iPad not showing in iTunes, when connected to iMac iPad says 'Not Charging'

I've upgraded to 10.6.3 (snow leopard), iTunes 9.2, I've verified that my USB ports are 2.0, I've shut down and restarted both units, and I've tried all three USB ports on my Mac...Still can't get my iPad to show up in iTunes, and it says its Not Charging.

I have confirmed that iTunes is syncing my iPod. I've also confirmed that my iPad's taking a power charge when plugged into an outlet. Am I going to the Genius bar (again)?

iMac4, Mac OS X (10.6.3), iTunes 9.2 (confirmed it works with iPod)

FOr the "Not Charging", most computers' usb ports does not have the output capability to charge the ipad unless the ipad is sleeping.

For the other issue, you may need to contact a genius, but first, you can try:
1) Press and Hold the Home and Wake Sleep buttons until the Apple Logo appears.

2) If that doesn't work, try a reset, To reset go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset.

If nether fix the problem, you can try a restore from the itunes-computer.

Hope this helps.
