Does the cable that's included also work for data/sync or is it just charge only? Is this apple certified?

It is not apple certified. The cable that I got did not work at all with my iPhone5. However, the dual USB port charges our other devices. Do not purchase this product for the cord. It is only good for being a dual USB charger for power cords you may already own.

I doubt the cable is Apple certified as Apple is VERY stingy about that. But it works flawlessly charging and syncing data.

Mine worked for a month on IOS 7.6 then conveniently stopped working 5 days after the return window closed. Seriously, these are just cables. Can't anyone besides Apple (who doesn't make their own) actually make a decent cable? (this is my 4th, only this one is from Skiva though). Ughh

NO, the cable is apparently "BASIC" and doesn't charge new apple products. It only charges "other lightning" products. Avoid.

First of all, I'm NOT sure that I have the answer for you, but here goes. Is your cable any good? How are the connections, either on the cable OR on the computer or the hard drive? Give Apple, or Western Digital a buzz. They're usually pretty helpful.

I have an iPhone 5 which I use with this cable and the phone has never said "it's not certified"? In fact, this cable has worked perfect with my iPhone 5. I've had no problems and it's a much sturdier cable than apple's cable (I had to replace the cable apple gave me because it frayed).

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the product only serves as a charger and not a synch tool. If you read the directions, it states that on page 2 or 3. I specifically bought it for charging stand, knowing full well it will not synch my data. Trust this helps.

Yeah! It's a micro USB. Works with almost everything except apple products.

I have had trouble with any connector not made by Apple. The connectors from Apple are more expensive but they do work. I have the latest IOS on my IPAD 3 and the cable which also has the connector to charge the IPAD also works.

Depends on what you are charging, and the charger you are using, if you have an android and an apple charger then you would need to use a cable with a shorted data pin (but that will allow charge only, not used with a computer to access files) If you have an anker IQ or an android charger then you would get full charge speed, apple Im not going to get into

Yes. This cable is power and data wired. Be sure if you are getting cables for reasons other than charging your electronics, it must state that it is a data cable as well. This cable simply extends the USB port, so it is wired for both power and data.

Hello Grace,This specific cable was discontinued by iSmooth. We now sell a much better version of this cable (minus a bit of the length but still quite long). You can see this version here: Apple Certified 7 foot Long 30 pin USB Data Sync Cable Compatible for iPhone 4, iPod, iPad, MFI Certified

I have had mine over a year now and have not had one problem and highly recommend it. I think that the not certified is that it's not an Apple approved device by Apple. Just like charging cables, I needed a longer cable so I bought some cheap ones off groupon, woot etc. and they all work fine at half the price or less.

Mine works perfectly. I plug it into my monitor USB port at work so i never take it home. I plug in my iphone charge while at work and i'm good. I never have to worry about my phone losing power while at work or on my commute home. I have the charge cable at home that came w/ the phone, and I only use it on weekends. My phone is charged up til at least 9am the following workday morning when i get in to work.

I bought two of these cables for my iPhone 6 and they work exactly as advertised. You can but only charge the phone but, more importantly, download and transfer data as well. I hope this helps. Harry
