Ipod nano 6 does not recognise charger when connecting to ipod

When I try and connect charging lead to my IPod 6, (that was a replacement for Ipod 2) the screen alternates between Apple logo and icon screen, then it a message appears that the battery is low and to connect to a charger. I have tried Apple support sites on internet but nowhere does it address my problem. Can anybody please help?

I reset the ipod by holding down the power button and the menu button and the apple screen came up after a few moments - this seems to have done the trick!

  • Ipod Nano 7th Gen only charges when connected

    So my friend had her Ipod Nano 7th generation laying around. She bought it from someone else. They both could not figure out how to use it so they kept selling it off cheap. I ended up getting it for a good price only  to come home, plug it into my computer, and all it does is charge it. My computer doesn't even recognize a device is plugged into it. I've downloaded, reinstalled, and made sure Itunes was updated but that's not the problem. The computer alone doesn't even seem to know its there.
    The last time I had an ipod like this, I remember just having to right click on it in my devices and then go to Itunes and it was there. But with it being connected to my computer right now, full battery... It is like its invisible.
    What I have all tried is below
    Making sure Itunes is updated
    Restarted Computer
    Connected and reconnected Ipod Nano
    Held Center Button and Power button to reset it
    Did the same thing to try and put it into disk mode
    Reconnected the ipod to every possible USB port on my computer (3 different spots)
    I feel like there was something missing when she dropped this off. When she delivered it, it came with the sync/charge cable, the ipod, and the arm band. Please help.

    I believe you may have discovered why multiple people "kept selling it off cheap".
    Unfortunately, it seems like the "good price" you got it for was a bit too high... Drop it in the recycle bin at your local electronics store the next time you're there.

    If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem.  I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.

  • MY new Ipod Nano does not hold a charge.  I use it mostly as a watch, perhaps look at it 5 or 6 times in 8 hours, and leave it in sleep mode the rest of the time.  I drains to the red line in less than 2 days.  My husband's nano will last a week this way.

    You are still under warranty if your iPod is "new."  Take full advantage of it by either calling iPod tech support, Apple Care if you have it or take it in to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • Ipod nano 6th not recognised by win 8

    iPod nano 6th not recognises by PC running win 8?

    Found this in another thread and it worked for me...
    Try this:
    Windows 8.1, 64bit
    It appears that the 64bit install messed up the device drivers for the Apple mobilie devices connecting as USB.
    I tried many things, I may have missed a step below.  But the following is what I believe was the fix - since it worked on a 2nd PC.
    Make sure you are using an administrator account.  Any of them on your machine will do for the following
    a) Get Windows to restart the drivers:
        - disconnect your USB device and close ITunes
        - connect your USB device
        - if ITunes loads, close it.
    b) File explorer:
    Open File explorer and browse to
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
    In that folder there should be a set of files named "usbaapl64...."
    right click on the one ending in "INF"
    Select Install.  It's very quick.
    remove the USB device
    c) Restart the computer.
    When you login again, load ITunes before you attach your USB device.

  • My new iPod nano does not get the battery life that is advertised

    Help me my iPod nano does not get the battery life that is advertised

    Which battery life are you referring to? Apple's website states the iPod Nano 6th Gen will get "up to 24 hours of music playback when fully charged". There are going to be a lot of things that can change that. Are you using the stopwatch or the count down timer a lot? Are you using the FM radio a lot? Any accessories that you are using with the iPod? These will all have an effect on your battery life.

  • Ipod nano does not synch all contacts

    ipod nano does not synch all contacts.  When it synchs, it only transfers 7 of 2000+ contacts

    My point in the original posting that this is a bug seems to have been answered affirmatively by the notations of the quirkiness of the action. The argument that it must not be a bug because it would have been solved by now is totally disingenuous. Apparently Apple programmers (or their management) are not any superior to Microsoft programmers in that they focus on adding new bells and whistles while allowing longstanding problems in the core code to continue to fester.

  • My new ipod nano does not sync the ipod name cannot be synced the required disk cannot be found

    my new ipod nano does not sync the ipod name cannot be synced the required disk cannot be found

    Wow .... so you are syncing via WiFi when you sync .... would that be correct?
    I would still quit iTunes and then restart and see what happens. The iPad and iTunes must be playing some weird games.
    If you do sync via WiFi (I do), I think you are better off closing iTunes when you are done - unless of course you are using iTunes for Home Sharing or something like that. My experience is that if you leave iTunes running, the iPad and iTunes just start sending weird signals back and forth.
    Since I started Wifi syncing, I have seen messages in iTunes that made absolutely no sense at all. Anyway, that's my take on it. If you do not WiFi sync, then I have no clue why you are getting these messages.
