Why is my iHome not charging my IPhone?

I have an iPhone 4 and I tried charging it on my iHome but it didn't work. It plays music off my phone just fine, and when I put my iPod touch on it the iHome charges it.

There are a lot of different iHome's. Is it the one with the charger in it? If so then I would go get it checked out at your local electronic store (A.K.A: Gamestop, Apple Store, etc.).

Somewhere along the way in releasing all these new versions of ipod and iphones Apple changed the way the charging works. When they did that existing docks stopped charging. They would still play, but not charge. You will have to check your exact model of ihome against your exact model of iphone to see if charging is supported. But I suspect that's your problem.

  • Why do I keep losing my sound everytime I take my iPhone off my iHome? I unplugged my iPhone from my iHome and I keep losing my sound and then I always have to restart my iPhone in order to get it back and then I unplugged it again and I lost it again. If there's anything that I can do to fix this please let me know.
  • Problems connecting my Iphone with my ihome? My iPhone needs a snugger fit with it's iHome. When I first bought it, it worked fine but now when I snap my iphone into the dock it doesn't connect unless I keep the phone pushed forward a little bit because it is leaning back too far. Also, it is not my iphone that is the problem, does the same thing with anyone elses. Any tips? None of the adapters to change the dock input work with my phone either, they are all too small. I have the iPhone 4 and the ihome iD91
  • Is there an ihome for the iphone 5? I really want to buy an ihome, but i can't find one that is compatible with my iphone 5. I don't want to buy one and put an adapter on it because i read that it could break the phone or the cord. I want one that is specifically made for it. Are there any out there that i just haven't found yet?
  • IPhone charging cable not supported but still charging? I have a genuine Apple cable that came with my iPhone 6 (updated to the latest iOS). It fully charges up but when it gets to 100% I get a message that says "this accessory may not be supported". I don't see any damage to the cable and I have only had it a couple of months. Not sure whether to just ignore it or not?
