Why do third party chargers short out apple cables?

I have owned every single iphone since they came out, but with the iphone 5, I have found that iphone chargers have stopped working quite frequently to a point that they cant be used on any other device. But the device that plugs into the wall plug does work. I am beginning to feel that it has something to do with the use of any third party devices in any way used  with the iphone 5 S. My daughter and I both have iphone 5s and it only affects us, where it does not affect my other daughters 5c or my husbands 4S. We now have found that the charging case we bought for $80 to increase the charging capacity of the phone, that has a different non apple carging device, has caused her phone to not hold a charge or work with her apple cable.
Is this a 5s issue?
Any ideas?

You are a level 5 with replies like that?
Forgive me, I am not claiming to be the sharpest apple user but I have looked on non apple forums and found alot of info about the iphone 5 and its issues with chargers and third party cables, ect.I own a Honda pilot 2012 and after buying the iphone 5 my fully loaded system is incompatible, where the 4s worked fine. I took it in for service and Honda claims it is an apple issue. Apple claims not true.
There is a definite issue going on with apple phones and I think Apple is covering it up. I seems odd that in a family with 5 iphone users that the only people who have any issues with their phones, are the 2 people who are using the iphone 5. We have to use non apple plug ins to use with non apple devices like our bose system,car charger,and many other items, but never cheap crap sold at the cash registers of the store or mall. If more of this is not discussed on apples site then I guess I know that apple is covering it up and maybe its time to start looking for new products.

  • How do you turn third-party midi loops into Apple Loops?

    Does anyone know how to turn third-party midi loops into Apple Loops? I've got hundreds of short midi files that I purchased, and I would like to be able to use them in the loop browser of Logic Studio. I tried some of the obvious ways of doing this, like using Apple Loop Utility, but it doesn't seem to recognize .mid files. Seems like .mid files would be right up its alley, so maybe I'm doing something wrong...

    Yes, have the same problem but with wav loops. i have 75000 wav loops from third part and do not find how to "logicized" it. For the moment i can use them into a project but they are not adapting when i change the bpm of the projetc for exemple.
    If you know the solution i would be rescued

  • Should i use a third party charger or the apple charger

    for a white macbook

    Use a genuine Apple power adapter.
    Third party chargers use inferior parts and often bear fraudulent markings from consumer product safety agencies. Using them can be hazardous to you, your MacBook, and other property due to the potential for fire, electric shock, or damage as a result of exceeding the MacBook's power supply tolerances.
    It is very difficult to determine if a charger is an actual Apple product from an external inspection, and an internal inspection revealing its deficiencies destroys the adapter. If it's on eBay, it is very likely to be counterfeit.

  • DRG-11225: Third-party filter timed out

    Hello,
    I am facing the following problem when indexing a column:
    DRG-11207: user filter command exited with status 2
    DRG-11225: Third-party filter timed out.
    I am using Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0
    I have a column named URL in a table named DOCUMENTO_CONSULTA
    This column contains file URLs (2 rows involved in the test)
    I am confident that the paths that appear in the two rows of the URL column are correct (because if I change
    them to something different another error appear that says, as expected, that files could not be found). I am sure
    that access to the files is granted. FILE_ACCESS_ROLE is set to CTXAPP and role is granted to the user. File
    and path permission are set to 777.
    The two rows contains paths to simple DOC and PDF content, with just one paragraph each.
    I am using the following configuration:
    ctx_ddl.create_preference ('ajn_doc_cons_datastore', 'URL_DATASTORE');
    ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_doc_cons_datastore', 'urlsize', 1024);
    ctx_ddl.create_preference ('ajn_doc_cons_filter', 'AUTO_FILTER');
    ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_doc_cons_filter', 'timeout', 0);
    ctx_ddl.create_preference ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'BASIC_LEXER');
    ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'base_letter', 'YES');
    ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'index_themes', 'NO');
    ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'index_stems', 7);
    ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'index_text', 'YES');
    ctx_ddl.create_preference ('ajn_spanish_wordlist', 'BASIC_WORDLIST');
    ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_wordlist', 'stemmer', 'SPANISH');
    ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_wordlist', 'fuzzy_match', 'SPANISH');
    The sentence to create the index is:
    create index ajn_doc_cons_idx on documento_consulta(URL)
    indextype is ctxsys.context
    parameters ('LEXER ajn_spanish_lexer DATASTORE ajn_doc_cons_datastore FILTER ajn_doc_cons_filter WORDLIST ajn_spanish_wordlist ')
    I've tried changing URL_DATASTORE to FILE_DATASTORE (with no attributes) but the result is the same
    Here's the configuration I've set in /etv/environment:
    PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/mnt/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/bin:/mnt/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/ctx/bin"
    TMPDIR=/tmp
    ORACLE_HOSTNAME=--------- (my host name)
    ORACLE_BASE=/mnt/oracle/app/oracle
    ORACLE_HOME=/mnt/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1

    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mnt/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/ctx/lib:/mnt/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/lib
    If I try to use ctxhx from the console everything works OK and twoHTML files corresponding to the two rows are generated with no errors at all.
    I haven't found any relevant information in forums and docs. I don't have any more ideas, so any answer would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Ubuntu is not a supported platform for Oracle, so it's hard to answer this.
    However, if you want to try to debug it, replace the "ctxhx" executable with a shell script which dumps its arguments and the current environment to a file.
    You can then use that output to create a shell with the same environment, and see if command line ctxhx still works. If not, you'll have to figure out what the differences are between the two environments.

  • Has anyone else had a third party hi-jack their apple id?

    Has anyone else had a third party hi-jack their apple id? My apple id stopped recognising my password and I recieved an email saying that my password for apple id had changed. When I tried to sort it all apple said was "well, tough- you'll have to change your email."
    Now I'm having trouble getting all my apple products to talk to each other as they are on my old apple id which I dont have access to.
    All this has happened since updating to the new IOS and Iphone 5s which may be a coincidence but seeing as I'm having a load of niggles with the iphone 5s (which makes up its own mind as to which calls it'll let me answer amongst other things) I was just wondering if I'm a freak.

    Contact Apple Account Security. You will need to prove you are the owner of the Apple ID. This is a very serious problem, as your phone is activation locked to the compromised Apple ID, and if you ever restore or update the phone it will become useless. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

  • Damaged third party fixed iPhone out of warranty replacement

    Okay so the humidity or something yesterday made both my iPad 1 and iPhone 4s screens screw up.
    My camera lense fogged up and was all condensation-y so all pics were blurry.
    It looks like there is a smudge on the touchscreens. The iPad was typing and click stuff by itself. iPhone keyboard won't let me use the bottom keys in msgs and certain apps so the touchscreen is not responding. iPhone wake/sleep bottom was turning off and on and screenshoting.
    It was like the symptoms of water damage except I never dunked them in water or anything and the water damage indicators on iPhone aren't red. I don't know if iPad 1 has water damage indicators.
    So right that afternoon I passed apple store on george st, told me they were busy and I had to book an appointment for tommorrow.
    I put my iPad in rice last night and it's fine now... Just smudge on the touch screen.
    So today I bought my iPhone into the genius bar, hoping to get it fixed or replaced because it's not even 2 years old and if you argue enough the Australia consumer laws blah blah sometimes you can get an out of warranty replacement for free.
    By this time, the camera condensation has evaporated and sleep/wake button stopped spazzing but keyboard was still stuffed.
    They said they can't do anything, not even offer the $279 replacement, because when I cracked my screen I got it replaced by a third party.
    Said it was because the screen is non genuine that my iPhone is acting like this.
    Which it isn't, because my iPad also screwed up which has a genuine screen.
    Sorry about the essay.
    So how does apple tell if I got the screen fixed or not?
    Has anybody gotten apple to fix a third party screen replacement phone?
    If my iPad didn't start working again, would they have fixed it?

    The genuine Apple module has various identifying marks that are missing from a third-party part.  Apple will not attempt to repair an iDevice that was "fixed" by an end-user, or an unauthorized third-party.
    "If my iPad didn't start working again, would they have fixed it?"
    Your question is ambiguous but, if you mean "if my iPad failed - not due to accidental damage - and I returned it to Apple without having a third-party muck around with it, would Apple fix it?"  Apple has an out-of-warranty exchange (not repair) iPads, and you'll be charged for it.

  • Third party sales with out hitting the FI

    Dear SD gurus
    I have a requirement with one of my client.
    The client sends a PO to a vendor in Thailand plant from the Home country. The vendor in-turn manufacture's the materials from the PO and delivers it to the customer place and at the same time the vendor himself simultaneously sends the invoice to the customer and receives the payment. The requirement is that the client wants to track the sales process and also the reports relevant for the same but without hitting the FICO.
    They send only the Purchase order with the sales order created from the home country and nothing else they do with the SO.
    Kindly give me a solution to handle this requirement.

    Hi,
    For third party sap has provided TAS item category, wherein when you create a order, a PR will be created and then a PO.
    This PO will go to the vendor and who in turn send the goods directly to the customer.
    The vendor sends us the POD and invoice by which we can do the Goods receipt and invoice receipt in SAP.
    Now here with help of a MM resource you can map the scenario by which you can do the GR and also show the necessary accounting entries etc. with help of FI resource.
    I am not sure what approval process you are talking about...  Plz elaborate so that we can help you out.

  • Third Party Plugins Stripped Out After Editing/Saving

    Hello All,
    I'm really hoping someone can help.
    Ok here's the tech stuff:
    Workflow-
    Mac - OS 10.4.9, InDesign CS3 5.0.2
    Windows - XP InCopy CS3 5.0.2
    Plugins used in InDesign (Mac) AutoPrice (Meadows Pub.) & Sonar Indexing (Virginia Systems)
    These 2 plugins are vital to our Catalogs.
    What I'm seeing,...
    I export stories (copy blocks) in InDesign for editing in InCopy on the Windows Machine.
    I open up the same document in InCopy (windows) to test, edit some copy, save, check in, close.
    Now, open this same document again in InDesign (Mac), copy updates needed, update the copy, but wait! all of the Third Party Markers are gone!
    Everything that was tagged, or marked for the Index, and all the Pricing Tags are gone.
    I've found out when the InCopy document is saved, this is when this happens. It strips out all Third party invisible text, placeholders, etc...
    WHAT???
    I can't believe we're the only one's in the world having this issue. And its hard to believe Adobe would even do this.
    I've talked to both Plugin Companies about this, One thinks this is a Bug Issue on Adobe's end.
    The other, is trying to work out something to stop this from happening.
    Ok,... So we're ready to move to a InCopy workflow, but now this. I need HELP!
    We can't implement InCopy when it destroys our vital information,....
    Thanks for any help on this,
    Christopher

  • Using third party keyboards in native Apple apps on iOS 8

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 5S, running iOS 8(and recently installed 8.0.2).  I was excited about getting to use third-party keyboards, but for some reason it is not working for me.  For whatever reason, I can use these keyboards (I've tried many, all to the same effect) in other apps such as Chrome or Facebook, but on any of the native Apple apps (Notes, Reminders, but especially Messages and Mail where typing is most needed) I am unable to select them.  In fact, the little globe you click and hold to make the different keyboards come up isn't even on my keyboard.  I've looked around a little and tried some fixes (uninstalling and reinstalling, deleting all other keyboards, restarting the phone, turning off AssistiveTouch, etc.) but have had no luck.  Has anyone else experienced this, and more importantly, has anyone found a solution?  I was hoping the 8.0.2 might address it but nothing has changed.
    Thank you!

    I'm having the same issue. IPhone 5S has third party keyboards working in safari but not other apps (8.02). IPad with 8.02 has them working everywhere. Any ideas?

  • HT4098 HOW DO I ADD THIRD PARTY CONTENT PROVIDERS TO APPLE TV UNIT?

