Is there a female-to-female lightning cable joiner?

As was stated above, is there a female-to-female lightning cable joiner where you can plug in two lightning cables and essentially make one extended cable?
Thanks,
D.A.

Both of you are correct about there generally being a USB end, I am simply trying to see if one exists. This also begs the question is there is a male to male lightning cable? I know that there are male to female cables and dock extenders. The application for all of this would be in instances such as the lightning/hdmi converter - unless you have a very long HDMI cable you are tied within a few inches of the TV or other device unless you can extend your lightening cable.
Thank you for the replies!

  • Female lightning cable to USB

    Hey everyone,
    I'm installing a Pioneer radio and I have to use the VGA to Lightning connector, that leaves me with a 2' long lightning cable.
    I could run an extension cable, then I'd just always have that cable hanging there, I wanted to see if I could find a female lightning to normal USB, so I can then just put a pannel mount USB on my dash, but I can't find it.

    a vga extension cord would by all means be less expensive

  • Is there a Lightning to Lightning cable ?

    I have a charger with a lightning connection, but the phone case that my spouse uses prevents setting the iPhone5 on top of it.  I need a cable with a female lightning jack to a male lightning plug (and the male plug can't be any larger than the normal charger plug).  Searches in Apple, Amazon, Google, etc, have not yielded any direct Lightning to Lightning cable.  Am I looking for the correct cable / using the correct terminology (I saw something called thunderbolt with a female side, but couldn't tell if it pairs up with lightning) ?

    i did the google on your behalf

  • Is there a lightning cable for my old iPad2?

    My iPad 2 is very slow charging. Is there a faster cable available for it, either Apple or maybe Belkin? Thanks!

    There is no Lightning cable because an iPad 2 does not have a Lightning port.   The newer iPads have the smaller port which is called the Lightning port, however the Cable has no impact on charging speed. an iPad 2 will charge at the same rate generally using a 30 pin cable as an iPad air using a Lightning cable.
    If your iPad is charging very slowly, try a different charger, or wall plug.

  • Extending the USB–Lightning cable

    I have a lovely new iPad mini Retina. The USB-Lightning cable that came with it is very short. I'd like to extend it. I assume the simplest (and probably cheapest) way to do this would be to get a USB extension cable, one with a female plug one end and a male the other. Correct? If so, do I need USB2 or USB3? I'm guessing 2, but not sure.

    Just my opinion, but the easiest and least expensive way to extend your cable .....use a common household extension cord. That's what I use. Plug the cable from the iPhone/iPod/iPad into the power adapter and plug the power adapter into an extension cord. Buy a white cord and you will have a nice color match

  • My original Apple charger and lightning cable doesn't charge my iphone 5 and ipad 3rd generation.

    Both my devices are low in batt and i need to to use it tomorrow for work. Who would compensate my losses???
    Pardon me i'm not trying to create a scene here. When i first gotten my iphone 5 (new and sealed) and before upgrading to ios 7, everything works fine. After i upgraded to ios 7, the phone main camera lost its focus after a few days usage. Fortunately the phone is under warranty and was replaced at an authorised lab BUT unfortunately i lost a fair deal of data (sms, whatsapp chat history) along the way, although most of the things have been backed up. Since there is no turning back, there is nothing i could do but to face it. And that's not all...
    After a good usage of just 3 weeks, with the exact same charger and cable (both original from that came with the phone), it suddenly failed to charge. I have tried plugging it in and out and still to no avail. By the way i have not mention, the ORIGINAL lightning cable sleeve gave way after just a few weeks use. And do mind that it was HOME USE. Havent been brought out to use roughly.
    And guess what, I JUST TRIED PLUGGED THE ORIGINAL LIGHTNING CABLE TO A SAMSUNG CHARGER AND IT WORKED.
    I hereby swear to God that every word i said here is nothing but the truth. Not spamming. It has already caused me countless inconvenience but still i will bring the charger and the phone to the authorised lab once again to have it checked, and looking forward to get an explanation.     

    Both charger and cable are covered under warranty as well.  Get them replaced.
    Who would compensate my losses???
    Nobody

  • HT201401 My Lightning cable doesn't work...Period!

