New Iphone charge?

What is the best way to charge a new Iphone?

Please reread my post, I was talking about draining the battery ONE initial time!
"It is recommended to let it totally drain to the point of shutting off by itself, and then letting it do a full charge. Then, you can charge it as often as you like- you cannot "overcharge" this phone and in fact, want to make a point of NOT letting it drain fully each time before you charge."
An in terms of citing my source- again, if you read posts where people are complaining of poor battery life, Apple Geniuses and the support lines, at least according to the original posters, say they are told to let their battery do a full drain and charge.

  • Charging slow with new iphone charger?

    Is anyone else finding the new cute little charger supplied with the 3gs very slow at charging? I would say its only about the same as charging with the sync cable whereas the 3g charger was about twice as fast.

    This is actually starting to bug me now! I ran my iphone down to about 30% today and then plugged it into my pc to charge/sync...3 hours later and its only upto 88%!!. With the new plug/charger not being any faster I'm starting to think the 3gs itself is a very slow charger. Isn't anyone else noticing how much longer it takes to charge a 3gs over a 3g?

  • New iphone 5c battery stuck at 50%

    I let my new iPhone charge all night and re-started it several times but the battery is still stuck at 50%

    Perform a "hard reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
    Then test to see if it solved the problem.

  • HT4009 I bough pinball arcade in app purchases ( all pinball machines that were available  ).  Now that I have new iphone, Itunes charged me again to download them on new phone.  They then told me they could do nothing.  Help.  They are ********.

    I bought and downloaded pinball acade from itunes in the last year.  I bought all in app puchases possible ( all pinball machines). Downloading them to my itouch an ipad as necessary.  Sometimes they would crash and I would simply reload them.  I bought a new iphones this week and while putting this app on my
    new phone (with in app puchases) I noticed my balance on my Itunes account was going down faster than my gas tank.  They were charging me again  I contacted Apple and Itunes and they told me it was not there problem and I needed to contact Pinballarcade.com.  That is like buying a washing machine from Sears and after having problems, they tell me to contact Kenmore.  I have bought thousands in music and apps over the years.  I will start switching to other services in the future.  I also have an occupation that allows me to interact with the public.  Whenever the opportunity allows,  I will tell them of my experiences.
    I did try to contact pinballarcade.com, but the website is not working, and I am running out of patience.

    The Same thing happened to me! I lost about 15 Tables from all first 3 seasons and I contacted their shoddy support email, and got a response saying that I should do this that and the other thing and I followed their advice only to get the same result....All of those table are still only available to me if I purchase them!  I am so upset, I think I lost about $60.00 in purchases for which I have all my receipts for....Anyone know an answer?  No snarky replies please, what do you have to gain from that..I'm sure we've all been screwed by in-app purchases before and you know what a shock it is.  Thanks in Advance!

  • Brand New iPhone 4 Won't Charge!

    We received our new iphone 4 this morning and plugged it in using the wall charger. The Quick Start Guide said to "charge it Fully".
    I came back 4 hours later, and it's not charging! When I turn it on, I still see the battery indicator on RED and the red "lightening" bolt at the bottom.
    Using the white adapter and usb cord purchased with the phone.
    WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

    This happened to me this morning for my less than 1 month old iPhone 4. I plugged into the wall charger last nite, turned it on and battery still showed 10% battery left and the warning window saying less than 20% battery power left was on the screen. I restarted and plugged it back in and nothing. Then I moved the wall charger to another wall socket and plugged the phone back in and voila, charging started but I am without a usable phone all morning.

  • New iPhone no longer syncs with iTunes or charges via MacBook

    Hi,
    seen that there are quite a few varied posts concerning iPhones that aren't syncing but none that have the exact problem that I've currently got, which is:
    I have a week old iPhone 3GS, I have connected it to my mac a couple of times and it worked and charged fine via the usb cable, however it is now not doing anything when attached, if the handset is turned of it automatically turns on but doesn't show that it is charging or syncing.
    I have followed all of the trouble shooting advice via mac support but still no joy, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    I was hoping that my new toy was going to be a little more user friendly than this, I'm an experienced Mac user and am a little dismayed at problems so early into the honeymoon period with my shiny new iPhone.
    Thanks

    Lovely, working, charging and syncing again, I'm in your debt, thank you.
    Just out of interest, I have read that this can be caused by syncing certain podcasts but I've only put a couple of dozen tunes that I already had in my iTunes library onto the phone, any ideas as to why the issue may have happened?
    Thanks again.

  • How long do you need to charge a new iPhone 5 for before trying to turn it on?

    I received a new iphone 5 in the post today to replace the ne I had smashed the screen on.
    I was told that I would need to charge the phone and then insert my SIM and it would be good to go.
    The phone has been on charge since 14:00 and still wont turn on (tried when still on charge and off charge).
    Any ideas?
    I have held down the power button for 10+ seconds
    I have held the power and home button down together for 10+ seconds
    I have held the home button, plugged the phone into my Mac, Itunes then acknowledges that a IPhone is present and is up to date but the screen on my actual ipone remains black????

    It doesn't matter. You can use it right away. Charge it when you need to.

  • Where can I find a car charger for my new iPhone 5?

    Where can I find a car charger for my new iPhone 5?

    I use a power inverter which works great. You can get one that plugs into your car charger for about $30-$50 on Amazon. You just plug it into your car charger and plug the MBP power pack into that.

  • Howl long do i have to charge my new iphone 4s ?

    how long do i have to charge my new iphone 4s ?

    You can charge it up as much as you like. The battery in the iPhone does not have the "memory effect" that old batteries used to have. I usually charge mine untill the small whote battery with the lightning bold through it changes to just a small white battery. The green battery icon in the middle of the screen should show as completly full as well. Again if you don't have enough time to fully charge it, don't worry, it won't harm the battery.
    I have done this since the original iPhone and have never had a battery give short life or fail.
    Many people top off the battery several times a day.

  • HT1476 why wont my iphone charge from my new computer?

    My iphone 4s will not charge from my new computer any ideas?

    Fault with new computer's USB port - does it work with other devices? Have same problem on another computer?
    Fault with cable - Tried another cable? Does cable work with other "idevices"?
    Dirt in iPhone charging port - look and clean out gently with soft dry toothbrush or similar
    Fault with iPhone - reset / restore
    Take your choice.

  • HT1476 my iphone wont charge even if im using new battery charger

    my iphone 4 wont charge even if im using new battery charger please help me how to fix it..

    Ignore the hysteria about destroying any Apple support by taking screwdrivers and levering devices to install batteries supplied from goodness knows where to you iPhone. Apple parts are NOT available from the Internet.
    Logic: the charger is faulty. You might have covered this.
    The cable is faulty. Have you tried a different cable?
    The docking port is blocked By pocket fluff or other detritus. Have you checked this, and/ or tried to clean it out?
    The phone is faulty: refer it to Apple.

    Hi there Graham!
    I have a couple of articles that can help you troubleshoot this issue. First, if you are downloading HD content, you will need to know the system requirements for HD playback, which can be found here:
    iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3209
    Next, you will want to check your video playback settings on your Windows machine. The steps for that can be found right here:

    Hope that helps. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
