IPOD video 30 gig will not charge

The big battery icon shows on the screen but the progress bar does not move. I have let it sit and sit and still no charge. Has anyone had this happen? It will turn on but then shuts off and says the battery is low.

Ipod Video (30 gig) will not shut off

Hello,
I have a problem turning off the Ipod. I press and hold the play/pause button. sometimes for 30 sec and nothing happens. I have done the five steps listed on the help page twice (reset etc...). Has anyone had this happen? How to fix?

I had this happen with mine. It won't shut off when the hard drive is going, and occasionally (for whatever reason) it takes a while before the drive stops. You might want to select a smaller song or something, or try pausing it. Honestly, I didn't find much of a solution other than waiting for the drive to stop.

My ipod nano (5 generation) will not charge.

My ipod nano (5 generation) will not charge. Sometimes, if I connect it to the computer, turns on and appears on the screen a battery. Other times I connect it, and will not turn on anything. If you load it, I can use it, but if I turn off the ipod, after does not turn on. I tried to reload it with an outlet to the current, but does not turn on. Can I fix it? How much does it cost?

You need a new battery.

Ipod, nano 4th generation, will not charge using my PC or my dock. It's 5 years old and has charged using both methods since I got it.

My ipod will not charge when connected to my dock or my computer. I will play when connected to both. I have tried both USB ports, checked the connections on my dock (power light is on) and it will just not charge.

Howdy Crickety22,
Using the USB cord in different locations is a great way to help isolate this kind of issue. Since you have done that, the next step I would recommend is testing a different USB cable with the device.
Check out this info from the article named Archived - iPod's battery doesn't charge found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ta44551
Faulty cable
If something is wrong with the FireWire or USB cable that came with iPod, it may not supply any power to charge the battery. Note: Only iPod models with a Click Wheel can get power from a high-powered USB port using the supplied cable (includes iPod mini, iPod (Click Wheel), iPod photo, iPod with color display, iPod nano, and Fifth Generation iPod).
Make sure you are using the cable that came with iPod. Some third-party cables may not work properly with iPod.
Make sure nothing is in or blocking your computer's FireWire or USB ports.
Check the connections to make sure the cable is completely plugged in.
Try another known-good FireWire or USB cable if available.
If this resolves the issue your FireWire or USB cable needs to be replaced. You can arrange for replacement at theiPod Service Website.
And this part as well:
Faulty dock connector or FireWire port on iPod
If something is wrong with iPod's FireWire or Dock Connector port, it may not supply power to iPod.
Make sure nothing is in or blocking iPod's FireWire or Dock Connector port.
Check the connection to make sure the FireWire or Dock Connector cable is completely plugged in.
If this did not resolve the issue iPod needs to be repaired. You can arrange for repair at the iPod Service Website.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT1719 my ipod shuffle 4th generation will not charge or connect to the computer, I updated iTunes and I got a new charger.

My iPod Shuffle will not charge or connect to the computer. I updated iTunes and bought a new charger. Any ideas? Thanks

My question was, when you connect the shuffle to USB, does the light come ON? From the way you answered, I'm not sure if you are answering that question, or saying that the light does not come ON when you move the power switch on the shuffle to the ON position.
Also, what happens when you connect the shuffle to your computer by itself, with nothing else connected to USB?
If you get no response (no light) from the shuffle when you connect it to USB by itself, trying both the original USB cable and a new one that is compatible with the 4th gen shuffle, try connecting something else to the USB port to confirm it is working properly. It would be best to test the USB port with something similar, such as a USB flash drive or external drive. If you can confirm the USB port works properly, it is likely that the cause for this problem is on the shuffle, such as a faulty headphones jack or bad logic board.
If the shuffle is less than one year from purchase date, it is under warranty.

My ipod touch 5th gen will not charge

My ipod 5th generation will not charge, I have 4 different chargers that I have tried 2 of which have adapters on them hanging them from 4th gen ipod chargers to 5th. I now know that it is a problem with my ipod. Has anyone experienced the same problem? And is it fixable?

IPod Touch 5th Gen will not Charge or Power On.

I got my iPod at Christmas and it's worked fine ever since. I don't much use it, but recently I let the battery die. When I go to charge my iPod, the Low Battery Symbol will show up, then vanish. If I hit the "Sleep" button, it will pop up again. My ipod does not indicate that it's charging, nor does my computer recognize the device. I assumed it was just a bad cable, but since then I've tried 2 other lightning Cables and neither has worked.
I use my iPod mostly to capture video, and I would like to keep my videos, but without a charge, I can't even transfer my files to my computer.

My iPod 4G 36 gigs is not charging

My iPod 4G 36 gigs died completely last night, and it's been on my iHome since 10:00pm. It is now 4:04pm and when I click the lock button it shows a battery that has a little bit of red at the left end along with the lightning bolt charging symbol beneath it. I haven't taken the iPod off the charger, the iPod is positioned on the iHome correctly, and the iHome is plugged in properly. What do I do?

Try directly connecting the iPod to your computer or wall charger. Also see the not-charging topic of:

My ipod touch 5th gen will not charge when connected to pc. works when plugged into wall

I just got my 5th gen ipod today, and when i plug it into my pc (and my roommate's) they make the sound as if something is connected, but my ipod does not charge. When I plug it into my wall charger, it works fine. I've tried multiple cables, and multiple PCs, but it makes no difference. The weirdest thing though, is when I restart my computer, when it is about to close windows, it starts charging for a few seconds, then turns back off. This is so confusing. Any ideas?

Sounds like the computer's USB ports do not provide enough current to charge the iPod when the screen is on. I would connect a partially discharged iPod to the computer for a couple of hours and see it it is charged.
