My Ipad is not charging when I connect it to my laptop or desktop. What should I do? Thanks for your advices!

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.

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 isnt charging when em connecting it with my laptop any one knows why ?

The iPad pulls 10 Watts of power in order to charge the battery. The USB port on a laptop only puts out 2.5 watts (I may be off on this slightly but I know it is way less then 10) So yes you do need to use the 10 watt wall charger that comes with the iPad to charge it. You can use the 5 watt charger from an iPhone but the iPad will not get to 100% charge and it will really overheat the iPhone wall charger. Only do this in an emergency and keep a close eye on the charger as it will get REALLY REALLY HOT. I only do this when I don't have my iPad wall charger with me and only for about 15 minutes at a time. Then I let the charger cool down for about 15 minutes before I plug it back in.
There is talk that future laptops will have usb ports that can push 100 watts but that is a way down the road I am sure.

My MacBook Pro tells me it's not charging when I connect the charger. Right now it's reading it, but other times it does not. What do I do?

Initiating a charge cycle is a costly and disruptive operation. It is only started when the benefit to battery life exceeds the cost to battery life of a charge operation. That is usually when the battery falls below 90 percent charged.

Read the KB article. Make sure you are using the 10W adapter that came with the iPad or a High-Power USB 2.0 port.

"Content Editing" is not available when I go to the Tools sidebar--how can I access these features?

"Content Editing" is not available when I go to the Tools sidebar--how can I access these features? I'm using Acrobat X 10.1.7. Thanks.

The headings under Tools are: "Pages", "Content", "Forms", "Recognize Text", "Protection", and "Sign & Certify". There's also a little icon in the upper right that lets me access some other headings under the Tools menu; those are: "Document Processing", "JavaScript", "Accessibility", and "Analyze".
I did think about the idea that maybe the Content Editing was a new feature of Acrobat XI, but I found some resources online (http://www.wikihow.com/Edit-Text-in-Adobe-Acrobat) that seem to indicate this was a feature on much earlier version (the link references Acrobat 8 at the bottom).
Really confused...
Thanks for your thoughts

I just downloaded the new software to my iPad but now it won't connect to the Internet. How can I fix this?

Have you tried to reboot your router? Unplug it, count to 30, plug it back in and let it reboot. Also you may want to go into your settings on your iPad and 'reset network settings'.
In case the update messed something up, letting the devices reboot sometimes helps.

TS3274 ipad will not charge when USB cord connected to PC or socket.

When i plug the USB cord to either electrical socket or computer. ipad will not charge. Says NOT CHARGING. Please HELP.

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.

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.

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.
