because your pc is likely a little older and its usb ports can only
source 500ma. the ipad needs additional power to charge. more recent
computers supply additional power, mostly for usb hard drives which
used to come with dual usb cables for this very reason.
the ipad actually will charge from your pc if the ipad is not in use,
but very slowly. if you wake it, you will see the not charging message
because there's not enough power to both charge *and* run the ipad.
