My iPod touch 4th gen. Won't charge with a enercell charger that I've used since December. It will only charge with the apple USB cord that came with it. And even the takes it about 6 sec. To realize its charging. Help me fix this?

Yes, I've been using it for months. And I can charge other devices with it. (my iPhone) but something weird just happened..... I kept on pluging it in the iPod and sometimes it would start to chàrge then sometimes it won't charge. Charges every time with the iPhone though.

My ipod touch 4th gen won't appear in my Itunes. I have the updated itunes and I can play music from Itunes. My ipod says it's charging but again won't appear in Itunes for me to sync music to it.

Here:

I would start with:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
or
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

My ipod touch 4th gen won't pair with bluetooth audio receiver?

My ipod touch 4th gen won't pair with my aluratech istream universal bluetooth audio receiver. It automatically paired the first time I used it, but now will not pair. I removed the bluetooth receiver from the ipod because it kept saying make sure the receiver device is on and within range. Now it doesn't even detect the bluetooth receiver. Any ideas?

Thank you! We got the bluetooth receiver to use with our car stereo and our motorcycle stereo and were very frustrated when it quit working. Thank you for helping me solve the problem!

My ipod touch (4th gen) won't sync with itunes, OSX

My 8gb ipod touch (4th gen) won't sync with itunes. Running itunes 11.4 on OSX 10.6.8
My touch was running fine until one day I found about 3gb occupied by 'other' space. I ended up restoring my ipod which took care of the problem, but created a new one in that the ipod will no longer sync anything from my itunes library. I have music set up to sync selected artists, and when I click the checkboxes to select my albums and artists to sync, the 'audio' bar fills up.
When I click 'apply', the 'starting sync' and progress bar pop up for like half a second then disappear. Same goes with photos, apps, podcasts, etc.

Verify that you have the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Try syncing using the manual method
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
Last, backup to iTunes and restore from backup, yes again

Seems to be an Apple or FB app problem. Nothing you can do but wait for it to be fixed.

Ipod touch 4th gen won't sync or download podcasts

Hi, all! I get that the ipod touch 4th gen won't update to ios7, but this has made podcasts unusable I'm unable to download new podcasts or sync them to my computer because I'm told the podcast app isn't updated. Is there anything I can do or do I basically have an unusable ipod where podcasts are concerned?

Why happens when you install the last compatible version of the podcast app and sync?
Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

IPod Touch 4th Gen won't connect to my computer, charge or connect to iTunes.

Okay, here is the issue. My computer runs Windows Vista. Ever since I have updated iTunes to 11.0.2, my iPod touch hasn't been able to connect to the computer at all. I don't know if there is any correlation between the update and my issue, but I need someone to be the judge of that. Apple has suggested that you uninstall iTunes, QuickTime, etc. restart the computer and then reinstall them. So I have done that multiple times, and my iPod still won't connect to the computer. My sister's iPod touch, 4th gen just like mine won't connect to iTunes or the computer either. I have spent a lot of time looking up possible solutions, but none of them work at all. I've done everything Apple suggests in troubleshooting and such, but nothing works. I was hoping someone else might be able to give me a solution. One that hopefully does not involve uninstalling and reinstalling Apples programs, which I have done several times.
I have tried all accessable USB ports on my computer, and I have switched between the four different USB cords that we have, so this isn't the issue. My PS Vita will connect to the computer with no issue at all, so it isn't the USB ports either. I can plug my iPod Touch into my PS3 and it will charge the instant I plug either end of the cable in, the same for my sister's. I can plug it into the dock on my mother's alarm clock and it will charge just fine. I'm open to any suggestion, so please help me out here.

So you tried everything here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
Try connecting to another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem.

My iPod Touch 4th Gen won't charge?

Well I've had my iPod Touch 4th Gen since it came out it will be 2 years old in October. Yesterday I charged my iPod while listening to music. I took it of when it was charged and used a little it became half dead so I put it on my charger. I realized there was no indication of it charging? I placed on all of the chargers in my house and the same problem. I haven't tried connecting it to my Mac, but I did try turning on and off but still won't charge. Does anyone know if I can fix this?

