TS3274 ipad connecting to laptop----not charging? to power----charging is not supported with this accessory.

anyone assist me. it was ok every time .now the charging very slow . one hour charge 1%. it is 1st generation. battery life running out?

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

Charging not supported with this accessory shows up on my iPad. The cable seems to be broken at the connector. Could it be that I need a new USB cable?

Yes, but should be covered under the warranty of your device (or any device under warranty using that cable) just bring it into the store.

HT4060 ' charging not supported with this accessory' and Not Charging at all

Help and advice please.
I am having problems getting the new IPad to charge at all and sometime it displays this message.
' charging not supported with this accessory'. This message is appearing occasionally on my 5 week old new iPad (3) within a few minutes of plugging it in. :( It is also not charging after this message appears. I am using the supplied wall socket and cable. I am also having problems getting the iPad to charge at all even if the message does not show. This is frustrating me no end. I expected a reliable device given the amount I paid.
I am so disappointed, frustrated and feeling some what angry.
I rang Apple support today (twice) and it made a liar of me working just fine for few minutes the first time then again failed, then for hour or so after the second call seemed to work just fine. Now it is not charging, and won't charge despite repeatedly unplugging and repluging, Switching off the iPad and turning it back on etc etc.
I am not happy at all!

Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

Charging Is Not Supported With This Accessory...Yeah...Right...Whatever...Liars!

I have been up, down and all over and keep seeing the same replies although I don't believe it's dust or moisture in the connector or that the USB is going bad. I have had my ipad 1 for two years. No issues. I purchased an iPhone 4 mid-summer this year. All of a sudden within a week or so of using the original cable I began to get the following message "charging is not supported with this accessory".
Now, I used the cord that came with it which should not have gone bad within a week or so.
Since then, and only since then, I am beginning to have the same issue with my iPad which I NEVER had issues with before.
Also, I have purchased at least ten USB cords and adaptors.
DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY REAL IDEA ABOUT THIS ISSUE??
I've always been a PC person and I was considering switching over to MAC until this. I know Apple knows about this especially with all of the posts on APPLES's forum regarding this issue. I'm really...really ****** that Apple would take advantage of its customers this way. I'm not crazy. Every reply offers the same suggestions yet, with the issues I have and in the order in which I've experienced them, the suggestions don't fit.
Some manufacturers consider the deaths their product will cause as a cost of doing business. They figure settlements for the deaths are very small compared to the profit margin. Apple has figured in this "possible" loss of customers as a cost of doing business. Since this issue doesn't happen to everyone, or at least not enough people, a bandwagon can't get going. So they figure there will be a few (thousands) of issues regarding the error "charging is not supported with this accessory," although it's Apple's accessory. But not enough to make Apple pay attention! Classic capitalism!
My freakin’ expensive iPad is one large glorified coaster! Can you believe it?! An $800 coaster!

Thanks for response. Do you work for Apple? For months I've been on the board searching for answers and this is the very first time I've ever come upon such a response that offers something new, as well as previous suggestions.
"It does this when is senses abnormal input to device or the Chip itself is faulty."
I would consider this if my iPad hadn't started this once I brought the iPhone home. If the chip is faulty or the port is dirty...iPad two years old...could be...iPhone brand new...I don't think so.
"...as stated "accessory is not supported or faulty""
Brand new cord(s)...Apple cords...how is it Apple cords don't support Apple products?
"The USB Cable connecting the devices is faulty..."
Again, brand new cord(s)
"...or the device charging port is shorting either due to dirt or damage."
Too much of a coincidence. Two year old iPad, without any previous issues, and a brand new iPhone...???
"Dirt can be cleaned..."
Too much of a coincidence. How much dirt can a new iPhone have?
"...replacement of charging dock assembly...Power Management Chip is faulty..."
Again, no previous issues with iPad until iPhone. Same issue on two different devices, one older and one new. Doesn't make sense.
"Replacement of the chip requires microsoldering skills."
"I shouldn't need them."

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.

My iPod touch 4G suddenly pops up with 'charging is not supported with this accessory' no matter what cord or source I use. It worked fine for months before this. What can I do?

This is crazy!  I love my iPod but it suddenly has a charging issue. Please HELP! I had absolutely no problem charging it for 7 or 8 months. Then last week I started getting an error message every time I try to charge it. I used to be able to charge it through my PC, PS3, wall adapter or car adapter. Now I get this message no matter where I try to charge it or with what cord! It says, 'charging is not supported with this accessory'. It happens after about 3-5 min of charging. Then I have to unplug it and plug it back in to keep charging it!  How or why did this happen and how do I fix it?

If you did not do a reset of your iPod please try that (you will not lose any data)
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If this does not work inspect the opening in your iPod where the cable connects. Look for any debris and clean it (a magnifying glass may be required).

What does charging not supported with this accessory mean?

So whenever I try to charge my iPod 4g with ios 6.1.3 it always says that charging is not supported with this accessory
What does it mean?

