HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...

My phone needs to be restored and wont work when plugged into computer..help!!

I recently had water damage and dried the phone out. Now it will not turn on unless plugged into wall outlet and it tells me to restore with itunes...I go to plug into computer and does not work...why is this?

How can you not know your Apple ID?
You can recover it at https://iforgot.apple.com/appleid
If you can not recover it there, you will have to call AppleCare and speak to someone in account security.

There is a hardware problem. Whether it's worth it to you to have no working phone for 2 months until you can update vs paying for replacement/repair now is a question only you can answer.

My Ipod touch will only work when plugged into a itouch radio. When I take it out, it goes blank. Why can I do?

My Ipod touch will only work when plugged into an Itouch radio. When I take it out of the charger, it goes blank. The battery shows fully charged. It appears that the battery is no longer charging. What should I do?

Try a reset: Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost. If that fails, the battery may have gone kaput.

How to recover music? iPod only works when plugged into wall outlet

My iPod is probably 5 years old or so. It's been acting up for a while and I stupidly, did not back it up.
The battery was replaced this weekend so it works when plugged into the wall. It will not power on or do anything when not plugged into the wall. When plugged into the wall charger, it can turn on and says it is charging. It can be used then but as soon as it is unplugged, it's dead.
When it is plugged into the computer, it says "Charging. Please wait...". There isn't enough power from my laptop to power the iPod, so my computer doesn't even recognize it. It does not show up in iTunes.
On the brightside, I have a new iPod classic waiting to be used. However, I would VERY much like to get my 90gb+ off of my old iPod first. Is there a way to do this?
I'm at a loss. Some of the files are on there are not anywhere else. I have a few songs by a friend who lost them on their own computer.
Any help would be very appreciated!

Bump. Is there no way to solve this?

My iPod only works when plugged into a wall socket!

Anyone know why my iPOD only works when plugged into a wall outlet? I tried it on the Bose docking station and also my MacBook and it won't work!
Any ideas??

Sounds like a dead battery. You can have Apple swap out the battery for a flat fee or you can send it to a third party service center to have them do the same for job a little less.

Ipad mini wont boot up, just pings when plugged into charger

ipad mini wont boot up, just pings when plugged into charger

Hello lorvic9195,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
You can use the following article to troubleshoot your issue with your iPad not booting. I would suggest looking first at the "Power/Battery" section. The "Battery or charging issues" first and then the "Other issues".

Camera not working when plugged into certain USB ports

I just purchased a Creative Live! Cam for use on my dual G5 running 10.5. When I plug the camera into the USB port on the front of the Mac, it works fine with iChat.
However, when I plug it into the back of the monitor (older style Cinema display), it says it is in use by another application.
Any idea how to resolve this? The cable isn't terribly long and the machine is several feet away from the monitor, so I'd like to use the ones on the monitor. (Obviously it gives a power-error message when plugged into the keyboard, which is normal).
Thanks

Seems like it is a USB 2.0 or not problem

Nearly unused 2nd gen 4gb wont work unless plugged into computer or dock

I have a 2nd gen 4gb nano that my sister won a yr and a half ago, but just gave to me recently and still new in the box until a few days ago. After plugging it in and getting the message to update my itunes I upgraded to the most current version of itunes 8 and let the ipod charge overnight. The next day it says it's fully charged and I sync a playlist from my itunes to it, but the ipod only turns on when plugged into one of the usb ports on my computer and my roommate's docking station. As soon as i unplug it, the ipod turns off and will not turn on. Any ideas as to what is wrong and/or how to fix this?

Lithium ion batteries need to be exercised and obviously this one didn't get any.
You'll need a new battery: http://www.ipodjuice.com or Google for other 3rd party sites.

Mouse only works when plugged into a specific USB port

Hello. I'm using a HP optical mouse that connects via USB plugin.
HP PIN: 505062-001 Rev.A
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium SP1
It only has full functionality when plugged into a specific USB port on my desktop. I can't get it to work with any other ports or chained with a HUB plugged into the port it likes. All of my other USB devices work fine with those ports and my HUBs. The red light on the bottom lights up but the mouse pointer does not respond to movement and clicking the buttons does nothing either.
1) I'm confident, that it's not a problem with the desktop hardware
2) I'm confident, that it's not a problem with the mouse hardware
When the mouse is fully functional, it's displayed under Devices and Printers, in the Devices category as "USB OPTICAL MOUSE".
When connected with the other ports or through a HUB, it appears as TWO entries in the Devices category: "HID-compliant mouse" and - here's the suspicious part - "HID-compliant keyboard"
I suspect that something's up with the driver for the mouse. Any clues, as to which driver I need? Or, is the cause of the problem something else entirely?

