  • How do I fix my ipod classic that says very low batter after I have charged it and the problem persists?

    I have an Ipod video 30g that says Please wait very low battery. I charged it for about a day and the problem persists. I've tried using some solutions on the internet and none of them worked including: holding the menu and select, holding select and play to put it in disk mode with no avail. Is there anyone who can help me!!!

    Have you read this post written by another forum member?
    The Sad iPod icon.
    However, as your iPod was purchased on Boxing Day, why not get it serviced under the warranty?
    You can arrange online service here.

    Or if an Apple store is near you, take it there and have them check your iPod.

  • My 5G iPod stays on the "very low battery" screen, and won't do anything.

    Before you ask, I've been through page after page of Google links, and I've checked every single forum related to Apple or iPods.
    When I plug it into my computer, or any device with a USB port, i get this screen:
    http://a248.e.akamai.net/7/248/51/609701196880010/www.info.apple.com/images/kbas e/60970/60970_6.gif
    Doesn't show up on the PC at all. The iPod won't turn on or do anything at all unless it's connected via USB. I recently bought a new battery for the iPod, and it worked for a few days on the small charge it came with, so it's not the battery.
    I've unplugged and plugged it back in, I've disconnected and reconnected the battery, I've done the hard reset key combination.
    I've been working on this for 4 hours... I'm desperate.

    Bump.

  • HELP!!! Very Low Battery

    Whenever I plug my iPod into a computer or charger it says very low battery. But I can keep it in overnight and it will either shut down or still say very low battery. Whats going on?

    I took mine to the apple store in Chandler, AZ and they said it's a USB charging issue. The dude had a double cable that he hooked my ipod into. One side was USB the other was Firewire. He got it to work via firewire, but not usb. He said that firewire is soley for charging, not transfering data. It worked for a while. I dropped it off at home before I went to work, once I came back home it did the same thing. I have a friend who has an old firewire cable for his older ipod. I'm going to try that.
    So, we have learned that the problem is caused by the battery draining all the way, right?
    Apple must know about this since it's a pretty common problem. Why aren't they doing anything about it? If it's a common defect, then why no recall or anything?

  • Very Low Battery / Resetting issue - lets make Apple fix this!!!

    There appears to be a lot of posts within the last few weeks about the "Please wait, very low battery" message and constant resets EVEN ON A FULL BATTERY. I too have begun to experience this problem. I can only think that there is some kind of bug that has been introduced with the latest firmware and itunes combo. Can anyone that it experiencing this issue, PLEASE put your experiences in a reply to this thread. As an addition to my post below, I have also heard that using the prior version to the latest Itunes in conjunction with the latest may also be the root of this problem. I have been using two itunes, the latest at home and a slightly older one at work. Can anyone shed anymore light on this possibility?
    This is from a reply post I made earlier tonight:
    I noticed my ipod 5th gen 60 gig was strangely in the red on battery life, so I connected it to my macbook pro and answered a few emails. I then noticed out of the corner of my eye that the ipod resetting. Weird! I had never seen it do this while attached to the computer. So, I went back into itunes and it said something about not disconnecting the device physically - some how the pod had reset and disconnected itself. So, I re-attached it, and moments later, it reset again. Instead of attaching to the computer, I attached the pod to a wall powered usb charger (non-official). After a few minutes, the pod said it was fully charged (weird), so I disconnected it. I thought I should check to see if it was playing music ok and started playing a song. It seemed ok, so I skimmed through a few tracks. Soon the ipod reset itself and started to continuously reset as if in a loop. After several reset attempts (menu and select) I was presented with a "Please wait, very low battery" message screen...
    Hmmmm. I thought I should attach it to the wall charger and leave it to re-charge, thinking that the battery must be just plain out of juice. I got past the very low battery message and into the menu with a reset. Strangely, the battery showed as being fully charged... Disconnecting the pod and playing several songs again, the unit reset and showed the low battery message... Leaving the pod attached to the wall charger, even though it said it was fully charged, didn't remedy the problem. More resets when playing a song or two.
    Initially I thought that it was a faulty battery. But, before I jumped to conclusions, I googled the above message. This showed me that this is a reasonably common issue with several possible causes. Some of the suggestions to remedy the issue included:
    * Reset the ipod - nope, same problem
    * Restore the ipod - did this first up... No go
    * Put the unit into disk mode attach and restore - nope
    * Drain the battery completely and then re-charge on wall charger - nope
    * Open the unit, disconnect the battery, and re-attach - I really thought this would work, but nope.
    * Disconnect unit, insert wall powered usb, start unit to reset it - nope
    * Buy a new battery - NOPE, same thing keeps happening even with a FRESH battery!!!
    * Put the unit into diagnostic mode and then charge... This kind of worked in the fact that it actually charged the new battery...
    It appears to me that the battery status is all out of whack. The OS seems to think that the battery is completely full, and hence, doesn't take a charge. Equally, even though it says there is a full charge, after the unit plays one or two tracks (requiring a few harddrive seeks I suppose) it will exclaim that there is no battery remaining, reset loop and eventually enter "very low battery" mode. It does the latter even if the battery is new and appears to have been charged (via the diag screen).
    So, where to from here... Well not entirely sure, but I reckon that what I have to do is drain the fully charged battery WHILE the unit is active. Perhaps then, it will re-calibrate its internal battery meter... Right now, I have been able to put the pod into disk mode and it is actually showing a battery icon WITHOUT the fully charged symbol (the little plug icon). It also shows a slight depletion in battery remaining. My hope is that this depletion will get bigger over the next few days and, if it does, it may right the funny loop-like state it is in.
    Has anyone got ANY other ideas as to how to fix this problem. As a side note, I updated the pod to firmware 1.3 recently. I am considering a restore using an older firmware. Where can I track down 1.2? Can I press the option key and click restore to choose an alternative restore image from the 1.3 already in itunes?
    Any suggestions/help is EXTREMELY welcome as I am almost about to give up...

