Charger not "supported by iPod touch"

Apple, this is the 5th charger i've bought THIS ******* YEAR. 4 months has it been? yeah.. it has.
I bought this charger 3 weeks ago, and it worked fine until today. I have not updated my software, and i am currently running iPod touch 6.1.2.
I'm tired of being forced to buy new **** from you guys all the **** time. STOP ******* WITH MY CHARGE SOURCES. I'm not buying another one, fix this **** now, or i'm done with Apple for good. You shouldn't force me to buy 5 different chargers, and change them every month. I've spent more on your chargers than I did for my iPod. My iHome, which is what I have now, won't even work.

  • Charging not supported 2gen Ipod touch

    I have JVC KS-PD100 cd player for my car that has built in Ipod contol.I had to purchase a JVC cable to connect my 2gen Ipod touch 16gb.When connected the screen says charging not supported and i am unable to play the songs on my ipod also..the display screen justs says checking..checking.Has anypne else had an issue similar to this and is there any know fix for this? HELP

    yes. lots of people have had this problem. and no, i'm afraid there isn't a solution.
    many third party apps will not charge the new ipod touches, and some people have reported that they also won't play songs.
    the charging thing is something to do with apple moving from firewire charging to usb charging.
    if your car has an aux socket, then you could get a cable which will connect to your ipod's headphone socket and play it through there (i use one to play my ipod through my speakers at home if i want to run the battery down (i have a first gen, and it will play through the dock, but sometimes i want to run the battery down.)

  • My Ipod Touch is giving a error message of 'This accessory is not supported by iPod Touch' whenever I dock it in my Bose Sound Dock and refuses to play but will charge the device?? am screaming mad and want to be able to play audio thru using the 2

    my ipod touch will not play music thru the Bose sound dock and displays the message 'this accessory is not supported by iPod Touch' how can I fix it?

    "This accessory is not supported" usually refers to an inability to charge the iPod, but the music should still play throguh the Bose dock. My iPod Touch works this way.
    However, when the Bose refuses to make any sound, I unplug it from mains power for one minute. Then plug it back in and try again. This always sorts out the sound issue, but of course, it still will not charg the Touch.
    What happens in your case?

  • My iPod Touch keeps displaying the message 'This accessory not supported by iPod touch.' When I've used it w/this device multiple times, it's happening more and more frequently now. Anyway to dismiss this message for good? Because the iPod still plays .

    That message is usually due to a bad cable.

  • Sony icfcs10ip "not supported" by ipod touch

    My son has a 4th generation iPod touch. We purchased a Sony icfcs10ip iPod docking station for him in August 2011. It worked great with his iPod Touch.
    Now it will not work. In fact, it gives a message "This Accessory is Not Supported by iPod touch." However, the Sony dock will work just fine with my iPhone4 and my daughter's 4th generation iPod touch. As far as I can tell, my daughter's iPod is identical, although hers is newer than his. My son's iPod was purchased in December 2010 and my daughter's iPod was purchased in July 2011. They are both 32 GB iPod Touch models, 4th gen.
    You might think the problem is with my son's iPod, but it will work with two other iPod music docking stations, one which is very old (Apple Hifi) and one which is very new (a Philips music dock that is only 2 months old).
    His iPod is updated to the latest OS (version 5.01). I tried doing the "reset all settings," which does everything but erasing all the content. My son doesn't want me to do the full reset because he is worried that he will lose all his levels on the games he likes to play.
    Is there any difference between a 4th gen iPod touch purchased in Dec. 2010 and a 4th gen iPod touch purchased in July 2011? Was there a software update that made the Sony dock unusable?
    TIA for any help!

    Stop shouting!!!
    We are ipod users just like you.
    All caps indicates shouting, is rude and is difficult to read.
    If you want help, yelling at those that would help is a terrible way to go about it.
    Contact ihome and ask if the unit is compatible with your ipod.
    Try the basics form the manual:  restart, reset, restore.
    turn off your caps lock

  • Charger Not Included with iPod Touch?

