Phone doesn't recognize charger?
I have a Droid Incredible by HTC and after it turned a year old and the warranty expired it started not taking a charge. I've looked at other posts, but my problem is slightly different. When I plug my charger into my phone, the phone may or may not recognize it. If the phone does recognize it, I'll leave it alone and let it sit plugged in with ABSOLUTELY no movement and all of a sudden it will tell me I need to plug the charger in. If it doesn't recognize the charger I'll either wiggle it or plug and unplug the charger and eventually it will recognize it. I don't believe it's the battery because if I am able to get the phone to recognize the charger it will charge fine, it seems to be the connection inside the phone. Anyone have similar problems, and/or solutions?
You might try calling HTC an see if they can fix the issue or if they could send you a replacement D.inc. mine has'nt went over that Hurdle yet but with it being over a year old as well it's kind of raising those back Hairs B33....I found my Colors Yeaaa!
An to All Please have a Safe! an Happy New Year!

I changed my email address for my Apple ID. When I want to use iCloud my iPhone doesn't seem to recognize my new email it keeps asking for my password for my old email. I can't update the new address it keeps defaulting to my old one.
Hello TirEoghain,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
First I would like you to try the instructions below to sign out of your iCloud account, and then sign in with your new Apple ID.
iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download to your device.
If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud

8130 doesn't recognize charger anymore
I plugged my phone into the charger last night, just like any other night. This morning, it was in the red, not charged at all. I thought "Maybe I didn't plug it in all the way" since the plug symbol wasn't showing. So I removed the charger, plugged it back in and the plug symbol appeared.
However, it disappeared about 30 seconds later, and the phone won't charge. Now the battery is completely dead,and I can't get it to charge at all. Is this a battery or a phone issue?
And most importantly, what do I do to fix it? I have just about had it with this phone. I've had it for a little over a year and can't begin to count the problems I've had with it. I really love my phone, I just wish it worked. Please help! Many thanks!The issue could be the mini usb port at your phone or the software, or even the battery. You need to narrow it down one by one.
First, can you charge your phone via a PC USB and does it stay on charge?
If that drop you as well, we have a problem, because you may have issue with trying to reload the OS as it uses USB to transfer data. But try to connect it with a Desktop Manager anyway and see if it remains connect for a period of time. If so, reload/upgrade the latest hand held software.
Or you can try if your husband's Curve battery will fit in your Pearl. it is not going to cause any harm, if you Pearl does not accept the Curve battery, you will see a red stop sign with a battery in it symbol after it fires up. However, if it works, connect it to a charger and see if it remains on charge, if it once again drop you after 30 secs. You proof that is not a battery issue, so you can concentrate on the phone h/w or s/w.

New Phone doesn't recognize iCloud backup photos!!
My iPhone lock button stopped working so I took it to the apple store and they swapped it out for a new one thankfully since it was under warranty. The gentleman said that it would take about 20min to upgrade it to ios7 and transfer the infor from my previous retore that ws in iCloud so that I could just do that at home if I wanted to. I opted to go ahead and do it from home since the Apple Store had sooo many people in it. I came home and updated to iOS7 and selected my backup from the night before which was 2.7GB. Everything looked likee all my apps are on my phone, but none of the data really. And my photo stream had showed 814 pictures the night before and 314 photos on my camera roll. Currently there are only 94 photos on my phone!! How do I get ALL!! Of the back up to restore to my phone please??
Thank you.Photo stream servers only keep photos for up to 30 days then they are deleted. These photos will remain on a device's photo stream folder, but if the stream is turned off and then on again, only the currently stored photos are downloaded back to the device. This is what happened to you.
Always move photos from a photo stream group to another album for safe keeping.
Using icloud backup to secure photos is risky for a number of reasons. Always sync photos to a computer for archiving. -

I have recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to OS 4.2.9. After plugging in headphones, I can't get the speakers to work. I have read a few articles online that suggest inserting and removing the headphone plug into the jack, but this hasn't worked. Any ideas?
Just read another article that suggested blowing compressed air in the port. After trying this, the speakers were working again.

My 4S iphone doesn't recognize our Chromecast Wi-Fi network.
I've downloaded and installed the Chromecast app, but my phone isn't recognizing the Chromecast network on the wi-fi.
What do you mean the phone doesn't recognize the "chromecast" network?
Sounds like you should be directing this question to Google since it's their app and their hardware (chromecast). -
My iPhone 4 quit charging correctly. It does charge but very slowly and icon doesn't indicate it as charging. I've checked cables and charges and the problem is definetily with the phone. My car stereo no longer recognizes it as a device. Neither does the computer. The real strange thing to me is that when I plug it into my old klispch speaker dock it will play songs. My battery life is good when it is charged so I don't think its the battery. I've tried resetting the phone and cleaning the charging port. I'm out of warranty.
Would disconnecting the battery possibly reset it from some glitch or is the charging port got some bad contacts?I checked with the Genius Bar. It was a new dilema to the lady that was helping me. She took it to a back room and worked on it but it came out the same. She gave me some options for repair or credit for replacement.
I just kept the phone and put up with slowly charging it by plugging it in and then turning it off.
I couldn't transfer anything from itunes.
I finally got fed up and bought a new charging port for $10. and a toolkit for $3. I looked up a video on youTube for the replacement and did it.
That solved all the problems, it was the charging port, must have been some bad pins or something because it patially worked. -
I upgraded my daughter's iMac to iTunes 11.1 and now it doesn't recognize her iPhone 4s. The phone will charge and DropBox see's it but iTunes doesn't. Any suggestions? I've already uninstalled and reinstalled the software so that doesn't work. Thanks for any help!
Hello jlgougeon,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591
Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
Ensure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Install software updates on your Mac.
Note: If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.http://apple.com/itunes/download
Check USB connections. iOS devices require USB 2.0 to function properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, refer to the computer's specifications.
Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
Restart your Mac.
Best of luck,

My iphone charges when I plug it into my computer, but itunes doesn't recognize that any device is attached (I have the latest version; a pc, not a mac; it's a Verizon iphone). Also, the phone's info button (which should tell me the serial number) says "MEID: Unknown". Apple support won't help me without the serial number...
Ideally, I would like a button combination to restore the phone to factory settings, so that I can activate it. Or at least figure out the serial number so I can get tech support.Serial # is below the model# on the BOX !!
looks like you bought a Craked Iphone and Not a NEW one from Apple direct or the carrier. -

My iPhone doesn't recognize my charging!
I connected my iPhone 4 to a speaker dock thingy and I rushed to take my phone out and later that day when I went to charge it, it didn't recognize the charger!! I have read related discussions but most of them seem like I have to go to the apple store to get it fixed. But one problem is is that whenever I connect my iPhone to the charger, I wait a few hours (mostly 2 hours) and it gains 4% still. It seems like it charges but it charges only little percent and my iPhone doesn't recognize it's charging!! PLEASE HELP ASAP
Whether anyone else has the problem or not is irrelevant. You have it. I'm sure that among the 900 million iOS devices sold there is at least one other one with the same problem. But how does knowing that help you?
What troubleshooting have you done so far? Have you tried a different cable? A different USB adapter? Is it an Apple adapter or an aftermarket adapter? Is it an Apple cable or an aftermarket cable? Are you trying to use the wall adapter or a computer? If you are using a computer try the wall adapter.
Have you tried cleaning the dock connector on the bottom of the phone? Remove any lint or dirt in it, and inspect it for damage or corrosion using a magnifying glass. -
