5G 30G Ipod won't charge or sync

My Ipod won't charge when connected to my laptop. It does charge when plugged into my car radio transmitter and dock. When I plug it into my laptop fully charged I get a message from windows explorer asking me if I want to scan and clean it to repair any problems. I have done this. It starts to sync with itunes (still fully charged) and then I get an error message saying the disk cannot be read. When I disconnect the Ipod there is almost no charge on the battery. I have restored the Ipod through itunes and reinstalled itunes.
I have replaced the battery and charged it again but I am still having the same problems.
I have synced an ipod shuffle on the same computer with no problems.
Any help would be appreciated! thanks.

come on guys? can anybody help?
I have run the manual diagnostics and the USB cable is recognized. I let the battery completely discharge for 5 days, rebooted it up and its draining power from the usb cable to operate, but there is no software recognition (other than in diagnostics) of the fact that the cable is plugged in. In disk mode it shows charging but does not recognize it is plugged into a computer. In normal mode it does not show charging or syncing. OS X does not acknowlede the ipod exists and windows does not recognize the device (several computers, all recognize other ipods).
I'm sure this must be a software issue but i cannot restore as i cannot get the computer to recognize the ipod! Help

Old ipod won't charge

Older ipod won't charge. 30 gig, white, I've shown videos on it, so it's one of the earlier color iPods. I gave it to my mom 2 years ago and she never used it. I've tried a wall charger and plugged it into my computers, no luck. I can't get it to turn on at all, so can't reset or restore.
Thanks for any help!

Checked some identifiers on Apple website, apparently it's a 5th generation.

My iPod won't charge - on any power outlet.

My iPod won't charge - it said for a while that the battery was empty (to the point of unusable) when I plugged it in, and left it plugged in for a a couple of days and now it will switch on but the battery is empty. I have tried resetting it (menu and middle button), and I have also tried to drain the battery and charge, but it does not work. there are no apple stores where I am /no genius bar so I can't go in store - and the model is recently refurbished - I swapped it out a few months ago - so shouldn't be facing any problems. Please help!

I have also tried charging it through several computers and numerous
power outlets but none work.

Find a more powerful USB port or buy a wall-mount charger from Apple.

IPod won't work off the charger

My 4th Gen iPod won't work when it's not connected to the charger. As soon as you remove it from the power source it shuts down. I have updated to the latest iOS and it's been restored. This corrected the issue for about 24hrs then it was back to random shut down and now it won't work at all.
Suggestions or does it need to go visit an Apple Store ?

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

Please help. My ipod won't take a charge. I plug it in to the computer & it makes the sound it always does when it's connected but it will not charge. The screen is black. I have had it plugged in for 2 days. Nothing is popping up on my computer, the ipod won't turn on. I'm getting nothing.

My ipod won't charge on the ipod hifi

hello,
hope some-one here can help me
I have a 60gb video ipod and when I dock it on my ipod hifi it doesn't charge. The hifi is plugged into the wall and I have reset my ipod twice after reading that tip here on these forums, but still no luck! anyone have any other ideas that I could try out ? thanks very much if you can,
cheers,
ellis

hi Mitch,
thanks for replying.
my ipod plays beautifully in the hifi, but it won't charge. I tried your solution but no luck. not sure what is wrong. I just moved to hong kong a week ago. my ipod was bought in the us and the hifi here, but i guess that should make no difference really . the other thing that is wierd is that when i connect my computer wirelessly to the hifi is that it plays but cuts out continuosly for a few seconds then continues to play . the song actually stops so there is no "gap" jst picks up where it left off. this is kind of annoying too and I can't find a fix. if you have anyy ideas on this one too that would be great.
cheers

My 5th Gen. iPod won't charge

I recently got my iPod replaced when the screen was cracked. So I got a brand new one and a yesterday it wouldn't charge. It worked fine for about a month. I didn't get a new cable, I kept the one I had that worked fine. I plug it in and it just won't charge. I tried other sources like my iPod speaker that also worked fine before. It even plays music through it, which means I know it's connected, but it's not charging! I really do not think that it's the cables. Please help!

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- 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.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My iPod won't charge and is not recognized by my PC...

it's been two weeks that i saw my ipod blinked. (i have and ipod video, 30 gb.) the battery was draining so fast. i tried charging it. it charged but the following day, same problem. i tried reformatting it, but to no avail. i tried charging it again. but my adapter and pc won't recognize it anymore. i mean, no icons show up on the screen of my ipod. i got this ipod about a year ago, but this is the first time i encountered this problem!
i mean this is really: HELP!

I suspect that you have a completely dead battery.
i got this ipod about a year ago
If you mean 11 months, a battery replacement is under warranty but $30 shipping and handling. If you mean 13 months, a battery replacement is $59 + $7 shipping.

IPod won't charge with car charger or on stereo dock..

A couple months ago, my iPod Nano (1st gen) stopped charging with the car charger and my stereo dock for no apparent reason. Is there some sort of setting that got switched in iTunes that prevents it from charging from other sources, besides the computer?
It charges just fine when I connect it to my PC...but it just doesn't charge when I connect it to the car charger, or my stereo dock...
Thanks in advance.

No, iTunes probably wouldn't be affecting your iPod's charging from anything but a computer.
Have you tried resetting your iPod?
Press and hold the Menu and Select (center) buttons together for about 10 seconds.
If that doesn't seem to work (you might need to try it quite a few times), try taking a look at this:
