Ipod runs out of battery after its been connected to pc.

Hi my Ipod has ranout of battery after its been connected and charging through my pc. It was connected for a good few hours and when i disconnected and i went to play an album, i get the message - "please connect to power". I cant understand why it runs out when it says charging (the lightning bolt) and then battery fulll (the plug symbol). This has happened a couple of times now, i would be greatful for any help or insight into this. Thanks.

My computer doesnt go to sleep, the ipod still says connected, so still not sure whats happening. It doesnt happen all the time, so funk knows, cheers anyway. Maybe the new firmware will fix it. Any ideas to when its due out?

  • 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.

  • Ipod runs out of battery and doesn't work?

    Okay... so I'm leaving for a camp in 2 days for 3 weeks and my iTouch isn't working. It recently ran out of battery. So at a friends house, I charged it into a wall. It now only shows a USB cable/charger pointing at the iTunes label/logo. I am far away from my house (up north) so I obviously can't use my iTunes. What should I do? It's frozen and I can't get to my music, or anything. So I would be bumming if I was at camp for 3 weeks without any music.

    When you say, "Forced restart", do you mean holding the Home and Lock button together?  If not, try that.  If so, then sorry, I can't think of anything else.  You might need a trip to an Apple Store/Reseller, or call AppleCare (if you have it).

  • Okay so my ipod touch ran out of battery and its been stuck   What should i do?

    my ipod has been stuck on that swirly loading screen for hous. Ive tried to turn it off that didnt work. i charged it for like 3 hours that didnt work what should i do?

    - Try a reset.
    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.
    - Then connect to your computer and try to restore via iTunes.
    - Next see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - After that see if DFU mode will allow a restore.
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If the loading screen is still showing let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try the above again.

  • Why won't my 3g ipod touch update to ios5 after its been restored?

    I restored my 3g ipod and it still won't update to ios5. How can I solve this?

    Are you sure that it is a 3G iPod? To be sure, see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353   If it is a 2G iPod, it cannot go beyond 4.2.1

  • 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!!

    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    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.

  • My iphone runs out of battery really fast

  • HT201412 even after all night of charging my ipod touch is running out of battery whithin 5 minutes of it being on, why is this?

    even after all night of charging my ipod touch is running out of battery whithin 5 minutes of it being on, why is this?

    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.

    Water damage is totally unpredictable. If it was salt water the phone is definitely dead. If it was not you MAY be able to recover it by putting it in a sealed plastic bag full of uncooked plain rice (not quick cooking or "converted") for at least a week without attempting to turn it on. Better yet, if you can get silica gel easily that works better than rice. If you have tried to turn it on it may be too late for this.

  • Why does my MacBook Pro sometimes restores its RAM when I open it, even though it did not run out of battery?

    Sometimes when I open my MacBook Pro, it restores its RAM, as if it has run out of battery, even though it has not run out of battery and it has been charging. Why does this happen, and should it be happening?

    It's similar to hybernation mode in Windows.
    If you put your laptop to sleep, after X amount of hours it will move to the "deeper" sleep level (save memory to disk and shut down...), to save up battery.
    Otherwise if you left your laptop asleep in the evening, you could wake up to a dead battery. Not a great surprise when you in hurry to leave the house with your laptop...

  • Problem after running out of battery.

    My MACBOOK PRO running on OS X Lion shut down the other day after completelly running out of battery. Ever since, I have started having problems with my browsers. Certain pages such as facebook wont load aswell as videos. On top of that it keeps asking me to verify the certificates of any page I want to go to and  it keeps telling me that my date and time have been set to 1.1.2008 (although i changed it back the first time i saw it and since the date is still alright).
    What do I have to do?

    After charging at least overnight try the remaining items of:
    - 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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • Is there a way i can get all my pictures and information from my iPod after its been broken?

    Is it possible to get my information out of my iPod Touch after its been broken?

    Sure.
    If you restore the latest backup of your iPhone 5 (from iTunes or iCloud) to your new iPhone 5S, assuming you are using the same telephone number and same cellular carrier and same Apple ID, you will retrieve all the photos and videos that were in the iPhone 5's Camera Roll when it was last backed up.

  • Tracking ipod touch after its been lost?

    it doesnt look like it possible but can you track an ipod touch after its been lost with out have setting the find my ipod thing?

    If you didn't set up Find My iPhone/iPod, then no, sorry.
    I heard someone say that if you had the IMEI from the iPod, then the police could track it, but I don't know how easy that would be.

  • My iPod touch 5 has run out of battery and wont charge what do I do?

    My iPod touch has run out of battery and is failing to charge or turn on! What do i do?!

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
