Why won't my computer charge my iphone?

When I plug it in it says "One or more USB devices was using up to much power. To prevent damaging your computer it has been disabled."

I have the newest generation iMac and iPhone. Fix?

Try unplugging other usb ports. Perhaps, using too much power means your power supply is far too little. You can try getting another power supply that has more watts.

  • My Iphone won't turn on or charge or plug in the computer? So I dropped my phone like 3 days back and it had still been working fine other than the cracks in the screen but then the other day I was playing video games so i set it down and it got lost in the blankets when I went to look for it I grabbed it and it wouldn't turn on it was just a black screen. I plugged it in the computer the computer didn't recognize it as anything and it wouldn't work at all. Is there a way I can fix this? Or should I just get a replacement.

  • IPhone loses charge overnight.a lot of charge. Why? My iPhone 4S was on 5.1.1 but i did restore the software last week and used a backup to also restore the files. Since then I have been losing about 35-40% of my battery overnight, I'm a very power-conscious person, I only use wi-fi, 3g when i need to and i usually keep everything off except data, notifications are to a minimum and location services are off as well as brightness being as low as possible.
