My ipad mini isn't charging for some reason what do i do?

My ipad mini isn't charging for some reason. What do I do?

Are you using the wall charger? Connecting to the USB port on your computer gets the Not Charging message.
Need more info about your problem.

My battery on my iPad mini isn't charging, the charging sign is on, but the battery just keeps going down.

My battery on my iPad mini isn't charging, the charging sign is on, but the battery just keeps going down.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
Since you did not say how long the battery lasts I am nut sure the battery is the problem.

IPad mini isn't charging via mains? Utter pisstake can someone help?

My ipad mini has been charging fine via mains now it is not charging at all? Somebody help! Considering I payed three hundred odd quid for this!

Could be the charger, the cable or possibly the iPad.
Plug the cable into your computer. It should say "not charging" (it really is charging, but very slowly). If it does, the cable is good. Does the charger feel warm?
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.)
And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) 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%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

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.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

My iPad Mini isn't charging. How do I fix it?

I powered my iPad Mini off and pluggged it into the wall socket. It turned on, said it was charging, but didn't increase beyond 53% battery life despite being plugged in for a day. I then plugged it into my computer, but it still didn't charge. I soft reset it, and it still didn't charge. I brought it into Apple, it started charging. I brought it home, still not charging. Anyone have any recommendations for fixing my charging problems?

Hola jroualde,
Have you tried with other USB cable and with another charger? And in another wall socket? Its rare that in Apple the iPad charges and in your home doesn't.

Can i use ipad mini adaptor for charging iphone 5s?

Just want to check before i use the ipad mini adaptor to charge my iphone 5s...does this harm the iphone in anyways?

Yes you can
Apple lists the 12w iPad Air powerpack as compatible with click wheel iPods ,if that gives you the confidence

My iPad mini won't charge at all. I got it for Chrisrmas and it is still in brand new condition and it was fine but now it won't charge at all! It used to charge in an exact position but now it has stopped altogether...Help!!

My iPad mini won't charge at all. I got it for Christmas off my dad and it is still in brand new condition. Until the other day it has been working fine but until yesterday or the day before my charger went all funny. In order to charge my iPad mini you had to put the charger in an exact place and if someone so much as touched it it would stop charging because it wasn't in its exact position. But today I tried to charge it again and I tried getting it in the same spot as yesterday but it is not working at all. I have only ever charged my iPad mini in the wall but I have seen posts about people charging it in the USB in an computer. So I thought I would also try that but that hasn't worked either and now my iPad mini won't charge in a plug or USB and I live really far away from an apple store and I can't get a new charger also because I live far away from the store. So what shall I do?

When and where was the iPad/charger purchased? It's covered by a 1-year warranty.
The problem may be the USB cable.
 Cheers, Tom

My iPad mini doesn't charge sometimes, and if it charges it only can charge to 92% then stops.

At most time, my iPad mini doesn't charge at all. I have searched the problem on Internet, somebody says it is about the temperature, but the weather of the place I live ain't that cold. Once it can charge, it can only charge to 92% everytime. Someone to help me solve it? iOS 6.0.1!

Thanks, I'm use to apple products displaying a electric plug ensuring that it switched to ac mode.

I just got an ipad mini for christmas. charged it fully. was using it fine, then went to turn it back on and nothing is happening. i plugged it in and it doesn't even make a sound like it's charging. the screen is completely black. why would this happen?

i got an ipad mini for christmas, charged fully. was using it..and it was fine.. went to turn it back on to use again and it's a blank screen. went to plug in and nothing seems to show it's charging or anything. why can this happen??

Try resetting it. Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds. Hopefully you will see the Apple logo.
If it's a brand new iPad Mini (with retina display), it is under warranty. You can always take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service Center for service.

My ipad mini gets 100 % charged but the plug in icon doesnt always comes out. Please help me. The icon is always the lightning bolt even though its 100 % charged already. Why?

PLease I need help. My ipad mini wont fully charge. It says 100 % charged but its still shows the lightning bolt

The plug icon will show as long as the device is connected to a power source. Yes, 100% = complete, at least where I was taught math. Your fears about destroying the battery are unfounded. You can leave the device plugged in even after it's fully charged. It will stop charging.
Best of luck.

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.

I purchased pages for my imac can i download this for i ipad mini free of charge?

I purchased pages for my Imac can i download this for my ipad mini free of charge?

Correct. To do it, your Mac must be running Mountain Lion and Pages '09 with the most recent version. To check the OS X version you have, open  > About this Mac, and check the version. If it's 10.8, you are running Mountain Lion. Then, you just have to open System Preferences > iCloud, and tick "Documents and Data".
If you aren't running Mountain Lion, you can still share documents between the iPad and the Mac, you can access to the documents created in the iPad in http://www.icloud.com, logging in with your Apple ID, and selecting iWork. Also, you can upload documents from the computer

My ipad mini is not charging on one side of lightning cable

my ipad mini is not charging on one side of lightning cable, but it charging on both side`s when it connected to pc,The cable is charge on other devices on both side`s

If your cable and iPad are less than a year old, make an appointment at your local apple store and take them in. If they find that there are manufacturer's defects they can be covered under the warranty.
