IPhone doesn't see iPad charger

Hi,
My iPhone (first generation, purchased January 2008) does not recognize or respond to my iPad 2 charger when I plug it in.
It's not a cord issue: the iPhone charges fine when I plug the cord into the iPhone charger or into a USB port. It's the same whether I use the cord that came with the iPhone or with the iPad 2 or with an old iPod cord. The iPhone recognizes and charges on the iPhone charger and random USB ports but not on the iPad 2 charger.
On the other hand, my iPad 2 charges fine when connected to the iPad 2 charger, using any of the above cords. It will also charge via the iPhone adaptor (but not as quickly, of course).
Any thoughts as to why this might be?
Thanks!

Settings - general - resets - reset network settings on your iphone.
this will force the iphone to "forget" all your previous wifi access points and settings (WPA, WEP keys , etc) and you'll have to reenter them again.

IPhone Doesn't See WiFi

Hello all,
I am using a Time Capsule here at home for wireless internet, but my iPhone 3GS doesn't see it. Macs and PCs have no problems seeing it, and using it. Any ideas as to why my iPhone doesn't see it at all?
Thanks,
Jason

Yuppers, but you just can't do it in reverse since an iphone charger won't put out enough juice to effectively charge an ipad

ITunes doesn't "see" iPad

I have a new Macbook Pro 2.66 / 8 GB, 15" and an iPad and an iPhone. The problem is that every now and then - about once a day or so, iTunes doesn't see the iPad or iPhone when they are plugged in. The device starts charging but there is no indication that a sync is occuring.
Following the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747 I reinstall iTunes and replace the AppleMobileDevice kexts and then things are fine, but after another day or so the problem occurs again. I have not been able to determine what might be causing that. Any idea?

This totally does not address the problem. I have had my iPad for only a few days and I'm about to return it. I've been able to sync it once, after installing a new OS, then uninstalling iTunes... and then it just grabbed everything/apps from my iPod, most of which I would not have put on the new machine. Now I want to sync the apps I've purchased on the iPad and some music/movies and the computer doesn't "see" the iPad at all.
Users should not have to wipe/restore the machine. If Apple insists on using iTunes as a portal for all things iPad, then iTunes needs a serious overhaul. It's a music tool now being used to hobble a much more dynamic machine.
Anyhow - I like the iPad, but Apple isn't really letting me use it if I have to sync via iTunes, but iTunes isn't a functional tool.
Thanks - please give me an option other than reinstalling iTunes many times a doy or returning my iPad.

Is it ok to charge my iPhone 6 with my iPad charger

Is it ok to charge my iPhone 6 using my iPad charger

i do understand that, but frankly speaking, it takes approximately 3-4 hours to completely charge my phone from 1% to 100% (with 1A charger)
Comparatively, it would take less than one hour to top up my battery with 2.1A charger.
Hence, just thinking to myself that, "why didn't apple come with the 2.1A charger at the first place?"

My Iphone doesn't want to charge, please help?

I have 3g Iphone, and I had a bit battery problem last few days, but now it just doesn't want to charge. Can you please help me, to repair it?

Reboot your computer and the iPhone for starters.
If you're on a Windows PC, connect the iPhone and open your Device Manager. To do that, click your Start Menu and do a search for Device Manager. Or if you're on Windows 8, open the Charms Menu on the right side and do the search from there. Once in the Device Manager, go down to Portable Devices and click the small arrow to open the sub-menu. One should say Apple iPhone. Right click on that and try to Update Driver Software. If that doesn't work, you can uninstall the driver, unplug the phone, then plug it back in to get it to reinstall the driver. That might take care of it.
Are you able to get a hold of a different Lightning cable just to be sure it's not your cable? I've seen instances where these cables get bent or twisted, especially at the Lightning connector end, and the wire inside the sheathing breaks even though the outside looks fine.

Apple tv 2 AirPlay problem: doesn't see iPad or iPod

Hi,
I've a problem with my APple Tv 2.
The iPad doesn't see the Apple Tv, so I have to clear the setti gA about account and everything else and then everything workstation fine but not for long! If try the very Next day it doesn't works and i've to repeate tris annoying procedure once again!
Please help!

