Always says its charging

My ipod randomly said that it was charging (the screen that shows the lightning bolt in a battery if you shut the ipod off when its plugged in) but it is NOT plugged in to anything. When I turn it on it still says its charging even though it is NOT plugged into anything. I reset it and plugged it into the wall charger a few times and the computer a few times. it still functions completley normally but i dunno how much battery life i have left as it always says that it is charging no matter what I do.

First, try Resetting it while it is connected to power. If this doesn't work Restore it in itunes.

  • IPod nano always says its charging.

    Hey guys Ive been having this problem for little over a few hours, and Ive tried resetting it resynchronizing, reformatting everything, and everytime I unplug it from the charger and go to put it to sleep (either through the sleep button on the main menu or holding down the play/pause button) it will turn off, then the charging screen with the big battery will come up and it will stay there. Any tips or help would be awesome. Thanks in advance guys.

    I hope your problem is a simple battery replacement.
    I had similar symptons. The "Charged" message stayed on when I turned the unit off. I took it to a repair shop for a new battery. The tech said he would gladly sell me a battery but it will not correct the problem. He said the logic board had failed and the unit thinks its still plugged in to the charger. He said that was running my battery down.
    At $95 for a new board I'll likely just get a new one.

  • HT1476 Iphone 5 says its charging but just stays at 2%.

    When i plug in the Iphone 5 to the wall and my computer it says its charging but its stays at 2%. When i plugged it in at night it was at 2% and when i woke up it said it was charging but still at 2%. Ive tried charging it with my mac but still says its charging and is still at 2%. Can someone please tell me how to fix the issue. My phone has always charged normally and now it wont. Ive tried different cords too.

    I understand that, but this doesn't answer my question.
    If the battery is actually at 2%, the iPhone would power off with a depleted battery fairly quickly.
    How quickly does the iPhone power off with a depleted battery after the iPhone is disconnected from a power source?
    Any change after powering the iPhone off and on, a reset which is similar to a computer restart, or after restoring the iPhone with iTunes?
    If no change after the latter, the iPhone has a hardware problem. The iPhone includes a one year warranty.

  • HT1384 I plug my ipod into charge and it says its charging but actually isnt saving the power when i unplug it, please help what do I do?

    When I plug it in and the green bar comes up it doesnt go up as it is being charged, so it says its charging but doesnt save the charge.
    Help what do I do?

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - 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 iPhone was at 63% then suddenly died, it say its charging but still not turn on, what do I do??

    I have tried everything and cannot get it to turn on, it comes up with the red battery icon saying its charging. But still nothing! Help!!

    Do not attempt to force it to start after it has shutdown due to low charge.  Fully charge before using it again.  If it will not charge, try a different outlet, a different charger and cable, and if it still does not charge, take it to an Apple store genius bar for testing by the technicians.

    Hi gotwaxed,
    If your iPhone is not charging while plugged into the wall adapter, then I'd like you to please follow the information outlined below to help resolve the issue.
    If the battery doesn’t charge
    If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:
    Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
    If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
    Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
    If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
    If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.
    Get more help
    If your device still doesn't charge or you still see an alert after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.
    If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Have a good one,

  • HT4528 My phone says its charging all the time but wont turn on

    My phone says its charging but wont turn I have it plugged in all day long and it just continues to show the low battery on the front! About every 6hours it will turn on for 5 minutes then shut right back off! Idk what's going on please help! All the support things on here want my serial number but obviously I cant get to it since my phone wont turn on!!

    Hello Monica121,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the phone will not boot or load up even after being given sufficient time to charge.
    I had a couple of recommendations for this issue:
    First reset the device with this procedure.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists after that, then I would try these steps from the iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting article found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • My iphone 4 with says its charging but its not

    I updated my iphone 4 to ios7 and itsays its chagrging but wont charge.
    I had this problem at the start of september when it first came out but after changing my charger and cleaning the bottom part it started charging again.
    A few days ago I got the bottom exchanged becasue it was broken. Now my iphone says its charging when its not. If I turn it off and on it sometimes skips from 9% to something like 16 % or 20%. I tried plugging it into my computer and I tried using my dock and original chargers. Also it sometimes doesnt even register that sometings in it, it just doesn't react.My Apple warrenty has finished but I've got insurance at my bank. Does anyone know what I could do.

    Bring it to whomever changed the "bottom".  Having a 3rd party repair shop touch the phone has not only voided your warranty, but forfeited your right to any assistance with that phone from Apple, including this forum.
