The other day I upgraded my iPad 2 to 8.1.3 and now I'm no longer able to recharge it. What in the world is happening with Apple support? I truly wish that I'd never installed any of the upgrades suggest for this iPad 2.
iPad 2, iOS 7.0.4
Hey Skateroo,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPad is not charging. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If the battery doesn’t charge
If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:
- Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
- If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
- Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
- If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
- If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one,
Mario
Mario,
I thank you for your suggestions.
I've tried these steps and more but still not able to recharge.
I believe that it's a software issue related to 8.1.3
