My favorite lightning cable is the Apple MFI Certified New Trent Lightning
to USB Cable sold by Amazon.com. This cable is much thicker and more durable
than any other cable that I have ever purchased. I used to go through
lightning cables like they were candy, but not since purchasing this
particular cable. Right now Amazon shows them as retailing for $29.95, but
they are on sale for $5.95 with free shipping. Here is the link for that
cable.

Rajmund,
I'm with Sieghard and avoid using anything other than Apple certified
lightning cables. I also don't think I'd buy my iPhone charging stuff from
eBay but that's me. I've had good success with Anker lightning cables
purchased from Amazon.

It can absolutely be the cable. I have bought less expensive cables from
Amazon, but I always make sure they are MFI (Made for iPhone) certified. In
China last year a woman died because she touched her iPhone which was
plugged in with a cheap, non-certified charger while she was in the bathtub
and she electrocuted herself. Of course the headlines at first screamed how
this was Apple's fault until it was revealed she had been using a
third-party charger.
As for Windows 10, just go to Settings, System, Default Apps and set
Internet Explorer as your default browser (or Firefox if you prefer it and
have it installed).
Regards,
Sieghard

Subject: USB cable question
Hi,
So, sadly, after 8 months of use, my original Apple Charger, has died. By
that, I mean, the plastic on the actual cable, near the end that you plug
into the phone, cracked open, allowing the inside to be visible. SO, I got a
replacement off eBay, which, cost me �1.50, however, over 20000 were sold.
The cable arrived today, and, looking at it instantly told me that it wasn't
a valid apple certified cable. But, no problems, or so I thought, it
charged beautifully, until.... Thought I'd plug it to iTunes, and show a
friend something. That's when reality hit me. At first, silence. Second,
iTunes gave an error. Then, said an iPhone was detected, but it could not
connect, (or whatever it says) please disconnect this iPhone, and try again.
Did this about 5 times, switching between 3 USB ports of this laptop, for
which, I have used the old cable to restore phone with. So, here's the
question, is it possible that it is the cable, or would it worth trying
again?
PS. Its windows 10, on which, I have installed the update yesterday, and
iTunes is detecting an update, but couldn't bother figuring out Microsoft
edge, so that I could download it, hence the question.
