Charging Question

[LTCSZ]

Hi: Do I run any risk of damaging the Air 2 by using a USB port on my computer that gives me the message, "Not Charging"? Seems to work fine for ITunes, etc. but I wanted to be sure...Thanks a lot...

No, you won't run any risk of damaging your iPad Air 2 by using a USB port which causes the not charging pop up to appear. This just means that the power supplied by that USB port is not high enough to charge the iPad while using it. If you put the iPad to sleep and check some time later you'll find that the iPad is charging, but at a much slower rate than when connected to the supplied charger.
