3rd gen ipod charger with ipod nano?

I have an 3rd gen ipod and i was wondering if i can use that charger for the ipod nano

Could you tell me if when using the firewire recharge connection to the computor can the comp be in sleep mode or does it have to be active as it does if you recharge with the USB?
Oh, and if any one's a PowerBook user, I'm not too sure what the cables were that came bundled with my PB, but I think one was a firewire, would that be all I needed to recharge my nano through the pooter?
Thanks

Is it safe to use a 4G iPod charger with iPod classic?

I want to make sure my old charger won't fritz my new iPod. Am I going to damage the battery or anything by using this older charger? I used the old charger with my first iPod classic, but experienced battery problems (10 hours or less of play time, audio only, 15% screen brightness and less than 50% volume) and got it replaced under my AppleCare protection plan. I'm not sure that the older charger caused these problems, but I want to make sure...

The old charger won't cause a problem. I'm still using Firewire chargers from my third gen iPod.

Can anyone help ?
please?

WHow long have you left it to charge? Have you tried resetting it after a short period of time to see if that can help jumpstart the charging process? To do this, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

Can I use the 40g/ipod charger with my ipad2?

Can I use the 40g/ipod charger with my ipad2?

Not the best idea, it'll overheat and could damage either the ipad or the charger. The iPad will be attempting to draw more wattage then the little charger is designed to put out.
Here is a link for the proper one http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC359LL/A?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjA
This would work for both :)

2nd Gen Shuffles charge with power adapter, not seen at all by computer

I have three Gen 2 Shuffles (mine and kids), and am having same problem with all three.
If I plug them into either of our home computers - an iMac and a brand new Macbook Pro - they don't even seem to be recognized at all by the computer as even being plugged in, nor will they charge. The orange light flashes on for a split second when I plug in the USB cord, then goes out. Nothing else happens. I have two USB cords - same with both.
If I plug the same USB cords into the power adapter and plug into the wall outlet - all three iPods charge, with either cord. So the cords seem to be working fine.
If I plug the USB cord into my work PC - a Dell that doesnt' even have iTunes on it -- the computer recognizes the iPod as a disk. I've done this many times for many years to charge it at work if it was low, with no problems. And I haven't plugged the kids' into my work computer.
I am pulling my hair out here. I've read about others with a similar problem -- but in those cases at least the iPod seemed to be communicating with the mac, but not showing up in iTunes. In my case, I can't even get anything to happen!!
Would really appreciate any advice.
Intel Core 2 Duo iMac with 10.5.8, and Macbook Pro bought last week with OS-X Lion.

Nobody has any ideas?

Can i use my iPod Nano 3rd gen data cable with iPhone 2G?

Ipod Nano (3rd gen) not syncing with Microsoft Outlook 2007

I previously upgraded computers and now I can't sync my ipod with my outlook calendar. I upgraded to 2007. Any ideas? I'd greatly appreciate any thoughts or help. Thanks.

iTunes 11 won't even recognize my 1st and 3rd gen nanos. They've just rendered all the devices I love useless.
You can send feedback on the upgrade here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html. I'm hoping enough legacy iPod users will speak up that they'll rethink and/or fix it.

IPod Nano 1st Gen Wont Charge With USB Cable

I just purchased a brand new 4 gb white 1st gen iPod nano. From the moment I took it out of the packaging and tried to charge it with the provided USB cable I noticed it was not working. No response at all, nothing was getting into the iPod. I tried multiple USB cables with equal luck.
I have a Dension I.C.E Link Plus in my car, I figured I'd try it, sure enough the iPod Nano began charging and booted up. I finished charging it to a full charge in my car.
After a few days of use, I went to charge my iPod via USB cable and when I plug it in, it connects to the computer I can transfer songs perfectly but it constantly states that the iPod is "charged" displaying the plug battery icon not the flashing thunder bolt. So I figured it was charged, when I unplugged it from the USB cable the battery meter was clearly not charged.
So, I assumed it was my computer USB ports being messed up so I purchased a A/C Wall Charger Adapter. Once again it would only display "charged" so far the only thing that will charge my nano is my car.
With the A/C wall charger I have even tried multiple cables with no luck.
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME!?!?!? I thought it was suppose to charge with the provided USB cable? Thanks!

