IPOD Video 30GB does not fully charge

My 5th Generation Video Ipod is 3 years old.
A few months ago it stopped fully charging. The unit would say it was charging whether plugged into a computer USB or docked on an IHome. However, when the unit was removed the battery would be 1/4 to 1/2 charged and immediately drop into the red zone.
I bought a new battery and replaced the old with a new thinking it was a battery problem. The problem still exists.
I went into diagnostics mode today and everything passes, except my Full SDRam test fails.
Run: BL On
PASS: BL Blink
Fail: BL Off.
This unit will sync with any pc, play on the Ihome, play on the accessory device for the auto. The only thing it will not do is fully charge the battery.
Can the SDRam really be bad? If so, can the SDRam only affect the battery charging?

Yes it is.
Before taking out the battery, do NOT turn off the device.
Try this: leave it connected to the OEM stock wall outlet charger.
With it connected and powered ON, remove the battery for minute and replace.
Check the percentage and drain over the next day, and do the SAME procedure again.
Remember, the charge percentage is not an exact science, but rather an estimate by the software of the charge, based on the current power, historical drain and charging, etc. It will change...

Ipod Video 30GB will not play when it is being charged...

My new ipod will not play when it is being charged..., it keeps saying "Do not disconnect". Is it normal. If so this ***** !!! Or is there a setting I have overlooked !?
Gosh, I am a techie and I am having so many problems with this crap & iTunes. Why the fcuk can it not just copy Directory structure (which has music files, photos, etc.) as is and not have to create freakin Playlist.
Finally I found EphPod, but that thing will not do vidoes and photos.

But the iPod says "Do not disconnect" with the charging symbol !
Have you Restored the iPod?
if I eject ipod manually from the cradle or by ejecting it using iTunes. But then it stops charging.
Your USB ports shut off when the iPod is Ejected.
Here’s how to fix that.
1. On the Start menu, click Control Panel.
2. Double-click the System icon.
3. Click the Hardware tab.
4. Click Device Manager.
5. Scroll down the list of devices to the Universal Serial Bus controllers
6. Click the plus icon next to the Universal Serial Bus controllers.
7. Double-click one of the indented USB Root Hub entries.
8. Click the Power Management tab.
9. Deselect the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" option.
10. Click the OK button at the bottom of the window.
11. Restart the computer.
Also, about the playlist, if you do not create them, how will you sort or find from 1000's of music files
You can use playlists but you don’t have to.
On the iPod they are already sorted by;
Artist
Albums
Songs
Genre
Composers
EPHPod automatically creates a Playlist using the Directory name. Why can't iTunes do the same.
It doesn’t need to. See above.
You can create playlists as you want to.

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!

Very Slow Video that Does Not Fully Load on Macbook Pro

Hi,
I have a macbook pro from 2007 (Mac OS X 10.4.11) and I have never had any issues with streaming video until yesterday. I have fast internet, and I can browse quickly, but my video is recently being very slow and won't fully load. It always says 14 out of 16 things loaded or some other number when I try to play a video. I have tried resetting Safari and emptying my cache to speed it up several times with no luck. I have Safari 4.1.2. I am wondering what I need to do to get this fixed as soon as possible because there are some important videos I need to watch for classes.
Thanks so much for your help!

"I have tried resetting Safari and emptying my cache to speed it up several times with no luck. I have Safari 4.1.2."
Do you have the same problem w/streaming videos using other browsers? Suggest that you re-post over in the Safari for Mac forums as your problem is not MBP related but rather software.

Ipod Video 30GB - Will not turn on!

I see a few similar posts, but I can't find one that has a resolution.
My ipod was working fine a week ago. I put some new songs on, did the latest update then turned it off and put it way.
I go to turn it on today, and nothing. I went throught the support suggests. It won't restart, it won't connect to my computer (yes I've tired different USB ports). And of course it's past the 1 year warranty so when I called apple support they basically ditched me and told me to read up online.
HELP!

