Ipod 5th Generation charge icon not displaying when in hi-speed usb port

Interesting dilema. Charge icon displays when Ipod first connected, when updating, but as soon as it has finished does not show battery charge icon (lightning bolt)? Therefore I can only assume it is not. This is with battery showing 1/2 full. USB is hi-speed according to PC manufacturers info. Can anyone help?

I am having the same problem. I just purchased an 80GB ipod. I only get the lightening bolt when my ipod is syncing with iTunes. My battery indicator shows half full. How do You know if the battery is charging?

  • There is green mold/corrosion on my iPod 5th Generation charger.

    There is green mold/corrosion on my iPod 5th Generation charger, how can I remove this safely ?

    Hey Nikki, An iPod classic with iOS 8?!? OK, When you say "Charger" are you talking about the cable or the device that converts the 120 volt power from the wall to something that your iPod can handle? If you mean the cable, replace it, the green gunk is copper oxidation, corrosion. Moisture has gotten in the cable and is causing the cable to fail, replacement is the only thing that will work for certain. If within one year of purchase may be covered under warranty, you could get a free replacement from Apple. If it is just the tip of the cable wipe it off with a tissue and some alcohol. If your talking about the charging port on your iPod or the USB port on the other end, There are cleaning kits, you can purchase, which come with little brushes and pads and a cleaner solution to remove the corrosion. Just follow the instructions to the letter! Otherwise you can try this get bottle of isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) 91% and several cotton swabs. You may need to cut / trim the swabs to fit the port openings. Turn your iPod and/or the charging device off. Apply 1 maybe 2 drops of alcohol to the swab, you want it damp, NOT wet! If you get it too wet use a tissue to dry the excess alcohol off the swab. Then insert the swab in and out as if you were plugging it in and out, do not sweep side to side, you risk damaging the contact pins inside the port. Bend or break one and you'll have a real and expensive mess. after 4 or 5 in / out motions, varying the position of the swab from right to left, change swabs, dampen a fresh swab and continue until the swab come out clean. Or take it to Apple or an electronics service shop and let them clean it. When done allow the port to dry a few minutes before turning your iPod on. Good luck, Cheers.

  • My ipod 5th generation charges when connected to my PC but not recognised in itunes with windows 8.1

    Why is my ipod 5th generation not recognised in itunes in windows 8.1?Connection to my PC only charges the battery.

    Did this iPod previously work with this computer (running Windows 8.1), and does not now for some reason?  Or is this the first time (or the first time with Windows 8.1)?
    The fact that only the battery charging symbol appears on the iPod screen seems to indicate that the iPod does not recognize a data connection.  It's like you are connecting the iPod to USB (wall) power adapter.  It is likely that the Windows system also does not see the iPod as a connected device; you should confirm by looking at Device Manager.
    You should rule out a faulty USB docking cable.  The dock connector has separate connection points for power and data, so it is possible for it to connect to charge the battery but not connect for data.  So, if possible, try another docking cable, or try the cable you have with another Apple device.
    You should rule out a problem on the USB port.  If you connect something else to the same port, does it work properly?  Preferably, you should use something similar, like a USB flash drive or port-powered external drive, and try copying over some large files.
    If the USB port and docking cable are OK, the cause is more likely to be on the iPod (such as a dock connector that is worn out from use).

  • My iPod 5th generation charger doesn't work but it says it's charging. When I use another person'a charger, the iPod charges fine. Has anyone had this problem?

    My iPod 5th generation, The charger doesn't work but it says it's charging. When I use another person's charger, the iPod charges fine. Has anyone had this problem?

    Yes, the Lightning cables do fail sometimes. They are covered by the same one-year warranty as the iPod

  • My iPod 5th generation charges way too fast.

    I bought my iPod Touch 5th generation about a year ago. And I updated to iOS 7 when it came out.  I am currently on iOS 7.1.1. Earlier my iPod was at 4%. I plugged it in and checked ten minutes later. It was already at 100%. The iPod drains battery at a normal speed. I'm not complaining or anything. I just want to know why this is like this.

    Some other uesers have reported the same. iOS 7 does charge the battery faster.

  • 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

  • My iPod 5th Generation charger just stopped working??

    Both my mother and I have iPod 5's and we've only had them maybe 6 months. I've never had any problems with the charger I have which is the white regular one that came with the iPod when I bought it. Today, when I got home from school, I tried to charge my iPod, but it simply wouldn't charge with the wall adapter. I then tried to plug it in to the computer and it still wouldn't work. I then thought it was the charger, so I tried my spare charger, yet it refused to work as well. I also tried it on my mothers iPod and it would not work either. The cables are not broken, I have just used them today. Also we thought it could have been the wall adapter and we used the standard white one by Apple, yet when we plugged it into the wall it said it was not compatible. I don't understand why they would just stop working out of nowhere, when nothing has been done to render them from working.

    Not Charge

  • Alv Icon not displaying when download to local  directory

    Dear All,
    I have ALV report sent THROUGH email . When i had download the report to local directory  . I am unable to see the Icons like block  , in the report .
    Thanks,
    Sridhar

    Hi Sridhar,
    The icons are only displayed by the SAPGUI. In  the report data they are only something like @1F@... - which then is interpreted by the SAPGUI.
    When downloading the report the internal data is downloaded, but no SAPGUI will interpret them any longer (since you are not using SAPGUI to view the downloaded data).
    So in conclusion it is not possible to see those items. If you want to download the report you should avoid the usage of icons.
    Regards,

  • I dropped my iPod 5th generation and do not have insurance the screen is cracked, will Apple do a trade in or fix it?

    I dropped my iPod 5G while on a run and the screen cracked and camera is fuzzy but it still works. To my knowledge it does not have a warranty on it. Is there anything Apple will do with it such as trade ins or repairs? Thank you.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for a 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5Gs. They do not fix yours.

  • IPod 5th generation rear camera not responding

    If i click on the camera app and it's already switched to the rear camera, it shows a black screen. sometimes it even takes away the flash option. If I use the front facing camera, it lets me take pictures, but if I try switching to the rear camera, it sorta blurs the picture of the front camera and freezes. The microphone is working fine, because I've talked to Siri and used the microphone to type for me. I've only had this iPod since last Christmas. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
