Ipod 60 Photo runs out of battery before full update done

I have about 18GB of tunes/podcasts in ITunes (no photos). While ITunes shows that the Ipod is connected OK, it takes about 1 to 1.5 hours for a message to come up saying something like 'not all the tunes can be found' and then only 5-12GB gets downloaded before the battery on the Ipod runs out.
I have installed the latest Ipod software, and have installed the next but latest Itunes Software (6.01?). I have gone through all the songs and sorted out all the disconnected links to ITunes Library on my computor, so the error message seems to be incorrect. I have just bought a Universal Dock hoping I could keep the Ipod on charge at the same time as download but there's only one connector port on it so it looks like this is not the solution.
Suggestions would be welcome. I'm missing my music fix!

Hi Tom,
I'll have to try your suggestions a bit later. Got a crisis. All the tunes and podcasts have disaapeared from my iTune Library. I've had this happen before, but last time my iPod had the full library on it so I was able to upload into iTunes. This time, the iPod lbrary is very incomplete so I think I'm starting from scratch.
I suspect I may have a software conflict issue anyway. iTunes frequently crashes my whole computor. I have no idea what to do about this. The company who maintains my software don't know what to do either.
I love my iPod. Its opened the world of music to me. Its so sad that its hard to keep to keep my iPod & iTunes up and running OK.

When I charge my Ipod it runs out of battery in 40 minutes. I charged overnight and lasted a little over an hour. How can I solve this problem. My Ipod is still under warranty.

If still problem then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If defective, yoand not abouses, you hould walk out with a replacement.

I let my ipod touch run out of battery, i plugged it in, and i won't recognize my password. Help!

OK-
I'm 13 years old and got an ipod touch for my last birthday.
And once in a while i get the Touch taken away.
This time, it got taken away for 3 days, it was out of battery,
so i plugged it in.
When it finally came to, i typed in my password 'rise'
AND IT SAID IT WAS WRONG!!!!!
Please help me...

You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it. If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

HT4060 What's best for maximizing the life span of the battery, to run out the battery before charging it again or to charge it before it drains out completely?

I usually charge my iPad after all the battery drains out but someone told me it damage the software so I wanna know if draining out the full battery is good or not. Thank you.

Lithium based batteries as in the iPad do not respond well to repeated draining.

My ipod keeps running out of battery

i fully charge my battery but in about one hour it says its at 10% is there something wrong with the charger or my ipod?

depending where you bought your ipod, you man want to take it to the apple store and get a new battery replacement for it, or if its an old one, you man just want to buy a new one

My ipod keeps running out of battery even though i fully charged it

I fully charge my battrey and then it lasts for a few mins and then it says i need to charge it again. is there anything i can do or do i need a new ipod?

Hopefully just a new battery.

MBP running out of battery power before sleeping - Help!

Hi
My MacBook Pro has been running out of battery power before the memory-saving sleep mode kicks in, so it dies with a little click of the HD. It's not a hibernation state as when I reattach the power supply it boots up a new session.
I've noticed this since upgrading to Snow Leopard last year, but put it down to an old battery that had 45% charge and wasn't powering the MBP properly. I now have a replacement A1175 5600mAh battery which is giving me 2-3hrs usage (which I'm pleased at), but now it still dies before sleeping!
I have tried to cycle the new battery, but can't. I have reset the SMC several times, with no effect.
I used to cycle the battery every week or two, running it down until it would no longer wake from sleep, recharge overnight etc, but now I can't do this because it will die before sleeping!
I've read quite a few articles over the net about this issue, but there seems like no cure. It's really annoying me now as I frequently work on the move and a dying MBP could potentially be disastrous.
Can anyone shed some light on this issue? Is there something I haven't tried yet? I think it's a late '06 MBP.

If you are not getting a warning, then there is something amiss with your battery. If a SMC reset and calibration does not fix the problem, then you may need to make an appointment at the genius bar and arrange to have your battery tested.
My old battery started doing the same thing--shutting down without warning. I replaced it, and the replacement battery started doing the exact same thing. I then returned the replacement, and the next replacement battery behaves in a normal fashion.
My first battery was worn out. My second battery was defective. My third battery is good.
Your battery should still be under warranty. Go back to where you got it and show them what it is doing and see if you can get a replacement.
Good luck!

Hello douraid,
Start with the article below to get your iPhone to take a charge. Once you get it powered back on, you will want to sync again to make sure nothing was lost during the attempted sync.

Try the following to rule out a software problem.:
- 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:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still that short of life ake an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

How do you fix lines that come up on an iPod Touch (5th Gen) once it turns on after running out of battery?

This has happened to me about 4 times now. I just got a brand new iPod touch (5th Gen) after replaceing my 4th gen iPod. I havent had it for a month, so its still brand new. The only thing is that when the iPod runs out of battery it turns off (duh) but it doesnt turn back on when you plug it in to charge. When I noticed that the iPod doesnt turn on, and I hit the power button, lines appear on my screen. They are lines that run up and down the screen from left to right. I try factory resets, setting resets, restoring my iPod. But this issue keeps coming up. I honestly dont know what to do. This thing is brand new and its acting up on me. Should I take it to my apple store? Should I just put up with it. I have tried everything and at this point I dont know what to do anymore. Please help!!

Since you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem
If the iPod is defective within warranty (you indicate it is) and not abused Apple will exchange it on the spot.

Hey my iPod is not showing up on iTunes and my computer doesn't recognize it. It runs out of battery very fast and only shows the 'Connect to iTunes" screen. What do I do?

Does my music get lost if my iPod runs out of battery?

I've never got my iPod running out of battery, so I'm wondering if my music could get lost when the iPod runs out of battery?

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
No, the iPod will keep the songs even if it runs out of battery power. Just charge it up again and you can play its songs.
