When I plug my ipad in to charge its just coming up with a red bar in the charge icon and not charging

When i plug in my ipad to charge its just coming up with a red bar in the recharge icon and not charging.... what does this mean and how can it be fixed... checked all cables, not broken

First make sure you are using the charger that came with the iPad and plug that into a good wall outlet. When the iPad battery is completely drained it may take some time on the charger before the iPad responds. Be patient and let the iPad remain on the charger for at least an hour then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the iPad restarts let it continue to charge until the battery is at 100%. If the iPad does not restart Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

How can I restore my data from iCal? I didn't make any backup, but I use time machine with an external HD. I deleted iCal when I deleted my gmail account. I have tried to restore, but I can only restore the iCal software and not the data.

So what is your question?
If you forgot your encryption password:
Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.

Anybody sell the Mac Pro and not charge tax?

Anybody sell the Mac Pro and not charge tax?

I concur. Expercom is probably THE best place to buy a Mac - other than directly from Apple - of course.
I ordered my new 8 Core Mac Pro on Thursday with just standard shipping. It is scheduled to arrive some time today. I got it with 4GB's of Ram for $2770, no tax and only 1 cent shipping.
Good Luck on your purchase!

The battery icon says "Not Charging" and the light on the charger isn't lighting up either?

I fell while my macbook was in my bag. It was already dead but when I went to put the charger in it wouldn't light up. To my surprise it still turned on but it said "(Not Charging)". I unplugged it multiple times and reset the PRAM and everything and it's still the same. It's as if I always need my macbook to be plugged in for it to work and not charge at all. Is it the internal battery? What else could I possibly do to resolve the issue?

Try taking the battery out and looking at it. If you don't see any visible damage, put it back in and see if taking it out fixed the problem.

Charging : haven't used my ipad for over 6 months and when I plug it to charge (wall charger) it just doesn't : any idea as to what the issue is and what I should do?

Hello
I haven't used my ipad for over 6 months and when I plug it to charge (wall charger) it just doesn't charge anymore : any idea as to what the issue is and what I should do?

If the battery has been drained completely dry it will take 20 minutes or more for it to indicate that it is actully charging!

My MacBook Pro blacks-out when I plug in any USB device. It then doesn't start up until I open the bottom casing and reconnect the battery connector and start it up again. Why is this happening and how do I fix it?

what could be the possible causes for this?
Also, when it is at its blackout stage, the macbook charger flashes dim orange lights.

Apple Does Not recommend that. Please Read.

From that article
"Portables with built-in batteries"
Current Apple portable computer batteries are pre-calibrated and do not require the calibration procedure outlined in this article. These computers use batteries that should be replaced only by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.

Apple recommend calibrating the battery when you buy a new Macbook and then every few months, or monthly if it used on mains all the time. This, as Apple says is to keep the battery operating at maximum efficiency. When the battery discharges and shuts the macbook down, it still has reserve power for a good number of hours. There is also a logic board battery to hold various settings.
I rather think I will take Apples advice on using their equipment not yours, but I would be intrigued to discover what is it you know that Apple doesnt about its batteries?

Need help with G450 battery: Stuck at 0%, claims 9x% and not charging

Okay, there have been a couple similar posts but they don't provide a definitive answer so I am going to ask again.
A few days ago, I put my computer in sleep mode with a low battery. When I woke it up, it froze and I had to force shutdown. Since then, whenever I unplug the computer, it loses power instantly, indicating that the battery is not powering it. However, my system can still tell when the battery is inside or not. When it is inside, it tells me I have "97% available (plugged in, not charging)", where the 97% slowly decreases over time (at first I had 99%).
What is the problem here? How do I solve it? The "plugged in not charging" issue seems to be fairly common, but the fact that my battery is drained and the way that I got to this point seem somewhat exceptional. If it comes down to buying a new battery, that is not a problem - I could use the extra battery life, and they're pretty cheap.
SPECS: I am using Windows 7 on a Lenovo G450 and do not appear to have Lenovo Power Management software. My AC adapter appears to work just fine.
Solved!

hi serpinium,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
Based from your findings, I suspect a faulty battery.
-- it's possible that the battery circuit inside is not working to unload the charge, or one of the battery already reached its life span.
-- there's also a chip inside that handles how the battery gets charges and checks the charge level of each battery (both are controlled by a firmware) -- ti's also possible that this chip is malfunctioning.
Batteries degrade overtime due to heat and daily use. If you had this battery for more than a year then perhaps it's time to get a replacement battery.

When i want to return to my home page I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want how can I stop this as i have too many tabs open.

When I want to return to my home page after looking at a website I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want.How can I stop this as I have too many tabs open and have to close all of them.

You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that flush the tab?
Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior.

Hi Lindsay0810,
If you are having charging issues with your iPad, you may find the following article helpful. In particular, if you are having recurring beeps from your iPad when charging, you may want to check you cable connections and possibly try another cable/charger if available to see if the issue persists.

Why when i plug my ipad in to chargr it says not charging

when i plug my ipad in to charge it says not charging how do i charge it

About the iPad Battery - http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html.
Charging the iPad battery - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4060.
They recommend you use the wall charger, not the computer and the cable, as many computer USB ports, are not 2.0 USB ports, and therefore are not powerful enough to charge the iPad. See the article entitled "Charging the iPad Battery"

Charging Tips
The quickest 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. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode. 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.

When I plug my iPad into a wall circuit and leave it for 18 hours the battery level only goes from 55% to 66% and then it quotes charging. Is this normal or do I have trouble with my adapter, it is the one that came with the iPad?

When I plug my Ipad into a wall circut it will not fully charge, It only charges up to 66% does anyone no why?

I can't tell you why it is doing this but it should not take anywhere near that long to recharge.
Try another power adapter if you have access to one - borrow one from a friend, try another wall socket, another cable ... take it to an Apple Store and let them try to charge it for you.
You can try resetting the iPad and see if that helps but I have my doubts - but it will not hurt anything either.
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.
Your battery gauge may be giving you an incorrect reading - but I think that would be a long shot as well. How many hours of use do you get at 66%?
You can read this about the iPad battery and how to maintain and care for the battery. .

Use Your iPad Regularly
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

When I plug my iPad Air in, it doesn't pick up the charger being plugged in.

When I plug my ipad air in, it doesn't pick up the charger until I move the plug around a few times, and when I let it go, it doesn't pick it up anymore.
ive tried using a different brand charger, and I'm now back to using the one that came with an iPod that I got a few months before the iPad.
the charge cord works perfectly fine on the iPod but doesn't work on the iPad.
this has been happening for a few weeks and it's getting really frustrating.
please help.

Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.
