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).

Run out of battery and lose your work!

Jesus christ, i'm fed up with apple!
I was working on my ******* term paper, and i ran out of battery, my computer then won't start - as usual, when I plugged in the adapter.
Seriously, come on!
That's one of the reasons why I bought it, you never loose your work, bla. bla. bla. Suit up, Apple!
Well since this is a discussion, I might as well ask if anyone has a fix or might have the same problem?

Well, yeah, that's a pretty easy way to look at it!
But my mac used to start up at where I left off, even if it ran out completely. U don't always have an adapter in your pocket! U see?
For sure, but there is a *_command + S_* shortcut to save your work from time to time !

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

- 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.

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.

My I phone 4 ran out of battery and doesn't turn on.

My I phone 4 ran out of battery and doesn't turn on. I did bring it to a repair shop and even after changing the tip and the battery it still doesn't work. Any help would be loved because I have 3 years of data in it. cheers

Plug your iPhone into a wall charger. Usually letting it charge for 15-30 minutes is enough for the screen to turn on.
However, if the battery has been drained for a long time, you may want to wait a few hours to let the battery charge.

MBP Does not sleep it just runs out of battery and dies

I did a fresh install of Leopard yesterday and I have a BRAND NEW MBP Battery, I fully charged it and let it drain down, instead of the computer going to sleep, it just ran out of battery and died.
Is anybody else having this problem and if so, do you have a fix?
Thanks

Hi Again Daniel
Again, please excuse a suggestion that may come across as insulting, but I generally work on the premise that to assume is inviting problems... So...
In the sleep preferences system preferences pane, you have two sleep options (for a laptop anyway). One for battery and one for mains power. I suppose you have checked the setting in both areas...
I should also apologise for not suggesting that a PMU (or System Management Controller) reset is the most likely cure for your battery issues... It was rather late when I offered my previous suggestions.
Here's the link to the Apple page which describes the procedure:

I hope this does the trick.

My iPod 5th gen touch won't turn on after running out of battery and then being charged for several hours

I was using my ipod touch 5th gen, when it ran out of battery. I wasn't able to charge it all night because the lighting adapter plug broke, and so this battery sign and the lighting charger sign kept popping up telling me to charge it. It ran like that all night and when I woke up it wouldn't turn on at all. I tried plugging it into a few different computers to charge it, and after several hours it still won't turn on. I tried plugging it into my computer with iTunes up, but it still would not charge and my computer would not recognize that it was there. Anyone want to give me some tips?
Thanks

Not Charge

- Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.

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?

IPhone 4 Ran Out of Battery and Doesn't want to charge

So basically, today i looked up at my iPhone 4 and noticed it was at 6% battery or something like that. I left it and looked at it again after an hour or so and it was off. I thought that it ran out of battery so it was okay.
I came back home, got the charger and plugged in. The iPhone did not show any charging sign (you know, the red icon that shows that the battery is empty, nor the red sign that shows that the iPhone is charging but not yet "up").
There is nothing on the screen. I tried a forced restart and similar but it doesn't show anything.
I have no idea what i can do about it, so let me know if you have any?
Thanks.

I left the battery of my iphone 4 run out of battery and know it does not recharge

yesterday i forgot to recharge my iphone4 when it was nearly out of battery so when i wanted to use it today it was already dead
so i put the phone on recharge but it looks like it does not recharge and i cannot even turn it on.
can anyone please inform me of what the problem is and what should i do.

It takes up to 15-20 minutes of recharging after auto-shutoff for the phone to restart.
1. Charge with AC adaptor for 1 hour.
2. If phone has not restarted, reset iPhone (no data loss): Press both home and power buttons for up to 30 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears
If no signs of life after a reset, there is a hardware failure that needs evaluation by Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your country.

"iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode" restore and doesn't work

I'm trying to put my music on my new iPod and keep getting this error message "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore the iPod before it canb work with iTunes". I click "restor to factory settings" and then the same error message comes up when it's complete. iTunes does recognize my iPod, it just doesn't seem to realize that I've already done what it's telling me to do. Going around and circles and can't get my music on...:( Help, please?
Thanks!
Beth

Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? Have a look at the bottom section that covers what to try if restoring doesn't work, it may be of some help: iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore

Ipod nano displays apple icon and doesn't work

I bought this nano as a gift (I already have an identical one). There were no problems syncing the content and registering the device, but once it is disconnected from the system, if you navigate to a song on the device and hit "[play", the screen goes black and will only display an apple icon.
I returned the first one thinking it's a hardware issue, but the replacement is doing the exact same thing, leading me to believ it is a setting or software issue. I got the replacement in a completely different Best Buy too, just to try and get one from a different batch. Any ideas what's going on?

Make sure you are using the latest version of iTunes and the Ipod's firmware is up to date.
Make sure the "screen lock" is not set to on. Make sure the hold button at the top of iPod Nano is in the "off" position.

If the Home button is broken, best thing to do is take it in for repair, or get an estimate. Make a Genius appointment.
