Can I still purchase a charger for ipod shuffle 2nd generation

I lost my charging port for my ipod shuffle 2nd generation. Can I purchase a replacement?

That's the USB cable with a "mini-dock" at the iPod end? If so, I don't see it listed at the Apple Store, but it looks like this
http://www.amazon.com/Apple-shuffle-Generation-Discontinued-Manufacturer/dp/B000 IK5Z8E
There are third-party replacements that cost less. Some have the little dock and others have just the connector, for example
http://www.amazon.com/eForCity-Cradle-Insten-Charger-shuffle/dp/B0062GM216
http://www.amazon.com/Fosmon-Charger-Adapter-Shuffle-Generation/dp/B00DP7JEIE
NOTE: The USB docking cable for the current 4th gen shuffle has a different connector that does not work with the 2nd gen shuffle. So make sure the product you get is described as being for the 2nd gen shuffle.

HT1481 How to find a driver for iPod Shuffle 2nd generation

Could someone please direct me to a place I can find a driver for a 2nd generation iPod Shuffle? In Windows 7 it says Device not Recognized, unknown driver. In device manager says there is no driver, I've tried everything. I would really like to use this again.

The required drivers should be installed when you install iTunes. The latest version is available here

If the latest version of iTunes is already installed, this document has some advice

That is about normal. You can maximize battery life by changing some settings. See:

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for with a new battery for $79. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace your battery for less. Google for more.

Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. You can purchase a replacment for about $10

Charging problem for Ipod Shuffle 3rd generation

Hi all,
What is the average hours to fully charge my Ipod shuffle 3rd generation using USB cable and connect to my computer?
I have using this method for charging 2 days each times more than 3 hours but still showing orange blinking light.
Could you tell me what is the resolution.
Thanks in advance.

It's eject (not "reject"). It's the command for iTunes to unmount the iPod disk from the system, so that you can disconnect the iPod physically (without causing data errors). On an iPod with a screen, the iPod's screen says "Do not disconnect." On a shuffle, since it has no screen, the warning is the blinking amber light. When it's blinking, do not disconnect until it become solid.
In iTunes, the eject button looks like a triangle with a line below it. It is located next to the iPod's name, to the right. What happens to the iPod in iTunes, after you click the eject button? You say it "does not respond," but are you still able to access the iPod after clicking the eject button?
Another way to eject the iPod is using Windows Explorer or Finder on a Mac. Right-click on the iPod's disk icon, and select the command to "eject" it? On a Mac, it says "Eject [name of iPod's disk]." I'm not sure about the exact wording in Windows.

HT1477 can you charge a ipod shuffle 1st generation by pluging it into a computer

I was wondering if you could charge a ipod shuffle 1st generation by pluging it into a computer

It's either that, or plugging it into a USB power adapter...

My ipod shuffle 2nd generation is charging but not starting.

My Ipod shuffle 2nd generation 4 yrs old is charging when i connect it to the computer it blinks orange light then when i eject it, it shows green light. But afterwards when i start it nothing happens. It used to work very nicely before but now Its doesnt respond at all. I have reset it several times. Ipod software version is 1.0.4 and i use it in latest itunes. Please help.

That most likely problem is that the iPod's battery is worn out and not able to hold a charge anymore. So, it appears to charge while connect to USB for power, but a few seconds after it is disconnected, it goes dead.

I have an ipod shuffle 2nd generation. It is not showing up in itunes -tried restart, software updated What can I do

So frustrated, I have 4 ipod shuffles 2nd generations and I can't get itunes to recognize any of them. My software is 10.6.3 I have restarted. Plugged in the ipod usb first, then docked and turned off, then turned on. Changed USB ports, made sure the software is updated. HELP!

A couple of things that worked for me.
1. Download and run Apple's iPod Reset Utility:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/iPod_Reset_Utility_1_0_3_for_Mac
2. If this gets the Shuffle visible in iTunes, go into the Settings for the iPod and enable Disk Usage.

HT1510 What are signs of needing a new battery for an iPod Shuffle 2nd generation?

I have an iPod Shuffle 2nd Generation that is about 4 years old. Sometimes it won't turn on, charge, and even not show up on my computer when it's plugged into it. I put it on the charging dock and sometimes the light won't even come on showing that it's charging. Could that be the battery or the iPod itself??
I hope someone can help me!! I am severely lost without my music!!!!!!
Thanks!

Did it previously work properly and reliably with this computer? If it did, and it does not now, and nothing else has changed, such as connecting new USB devices to the computer, or using the shuffle through a USB hub (instead of connecting it to a direct USB port on the computer), then it may be a problem with the battery. A 2nd gen shuffle would actually be about 5 or 6 years old at this point.
If you have connected new USB devices to the computer recently, as a test, you may want to try shutting down (powering off) the computer and disconnecting all USB devices (including any hub), except standard keyboard and mouse (if used). Then start up the computer, run iTunes, and connect the shuffle to a direct USB port on the computer. Is there any difference?
If this is a new computer, it may be something else. Please post back...

