Is this lightning charger MFI/Apple certified?

http://t.staples.com/Staples-Rapid-Wall-Charger-with-Lightning-Connector-for-iPh one-5-5S-6-6-Plus/product_141343 I have seen a lot of problems with third party chargers, and while I don't think I have had any problems I want to ask if this is a certified apple charger. I don't know how to really tell, I looked at the tip and it looks identical to my regular ipad charger, but I can't be so sure aftre reading these articles about people's phones going dead.

To add to what Chris said, It isn't guarenteed that it will or won't damage your device.
If you are dead set on not buying a new charger, you can always check and make sure that the charger doesn't exceed 5 Watts. If it does you will damage your device.
For the record, I do reccomned just getting a new charger if you are unsure.

Genuine Apple lightning charger not working with my iPhone 5S. a notification comes up that's says 'this cable is not a genuine Apple product and may not work reliably' and although the charging symbol comes up, it does not charge

genuine Apple lightning charger not working with my iPhone 5S. a notification comes up that's says 'this cable is not a genuine Apple product and may not work reliably' and although the charging symbol comes up, it does not charge - went to Apple in Milton keynes to get a replacement charger this weekend that does not work as well!

Well, if this problems is so old I think it is strange that Apple hasen't fixed the bug long time ago, and certainly after the release of iOS 8.1.
Well, thank you very much for your answer, Lawrence Finch. I think the best thing to do is to send the phone to repair, if there is no solution to fix this by my self. I will anyway call the Apple support tomorrow, but I don't think they will illuminate me...

Lightning charger not certified

my brand-new lightning charger will not charge my 5C iPhone it just says this accessory has not been certified And now my phone is dead and it will not charge

Is your brand new charger an Apple charger or an Apple Certified charger?
If it is, try cleaning out the contact point on your device with a clean, soft toothbrush.
If it is not, then you need to get an Apple or Apple Certified charger.
Cheers,

My apple lightning charger is not working after the ios 8.2 update.

Since the update, my brand new iPhone 6 won't work with apple lightning charger cables. Anyone else having this issue?

Apple certified lightning cable?

I am looking for a non-apple but apple certified lightning cable. Can I find a list of certified cables online? Also came across cables made by Belkin, iComsta, and Miracase sold here (so I don't have to order online), but I am wondering if the cables work fine?

There's a problem buying Apple-certified and even "genuine" Apple products from less than honest dealers. A device can say it is Apple compatible, or even say it is Made by Apple, and still be counterfeit. And many of these are actively dangerous, to both you and to your phone. For example, take a look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wi-b9k-0KfE.
You don't have to watch the whole thing if you don't want to; just the first few seconds demonstrate the problem. SPOILER ALERT: BOTH of the devices pictured are counterfeit, not just the obvious counterfeit on the right. The one that looks like and says it is Apple (on the left) is a fake also.

HT1476 My apple lightning charger isnt charging my iphone 5

My phone is having a very hard time charging with the charger inserted. It is a standard issue lightning charger and the power goes in and out. Not sure what to do because my phone is dead and it won't charge now.

Lightning Cable and iPhone are both covered by the 1 year Warranty. Make Genius reservation and take both to Apple Store so the issue can be resolved.

Will Apple replace my lightning charger? it stopped working !

this is the 3 charger I've been through with this lightning crap :(

The included accessories are covered by the same limited warranty as the phone. So you have 1 year if you didn't purchase an AppleCare support agreement. You should be able to make an appointment at the genius bar, and take the charger in for replacement. Or, you can contact AppleCare support at 800-694-7466, and arrange for a replacement. They will (if you still have warranty) send you a replacement, and the packaging to return the defective charger. They "may" request a credit card hold for the cost of the cable they are shipping which will be returned when they receive the defective cable.

Is this power supply (A1185 10.8 V, 55Wh) compatible with New White 60W 16.5V 3.65A Laptop AC Adapter Supply Magsafe Power Charger For Apple Macbook pro A1184 A1185

Is this power supply (A1185 10.8 V, 55Wh) compatible with New White 60W 16.5V 3.65A Laptop AC Adapter Supply Magsafe Power Charger For Apple Macbook pro A1184 A1185

All of the A1181 polycarbonate MacBooks use the A1184 60W MagSafe power supply/charger and the A1185 battery. These are the Apple part numbers. Other manufacturers make equivalent replacement products, but the quality may not be acceptable.

