When I plug my iPhone 5c into my Macbook an error message will come up saying "Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled" and it won't charge or sync

I have had my iPhone since November and have never had this problem with it before. Sometimes if I unplug it and plug it back in it will begin to charge. Other times it will just be sitting there, not touched and keep switching between charging and not. I have tried it with my Macbook plugged in as well and this does not change anything. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

iPhone 5c, iOS 7.0.6
