The tip of Lightning connector became a bit twisted to one side

I've noticed recently that the tip of my lighting connector is twisted to one side. Is this problem common? Should I be worried about it?
I know it's kinda lame question but I've already heard some strange stories about the tip of lightning connector breaking right inside an iPad so I am a little bit worried in this regard. Better be safe than sorry. Thanks!

I suggest purchasing a new Apple lightning to USB connector just in case the wiring in your old one is damaged. It may fail soon and a second connector will prevent a lot of anxiety.

    Does it get overly hot when used?
    Can't decide whether they are the product of overheating or merely that someone sprayed some product nearby, that was incompatible with the plastic.

  • The printer box shows "auto rotate" , but it prints only one side.

    HP laserjet model

    "Auto Rotate" generally refers to automatically selecting portriat or landscape printing.  For two sided printing you want to print Duplex.  Some printers have automatic duplexers and can print both sides of the page automatically, others support only manual duplex where one side is printed, then the pages are reloaded in the printer and the back side printed.
    Please read this post then provide some details.  What printer model? What operating system?

  • Will iPad3 cases fit the new iPad4 (besides the obviously smaller lightning connector)?

    Just wondering if there are any physical differences between the devices (size, thickness, button/jack/speaker placement, etc.) that would prevent me from using an iPad 3 case on a new iPad 4 (aside from the smaller lightening connector)?
    Thank you for your replies and assistance :-)

    Yes, the iPad 3 case will fit the iPad 4.

  • Any problems with lightning connector?

    New 5c charged only twice and now lightning connector feels loose and wont charge.

    Make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby taking the cable along with the iPhone. All package contents are included with the iPhone's warranty if determined to be a problem with the cable. If determined to be a manufacturing problem with the iPhone's lightning connector port, the iPhone will be exchanged.

  • HT201269 Is there a right, and wrong way to plug the lightning connector into the phone?

    The lightning connector dosen't want to plug into the slot and I don't want to force it, ... is there a right and wrong way to do this bisic and simple step?  Thanks

    No, it is a reversible plug. Either way is fine.
    Just make sure you plug it in straight until it "clicks" into place. It may take a bit of force if new, but check there's nothing in the port first.

  • My D800 SD card is not recognized by my new IPad. I have the lightning connector and tried but RAW and small Jpeg files...nothing!! Why not?

  • I have difficulty charging my iphone 5. The nearest service center said that there are missing pins in my lightning connector.

    My phone is still under warranty but the service center said that it is voided due to the missing pins inside the lightning connector.  What do i do with this? My phone can charge but you need to press on the cord a little for it to click.  My cord is not the issue because I just bought it and it is brand new.

    Well, your service is handled by an Authorized Apple Service Center. If they refuse to handle the claim, that is well within their rights. Apple as well could void a claim under the same circumstances. I'm not saying that you did or did not modify the device, but you could try and talk to a supervisor there and make another request. You can also try and contact Apple by obtaining a number with this support document and describe your problem. http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

  • Why do some next generation ipads have a lightning connector and some the old connector

  • What is the speed of the ipad air 2 lightning connector

    can the new ipad air 2 lightning connector operate at usb 3.0 speeds?

    I'm not sure what you're asking. If you're asking us to tell you the IMEI for your particular iPad, that's impossible. None of us, your fellow users, will have any access to such information. If you're asking how to find the IMEI for your iPad, that would be labeled as such on the box, or found by these additional possibilities:

  • Lightning connector tip fell off, can I fix it?

    Today I connected the Lightning connector to my IPad mini, when it finished charging I pulled it out and it suddenly snapped and fell off

  • Is the new lightning connector strong enough?

    I plan on getting an iPhone once i can but when i hook it up to a set of speakers and the phone is held up the lightning connector will it be strong enough.  I dont want the thing snapping if the phone gets bumped or something. 

    As roaminggnome said, none of us have one yet so it's hard to tell. This being said though, I think apple may include one of those docks (you know the ones that used to come with iPods)... That would help cradle the phone and make sure the phone fits into wherever you plan on plugging it into comfortably...
    If they don't include one of those, I assume it should be strong enough...
    But again, none of us really know..

  • The lightning connector for the iPod touch 5th Generation jiggles

    The lightning connector for the iPod touch 5th Generation jiggles just slightly up and down in the iPod itself. I think the lightning connector is slightly smaller than the port which is why it jiggles, but I am not sure. Can you guys confirm my theory, or did I damage it.
    Thanks for any help.

    Could be either.
    Try another cable
