  • Why does my iPod(3rd gen) say charging is not supported with this accessory even though its not plugged in?

    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.

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

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

  • 'Charging is not supported with this accessory' But phone isn't plugged in!

    Hi, I spilled a small bit of water on my iPhone about 2 weeks ago.I put it in rice for 2 days and left it to itself for a while and its working again ( except the home button is broken).But the ' Charging is not supported with this accessory message' stays on my screen while the phone is locked when it ISN'T plugged in.It still charges,but this message appears when the phone isn't connected to anything.I cleaned the connector and this actually fixed a problem I had that meant the phone wouldn't play music, but this message is still on the screen.Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks

    Try Jailbreaking it, it should do something, and because you have your device on iOS 5.x then i recommend that you use Absynth to Jailbreak your device, that may get rid of the message, you might anlso try restoring your iPhone completely or just from a back-up, or if you do jailbreak your device you could delete the launch daemon that gives you the notification...
    Hope this helped a bit

    Use the original cable and charger that came with your iPhone, and plug it into a wall socket for several hours.

  • I just did the recent upgrade and now I keep getting an error message when I try to open a book on my Kindle app, I have deregistered the app and reloaded and the same thing happens, does anyone know how to fix?

    You are seeing the message because the new AirPort Extreme has some specific System Requirements:
    http://www.apple.com/airport-extreme/specs/
    Setup and Administration
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later and AirPort Utility 1.3
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and AirPort Utility 6.3
    AirPort Utility 5.6.1 in Snow Leopard may or may not work correctly with the new Extreme for all functions. As long as things are working OK for now, you can probably leave them "as is" and wait for another Mavericks update to fix some issues before you "upgrade".
    If you have an iPhone or iPad, you could use that to administer any settings changes on the new Extreme.

  • When I try to load free apps I keep getting error message 1004.  What does this mean.

    When I try to load free apps on my ipad I keep getting error message 1004.  What does this mean?

    I have never experienced this issue, but if you can't find anything that helps on the site that Philly suggested, I have read that this has worked for that error code.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data or Cache. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Error message charging is not supported with this accessory

    I have an iPhone 3GS from Jul 2009. Fully updated. I normally charge it using a USB port on my MacBook Pro so it also syncs at the same time. This week began getting an alert on my phone which said "charging is not supported with this accessory". I resolved initially by unplugging/replugging the cord. In all cases the phone had been charging for some time before the alert appeared. In most cases the phone was sitting on the same surface as the macbook and had not been moved since beginning charge.
    The only support document I can find refers to firewire and does not apply to my device.
    Since starting this week it is happening more frequently and may require being re-connected several times.
    It is still intermittent issue but I depend on my phone.
    Thank you for your assistance

    I just found some on eBay for about 1.99 each with free shipping and ordered about 6 of them from the seller, I think they came from China so it takes a couple weeks. So far I never got a bad cable, but if you do use eBay please check their feedback to make sure they have a history of delivering quality cables and working cables. Always pay using PayPal if possible so you don't lose your money. There are online sites like Meritline and such that have cheaper cables for direct sales with PayPal checkout and free shipping.
    I use the 6' cable in the car, so I don't have figure where to put the iPhone or iPod when plugged into the stereo and it is helpful to have them when trying to charge when the plug is being a dresser or something when I travel.
    I also like the retractable cables ($0.99)
    I also have the Scosche FlipSYNC Keychain cable too, a bit expensive, but you always have a cable with you just in case.

  • How to fix error charging is not supported with this accessory (iphone 3gs)

    how to fix error charging is not supported with this accessory (iphone 3gs)?

    This can mean there is some dirt, lint, or foreign material in the iPhone's dock connector port and it doesn't take much, or the dock connector port has damage with the pins or there is some moisture damage.

  • IPhone 4 on iOS 5 not charging, getting a error saying "Charging is not supported with this accessory" Help?

    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.