Hello Tick_Noby,
Your mouse only works in certain usb ports.
Has the mouse ever worked in the ports?
You can go to device manager and uninstall the fake keyboard and the mouse and restart the computer.
It seems that the driver is not correct for the mouse.
Also reset BIOS defaults.
Turn off the computer.
As you turn it back on tap the F10 key. This will load BIOS setup utility.
Press F9 to load defaults.
Press F10 to save and exit.
When the computer boots back up, check to see if everything is working.
If it has not been to long since the problem started, you can run a system restore.
This will take the system back to when everything was working correctly without affecting your personal files.
Here is a link on how to do a restore.
Let me know how everything goes
Have a good day.

Works when plugged into wall outlet only

My ipod works only when it's plugged into the wall outlet. When I unplug it from the wall it works for about 2 seconds, says it has a low battery and dies. When it's in the wall it says it's fully charged. Can't reset, can't restore. Any ideas?

Let the batteryd rain fully, then charge it via USB.

My ipod touch 5th gen will not charge when connected to pc. works when plugged into wall

I just got my 5th gen ipod today, and when i plug it into my pc (and my roommate's) they make the sound as if something is connected, but my ipod does not charge. When I plug it into my wall charger, it works fine. I've tried multiple cables, and multiple PCs, but it makes no difference. The weirdest thing though, is when I restart my computer, when it is about to close windows, it starts charging for a few seconds, then turns back off. This is so confusing. Any ideas?

Sounds like the computer's USB ports do not provide enough current to charge the iPod when the screen is on. I would connect a partially discharged iPod to the computer for a couple of hours and see it it is charged.

Phone suddenly 'dies' when plugged into charger

Hi, I have had my Z3C for about a week and I only started noticing this problem in the past 2 days.
When I plug the phone into a charger and turn on the power for the charger, any app which is running will automatically be closed. (Same thing happens when I remove the charging cable)
However, what troubles me most is that sometimes, the phone 'dies'. When I turn on the charger, the display will slowly fade out with black horizontal lines across the screen unitl the whole screen is off. It does not matter what app I'm running or if I'm simply at my lockscreen. (Yes, watching the lockscreen suddenly fade out as the LCD goes off is kind of scary) Any attempt to 'rewake' the phone by pressing the power button will not work. Holding down the power button only results in a brief vibration of the phone.
Only after about a minute, when I press the power button again then am I greeted by my lockscreen. Throughout this whole period the charging LED remains on.
Is there something wrong with my phone or is it a normal occurence?

That doesn't seem normal, you should contact your local Xperia care

Battery instantly drains when plugged into charger

A few days ago I went to plug in my BB at 1/4 full battery and when I did, the screen went blank, but the key pad was still lit up. I tried pulling the battery, but nothing turned on. I left it for a day and then tried it in my car charger, which charged it a little, and made me able to atleast turn it on, but the battery was completly drained. But I took it into my provider anyways and asked them to take a look at it. But as luck would have it, it worked perfectly for them with all 3 types of chargers (wall, car and usb). I brought it home and it charged fine with the wall charger. But today it did the same thing...Does anyone know what could be wrong?

I don't know if it's the battery, the microUSB charge/data port, firmware or electronics ... but my 8220 Pearl Flip is now a BRICK! It's happened before that it dies and fails to light up when the charger or sync cable is plugged in but at some point battery re-insertion would start the charging. Either the Canadian engineers or the Mexican factory workers have messed up badly with this device. If it ever powers up, I'll try removing every app
As an experienced PC technician, I conclude that a BlackBerry Mini External Battery Charger might be the only solution until RIM provides a fix. Get a spare C-M2 battery unless you want to carry the external charger with you and don't mind waiting for it to build up a charge. I've just ordered both on Amazon.
Found these 3 posts: ["I talked to a sales rep at TMobile about this, and she just said, "Well, just keep your phone charged and you won't have that issue." Hmmm, you think? My god, I charge my phone nearly every night, but I also use it a lot for work. If the battery gets low and I'm at work and still need to use it, then what? I've never had a phone where I couldn't just plug it in and keep using it. Very frustrating. Anyway, my question for people who already have the Flip is, does that phone have that issue, or is it possible to plug it in and use it, even if the battery indicates that it's low when you plug it in to charge? I'd hate to buy another phone that doesn't allow that."]
["I just got the 8220 flip two days ago. After charging, the battery lost more than 50% of the charge in less than 12 hours! I was told that this thing only needed to be charged ONCE A WEEK and that if it doesn't hold the charge, it needs to be sent back.... I am thinking that it's not just my flip that's defective, perhaps it's the whole product line."]
["I am having the same issue. About 10 hours of standby time. Even if I turn off all radios including the mobile network the phone is dead by the morning, every morning. This one is going back (I may try another, or just give up on the Flip)."]
