BATTERY:  Shows CHARGED when connected; DEAD once I disconnect...

Battery says charged, but really isn't...is completely dead.
I think my iPod nano had totally decharged. I tried recharging it, resetting, etc., and now - even while recognized by my computer - it says CHARGED, yet once I disconnect my USB from either computer OR external charger, it shows I am dead and says to "CONNECT TO POWER SOURCE IMMEDIATELY."
I'm frustrated and need any help or advice!!!
Thank you!

Same with me, Did your ipod nano ever come into contact with water

  • MBA battery does not charge when connected. Help!

    My MBA battery does not charge when connected to the charger. Ive checked the other threads and followed advice but nothing seems to help.. My battery health info is good, I've tried cleaning the magnetic pins of the charger, reset smc but it still does not charge. The light on the charger is green or does not come on sometimes, and it's the same for a few Power outlets. What else can I do? Would greatly appreciate any help! Thanks.

    It recognizes the charger intermittently. After cleaning, it showed the charger as connected but not charging the battery. I will try my friends charger later to see if it works. Thanks for your help!

  • Plz help! my ipod no longer gets charged when connected to my computer

    as the topic suggests, my ipod with video(5.5G) always shows that its fully charged when connected to my computer. but it wasn't like this a period of time ago, i wonder why. plz help me. i now dare not to transport more than 1g files to my ipod in case it would run out of battery and sth worse may follow...
    since my computer is old with a celeronA 533(overclocked to 760, not a big difference), i closed lots of the system services which i think are useless, maybe that's the problem? but which service should i start? ipodservice.exe is always running when i connect my ipod with my pc
    btw, i must say sorry with my poor english, hope you understand what i mean

    If you mean that when plugged in it shows the iPod being fully charged but when you disconnect the battery is actually dead, then you probably have a defective battery.

  • Ipad wont charge when connected to laptop but charges when connected to wall outlet

    ipad wont charge when connected to laptop but charges when connected to wall outlet

    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. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html

    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.

  • IPod rapidly loses charge when connected to USB 2.0

    I just bought a new iPod photo 20g and a new powerbook 1.67 15". When I hook up the new iPod to the firewire it charges but doesn't mount. When I hook up the iPod with the USB cables it rapidly depletes the full charge in the iPod in about 20-30 minutes. Although the charge indicator shows a full charge ( the picture of the plug) as soon as you unplug it is shows a low charge.
    I tried several cables, and they all do the same. I tried another powerbook and it acts the same way.
    If I hook it up to a PC via firewire I can format it for the PC and it charges and reads fine. But when hooked up to the USB is also shows a full charge but once you unplug it, it shows you its true charge which is empty or close to.
    Are the charging curcuits different for Firewire and USB? It should like I have a bad iPod. Any thoughts................

    I have also just bought a new 20gig iPod colour, and when in it's dock connected to my high powered USB hub, it fully discharges the battery. However, when connected to the back of my G3 B+W, the battery charges fine...

  • Annoying incessent beeps in videos / won't charge when connected to CPU

    First of all my battery couldnt hold a charge within 2 months of buying my 5G Ipod, so I sent it in and got a new one. The new one has a couple of problems, one of which the old one had as well.
    The one thing both iPods have not been able to do is charge when connected to the computer. They can connect fine, but if my battery is dead or low, it won't connect and I have to recharge it on my charger before connecting it to the comp. My old 4thG (Which died right after warantee expired) was able to charge on my comp.
    However my major issue is that my video's have loud and annoying beeping sounds throughout when I play them. I've done the 5 R's(many times), it does it for downloaded files as well as some official apple ones that someone suggested. It does not beep when TV-Out is selected but does start beeping as soon as I try to view it from the player. It does it to ALL my videos, ones that worked fine for my previous 5G. Audio files work fine.
    iPods have given me nothing but trouble as this is my 3rd one.

    The USB mouse and printer do not draw any current from the USB port, so there's no info there. As you've stated, since your USB HDD uses an external power, that's not helpful either. I'm out of suggestions except you can see if someone else has a USB-iPod connector to try on your MacBook. BTW, if your IPT has a volume control on the left side, it's a G2.

  • My "4" won't turn on, won't charge when connected to charger or computer.  I've tried to reboot and it still doesn't turn on, its never been dropped or had water damage.  My warranty ran out on feb. 23, help!

    My "4" won't turn on.  It won't charge when connected to a charger or to the computer.  It's never been dropped, or had any water damage.  It looks like its brand new! The warranty ran on on Feb 23rd, help!!!

    Hello Breejumpp,
    Try Reset ( No Data will be lost )
    Press and Hold the On/Off switch (On top your iPhone) and the Home Button (Button at the bottom of your iPhone screen). Hold both the keys simultaneously for atleast 10 to 15 seconds and you should see an Apple Logo coming up on your screen, once you see the Apple logo you can then release oth On/Off switch and Home button and wait for your iPhone's Home screen.

  • Satellite A500 - Battery light flashes when connected to mains power

    Win 7 Satellite A500 PSAM3A-03P00E.
    The battery light flashes when connected to mains power (intermittent fault), when I unplug mains and re-connect flashing stops and battery (high capacity) continues to charge.
    Also when battery light flashes the key board back lighting stays on when it should blank out and if the back lighting is off and the battery light starts flashing the key board back lighting doesn't turn on, all other functions seem to work fine.
    The battery charges and holds charge as it should (when light flashes battery doesn't charge).

    Hi
    Did you notice this issue from first day of purchase?
    Theoretically it could be possible that your battery starts to malfunction
    At the other hand an electronic issue might be possible too
    However, try this:
    Remove ac adaptor and battery. Then press and hold power buttons 30 sec long.
    Then insert the battery and connect AC adaptor again does it helps?
    By the way: is BIOS up to date? If not, perform an update.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    All fixed, the earth contact in the power jack was bent down allowing intermittent contact and limiting current. I bent the contact back up to where it should be and all is good.

  • My ipad wont charged when connected to laptop. HELP?!!!

    my ipad wont charged when connected to my laptop. Anyone know how to fix that. thanks, much appreciated
    Also, just noticed this now....i have it connected and its got no battery. It will shut off like it died (while connected to the laptop) and then after a few minuted it will turn on. with the battery icon saying "not charging"

    Chances are your USB port is charging but only when the screen is off. This is e behaviour i get from our pcs.
    Make a note of the battery level, plug it in and make sure the screen is off, after and hour check the battery level.
    It should have charged a bit but very, VERY slowly.
    Your computer port normally only delivers 500mha of power. Some modern macs deliver 1100mha. Anything less than 1000mha wont charge with the screen in.
    The iPhone charge delivers 1000mha and the iPad charger delivers 2100mha.
    So it not charging via the computer is normal.

  • IPod only charges when connect to the Mac

    My iPod will only charge when connected to the Mac.  It will not charge on any other cable or docking station.  And, yes, I have tested the various cables and docking stations with other devices and the issue is clearly only with this one device.  I am note sure what generation the device is, but it is old enough that it cannot run iOS 7.  It is on iOS 6.1.5.
    Thanks

    Then it seems that the other sources do not work satisfactorily. Do the other charging sources charge other devices?
