IPhone 5 not charging with Apple cord, but will with a cord I bought from amazon

My iPhone 5 will not charge using an apple certified cord. I bought an amazon cord awhile ago because the original cord started to break/split. Any fix for this? I'd like to use the cord my wife has for her 5s, but it doesn't work.

  • Why iPhone 5 not charge with its own charger but will with iPhone 4 charger

    why iPhone 5 not charge with its own charger but will with iPhone 4 charger. Thanks to the member who posted that fix.

    It sounds to me like the charger that came with the iPhone 5 is defective, or the cable is if you've been switching the cables when you switch the chargers.

  • IPhone 5 not charging - second apple cable not responding

    Hi, Ever since the ioS7 upgrade I have had problems charging my iPhone 5. The first apple cable I was using kept giving an error message when plugged into the macbook and then when plugged into the wall it was constantly vibrating and initiating the charge but not actually charging. I started using a brand new iPhone 5 charger and it worked for a few weeks and now I have exactly the same problem. An error message on the mac was that the usb was drawing too much power. Does anyone know how to resolve this, it seems I cannot charge my phone at all now! Thanks.

  • IPhone does not charge with outlet

    OK this is strange my iPhone 5c will not charge when plugged into a power outlet but will charge when plugged into my car or external battery.
    Recently my uiPhone 5c stopped charging when plugged into an outlet (through surge protector).  The battery level icon turns green but charge level goes down overnight.    I can plug the 5c into my car charger or externoa battery and it charges.  If I plug my iPhone 5 into the same charger the 5c was plugged into it charges.
    I have no flipping clue.

    Try plugging the charger block directly into the outlet, or another plug spot on your surge suppressor.  It is possible the charger block is bad.  If so, it comes with the same 1 year warranty as the phone.

  • TS1286 what can I do if I cannot sync with ITUNES as USB is not recognised, iphone is not charging and apple icon displays and then dissapears - loads and then dissapears....?

    I started having issues charging my Iphone and found that if it was switched off and on mains power it would charge.
    It does not allow syncing with Itunes and or usb conncection.
    I have a lot of photos on my phone that I have not been able to save (USB issue) and I am worried about retrieving these.
    If my phone is connected to mains power - the apple icon comes on - then it goes off - then a few seconds later the icon comes up again and then off again?
    Help please.
    Thanks

  • IPhone 5 not charging with iOS 7 update

    I updated to the iO7 software on my iPhone 5 and had no problems with that. The minute I plugged it in, it connects but says charged and thought it would charge by the morning. (My iPod touch with the update says "Battery Charging"). My battery is under 3% after trying to do a reset and now I can't use my phone. It is plugged in to my Laptop but have seen no progress on the batter power increasing. Any suggestions?

    Hi there,
    I woud try: restart / reset settings and then if issue persist a restore.
    If device has same issue a clean restore, meaning a force restore and setup device as new.
    If issue still appiers you can try calling AppleCare they have some tools they can try a low diag. or take device to the nearst Retail or Apple Service Provider for full diag.
    Tip: maybe try with other chargers.
    Hope it helps,

  • SLVR will not appear in Apple iTunes - but will appear as disk

    Just got a new SLVR from Cingular. I can't seem to get my iTunes on My mac to recognise it. It will appear as a disk, and I can copy files to it fine. It will also sync with bluetooth fine as well.
    I have tried the following:
    -Reinstall iTunes, ipod sync and phone driver. The install gave me the 'skip' option untill I manually removed system files etc)
    -Different cables
    -Different ports
    -Tried on a PC, and it works fine.
    My next step is to find another Mac. Any suggestions?

    Yes, that was one of my first steps. By deleting the reciept files as well as the .plist files. I was able to get live update to send me the phone driver update. When that didn't work I removed iTunes completely and reinstalled from a download.

    No it doesn't. Sometimes it make a sound that it should when connecting but that is it. Never actually charges or syncs. And it is a brand new cord.

    Hey guys,
    This is the problem. My father just got an iPhone 5. He has a Macbook Pro 2009 with OS X 10.5.8.  The iPhone is not compatible with this version since the iTunes is an older version as well. At our local Apple store in my home country, they told him he needs to upgrade (which I agree of) but that the memory of this computer is not enough to hold the newer OS.
    Please help, he does not really agree with buying a new computer just because of the versions.
    Thank you, I appreciate your help.

    This is what I have. Thank you so much rdr4lfe.

    It had about 10% batery left when it suddenly shot itselves off. and now when i try to charge it, it dosent work.... no life???
    Help

    Plug it in a wait for 15 minutes.  If the charge indicator doesn't show, try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • I got a hundred dollar charge your Apple ID but I can not use it

    I got a hundred dollar charge your Apple ID but I can not use it

    Do you mean that you've got an iTunes gift card, and if so why can't you use it ? All iTunes gift cards are country-specific, they can only be redeemed and used in their country of issue - if it's a US gift card then are you in the US with a US billing address on your account ? Or have you managed to redeem it but are having problems buying things ?
