iPad Charging

Just in case people are not aware, although an iPad connected to a computer displays 'Not Charging' (this is the case on my MacBook Pro, with or without power cord and on my MacPro) the iPad is actually charging albeit slowly, works great overnight.


[crarko adds: My understanding is that there is enough power provided by the USB port to charge the iPad when it goes into sleep mode. That's obviously not the case while it's syncing with iTunes so it shows the 'Not Charging' message. Macworld ran an article covering the topic of iPad charging that gives a great detailed explanation of what is going on.]
