Not Charge

- Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My iPod Shuffle will not charge or connect to the computer. I updated iTunes and bought a new charger. Any ideas? Thanks
My question was, when you connect the shuffle to USB, does the light come ON? From the way you answered, I'm not sure if you are answering that question, or saying that the light does not come ON when you move the power switch on the shuffle to the ON position.
Also, what happens when you connect the shuffle to your computer by itself, with nothing else connected to USB?
If you get no response (no light) from the shuffle when you connect it to USB by itself, trying both the original USB cable and a new one that is compatible with the 4th gen shuffle, try connecting something else to the USB port to confirm it is working properly. It would be best to test the USB port with something similar, such as a USB flash drive or external drive. If you can confirm the USB port works properly, it is likely that the cause for this problem is on the shuffle, such as a faulty headphones jack or bad logic board.
If the shuffle is less than one year from purchase date, it is under warranty. -
IPod will not charge or connect to itunes
Hello, My name is Perla and I am a proud customer of Apple. I bought my iPod Touch 4G 8G on March 17, 2011. I had no problems over the course of almost a year. Last week, my iPod would not charge or connect to iTunes. I took it to the Apple Store and they exchanged mine for another. Just a couple of days ago, my new iPod had been experiencing the same problem. As of now, it would not charge to my computer or any outlet for that matter or connect to iTunes. I want to take it to the Apple Store and get it checked out but I'm afraid they won't exchange it again, they'll probably charge me and I don't have the money. Any ideas or suggestions?
I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. You warranty is istll in effect. The warranty for a replacement iPod is 90 days or the remainder of the original warranty, which ever is greater.

My iphone 4 is not being detected by any of my computers and not charging when connected to any computer. It will, however, charge to the car or wall. The only change that I can think of is that I downloaded a podcast from itunes directly from my phone. I've since deleted this podcast with no luck. I've restarted both the phone and the computer, still no luck. One computer is running Vista and the other Windows 7, both have the latest Itunes Update. Anyone have a fix for this?

My iPod is dead and won't charge or connect to the computer. How can I fix this?
My iPod is dead and won't charge or connect to the computer. How can I fix this? Before it died, it said I had a full battery whenever I charged it, but as soon as it came off of the charger, the battery level was always under ten per cent.
Sounds like the battery needs to be replaced.

What do i do if i forget my passcode to my ipod touch and it wont connect to the computer
whatdo i do if i forget my passcode for my ipod touch and it wont connect to the computer?
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

Ipod Shuffle not charging or being detected by computer or Itunes
My Ipod shuffle is less than three months old, and has suddenly quit working. It is not detected by Itunes or the computer, except when it's first plugged in a red light flashes on the Ipod itself, then turns off. I have tried several cables, and I have tried connecting it to multiple computers and USB ports. I have another Ipod that syncs fine with Itunes, so I know Itunes works. Itunes is also updated to the latest version, and I have checked all of the drivers. The Ipod worked fine one day, and the next day, it would not turn on. It was left on a shelf overnight the night it quit working, and has never been exposed to water as far as I know.
I think the trouble-shooting you describe has ruled out a bad USB docking cable, and a problem on the USB port. And since it previously worked with this computer, it's not some incompatibility with software or hardware. Even if there was a software (OS or iTunes) related problem, the shuffle should still charge when connected.
So, if it's not software, the docking cable, or the USB port, the cause is probably a problem on the shuffle (such as the logic board or battery). Since it is less than one-year from purchase date, you should have it checked under warranty. If you have an Apple Store nearby, you can make a reservation at the Genius Bar on the store's web page
https://www.apple.com/retail/
and take it there. Otherwise, you can contact Apple's tech support using the Contact Us link at the bottom right corner of this web page. -

So I have tried everything, plugging into 3 different chargers, into the wall and pc. Two different USB ports on the pc. And yet nothing. I have done all the hold down the top and home button for 10 seconds then also a minute and yet still nothing. It was was working fine charging and every thing and I unplugged it walked out of my room for about 5-10 mins go to plug it back up and nothing. I have been searching for over a hour looking for solution's. What is really crazy about it it that if I turn it off then plug into my pc the apple logo will pop up and it will come on and it seems to have charged some. But it still will not charge while on or be recognized by my pc or Itunes. I know it can't be any of the prongs on the charger port bent because it would not charge while off. Someone please help!! Thanks

TS1717 Why will my I'pod not take a charge when connected to the computer?
Questions?
-- Your connecting to the same computer?
-- Your using the same usb port?
-- Your ipad's are in the same state?
I've heard that computer usb ports are somewhat marginal in recharging the ipad. Best to use a power outlet.
