iPads don't work when charging? How long does it take for your iPad to charge to 100 percent?

Your charging question can't be answered unless you tell us what model iPad - iPad 1, 2, 3, 4 or mini - you have.

An iPad 1 or 2 will charge in 3-4 hours. An iPad 4 in 7-8 hours.

Not sure what you mean that it won't work while charging? I use all of my devices and my Mac while they are charging....are you having an issue?

Hi Joyce,

Why can't you use it?

You can charge it at any time. It is quite detrimental to run the battery to 0% on a regular basis.

Absolutely....I think you need to take it into the Apple Store and have them take a look at it. There is no reason (unless the battery has been completely run down - and then it's only a short delay until it gets a little juice back) that you should not be able to use it while it is charging....(unless there is something about an iPad 2 that I don't know about ).

The other charger may not have caused damage, but if it wasn't capable of providing at least 10 watts, it would definitely cause the iPad to charge very slowly.

Not sure about that - I'm guessing that it is possible. I wouldn't recommend using a non-Apple charger, however.

Glad you are in on this, stedman! 😀
