  • Help!-wont charge- A USB driver has exceeded its power limits?!!?

    my iPhone charged just fine for the past two months, and now it only charges sometimes.
    I will plug it into the wall charger, and it will charge just fine, and then i'll go to charge it again sometime, and it just wont charge, so i tried to plug it into my macbook, and my imac, and they both said "a USB driver has exceeded its power limits, etc, etc." and so i tried my PC, and it gave me the same message. This has happened more than once, and eventually it just charges, but then the whole situation will repeat days later.
    I've called apple over 3 times, and no one has helped me. so...
    help??

    First, try a different cable. It may be shorting out causing the USB port to overload. Especially since it happens on two computers.
    If the cable is ok, try turning the iPhone off. This can be done by holding down the sleep and home buttons until the off slider appears. Then restart it.
    If this doesn't help, take it to an Apple store for assistance.

  • My iphone5 wont charge with usb port but works fine with wall plug... Infact computer. Doesn't recognizes the iphone

    Battery not charging with usb port but works fine with wall plug.. So the prob is computer is not detecting the iphone5 . This problem started after upgrading to 6.1.3 version

    Try to see what happens on another computer. If it works on another computer, the issue is not at the iPhone.

  • Zen Micro wont charge using USB

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me. I have just purchased a Zen Micro and a Zen Touch. The Touch works fine. My wifes micro on the other hand is not - there was no charger in the box. I was under the impression that it can also charge using USB, but my machine (which is quite old btw - P4 650mhz Gateway) does not recognise it. Is it a problem with my machines USB, or is it more likely to be a problem with the Micro? I have purchased a Charger which should be around in the next couple of days (thinking it may need to be charged using a charger on the initial charge).
    Any help would be appreciated,
    Thanks in advance,
    Steve

    Do you know what firmware your wife's Micro has? (Check System > Information from the Micro's main menu to be sure.) Also, what Windows version (and service pack, if any) do you use?
    Do you plan to use "to go" subscription services with the Micro? Current "to go" services include:
    FYE Download Zone (US only)</LI>
    HMV Digital (UK or Ireland)</LI>
    Napster To Go (US, Canada, or UK)</LI>
    Rhapsody To Go (US only)</LI>
    Virgin Digital (UK only; US version doesn't support "to go")</LI>
    Yahoo! Music Unlimited (US only)</LI>
    For the Touch, did you install the drivers from the CD, or download the latest drivers from here? You probably should download the new driver (unless you have 2.x Micro firmware with WinXP SP or 2) to be sure it will support the Micro too.
    Are you connecting the Micro directly to your PC, or thru a hub? If to the PC, is the USB connection you're using on the front or the back of the PC? It's best to connect to a USB jack on the back of the PC if possible, not to a front jack or hub (especially an unpowered hub which won't charge the Micro). It's also possible that the Micro has issues with your PC's USB configuration; you may need to buy a separate USB card (preferably USB 2.0--you probably have USB . jacks).Message Edited by RBBrittain on 09-05-2005 07:09 PM

  • My iPhone 5 is not recognized on any PC, wont charge by USB in PC either

    My iPhone 5 is not recognized on my PC w/ Windows 7, nor Windows 8. It does not charge while plugged into either computer, but it does charge when plugged into the wall! I tried uninstalling, downloading a new copy and installing iTunes on both PCs. There is no sound when I plug the iPhone into the computer. Device Manager does not have an entry for any Apple device anywhere. Am I screwed? There is one thing: I have not yet updated to the latest firmware, but I have been holding off because its been a long time since I backed the phone up. I'm really worried!!! Please help, I'm out of the 1 year warranty on it.

    Have you tried another USB phone cable?

  • HT5868 My iphone 5 with ios 7 stopped promting me to "trust this computer" and wont charge from USB ports now

    My iphone 5 with ios 7 stopped promting me to "trust this computer" 1 day ago after doing it everytime i plugged it in to a USB port on my work laptop. It will now no longer charge from any of the USB ports. The USB ports work fine on the laptop for other devices and my phone will prompt me and charge at any other computer in my office. I possibly hit do not trust by accident which may have caused this. I reset all settings on the phone and rebooted my laptop and none of this fixed the issue. Phone syncs and charges fine at home and there were no issues with my work laptop up until 2 days ago with prompts or charging. Any ideas??

    Hi,
    I'm new on this forum and with my iphone 5c.
    'Till some days ago I had a Windows Vista pc and when I connected the iphone, it was recognized.
    Yesterday I decided to change my SO in Linux Ubuntu 13.04 but now my iphone isn't recognized and I'm not able to use it.
    This message appears on my iphone
    "Trust This Computer? Your settings and data will be accessible from this computer when connected via USB or Wi-Fi. [Trust] [Don't Trust]"
    I clicked Trust but the iphone buzzes twice, then repeats the prompt. This will repeat endlessly.
    I read a lot about the bug, but is there any solutions waiting for the resolution of bug?
    I can't use my iphone!!!!

  • IPod Nano 1st Gen Wont Charge With USB Cable

    I just purchased a brand new 4 gb white 1st gen iPod nano. From the moment I took it out of the packaging and tried to charge it with the provided USB cable I noticed it was not working. No response at all, nothing was getting into the iPod. I tried multiple USB cables with equal luck.
    I have a Dension I.C.E Link Plus in my car, I figured I'd try it, sure enough the iPod Nano began charging and booted up. I finished charging it to a full charge in my car.
    After a few days of use, I went to charge my iPod via USB cable and when I plug it in, it connects to the computer I can transfer songs perfectly but it constantly states that the iPod is "charged" displaying the plug battery icon not the flashing thunder bolt. So I figured it was charged, when I unplugged it from the USB cable the battery meter was clearly not charged.
    So, I assumed it was my computer USB ports being messed up so I purchased a A/C Wall Charger Adapter. Once again it would only display "charged" so far the only thing that will charge my nano is my car.
    With the A/C wall charger I have even tried multiple cables with no luck.
    CAN SOMEONE HELP ME!?!?!? I thought it was suppose to charge with the provided USB cable? Thanks!

    Yes you have a one year warranty from the date of purchase from Apple. Go to this link and on the bottom right hand side it will ask you to enter your serial number and will tell you if you are still under warranty. http://www.apple.com/support/
    If you are you can take it to a Apple store, or request service online here http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
    If it is out of warranty you can google a third party service provider and get it serviced out of warranty. There are two that I know of that provide free diagnostic service. You only pay for shipping and they will tell you what is wrong and what it will cost to fix. They are ifixipodsfast.com and ipodmods.com but there are others also (I just have no experience with them) Good luck and as was stated it should charge from your usb. and just for grins, look at the docking connector on your ipod and see if there is any obstruction that is obvious.

  • N85 wont charge using USB to mini-USB cord

    Has anyone had the problem I'm having with my laptop and my N85?  I used to charge my phone while at work using the supplied USB-mini USB cord.  Suddenly it won't charge any more (unless I switch the phone off).  The phone connects to Nokia PC suite, and is responsive in every way except that it no longer charges while connected to the PC.  I've tried a generic cord in case it was a problem with the original cord and have exactly the same problems.  I've tried changing USB hubs and STILL the same problem.  I've rebooted both devices to no avail.
    When I connect the PC 'dings' twice, then repeats this about 3 times.  I can't identify what is going wrong so I can't fix it - any ideas?

    You may need to play with the connection.  I had mine USB plugged all the way into the computer port and it didn't register, but when I wiggled it out a bit, then it showed it was charging.   WEIRD but true.
    I just got my phone yesterday and am still trying to configure, etc it.  But I love it.  The battery life is far less than I'm used to coming from a BB world.  But I also realize it's running more at one time than the BB did.
    Good luck! 

  • Zen Micro wont charge via USB on first

    Hey guys,
    <EM>'ve had a look at alot of posts regarding charging Zen Micro's but none have thus far solved my problem.</EM>
    <EM></EM>
    <EM>I used to have a Zen Micro Photo but it broke and I've had it replaced with a Zen Micro (6GB) with firmware ..0</EM>
    <EM></EM>
    <EM>I have so far been unable to get my Zen to charge from a laptop. I have tried the following:</EM>
    <EM>* Cleanup from Recovery mode</EM>
    <EM>* Connect player whilst locked</EM>
    <EM>* Removed and replaced battery</EM>
    <EM>* Updated drivers on windows XP (my OS)</EM>
    <EM>* Installed software on 2 laptops and had exact same results</EM>
    <EM></EM>
    <EM>My zen is now dead battery wise, when I plug it into the computer it turns on and gives my a screen that says Low Battery. Not once have I seen the charge symbol appear when it was connected to the laptop.</EM>
    <EM></EM>
    <EM>When I do connect it it is seen as a MTP device on windows, and now Creative MediaSource does not recognise it as connected.</EM>
    <EM></EM>
    <EM>I had similar problems with my Micro Photo but they worked themselves out somehow (I dont remember how), its getting really frustrating and I'd appreciate any help.</EM>
    <EM></EM>
    <EM>Cheers guys!</EM>

    Maybe if it doesn't recognize it, you might have to install the software again (the CD that came with it).

  • Hi- Iphone 5 wont charge using power cable or USB...I am using a genuine apple charger/cable..this started after I was prompted with new update for IOS 7.

    Hi- My  Iphone 5 wont charge using power cable or USB...I am using a genuine apple charger/cable..this started after I was prompted with new update for IOS 7 yesterday. My phone is dead and wouldnt power up ..have tried resetting using itunes but i doesnt detect the phone and..pressing sleep/home button doesnt do anything

    Update
    I guess that it just had a bad connecting port on the phone itself, no clue why it wouldn't work when plugged in both ways other than there is actually some differentiating between the two sides.
