Why doesn't my ipad car charger charge my ipad?

Q. When i plug my ipad into the car charger, then plug the charger in the car, it won't charge my ipad. All it says is "not charging" please help!

A. iPads are really annoying when it comes to charging...They do not charge on the computer or in the car because of computers/ car do not have enough watts. iPads require 10 watts, and most cars and computers do not supply that..Even on the house charger, you have to use a special charger or it will only charge 1% an hour..Sorry, but there is honestly nothing you can do about it D:

Original Question

Can I charge my iPod touch 3G with an iPad charger?
Q. Can I or will it fry my iPod?

A. You can use the ipad charger and cable to charge an iPhone or iPod with no complications whatsover. It's rated for a higher wattage which means it can supply the higher wattage, it doesn't mean it will force that higher amount of current into a device...it will deliver whatever current the device needs. Watts are the product of volts and current. All of these devices use a 5 volts and the only difference is the current (amperes). The ipad needs 2 amps to charge as normal...iPhones and iPods only need 1 amp to correctly charge.

Now, charging an ipad with an iPhone or iPod charger and cable which can only deliver up to 5 watts (1 ampere) will cause the charger and cable to heat up because it's being overloaded (can't deliver the 10 watts or 2 amps the ipad needs) and will charge the ipad at a slower rate.

So no, charging an iPhone or iPod with the ipad charger and cable won't harm a thing. The only limitation would be if the power pins in the 30 pin plug didn't match up...then it wouldn't charge at all.

Original Question

Is it bad to use my iPad charger for my iPod touch?
Q. It went from 5% to 100% within a few minutes. Then it died in a minute as if the charge was false.

A. ipad chargers are for ipads,
so they should not work on ipods.
