Ipod battery charging problem not found in any posts

OK here's the problem
The battery meter on my 5g flashes that charging symbol, even when it's not plugged in the wall.
And sometimes when I use my friends griffin charger it charges and than stays on the charged symbol even after I unplug it.
Also my apple charger doesn't work at all (not just mine, I borrowed my friends and it doesnt either work).
Also when I plug into the computer it mounts but doesn't charge.
OK I'll tell you what I did so far: I read ALL of apples related battery documents. I restored. I depleted the battery and recharged it. I bought a new cable.
I used my friends computer. I used the back USB port. Nothing is helping the ipod.
By the way I know for a fact that this all started when one time i did actually use the front usb port. It sort of jinxed the whole battery meter into it's current state. Any one with this problem? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

  • 2nd dead iPod Touch 4G in 2 months?  Battery/charging problems!

    Hi everyone,
    It seems as of tonight that I will have to return my second iPod Touch 4G in the last two months. In both cases, it was an issue where the device would no longer charge, and became very hot on the top of the back panel when the device was turned on even for a few seconds (while not being plugged in). In the first case, the device seemed to be defective from the time I opened the box, which was confirmed at an Apple Store, but they asked me to ship it to Apple Repair to be checked out. Apple took a very long time to get a replacement to me, but was good about that problem, and I was happy with the replacement for the past month when all of a sudden tonight the new one would not change and became very hot.
    Is this an issue that anyone else has seen? I essentially only charged it off of my laptop or a wall charger unit, but it seems like the battery essentially is shorting out. I love this device, but actually need to use a PDA-type device enough that I am questioning whether I should get a replacement or go back to my old Palm TX.
    Thanks for any thoughts/feedback on my iPod Touch 4G battery/charging problems.

    Most battery complaints complain about loss of charge. The iPod is designed to lose heat through the back as the battery discharges. This is most common when using the device a lot - like playing games. If yours will no loner charge, by all means return it to Apple.
    As far as being a PDA goes, it is as good as any smart phone out there. The PDA, as you once knew it, is dead and has been for 5+ years. Take your iPod to an Apple store and insist on a replacement.

  • My mini ipod appears off and not respond to any commands when pressed the buttons to reset, apple logo appeared and then the apple support site and it shuts down. already tried all the steps, but none worked, and when I plug it into my computer it does no

    My mini ipod appears off and not respond to any commands when pressed the buttons to reset, apple logo appeared and then the apple support site and it shuts down. already tried all the steps, but none worked, and when I plug it into my computer it does not appear in the iTunes bar. what do I do?

    If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
    Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
    An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
    At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
    Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk.

  • Unable to update or restore Ipod due to firmware not found?

    Can anyone help me? I've had my Video Ipod for about a year and a half and have never had trouble with it until now. I can't update it to the lastest software as a message comes up Unable to update software due to firmware not being found. I tried to resort to restoring it to the original factory settings but I ran into a message that said Unable to restore ipod due to firmware not found. Has anyone else had this problem? Help!!!

  • UI error "The requested lookup key was not found in any active" workaround

    Hi All.
    Some of you might have this problem when making a UI-Connection "The requested lookup key was not found in any active activation context"
    Talking to SAP Support and Gianluigi Bagnoli about the problem here is a sum of the problem and the workaround to prevent it (at least untill SAP development fix the problem)
    Some facts:
    - The error is present in SBO2005A SP01 and SBO2005B SP00, SBO2007A should not be affected
    - The error occur because the SAP client fail to provide the correct/entire connection-string
    - The problem is actually an underlying problem from Microsoft (try searching google with the error message)
    - Normally after the error occur, you can go to Administration > Add-ons and start the add-on manually without problems
    Some additional observations
    - The error mostly happen just after startup of a windows machine
    - We have had a couple of customers that have had the problem, then upgraded the SAP client to a new patchlevel and got rid of the problem (but we have also had customers where this did not help)
    - Seem to be happening more often of slower machines
    Workaround
    Knowing that this problem is tied to and incorrect connection string is also the "workaround"... What you could do is to create exception handling around the UI connection, and if it fails connection using the development connection string (like you do during development) The connection string is: 0030002C0030002C00530041005000420044005F00440061007400650076002C0050004
    Using this method, you will be able to establish a connection even if the client is unable to provide you a correct connectionstring, but the draw-back of this workaround is that the add-on will be indicated as failed in the Add-on Manager and the user is not able to stop the add-on in any way other than disconnection from the company.

    Hi,
    I am looking for a solution to the error "The requested lookup key was not found in any active activation context" too.
    In our add-on we do two SboGuiApi.Connect(sConnectionString), one from MyAddon.exe and the other one from MyAddon.dll. The .exe catches messages and .dll interacts with UI to paint forms etc. It is since the .exe and .dll are not in the same thread. The first connection works fine in the .exe, then that connection string is passed to the dll and the error is raised. The rare thing is why it works fine from the development enviroment, but doesn't work when SAP is starting the Addon?
    Is it possible connect twice?
    Can we connect in the .exe using the connection string received from SAP and in the .dll using the development connection string?
    It is over

  • New battery charge us not increasing. Stuck at16%

    I Had a new battery installed in my iPhone 5 today and the battery charge has not increased at all. Still at 16% the same as it was when I got it back 3 hours ago. Is it's to be expected or do I need to return to the Apple store?

    Thank you.  I went to the apple store and they said the phone needs to be replaced and they don't have a 5 and it has to be exact goods for goods so they will get one tomorrow.  The crashing is a hardware problem and they cannot fix it.  I do appreciate your guidance.

    That DLL is part of your printer driver; reinstall or update the device driver for your printer, and the message should go away.

  • HT5467 My location services in iPod Touch 5 is not working. Any help?? I really want to fix this issue.

    My location services in iPod Touch 5 is not working. Any help?? I really want to fix this issue.

    You do have it turned on ins settings>Privacy, right?
    For location the iPod uses the location of nearby wifi routers that are in Apple's database. You do not have to be connected to the network/router to use that router's location. Thus, it appears that the iPod can't see a nearby router that is in Apple's database. Apple continuously updated their database based on info they obtain from iPhones. No one has been able to find a way to inform Apple of a router or correct is location.
    You can confirm that by going to place with a know located router like Starbucks or McDonalds

  • My info for battery charging says "Not Charging" when it is charging as per dashboard widget.

    My info for battery charging says "Not Charging" when it is charging as per dashboard widget. Since change to lion all slowed down do I need more ram ( have 2 gig). Lost  some icons in web site icons and other random icons. So far SL better.

    Yeah, it was purchased in August 2008. I'm not really sure what a charge cycle is, but I do plug it in and unplug it a lot to a power source. Mainly because I keep my computer on most of the time (either on or on sleep). So between taking it to classes and stuff, I'll recharge in between and when it's really low, otherwise I run it off the battery most of the time.
    On a sidenote, I have went to that information thing about about the battery after letting it sit plug in for a few hours, and now it has this information:

    You will need to restore your phone as a new one using the itunes on your computer.  This WILL erase everything on the phone but it will let you change the name of the phone and then you can add content to it.

    Media is not burned to iDevices.  Burning an iDevice would destroy it. 
    Why will iTunes not allow you to sync media to the iDevice?  What happens when trying to sync media to an iDevice?

    Pull up what account?
    What does this have to do with iTunes?
    One does not pull up an account to access their media, they simply launch iTunes.
    Changing a password has nothing to do with accessing the media on the computer when one launches iTunes.
    What is the actual issue that is occurring?

  • Satellite A60: battery charging problem

    Hey,
    I have a toshiba satellite A60 notebook. My notebook is 2 years old. After I used my laptop in battery mode, it fell out because the battery was empty. When I plugged it in on the net, the battery led flashed amber for less than a second and went out again. The battery won't charge anymore and the batteryled is out.
    Windows detects the battery though. The laptop still keeps running on the battery for some minutes. I already had this problem a year ago and after a few months the battery started charging again.
    Does anyone have a simular problem and how do you solve it?
    Thanks (sorry for the bad english)

    Hi
    Possibly the battery cannot charge properly because it has a malfunction.
    Generally the battery performance decreases in process of time.
    I read that you can charge and discharge the battery about 500 times and then the performance goes down.
    You can try to remove the battery for a several time. After this time try to charge it.
    I would also recommend checking if this issue happens also with a new battery.
    But its also possible that there is something wrong with the power supply electronic.
    This could have a bad influence on the charging procedure.
    I have also read that the BIOS update have solved some battery charging problems.
    But if the battery charging has worked since 2 years so I assume the BIOS is ok.
    However, check it with a new battery.
