I bet there may be something blocking the charging port, or there is a problem with the cable. First try using a different cable with your iPad. If the issue still occurs, use a flashlight and magnifying glass to look into the port, and use a small, wooden toothpick to remove any dirt, lint, or other debris. See if that helps.


Otherwise you may need to make an appointment with the Genius Bar.
