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...

  • I broke my charger for my ipod shuffle 2nd generation, where can I find a new one?

    I can't find a new charger anywhere

    This is the official Apple part

    It's somewhat expensive compared to the cost of a brand new shuffle.  There are plenty of third-party replacements that cost less, if you search eBay, Amazon, and elsewhere on something like "shuffle cable."  Some of the third-party cables have a dock and some just have a connector.
    It is VERY important that the product's description says it is for the 2nd gen iPod shuffle.  The 3rd and 4th gen shuffles use a cable with a different connector, so it will not work with a 2nd gen shuffle.

  • I need an audiobook for mi ipod shuffle 2nd generation

    I need an audiobook. I found some at Itunes, but it says that it works only for Ipad and Iphone. Still can download it for Ipod shuffle?????

    You are probably looking at ibooks, which are not audiobooks.  They are printed books and are for ipod touch/iphone and ipad only.
    Audiobooks are not for ipad and iphone only.  Make sure that you are looking at audiobooks, not ibooks.

    No, maybe you should get one but the reset of us can figure out how to use the internet and complex things like Google.
    What makes you think you need a new battery anyway? It should not be bad on an iPhone 5 and besides which Apple uses batteries from the same manufacturer that other makers do.
    And stop shouting at us you are acting like a spoiled child.

    The battery in the iPod is not user-replaceable. Take your iPod to an Apple Store or contact Apple Support and they can arrange replacement.

  • I need a new battery for my Iphine 4S

    i need a new battery for my Iphine 4S,,i looked on amazon but not apple brand

    Apple only replaces parts through their stores. I reccomend making a genius bar reservation first to see if there is a hardware problem covered under warrenty. If you have applecare and your battery has failed, they will replace it for free, if not it is 79.00. In fact I just went in due to problems with my 5's battery, they replaced it immediatly for no charge. It takes about a half hour at an authorized store.

  • 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

    hi MissErin!
    the best place to start with that message is here:
    iTunes for Windows: "Disk is locked" or "iTunes folder cannot be found" when installing or opening iTunes

  • Can I get a new battery for my ipod touch?

    my ipod touch will not charge. what do i need to do next?

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

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

  • Battery dead on ipod nano (2nd generation) What do I do?

    Dead battert on my ipod nano (2nd generation) What do I do? Should I get it replaced or just buy a new one?

    You have 1 of three routes if you want to get it replaced. Whether or not it is worth it is entirely up to you.
    1) Have Apple replace the battery in it for a flat fee.  See this page for pricinghttp://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/ and this page for setting up the service request. http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipod
    2) Locate and utiltize a third party service (there may even be some shops/service centers in your area).  I have no suggestions as to which one is better than another, so for now you'll have to Google for "iPod battery replacement" and you should get a number of results. This is slightly cheaper than the Apple route although a bit riskier in terms of having the job done right.
    3) If you consider yourself handy with small electronics you can purchase a new battery from an online retailer and use one of the numerous guides online to swap it out yourself.  I usually stick with http://www.ifixit.com for parts and step-by-step guides. Of course this route is the cheapest, but is the most difficult.

    Hey harley4550,
    It sounds like you're trying to restore your shuffle to factory settings. You can actually use iTunes to do so, the following article goes over how:
