Why WiFi so bad when charging iPad 4?

Why is it that when my iPad 4 (64 GB, wifi only) has a ****** Internet connection when the charging cable is in?
It only bothered me THIS much, and I must say.. It's not like the lightning connected is some kind of Ethernet cable of some sort.
I have the latest updates, I have 6.1, it did the same on 6.0... Please, Apple. Internet is important these days..
Thank you!

You may have a faulty lightning cord. Take it back to Apple and get a new one.

Recently, when charging iPad, the display blinks, alerts and no charging. I changed cable with no joy. BTW: OS7 upgrade on iPad 2 was fairly benign.

Recently, when charging iPad 2 the display flashed and charging alert repeats. Reset, changed cable and still no joy.

Fixed problem - easy. Also OS7 upgrade on iP2 a snap and nothing too weird. All is well.

Why mac pro shuts down when idle, even when charging ipad?

why mac pro shuts off when idle, even while charging ipad?

My boyfriend has the same settings but I can charge my ipad with no interruption on his macbook Pro and it doesn't shuts off when idle. Thanks for your help

When charging ipad is it normal that ipad sort of vibrates slightly?

When I charge ipad it vibrates ever so slightly and when I touch its surface below it feels a bit like when you get an electric shock, a very mild elctric shock. I'm worried if this is normal or maybe ipad has a fault. Please help.

None of my iPhone chargers behave like my iPad charger, likely because the iPhone charger is a switch-mode design that completely isolates AC input from DC output. So if you're feeling a tingle on your iPhone when using a standard-issue iPhone charger, then it could be defective. Do you have friends with iPhones such that you could borrow their charger to see if it behaves the same? If another's charger doesn't cause this, then replace yours just to make sure its not a safety issue.
Note that the USB port on your computer and PS3 are completely isolated from their AC input, so that's why you won't feel this when charging with those devices.

Charging brick hot when charging iPad 2

I have access to an iPad 1, 2 & 3.
When charging the iPad 2, the apple brock and a third party charger both get quite hot. When charging the 1 & 3, the chargers stay cool to the touch.
Could there be a problem with the iPad 2?

It does not sound normal. I suggest yopu take it Apple and allow them to check it out.
When you take it to Apple begin your charger and cable.

Average Percentage 1 When charging ipad

Hi, i would like to know how long the ipad tkaes to go up one percent when charging WHILE IN USE and when i say in use i mean on and using an app such as temple run
thanks

The quickest way (and really the only 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 (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). 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.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

Why does iPhone beep when charging

My iPhone continues to beep when charging....can anyone tell me how to stop the beeping

When you say "beep" you mean the sound it makes right after you plug it in? If so, you might have a faulty cable or USB port, so your iPhone will beep everytime it gets disconnected and reconnected to the computer. If it's not that, try to describe the sound. Is it similar to what other sounds on iPhone system?

Plug gets hot when charging iPad mini

Hi, I charged my new iPad mini for the 1st time today, for just over an hour. It reached 50% and the plug felt dangerously hot. Is this a fault with the charger which was supplied with the mini or the mini iPad? Has anyone else experienced this issue? Why is it happening and is it dangerous?
Thank you

Does WiFi stay connected when charging iPhone

I've noticed lately that when I wake my iPhone from standby when it is plugged into a power source (charger or usb on my computer) that the WiFi connection is already there (the phone has been on standby overnight in the case of the charger). I get the impression that the iPhone is maintaining the WiFi connection when it has external power, but have not seen any references to this behavior. I have noticed this since at least 3.1, don't remember if earlier or not.
My iPhone is up to date with OS 3.2.1.
This is not a problem, just curious if anyone else is seeing this behavior?

Just wanted to throw what I have seen in. I have an AEBS in my house. When my phone is in low power mode with screen dark and I wake it up, the symbol moves from 3G to Wi-fi symbol. When I open my Airport Utility, it shows me the number of users. Unless I actually have Safari on the iphone open and running, it only shows one user (my MBP). When I open Safari on my iphone, then I show 2 users. If I close Safari, it moves back to one user...

Why is itunes crashing when syncing iPad in Windows 7?

When syncing my iPad via iTunes using Windows 7 Professions (SP1)... iTunes crashes repeatedly. This just started. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

I deinstalled-reinstalled. Problem persists. I get the error message: "iTunes has stopped working. Windows will close program & notify me if solution available". I checked Microsoft's support site but didn't find anything. I'll check again. Thx for the help.

Charging iPad 3

Is it necessary to keep brick attached to plug when charging ipad 3 or can I just plug in the detachable part? If so, why does it come with a big brick?

Unless you have USB ports for wall outlets in your house, you will very much need the big brick.
Also plugging it into a computer USB port will in most circumstances not provide enough power to charge the iPad either.
So yes you need the brick.
The 5W charger will not correctly charge the iPad 3 , as it requires more power than it can provide..

Macbook Pro lags when charging.

My Macbook Pro seems to lag very badly when charging since I updated to Yosemite a day ago.
But on the contrary it runs smoothly when unplugged.
I thought it was supposed to be other way around?
I am puzzled.
My specs:
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011)
2.8 GHz i7
4GB RAM
Intel HD3000

Hi , I am basically having the same problem.
I downloaded Yosemite Beta 3 few weeks ago, and this same problem occurred. I wasn't able to do anything with the laptop as it loads all the time. I contacted Apple and they told me I should restore from my backup which enables it to get back on Mavericks. When the official Yosemite was launched, I installed it, and now it has the same problem. The laptop lags like crazy everytime the charger is plugged in. I am unable to Skype, watch a movie, browse the internet, open an App or even type a document while the laptop charges. Im not sure of the solution, but will try calling apple again. Safest bet is to downgrade to Mavericks by backup i guess. Oh yeah, i have about 150+ Gb memory but when i checked dick utility it shows I have 18.6 mb free space and the other 36 GB.
Specs:
MacBook Pro Early 2011
13 inch i5
4GB Ram

I just get the new iPad air and when connecting it to my laptop, why the battery is not charging?

just get the new iPad air and when connecting it to my laptop, why the battery is not charging?

A lot of computers don't provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.

Is it bad to charge your iPad when there is like 30% left ?

Is it bad to charge your iPad when there is like 30% left ?

Question: What is a "charge cycle"?
Answer: Lithium-ion batteries can be charged a finite number of times, as defined by charge cycle. A charge cycle means using all of the battery's power, but that doesn't necessarily mean a single charge. For instance, you could use to your iPad for a few hours one day, using half its power, and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as one charge cycle, not two, so you may take several days to complete a cycle. Each time you complete a charge cycle, it diminishes battery capacity slightly, but you can put your iPad's battery through many charge cycles before it will only hold 80 percent of its original battery capacity.
Don't worry about it, since the battery will take 1000s of charge cycles.
The quickest way (and really the only 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 (5W).

Why does my ipad not work properly when charging

when my ipad is plugged to charger it does not work properly goes crazy

Not sure what 'goes crazy' means but it most likely should not do that. Try a reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Also try it plugged into another outlet (on another circuit) and/or try another charger.
