Why will my charging cable not work on my ipad?
iPad, iOS 7.1
Try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. WHen you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot then try again.
Try unplugging/replugging the cable. I can't tell if you have a lightning or older 30 pin cable, but if you have the 30 pin one it can look like it's in but not be making a total connection.
Look in the port, do you see any dust or lint? THat can mess with the connection.
Are you trying to charge via USB or plugged into the wall? It's best charged plugged into the wall with its supplied power block.
