Battery Charging icon not showing up in iTunes

I have a brand new iPod Classic 120GB. My wife has an iPod Nano 3rd Gen 4GB. When she connects her Nano to my MacBook Pro (Leopard w/iTunes 8), she has a little battery charging icon next to the sync and eject icons in iTunes. However when i connect my iPod Classic 120GB i don't have it. I would assume my software would be identical OR newer. I have version 2.0 and she has version 1.1.3, both Mac formatted.
This isn't a major deal, but i kinda like that icon and i'm just curious why it's not showing with my newer one. I've try both her and my sync cables, both work fine and don't change a thing icon wise.

Looks like this issue is resolved in the latest Classic software update 2.0.1. I now have my battery charging icon.

  • Battery charge is not showing correctly in Lion

    Hi Guys.
    Quick question, my new macbook Mid 2010 laptop is not showing the correct charge, It is showing 96% charged and the MagSafe is showing Green.
    I have reset the SMC and PRAM with no effect. do you think the battery needs replacing?
    I did full discharge the battery and recharged it, it was charge to the full 100% and in system info it is saying that the battery is normal.
    I shutdown the laptop and the next morning it is showing 96% again Magsafe connected and not charging.
    Is this a Bug in Lion? or does the battery really need changing?
    I am going to the Genius bar tomorrow at my Local Apple store for memory upgrade.
    Thanks

    well I never knew that!
    Thanks again.

  • Iphone 4S charging but not showing up in itunes

    So I plug my iPhone 4S into the USB port on my Macbook and it charges but it does not come up in iTunes so i cannot add a song to my iPhone. I've restared the phone, and the computer with no progress. What's up?

    Hi Friend,
    In iTunes, open Edt >> Preferences >> Devices, and unmark the option that say devices can't automatically sync with iTunes. Then your device probably will appear in a couple of minutes.
    Hope it will be helpful

I don't understand how the icon randomly disappears. I've never encountered this problem before. If anyone has suggestions or had this problem please help!

    If your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or iPod nano (5th generation) is not recognized in iTunes on a Mac, you might need to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service. Look at this article, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747

  • Airplay icon not showing up on iTunes on Windows, but it is showing up on other devices

    I haven't used airplay in a while (few weeks), but went to play some music and icon is not populating. I have the latest version of iTunes and it might be the issue. Firewall and router are not the issues. It works on my iPad, iPhone, etc.
    I am sick of continuously having issues with Apple and these ******** problems? Why must I pay for a product that will fail to work?

    I've run diagnostics. Can't find device. I've tried resetting. The toggle has been turned on and off.

    Cable works fine on my other iPod. Reset by pressing menu and center button together for 6-10 seconds. Left it to charge for many hours. Started acting up while running. Suddenly the music stopped playing but my Nike + was still working for the rest of my run. Took it straight it home and plugged it in to the wall to recharge since the battery was fairly low. Looked like it recharged ok but then screen went blank and now does it not show up on iTunes, does not seem to recharge by the wall charger (apple wall charger plugged into a surge protector in India). I have turned the hold switch off and on many times.
    Sounds like a repair issue, which is not easy to do in India :(

  • I have my ipad plugged into my mac to charge, but it's not showing up in itunes.  Can i just unplug it without hurting it??

    I have my ipad plugged into my mac to charge, but it's not showing up in itunes.  Can i just unplug it without hurting it??

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W 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 (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

    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.

  • HT1459 Just bought a new ipod shuffle for my kid and cannot set it up because it does not show up in itunes. Also the charging light does not light up. what could be wrong, as i am able to see both my iphone and ipad on itunes on the same pc?

    Just bought a new 4th gen iPod Shuffle for my kid. Problem is I cannot do the initial set up, as the device does not show up on iTunes on my PC. Also the charging does not light up. Any ideas on what could be wrong, as I am able to see both my iphone and iPad on iTunes using the same PC?

    I also tried manually underlining a few things on the new iPad and when highlighting a paragraph, it would skip a few lines and the line would go through a few as well. Looks like a major iBooks glitch needs to be addressed here.

  • My phone is not showing up in itunes.  I want to sync it.  I have a MAC and I have restarted the phone, it's charged, I have the most current version of itunes.  What do I do now?  It says to reinstall itunes if you have windows but not for mac.  Help!

    With your phone plugged in, open Image Capture and see if the iPhone shows up.  If not, you are having a sync problem.  If it shows up in Image Capture, but not iTunes, I'd delete iTunes and reinstall it.

  • HT4310 why can I see a battery charging icon on one computer when my 4th generation ipod is connected, but not on another computer ?

    I have a fourth generation ipod. when I plug it into my windows 7 pc at work, the battery charge icon appears. when i plug the same ipod into my windows 7 pc at home, no battery charging icon appears. any way to get it to show?

    Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port at home?  Do you have any other devices that are connected via USB on your PC at home?
    I assume you are using the same cable you used to plug the Shuffle in at work?
