HT1665 My ipod does not charge on wall chargers or speaker/chargers made for ipods.

My sister is able to charge her ipod to the wall chargers and speaker/chargers made for ipods and my ipod touch will not charge on these.

See the not-charging topic of:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
Have you tried another cable?
Another charging source? Does iTunes see the iPod when you connect to your computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and cracked or broken plastic.

:-) the problem is solved. Thanks to a great typ in one of the other discussions with alt+cmd+S iTunes looks again like something I recognize. After removing the iPod from iMac and also from the connecting "holder", turning it on ad off, rebooting the iMac, maggic happens and the iPod now shows in iTunes and everything works just fine.

IPhone 3GS no longer recognized in iTunes and does not charge via wall

I upgraded my iMac to iTunes 9.2 when it came out.
My wife then upgraded her iPhone 3GS to iOS4.
Since then it is not recognized in iTunes and does not charge via the wall adapter.
I realize this topic crosses over with several ongoing discussions, but there are no 3rd party peripherals involved here.
The only major changes to our set up have been the itunes and iOS upgrades.
The battery is running down, any ideas to fix this, or other similar experiences welcome.

Went to the Apple store and they replaced the cable.

IPod does not charge or turn on but is recognized in Windows and iTunes

A couple of days ago after disconnecting my iPod in iTunes the iPod display went blank. It will not turn on nor will it display if it is charging if it is connected to the wall power adapter. I tried reseting it and I let it sit for 24 hours like the apples website said and nothing happened. What did happen is that Windoes recognizes it and so does iTunes and the hard drive spins and is acessible. I let reset it and let it sit another 24 hours and it still does not turn on nor will the power adapter recognize it. The display does not appear broken and it physically looks good.
Any ideas?

The only thing you haven't mentioned is whether you've tried to restore it. If that doesn't work, it looks like it will need service.
Restoring the iPod to factory settings.
Put the iPod into disk mode first.
Putting iPod into disk mode.
Restoring erases the iPod hard drive, so you will need to reload your songs from iTunes.

IPod does not charge nor shows up in Windows or iTunes

I bought a iPod nano 2Gb two days ago. After some trouble shooting I got it to work and was able to get some music on the iPod. After using the iPod yesterday I wanted to recharge the battery.
Since the computer was still on I reconnected the iPod the same it was connected when I synced it. This time however the iPod was not recognised by Windows or iTunes nor does it recharge.
So far I've tried:
- reset the iPod;
- restart the computer;
- reboot the USB drivers;
- re-install iTunes;
- restart iPod service on computer.
So far nothing worked. Can anyone help me??

Yesterday I tried to completly deplete the battery so now the iPod really doesn't do anything since it does not want to charge via the usb.
Before depleting the battery I tried forcing the iPod in disk-mode and then connect it to the PC. Results, nothing happened when connecting the iPod...
This evening I'll try the suggestion of adding usbstor.sys and usbsor.inf and restart the pc and see if that works. (link to that suggestion: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=785480&tstart=30)
If that fails I think I'll just return the iPod and see if I can get my money back. It only worked once since I got it three days ago.....
Still open to suggestions if anyone got some.

3rd Gen Ipod Will Not Charge on Wall Charger

I have a 3rd Generation non- click-wheel Ipod.
Stock Cords
Never opened up
Dock
No way of charging it on my computer (usb 1.1 and 4 pin firewire)
I recently bought a wall charger, and I plug it in, and nothing happens. I am really anxious to use my ipod (I got it used) but I can't charge it. I have put it on a firewire and I has charged that way. But I have never charged it via usb or through my charger. Is my USB cord broken or is it my Wall charger (or possibly the ipod)? Any help or other ways to charge it under $40 USD would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Please check out the following
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60971
If your iPod is (dock connector) it will not charge over USB2. Charging this unit requries a built in 6 pins firewire port or the firewire iPod Power adapter

Ipod will not charge with wall charger or computer

Until maybe 2-3 days ago, my ipod was working fine. Now, when I plug it up to be charged, it won't. Not with the wall charger or the cable that connects to the computer, which are all Apple products and charge my ipad. The computer won't even recognize that anything is plugged into it. There are no error messages. Any help?

Hmm, that's weird. I've used the iPad charger to charge my ipod before with no problems. It's more like wall adapter that I can insert the Apple usb into.
But, I've used both cables, the one that came with the ipod/pad and neither are working.

Ipod does not charge

When I plug my ipod into my computer it does not light up and charge. It just quit one day and started back only one time and I had to reset it. After I reset it I could not get it to charge again.

No, it shouldn't or couldn't have unless you were using a non Apple branded USB charger that was designed with a high amperage output than what the Nano could handle.
Given all the information provided, it seems as though your iPod's battery is shot and in need of replacement. You can choose to have Apple replace the battery for a flat fee if you'd like, or you could send it to a third party repair service center and have them do the same job for a bit cheaper.
Here is Apple's pricing.

A Google search for "iPod battery replacement" should give you a plethora of results to work through.

My Ipod does not charge when I plug it into my computer.

Does anyone know why? I have a 3rd generation 15gb ipod running on a windows computer. It seems to eat up my battery if i try to charge it in my computer.

3rd generation iPods don't charge over USB.

4 Th generation ipod does not charge?

It will sync but nothing else. Does the battery die on these things all of a sudden?

Does the non-connecting iPod charge and sync via USB to a computer?

My iPod does not synch after updating to 8.1 and asks for more GB's??

I updated to 8.1 and tried synching my music library. It went to step 7 where it was waiting for changes to apply but stalled there. I plugged the iPod again and it then said it needs 15.32 GB's more. I have around 2,200 songs on a 32GB iPod. I've never gotten this message and deleted some songs/albums but still the same message. The songs on my iPod are all unable to play

HT4623 My ipod does not have a "software update". I have reset the ipod and now can't download anything to it.

I have reset my ipod and cleared all the info on it. Now I am unable to download any apps. It says I need to update the software but I don't seem to have that capability. What do I do?

Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

Did you try a hard reset? Hold the On button and the Home button until it powers down but continue to hold until it begins to power up again. See if that brings any success.