TS1424 Has anyone else been falsely charged by apple on their iTunes account. Because I have. I'd like to know how often this happens so I can take action.

Has anyone else been falsely charged by apple on their iTunes account? Because I have

If these charges are being made to a credit or debit card, the most immediate thing you need to do is to call your credit card company or bank and report the unauthorized charges. That company can contact Apple if they need additional information.
Next, log into your iTunes Store account and see if the purchases are reflected in the Purchase History. If they are, immediately change the password to your iTunes Store account, making sure it's not something easily guessed or looked up. Then go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
If the charges are not reflected in the Purchase History, then it's most likely a fraudulent charge to your credit card directly rather than an unauthorized purchase through your iTunes Store account and it will be up to your bank to handle.
Regards.

Lightning charger cable issue

I Have an iPhone 5, my daughter has an iPhone 5c & an iPad mini. As you are aware they all use the lightning charger.
I've had to replace my cable for my iPhone 5 as it seemed to have the same issue as the majority of other people have with this cable. Now Im having to replace the cable for my daughters iPad mini, which is now costing me another £15, which I consider to be unfair. When there is clearly an issue with the cables and it's something that is needed, so I'm being forced to pay for something that is clearly not built to last.
Do you consider this to be right?

I've got an iPad 3 and never had to replace one. I have an iPhone 5 and 7th Generation iPod Nano, with spare cables and never had to replace any of them either. Apple will replace your cable under your 1 year warranty as long as it is not accidental damage.

I thought the lightning charger would charge quicker and not take 8 hours to reach 100% battery from dead?

Is the lightning charger supposed to charge quicker?

What older chargers? The chargers are them same they have always been. The only difference is the interface. Its a bit smaller. But the chargers produce the same amount of power.
5watts for the smaller iPhone and iPad Mini chargers, and 12watts for the larger iPad charger.
With that said 8 hours is bit too much. Unless it was completely discharged it should be around the 3 to 4 hour mark to go from 2 or 5% to 100%. It takes longer if its completely discharged.
If it continues to take this long, the best bet is to take it to an Apple store for evaluation. There may be a problem with the battery. If there is they should exchange it for free.

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.

Hi - you don't have to go the Apple store, you can start by going online at the following link - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

IPhone Lightning charger replacement

I recently bought an original apple 6.6' lightning charger cable from bestbuy and the end ripped and it is not working anymore. Is this product covered under my one year warranty? Also do I have to provide a recipt to have it replaced?

The lightning cable does have a warranty. You may have to provide a receipt to show when you purchased it, since it was not from an Apple store. Then make an appointment at the Genius Bar to see about the warranty replacement.

Hello warhogs17,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like the iPhone will not turn on past the Apple logo. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

My iphone 4s is over 2 years old and I need to replace the battery. How much will this cost at an Apple store?

I have an iphone 4s that is over 2 years old. The phone's battery is no longer able to hold a charge for an acceptable length of time. Assuming I need to replace the battery, how much will this cost at an Apple store?

Basically, I'm new to Apple, despite using them before, but I've never actually owned my own.
Since buying this phone off a colleague at work, I seem to be having problems with it. First, I noticed how rubbish the battery life is, then my charger almost went up in flames and thirdly my camera lense is scratched beyond belief.
I know the phone isn't within warranty, although I was lead to believe it was before and during buying it, so basically I'm extremely disappointed with the general make up of iPhone's considering they cost such a **** of a lot of money, you'd think they'd be built to last.
Back to my main point, how much would it cost for a new battery? Or a new camera lense if anyone can help me with that? (I know that the back of the phone was refurbished just before my buying it, so literally just the camera lense)
Thanks!
So basically it sounds like you bought an abused used iPhone and somehow that makes the phone subpar because dispite the abuse it should still last forever and look like new? Batteries don't last forever, even under ideal conditions, so your expectatoins are unrealistic. Take it in and have an estimate done.
