TS3297 Ipad 1 won't charge with adapter, will it work if I connect to a computer?

My first gen ipad isn't charging with any adapters so Im wondering what I can try before going for a new battery. Any advice?

Are you using the adaptor that came with it? You cannot charge the battery from a computer's USB port or from an iPhone/iPod charger.

IPad Air won't charge with ipad made adapters but only with iPhone's

My ipad air won't charge with any ipad made adapters! but will charge with my iPhone adapter. Oh and I bought my charger and adapter for my iPhone (that I now use for my iPad Air) at a store that doesn't relate to the officials apple store for only 12 dollars sadly when I charge my iPad Air
TTo let you know, my ipad adapter would always get hot so is it a problem with my ipad or adapter

my ipad adapter would always get hot so is it a problem with my ipad or adapter
Since your iPad charges with the phone adapter, the iPad adapter (that is made by who knows) is the problem. You tried to save a few dollars and it did not work. Get a real Apple adapter and your problems will go away.

My iPhone 5 and iPad mini won't charge with the lightning cable. Worked fine for months until today.

My iPhone 5 will not charge using the lightning cable. It has worked fine for months then started beeping and now won't take a charge. Neither will my iPad Mini. Does anyone know know what the problem could be?

MY IPAD MINI WON'T CHARGE
I'm f*cking stressed about it. I don't want to tell my mom that my charger is not working because THIS ALSO DID HAPPENED TO ME LAST YEAR!
( I also did a research and found that people also encounter this problems other do by apple chargers for the 6th time! )
I DID THE TUTORIALS IN YOUTUBE AND GOOGLE!!!! but nothing happened
Like Putting a spring on the charger cable. and cleaning the lightning port
PLEASE HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

My iPad one won't charge with any cable I buy? Tell me what I am doing wrong.

I have an iPad 1 and have had no major problems with it til now. I want to continue using it, I use it for many things and it would suck if it stoped working because of something IDK about. My first and only apple product.
The charger cable (That came with it) finally broke. The wires just came apart and it wasn't salvagable. I had an Ipod cord here that a friend left and plugged it into the original port (The one that was working fine with original charger and came with ipad). It was a tight squeze into the iPad (which I thought was normal) but I got it into there so I thought it would work. It won't work. So i bought a charger said to be used to ipads, and I plugged it in, same thing happened. I did however still sync it into the computer with the new cable I bought. What am I doing wrong that it won't charge on the wall anymore? Wrong cable? I'm confused. Please help!

Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
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). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, 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%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

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.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

IPad mini won't charge with Lightning charge cord

I just bought my iPad mini and the charge cord had not responded to the many suggested recommendations that I have read through on these forums. I have treid using the 10w AC adapter, I have tried plugging it into my computer, I have tried swapping a few 5w AC adapters out, and I have also tried resetting it. To no avail, the iPad mini now has a 0% charge and will not respond to anything except for the reset prompts the plug arrow charge with a flashing low red/black battery. Anyone out there getting the same issues? Anything else that I haven't tried already? Thanks.

Anyone out there getting the same issues?
You seem to have come across others while trying "many suggested recommendations"?
In reference to the exact same issues that I have experienced, I have not seen an identical post. Many of the issues I have mentioned have been solved using interchangable solutions. I guess I could correct my post as to say "issue". I apologize for my incorrect grammar.

Ipad wont turn on and the reset will not work. when i connect to computer, it is not recognized. what next?

my ipad will not turn on and I have tried the reset process and I have tried to connect it to my computer but it is not recognized by the computer. Not sure what else could resolve this issue and get my ipad to reset?

Did you try to get it working on another computer, see if that does it. BTW have you re-charged it using the 10w power adaptor, it might be out of power.
there's also a possibility that it may be a battery issue. contact apple if problems persist.
- Good Luck

My ipad air won't charge. I am using the correct cable supplied with it. I have restarted it and it still won't work.

