OK, I understand now. That shows how much I know about cables. The phone was given to me and I did try to look up what kind of cable 5s phones have but I must have assumed micro and lightening are the same thing since they look very simlar. Yikes!

Anyway, now I know what to get. Thanks. Though I think the seller of the speaker should have made good on it. I only bought it in April! He only told me where I could get another cable. Nice!

If I've got it right, your two cables aren't interchangeable because the one that came with your iPhone 5s is USB to Lightning, NOT USB to micro USB.

You should be able to get a new USB to micro USB cable almost anywhere. (I can get one, albeit not a very high quality one, at my corner candy store.)
