How long does it (ipod shuffle 1st gen) take to charge

I have an iphone 4, and this morning i found my old ipod shuffle. How long does it take? i want to know if it still works.

It could take up to 30 minutes before the Shuffle shows any signs of life.  I assume you are using the same cable that was originally included with the Shuffle when you purchased it?
How long has it been since it was last used.  If it's been an extended period of time, the battery may be totally shot on the device as an iPod's batteries need constant activity in order to build and maintain a charge.

    How long does an iPod touch stay disabled?

    As long as it says on the screen. If it also says connect to iTunes then yo have to restore via iTunes to regain use of the iPod
    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • Does the iPod Shuffle (2nd Gen) need to be fully charged...

    Does the iPod Shuffle (2nd gen) need to be fully charged (green light) to appear in my iTunes. I just bought one on eBay... not sure if it works. It's plugged into the USB port and the light is orange (solid, not blinking).
    Should I expect it to turn green before it will show up as a Device in my iTunes?

    So, the issue on this one was that I was not plugged directly into my computer - I was using a usb hub. Once I removed the hub and put the ipod shuffle (2nd G) directly into my hard drive it opened up iTunes and I was able to synch. It never did show a green light, until I unplugged it and put the ear buds in, turned on the "on" switch and there was a green light. I hope this helps someone else.

  • HT1510 my iPod shuffle 4th gen won't charge or show up in iTunes

    my iPod shuffle 4th gen won't charge or show up in iTunes when i plug it in to the back of the computer and when the off/on switch is halfway it gives me a solid red light on the iPod battery status light for about five seconds does anyone know what to do

    If you connect it to the Mac with iTunes NOT running, and run Disk Utility, does it appear in the sidebar as a "disk"?  Also, you can run System Profiler or System Information (depending Mac OS X version).  It is in Applications/Utilities/, but you can also run it from the About This Mac window.  Does the shuffle appear as a device under USB?
    The red light when you move the power switch to ON means very low charge in battery.  That probably means the battery is not getting charged when connected.  In terms of hardware, that could mean a bad USB port on Mac, a bad USB cable, or a bad connection on the shuffle.  In any case, power is not getting to the battery.  It might be a bad battery, but if that was the only problem, I think the shuffle would still appear in iTunes when connected.  That's why asked if it appeared in Disk Utility or System Profiler/Information; if it does, the connection is working (even though iTunes does not see it for some reason).
    You can make sure the USB port is working by using something else that is similar (like a USB flash drive) on the same port.  If you happen to have another USB cable, you also try to rule out a bad cable.

  • HT1477 ipod shuffle 3rd gen is not charging

    When I place my ipod shuffled 3rd gen into the charging dock it does not charge.   Other ipods are able to charge in the dock but not this particular ipod.   Is there some kind of reset besides turning off and on for the shuffle?

    Has this 3G Shuffle ever been able to charge from this particular dock or is the first time you have tried connecting it?  Does the dock's manufacturer state that the dock is capable of charging a 3G Shuffle?
    Does the iPod still charge when you connect it to a USB port on your PC/Mac or when you connect it to a USB wall adapter?

  • HT4743 how long does a purchased tv season series take to download?

    how long does a purchased tv season series take to download?

    The season does not download.  Individual episodes download when the user selects them.  The ATV (2nd and 3rd gen) have no appreciable onboard storage, everything is streaming.
    Honestly, content will download faster to iTunes on a computer, for there it can be streamed to the ATV on the same network via the Computers option on the ATV.

  • How long does an intial icloud back up take?

    how long does an inityial iCloid back up take on a new iPad?

    Solution - turn backup off. Just means you will not have a backup to restore from but if you dont have a few hours to wait every time you need to restore the backup and up to an hour to wait every time you sync then you wont care.

    How long does the 10.8.3 update take?

    It depends on your Internet speed. I have about 5MBPS and it took me 8hrs. If you have hi-speed internet I would say it would take about a hour.

  • I bought an IPOD shuffle (1st gen.) at a pawn shop and it is still synced to previos owners itunes acct. and I can put songs on it b/c I don't have their log in info. So how do I clear it out so I can sync it with my itunes acct.?

    OK..So I bought an older IPOD shuffle (1st generation) at a pawn shop. I never have had an itunes acct. So I set one up and plugged the IPOD into my laptop. Apparently the previous owners itunes acct. is still synced with it and I cant put any songs on it b/c I do not have their itunes acct. info (log-in). So my question is how do I clear their info( un-sync) out of this IPOD so I can then be able to put it on my acct. Its not letting me restore it to factory settings without their info either. HELP!

    iPods (except for iPod touch) are not linked to any iTunes "account."  They are associated with your iTunes library. The account in iTunes is your Apple ID, and that is used to buy and download content from the iTunes Store.  It is not required to use an iPod.
    The 1st (and 2nd) gen shuffle can only be used with one iTunes library at a time.  When you connect it, iTunes should prompt you to start using it with your iTunes library, and warn that the shuffle's existing content will be erased.  Have iTunes erase the shuffle, and it will be associated with your iTunes library going forward.  You can then add content to your shuffle.
    The need for the previous owner's Apple ID and password should only come up if you are trying to transfer existing content from the shuffle to your iTunes library, AND the previous owner had content purchased from the iTunes Store.  Just cancel out of that step, if iTunes asks.

  • Ipod shuffle 1st gen not recognized by pc

    Okay, so I have a ipod shuffle 1st generation that seems to hae no songs in it and it is not recognized by my pc or it does but I can't access it. On itunes after I plug it in my pc it says "iTunes has detected a damaged iPod . You may need to restore this iPod so that it can be used with iTunes. You can also try disconnecting and reconnecting the iPod" and after restoring it it says "The iPod could not be restored. An unknown error occurred ( 1442)". Maybe is it because i took it off from the usb port without using the proper way. Is it possible to to make it work again?
    It is running version 1.1.5 or ios 1.1.5 cuz idk and I have a windows 8 pc.

  • Request for a replacement USB cap for iPod Shuffle 1st Gen. Gifting the iPod my grandma for birthday.

    Hi,
    I have an iPod Shuffle 1st Generation 512Mb. I am planning to gift it to my grandma for her birthday but unfortunately, the I have lost the USB cap that covers the built in USB port on it. I have not had any luck finding it, and I was wondering if someone could kindly guide me to get a replacement please?  Contact me @ [email protected] and if it helps, I live in India so even if I need to order it online/or from overseas, that shouldn't be a problem. Please help.

    I'm confused... is your shuffle a white plastic thing that looks like a pack of gum, or an aluminum one with a clip.
    The reason for the confusion is that you said:
    "+I have only had the iPod for a little over 4 months+"
    If it's that new, Apple will replace it under warranty...however if it's a 1st Gen shuffle that's just that new to you, then it may be that the switch on the back is full of crud. It can be cleaned by someone adept with simple tools and at at following directions: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iPod/iPod-Shuffle/Hold-Switch/98/1/
