Hello there,
I've had my iphone for awhile now had to be a few months I don't have the exact date though. It's the "old" iphone I suppose you can say. Non-3G at-least. It charges until 20% and then stops I've plugged it into the computer and it happens and I put it into an Ihome and didn't charge it at all. The only thing I haven't tried is the car charger and the outlet charger only because I haven't drove and the house charger isn't with me at the moment. Any help before I go to the apple store and its something simple would be appreciated.
Also sorry if I didn't post it into the right thread or anything, this is my first time using the forums I just had to try something.
Hoping for a quick solution,
Nick.

Also I should add the computer doesn't see an iphone after charging till 20% so I can't restore. I'm currently using the 20 inch Imac don't have the exact specs but its not the best branded 20 inch.

Bump..Kinda

Ok, so I figured I'd make another post to keep everyone updated on my new discovery. The plug that goes into the wall will charge it, goody, but its not syncing to Itunes still so if noone has ideas I should be able to make it to the apple store tomorrow... if they have appointments
Atleast I'll have a phone tomorrow to use, I can't figure out why that would charge it though it might just be a matter of days. Last week the Ihome stopped charging it so I've been using the computer, now the computer won't charge it. Could my Iphone be causing problems to electrical devices?
