Last thing I did before bed was check a few things on the iPhone. Then I connected the sync cable that was plugged into my running computer (Vista). It said syncing on the iPhone screen so I went to bed
Guess what, it did not charge the entire night. iTunes brought up that stupid message about transferring new applications or deleting them. So the entire charging process halted because of that.
So after I got up and noticed this, I clicked transfer, it just locked up, I had to force quit iTunes. I reopen it, it gives me an error it can't connect with the iPhone. I remove the cable from the phone and reconnect, nothing happens. Seems even after removing the cable, vista still shows an iPhone connected, which iTunes is erroring with. There's no remove or eject option for the device. Now I guess I have to close everything and restart my computer just to charge the dang phone. (I know about the charging cube)
So I guess the lesson learned here, even though you have the iPhone connected to a running computer, it won't charge unless iTunes lets it. If I had to go to work right not I'd be stuck with a phone with less than half the battery. It would have been less annoying if iTunes didn't totally crash and ruin resyncing with the computer just for not answering that message over night.