HT1481 ipod shuffle 2nd generation, does not show up in window when plugged into itunes. Also, does not charge(no light comes on).

I have a ipod shuffle (2nd generation) that won't light up when plugged in to the power adapter. I have only used it a few times since I purchased it years ago. Also, when I plug it into my computer with itunes running, it isn't recognized at all, as in nothing happens when I plug the usb cable with ipod attached and on to it. Any help would be much appreciated.

but there is another unspecified error.
What is that error?
Are you sure she has a Shuffle? You mentioned a Sad Face.. that would indicate that the iPod has a display, which a Shuffle does not.

Problem with my ipod shuffle 2nd generation

My ipod shuffle 2nd generation was fully charged and is able to sync with my computer but when i turn on nothing happens it does not blink and no music came out what should i do?

It's not good to store a rechargeable lithium-based battery completely discharged for an extended period. The chemicals that make the battery work will age in a way can make the battery incapable of holding a charge. Since that's a 2nd gen shuffle, it's been sitting unused for about six years. I have a 2nd gen shuffle, and it still works well, but I've charging and discharging the battery at least once each month through normal use.
You may be able to have the battery replaced, but the cost (parts and labor) is likely to exceed the price of a brand new 4th gen shuffle (about $50).

IPod Shuffle 2nd generation HELP NEEDED !!!

I have an iPod shuffle 2nd generation, the years suppoort is up and apple have done their best to drop me when all I really need is some technical know how not a huge overhaul of my iPod shuffle! And so here I am my last resort to try and sort this very frustrating issue out.
Basically I loaded my suffle with songs and gave it to my girlfriend as a gift. We plugged it into the car (via usb) worked fine also the HD ready TV via the usb docking bay it comes with no problem!!! Sounds lovely so far, but alas the gadget was loved but not the music.
So we plugged it into my girlfriends laptop, loaded with music in iTunes (latest version). Synced it with this pc and reloaded the music from her laptop. Sounds easy so far but from then on it wont play in the car via usb or the TV!!!! This is so annoying and frustrating so typical of apple in my opinion! I have reset and restored the device umpteen times via iTunes even downloaded the restore software and ran it as an XP proggy as apple hasnt updated it to later versions of windows and still it wont work. The car says its an empty USB yet it plays fine in the car via the 3.5 jack but of coarse we loose all the functionality of the built in car audio control on the wheel etc! And using the device by taking eyes of the road could be disatrous for the misses! The TV shows iTunes folder, Music folder even 3 extra folders F0,0 F01 and F02 but all are empty according to it! But in iTunes obviously the shuffle is full and loaded and it plays fine via the jack plug!
And so can anyone help shed light why it worked fine through the USB bay supplied with the iPod in the car and the TV until we reassociated with another PC with latest version of iTunes installed. Can this be fixed! Or is it yet another Apple annomoly never to be fixed and brushed under the carpet of rotten cores!
We both run latest version of windows 7 ultimate with latest version download from apple of iTunes.
Sincerely!
Bhu

TS1369 Hello! I have an Ipod Shuffle 2nd Generation and it is not recognized by my Windows 8 based laptop. An error message of 'USB device not recognized' is shown. I have the latest ITunes version installed, and tested the dock in other pc's.

Hello!
I have a problem connecting my Ipod Shuffle 2nd generation to my Windows 8 based laptop. The computer doesn't recognize the Ipod and issues an error message saying 'USB device not recognized'. I tried uninstaling ITunes(latest version) and all other Apple software and reinstaling it back again, checked my USB hubs in the 'Device Manager' section of the Control Panel, you name it.
I could really use some help solving this.
I've turned to the troubleshooting section in Apple Support but it has nothing concerning situations in wich the device isn't even shown in the 'My Computer' folder.
Help a brother out, will you???

Found a solution in another forum http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-63733-ipod-not-detected-on-computer (a few posts down).
It was for an IPOD so you can see those details in the link.
Found how to reset a shuffle and inserted it into these instructions - did not have to follow his last steps.
- Turn off computer.
- Plug Shuffle into usb.
- Then you must reset your shuffle
To reset iPod shuffle:
Disconnect iPod shuffle from the computer (if connected).
Move the switch on the iPod shuffle to the OFF position. Note that when iPod shuffle is off, the green stripe by the switch is not visible
Disconnect iPod shuffle from the computer (if connected).
Move the switch on the iPod shuffle to the OFF position. Note that when iPod shuffle is off, the green stripe by the switch is not visible.
- Start computer and it should install the usb driver for the ipod automatically.
- Your i pod will say do not unplug so don't. then open itunes and it will be there.
I did not have to do these thing below – did not get error message and shuffle was displayed in Itunes. / LMc
Just remember to not only eject ipod from itunes but stop usb.
Go to the program icons near the clock and right click the usb icon and "safely remove hardware" will appear and click it.
Stop it and select "apple ipod".
