So my charging cord was damaged and I needed to get a new one. Tried using it with apple adapter, but then it’s not working. I don’t if its a faulty cord or maybe the adapter problem. Left my ipad drained overnight since I don’t have an extra. Lucky my friend lend me her charger : D
My problem is how long do I wait to start my ipad? Or does it automatically start when it reaches a certain battery percent? Enlighten me please
When connected to a suitable source of external power, if previously shut-down, the iPad should automatically restart. If the battery is fully discharged, the iPad may not restart until it has attained adequate charge; restart will typically occur within about ten minutes.
These support pages should help with troubleshooting battery and charging issues:
Charge and monitor the iPad battery - Apple Support
If your iPad won't charge – Apple Support
Troubleshooting generally requires substitution of the Power Adapter and cable for another known-good item. Most models of iPad require a Power Adapter rated at 12W (i.e., 2.4A @5V) or greater to reliably charge. 5W Power Adapters (1.0A @5V) intended iPhone are inadequate to charge an iPad; if the iPad charges at all, charging will be very slow. Many recent models of iPad are supplied with an Apple 20W USB-C Power Adapter.
Some third-party USB-C power adapters (and portable PowerBanks) may not support USB PD (Power Delivery). Power Delivery mutually negotiates the charging voltage; the source, load and cable are all elements involved in the negotiation protocol. Unless the Power Adapter explicitly supports USB PD, it will almost certainly fail to charge the iPad; proprietary charging standards, such as QC (Quick Charge), are not supported.
If you continue to experience difficulties when using an appropriate Power Adapter of 12W or greater, you might be best advised to seek assistance directly from Apple Support. You can contact the Support Team using the Support link at top-right or bottom-left of this page. Alternatively, you can initiate and manage your support cases from Apple devices using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:
