Charing iPod with iGo charger

So I got the generic USB tip for the iGo charger. This is just a USB power port. I use a mini dock on my iPod to get line out while I'm in my car, and it has a USB in for charging. However, when I connect the USB it does not charge. Does anyone know how I can get line out AND charge my iPod?

In the computer does not have iTunes installed it can't sync to it. You can manage music on multiple computers but not sync everything to more than one computer. See:

Will Apple replace an iPod with broken charging port

My daughter has had her iPod for a year will Apple Repair or replace an iPod with broken charging port.

If still under warranty, Apple frequently says the damage is caused by operator error and would only be covered by an Applecare+ extended warranty.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following will replace the dock connector for less. Google for more.

Problem with igo charger on new 80 GB Classic

Just recently purchased a new 80 GB classic (upgraded from an old 20 GB clickwheel model). I had been successfully using an igo charger with tip #61 on the old 20 GB, but with the new 80 GB when I plug the igo charger w/Tip 61 into it, it briefly 'turns on' with the display, but does not indicate it is charging. I called igo and they said I needed a REV 4 #61 tip, sent that to me but it still has the same problem.. Apple has said they did change the charging circuit to the new 80 GB. My apple charger works fine, and my old desktop speaker unit also continues to charge. Only the igo does not work (I have multiple wall chargers/car chargers from igo and none of these will work with the new 80 GB classic). I travel a lot and love just bringing one small charger and multiple tips to charge the ipod/cell phone & PDA.
Anybody having the same issue and gotten around it?

What you're seeing is a problem with the Classics -- the scrolling is much less responsive than prior generations of iPods. Because of the lower sensitivity, you have a hard time scrolling fast enough to see the letters come up. They can if you really try at it, but it's not so easy. This is the only disappointment I have with my Classic.
ps Your 60GB is actually a 5th gen, not Classic.

Problem of my iPod with speaker/charger

I have bought a new charger and a pair of new speakers. I plug the charger to my iPod, it can charge my iPod. But when I want to play with the games in my iPod when charging, the monitor of the iPod doesn't work!! This problem also occurs when I plug the iPod to the speakers. After I unplugged the charger/speakers, it becomes normal again. Is it the problem with my charger/speakers, or the iPod? Plz help me! =]

Does the manufacturer say the accessary is compatible with the iPod touch y have (model and iOS)? Have you checked the manufacturer's support website?

HT1726 Charging iPod with mains charger or dock

When Charging an iPod Classic using a mains charger or an iPod dock (on a CD midi-system), do you simply remove the iPod when it's finished or is there a safe ejecting procedure like there is when charging from your computer?
I am being cautious as my last iPod stopped working when I removed it from the computer before it'd finished ejecting. Strictly speaking the iPod screen DID already say it was safe to eject (otherwise I'd not have removed it), but the line hadn't finished going across the iPod screen.
Thank You!

Yes it is fine to use that. See Using iPad power adapters with your iPhone, iPad, and iPod - Apple Support

Fried My iPod with Auto Charger

Hey,
My car charger actually sparked at the bottom port of the iPod, and left smoky residue there (probably fried some connectors and circuits - there was actually a smoky smell). It immediately made my iTrip inoperable. Now I bought a new iTrip, but it won't work. Headphones will work on it though. Am I SOL with making another iTrip work on this thing? I'm kind of p.o.'ed, because this is my second iPod, and I'm not ready to buy another one just yet. Any suggestions on what I can do?
Thanks.

It sounds like you may have a damaged iPod.
Have you tried docking the iPod to a computer? If the port is bad, you shouldn't be able to get a connection. If you can, then you may just have a partially broken port.
In either case, there are a number of iPod repair services that could at the very least let you know if the iPod is repairable.
And as for your car charger, I'd not use it if you can help it. Some of the 3rd party accessories are garbage, and it could be the root cause of your problem,

Us ipod with uk charger

Hi, I would greatly appreciate any help on my question...
I have a mini ipod that I bought in the States. Now in the UK, is it okay to get a uk charger and plug the ipod into it? or does it need to still go through a voltage converter?
I turn on my laptop a lot, through a voltage converter, just to charge the ipod and it seems like a lot of strain on the computer for a little task.
thanks in advance!

iPods all charge using the same voltage, regardless of where they were purchased. Also, Apple supply power supply units which work pretty much anywhere in the world.
As long as you can physically connect the power supply to the power outlet in your country, the iPod will charge.
To simply answer your question: yes, you can get a UK charger to charge the iPod you have purchased.

Can i charge 30gig ipod with blackberry charger?

it says on the charger dc output 5.0v > 0.5A.
it says on iPod 5-30v > 1A max
surely this should be fine but i dont want to plug it in without being sure. has anyone charged an ipod this way before??

Blackberry charger has a dock connector? 30GB iPOd charges through the dock connector so I don't think the Blackberry charger will work.

Charging a US iPod with UK Charger

Would it be possible to use a UK or European iPod Mini charger to refill the battery on my iPod (US) Mini?

Correction to Jeff's post. If the charger is a universal charger, like the original Apple sold charger, then his post is correct. However, if your charger is a third party charger, you have to check the specs on it to see what the input is rated for. Some may be universal but other may be specifically designed (to cut costs) to only take UK voltages.

Why is my 4th generation ipod touch not charge? I plug it into the computer and the wall and with 2 different usb cables and its not charging. When its plugged in it shows the icon for charging but the battery never increases and it dies once i disconnect

I have a 4th generation Ipod Touch. It has been working for months when yesterday the battery started acting werid. I was driving and it was connected with the usb charger cable to my car stereo when all the sudden my music stopped and the stereo could not recognize my ipod at all. When I got back home, I tried to charge it so it wouldnt die but even while on the charger in the wall the battery continued to die. I charged it over night (the first time I have ever charged it over night) desperately to have battery for a 4 o clock plane flight so I would have entertianment. The ipod died over night while on the charger. When I unplugged it from the usb charging cable I noticed that the icon telling me the ipod needed to be charged came up. So I plugged it back in. The charging thunder bolt symbol popped up next to the very small red strip on the left side of the battery indicating that the ipod had no charge to turn its self on. I tried plugging it in on the computer, the wall ac charger and a stereo system made just for the ipod that also pluggs into the wall. I have used 2 different cables, the result being the same that the ipod held no charge, and it wouldnt charge at all while on the charger, and it would imediately die once i take it off the charger.
I have not idea what has happened ....
Please help
THanks!

- While charging try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if still problem restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
- However, I really think that the iPod has a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. If defective Apple should give you a refurbished iPod.