Yes you have a one year warranty from the date of purchase from Apple. Go to this link and on the bottom right hand side it will ask you to enter your serial number and will tell you if you are still under warranty. http://www.apple.com/support/
If you are you can take it to a Apple store, or request service online here http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
If it is out of warranty you can google a third party service provider and get it serviced out of warranty. There are two that I know of that provide free diagnostic service. You only pay for shipping and they will tell you what is wrong and what it will cost to fix. They are ifixipodsfast.com and ipodmods.com but there are others also (I just have no experience with them) Good luck and as was stated it should charge from your usb. and just for grins, look at the docking connector on your ipod and see if there is any obstruction that is obvious.

Ipod touch 3rd gen wont sync with my laptop and or itunes any ideas ipod second hand?.

Does it work?
Does it charge?
See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
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
Run this to help if it identifies the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Have you tried on another computer to help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem?

Old Ipod 3rd Gen not charging in usb

hi,
i have a 3rd gen ipod, wich was sold with firewire cable, i've tried to charge it with an usb cable, but it didn't charged...was it my fault or is it a normal situation?
thanx

The iPod video does charge over Firewire--however, it will NOT sync with the Firewire cable. A USB connecion must be used to add songs or videos to the iPod.

IPod 3rd gen not working with universal dock

My old iPod 3rd gen (15GB, touch wheel, dock connector) worked great with the old dock, until the latter started scratching noises when outputting audio to my stereo. Still charges the iPod though.
So, I tried old iPod with the universal dock I got for my Touch and found the following problems:
1. iPod is not being charged through new dock plugged to wall adapter
2. touch wheel menu control is not working as long as iPod sits in universal dock plugged to the wall adapter - the sound of clicks is all I get, but no control of menu or any other function. In order to select playlist or use any other function through touch wheel or any of 4 buttons I need to unplug power from the dock (it is not charging anyway)
3. remote is not working at all
Otherwise playback is OK.
Any ideas what may be the culprit here? Apple states that Universal dock is compatible with 3rd generation of iPod and up.

Hello Andrew,
What a coincidence as I too have had to find a new dock for my 3rd gen ipod. This week I purchased an Apple AV Connection kit - but found that it would not charge the ipod or respond to the remote. I also bought and tried a Belkin AC adapter with cable to power up the ipod but it too would not charge the ipod.
To see if these units were working I connected them to a friend's brand new ipod classic and both the Belkin and Apple AV Connection Kit worked fine - so there is something different about the 3rd gen ipod.
I'm not sure if this helps you - but at least you know it's not just your ipod that is not working with the new dock.

Ipod 3rd Gen battery charge issue

I have various 3rd gen ipod's and logic boards. parts n pieces etc. here is my issue.... i recently purchased a new battery for 1 of these 3rd gen ipods to repair. when i first plugged everything in and connected usb cable ipod fired up no problems but the battery was not showing any charge. i even tested battery as it was charging with a multi meter. the voltage was slowly discharging. Now... i disconnected the battery and plugged it into a 2nd gen ipod mini and did the same thing. The battery showed a slow charge as tested with the meter. once the battery charged to full 3.7v i then put it back into the 3rd gen and powered it on only to the same effect with no battery charge indication and also a slow drain with the meter test. i've tried this on 3 or 4 different 3rd gen logic boards that i have and with the same results. I'm confused *** is goin on here. any replies please. thanks.

Just how its logic board is programmed I guess.
They make splitter cables which is a firewire and usb cable in 1, so if you have a wall charger you can charge and sync via USB at the same time.
