<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoY4QMr6aX7cVYOLSO58S-Ed4UwnvCJWXmQ8973izlB1bCcwMZZbh6Xl49C_k1rk-8CszhmTcoedycEVBVySAjcBjvTq3_acUvmAkE47fx7w7g5WZpB1JYvWcEXKOO6NvmVYCyfACnwRE/s1600/iPhone-5-lightning.png" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoY4QMr6aX7cVYOLSO58S-Ed4UwnvCJWXmQ8973izlB1bCcwMZZbh6Xl49C_k1rk-8CszhmTcoedycEVBVySAjcBjvTq3_acUvmAkE47fx7w7g5WZpB1JYvWcEXKOO6NvmVYCyfACnwRE/s320/iPhone-5-lightning.png" /></a>We all have to charge our iPhones and quite often too. The constant multitasking and apps running in the background tend to use up the battery quicker than ever. If you have ever used Google Now over and extended period of time on your iPhone then you will know exactly what we mean. A lot of people have started to notice that their iPhones aren't charging as they should. Phones that are left to charge aren't charging and Lightning cables that are expected to deliver the much needed juice are simply failing. Others have reported that the Lightning connectors are moving around inside their iPhones a little too much and these aren't the cheap knock off cables either. If this is something that you are familiar with, we have a fix. It won't cost you anything and it doesn't take long to do either. It should hopefully make your lightning cable fit a bit better too. We came across this tip on Reddit and it makes great sense. The thread was started by someone who found that his iPhone 5 was refusing to charge and, luckily for him, he happened to be at dinner with someone who worked for Apple. According to the Reddit thread, the charging problem was fixed by taking a toothpick to the Lightning port and, after a little prodding and probing, relieved it of all its lint. That's the pocket link that our iPhones get subjected to every time we put them in our pockets. Obviously enough, it gets into all the nooks and crannies of our smartphones and that includes the Lightning port so that the cables won't fit in properly. We tested this with an iPhone 5 that we have that has been a little iffy when it comes to charging and it worked. If you are facing the same problem with an iPhone 5s, 5c, fifth generation iPod touch or one of the iPads with the new lightning port then this little trick should work a treat. Let us know in the comments if it solves your problem or if you have come up with another solution.

It has take Apple quite some time to approve some third party accessories for the new iPhone 5 lightning connector but we are happy to announce that they have now arrived. If you own an iPhone 5 with the new lightning connector you will be delighted to hear that you can now get speakers, car chargers and more. Apple has been very picky about who is going to be able to manufacture approved accessories. In September, Apple highlight several vendors and all of these should have speakers and more available soon. In terms of speakers for the iPhone 5 the smallest by JBL called the OnBeat Micro is a desk to size speaker that will sell for $100. They are also producing the JBL OnBeat Venue Lightning which is for more than just the iPhone 5. It can fit any lightning ready iOS device that Apple sells including the iPad, iPad Mini, iPod touch and iPod nano. This speaker will sell for $200. Earlier this month, Belkin, which has been very popular when it comes to iOS accessories announced their official line up of Lightning connector ready products. For just $30 you can get a charger and a Charge + Sync Dock. The dock should prove really popular as this is the first iPhone that Apple decided not to include an official dock for. We're sure to see a lot more accessories in the coming weeks and months and as we recieve news and information about them we will be sure to post it here.

This has been name Lightning. This decision hasn�t been too popular with people who own lots of accessories such as speakers, car chargers, docks, etc that were made for the older 30-pin connector. The good news is that the Lightning to 30-pin adapter is now on sale. Those of you who have order these adapters will be delighted to hear that they are now being shipped. This news comes from the people over at MacRumors in the form of a short post in which they cited that shipment notification emails have been sent to their readers stating that their orders have been shipped. Most of these readers are from Australia so for those in other regions the wait may be a little longer. For those who you who haven�t ordered an adapter yet it is worth noting that there are in fact two types available. There is a rather bulky offering for $29 that does directly under your iPhone 5 and a nicer $39 unit that comes with a 0.2m cable that goes between the Lightning connector and the 30-pin port of the accessory you want to use. These new adapters are compatible with the iPhone 5, the fifth generation iPod touch and the seventh generation iPod Nano. The prices for these may seem a little on the high side but we are sure to see some third party adapters making it into the market soon for a much cheaper price. The new connector really is here to stay and it has some advantages too. It is thinner, smaller and reversible so it can be connected anyway you want. We are sure to see more and more information about this new connector and there will be new accessories in the pipeline but for now an adapter is the only way to go.
