Charging Issues

Hello,

I have an older series 1 Apple Watch. When I put it on the charger, the white apple comes on and then disappears. It does this repeatedly during the entire time its on the charger. However, the watch does not get charged. As soon as I take it off the charger, it still does not turn on. Is this a battery issue or is my entire watch no longer good? Not sure where to start when getting it fixed.

Apple Watch Series 1, watchOS 4

Apple Watch 6 won’t charge I have an apple watch 6, when the battery dies it won’t charge, (it charges fine if I get it charged before it dies.) It just displays the time and a green lighten bolt in the top left. The charging circle does not fill. Normally I solve this my force restarting the watch, but I also have trouble force restarting, I press the the two buttons together as stated for the 10 secs and more and nothing, just keeps popping up with the display screen. Very frustrating as only had the watch a couple of months.

my apple watch series 2 is not charging. my apple watch series 2 is not charging. It got discharged and I got a wireless charger to charge it. When I put the watch on the charger the apple logo comes up and then the green death snake appears and the screen goes blank and it never comes up. Even if it is put to charge for 5 hours, nothing happens. I have changed 3 chargers but status is same. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Apple Watch won’t charge I have the first Apple Watch. It’s been about six years. I have never had a single problem with my watch until about three months ago when I forgot to charge it. The battery wore completely out. I put it on the charger and nothing happened. It stayed that way for about a week. Then, I would try to put it on the charger and the Apple would light up white then turns red and fades out. If I leave it on the charger for a long time, it stays black and gets hot. Anyone know a fix? I cannot hard reset. I’ve tried holding down the side buttons. Nothing seems to be working.
