Volume bar missing and accesory may not be supported
I am using Iphone 4, the volume bar is missing, and from 2-3 days when I plug the dock it says accessory may not be supported, when I adjust the dock cable it shows charging but actually charges very very very slow and after some time it again shows accessory may nor be supported . I have already cleaned the dock, Help. Is this the problem of dock, should I get it replaced..?
Try to use the Apple USB cable that came with the phone and connect it directly to the adapter. if this works, the problem is your dock.
If it is still not charging correctly, you should get it checked by an Authorized Appel Service Provider or Apple Store:
iPhone - Contact Support - Apple Support
Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10 sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?
You will not lose data by resetting, but it can clear some glitches.

My iPad Air is not charging. I have it plugged into an electrical outlet with the charger it came with. The battery icon keeps changing from green to white and a message...Accesory May Not Be Supported keeps coming up on the screen. I just purchased it on March 1, 2014 and this is very annoying.
you are using the cable and charger that came with it?
you have charged successfully with them before?
you are under warranty, so I suggest you make an appointment with a genius at the Apple Store and have them look at it. Sometimes the charger plug is faulty. -

For Christmas, my older sister got me a portable charger for my iPod. I'm not sure if it was capable with apple products, but it charged my iPod when I used it. My brother came upstairs and took my portable charger from me, so I went to go use my wall charger. The wall charger I have has always worked and it charges my mom's iPhone, so the problem I have isn't my charger. After I plugged my iPod in my charger, a message popped up saying "This accessory may not be supported". I was confused because this never has happened before, so I tried my portable charger after I got the message. The portable charger didn't charge my iPod anymore apparently after I tried my charger. All this happened the day after Christmas, so it's almost been a month without my iPod charging properly. My iPod does charge, but only when I plug it in halfway and am about to turn it all the way off. The only way I get it to charge is when I plug it in real fast as soon as I turn my iPod completely off. I've also restarted my iPod, cleaned out the charging area, asked people at stores that work with technology, and etc, so if someone could help me resolve this problem that would be legit because I use my iPod on a daily basis.
That message is usually due to a bad cable.

Three days ago, my iPhone 4 started sporadically displaying this message when I plugged my authentic apple iPhone charger in: "This accessory may not be supported." I was dismissing it, until my battery was nearly dead and I finally realized that when the message would come up the charging would stop.
Somehow, last night, I got it to begin charging on my Macbook and although it stopped a few times, got it back to 95%.
Now, it happens every time I plug it in to charge and it WILL NOT charge.
Details:
I am using genuine apple chargers. The one that came with my iPhone and the one that came with my iPad.
I am using outlets that work.
I have tried charging on my Macbook and receive the same message.
I am on IOS 7.1.1
The battery seems to be draining faster than usual.
It seems like when the battery gets low enough (<5%), it will charge again, at least a little bit, without the message popping up?
I tried to make a genius bar appt. but the next one isn't until next Tuesday! Eek. I cannot afford a new phone right now, and I am really hoping there is a way to fix this. If there is anything I can do at home to isolate the problem, or reduce what could end up costing a lot I would greatly appreciate your help.hi, try all what these guys say, as they make sense (my bet is on a slug of kebab guys ).
you list bits you have tried but don't say if you have tried a new lead?
i'm not being tricky, as an electronics engineer of some 40+ years who repairs consuls, iPhones, iPads etc. i have some experience of what gets overlooked. Some of the cheap after market leads aren't the best quality,and some darn right lethal, likely to catch fire while your asleep. you might have bought of them.
i find it tends only genuine Apple leads lock in, but there might be fakes of them to. either way worth a go. perhaps se if your family or mates have one.

When I want to play music out loud the volume bar disappears and it won't play music or any sound. This sometimes happens with head phones in aswell. How do I fix it? I have tried to reset settings and wipe all the data of it but it didn't work.help!
Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
Let us know how you get on. -

When opening iTunes on my new Windows 7 PC I continue to get the same messages, 'The program can't start because AVFoundationCF.dll is missing' and 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Error 7 (Windows error 126)' I've uninstalled and reinstalled many times to no avail, even tried it on a different user account and still nothing. I recently installed Panda Internet Security 2012 (about 12 days ago), initially iTunes worked fine as usual but within the last few days I've been unable to open it with the same messages appearing. I've read through some of these pages and tried everything that's been advised, uninstalling and reinstalling while internet and laptop security is swithched off, downloading tools to completely remove anything related to iTunes, tried it in Safe Mode, nothing has worked. I've also noticed that in the start menu when I click on iTunes, it says '(empty)' where it should have the logo and ability to start the program, does this mean it doesn't download + install properly each time I've tried? Any help would be enormously appreciated.
Doublechecking. Have you also tried the following user tip?
Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates -
My iPhone 5s (16GB) is stuck with 3948 photos (shown on the iTunes storage bar) on and I can not find a way to delete them all! It's very annoying as it takes up 6.54 GB of space and leaves me no room to add films, music...etc on to it. Please help me!!! I have already tried the numerous articles Apple have sent my way and I am still having no luck.I'd be eternally grateful if anyone could find a solution for me as this has been a problem for almost a year. Thank you.
If they were put there via iTunes sync process, then simply untick the Music box before syncing again.

Accessory may not be supported error and charging issues with iphone4
Hello,
From past 2 weeks my Iphone4 (say A) keeps throwing error message "Accessory may not be supported" and doesn't charge the iphone after couple of minutes of charging. This happens when device is connected (for charging) to power outlet or to computer (USB port). I tried multiple original iphone/apple cables. The same cable allows me to copy pictures from this device/Iphone4 when connected to computer via same USB cable, but the device/iphone4 does not charge. The same cable and charger charges my other Iphone4 (say B) perfectly fine.
I am really frustrated as to why this is happening.
Searching on internet, it seems lot of people are facing this problem with their iphones and ipad devices and refer this issue as a software bug, which I also seem to think. How can it be the hardware issue when same charging port and same cables allows you to copy your pics etc. from your iphone device to your laptop but does not allow you to charge the same device? Same charging cable works with my other iphone4 and i tried multiple cables so I dont think it's a cable issue.
Any help is appreciated. I was expecting apple products to be better in quality but lately I have seen this issues quite often.
-RPMake sure you are using an Apple approved charger and cable. The best would be the charger and cable that came with the iPhone in the original box.

Since updating to iOS 7.0.4 I've getting a prompt "this accessory may not be supported" after a few minutes charging.
Charging then stops and I've unplug the cable and reconnect, then hopefully get another 5 minutes before the message appears again. The phone is pretty much unusable now as I can't get it charged. Only using genuine apple cables (have tried 3 seperate cables) and have tried charging both via the wall and the laptop, but the result is the same.Yes Doctor9fan. All Accessories are genuine.

Hi MonsoonMally,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
>>'Element is currently not visible and so may not be interacted with', when playing back a CodedUI capture for a particular button selection function (captured in IE) and played back in Firefox.
Based on your issue, I suggest you can try to use the
DrawHighlight Method /SetFocus() to check if the correct control is found before you perform actions on the target control.
If the above suggestion could not help you, since this cross browser testing is involved to the Extensions tool
Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing, this extension tool is
out of support range of this forum.
