Ipod wire not working?

So starting around December, my ipod would be so difficult to connect. When I'm trying to charge it and I move my ipod, it would unconnect and reconnect even though the wire is still attached to the ipod. I thought it was an ipod wire problem so I bought another one. However, it is still happening. Finally, the wire I was using said it was not certified and it doesn't support my ipod. I'm not really sure what's going on, I don't think it's a wire problem anymore. Is it a problem with my ipod? This ipod is the newest generation by the way. I got the ipod in February 2013.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. Non-Apple cables have a al ot problems but even Apple ones fail.
- 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.

IPod (5G) and iPod (Classic) Not Working

_*iPod 5G:*_
I bought the iPod 5G 2-3years back ago. It was working all fine. Few months back I accidentally dropped the iPod. After this, the iPod was not working at all. None of the buttons works. But i am still able to put in on HOLD or even restart/put to disk mode. I am using it as a 80gb External Hard Drive.
*iPod Classic (120GB):*
I bought this iPod from Bangkok in December 2008. Later, in March, used to restart by itself and freeze suddenly when a track is being played. I had some tracks on it then. Whenever i try to play any track it showed the time 00:00 and started to play that particular track after this 'click' sort of sound from the inside, possibly from the hard drive. It even freezes during the RESTART process. So I had to bring it to a stable condition by restarting it during it is being restarted. My computer is not able to identify it. I have tried to restore it a couple of times now. Sometimes, I am able to get through the RESTORE process but most of the time my mac/ipod freeze together and wont come back to normal until and unless the usb wire is pulled out forcefully. Well, whenever iTunes recognizes it, I try to sync music. I have about 200 tracks in this one playlist. Whenever i try to sync it, the ipod freezes together with my mac. The sync process stops without copying all the tracks to my ipod. After that the screen goes black and then comes back with a dull APPLE logo displayed.
+Information on iPod Shuffle:+
My dad is going to Bangkok tomorrow. I asked him to get me a Shuffle. The new one that talks. I use the ipod mainly in my car (using the aux). There are no buttons on the Shuffle as everything in situated in cable of the ear phones. How am i going to use the controls if my connect the AUX (from my car's stereo) to my iPod? I wont be able to change tracks, pause or even shut down the ipod. Another thing is that whenever the ear phone plug is disconnected from the ipod, while it is playing a track, the track gets automatically paused.
This is very long, consumed a lot of time for you to read/for me to write. I guess making it longer would help me to kill time as I am running a ZERO OUT format on the 2nd ipod I own. :P
Thank You,
Samin

The classic bought in December 2008 would still be covered by warranty. Have you arranged for service for it?

Downloaded Update Software now Ipod is not working - Please Help

I downloaded Update Software onto Ipod and now Ipod is not working. It is stating "Itunes detected an Ipod in recovery mode. You must restore this ipod before it can be used in Itunes". Here's the deal I did that now the Ipod just blinks the circle with the line through it and says do not disconnect. Nothing happens. Has the new software corrupted my Ipod? Can anyone Help

iPod is in recovery mode.

My daughter's ipod is not working and says it needs to be plugged into a computer. Can she sync to someone elses mac?

My daughter is away at camp and ipod is not working and says it needs to be connected to itunes. She does not have her laptop with her. Can she sync to her itunes on someone else's mac?

Yes, when she plugs it in to another person's mac, tell it transfer purchases, then authorize the computer by going to store, and click authroize computer. If the iPod is in recovery mode
Then I don't think she can have her music apps etc. on there after she plugs it into the computer. If it just needs a charge
When iTunes opens on the computer, quit it, and do not let the iPod sync with the computer, just answer no or ignore to any questions asking if you want to sync.

TS3694 I tried updating my iPod, and ever since it has not worked at all. If I hold in the lock & home button, it will tell me to plug it into iTunes. Once I do that, it says it will restore but every time, restoring it fails. My iPod is not working at al

I tried updating my iPod, and ever since it has not worked at all. If I hold in the lock & home button, it will tell me to plug it into iTunes. Once I do that, it says it will restore but every time, restoring it fails. My iPod is not working at all, and I really have no idea what to do. It is just a black screen, and occasionally the white apple will appear as if it were turning on, but it won't turn on. I just need some suggestions on what to do!

Try:
- 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 iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipod is not working at all when i plug it into my laptop i get an itunes sign and below that plugin sign

My ipod is not working at all when i plug it into my laptop i get an itunes sign and below that plugin sign also it says new software found however it first asks me to install the software disc which i dont have it with me now can you plz check for the same and reply asap...please thanks.

The link I and Ingo provided included:
1. Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
That is more than quicktime and iTunes. Follow all the instruction in the link for removing and reinstalling the Apple software.

One more to the list of people that suddenly the Ipod is not working anymore. It does not turn on, I read some of the ideas, I can see that is something that comes from apple somebody could solve it or should we unitforces to demand a solution from apple?

My Ipod is not working, It was working find and suddenly it does not turn on anymore. It does not responde when it is plugged in. I can see it is not the first case, somebody has received an answer that works? Some similarities in the ipods? thanks for your help.

Please Help. Ipod Screen Not Working

My screen on my ipod does not work any more.
I have tried restoring/updating it.....everything!!
problem is this is my second due to a faulty battery on the first which apple exchanged free of charge for me so I ma not sure if I am entitled to another ipod or what!!!
If anyone knows how to get the screen working or about 2nd exchanges then please help,
Thanks,
Louise x

If you truly have tried resetting/restoring, then it's time for service. Is it still under warranty, because if so, it won't matter that you have had one exchange already?

IPod Classic not working in car but works everywhere else. Troubleshooting?

My iPod is not working with my Infiniti iPod jack but all other iPods work fine with the in-car system. My iPod synchs fine to my Mac and to an external stereo player through the connector on the bottom of the unit. So it looks like both units work fine with any iPod, but only my iPod will not work with the car while it does work with other connections. How can I troubleshoot this? Thanks for any help.
BTW, the Infniti is a 2008 G37 and the dealer just put a brand new unit in it and the same thing happened. The iPod is a 2008 80GB Classic.
Heeeelp!!!!

I have the same problem with my infiniti G37. Soo frustrating!

There is no way to remotely track or disable an iPod nano, either for you or Apple. As it can't connect to the Internet on its own, Find my iPhone isn't available for it.

This is a user-to-user support site not a place to reach techs. You can make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and see if you can do an out-of-warranty replacement or you can use a 3rd party repair site.
