I plug a usb cord into my computer and it turns off?
I got an apple MacBook Pro a week ago today. And Last night it randomly shut off and wouldn't turn back on. So i took it in to Best Buy (where i got it) and they just gave me a new one ant transferred my stuff on to it. Now with this new one (That I got less than 12 hours ago) i plugged in my iPhone usb cord to the usb port farthest from the screen and it instantly shut off. I was able to turn it back on and tried again with the same port and it, again, turned off. So I turned it back on then tried the other port and it (thankfully) stayed on. Why do you think it turned off when i plugged it in to the first port?
Sounds like something is shorting. I would maybe get a new cord and avoid the problem port for sure. Could wind up burning something out in the notebook.
Some USB chips can't provide the full specification Current.
your phone may well be trying to CHARGE itself and may
only be compatible with a SleepNcharge USB port.
you should have your phone on its charger before connecting it
or check which ports on your device are SleepNcharge
and maybe look at turning off charging via the USB inside your
phone menu(if you get that option)
it could permanently damage both devices if you keep doing this.
I'd replace the battery NOW
there's a defect there somewhere
take it back for another one, that is not normal
and don't accept the unit as is
in fact, since this is the 2nd one, they may have a whole LOT that is bad and I'd request a replacement with a different LOT number, [[ they can tell ]]
get a replacement or a refund
- Where can I get a good Australian plug in for my iPhone USB cord? I'm going from the US to Australia, and all I need is something that can plug in to an Australian outlet without blowing up my phone. Where can I get one of these that will actually work, and won't cost me a ton? Links are appreciated!
- When setting up an Apple Id and password for an iphone 5s, do you need to plug in the USB to the computer and the phone? Do you hook up USB plug to phone and computer to sync it, or do you just create the Apple ID and password?
- What happens to iPhone if USB cord wasn't fully plugged into phone? I often leave my iphone to charge overnight but recently I woke up and the phone said it was charging but it was at 10%. On further inspection, I saw that the USB cord was like half way into the power adapter. Is this damaging to the battery? I'm worried that my new 5S is damaged because the battery seems to drain about 10% faster.
- My iPhone keeps turning on and off like it turns on and off. Can someone tell me? Okay tbms it turns on and off on and off and then sometimes it shows a red screen for a few seconds then off again and dies out. It's not the battery because I got that changed thinking that it was the cause and it wasn't. So is there anything someone can help me with? The repair guy tried restoring it through iTunes he said it didn't work either it just won't come on it doesn't go pass the Apple logo before shutting off and on again and dying out
