TS3274 ipad will not charge when USB cord connected to PC or socket.

When i plug the USB cord to either electrical socket or computer.  ipad will not charge.  Says NOT CHARGING.  Please HELP.

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%.

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • My ipad will not charge when i connect it to my computer.

    My ipad will not charge when i connect it to my computer.  It will sync but it states "Not Charging" next to the battery icon.  It will chrage when I plug it into a wall outlet driectly.

    The USB port on your computer does not provide enough power oto charge your iPad. This is normal. Charge it by plugging into a wall outlet.

  • IPad will not charge by USB only by plug

    My iPad charges fine whiles plugged into mains, but will not charge by USB. It's says its charging when flat but once on it has a message next to the battery bar saying not charging?

    Correct, as most computers do not provide sufficient current to charge the iPad properly. It may charge, but it will be very, very slow.

  • TS3274 My iPad will not charge when plugged in.  How can I fix this?

    My iPad stopped charging when I plug it in.  I have used different cords but that doesn't make a difference.  I also can no longer sync with iTunes.  Has anyone had this problem?

    Have you tried a reset to see if it charges (and syncs) after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I have a 2nd gen ipad. Since the latest ios update my ipad will not charge when hooked up to my computer running windows 7 and even though it shows that it syncs in Itunes, it will not download any apps. It just seems to skip that part.

    I went to the apple store and they hooked up my ipad to a mac and it showed that it was charging and that apps would download. My ipones, touches, and ipods are not having any problems, just this ipad. It seems to be since I updated to the new ios. You can't even do a restore on it because it doesn't recognize it. It shows up top that it's doing that but nothing happens on the ipad. The computer seems to recognize the ipad, itunes recognizes it. It acts like it is communicating with it but it doesn't download anything and won't charge when it's hooked up to the USB port. THe Apple store says there is nothing wrong with this ipad which is about 6 mths old. So what now?

    Most USB port do not supply enough current to charge the iPad.

  • Extigy computer will not recognise when usb is connected

    When the soundblaster is connected to?my computer with a usb the computer does not seem to acknowledge the extigy is there(nothing comes up on my computer section-XP)
    The sound blaster disc has installed ok,and the remote picture pops up on screen each time the computer isswitched on.
    Any body help?

    I hate to be a "me too'er", but... Me too! I took it back to apple a week after I got this brand new iMac and couldn't believe that it wouldn't boot up. We reinstalled Leopard, did a hardware check, and talked about everything imaginable that could be wrong. Why would the "grey screen of death" keep killing my boot up? It dawned on me that every time it happened my connected iPod would light up and show the "do not disconnect" screen-- the only sign of life coming from my computer. As I had that realization, I disconnected my iPod and immediately the apple came on and the boot up went lightning fast... I think this should be driving a lot of people crazy--- shouldn't it? The genius at apple didn't say anything about it, and I know he's been around a long time. kind of disturbing that this isn't a totally well known issue.

  • My iPhone 4 will not charge when it's plugged in. could the socket in the phone be damaged?

    I ran my ipod all night and ran the battery dead, when I plugged it in the phone never beeped that it was charging and the indicator showed it needed a charge. Now it's totally dead and won't take a charge at all???
    Could I have damaged the plug in socket on the phone? I've tried 3 different cords, and my 12v plug my 110v plug and plugging it into my computer. I got nothing???
    Can it be taken a part and cleeaned? where the cord plugs into the phone?

    Plug it into a wall outlet and leave it along for 15-20 minutes.
    If it doesn't start charging after that, take it to Apple.         

  • My iPad will not charge, it can sync to iTunes and transfer data/music to it, but when plugged in to a USB or an A/C wall adapter all it says is not charging.

    My iPad will not charge, it can sync to iTunes and transfer data/music to it, but when plugged in to a USB or an A/C wall adapter all it says is not charging.

    A lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.
    In terms of the wall charger, have you tried a different charger and/or cable, or do you know anybody else with an iPad so that you can try their charger and cable and they can try yours ?
    Have you tried a reset to see if it charges after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • My new iPad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. Any suggestions?

    my new ipad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. What should I try?

    Does the charger get warm at all? Plug the cable into your computer with iTunes open. Does it say not charging.? If it does, the cable is good. The iPad will charge very slowly when pluged into your computer.

  • HT4060 iPad will not charge if hooked by USB to pc or plugged into wall.  How do I know if the problem is with iPad, cable or power adapter.  I have a 12, 10 and 5W adapters no success with any.  Only one lightening cable so can't swap cables.

    Then it's time to make an appointment at your Apple Genius Bar at your Apple Store.  Apple will check it out and if it's defective and still in waranty (you don't say which model you have), it will be replaced.

    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...

  • My ipad will not charge up. it just shows the red battery signal and then switches off

    my ipad will not charge up. it just shows the red battery signal and then switches off. The same charger succesfully charges other idas so i know it is no the charger that is faulty.Any suggestions

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) 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).
