USB cable no longer fits into iPad.

My USB cable, which came with the iPad, no longer fits into the slot.  What do I do now to recharge my iPad?

Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any dust or debris.
Use a magnifying glass to examine the iPad's connector and the cable connector. May be a bent pin or the connector wraparound may be dented. If your iPad is in a case, take it out of the case.

  • I have an older ipod classic that is a 40gb & the usb cable will not fit into my usb port to my new computer, can i get a different one that will work?

    CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME OUT WITH THIS IMMEDIATELY???

    That font color is almost unreadable, please use another.
    Your iPod Classic almost certainly is not USB, but FireWire
    USB
    FireWire
    I know this because the USB (type A) socket has not changed since it came out and early iPods were FireWire, not USB>

Now trying to work with my Mac. I have a USB cable, both ends fit, but iMovie '11 does not recognize it. Is there a driver fix for this?

    What kind of Mac to you have?  This camera is a tape based DV one that connects best with firewire and I cannot tell if your Mac has firewire.  If your mac *does* have firewire, get a camcorder firewire cable and try again.
    ETA:  Oops, I am pretty sure that all the "desktop iMacs" have firewire, so you should be good to go.  You will probably need a cord that goes from FW800 to your camcorder.

  • The charging cable now longer fits all the way in the charging port.  I can't see if any lint is in there, but if there is how can I get it out?

    Go to the Music section of your Library (very top-left corner) and see if your songs are there. The "Purchased" playlist may have been deleted or gotten corrupted, but if that happens it's not a big deal because your music should still be in your main Music Library.
    If your music is NOT in the Music section of your Library, then go to the iTunes Store homepage and find the Quick Links list on the right side. At the top of that list, click Purchased and you can redownload all of your previous content that you might have lost.

  • Dented ipod, USB cable doesn't fit :S

    HELP! I dropped my ipod and the bottom has a dent in it and the USB cable won't fit in, will cost money to have it fixed at the apple store? Or will I have to get a new back??? please reply thanks.

    If the store can "bend" the iPod case back, they will only exchange the iPod for refurbished one. The price will be:

  • Cable doesn't fit into back USB ports

    My front USB port isn't working...everytime I plug a cable into it I get a message that reads "Power Surge on Hub Port" and it won't connect. My ports in the back are functioning, but I cannot connect my iPOd into them because the cord doesn't fit. Is there something I can buy (like a mini extension cord) that will connect them?
    Please help I am so frustrated. thanks!

    thanks so much for your help...
    I'm using a Dell Computer (it has Optiplex GX270 written on it) with Windows XP. If you need more info just tell me where to find it.
    Even when I plug in a USB cable (one that isn't connected to a device), the message still appears. The iPod connector does fit in the front, but not the back ones. I know the back ones work because I plugged a camera into one in the back and it worked, (it didn't in the front).
    I would just use the back ports for my iPod too but the cable is a little different and won't work. I think there is excessive plastic on the connector?

  • WD My Book 1 TB External Hard drive firewire cable won't fit into Mac Pro

    Hi the firewire cable that came with my Western Digital My book External Hard Drive won't fit into my Quad Core Mac Pro. Is it the wrong cable? What's the correct cable that would connect my Western Digital External Hard Drive into my Quad Core Mac Pro? Any help is greatly appreciated

    If you have a port that looks like this one, it's FW400. If it looks like this one it's FW800. If you have one of each it supports both. If you don't have either then it's USB only.

  • Is the 30 pin conector usb cable that comes with the ipad the same that comes with the iphone?

    Hi
    Recently I've try to charge mi iPad 3er gen. with the usb cable 30 pin that comes with the iPhone 4S (original) via my MacBook Air, but when I had plug it into the usb port, my iPad started to make like repetitive sounds (charging, not charging sounds) and  iTunes dont recognized the ipad, I was worried, so I disconnected the cable and tried it with the same that comes with my iPad and works fine, I am thinking that the usb cable from my iPhone is damaged or something, but i want to know, from the experience that some of you would have, if this is right or wrong.
    Thank you so much.

