Anyone else having issues with third party changers saying "this accessory not supported". I get it every time I plug my phone. It only started after the iOS 7 update?
That's because part of iOS7 had code in it to look for and recognize unsigned cables.
In other words, Apple knew that people used non-signed ones and didn't care....until last month when they decided to care. People with iOS6 and lower should experience no issues (unless Apple patches those iOS versions) but folks with iOS7 will need to deal with it. -

I was eating breakfast one morning playing a game on my iPod and it slipped out of my hand and into my cereal bowl. So immediately I took off the case and put in a bag of rice for a day and a half to let it dry out. Then when it started working again (thankfully) a notification popped up saying charging is not supported with this accessory after I unplugged it from the wall. So I thought nothing of it and pressed dismiss. Now when ever I wake it up, instead of my wallpaper popping up in the lock screen that stupid notification does. How can I get rid of it? Also my home button doesn't work anymore so I have to use asisstive touch instead. How do I take a screen shot without the assisting touch menu in the way? Thank you.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

I'm taking it in to get it looked at but will they cover this? And is there a way to fix it before I take it in. I'm still under the 1 year warranty plan. My friend said that they might exchange it. It's a 64GB and I use it for a lot of things like my picture, music, contacts, and email. It's got scratches on the back but other wise its ok the screen isn't cracked or scratched.
I have a usb charger for it but when I plug it into the PC or my wall charger it won't charge. It just says "Charging is not supported with this device". It even says that sometimes when it's not charging. But it works on a dock station like my clock or radio.
Also my home buttom won't work unless I press down real hard. This scares me because I'm afraid I wil persss it too hard and break it even more.

My iPod Touch keeps displaying the message 'This accessory not supported by iPod touch.' When I've used it w/this device multiple times, it's happening more and more frequently now. Anyway to dismiss this message for good? Because the iPod still plays thru my radio and system.
That message is usually due to a bad cable.

Take it into an Apple store and have it checked out.

You shouldn't have bought any.
They are part of the 1 year standard warranty.
Take it into an Apple store for free replacement (if not user damaged). -
I got a replacement of this iPhone 4. Probably a month or so. I've been taken good care of this phone, but I keep getting this pop up saying "Charging is not supported with this accessory". I've blowed on this 30 pic connector, cleaned it and everything and there still haven't been a solution. I restored it and restore it to a backup. I have to disconnect my iPhone in order to get it to work. Any suggestions? Help?
No, it is a problem with YOUR phone, not all phones. My phone does not have this problem. You have dirt or moisture in the connector on the bottom of the phone, a bent pin, or a bad cable. Get a magnifying glass and look into the connector. Clean out the lint and fluff that is almost certainly there. A dry toothbrush is a good tool, or a wood toothpick. Inspect for bent pins. If you see a red dot in the connector opening it means that your phone has water damage.

This accessory not suitable with iphone
Everytime I unlock my iphone or simply check the time I am always getting this message about this accessory not suitable with iphone if you wish to continue click yes but you will not be able to make or receive calls.
Also it does not play music out of the speaker through the ipod function and also does not make a noise when i receive messages despite being on loud.
i have read through other forum posts and tried just about everything it says to do but am still at a loss.
someone please help or im going to get rid of it.Very aggrivating indeed. All those issues here as well. My Iphone is only a month old. I can't even hear when I am on YouTube there use to be a volume slider and it's completley gone. I am able to hear my phone ring but not txts. The unlock button doesn't sound and I'm sick of the prompt. " this accessory is not made for iPhone" " would you like to turn on airplane mode.
I've hit yes. I've hit no. I have dusted dock. I have removed sim tray. I have called apple who suggested reset. I reset. He also suggested that I plug my ear buds in several times Nd play around with it. NOTHING works. I am at lost what to do. I sure hope there's a good answer right around the corner. Please. If anyone finds out something let me know. Purty please with like whateever u want on top.