Z zoozx ,
How could Microsoft come up in a forum about an Apple problem? We have heard for years how superior Apple products are but we've never had as many headaches and problems with our Windows PCs over the years as we have with the Apple devices we now have. My wife has the most recent iPad and my son has the most recent ipod Touch. Earlier problems notwithstanding, the iOS 7 upgrade was horrible and hard to imagine for a device where the company controls all of the hardware and the software with no variants. As for Microsoft, I can say I have programmed on many various platforms from PolyForth to Unix to Windows and .NET. I think what many Apple users don't understand about Windows is the sheer magnitude of variables in making the software and all upgrades work for such a myriad array of hardware platforms and usage scenarios across an enormous number of partners and small to large enterprises. Anyone who has worked with a large integrated system can get a sense of this. I work in healthcare and our HIS system is rated #1 in it's class (built on a derivitive of an old MIT OS) but due to it's vast integration capabilities and the variety of usage and setup variables from site to site, it requires daily dilligence in error reporting and resolution across all of it's applicaitons. Microsoft Windows works and integrates with a massive number of other Microsoft client and server solutions that are used by the vast majority of enterprises in the world. It's no small feat to keep the Microsoft software stack in good working order. Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion but I wish we could past this ABM mentality that pervades online forums. I'm not sure if you've noticed but the Apple forums are jam packed with folks like yourself and me having problems with Apple hardware or software so I'm not sure where we can say one is better than the other, even if you could carve out some realistic benchmarks from which we could compare them on an even playing field.
With all the said, and I apologize but feel that the Anti MS anecdotes belong left long in the past, but any ideas on how we can get the supplied power cables to charge the devices they came with? I don't believe I've ever encountered a problem at the power cable level like this in which 2 cables are not working on 2 different devices. I think it points to software problems but as someone else mentioned about display settings, I'm not sure how your display settings affect the charging of a device in a non display mode. Would that suggest the thunderbolt cables are not capable of delivering enough charge to keep up with idle power consumption?

Ipad 3 won't charge after updating to ios 6. even with apple charger

Hello Thisbemadi,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Please ensure you are charging your iPad with the Apple cable and power adapter that came with the device. If the issue persists, reset your iPad to its factory settings and try charging again.

My iPad 2 won't charge and it's completely shut down. I've tried pressing the two buttons simultaneously, but nothing works. It's driving me crazy! Any offers of suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

1. The most efficient way to charge an iPad is with the charger that came with the iPad and having that plugged into a wall outlet. Trying to charge while connected to a laptop often doesn't work because the USB port may not provide enough power.
2. Once an iPad battery has completely drained it may take an hour or more on the wall charger before the iPad responds. So after an hour on the charger reset the iPad. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.
3. If the iPad still does not start up make an appt at the Apple store. It will be far better if you have an appointment rather than just walking in because those with appointments will be taken care of before you are.

My iPod touch 4th gen. Won't charge with a enercell charger that I've used since December. It will only charge with the apple USB cord that came with it. And even the takes it about 6 sec. To realize its charging. Help me fix this?

Yes, I've been using it for months. And I can charge other devices with it. (my iPhone) but something weird just happened..... I kept on pluging it in the iPod and sometimes it would start to chàrge then sometimes it won't charge. Charges every time with the iPhone though.

My iPad mini won't charge at all. I got it for Chrisrmas and it is still in brand new condition and it was fine but now it won't charge at all! It used to charge in an exact position but now it has stopped altogether...Help!!

My iPad mini won't charge at all. I got it for Christmas off my dad and it is still in brand new condition. Until the other day it has been working fine but until yesterday or the day before my charger went all funny. In order to charge my iPad mini you had to put the charger in an exact place and if someone so much as touched it it would stop charging because it wasn't in its exact position. But today I tried to charge it again and I tried getting it in the same spot as yesterday but it is not working at all. I have only ever charged my iPad mini in the wall but I have seen posts about people charging it in the USB in an computer. So I thought I would also try that but that hasn't worked either and now my iPad mini won't charge in a plug or USB and I live really far away from an apple store and I can't get a new charger also because I live far away from the store. So what shall I do?

When and where was the iPad/charger purchased? It's covered by a 1-year warranty.
The problem may be the USB cable.

IPad Mini Won't Sync With Mac Mini (ios 8.1 OSX 10.6.8)

Problem : IPad Mini connects to iTunes OK, can be seen in iTunes and I can select which movies to sync to it etc. When I hit the "apply" button after making a change (ie deleting or adding a movie) the sync lasts just a second then the "sync" button remains greyed out, and I can't make them sync.

This sounds to me like a hardware issue. Take it to an Apple Store or Apple authorized repair service.

Any ideas I'm pulling my hair out !!!

Seems to be a hardware issue and you'll have to get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider, an Apple Store , to see if other 3rd party charger will work at their place.