    I think my problem actually might be the same ... the other day it was full battery one minute, and the next it was saying "Please connect to power,low battery". I wasn't near a power source, so i just left it. Then it started making this funny whirling sound and the screen went silvery blank, so i figured it was the hard drive crashing. I hooked it up to the computer overnight and the next day I could at least get the apple on the screen to show up and the computer would recognize it somewhat. When it's hooked up to the computer it goes from the apple screen, to please wait, very low battery, to the regular screen with a fully charged battery sign, to the "do not disconnect" screen with the battery charging.. When the "do not disconnect" screen appears, sometimes the computer recognizes it. But when it comes up it first says that an unknown error (-124)has occured and the ipod cannot be synced. And then it says the disk cannot be read or written to. After I press okay again, the screen goes to the apple and back to the please wait very low battery screen... and then in tunes it says the ipod cannot be synced because the required folder cannot be found. Then it comes up again and says iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPod. Go to the Summary tab in iPod preferences and click Restore to restore this iPod to factory settings. Now I would try to do that, but I don't have a summary tab in the preferences, if the preference tab they refer to is under the edit section. For the couple of seconds the my ipod settings appear on the screen, the files on it aren't even the same as before. It says I only have 7.78GB of only songs on my 30GB. Not only do I have more than 7.78 GB of songs normally on my ipod, I have videos and games that also should appear. Everytime it reconnects however, the GB go down? Now its at 6.07GB
    It also makes this beeping sound randomly. Sometimes it when the ipod goes into the very low battery screen, but sometimes it beeps during the apple screen, or sometimes during the do not disconnect screen.
    The most frustuating thing for me is that about mid-March I sent my iPod away to get a new battery before my warrantee was up. I got it back the first week of April, good turn around period, but instead of getting my old ipod back, I got a refurbished one. Now this is happening to it, and my warantee is already up. I know it can't be the battery that's wrong with it, there may be something wrong with it, but I'm sure they know better than to give me an ipod with a dead ipod.
    Now it's coming up as 5.77 GB . . .
    When it first happened, I was hoping that I could simply hook it up to the computer and click the restore button. This is impossible however because I can never get to the restore button before the computer unrecognizes my ipod.

  • Please wait very low battery then logo apple

    i have an ipod classic
    which gives very low battery then it gives apple logo then tafer that it gives a sing and it said (apple.com/support)

    If it is just a fully discharged battery, you need to connect it for about 30 minutes before the iPod Screen comes back to life and show the charging symbols.
    But since you have plug it in for 3 hours, and there is no sign of life, then have the battery replaced, connecting it for 30 hours is also of no use, as the battery wont charge, and the moment you disconnect it, the iPod will go off.
    Have a nice day!

  • I dropped my iPod, now it won't get out of recovery mode!

