My iPad battery is not charging why ?

In the last 3 weeks my MBP 2009 battery stopped charging ,then a day after my MB whitewash battery also stopped charging even though health is normal cell count 99 and now iPad 2 Battery stopped charging .
The only explanation is Apple has sent a bug that turn off charging to get me to buy new products , however I refused to yield to this kind of trickery.
Like most business these days they in it for milking as much as possible
and make products that are difficult to repair and just throw them and buy a new one society so what are we going to do with all these broken things and then materials become more expensive it is madness .

I called them Apple and they said many Japanese were reporting that the cold weather was preventing charging , i warmed thre roomand so managed to charge the iPad and the MBP that stated that Battery needs servicing,the system profiler now states that it is in good condition !
And my MB white that had a dead battery ( putting that between my legs and maybe revive it ) ,and i put in a Black MB battery which has also charged .
How eveer the news that older computers runnimg Mavs reported battery issues this may cause people to buy a new battery like I did during the earthquake and then was given a free batteryand took the old one in.
I have took apart old iBooks and some Batteries inside the pack have a charge, I tried to get the good ones from a couple of packs and make one good one but did not charge.

You may need to recalibrate the battery. See link below.
Are you using the wall charger?
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W 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%.

Battery does not charge,why ?

the battery does not charge any longer...why ?

Your battery may be completely dead — but even a dead battery will usually accept a tiny charge, even if it only powers the computer for a minute or two afterward.
Your AC adapter may have failed. If you have access to another adapter, test with that and see whether it charges the battery. If it does, try all the steps in this article to see whether your own adapter will revive:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1713
The charging system inside your MBP may have failed. If you have no luck with the above, take your machine to an Apple Store Genius Bar for testing:

My Ipad battery does not charge

Hi everyone,
Hope some of you can help me out. My IPad battery gone flat and it does not charge. I tried different sockets, different chargers, tried to plug in to pc and charge it but to no avail. Could be that it needs new battery? I this Ipad for 2 years now.

May need a new battery.
Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
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.)

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).

I just get the new iPad air and when connecting it to my laptop, why the battery is not charging?

just get the new iPad air and when connecting it to my laptop, why the battery is not charging?

A lot of computers don't 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.

Any ideas on how to fix ipad after the new iOS 7 update? My battery will not charge, my ipad is hot to the touch, the iTunes Store won't open, and my messages on Facebook aren't showing up when I chat and pintrest won't pin to my boards.

If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

My iPad air will not charge connected to my monitor or my computer. Why?

My iPad air will not charge connected to my monitor or my computer. Why?

Short answer: Computer USB ports don't deliver as much power as the power adapter that comes with the iPad.
Details:
Full size iPads come with either a 10W or 12W power adapter. The mini comes with a 5W power adapter.
See iPhone, iPad, iPod: Using iPad Power Adapters
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4327
USB ports on computers deliver 2.5W (USB 2, 500mA x 5v) or 4.5W (USB 3, 900mA x 5v).
Newer Macs with high power ports can deliver 5.5W (1100mA x 5v).
See Apple Computers and Displays: Powering peripherals through USB
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4049
If you connect your (full size) iPad to a computer USB port, it may charge slowly, but since it's getting less than half the normal charging power, it may say "not charging". It may charge slowly or it may not depending on use (screen brightness, processor load, etc.). If you really want to charge it from the computer, put the iPad to sleep.
The best charging solution is to use the Power Adapter that came with the iPad.

My battery is not charging. this is first time i have tried. any idea WHY...

my battery is not charging on my new ipad 2
it has gone from 11 percent to 10 percent.

are you using the cable and plug that came with the iPad?
are you plugging directly into an electrical outlet and not into a computer USB port?
if the answer to both of those is yes, then make an appointment with a genius at an Apple Store and take it in, you may have a defective cable or plug or iPad

My brand new Ipad 2 is not charging the battery with py PC thru USB. Is that normal? When I plug it directly into the wall, it works... Thanks! Sam

It talks extensively about charging in the user guide, and how USB ports on PCs and older Macs may not provide sufficient power to charge the iPad. The user guide is available for free from the iBook store (accessed directly via the iPad iBooks app).
My iPad charges fine when plugged in to the back of my iMac, but I would always prefer to use the mains adaptor to save the strain on my USB circuits (which can wear out if used heavily to power external devices).

The iPad Mini does not charge using a laptop

My brand new iPad Mini does not charge using my macbook pro, but it does when is connected to de ac power wall adapter !!!

That is the way is is supposed to work. Your MBP does not supply enough power to charge the battery efficiently. It may be charging, but at a trickle rate and it will show as not charging. That is why a power adapter is included with the iPad. Use it.
Read more about charging the battery here.

My iPad no longer recognizes my Zagg keyboard. Turned it off and on several times. One suggestion in manual is a dead battery. Where is a battery on a Zagg case? The iPad battery is fully charged.

My iPad 4 no longer recognizes my Zagg keyboard. Turned it off and on several times. One suggestion in manual is a dead battery. Where is a battery on a Zagg case? The iPad battery is fully charged and Bluetooth is on and the Zaggkeys PROfolio is listed but says NOT CONNECTED. What else should I try?

Well, you shoud tap the line where it says not connected, and it should prompt you to enter something. Regarding Zagg products, http://www.zagg.com/keyboard-cases/index.php?gclid=CIPgv7O_oL0CFQ8OOgodvnoA1w&ef _id=Uo5AsQAABFW6AX3n:20140320063435:s

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.

Battery does not charge all the way . How do I fix this?

My battery will not charge overnight. I've had it to the Apple Store and they worked on it for a couple of hours, backing up data and then resetting the iPad. This seemed to help for a couple of days, but then it started doing the same thing. It's still under the extended warranty, but when I call in, tech support tells me that they can see that the battery is fine. How do I fix this?

Hello karen1944,
I think in this situation based off the previous troubleshooting that we need to start isolating the issue to either hardware or software. What I recommend doing is restoring the iPad as a new device, and NOT restoring your backed up data to it for a while. This article named iOS: How to back up your data and set up as a new device found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 shows how to do that. Start at step 2, and make a current backup of your device to iTunes.
2. Back up
Back up your device before you erase it. Review the steps below, depending on your backup method, to ensure that you have a recent backup in case you decide to restore your device from a backup
iTunes
iTunes backs up your device automatically when you sync. If you have previous backups of your device in iTunes when you select Set Up As New, a sync occurs. This sync creates a new backup indicating the time the device was backed up.
To back up your device:
In iTunes, check Preferences > Devices to check the date and time of your latest backup.
If you do not have a recent backup, create one by right-clicking the device in the source list and choosing Back Up.
For more information on backing up your device, see iOS: How to back up. If you wish to copy your backup to another folder, disk, or location for safekeeping, see this article in the section titled "Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer." For more information about what iTunes backs up, see this article.
That way you can monitor the device and see if the issue re appears or not. If it does not re appear within a few days, then you should restore your data from the iTunes backup using that same article, at the bottom there is a section about restoring from an iTunes backup:
To restore your device using a previous backup
iTunes
To restore your device using a previous backup, connect your device to iTunes. When your device appears in the source list, right-click your device and click "Restore from backup…". iTunes will ask you to choose the desired backup from the list provided.
All the best,
Sterling
