5G Video iPOD stopped charging via USB: can someone help?

I bought 5G video iPOD last month. After about a month of charging via USB 2.0 port on WinXP desktop, iPOD no longer charges with USB port. If I connect it to desktop, it syncs songs and shows its charging but in fact it does not charge. As it can't sleep, its loosing power. If I hook it up in the night, its discharged in the morning.
I tried to charge it in the car (with car charger), iPOD charges fine. I have tried to change ports, tried different computer (laptop) and also sent iPOD for service, NOTHING HELPS!
I sent it for repair to Apple, but i got it back in 1 week saying its is perfect condition and no other details. (Very disappointed with Apple's lack of service)
Right now, I am stuck with iPOD not charging with any USB port. How do I solve this? Can the usb ports suddenly become low powered from high powered? Please advice.

I tried a friend's usb cable and that worked! I was able to charge iPOD thru usb wit it.

    What do you mean "Leave them my laptop again"? do you mean you have had it worked on before? for the same problem or a different one?
    You need to take it in to Apple ASAP. No matter how long they have it, you want it fixed and fixed correctly.

  • My iPod is annoying me. Can someone help before I throw it out the window?

    Here's what's happening:
    1)I was having some trouble with my iPod and I restored it with the newest iPod Updater. Then uploaded my songs. The only songs that worked were the ones I imported from CD's.
    2) Then I downloaded the newest iTunes and and updated my iPod again. Only a few songs didn't work this time.
    3) But now whenever I plug in the iPod to update it, it says I have to restore then update it. I must have done this 2 or 3 times by now. How do I stop this from happening?

  • Source window video won't play, only audio - can someone help?

    First time on this forum.  Using Pr CS4.  After capturing DV clip and opening in the source window - if I click on the play button in the source window the video makes a movement like it is going to play but then freezes. The audio from the clip still plays.  I can scrub the clip in the souce window just fine.  Could it be that I don't have some of the playback settings selected correctly. I should note that I have already put the clip on the timeline. 
    Thanks,
    Gary

    Quarter rez is like built-in proxy editing, and works well here.  Just follow the workflow guide for the latest version of the RED plug-in.
    The new workflow guide says this:
    Please note that the presets have been updated. For the new fractional resolution feature to be enabled, you must be using a preset from this release. Pre-existing timelines will need to be copy/pasted into a newly created sequence for the new decode options to become available.
    Does that apply to you?
    The latest version of the plug-in also has a "new" Source Settings dialog.  Format/resolution are now done on-the-fly from the Program Monitor display settings.  I include that info only on the off chance that you haven't noticed it yet.

  • Will iPod Charge via USB without.....

    Will iPod charge via USB without the computer being on? It was a question I had because if the computer does not need to on... then I can plug it into any computer that has a USB port. I would like to know if the computer is needed to be on... because to be honest, I don't want have to turn on my computer everytime to just charge my iPod.
    Right now I am using an old adapter from my previous iPod to charge it... but the problem is me, my mom, and my bro all need to share that charger and tonight, my brother needed the cable to transfer more music but he couldn't because I was using the cable... :-\

    Ok... Um... I had an old iPod with the buttons still... not on the click wheel. Back then they came with chargers... so I just use the cord and charger that came with that. But when I got my new 5G I gave my old iPod to my bro... and thats his cord he needs to use for his iPod... to transfer music and what not. I should just buy a new adapter that compatible with the USB Cord, that way me and mom just use that since she has a nano... and my bro can just keep his cord.
    Thanks for your response.

  • IPad won't charge using power adapter but will charge via USB

    I have an iPad 1 that recently stopped charging using the power adapter. "Broken power adapter or cable" I thought and reached for a spare that I have. That didn't work either. The original power adapter however DID charge another iPad without any problems, so the problem cannot be with the adapter or cable.
    Now this is the wierd bit - using the original cable plugged into my laptop I get the usual "Not charging" message but the iPad DOES charge slowly this way.
    I rebooted the iPad, restarted it in recovery mode and restored the firmware, cleaned out the 30-pin connector port - all those useful bits of advice that you find on the internet but all to no avail. The iPad just will not charge using any of the many  original Apple iPad charger sthat I have been able to get my hands on but will only charge on an underpowered USB port!
    The 30-pin connector must work otherwise it wouldn't charge via USB. Can there be some kind of wierd internal hardware defect that might cause such behavior?
    I fear that if I take a 3 year old iPad to the Apple Store they might just give me their best smile and show me the latest iPads but this old iPad works fine otherwise and I don't really want to replace it.
    Anyone got any ideas?

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

  • Phone only charging via usb

    Hi,
    I have a problem with my blackberry. A couple of weeks ago it stopped charging via wall socket charger. After trying a couple of different chargers and still not charging I contacted my service provider who brought it in for repair. After about a week I received the phone back from repair. They did not repair the phone because they said it would be a chargeable repair. I asked them what the fault was and they said the charging port on the phone had water damage but I can't see how because it has been no where near water. I tried the phone again with different chargers but still would not charge. I then tried a usb charger via pc and the phone now charges with no problems. So now I'm charging the phone with a plug in socket with usb connection. I Phoned my service provider to say the phone is charging via usb and the phone must have a hardware fault, But they are still saying that the phone is damaged and it is a chargeable repair. I can't see how if it is charging normally via a usb. Please can you confirm if the phone would have a hardware problem.
    Thanks

    Hi and Welcome to the Community...apologies for the delayed reply...hopefully you already have this sorted, but just in case!
    As described, this sounds quite odd indeed. I would not expect behavior in the manner you describe it. But, since this is a user-to-user community and not a formal communication channel with RIM, all I can give you is my opinion based solely on what you have said. Nevertheless, at an internet distance, it would be impossible to contradict what your warranty service provider has told you, even if I find the situation to be quite strange from your description.
    Good luck!

    So I connected my iPod to iTunes and an error message came up saying it needed an updated version of iTunes 64 bit and I was missing the Apple Mobile Device USB driver so I downloaded it because another discussion said that was the solution. I did but it wont show up in my device manager or services. Can someone help me figure out whats wrong?

    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:
