“Accessory Not Supported”? Why Your Apple MFi Cable May Fail

“Accessory Not Supported”? Why Your 100W Apple MFi Certified Charging Cable May Fail


Few things are more annoying than plugging in your iPhone or MacBook and being greeted by that dreaded message: “Accessory Not Supported.”
It feels random, but it isn’t.

Most charging failures come down to one thing, and that is using the wrong cable. Not just any wrong cable, but one that isn’t built to Apple’s standards. That’s where a 100W Apple MFi certified charging cable makes all the difference, especially if you’re charging newer iPhones, iPads, or MacBooks.

In this guide, we break down why Apple cables fail, what MFi certification actually means, and how choosing the right safe charging cable can save your devices (and your patience).

Why Apple Shows the “Accessory Not Supported” Error

Apple devices are designed to be picky, and for good reason. The error usually appears when:

The cable isn’t Apple certified
The cable can’t handle required power output
Internal chips fail to communicate with iOS or macOS
Voltage regulation is unstable

Apple’s ecosystem relies on authentication chips inside every Apple certified cable. If that chip is missing, outdated, or poorly made, your device simply refuses to cooperate.

What Apple MFi Certification Actually Means

MFi stands for Made for iPhone/iPad, which is Apple’s official licensing program.

A 100W Apple MFi certified charging cable contains:

Apple-approved authentication chips
Tested power regulation
Compliance with iOS and macOS updates
Safe data and power transfer protocols

Without this, cables may work temporarily but fail after software updates or extended use.

DailyObjects designs its Apple-compatible cables to meet these exact standards, ensuring long-term compatibility rather than short-term convenience.

Why 100W Power Matters More Than You Think

Modern Apple devices don’t sip power anymore, they draw it. MacBooks, iPad Pros, and even newer iPhones require higher wattage to charge efficiently. A low-capacity cable can cause:

Slow charging
Cause overheating
Power throttling
Cable degradation

A 100W Apple MFi certified charging cable ensures your device gets exactly the power it needs with no overheating or bottlenecks.

That’s why DailyObjects’ high-output cables are engineered for laptops, tablets, and phones alike, promising one cable with no compromises.

Cheap Cables vs a Safe Charging Cable

Here’s what usually goes wrong with non-certified cables:

No proper insulation
Inconsistent power flow
Weak connectors that loosen over time
Poor heat dissipation

A safe charging cable isn’t just about protecting your device, it protects your battery health long-term.

DailyObjects cables are built with reinforced braiding, stable internal wiring, and tested connectors to handle daily stress without performance drop-offs.

Why Apple Certified Cables Stop Working Suddenly

Ever noticed how some cables work for months… then just stop?

That’s because Apple updates its software regularly. Non-certified cables often lose compatibility after iOS updates because their internal chips can’t keep up.

A genuine Apple certified cable stays compatible across updates, devices, and charging standards, and this is something DailyObjects actively tests for across Apple generations.
