Ipod battery wont charge

I have a 60 GB ipod 5th gen and. I have tried charging overnight with both an AC wall adapter and the computer via USB and they both say the ipod is charging but when i take it off charge after well over 12 hours it only plays one song and the battery goes dead. Why won’t my ipod charge?
Thanks

Have a look at this Knowledge Base article but if the problem persists I would suggest you contact Apple or your retailer as the battery itself may be faulty: iPod's battery doesn't charge

  • New ipod, battery wont charge - any suggestions?

    I have had my ipod for less than 6 months and the battery charged without issue using any sort of charging station but it stopped charging a few days ago. Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions?

    Try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

    Pls help me my ipod nano wont charge even if i use other laptop or pc . The battery notification tells its full charge but when i remove my ipod its still not charged

    Is it not charging at all? Did you try to reset? If YES to both, request for a replacement of the ipod. Battery or the unit itself is defective. Cheers!

    My ipod touch 2g 8gb has no battery, wont charge on my pc (Hp Pavilion g6 intel Pentium 2.2Ghz, 2 gb) or on my outlet 220W, and it wont turn on. What should I do?

    Hi there fCdawg123!
    I have an article here that can address this issue for you and give you some further troubleshooting steps:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    As you may note, this article was written for the iPhone, but the steps for troubleshooting will be the same for your iPod touch. This is the section that I believe will help you the most with this issue:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • My ipod touch wont charge nor will the computer recognize it as an ipod

    my iPod touch wont charge when connected to my lab top but it isnt the usb cord or port because it works for a different iPod and my computer wont recognize my ipod.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    my ipod shuffle wont charge the orange light just
    blinked (front light)
    when plugged in, for hours
    While the orange light blinks it'll NEVER turn
    green UNLESS whatever is causing the light to blink
    (access by iTunes, used as data storage drive, ...)
    stops. IF you EJECT or UNmount or "safely remove
    hardware", it might display a solid orange...
    i upgraded the software and reset the ipod
    now when plugged in no light ??
    NO light? That means it's not receiving power from
    the USB port.
    it is 2 years old, is the shuffle battery dead ?
    It may very be. What happens when you press the
    battery status button on the back? Does the LED show
    anything?
    it still shows up in itunes and transfers music
    etc.
    Yeah, but what good is it if it won't play when
    disconnected?
    first thing this morning (after a overnight rest)
    i got a red light
    when i press the back light now
    i get nothing,

  • HT1476 My battery wont charge instead the battery gets drained

    I recently bought the iphone 5 in November and ever since it has had problems with the battery, As most people have. Recently my battery has gone down quicker and quicker. Now for some reason my battery wont charge at all. when connecting to the charger the phone delays in recognising it and when it is removed it still says its charging. Now when it is charging it does not charge but drain the battery faster. I have tried buying a new charger, using older charges. I have updated the phone and nothing. I dont know what to do.

    Make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store.

  • Battery wont charge at high loads all of a sudden?!

    ANy help here would be appriciates, asap! thanks:P
    All of a sudden, as of today, my battery wont charge when the mbp is under a high load. I thought it was just not charging (was not charging in wow) and then realised as soon as i quit, it started to charge again. SO i ran 2 yes > /dev/null to test, and all of a sudden it stopped charging and the magsafe light went to green... (at 25%) as soon as i stopped one of hte processes, abck to orange, charging... started a 2nd up, stopped charging and started to use the battery again.
    Does ANYONE have any idea what is going on? i know macbooks can't cahrge under high loads, however, im on a MBP and it has never happened until this evening. Any ideas guys? could it be the bettery somehow, actual computer short not letting it get enough power.... anything? 3 month old mbp (3rd one, first two never had a problem, nor this until tonight)
    callign apple in morning, but hoping to resolve before since the closest store is hrs away.. thanks!
    james

    Hey,
    I've actually used yes to test it ( yes > /dev/null) in console to mac the cores, its standard on all systems. They've sent em a new power supply saying it sounds like 'it isnt getting all the current' basically, which, seems rather odd. it ONLY started after the keyboard update, as if the new firmware ***** more power ot eh usb hub and it just pushed it over.. maybe my magsafe was always busted nto working properly, but it's always worked for me.. I have a feeling i'm gonna be going into the store an hr away this weekend :/
    Had a friend who has NOT ran the update try, and at full loads he still charge fine, unplugged with it running to drain battery a bit, plugged in and it went ot charge, i tried again and it goes green and wont charge at a heavy load Oh, yea, and my laptop wont go on w/o battery and plugged in.. like it's not getting the full 85w, or.. somethign is toasted on my actual laptop. CCC here i come for a drive clone tonight! heh

  • My ipod wont charge and i already reseted my ipod and computer and i reinstalled itunes so what should ido cuz my ipod still wont charge

    my ipod wont charge so i resested my ipod and computer and i reinstalled itunes and my ipod till wont charge what should i do?

    You can does that plug your iPod somewhere else like the sockets on walls because sometimes the mac is getting less power so it cant give a bit of power to your iPod if it gives the mac will shut down
    If in the socket it doesn't charge get New power adapted if it still doesn't charge get a new USB cable if it still doesn't charge take it to apple :)

    Thanks for help

    Hi
    I think the new battery should be tested but before doing this be sure that you use the latest BIOS
    I means either its battery issue or notebooks power supply electronic issue and before the notebooks hardware would be checked, the notebook should be tested using new good working battery.
