MY IPAD MINI IS NOT DETECTING GENUINE APPLE LIGHTNING CABLES

Can someone help me with my ipad mini not detecting any genuine lightning cables?
if I charge using the genuine cable, no sign would appear that the ipad has detected a charger. I tested it on 3 lightning cables that worked on other ipads but not on mine. but if i use my after market cable(non-genuine) it will detect but will say "the cable or accessory is not certified and may not work... " I understand that apple is blocking uncertified cables. my ipad can only be charged if i turn it off.
IOS version: 7.1.2

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if it charges after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My iPhone 5 and iPad mini won't charge with the lightning cable. Worked fine for months until today.

My iPhone 5 will not charge using the lightning cable. It has worked fine for months then started beeping and now won't take a charge. Neither will my iPad Mini. Does anyone know know what the problem could be?

MY IPAD MINI WON'T CHARGE
I'm f*cking stressed about it. I don't want to tell my mom that my charger is not working because THIS ALSO DID HAPPENED TO ME LAST YEAR!
( I also did a research and found that people also encounter this problems other do by apple chargers for the 6th time! )

Like Putting a spring on the charger cable. and cleaning the lightning port
PLEASE HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Genuine Apple Lightning Cable not recognized...

I'm using an iPad mini, running iOS 7.0.6, and plugged directly into AC power with an Apple 2 meter charging cable, purchased @ the Apple Store. I am being driven crazy by the intermittent beeping of the iPad mini until it finally tells me the accessory is not supported. Fortunately, the charging continues, but all this beeping and booping and the failure of the iPad to recognize a legitimate accessory is nutso. I have cleaned the connector more than once, yet the problem continues. Sometimes if I turn the connector around it will stop, other times not.
As I never used any Apple device prior to the release of iOS 7, I can't comment on timing, but I have my suspicions that this is a software issue.

Yes, I should have mentioned that; the Apple 2m lightning cable is plugged into the Apple square charger that came with the iPad mini. That is plugged directly into AC power.
I updated iOS to 7.1 this week; the problem continues.

Plz help my ipad mini is just bringing the apple logo again and again and it is not working plz help

I have an IPad mini and I changed the Apple ID and the password almost one year ago and, for a while, a message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops- up constantly. My ICloud account is registered with an old email address and password. I do not remember the password to my ICloud account, and ID address that my ICloud account is registered under is an old email adress which is deleted right now (the old mail account is deleted). I don’t have a rescue email adress and I don’t know the answers to the security questions, so I have no way of changing the ICloud password. A message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops up constantly, but I always just hit cancel. However, now I am unable to access Find My IPad. How do I get my ICloud account changed and registered to be under my current Apple ID (email) and password? It is possible to set the device as New Ipad?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

My iPad mini would not connect in order to download an update, I decided to go to original settings, the screen is frozen showing the apple logo and nothing else, it will not respond.

My new iPad mini would not download an update bnor allow access to app store downloads etc, I decided to revert to original factory settings, the screen is now frozen, showing only the Apple logo in white on a black background, it is now frozen, what can I do?

Try a Reset...

I want my new iPad mini to use my new Apple ID, not the old one that pops up without seemingly giving me the choice to update the Apple ID user name; as a result I haven't been able to update my APPS for some time. I changed my apple ID when I got a new e mail address a few months ago .

Any apps you have installed from the old AppleID will always be tied to that AppleID. You have no choice but to enter the password for the old AppleID if you want to update apps downloaded using that ID.
The only way to stop being asked for the password for the old AppleID is to remove all apps from the device that were downloaded using that old AppleID.
You'd then need to re-download (and re-purchase) any apps you want to keep using under the new AppleID.
Apps cannot be transferred between AppleIDs.

HT4623 my ipad mini does not turn on. How do I fix it? Or do I need to go to an Apple Store?

My iPad mini does not work. It does not turn on. Help!

Try this - 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.) No data/files will be erased.

My ipad mini does not find my Nokia bh-111 Bluetooth headset, yet all other devices do and pair without issue

I use my bh-111 with my windows phone, my laptop and my wife's android jellybean phone without issue but the ipad mini will not find it, any ideas?

OK great info!
I found 2 possible ethernet to USB adapters:
By "Plugable": USB 2.0 to ethernet LAN wired network adapter - seems this will work, but I'll contact Plugable.
2. Apple USB Ethernet Adapter
Easily connect your MacBook Air computer to an Ethernet network with the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter. Small and light, it connects to the USB 2.0 port of your MacBook Air and provides an RJ-45 connector that supports 10/100BASE-T performance. BUT NOT SURE IF THIS WILL WORK ON ANYTHING BUT a MacBook Air…
One person commented:
This little gem used to be the device of choice for adding a second Ethernet interface to a Mac Mini Server and I'd been using one that way for about a year. After doing a software update to 10.6.6 it stopped working. Forewarned is forearmed – it appears that Apple is finally enforcing the MacBook Air system requirement.
Thanks for any additional comments.
Best regards,

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

I have an iPhone 4 & recently got an iPad mini. I have one Apple ID for everything. I can access iTunes & my iCloud info in settings on my iPad but now my iCloud info & iTunes is frayed out on my iPhone & I can't open them!