  • IPhone error "Charging is not supported with this accessory"

    I keep getting error "Charging is not supported with this accessory" ever since the last update. I only get this message when iphone is locked and not plugged in to anything. When phone is locked the message keeps popping up every few seconds, consiquently I'm having to charge at least twice a day!
    Error only occurs when not plugged in & iphone locked & doesn't make any difference if wifi on or off
    Connectors have been cleaned
    iphone has been restored
    iphone has been re-booted
    Nothing seems to work and after researching, all similar posts seem to be pertaining to actually plugging in to something and the fix was "clean connector" this is not my problem, error only happens if not plugged in. I'm assuming it's a bug from the last update but my girlfriends iphone is fine.
    Would someone please help as the drain on my phone is rediculous now, it wasn't that good to start with but now the phone is pretty useless unless I'm near a plug! It's also very annoying having the screen constantly coming to life with this error message, especially at night.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Wayne.

    I've not been able to find any new solutions so I thought I would try repeating everything I've tried again. I started by re-cleaning the connector as, logically my error only occurs when not plugged in to anything. To my amazement the problem is now resolved, I did take quite a while cleaning this time using toothpicks, cotton buds and nail varnish remover. So I geuss I should have cleaned it better in the first place! Doh! Anyway it's FIXED!!

  • 'Charging is Not Supported With This Accessory - Dismiss' message ..!!!

    Hi. ..tried looking for an anwer to this - lots of questions about it and no solutions!! yet...
    Infuriating little problem.. got a Belkin ipod car connector a while back for my Honda, hard wired thru car stereo. Worked great on previous iphones and ipod touche etc...tunes on the move without one of those awful cassette adaptor things... anyway get my new iPhone4 and now all I get is the message
    'Charging is Not Supported With This Accessory - Dismiss' every few seconds which interrupts the music playback.. maddening! so cant play music in car .... very occasionally it stays away long enough for one song but usually it happens every few seconds. Anyone come up with fixes for this? Or yet another example of us being persuaded to buy more accessories? I dont want it to charge I just want it not to stop playing.... please help .... Im a pro musician and the tune-less car is killing me. KB

    I had the same issue and the only solution I found was to buy a higher amp charger. I got an incase wall/car charger that works great and runs at 2A. I'm guessing the iPhone 4 requires more power to charge. I would not only get the message you describe but the phone wasn't charging either.
    The incase charge looks great too.

  • IPhone 3GS - "Charging is not supported with this accessory"

    Hi everyone,
    I'm hoping someone can help me with this. Basically we have a non-Apple docking station at work, and we all take turns to plug in our iPods and iPhones to listen to our music. The moment I plug my iPhone in there, a message pops up saying that "Charging is not supported with this accessory"
    This honestly doesn't bother me at all - the message pops up on everyone's device when they plug it in.
    The thing that really bothers me is that now when charge my iPhone at home, with the official cables, etc., the same message pops up. Most of the time, if I remove the cable and re-insert it, the message doesn't appear and my phone charges normally again.
    This problem only started after I plugged my phone into that docking station at work, and now it just won't stop. I've restarted my phone and everything, but I can't believe that the problem's just not going away. I'm not even using the docking station anymore... No one else at work is experiencing the same problem.
    Is there anything I can do about this, or will that message never stop appearing when I try to charge my iPhone?
    Thanks in advance!

    OK, so just an easy check - reset your phone and see if it makes any difference - hold down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears. Then, once the Home screen comes back up, plug 'er in, and see what you get.
    If you get the same message, then you need to take a trip to your nearest Apple store or Authorized Apple Service Provider with the iPhone, cable, and adaptor so they can check it out. Or, you can simply purchase a new adaptor and cable (it sounds like the adaptor itself may have an issue at this point....)
    Cheers and good luck!

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

    sounds like the cable or the iphone connector are somehow damaged

  • Suddenly when trying to charge my iPhone i see the message 'charging is not supported with this accessory' - please help!

    Iphone reads Charging is not supported with this accessory?! why has this suddenly appeared when attempting to charge?

    Check your dock connector for crud or lint...it doesn't take much to create a short, thus producing that message. Use canned air & a soft toothbrush.
