Ipod touch 2G wont work with wall charger

my ipod touch will charge fine when plugged into my computer, but when plugged into a 2005 USB wall charger that i just bought unopened, the little battery icon in the top right flicks from charging to fully charged and back and forth when i know it is nowhere near fully charged.
I am also using an old usb cable that came with my ipod video 5G, but the touch works fine with that cable in the computer.
How do i fix this?

With the release of the 2nd Gen iPod Touch, Apple changed their charging system within the iPod and iPhone lines, rendering older chargers useless for the new devices. That it even claims to charge in any fashion is strange. It is possible the charger is simply defective or unable to provide the necessary power for the iPod Touch.
Technical side: If your charger is using the Firewire charging pins, it will no longer work on the newer devices. Look for 5v at 1 amp output.

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
You can get 10.6.8 here:

Will ipod touch 4 gen work with windows vista service pack 1?

Will ipod touch 4 gen work with vista service pack 1?

All Apple says is:
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
Does it work/sync with SP1?
Why not update to latest Vista?

Does ipod touch 4th generation work with Altec Lansing Octiv Mini Executive Edition?

i want to buy a speaker and i wonder if my ipod touch 4th generation work with Altec Lansing Octiv Mini Executive Edition
plz answer

If anyone is interested I managed to solve this problem by reformatting the ipod as a mac ipod, with the help of friends system. This does get rid of the music but as I had it backed up wasn't a problem. I then plugged the mac Ipod back into a windows pc and reformatted it as a windows ipod which updated the firmware correctly and have'nt had a problem since.

Ipod touch no longer working with isimple device?

I have a 4th gen Ipod touch that was working just fine with my isimple device in my vehicle until I believe I updated the ipod to the latest firmware. I now recieve a message saying device is not compatible with Ipod, Is there anyway I can rollback to the previous version which I believe was 6.1.2? Thanks!!

Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.
Sometimes this works:
- 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.
Go to the devices support site and see if they have anything. Maybe a firmware update is available. Otherwise you will have to wait for a firmware or iOS update.

Why is my ipod touch 5 not working with itunes? It says it needs to update to itunes 10.7 or later.

My new ipod touch 5 is working perfectly, almost. When I plugged it in to my laptop for Itunes, the laptop said the ipod needs to update to itunes 10.7 or later. The problem is it won't let me update it. Can somebody help me?

You need to be running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer to sync it. If you're using Mac OS X 10.6 through 10.6.7, run Software Update twice. If you're running Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier and have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.
If you're using Windows, what happens when you try to update it?

Okay i havent charged my Itouch in about two days. I tried to charge it today and it wont turn on. I even tried too push the home button and the sleep button together for a minute and it still wont turn on HELP ME!!!

Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

No longer works with wall charger

I have a Logic3 wall charger and it used to work fine with my 3rd gen iPod nano. However, right after installing an update around Oct/Sep I believe, it stopped working. Everytime I plug it in, the screen freezes and it doesn't charge; I know because I assumed it was charging and it had no more battery.
It isn't the charger because it works fine with friend's iPod (though they bought theirs just recently). I'm not sure if the update caused this, but I'm not sure. Please help if you have any info. Thank you.

Sorry- I would have replied sooner but for some reason it wouldn't let me log in.
I realize that my warranty wouldn't have covered it, just sometimes I wonder if it's really a coincidence that everything I own spontaneously combusts days after the warranty runs out.
But thanks for your response. At first I left it for a couple of hours, and then tried another four days. It was okay for about two days, but came back.
Then it went away by itself again for a while, but now it's back and worse than ever. A lot of times I can't even get the error off the screen. And if I try to play any songs, the song starts skipping.
There isn't anything else I can try, is there?
At this point I'm starting to think I'd be better off with a new one. In my experience, sending things in only ends up costing more than the thing itself and half the time it returns still broken.
It's too bad, I much prefer the lst generation Nanos to the 2nd.

Ipod touch 4gen wont work

so i plugged my ipod in to thw wall and i heard this pop noise and then it smelt like something was burning so i unplugged everything and then my ipod touch 4gen started to get really hot so i just let it sit then well then it cooled down and i tried to turn it on but it wont turn in i have also tried to reset it but that dident work either and it wont show up on itunes either. if somebody could please help me that would be nice.

At this point I'd suggest that you don't try anything other than taking in it for diagnostics and service. Make a reservation at the nearest Apple Store Genius Bar and let them tell you whether the iPod can be salvaged or if it needs replacement.

Ipod Touch won't work with Xbox 360

Recently I was at my cousins house hanging out and we decided to plug in my iTouch to listen to music, but when we did this it started charging but wouldn't show up in the devices section so we couldn't use it. When we tried it with his 80Gb Classic it worked. It's not his 360 I tried it with my 360 and my brothers 360 and it didn't work with either of them.
If anyone else has had this problem and knows how to fix it please help me, or if you just know how to fix it.
Thanks

I have had the same problem, but have not worried about it. The iPod touch is the only iPod I have noticed that does not work with the Xbox360 and it may never.

IPod Touch no longer working with car Head Unit since update

Hi there, I have a problem with using my iPod Touch with my car's head unit.
I've been using my iPod Touch with the Alpine IDA X001 Head unit fitted in my car for the last 3 months without any problems, however I installed the latest software update for the Touch (v4.0) and now the head unit connects and then says no USB device. At first I thought it was the cable as the cable supplied with the head unit is pretty fragile, so I've replaced it with a new one but it still doesn't work.
I've tested with my iPod Nano and it works perfectly so its not a problem with the head unit or lead (I plugged the Touch in and it didn't work, plugged the Nano in and worked perfectly and then plugged the Touch in and didn't work).
Can anyone help or is it gonna be a case of Restoring the iPod Touch back to factory settings ????

I was also having this problem with my Kenwood car stereo. I went into the store and they did a complete restore. I didn't think it worked but the next time I plugged it into my usb to connect with my car stereo it worked. So you might try doing a restore.