    In December, I have received an iPod Touch. But when I looked in the case, I was surprised to see that there was no charger! There was a cord for syncing onto your computer, but not a charger. I was forced to use my iPad chargers to charge my iPod Touch, and I decided that I needed one.

    What's wrong with using my iPad charger is that when I charge one product over night, then the other product ha no percentage.
    It should work on your Windows computer or any USB source.  Is it plugged into a USB port on your computer or a powered USB hub?  If so, it should charge.  Try another port.  Make an appointment at the genius bar at the Apple store.  Perhaps your cable is faulty.  Or there is a hardware problem with the iPod.
    BobjbkIn, I have no idea what a USB is. Whenever I hook it up as of the way I would to sync it, then nothing happens.
    Don't use the port on your keyboard or on a hub.  Try a port directly on the CPU.
    Philly_Phan, I don't know what a hub is.

  • JBL docking station "This accessory is not supported by iPod Touch"

    I've had a JBL docking station that was working just fine with my iPod touch for several years and now I'm getting an error that the accessory is not supported.  Does anyone have any idea what I have to revert back to so that I can use my docking station? 

    DId it happens after updation to iOS 5?  You can try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    However, it could be that the dock is not compatible with iOS 5.  You will have to wait until either Apple or JBL issues a firmware update.
    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.

  • HT1386 I have IPod touch running iOS 5.1.1 and Windows 7 with iTunes 11.0.4.4. When I connect the IPod to my PC, iTunes recognizes it but before synching can get very far, it is interrupted by "charging not supported on this acc." Now what to do?

    I'm having trouble with the wi-fi synch for iTunes and would be happy if I could just synch by the USB cable. With the new iOS, the connection to iTunes seems to get broken every time the dreaded "charging not supported with this accessory" appears, which is only a few seconds into the synch. Since my PC is obviously not an Apple brand charger, IPod won't stop producing this message. Using the Dismiss button doesn't resolve the issue because synch has already stopped. It looks like the hardwire to PC option is now dead.

  • Windows 7 does not recognize my iPod touch 5--doesn't even charge the device. HELP!

    My computer at work will not recognize my iPod touch generation 5.  I've had increasing problems and now today when I plug it into the USB port, it will not recognize it.
    I've uninstalled all the Apple, iTunes etc. software and reinstalled, I've rebooted the computer 3-4 times.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the USB driver.
    It will not work.  Ideas? 

    Did you do everything here:

  • ITunes not recognizing original IPod touch after new one installed

    I tried to set up new IPod touch but itunes wouldn't recognize it. Downloaded latest version of itunes. Was able to set up new IPod touch but now old touch not being recognized by itunes. Went through the troubleshooting guide with no positive results. Old (unreconized) touch is fully charged. Restarted computer. Restarted itunes. Changes usb ports. Nothing working. Any ideas?

    Hi Jim,
    Thank you for your reply to my posting about iTunes not recognizing my iPod Touch after upgrading to Leopard.
    iPods & Finder. Some other postings incorrectly lead me to believe that the iPod would show up in the "Finder". Thanks for setting me straight on this.
    iTunes Not Recognizing iPod Touch. Prior to your posting, I had already read the article you referenced (to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service per article "http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747").
    Prior to your posting, I had also read other articles in various "Apple Discussions" (forums) that suggested this recognition problem could be resolved by uninstalling/re-installing iTunes 8.0.2. Some implied that you could just re-install iTunes 8.0.2 right over the currently installed one without bothering to uninstall it.
    Based on those postings, I "gambled" last night and simply downloaded and re-installed iTunes 8.0.2 (without uninstalling it first). I noticed during the installation that the Apple Mobile Device agent you referenced was also re-installed. Well, my gamble paid off! After the installation (and a reboot?), iTunes onces again RECOGNIZED my iPod Touch.