    I dropped my iPod, now it won't get out of recovery mode! If i don't connect it to the mac, it has the msg in 4 languages saying "connect to your computer. Use iTunes to restore". When i connect it to mac, and itunes is open, it says ipod needs to be restored, so i press the restore button, the progress bar starts moving but never finishes, like it's frozen.
    Can anyone help

    guess there's no one that can help.

  • HT1435 hi there i have this problem with my ipod on the second picture which says "Pease Wait Very Low Battery" but it will not charge at all or turn on, sync with computer anybody any ideas.

    Hi there I have an ipod classic which will not charge and keeps saying "Please Wait Very Low Battery" can anbody help me its just sad to see it go.

    Normally it takes 2 to 4 hours to fully charge an iPod Battery, using a USB2.0 port or wall charger.
    Even if the battery is dead, you can have it replaced at Apple Store for about US$60 or at any 3rd Party Ipod Service Center for less.

  • Trouble starting ipod (very low battery message) and loop

    Hello. I am having troble to start my ipod classic 5 generation. The message "please wait very low battery" (with an ipod with sad face) appears but the weird thing is that i just used it yesterday and i left it fully charged...but well. Then i try to charge the battery with a wall charger but it starts on a loop passing from the black screen with the apple logo, then it goes to the message "go to itunes/ipod/support" web site. and then it says again "please wait very low battery" just for a second and then it goes back to the black screen with apple logo and does this again and again. Then i tried to connect my ipod to the computer, after i do this it shows the message "please wait very low battery" and stays like this forever. I have tried ALL the suggestions, from trying to restart the ipod by clicking the middle button and the menu button at the same time (several times) and then clicking the middle button and the play button so it gows to the disk ode and nothing. I tryed witting it on the right corner and nothing. I already tested 3 usb different cables and nothing. It is not my usb port (i made tests with an ipod touch i have and works fine). Daaaaaaaaaarn!!! I really dont know waht to do now.
    Any advises please!!!!?
    Thanks a lot!

  • My 30gb keeps restarting/rebooting and say "please wait. very low battery" help?

    ITs has the Apple Logo Then It Make Funny Mechanic Sounds Then Say "Please Wait. Very Low Battery" The Screen Never Lites Up and It Does the same process over again rebooting with the same screens. never has the chance to connect to computer and at one point said www.apple.com/support. i don't the OS

    Here's what I did today and so far so good.
    I charged the ipod using a firewire cable, which seems to work for charging as does my other auxiliary chargers, car etc. When on these powered chargers the ipod works fine, but no ability to sync.
    Did many resets while on the charger.
    I put the hold button on and very quickly swapped from the firewire to the USB, low and behold it boots, syncs and charges.
    I did a full restore and disabled disk use.
    It's syncing now, I'll let you know if it messes up again.

  • I have an IPOD Classic 30GB.  I thought the battery was not recharging so I bought a new battery and had it installed.  The device will come on and has a message on the screen "Please wait.  Very low battery."

    I have an IPOD Classic 30GB.  It would not stay on but a few seconds so I thought the battery was not recharging and bought a new battery.  I charged the new battery overnight and when I turned it on I could see the apple for only a few seconds and it would go off.  I tried the trouble shooting suggestions and reset the device. The screen is frozen with the message "Please Wait.  Very low battery." I also thought it might be a problem with the display but since it is on now, I'm not sure what is going on with it.

    There are several types of iPods that are "30GB," 3rd gen ("dock connector"), 4th gen ("click wheel" or "photo"), and 5th gen ("video").  This documents shows the iPod models

  • My ipod 60gb classic is showing as fully charged until I connect it to my pc when it comes up with the error message, 'please wait very low battery' and the little wheel goes round and nothing happens, can anyone explain why this is and what i can do?

    My ipod 60gb classic is showing as fully charged until I connect it to my pc when it comes up with the error message, 'please wait very low battery' and the little wheel goes round and nothing happens, can anyone explain why this is and what i can do?

    I have worked my way through the assistant and nothing works. I have tried connecting in disc mode but although the screen on the ipod is showing that the device is charged and that it is in disc mode as soon as I connect it to the computer it comes up with the error message 'please wait very low battery' and stays like that until I disconnect when it appears to be OK again. I have tried on both pc and mac.
    BTW the ipod is an ipod video not classic if that makes any difference.
    Thanks
