Upgraded to iOS6 and now charging cable doesn't work

I just upgraded to iOS6 n my iPhone 4, and now my charging cable doesn't work.  No...it's not an "official" Apple charger, but even the usb cable doesn't work when I plug it into my computer.  If I plug my iPad charger into it, it works fine.  How can the new operating system determine what kind of usb charging cable it "wants" to accept?  This charger and cable worked flawlessly before the OS upgrade.

Same problem here. I use a wall charger and have had success by unplugging the charger from the wall, plugging the adapter into the iPhone, then plugging charger back into wall. Had the same problem with a car charger and got the phone to charge using the same procedure. I'd love to know if this works for you. Good luck!

  • I just upgraded to Lion and now my microsoft doesn't work. What program is replacing entourage?

    What is apples version of microsoft office?

    You most likely are using Office 2004 which requires Rosetta. Lion now longer supports Rosetta so all PPC-only programs fail to work. The solution is simple: upgrade to Office 2011.

    There are alternatives. But none of them have Google street view, able to work on iOS 6. Apple should have offered this as a beta version, for a few more months instead of inflicting us with an inferior product. This iPad will probably be my last Apple product. A shame, because until last a few days ago, I thought the iPad and iPhone were fantastic.
    Apple should quit their petty squabbling with, Google and Samsung and concentrate on supplying the best product.
    Google and Samsung must be enjoying this particular fiasco.

  • Will I lose my photos in iPhoto if upgrade to a latest version? I have upgraded my system to Mavericks and now my iPhoto doesn't work. Can anyone help, please?

    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work. Help?

    I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work.
    ^^ that's the main problem. Here's the full history.
    I bought a new 13" i5 MBP, early 2011 edition. I had an old white Macbook 2.14 ghz core2duo on Snow Leopard. I attempted to port over my time machine backup, but encountered problems in that my User was inaccessible from the new computer after the import finished, and I had to go in and change the root password, etc, and for some reason or another, I couldn't install any programs at all from that administrator's account. By "couldn't" I mean I could install them, but upon installation they would never boot. So, I took it to the apple store and did a clean install from the most up to date Lion OSX. Then, I created a brand new admin account, instead of trying to import the old one, and things seemed great. Then, I just imported my old files from the TM backup, but not any system settings, permissions, or user data. Just my Docs, pics, vids, apps, and itunes stuff.
    Here's where things get weird again. I imported this stuff under the name "old", but all of these folders have a red negative sign on them, marking them as restricted. So, from my main admin account, I cannot even peruse these folders. Since I didn't import user data, I can't sign in to the "old" account to change permissions. I already tried to change the permissions from system preferences, but that didn't change anything. And now, for whatever reason, of all the apps that were imported then, MS Office is the only set of apps that does not work. When I click on it, it just says there was a problem and asks if I'd like to send a report to apple. I tried reinstalling it to no avail. I'm an English student, so i really need access to Word. Can anyone help? The Apple store is a major detour for me and would like to fix this issue myself.

    Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
    Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
    Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
    NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
    LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

  • If my charging cable doesn't work do i get a new for free

    if my charging cable doesn't work do i get a new for free

    I had a lightning cable, that came with my iPhone 5s, that frayed and broke at the connector.  I took the cable and phone into the Apple Store and they exchanged the cable for a new one with not a question asked.  Good experience.
    I think part of it is that the design of the Apple cables is quite flimsy especially at the connector and I think they see a lot of them fail.

  • Updated to OS4 and now my phone doesn't work!!

    Updated my phone to the new OS4 and now my phone doesn't work. It says I have to do a system restore for it to work. If I do a system restore won't that erase all of my photos? Is there anything I can do so I won't lose any of my infomation? I have tons of photos on my phone. If anyone could help me out, I would be grateful.
    When I turn the phone on it shows a picture of the usb cable and the itunes logo. I don't want to do a system restore if I don't have to. I don't want to lose my pictures. HELP Please!!

    That is one lesson we all have to learn. Backup. Did you backup your iphone regularly? If you did, your photos will backup with it and the restore will put it back on the phone. If you didn't, I am sorry to say that there is probably no way to get those precious moments back. I found that out the hard way years ago. I now learned to backup my computer and iphones at least once a month.

    I used disk permission repair to try to resolve this as well as a 'soft' restart. Still have a grayed-out mute checkbox in the sound section of system preferences.

  • I just upgraded the software on my iphone 4s and now the touchscreen doesn't work and i have the itunes logo an arrow and a plug on my screen

    I just upgraded the software on my iPhone 4s. Now the touchscreen doesn't work and on the screen is the itunes logo, an arrow and a plug. I have powered it off and on and nothing changes

    The iTunes icon and cable means that it's gone into recovery mode - you will need to connect the phone to your computer's iTunes and you should be able to use that to reset the phone, and you can then restore/resync your content to it

  • I upgraded to Yosemite and my outgoing email doesn't work.  What to do?

    I upgraded to Yosemite and now my outgoing email doesn't work.  What should I do?

    Try removing the email account in Mail's preferences. Then re-configure a new account with the correct information. Be sure you know what that information needs to be for your account.
    You can also just check your outgoing mail setup and be sure it's correct.

  • I mashed the buttons and now my L200P doesn't work!

    Hi guys,
    I recently bought a second-hand ThinkVision L200P. I installed it behind a large sheet of glass, which seems to have had the unfortunate effect of pressing all the buttons at once for an extended period of time, and now my L200P doesn't display an image.
    I opened up the L200P case (it's second hand) and took out the little 'button bar' PCB to make sure none of them were stuck in. By pressing the little switches on the PCB, I see the following behaviour:
    Upon pressing the power button, I see the 'IBM Thinkpad' splashscreen for a moment, then it disappears. I think it used to then say 'Power Saving mode' but it doesn't anymore.
    Upon presssing and holding the menu button for 10 seconds, I get the message 'Menu Locked'. If I press and hold for a further 10 seconds, I get 'Menu Unlocked'. The text is clear and bright green
    None of the other buttons appear to do anything, even after pressing them many times and holding them for long periods
    Powering on while holding 'left' and 'right' arrows does nothing
    Holding 'right' arrow without any connectors in does nothing
    My hunch is that mashing the buttons has somehow, say, turned down the brightness and contrast and locked the menu or something. But I don't know how to undo it.
    What should be my next step? Like I said I've opened the case, so I'd be happy to 'hard reset' the unit by shorting a jumper or something.
    Regards,
    Richard.

    Lcd screen are not consumer serviceable parts.......... it is not like a laptop. There is no hard reset in LCD monitors like you are suggesting. You would need a new PCB from somewhere, you could try to source a broken L200p and salvage that part, but other than that there is little you can do.
