iPad 3 will not charge from a mac. need help on that

    my new ipad 3 will not charge from a mac. need help why if any one knows? thk

    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. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html
    Also, if you have a 3rd generation iPad, look at Apple: iPad Battery Nothing to Get Charged Up About

  • My iPhone 4 will not charge and is now dead.

    My iPhone 4 will not charge and is now dead.  I updated the software about 2 weeks ago but since the phone is dead I can find out which version I have.  It started giving me the prompt "this accessory does not support charging this device".  I tried charging in my car, two separate wall chargers and on my MacBook Pro.  Have never had a problem charging it before.  When I would try to charge it, I would get a green battery icon with a plug in it, indicating the battery was fully charged.  I now have it plugged into a wall charger, it shows the lighting bolt and nearly drained battery but the phone will not turn on.  Any ideas?
