When my phone is not plugged into the charger or computer, it will not turn on at all; even though it is not dead. When it's plugged into the computer, it will go to a white screen with a grey apple icon and then it will turn off again and repeat. IOS7

Try this step and if you cannot get your device into recovery mode there is a chance you have a hardware failure and you need to call apple to see what service options you have.

HT4060 iPad will not charge if hooked by USB to pc or plugged into wall. How do I know if the problem is with iPad, cable or power adapter. I have a 12, 10 and 5W adapters no success with any. Only one lightening cable so can't swap cables.

I'm sorry but this is too funny to pass up.

Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

Is anyone else having an issue with the iPad not charging if you use it while it's plugged into a power source? Now that I'm on iOS 7, I either charge or use... Not both.

No problems here.
Edit...
My IOS-7 is on an iPod Touch.

IPhone4 will not turn on. Tried reboot with home button and power button, and tried with sim out. Left on charge for an hour and nothing. Tried plugged into PC and nothing. Tried holding any and all buttons one at a time and plugging into PC and nothing.

Hi,
This is for my wife's iPhone 4
She was on a call and went to end the call and the phone just turned off.
Left it on charge for an hour or so and nothing.
I tried the old reboot (home button and power button) and nothing
I tired with the sim out.
And with it plugged into a PC, opened iTunes and it didn't recognize that the phone was plugged in.
I tried my PC and nothing.
My phone charges and connects to both PC's
Tried holding the home button then plugging into PC
Tried holding the power button then into PC
I've now been trying different combinations for about 3 hours and now I'm all out of ideas.... :(
Please please can some help before Tuesday when I will have to find someone to repair it.
Thanks,

Sounds like faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take to Apple for quick (minutes) free battery diagnostic testing. If you have Warranty or AppleCare the problem will be covered.

HT4060 My iPad Mini and My iPhone 4s stopped charging when plugged into and outlet. On the same day and i've tried numerous adapters . It will charge when turned off only or plugged into a computer

My iPad Mini and my iPhone 4s stopped charging on the same day when plugged into an outlet if they are turned on. My phone charged as long as it was turned off and it will charge when pluged into an USB port,
Anyone else have this problem?

IPhone: how to charge the battery when in Europe.

I'm going to Germany for 6 months, and I will most certainly be taking my iPhone. The only thing I'm not sure about it is will I need a Power Converter Adaptor to plug into the wall with a Plug Adaptor? Or will I only need to use the Plug Adaptor?
Someone told me that the iPhone has the capability to automatically switch over the power conversion from US to European without the Converter Adaptor Plug, so that I only need a plug to fit the German Sockets.
Can anyone clear this up for me? I don't want to fry my iPhone!

And if you want to be really cool -- you can get the Apple international adapter kit from the apple store and just slip on the appropriate plug right onto your charger brick -- I have a set that I use constantly, and they interchangeable on the iPod/iPhone charger brick, as well as the Macbook, Macbook Pro, and other charger bricks as well. Very handy.

I have an iPad 2 and today it would not turn on. It had an 80% charge and won't respond even to being plugged into a mac. It has never had any issues at all before 3:15 this afternoon. Please help.

Please help me fix my iPad. I need it tonight to finish multiple projects and I can't finish any of them without it. Please help.

press and hold the home and power buttons until the Apple icon is displayed, then let go.

My ipod touch will not turn on or charge, and there is NO WAY to find the serial number to sort it out

Does anybody know what I can do in this situation?
I've had the ipod touch for over 3 years, was given as a gift, has never been badly damaged or anything.
It just won't charge at all - I have tried leaving it plugged into the computer for hours, trying different cables. I left it plugged into the wall overnight, and still the dead battery icon is the only thing that comes up.
I have tried resetting and restarting it but nothing's happened. I've tried contacting Apple for support but they can't do anything without my serial number - which is too faded on the back of the product to make out. Obviously I can't find the serial number on the device as it won't turn on, I don't have any packaging for it left, and it won't connect to iTunes either. I've also looked at my devices in iTunes to try find it but it's not there.
Basically, I've tried pretty much everything the internet has suggested and it's not getting me anywhere.
I have no idea why this is happening and right now I'm at a deadend so please let me know if you have any further advice you can offer. Thank you!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

5G will not charge from wall adapter

My new 15 gig 5G will not charge from a 5 volt wall adapter.It charges fine on the USB port on my computers.
So I decided to take a USB extension and cut it an place a current meter in series with the 5 Volt on the USB line.What I found is that it will draw ~500ma with the data lines connected in the cable(in other words a normal cable). Now if I disconnect the data wires so that I am only connecting the 5 volts from the USB port it will draw ~100 ma for a second and then draw no current.It appears that some kind of handshaking is required. Is this normal?
As it is now I will not be able to ever charge it from a 5 volt supply.Do they do something to the data lines on wall adapters?

Well I finally got my "dumb" USB charger (a Belkin F8Z009 Power pack) to work with my iPod 5G 30GB. To wake up the 5G needs to see 2.5 volts on it's data lines. The easiest way to do this is with a voltage divider made with two equal resistors. Like this:
As a poof of concept I made the device below with four 30K resistors but anything from 10K to 50K should work fine.
A more compact wake up cable could be made by cutting into a standard USB male-female extension cable and soldering in four resistors like this:
Of course if your building your own or can get your "dumb" USB charger open then the resistor voltage dividers can go inside.

Can I use the Ipad Wall Adapter and my Iphone USB cord to charge my Iphone 5s?

I heard that the IPad wall adapter will charge an IDevice faster, so I was wondering if I used my IPads wall adapter and my IPhones USB cord to charge my IPhone 5s, will it be okay?

You are welcome. Knowing which chargers are interchangeable helps when traveling, I only carry the iPad charger now since it works fine with the iPhone. The other way around will not work, however. You cannot charge an iPad with an iPhone charger, the power rating is too low.

how can i ensure that when i copy a word document into the body of an email, it will arrive in the same format as it appears in the word document. mine arrive with distorted spacing. thank you!!

Sounds like the Word file may have right justification. You can turn that off within Word.
You can also save the file as a pdf using these instructions:

Is it okay to charge macbook air while playing a game and it is hot?

I use my macbook air for aging. Is it okay to charge it while I'm playing a game. It was really hot when I was charging it. Will it affect it any?

It is all right to charge your MBA any time you are using it, hot or not. See these authoritative article regarding Apple batteries for additional guidance:
