I’ve been experiencing an issue with my iPad Pro lately where it just won’t charge. Whenever I plug it in, there’s no indication that the battery is gaining power at all. I’ve tried different power adapters and cables, but nothing seems to work. The battery percentage stays the same, and it’s incredibly frustrating. I rely heavily on my iPad Pro for work, and not being able to charge it is causing a lot of stress. I feel like I’ve tried everything, but I can’t figure out what the problem is. Has anyone else faced this issue with their iPad Pro not charging, and what could be the cause?

I completely understand your frustration. When my iPad Pro wouldn’t charge, I discovered that a software issue was the problem. Connect your iPad to your computer and open iTunes. Check if iTunes recognizes the device. If not, try putting it into recovery mode and restoring it. Also, ensure your iOS is up to date, as system bugs can sometimes cause charging problems. This step did the trick for my device.

I’ve encountered a similar issue with my iPad Pro in the past. Often, the culprit can be debris or dust accumulated in the charging port. Use a flashlight to inspect the port, and gently clean it out if needed with a toothpick or small brush. This worked for me; a tiny bit of lint was blocking the connection.

When facing the same problem, I learned that the issue was my charging cable. I suggest trying a different cable and adapter, preferably the official ones from Apple. Also, check for any signs of damage on the cable. Even tiny breaks can affect charging. Additionally, try plugging into a different outlet. After switching to a new, undamaged cable, my iPad Pro started charging again.

For me, battery settings were the issue. On your iPad, go to Settings > Battery and check for alerts. Also, visit Battery Health to see if any service is recommended. This can help diagnose if a degraded battery is causing the charge problem. Updating these settings fixed my issue.

My iPad Pro wouldn’t charge due to a system glitch after installing a new app. Restart the device by holding the power and volume down buttons. If that fails, do a soft reset (no data loss). Also, consider removing any apps installed around the time the issue began. These steps resolved my charging issues, restoring normal function.
