Now that I foolishly allowed the new apple update on my iPhone 6, my phone won't charge because it won't recognize the cord as an authentic accessory. I am really using the original Apple cord and its in perfect shape. My phone is almost dead and I have 5,000 pictures unsaved. The charging port is clear of any debris. I used a generic charger yesterday; now it's like the phone has a cookie that keeps mis-reading the charging accessory.