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

'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

Charging is not supported with this accessory iPhone 5 and lighting adapter

I just received my 30 pin lighting adapter for my iPhone 5 and connected it to my existing BMW (2008 335i) factory 30 pin cable.
The battery changes to the charge symbol for a few seconds and then I get a error on my phone that says "charging is not supported with this accessory".
Other than that I am able to search and play music from my phone through my car's audio system without isssue.
I have had this car for 4 years and used it with my 3rd generation iPod touch without issue. Wondering if anyone else is experiencing
charging issues with the new adapter and their exisiting setups,

I purchased the following adapter from Amazon for my 2009 335i, and all functions (including charging) work fine on my iPhone 5:

Charging not supported with this accessory. Multiple cables...please help

A couple weeks ago I started occasionally getting a "Charging is not supported with this accessory" error when my phone was plugged in to my wall, and car charger. Then, it would randomly start popping up when it wasn't even plugged in to anything... it got worse and now it won't even charge. It just pops on and off like I'm plugging and unplugging the cable. So I decided to restore the iphone and update again, to wipe everything off. During the restore it got to clear the software, but every time before it can finish installing everything back the iphone comes "unplugged" and now I can't even use the phone because it's stuck in recovery mode and just says to plug it into itunes. I've tried 3 different cables, and tried doing this about 6 times now. Please help, I'm at a loss... I even cleaned the port where it connects and everything. It's an iphone 4 with ATT, and I've had it for about a year...

I tried that earlier today
I just cleaned it again for about an hour with the toothbrush. It got almost all the way done restoring and then said an unknown error occured and the iphone shut back off. Sigh

"Charging is not supported with this accessory" with iOS 4.2

It looks like iOS 4.2 is not supporting the older USB cables that have the longer plugs with the two fastener buttons on the sides.
Since yesterday (after my update to iOS 4.2) I am getting that message on the iPhone screen:
"Charging is not supported with this accessory"
Now I have to spend another $29 for a cable that used to work until yesterday morning.
I am just not getting why Apple would render cables useless with a software update.
Has anyone experienced the same issue?

My two cents... This may eliminate some options...
I installed iOS 4.2 on my iTouch last night. I went to set up my link with Ubuntu on my main machine and got the message "Charging is not supported with this accessory" when I plugged into my USB port. After reading this post I tried another USB cable, and a reboot, but neither worked.
I tried plugging my iTouch into a USB charging device USING THE SAME TWO CABLES I USED WITH MY PC, and the iTouch behaved normally.
I tried plugging it into a Windows XP laptop and it behaved normally. I tried plugging it into another Ubuntu computer, and it behaved normally, although this computer is running a slightly different version of Ubuntu.
My iTouch is configured in a standard fashion.
I am concluding that the problem is not the cables, and it is not the connector at the base of my iTouch.
My suspicion is that one of my computers is running at a slightly different USB voltage than the others, and that this difference is somehow triggering a reaction from my new iOS 4.2 installation.

IPhone 4 "Charging is not supported with this accessory"

I am using the IPhone 4 IOS 6.1.3 and receiving the warning "Charging is not supported with this accessory".
I changed the cords and cleaned the ports with a wire, then compressed air.
Brought it intro the Genius Bar and still having an issue, Apple thinks it may be a damaged port.
I refuse to believe that since it will still accept a charge and will data transfer to my laptop.
Any ideas on fixes?

Does this message appear when anything is plugged into the dock connector or a specific device?
If the former, the port is damaged.
If the later, the device causing the message is the problem.

Mophie charging not supported with this accessory

Error on my Mophie Helium states: Charging I not supported with this accessory.
I have had it replaced 3 times. Same issue. Just got. New one yesterday. Same hen I woke up. Using the cable they sent. Using the outlet that came with my iPhone 5. No change. I tried with a blackberry wall outlet and its he same.
I have one last test. The ac adapter that came with my new iPad. If that works great. But. It should be supplied by Mophie. Either way I will have to call them.
So far my iPad charger is working great. What the heck?
Tips other than what I found out?
ThanX!
Kevin
:apple:

I tested it, the ac adapter that came with my new iPad works great. The error never came up again. It should be supplied by Mophie. Either way I will have to call them. But that is THE answer. I have had 5 replacements. All are the same. My wife has the Air and it never has had this issue.

Charging is not supported with this accessory with original charger.

Hello everyone. A few weeks ago I started getting the charging is not supported with this accessory despite using the same cords and plugs I have always been using. At first this happened occasionally but it still charged. Now it only shows up as this, and I've even tried switching to other chargers and it still doesn't work. It now charges at a VERY VERY slow rate, like 2-5% per hour (But only shows charging is not supported, I don't get the charging signal), and I'm not sure what the issue is.
I'm still under the one year limited warranty, is this something the warranty would cover at an Apple store?
I tried reseting it and updating to the new software, but nothing has worked. I've also never used a non-Apple charger to try to charge it or anything.
Thanks for the help.

it may not be this but i had a problem like that where lint had gotten into the port and wasnt allowing the charger to connect like it needed to it would recognize something being in there but wouldnt charge a thin pair of tweezers would be a great investment just take a look i would also check the headphone port

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.