I think it was a week ago that I updated. No mods on my iPod.
I've been on the phone with a bunch of apple reps. They're all saying it's not software, that it's a hardware issues, specifically the battery. My iPods in great condition, and I don't use it nearly enough for the battery to have a problem.
I don't know. At this rate I'm probably going to have to send it in and pay the $80 for the battery to be replaced. Then if it still doesn't work I'll have proof it's not hardware.

When i plug in my 5c overnight to charge, it did not fully charge

my iPhone 5c has ios 8.1.2 the memory available is 7.8gb storage capacity is12.8gb. when I plug in the charger to charge overnight, it does not fully charge. my phone was at 40% power last night and I plugged in the charger and this morning it was at only 61% power. When I plugged it in, the battery symbol did not turn green, nor did it make the beep sound. What is wrong?

Are you using a genuine Apple charger and cable? If not, I would suspect there's a problem with either the plug or cable. Also, make sure the outlet you're using is working properly. Did a breaker blow through the night?

HT4623 Why is it taking so long to charge ipad 24 hours and not fully charged any ideas?

This ipad does not fully charge any ideas?

How are you trying to charge it? It's best charged using its supplied power brick plugged into the wall. If you're trying to charge it via USB your results will be mediocre at best since most USB ports don't put out enough power. Same results if you are using an iPhone charger for your iPad.

My ipod touch 4g does not show in Windows 7 or itunes. I've removed and reinstalled itunes, stopped and started apple mobile services and changed out cables. Ipod is charging when connected. I've also done a complete rollback to factory defaults.

My ipod touch 4g does not show in Windows 7 or itunes, I've removed and reinstalled Itunes. I've done a factory default, and I've changed out cables. The ipod shows connected but does not show.

Did you remove and reinstall all the Apple software by:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
Run this to see if it helps determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Try on another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem'
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I was using my ipod touch and it was fully charged and it shut off and it wont bring me to the home screen

i was using my ipod touch and it was fully charged and it shut off on me and when i go to charge it all it shows is the apple sign

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 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.

Locked on BLANK WHITE BRIGHT SCREEN. Brand Spankin' New iPod Video 30gb

Hi all,
I JUST opened my new iPod Video 30gb. When I hooked it up to sync and charge, its icon appeared in iTunes for just a second then disappeared. Then it locked on "do not remove" so I did a reset. Then I put in on the dock again and the same thing happened, it popped up in iTunes and my desktop for just a second then disappeared. So, I tried to reset it again. But now it will NOT reset. It is locked on a bright white blank screen. Any attempts at resetting and the iPod gives a weird chime and continues its blank bright screen. Now it will not do anything. It won't show up in iTunes, it won't show up on my Mac, it won't respond to ANY buttons on the click wheel or anywhere.
Geez, I just opened the freakin' box! And of course I can't find ANY phone numbers to get a quick answer from Apple. I've been with apple since 1984 and this is really intolerable.
PLEASE HELP!
Oh yeah, and i CANNOT restore because it can't link to my MAC

Judging by the info on your post, you're in the US. Apple's tech support number is 1-800-APL-CARE. They're open 9-9 Eastern time.
For the issue you're experiencing:
Hold down menu & select until you hear the beeping.
As soon as it beeps, hold down select and play/pause for about 10 seconds or so (it may or may not beep again).
See if you can restore it now.
If not, call Apple for tech support.
Hope this helps

Is that normal? My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min. then level battery is 68.5%. (use voice over to read battery level)

I do not understand what "My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min." means.
Also % battery is not accurate for an iPod. It fluctuates.
Maybe this will help:

The fully charged battery symbol shows up (a plug instead of a lightning bolt) when it's actually not fully charged! It also stops charging!

Did you already try to set it up "as new device" How to back up your data and set up as a new device
If this does not work, try again, this time without using the latest backup, in case it contains corrupt data, causing your problems.

Battery will not fully charge.

My battery will not fully charge anymore. Also, it seems that my phone has a hard time charging because sometimes the bolt will not show even when it is plugged in so it seems like something is loose. I am going to go to Verizon today to have them look into it. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hey SophieLouiseBacon,
Have you been able to try a different cable, it a different cable does the same thing then it is probably and issue with the port on the device.
Let us know how you make out at the store.