    Yes ur probably best to charge your iPad with the supplied iPad charger some laptops don't have enough grunt to charge the iPad if it does the charging may be slow

  • USB cable will not plug into my 6555.

    The USB cable that came with my 6555 will Not plug into the phone. It seems to be slightly too big. The Nokia Accessories page lists CA-101 as the right one (for $30.00). However, the cable that came in the box has no designation so I cannot confirm the right cable was packaged. I bought this phone at Best Buy and there is no reference on their web site for a USB cable accessory. I do not want to order a $30 part to replace one that was mis-packaged. Does anyone have experience with these micro-USB cables and can confirm which is the right one and where to obtain one? Regards.  
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    As promised here is my follow up.
    I went to Best Buy and talked to the sales team lead. The cable that was packaged in the 6555 box has a *mini* USB connection.  The pjone requires a *micro* USB connection. So, my assessment that the cable end  would not fit was accurate. The box was missing a small adapter that converts the mini cable end to a micro cable end.  He offered to sell me a universal USB cable with the adapter included for half the listed retail price.  I paid $8.00. (better than the $30 for a CA-101 from Nolia).
    The adapter fits the 6555 USB port. I tried both the universal cable and the Nokia cable to link to 2 of my PCs (w/ Win XP) after installing the Nokia PC Suite. Neither worked. It seems that the PC does not recognize that the phone is there. I know there are other posts with related issues on this forum. So I will drop this thread and search for answers to the latest problem.
    Thank you to all the folk who have shown an interest here and posted your thoughts / suggestions.. Regards, Bryan

  • Sennheiser earphone jack will not fit into iPad Air with protective case on

    i have sennheiser earphones and the jack will not fit into my iPad Air with the protective leather case on. The earphone jack is too large. Does anyone know if there is some kind of adaptor I can attach to the jack so it will fit?  Or perhaps know of another solution?

  • ATV Update fail. What USB cable actually can plug into the back of this device?

    My 3rd Gen ATV suffered a failed update over the weekend and now only shows a screen implying that I connect it to iTunes however none of the USB cables I can find will plug into the narrow slot at the back. Where do I get a cable from that can plug use to reset my ATV?

    What's on the other end of the USB cable? Your keyboard or mouse?

  • IPad 3 USB cable doesn't fit flush in back...normal?

    I notice when I plug the USB cord into my new iPad 3, it's flush in the front but not in the back. In the back, you can see part of the metal sticking out. Is this normal?
    Hard to believe Apple would not create a better-fitting cord for the iPad's sloped design...so I figured I'd ask. Worried I might harm my iPad with a defective cord.

    No, it is perfectly fine.  The iPad 2 is the same way, along with almost all the iPod Touchs, and the first 3 iPhones if I remember correctly.  The reason is so that you can have one cable for the iPad, iPhone, and iPods.  Trust me, if you use the cable from your iPad box, it will look the exact same.  Nothing to worry about.

  • Nano 7th gen usb cord will no longer fit into my nano

    For some reason, my usb cord for the 7th gen nano won't fit. I charged it  a day ago with no problems.  I checked the cord and the nano for signs of damage, but could see none.  I would appreciate any help anyone can give about this issue.

    The headphone jack on the newer 6G Nanos is a bit tighter compared to previous generations.  It requires a bit of extra force to get them to fully insert.  You should hear a sort of popping/clicking when inserting the headphones letting you know the plug has been fully seated.

  • USB Cable no longer responding after iTunes update?

    I recently downloaded the iTunes update version 6.0.4 to my Dell Laptop. However, when I go to synch up my iPod, upon plugging in my iPod, I get a message from my computer that says "USB Device not recognized". I have tried the USB connection in numerous USB docks, however keep getting the same message. The iPod says "Do not disconnect" but it does not synch up with iTunes, even after I leave it there for about 10 minutes.
    I have downloaded then re-installed the iPod Updater Version 2006-01-10 and re-booted my computer but still the USB connection is not recognized.
    Any suggestions? Thanks!