- Try connecting it to yur computer and se if it charger and it it appears in iTunes
- Try another cable
- Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalites like bent or corroded contacts, crackd or missing plastic pieces or foreign material.

My ipod touch 4th gen. won't charge or reset or come one at all.

Please help. I have a ipod touch 4th gen. Yesterday it died, battery ran down, and i've not been able to get it to do anything. The screen shows the battery with red, but it's really faint. I've tried to reset/restart it several times, but it still does nothing. I plugged it up to the computer, hoping to reset it via itunes... nothing. I left it plugged up to the computer for several hours hoping it would charge....nothing. Tried the docking station to charge it, nope.
The battery has run down before and i've been able to charge it with no problem. I don't know what's different this time. Is there a way to do a factory reset or something like that to just completely reset the whole thing?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPOD TOUCH 4th GEN WON'T SYNC PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi I have a refurb ipod touch 4th gen, I bout it a little over 4 months ago and have sync-ed it with the same emac g4 running 10.5.8 iTunes 10.2(at time of purchase) to 10.4(today) and abruptly today I plugged it in, and my computer will not recognize it in the slightest. I followed instructions and guides and trouble shooters, and put it in recovery mode, dfu mode and plugged it into all the computers in the house, from 2010 MacBook to lenovo running ubuntu. It still charges using my wall charger, bit WON'T EVEN CHARGE When I connect it to the computer. and I would leave well enough alone except I want to sync new music and update iOS 5 when it comes out. But as stated before I have tried all I can, even looking into jailbreaking. PLEASE HELP I JUST BOUGHT THIS, if you can help in any way please do

I Have Now For 5 Days Tried Everything On Apples Website, MacRumors, MacHeads, Etc. And Still Nothing, Although In Windows it Comes up with "USB Device Not Recognized" And When In Device Manager I Right Click on "Unknown Device" And Click Properties, And Its USB ID is All Zeros, Apple Had an article on this but i did all that was stated and still nothing.
The Nearest 'Apple Certified' Genius Bar is At a Computer Store, but, Unlike Apple Stores; Diagnostics on ipods is $15 and then more to Fully Repair, So i Think I'll Call Apple First. haha
thanks

Try the remaining items of::

IPod touch (4th gen) won't connect to my wifi after being lost

I lost my iPod touch (4th gen) yesterday so "locked" it using iCloud. The nice folks at the vet office found it and I retrieved it today. Noticed it wasn't actually locked, could listen to podcasts and open apps right away, and it syncs fine when I connect it to my computer. But it won't rejoin my home wifi, doesn't even ask for password, just says unable to join. Network is fine, or I wouldn't be able to leave this question! Thanks for any help...

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Still won't work and I'm baffled as to what could be the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi LittleBear,
Can you describe your problem further? Are you getting any error messages in iTunes? Just appearing to sync as normal?

IPod touch 4th gen won't restore or power on after dropping it on its back "waiting for ipod"

My iPod touch 4th gen was recently dropped on its back after playing with its case. It turned white, then powered off.
After that i tried restoring and now everytime itunes stays on the "waiting for ipod" step.
I know that all functions work because I successfully entered dfu mode many times, and the lcd powers on but the progress bar doesn't move while itunes says waiting for ipod.
Thanks for looking at my thread and sorry if i misposted (first time apple forum user)

Something has been jarred inside. Anecdotally, people have reported success smacking their device again, to maybe rejarr things back into working order. But doing that is your call since it could be defined as abuse.
If it's physically damaged inside, there may not be much of a user fix for you to try unfortunately.

My iPod touch 4th gen. Won't charge with a enercell charger that I've used since December. It will only charge with the apple USB cord that came with it. And even the takes it about 6 sec. To realize its charging. Help me fix this?
