Ipad 3 not charging

    I bought a new 16Gb ipad 3rd generation on Monday. This morning when I woke up I plugged the charger into the wall and its not charging? I think the problem lies with the plug because when I plugged the Usb into the laptop it connected to Itunes but I got a warning on the ipad "Not Charging". I'm currently restoring the Ipad back to factory settings via itunes.

    Anyone else have similar problems?

    Not sure about the mains issue but your iPad won't charge connecting it to a laptop or pc/mac

    i'd bring it back to the shop

    It's more than likely the plug. Most computers USB ports aren't powerful enough to charge the new iPad. Have you tried a different plug socket, or putting a different USB cable in the plug?

    Restore away mad, it can't hurt.

    Also make sure you're using the wall plug you go with your iPad and not an iPhone one, it could make the difference. As bertie said above it will depend specifically on the PC/Mac whether it's capable of charging the iPad.