    It has done this once before, and started working again, but now it is completely unresponsive when connected to AC power, USB plug-in, the lot. iPhone now at 0% battery, and I have no way of charging it. Is anyone having simliar issues? And is there a fix, as I won't be able to get to an apple store for a wee while, and the lightning cable is not really mass market yet!

    Unless you have one of those pad that claim to charge by laying a device on, you're out of luck until you get a new cable (assuming the cablie is at fault).  If you know anyone with a new IP5, you should plug the cable into it and see if it charges their phone.  If so, there is sometihing wrong with your phone.
    Re the Apple store, you can order a cable online for home shipment. Also, keep checking eBay.  I'm sure the Hong Kong guys are working 24/7 to build a supply of knockoff cables.

  • Original Lightning cable doesn't work

    Hi , first of all sorry for my bad english.
    I bought an original Lightning cable with the apple logo and all the stuff printed on the box, but when I tried on my phone it doesn't work. And a pop-up appear with the text: "the accessory may not be certified" or something like that. But this can not be possible because I bought it on a original apple store.
    So then I plugged it in to another iOS device and it works with this devices!, maybe someone is thinking: 'oh is dirt in the Lightning connector on the iphone'. But that was the first thing I checked and it is ok, no dirt, no humidity no nothing.
    The most bizarre of all is that a friend give me his original lightning cable (the one who came with his iPhone) and it works on my phone!
    I've tried with other original cables such as one from an iPad for example and it works too.
    So I went to the Apple Store where I bought the cable and they changed it for a new one, and surprise... it doesn't work. So what I can do? Looks like I'm not able to use other lightning cable who has not came with the original iDevice. I suspect is something with the iOS system, but I have resetted, and updated to iOS 8.2 and nothing. I've tried many things, and I don't know what else I can do. I'm really disappointed of apple this time, also I'm surprise with the worldwide problem of the quikly battery draining on iOS8, and apple fall on deaf ears with this
    Does anyone has an idea what could be the reason for this annoying problem?

  • Lightning cable won't stay in iphone

    When I connect the lightning cable to the phone it will charge and then I have to carefully set it down and leave it untouched. If I receive a phone call or message the phone will vibrate and the cord comes out and stops charging. It also comes out if I pick up the phone or try to use it while it's charging. Is there a way to repair the 'teeth' that hold the cable?

    Genuine apple cable. Even used brand new cable from friend's new phone. same issue with all cables.
    I suppose the warranty question would be an apple question. I'll make an appointment and try to go to the store unless there's a part that I can easily switch out.

  • Lightning cable not working from both sides (not reversible)

    Hi,
    2 days ago I started to notice something... I was about to charge my iphone with the cable but I noticed that it wanst charging... I checked the usb ports from my computer and 2 wall adapters and sometimes it did charge and some did not, but then I fliped the lightning cable it did, what I mean is that if I plug the charging cable in the "right side" it does charge and gets recognized by iTunes, if i plug it with the "wrong side" it doesnt.
    At this moment I dont know if the cable is the problem or the phone, because I only own one lightning cable. I`ll try to go to a apple store to check with another cables, but still i want to know if there is more people with this problem and if it has some kindo of solution.
    my phone is 1 month old btw...
    Saludos y disculpen mi ingles

    I have the same problem with my iPhone 5. It started last week when I found out that the phone is not charging when connected. So I take out the cable and found out that the pins on the connector cable was black and have a burnt smell. I leave the phone for several minutes and tried to connect it again. I found out that cable only work on one side.
    So I took some pictures and went to Apple online support to request for a new cable. I got a new cable and the problem still persists. Now I know that the problem is with the connector on the phone. I went to the Apple online support and request for a repair. I sent them the phone and they said that they put the repair on hold.
    I telephoned the support centre asking why they put the work on hold, and they told me that the repair is not covered because the problem might be caused by liquid damage. I was pretty sure that it wasn't liquid damage because I believe I take extra good care of the £529 phone. The operator asked me to ask my insurance company (which I don't have) in case they cover that accident. The operator also told me that the repair cost, £152+VAT is cheaper than usual £170++VAT. It was very disappointing.
    Pretty sure it wasn't liquid damage, I telephoned the support centre again, and this time the operator told me that it is because of accident and they don't cover it. She couldn't explain exactly what is the problem and connected me with a senior operator. The senior operator told me that the engineers think that it might be cause by liquid damage. Then I told her that I have pictures of the burnt cable. She let me send those pictures and they'll contact me again by tomorrow. So I still don't know what is the conditon of my claim.
    So as a conclusion... The engineers think that the damage might be caused by liquid damage, but the term 'might' does mean that it 'might not' caused by liquid damage too. I have read other discussions telling that they found out that their cable has some corrosion on the pins even though there have not been any contact with liquid.

    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4566785?start=0&tstart=0
    It looks like that I'm not the only one with the problem. I think the lightning connector itself is prone to corrosion. So I think that it is a design flaw, and Apple should cover the repair cost. Now I can only wait.

  • Why was the Apple Lightning Cable removed from the website?

    I check everyday for its availability so I can order one, and it always says "coming soon".  Today, it isn't even there.
    Does anyone know why it was removed, and when the HELL they are goign to get some!?

  • Anyone else been shocked by a lightning cable?

    I feel asleep this morning and apparently rolled onto my lightning cable. It was still plugged into the wall but not my phone. When I woke up I had this pain in my arm that felt like a bug bite. I soon realized there was a shape of a ligtning plug and cord in my arm. At the far end of the plug is what appears to be a burn along with a green mark. One of the pins on the cable has also been burned. Has anyone else gotten a little shock from one of these things? Picture attached.

    There have been a few questions about shocks from iPhone and cables - I would contact Apple at - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/ - and let them know about it

  • Why do lightning cables break so easily?

    To cut to the chase, my third lightning cable broke today. I plug it in and nothing happens. This has happened with all three the same way and it seems they just keep breaking faster and faster.
    And don't tell me it's my phone because it charges fine on my ihome.
    And don't tell me it's my fault because I'm fought with the cable or something.
    I take pristine care of my cables
    What I wanna know is if there's any more durable third party chargers out there?? Or a better way to prevent this from happening?
    Because these chumps at apple obviously either don't know what they're doing or they're trying to scam us with chargers like they do with adding loads of "other data" to our iPhones.
    Now let me go head over to my local apple store to shell out 30 dollars for another lightning cable that's gonna break in 3 weeks.

    I've had my iPhone 5 since launch day and I am still using my original cable.  I have purchased a couple extra cables so I can keep one at work, and one at my nightstand, and they are all just fine, even though they are all used almost every day.
    My wife got her iPhone 5 in November of 2012 (after she accidentally dropped her iPhone 4 in the toilet).  I have had to take about 5 or 6 cables back to Apple for replacement for her.  She tends to plug her cable into the phone, then rest the phone down on the cable causing it to make ahard bend with the weight of the phone resting right on the cable where it comes out of the phone connector.  Every one of her cables that has failed, had broken the fine wires inside right where she stress bends them.  The last time I took cables back to the Apple Store, the clerk there mentioned to me that under his interpretation of the rules, the cables are only covered under the 1 year limited warranty that comes with the iPhone, and are not included in the AppleCare+ extension.  It was no problem, because I had a proof of purchase for a cable that was less than a year old, so they used its one year warranty to replace that bad cable.
    I would say that the cables are fine, as long as you don't heavily stress them right there at that connection, or probably the other end of the cable as well.  As a way around this for her in her car, I bought a decent cable with a micro-USB connector on one end, then I bought her the micro-USB to Lightning adapter, and she uses that in her car now.  That one has lasted her about 8 or 9 months and is still working...

  • My ipad mini is not charging on one side of lightning cable

    my ipad mini is not charging on one side of lightning cable, but it charging on both side`s when it connected to pc,The cable is charge on other devices on both side`s

    If your cable and iPad are less than a year old, make an appointment at your local apple store and take them in. If they find that there are manufacturer's defects they can be covered under the warranty.

  • My two month old iphone lightning cable is corroded and not working. Any solutions to this apparently common problem on the horizon?

    My two month old iPhone lightning cable is suddenly corroded and not working. Any solutions to this apparently common problem on the horizon?

    You bought a used iPhone. Amazon is not an authorized supplier of iPhones, nor are any of the 3rd parties that sell iPhones there.
    You can make an appointment at the genius bar and have it looked at.
    If you are very very lucky, it is still under warranty and it wasn't opened or otherwise tampered with before you bought it. In which case, Apple will replace it under warranty.
    If it's not under warranty, they will replace it for $199.
    If it has been opened or tampered with, they won't touch it.
