My iPad 2 wont charge when its connected to my computer

Hi,
My iPad 2 wont charge when its plugged i to my comp(Windows 7 Laptop) it only charges with the wall socket.
Why?
Thanks!

The current provided by most USB ports on computers is not sufficient to charge the iPad. It may charge but the not charging icon will show, and the charge rate will be quite slow.

TS3274 My iPad wont charge when I connect it to power

My iPad wont charge when I connect it to power. I have restarted it but the problem seems to be that it doesn't recongise the actual charger. Any ideas?

First ensure you are using a 10 watt/2 amp charger if you are not using the one included with the iPad. Then I would try a new sync cable. You can then test the charger by connecting another USB based device such as an iPod or iPhone to it to see if it charges. If the iPad is completely dead it may require some charge time before it will become responsive. If the sync cable and charger work fine with other devices you iPad is probably defective and requires repair.

Hi When you change your iPad, even if its off it will, turn on when you connect, to charger Check lightining port for any bits. Do a Reboot press &hold power button & menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo This may help. Cheers Brian

My Ipad 4 wont charge on its original 12W wall charger

My Ipad 4 wont charge on its original 12W wall charger but when i charge it to an ASUS 7watts charger it runs and goes 100%. Thus Its cable is good.
Please advise what would be the next move to address this issue. I dont want to use other brand of charger just to use and appreciate the new 12W adapter.
Current OS: IOS 8.1.2

So when you use the Apple charger it doesn't work but when you use the Asus one it does?
Suggests to me that the charger is bad.
If your charger is less than a year old, make an appointment at your local apple store and take it in. It should be covered by the warranty against manufacturer's defects. If it's out of warranty, you can buy replacement chargers at any major retailer. (I got one for my iPad at Walmart)
Just make sure to get an Apple one, not a knock off.

The USB port on your computer does not provide enough power oto charge your iPad. This is normal. Charge it by plugging into a wall outlet.

My iPad 2 charges when connected to my MacBook Pro.

The quickest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W 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. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode. 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.

Ipad does not charge on being connected to a computer or itunes. please help

On connecting to the computer, ipad is not charging. it syncs with itunes and gets updated but just wont charge on being connected to a computer ( I am using a windows Pc). Please help. However i have an iphone that charges perfectly with the same comp and the same itunes.
any suggestions are welcome

The iPad requires more power than the iPhone to charge it (it's wall charger is 10W as opposed to the iPhone's 5W), and a lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad

My iPad cannot be charged when I connected with my laptop. What can I do?

When I connect my iPad to laptop do not start to charge.
Why this issue?
I appreciate your help.

Hi. Did your ipad come with a power adaptor with a USB port in it?
What is your native language? I can try answering it in that language if it's easier for you.
Basically, your computer's USB ports are not powerful enough to charge the ipad, except very slowly when the ipad is asleep.
So to charge it quickly, use the USB ipad adaptor.
Just let me know if you need explanations in another language, and I will create a hyperlink for you to the appropriate support article.

Why does I'm IPad say fully charged when its not its 92% should I get it looked at by a professional ?

My IPad is at 92% and I plug it in and it says fully charged but its not. Should I get it looked at ?

The battery meter is really just an estimate
However, you can calibrate it
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

Hey lucy195,
I understand that your MacBook Pro is not charging properly. According to the following article, this symptom may indicate that an SMC reset may be necessary:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
After performing normal troubleshooting, these symptoms may indicate that an SMC reset may be necessary:
Power
The computer doesn't respond to the power button when pressed.
A portable Mac doesn't appear to respond properly when you close or open the lid.
The computer sleeps or shuts down unexpectedly.
The battery does not appear to be charging properly.
The MagSafe power adaptor LED doesn't appear to indicate the correct activity.
See the above article for steps on resetting the SMC, and what to do prior to the reset.
You may also find this as a good opportunity to reset the NVRAM:

I have a 2nd gen ipad. Since the latest ios update my ipad will not charge when hooked up to my computer running windows 7 and even though it shows that it syncs in Itunes, it will not download any apps. It just seems to skip that part.

I went to the apple store and they hooked up my ipad to a mac and it showed that it was charging and that apps would download. My ipones, touches, and ipods are not having any problems, just this ipad. It seems to be since I updated to the new ios. You can't even do a restore on it because it doesn't recognize it. It shows up top that it's doing that but nothing happens on the ipad. The computer seems to recognize the ipad, itunes recognizes it. It acts like it is communicating with it but it doesn't download anything and won't charge when it's hooked up to the USB port. THe Apple store says there is nothing wrong with this ipad which is about 6 mths old. So what now?

Most USB port do not supply enough current to charge the iPad.

Brand new iPad Mini Retina won't charge when its connected to my PC

I just opened up my brand new iPad Mini Retina and attempted to plug it into my PC and set it up. The iPad quickly recognizes my PC, briefly displays the charge symbol then immediately displays "not charging." I have attempted to plug the iPad into the wall, and it charges just fine. All the cables I'm using are straight out of the box which I bought right from the Apple Store so I know its not any of those. My laptop is fully charged and also plugged into the wall, so I know its not my computer. I also double checked everything by plugging my iPhone 5 into my computer (with the new iPad lightening cable) and it charges/syncs just fine. Im stumped, please help me fix my brand new iPad Mini Retina.

I know you said PC, for for others that have an iMac with USB 3 ports, they can put out extra power to charge an iPad. (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4049?viewlocale=en_US)

Ipad mini wont charge when on

I won this iPad mini at school and it was brand new however the charger that came with it aloud me to charge while using it at the same time although after a while the charger wasn't abled to charge while using it so I bought another one which worked fine for a few weeks then after that broken no other charger that I bought would allow me to charge it while using it only asleep and I've bought at least 8 cords and 3 different wall ports but if I plug the charger in while its asleep it turns it on so I know the charger is working so it could be my ipad so what do I do? I only plug it into the wall never computer but I am able to plug it to my computer and put new music on it so that works too only I cant charge it while using it because the battery drains

Are you charging it from a wall charger or from USB attached to a computer? Apple cable and/or charger? There have been some reports of iOS7 causing issues with some, uh, "questionably spec'd" 3rd party charging accessories.

My i pad is not charging when i connect to the computer

how can i use whatsapp to my i pad???????

Your iPad is not designed to charge using a USB port on a computer. It will trickle charge, but that's about it. To charge an iPad use the 10w or with iPad Air 12w wall charger that came with your iPad.