I'd still try to get rid of the coaster.
The cork is an insulator even if it feels warm it will prevent heat loss from the case of the Tivo below it, and will tend to keep heat in the sandstone above it which is conducting heat from AppleTV base.
I suspect the sandstone gets quite warm being in direct contact with the base of the AppleTV, but the heat can't go down through it's major surface area due to the cork insulating.
Some of my AppleTV's are of glass shelves - the heat will conduct into the glass but there's air below the glass that will keep it cooler - if there was a layer of cork underneath it would insulate against heat loss.
How about having 4 stacks of coins under each corner of the AppleTV to create an air-gap whilst minimising surface area (you could try 3 (2 front or back at corners, 1 in back/front center position, but might not be perfectly stable.
No harm trying.

My iPhone doesn't recognize my charging!

I connected my iPhone 4 to a speaker dock thingy and I rushed to take my phone out and later that day when I went to charge it, it didn't recognize the charger!! I have read related discussions but most of them seem like I have to go to the apple store to get it fixed. But one problem is is that whenever I connect my iPhone to the charger, I wait a few hours (mostly 2 hours) and it gains 4% still. It seems like it charges but it charges only little percent and my iPhone doesn't recognize it's charging!! PLEASE HELP ASAP

Whether anyone else has the problem or not is irrelevant. You have it. I'm sure that among the 900 million iOS devices sold there is at least one other one with the same problem. But how does knowing that help you?
What troubleshooting have you done so far? Have you tried a different cable? A different USB adapter? Is it an Apple adapter or an aftermarket adapter? Is it an Apple cable or an aftermarket cable? Are you trying to use the wall adapter or a computer? If you are using a computer try the wall adapter.
Have you tried cleaning the dock connector on the bottom of the phone? Remove any lint or dirt in it, and inspect it for damage or corrosion using a magnifying glass.

My Iphone doesn't want to charge! Help?

Okay so here's the thing!
I plug my no battery iphone to my mac and it's like pluged but it ain't charging...
And I can't restore it because it doesn't recognize my iphone anymore.
I tried to pluged it with another cable and it doesn't charge!
I need some help here, because my iphone won't open at all.

Did you check the docking connector for any kind of debris or lint?
Did you try to use the adapter?
If you can charge it 10 min by using the adapter the adapter, try to connect in recovery mode after that. iOS: Unable to restore

IPhone doesn't see ringtone from ITunes

I recently created a ringtone using a song from Itunes. I changed the format to the proper one, and I see it in the Tones file when I plug my phone in since I've synched, but it does not show up on the list on tones to choose from under "Sounds" on the Iphone.

where does it say this?
It doesn't say this anywhere, same way it doesn't mention how it can't make toast. Apple doesn't list features the product doesn't have. It just doesn't do it.
and why???
To prevent music piracy.

Iphone doesn't see albums from the cloud

My iPhone 5s doesn't show all of my albums after I update iTunes Match. I can see them on my wife's 5s but not mine. I tried turning match off on my phone and then back on again but still no joy.
Anyone else experience this please?

Check System Preferences/App Store to make sure it is set to check for updates automatically.

Itunes doesn't see ipad - and I've tried all the remedies

My ipad 2 (ios5) isn't recognised as a device in iTunes on my iMac (running 10.6.8). I've tried all the fixes that apple recommends and tried all the suggestions on forums - updated software, different cables, ports etc. Nothing works. Any ideas?

Here is my standard reply so you can match it against what you have already done -
Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
Thirdly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs
And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -

Flash Pro Doesn't See Ipad - Debugging

Hi. I have both Flash Pro CS6 and CC. For some reason, under the debug heading the option "on device via USB" is always greyed out, completely unselectable. This is strange because I am able to publish perfectly fine from flash builder. Do I need to do something extra to make flash pro aware that I am connecting an ipad?

can you see your usb connected device in a file browser?
have you ticked install application on connected ios device in the air for ios settings panel?
with flash cc, did you click the refresh device list debug>debug movie>on device via usb?

IMac doesn't see ipad

Connecting my iPad to my computer the iPad is not visible in iTunes.
A few days ago everything worked perfectly.

Have I done something wrong?

If one of your Macs is earlier than 2012 model, you must use Legacy Airdrop for Mac to Mac connections. If you have one newer and one older, on the newer Mac, select the link that says something like, "not finding what you expect." That will put the new Mac into Legacy Airdrop.
You cannot Airdrop between a "legacy" Mac and iOS.
