How to Unstick Your Stuck Lightning Cable from a USB Port

As if there weren't already enough problems with the iPhone 5, now the new Lightning USB cable is reportedly getting stuck in USB power adapters and computer ports. The newer Lightning cables have deeper divots and a slightly thinner mouth on the USB plug than the old 30-pin cables did, so the cable can get stuck inside your USB port.

Luckily, there is a quick fix for this. If you have a dress shirt hanging in your closet, you can use the collar-stay to help dislodge your cable.

Have you run into this problem as well? Do you have any other quick fixes? Let us know below!

The next big software update for iPhone is coming sometime in April and will include a Food section in Apple News+, an easy-to-miss new Ambient Music app, Priority Notifications thanks to Apple Intelligence, and updates to apps like Mail, Photos, Podcasts, and Safari. See what else is coming to your iPhone with the iOS 18.4 update.
