TS2634 Why would my ipad Smart Cover suddenly stop charging?

HHI my ipad Smart Cover suddenly has stopped charging when I close it. Can anyone give me a reason it might do that?

Gotcha...figured it was worth mentioning.
What I would do next (provided you've exhausted everything else) would be to backup the device using iTunes...backup your media as well. Then restore the device as new, not using any backup. After the initial setup, don't install any apps or media. Test for the issue. If the issue is present after restoring as new, that a good indication that there's a hardware issue. If the issue is not present after restoring as new, the issue a likely a botched/borked setting somewhere in the backup of the iPad. In this case (and assuming you want to clear the issue), you'll have to rebuild your device (apps media, settings, everything) from the restored as new state. This won't be pleasant or enjoyable but it may need to be done if you want to clear the issue. I had to do this recently to clear a different issue and I know it's not easy, especially all of the settings involved. I may have it a bit easier than most since I keep my iPads pretty empty...my 16 GB devices have more than 8 GB free on average (3 - 4 GB used).

  • Why is my ipad smart cover case no longer locking my ipad

    I have an ipad 3 and an apple smart case for it.  It use to work great, but now for some reason when I close the cover it does not lock my ipad.  In fact when I manually lock my ipad and close the cover it unlocks.  Anyone know why  I rebooted my ipad and am still having the same issue.  Thanks.

    Just to be sure, go to Settings>General>iPad Cover lock/Unlock>On.
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

  • Why has my iPad and iPhone suddenly stopped communicating together

    up until last night my iPhone and iPad would bother send and recieve iMessages, FaceTime calls and Skype calls. Now my iPad is not receiving iMessages sent to my mobile number and when it sends or communicates it does it through my email address. also last night my iPhone stopped sending iMessages and started sending them as texts. Why has this happened? I didn't change or modify any settings, I did the most recent updates a while ago when they came out, they are both signed into the same iCloud account and to the same wifi. Handoff is turned on on both, please help???

    Have you tried going into Settings then into messenger and see if your Apple ID has a tick next to it

  • IPad mini Retina suddenly stopped charging

    I have an iPad mini Retina, iOS 8.1.2, which is now out of warranty, but I got a serious problem with it: One day, while it was charging with an Apple original cable and wall charger, the "This accesory may not be compatible" message was displayed and, since then, it never charged again with any charger. I have cleaned the outlet and the cable itself for any lint, etc., but nothing changed. All the accesories are Apple-branded and original, so I don't understand why is this happening and I'm stuck with an useless, beautiful $400 brick.
    Thanks for any feedback on this issue.

    Hi Maybe  a hardware problem  make an Appointment at  Apple Store They may replace ipad but you will need to pay part of the cost. Cheers Brian

  • IPad (4th Gen) What is a good case that goes with the "iPad Smart Cover"?

    Hi,
    I'm currently looking for a case that covers the aluminum back that also goes with the iPad Smart Cover. Thanks!

    I've bought a ton of back covers. It's been hard trying to find the right one. I've settled on two really good ones though:
    Caudabe Shell: This one's my daily driver, so to speak. I've got the frost version and it looks really good and has held up really well. Price is very reasonable too.
    Switcheasy Cover Buddy: I like this one as well. Only thing is that they don't seem to have a frost version. They just have opaque colors, which I'm not a huge fan of. This is also a little bit more expensive than the Caudabe cover.

    For added protection, use wilsons leather cleaner/protector spray.  Makes it water proof and stain resistant.  Just did it to my tan cover and it worked great!

  • A website I frequently visit will no longer come up. Safaris says that my connection has been lost but it hasn't. I even get emails from the website but I still can't get on it. Why would it all of a sudden do this?

    A website I frequently visit will no longer come up. Safaris says that my connection has been lost but it hasn't. I even get emails from the website but I still can't get on it. Why would it all of a sudden do this?

    The reason, I included the annotation that I'd upgraded my Itunes, (On my Computer) is B/C in many forums - the very first question, *HELPERS* ask, is. "Do you have the latest version of Itunes downloaded on your computer." I wanted to knock out any obvious replies.
    Now-  "DO YOU have any idea,"... how your UNHELPFUL remarks, do absolutely nothing but hurt others that might not have the EXPERIENCE you have? How do you expect people to know things without asking questions? Whew! RUDE!!

  • IPad smart cover cannot come on

    my iPad smart cover connot stick together pleasget some instucions to put my smart cover on!!!!

    If you look at your Smart cover, there are 3 places where it's thinner to allow the cover to fold up and be used as a stand.  Since these parts don't touch the screen, the screen doesn't get cleaned right there.  If you remove the cover and fold it with the microfiber side facing out, you can wipe it across the screen for a complete cleaning.