    I am trying to add "amazon prime" to my available third party content providers in my Apple TV, but I cannot find any place to do it?

    The only content providers you can use are those already licensed and contained in your Apple TV. At least this is the case for my Apple TV 2.

  • Why no third-party plug-in support?

    As a wedding photographer I have fallen in love with Lightroom for RAW editing, processing, and proofing, but when print orders come in I have to revert to Photoshop for access to my favorite plug-ins such as PK Sharpener and Noise Ninja. The third-party developers have stated that Adobe refuses to allow plug-ins to be added. This seems odd since Adobe permits them for Photoshop. What's the difference?

    <[email protected]> wrote in message <br />news:[email protected]..<br />> Be nice if Adobe could get the sharpening and noise reduction soooo cool <br />> in LR (from Raw to print), the need for third parties in these areas is <br />> not needed.<br /><br /><br />Sharpening in there.

  • Why do third-party keyboard apps have problems in Mozilla Browser for Android?

    I have a third-party app that I use as a keyboard: SwiftKey X. whenever I select this keyboard as my default and start typing, be it in text-fields on site itself or the adressbar, it never seems to get the text right. For example; it deletes words without me wanting to. Words get duplicated when trying to start new word. Suggestions get automatically inserted without being selected. But when I take the systems' default keyboard (Swype, I own a GT-N7000) than there's no problem. Does anyone know what could be going on?

    @AaronMT Aurora fixes the issue. And so does the nightly. I'm now typing using my SwiftKey app.
    Thanks for resolving! Also I think I might use Aurora as my default browser app. Thanks again, switching between keyboards drove me insane!

  • Is there a working 4gb kit out yet? (THIRD PARTY PLEASE, NOT FROM APPLE)

    is there ANYONE with a legit kit from a brand? there are too many conflicting stories of brands with people who say it works and doesnt work
    anyone have a real answer?

    etresoft, you may want to have a read through this thread. There are users who have bought from OWC and are having the freezing issue.
    I like OWC because they are Mac-only. You can just pick your Mac, select what upgrade you want, and you are guaranteed that it will work. Plus, the prices are just as good as anything you'll get from NewEgg.
    There are certainly other companies that are just as good, but many people have had very good experiences with OWC. Many people have had very bad experiences with eBay-types.
    That being said, there is nothing whatsoever about OWC memory that is different than any other brand of memory. It is all the same stuff. Some of it just comes from different suppliers with varying specs. OWC tries hard to make sure the components they buy will work in a Mac. NewEgg isn't going to do that. If there is a "bad batch" of RAM, you are just as likely to get it from OWC as anywhere else. But the same applies to Apple too. I would consider Apple's RAM and OWC's to be equivalent. They both buy from the same people. They both try to make sure it works in a Mac. Neither can be 100% successful. I just think you have a much higher chance of having good components if you buy from Apple or OWC than from anyone else. OWC just happens to be much cheaper than Apple.

  • Car charger, cant seem to charge my iPhone 6 in the car with third party chargers, they work other places and with other devices but not in car. Did I inadvertantly change a setting somewhere to deactivate the car charging?a

    CAr charging?

    That would be because the charger isn't putting out enough power to charge your Phone while in use.  Not all car chargers are created equal in terms of output.  After doing some research, I found there are some you can buy, but this one seems to be about the best option.  It's $15 and you can get it on Amazon.

  • Third Party Chargers

    So I have a BB charger that is 5V and .750A and it charges the Playbook (slowly, but still).
    I have a monoprice 2-usb port charger that is 5V/1A and while it charges everything else the Playbook won't charge (even if the other port is empty so all 1A is going to the PB).  Am I missing something?  I'm using the same BB supplied USB cord...
    Is there something unique I should be looking for in buying a cheap spare charger?  Lenmar says this won't work either http://www.lenmar.com/Web/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductID=ACUSB2K#, but I just don't get why...

    The 1A rating on that charger is likely false.
    Personally, I would advise you to purchase a non-usb rapid charger

    It doesn't use USB port, and saves on the wear on the USB port.
