The magnet works fine but nothing happens. No charge. Why won’t MagSafe charger work with brand new iPhone 12 Pro?
iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14
Remove any case from the device and then press and quickly release the volume up button, then do the same for the volume down button. Follow up by pressing the side button, and hold until the display suddenly shuts off about 10 seconds. Keep holding the side button and release when the device turns back onto its Apple boot screen.
then try to charge it again. Hope this helps
Magsafe charger does not work with Magsafe charger. I have tried all of the instructions on the forum. Hit or miss. The instructions do not lead to a consistent solution. Please update either the software or the instructions to fix the gap.
Magsafe Charger does not work with iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro Plus. Forum Help is inconsistent. Please fix this problem. Most of the posts only work once. Please fix the problem. I ought to be able to charge my iPhone 12 Plus Pro with a Magsafe—NO BRAINER!!!
Same problem here. My 12 pro max would charge fine on two different MagSafe charger. Two days later it would stop charging. Magnet works fine, no charge. Regardless if the case is on. I reboot the phone and it works fine. A day or two later it stops charging. Is this a wide spread issue?
I am still having this issue on Iphone 12 pro and ios14.4. Every week or so, I have to reboot the phone for the charging to work.
The annoying thing is, I replaced my Anker wireless charger with a magsafe thinking that would fix it. $60 and a week later the same thing happened.
This worked for me pressing both volume button, then the power, rebooting with the cover removed. Hope I don't have to continue to do this too often. So far in two months, this is the first time. If it continues to happen more frequently then I will post it. Thank you.
I just plugged into the MacBook pro and all worked well with the charger. I am thinking that I need to go right into the wall rather than using a fancy USB power adapter that I plug into. I did use the volume button solution that was proposed in this discussion as well, so this may have been part of the fix as well. Thank you for the help!
Well I’ve had my 12 Pro Max for a week now and bought a MagSafe puck today and it won’t charge the phone. Did the volume button reset 5 times and nothing. Tried my wife’s 11 and nothing. Removed the clear MagSafe case and tried that way and nothing. I can only charge by lighting or my Belkin wireless charging pads in the house. What is going on Apple????? I’m running the latest and greatest software, clear MagSafe case, and 20w charging brick OEM, and and I can’t even charge the phone with your accessories YOU ADVERTISE AS COMPATIBLE!!! When is a fix coming? Maybe you should pay your engineers more to and stop worrying about being WOKE! Do what you supposedly do best, make a product that works as advertised and fix this ASAP! This phone costs too much to have to play button hopscotch to get a feature to work. I should have kept my 10s Max.
This worked for me, thanks!!
@Griff1026, your instructions worked for me. I kept my Apple Magsafe case on, and it still worked for me. Thank you!
Update: 24-hours later, and the MagSafe charger is no longer working for my iPhone 12 Pro. Fingers crossed Apple finds a solution soon. Thanks for listening.
I never got mine to work. Have initiated a return so I can get it in before the deadline!
This worked for me too - thanks!
Update: installed latest iOS. Problem solved.
The recent update (14.2) has solved this problem for me.
I installed 14.2 and did the hard restart at least 5 times, but still no luck.
