Iphone4 not charging after 4%

i have an iphone4 and the problem is the charging cable keeps getting spoiled...and now the phone doesn't get charged above 4%..what could the problem be ? Is it the iphone issue ..? or yet another charging cable replacement required?

Try resetting it: Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release. Try charging it now.

Of course it isn't — you've just drained it. Plug your AC adapter in and charge it up again.

My Iphone 4 will not charge after ipdate to IOS 7.0.4, Does anyone have a solution ? I have tried apple cables and chargers. I see many have the same issue. Anyone made progress ?

No offence, but as with quite a few others, my Iphone stopped charging on mains after iOS 7.0.4 update too.
Not sure you can categorically advise that "it simply is not a software issue" when so many different people are having the same symptoms after updating their iOS Just have a quick Google!
Luckily my (original Apple) cable will still allow recharging via USB to a laptop. So, process of elimination would point to a bricked charger that was working faultlessly up until the iOS 7.0.4 update was applied. Seems quite a stretch to be a coincidence.
Look forward to an explanation ..... and an update? ......

Iphone4 not charging, pls. help!

iphone4 not charging, pls. help!

I'm also having a problem with charging. I tried to download photos to my computer (which didn't work) and now it wont charge on any charger. My husbands phone connects to same computer and will charge on all chargers. I have tried the reset described above but it said to connect to a charger (it was plugged in).
Please help!!! I have less than 20% charge left. Had the exact same problem a couple of months ago with my original phone which was under warrantee. This one is not!

IPad 2 switched off and not charging after iOS 7.1 update

iPad 2 switched off and not charging after iOS 7.1 update. Pls help me. I have tested my charger. Its working in another device. But my iPad 2 is not charging with other adapters too. What to do??

Hello, 92.romil.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would make sure you are using an Apple branded cable with your iPad. If you are, the troubleshooting steps in the article below may help. The steps listed below for the iPhone and iPod still apply to your iPad.
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 for up to 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 is persists, please contact Apple Support.

Ipad2 will not charge after ios7

Tried reset many times. Tried several apple cords.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) 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 (2.5W, 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.

Why would my older iPod not charge after sitting dormant for while?

Why would my iPod classic not charge after sitting dormant?

Be patient, leave it connected to a USB 2.0 port or wall charger, for at lease 2 hours.
It would normally takes about 30 minutes of charging, before the iPod Classic screen comes to life, if the battery has not gone bad.

Ipad mini not charging after 6.1.2 ios update

I just updated my pad to the latest ios, then what i noticed is that it can't charge anymore. Charging is is still possible through laptop though but it's TOO SLOW... this is surely because of the update... what can we do... hopefully apple fixes this SOON...

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
Or - Recalibrate the battery. See link below.

Battery Not Charging after 10.6.8 Update (Macbook Pro 13' i5 2011)

Hi,
I own a 4 months old Macbook Pro 13in with i5 processor. I was using it normally until yesterday, when a software update prompting for enhancements on thunderbolt drivers and some stuff regarding OS X Lion was displayed. I started the software update, let the macbook plugged in and went to sleep.
Today I found out that my battery is not charging anymore (when plugged in, the magsafe led lights green and the energy saver displays Not Charging). I've already tried to restart SMC to no result(unplugged, waited for 15 sec, plugged again and after 5 sec turned it on).
Basically, my macbook is now useless. I use it mainly in the college, cant have it always plugged in and my second half classes start tomorrow!
I dont have a time machine backup.
I dont want to open the macbook since its still under warranty. What should I do?

MacBook Pro not charging after OSX Lion 10.7.2 upgrade

After making the upgrade to OSx Lion 10.7.2 my MacBook Pro 2011 (2 months old) does not charge anymore, before worked perfectly.
Magsafe led was off, and battery indicator said power source is not connected. After the battery drained to empty, the magsafe turned on, but goes green to orange to off in cycles. During the cycles, the battery indicator was cycling also from calculating, not charging, etc. and the display was dimming like if I was plugin in and plugin off the magsafe connector. After having the computer connected during all night, now is charged but magsafe does not charge anymore.
I tried the SMC reset and chacked that firmware is up to date. Any clues of what is going on?

Thanks a lot for replying, but what exactly does the istat widget program do?
Also, the fan noise seems like a normal noise every time I launch a program, but it's getting to the point where I am frustrated(annoyed) of the fan noise. I would've thought that upgrading to a Mac book would cause less fan noise because of it's high processor. Sometimes I feel like I should go back to a Dell or HP because of this problem, but at the same time, I love my laptop. ;)

Iphone 6 and ipad mini not charging after update to iOS 8.02

after updating iPhone 6 and iPad mini to iOS 8.02 neither of them will charge on my Bose Soundock Portable using a genuine Apple 30 pin to Lightning adapter however, my 5S running 8.0 still charges

Upgraded to 8.1 still not charging with official adapter however the one I bought from poundland works fine
the official adapter has been exchanged for a new one also

My ipad 3 is not charging after update to ios 6

I Just updated my ipad 3 to ios 6 and now my battery will not charge anymore?!?

Just got off the phone with Apple. At least the wait time was short and the technician spoke clearly, but ultimately the issue is not resolved.
First thing we tried was doing a hard reboot, then reset the phone by going into settings -> general -> Reset -> Erase Content and Settings. This was supposed to bring the phone back to IOS 5.1.1 and would confirm if it was the iOS6 or a hardware issue. it still wouldn't charge and so we assumed it was hardware and setup an exchange. Keep in mind this phone is less than 6 months old.
After the fact, I realized that the restore did not actually remove iOS6 and so made a second call to tech support. After talking to a senior tech rep we discovered that once iOS6 is fully installed, there is no going back. Especially since iTunes won't recognize the phone being connected in addition to the not charging.
I'm curious to watch this thread and see if the number of people with this problem continues to escalate. I think 5 could still be coincidence with literally millions of people upgrading to iOS6 but if there is in fact a software issue causing it I imagine this number to increase exponentially over the next few days and weeks.

Fairly new battery not charging after not being used for a while

My computer (Elitebook 2530p) has not been used for a while, perhaps a month or two. The battery used to hold for over 3 hours of light use.
Now, the battery won't charge with the message "0% available (plugged in, not charging)"
I can't find a battery refresh utility in the BIOS, or any way to interact with the battery. Is there something I'm missing? Should the battery just go dead after not being used for a while?
Update: fixed typo

I've run the HP battery check and got the code REOOW. Battery is dead, and I am out of warranty. I can't think of any possible reason why this should have happened.
What does this code (REOOW) mean?

Battery is not charging after buying new charger for Qosmio X300

Hello all
My problem started when the charger of my laptop toshiba qosmio x300-130 made a strange noise and stoped working . laptop stayed on and was working perfectly as the battery was full .
I cloused pc and opened again next day to check my mails and then cloused it again .
the charger was off so i ordered one new charger from the company that support toshiba laptops in greece .
After 5 days i received the new charger from theyr offices . run home and pluged it but something was wrong . the battery isnt charging ! windows giving me message that battery exists but not charging !
The battery light of the computer lights up when i put the power on but after few seconds start blink and then it go off .
Also when i operate pc with battery on it it start making the noice that battery is low and then it turns off even that it is on power with the charger .
I went back to the company and they tald me that the charger is fine and that the battery just died couse it was her time to die !!! any one can help me ?

> I went back to the company and they tald me that the charger is fine and that the battery just died couse it was her time to die !!!
Well, can you use the notebook without the battery but only in connection with the AC adaptor?
If yes, then the AC adaptor is OK and fully compatible.
The Ac Adaptor should support the 19V and 9,5A
The Ampere (A) value could be a little bit different. This is no matter but the Volt (V) value has to be the same 19V
In your case the battery could be faulty or there is some problem with power supply electronic on the motherboard.
But I think the battery should be checked firstly

Battery does not charge after rescue & recovery

Hi,
Yesterday I set up my computer fresh from the preload on the harddrive due to slowness, instabilities, inability to use VPN etc. After the reinstallation of OS and securiy updates, my battery does not charge anymore. The battery indicator on the front panel keeps blinking, and the Lenovo message center reports that irrepairable damage has been done to the battery and that it must be replaced.
My battery is not among the recalls by Lenovo.
Any idea if there's any option but buying a new battery? It just does not seem right that the battery is unusable after new OS setup.
Cheers, Thorbjorn
