A:Answer You can try the following troubleshooting steps to fix your Apple Pencil charging issue:
1. Check the Connection – If you’re using the 1st-gen Apple Pencil, make sure it’s fully inserted into the iPad’s Lightning port or the adapter. For the 2nd-gen Apple Pencil, ensure it’s magnetically attached properly to the side of your iPad.
2. Restart Your iPad – Sometimes a simple restart can resolve connectivity or charging issues.
3. Check for Debris – If you’re using the 1st-gen Pencil, inspect the charging port and connector for dust or debris that might be blocking the connection.
4. Try a Different Power Source – If you’re using an adapter, try charging with a different cable or power brick to rule out issues with the charger.
5. Check Battery Widget – Go to your iPad’s battery widget (swipe right from the home screen) to see if the Apple Pencil is detected.
6. Unpair and Re-pair – Go to Settings > Bluetooth, forget the Apple Pencil, and pair it again.
7. Update iPadOS – Make sure your iPad is running the latest software version, as updates may fix charging issues.
8. Contact Apple Support – If none of these steps work and your Apple Pencil is only a month old, it may be defective. Check if it’s still under warranty and contact Apple for a replacement.
